In the late 90s, the Programa de Promocion de la Refomra Educativa (PREAL) in Latin American and the Caribbean organized two working groups-one for Latin America and one for Central America- to discuss the serious education deficiencies offered to children throughout the region. Brazil can be proud of some education achievements in the last decades. Enrollment growth, increase in school access, and the implementation of evaluation systems were implemented. However, when comparing to other developing countries, Brazil’s current situation is very worrying.
