The workshop on Social Policies and International Cooperation, titled, "Challenges for the Ministries of Social Development and the Inter-American Social Protection Network," concluded today in Brasilia, Brazil. It was coordinated by the Department of Social Development and Employment of the Organization of American States (OAS) and the Ministry of Social Development and the Fight against Hunger of Brazil.

The meeting’s agenda included themes like the theoretical aspects of international cooperation with regard to the spread of social policies; the presentation of national and sub-regional experiences in this issue; and the systematization of cooperation mechanisms, tools, and transfer methods.
