The Regional Bureau for Education in Latin America and the Caribbean (OREALC/UNESCO Santiago) with headquarters in Santiago, Chile, was created in 1963 for the purpose of assisting the region’s 37 Member States in defining strategies for the development of their education policies.
Specifically, the work carried out by OREALC/UNESCO Santiago finds expression in the production and dissemination of information and knowledge, the formulation of public policy guidelines, the provision of advisory services and technical support to the countries of the region, and the promotion of cooperation among the governments, universities and research centres, members of civil society, the private sector and international organisations.
