MiCultura invites to participate in the calls to celebrate the Bicentennial of Central America

The Ministry of Culture (MiCultura) invites designers, composers and other graphic and music arts professionals to participate in three competitions, organized by the SICA General Secretariat with the support of the European Union, to celebrate the Bicentennial of Central American Independence, as well as the 35 years of the Esquipulas Peace Agreements and 30 years of the Central American Integration System (SICA).

With this contest, the Central American Integration System (SICA) aims to promote greater citizen and artistic links to the Central American region, to the process of integration, through art and culture with the aim that, from Central and Dominican Republic, we give the world our full artistic and cultural potential, all inspired by our culture, traditions, phrases, modestes, typical silver, and patriotic symbols.

That's why Panama, through MiCultura, echoes these initiatives and appeals to interested parties to participate in these convocations with an Isuptima (Isotypes) to design an icon for the region, as well as some representative stickers from Central America and Dominican Republic and a musical composition.

About SICA

The Central American Integration System (SICA) is the institutional framework for the integration of the Central American region, established by the States of Guatemala, El Salvador, Honduras, Nicaragua, Costa Rica and Panama. Subsequently, they became full members of Belize in 2000 and from 2013 onwards, the Dominican Republic.

The establishment of the SICA was established on December 13, 1991 and was supported by the General Assembly of the Organization of the United Nations (UN), by its Resolution A / 48 L of December 10, 1993, with the Tegucigalpa Protocol duly registered with it and enabling it to be invoked internationally and also enabling the regional organs and institutions of the SICA to engage with the United Nations system.

Its fundamental goal was to achieve the integration of Central America as a region of peace, freedom, democracy and development, firmly supported by respect for and protection and promotion of human rights.
