Lima, October 31 (RHC) -- Ministers of Education of Latin America and the Caribbean highlighted Cuba's contribution to the eradication of illiteracy and the continued academic development of youths and adults in the region.

During the first day of a regional meeting of regional education authorities in Peru's capital, Lima, delegates recognized the decisive role played by Cuba's “Yes I Can” literacy method, that has brought over eight million people from under the shadow of ignorance.

Cuba's Education Minister Ena Elsa Velázquez recalled that the literacy program of the Caribbean nation has been successfully implemented in more than thirty countries, including Argentina, Venezuela, Mexico, Ecuador, Bolivia and several African and Oceanic countries. It has been also recently introduced in the Spanish city of Seville, in its first test in European territory.

The ministerial meeting in Lima seeks to draw the educational strategy post-2015 for Latin America and the Caribbean, as part of the regional drive to reduce poverty and inequality.
