Guatemalan Government
Reports on Social Programs
GUATEMALA - The implementation of social
programs, their achievements and broadening
constitutes a central part of the second
government report presented by President
Alvaro Colom.
The three-chapter document includes details
of actions to face the effects of the
international crisis.
It also explains how it was possible to keep
constitutional order despite protests of
sectors interested in sacking the president
in the wake of the killing of lawyer Rodrigo
Rosenberg.
Entitled "We are Making it Together," the
report also has an outline of government
plans with an agenda based on strategic
programs of solidarity, governability,
productivity and regionality.
It also highlights free education and health
and a broadened coverage in these fields.
According to the report, a main achievement
in 2009 was the establishment of a new
institutional framework based on the
implementation of the law of the National
Security System.
As part of the interaction between the
government and the people, the report shows
commitments made in implementing the program
Gobernando con la Gente (Governing with the
People), as well as debate on different
issues countrywide. |
