This seminar was organised by the Social Development Division of ECLAC in collaboration with the International Labour Organization (ILO) and the Pan American Health Organization (PAHO/WHO) and in partnership with the German Cooperation and the European Union’s Transitional Development Facility Project,1 and was held on 30 and 31 August and 1 September 2022. In its second version, the Regional Seminar focused on providing a space of dialogue and reflection on social security systems in the region, with a attention on diagnoses, challenges and strategic orientations for reform processes and restructuring of pension and health systems. As a backdrop, there is an uncertain context of recovery and the need to consolidate full guarantees for the exercise of social rights in the countries of the region.
