Dear friends: We are very pleased to share with you the 5th issue of our e-bulletin InfoDiálogo. We have included a summary of our support work during the last months in Argentina, Bolivia, Guatemala, Mexico, Nicaragua and Saint Kitts & Nevis. The central topic of this issue is the evaluation of dialogue processes, so you will find a summary of the Workshop on Evaluation of Democratic Dialogues carried out in partnership with The Carter Center. As part of the follow-up activities for this workshop, the preparation of a regional frame for dialogue evaluation is in progress. We also present to you some reflections on the challenge of evaluating dialogue processes and on the relation between dialogue and power. Warm regards, Elena Díez-Pinto |
In 2001, the UNDP Regional Bureau for Latin America and the Caribbean (RBLAC) established the Democratic Dialogue Regional Project based in Guatemala. Since then, this project constitutes an active service instrument to dialogue initiatives promoted by the country offices of Latin America and the Caribbean. It develops, disseminates and applies diverse social technologies to support conflict prevention and management efforts, as well as consensus-building initiatives in the region. It compiles and systematizes experiences, lessons learned and good practices, provides specific technical support and capacity-building to country needs, and establishes partnerships with other regional and world institutions committed to democratic dialogue.
