The
Department of International Affairs (DIA) acts as the institutional
liaison between the OAS and the agencies and entities of the United Nations and
Inter-American systems, as well as other international organizations. In this
capacity, the DIA identifies areas of common interest and potential synergies,
promotes and coordinates the development of cooperation strategies, and
generally fosters and maintains relations with international organizations.
Through high-level and working-level dialogues and meetings the DIA facilitates
the interaction between the officials of the OAS General Secretariat and their
counterparts at other international organizations in order to benefit from each
other’s experience, resources and best practices.
In order to enhance the visibility of the Organization and increase its
interaction with other organizations, the DIA coordinates the participation of
OAS officials in conferences, thematic debates, seminars and meetings organized
by international organizations across the world.
As part of its outreach efforts, the DIA provides international organizations
with regular updates on the region and the programs of the Organization, as well
as on OAS activities that are of particular interest to specific organizations.
