Washington, D.C.: Suma Veritas has been formally admitted into the Organization of American States (OAS), following a unanimous vote by the Permanent Council in Washington, D.C.

This milestone marks a significant step in the international trajectory of Suma Veritas, reinforcing its commitment to advancing women’s leadership, peacebuilding, sustainable development, and regional cooperation across the Americas.

By joining the OAS — the principal multilateral forum of the hemisphere — Suma Veritas strengthens its capacity to contribute to high-level dialogue, policy discussions, and collaborative initiatives aimed at reducing inequality, promoting inclusive growth, and fostering democratic values throughout the region.

Founded in Buenos Aires, Suma Veritas has developed programs focused on empowering women entrepreneurs, advancing gender equity, and building bridges between civil society, public institutions, and international actors. Its work integrates leadership development, education for peace, and strategic cooperation across borders.

Admission to the OAS reflects both the credibility of Suma Veritas’ institutional work and its growing role within regional and global conversations on women, development, and social transformation.

“This is not only an institutional achievement,” said Dr. Graciela De Oto, Founder and President of Suma Veritas. “It is a commitment to serve at a higher level of responsibility — to amplify women’s voices, strengthen democratic dialogue, and contribute to a more inclusive future for the Americas.”

As a member of the OAS framework, Suma Veritas will engage in consultative processes, contribute expertise to thematic discussions, and collaborate with member states and civil society organizations to advance shared regional goals.

This historic entry represents a new chapter — one defined not only by presence, but by purposeful impact.
