They will reflect on the significant progress and great experience in the development of new initiatives for School Health Promotion in Latin America. At this time we wish to take stock of the achievements and outline plans and actions for the future. Some of the questions and reflections of this webinar are:

  1. How relevant is it to outline the regional agenda in School Health Promotion (PSE) at the regional level?
  2. What affirmative steps are being taken at this time to strengthen PSE at the regional level?
  3. What should be the political, structural and programmatic priorities to configure the regional PES agenda?
