The Regional Bureau of Education for Latin America and the Caribbean (OREALC/UNESCO Santiago) is to provide support for two sub-regional consultation meetings with the aim of making advances in the preparation of the final monitoring and evaluation report of the UN Decade of Education for Sustainable Development (2005-2014). The meetings will contribute to the creation of a new global framework defining follow-up activities for the Decade, and will add to preparations underway for the world conference to be held in Japan in 2014. The second of the two consultations will be held in San José, Costa Rica, 16-17 April 2013. An online consultation process is being implemented in parallel with these events, open to anyone with an interest in ESD. The website (https://secure.unesco.org/survey/index.php?sid=74793&lang=en) will be open to contributions until 31 March 2013.
