Atlas of Cultural Heritage and Infrastructure of the Americas.
The cultural heritage of Latin America and the Caribbean unites and distinguishes us as a region. It also represents a strategic resource for sustainable development with conditions of social inclusion, access and participation in terms of equality. It is a regional and national identity factor that gives us a presence in the international arena with a voice and a face of our own.
Atlas of Cultural Heritage and Infrastructure of the Americas.
The Atlas of Cultural Heritage and Infrastructure of the Americas: Jamaica, represents one of the first steps of an innovative tool that will provide comparable information continental-wide. Thanks to this innovative system, in-depth data will be available for the different countries of the region on a broad range of topics. The Atlas will therefore be a fundamental tool for decision making, and for uncovering the potential of the Latin America and Caribbean cultural heritage.
