The Caribbean Community celebrated 25 years of bilateral relations and the technical cooperation it receives from Argentina.

At the 47th General Assembly of the Organization of American States (OAS), held in Cancun, Mexico, Argentina’s minister of foreign relations, Jorge Faurie, held a working meeting with his counterparts from the Caribbean Community (CARICOM).

At the meeting, the foreign ministers addressed aspects of technical cooperation such as healthcare, cultural industries, education, tourism promotion, water resources, support for small and medium-sized enterprises, and agroindustry-related issues. All parties agreed to continue to work together as partners for development and to focus on the UN 2030 Agenda.

The Report on South-South Cooperation in Ibero-America 2016 from the Ibero-American General Secretariat (SEGIB) highlights Argentina’s role as a technical cooperation provider in the Caribbean.
