The "Human Right Initiatives" program of the Latin America and Caribbean Bureau of A.I.D. provides support to regional initiatives to promote wider observance of political and civil rights in Latin American countries. This program also supports PVOs carrying out human-rights related activities, including the education of citizens on their civic/political rights and responsibilities. Based on the results of a feasibility study assessing the potential to bring these organizations together in a workshop environment, a workshop on human rights resources was held in Antigua, Guatemala, from March 10-17, 1979. This paper presents the proceedings (and evaluates the results) of this workshop entitled "Creatively Linking Latin American Resources." Representatives from 12 social-civic education organizations in seven Latin American countries met to exchange information about their respective current and potential education programs and related problems; to identify human, organizational, institutional, and financial resources available for meeting current and future program needs; and to discuss and practice communication, problem-solving, and other organizational skills which might strength
