Through ADI, an initiative promoted by CIDOB, the Ibero-American General Secretariat (SEGIB) and the Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC), with the support of various sponsoring companies, it is intended to encourage academic debate along with the political debate on diverse issues crucial for the region. Through a rigorous analysis of the social, economic and political reality carried out by academics, public policymakers and other key actors in the development process in Latin America, the aim is to offer recommendations that make economic growth compatible with well-being of the majorities. This publication constitutes the fifth volume of the series and is the result of the willingness of the participating institutions to disseminate, as much as possible, the ideas and discussions that emerged in the seminar. Its reading is a fundamental element to understand the current state of education in the region, as well as the possibilities that exist in this area to continue advancing in inclusion and development.
