In Latin America and the Caribbean we are talented and skilled. We are the land of opportunities. We take action.

Families rebuilding their homes after disasters in Haiti. People using sustainable and inclusive transportation in Ecuador. A comprehensive care program for mothers and children that has saved lives in Argentina.

Latin America and the Caribbean is full of examples like these. We are strong and creative in a region that never stops moving forward.

#WeTakeAction. We work together to promote education, health, inclusion and resilience in the face of climate change.

The Nacer/Sumar Program played a pivotal role in dramatically lowering infant mortality rates in Argentina. From 2003 to 2022, there was a 50% reduction in infant mortality. In 2021, the infant mortality rate hit an all-time low of 8 per 1,000 live births. Moreover, the maternal mortality rate dropped by one percentage point to 3.4, aligning closely with rates in developed nations.

The Quito Metro stands out for improving the way the city moves and also for its inclusive vision: 40% of its workers are women, from executives to drivers. We work with Ecuador to challenge stereotypes and promote gender equality in the transportation sector.

In the Pehuenche community of El Avellano, women protect the native forest and produce flour, oil, and roasted hazelnuts. Their work not only preserves a vital ecosystem ¡ª it also helps Chile reduce its carbon emissions, securing resources to continue fostering sustainable incomes.

Thanks to projects like this, Chile received 5 million dollars for cutting 1 million tons of emissions. Discover how caring for the forest becomes life, energy, and opportunity for communities.

A region that never stops

From Mexico to Argentina, we are a region that never stops. People grow and reinvent themselves by learning through innovation, while protecting the environment.

In Latin America and the Caribbean, #WeTakeAction to create more opportunities for all.
