A regional capacity building workshop will take place in Santiago, Chile on 4 May, informing civil society from Latin America and the Caribbean on the post-2015 development agenda negotiations and the High-level Political Forum on sustainable development (HLPF) and provide guidance on how to engage in these processes.

The workshop aims to provide civil society representatives with the tools and knowledge to engage effectively with the processes that will determine the future sustainable development agenda. To facilitate participation in this capacity building session, a limited number of participants from the Latin American and Caribbean region are being funded to attend the event.

The workshop is being organized by the Economic and Social Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC) and UN DESA’s Division for Sustainable Development. It will take place in the margins of the First Meeting of the Negotiating Committee on Principle 10, which will also be open for civil society participation.
