Good morning Pan Americans…

The National Office of the Martí Program in Cuba, together with other academic and cultural organizations in Mexico, the United States, and Cuba dedicated to the study of José Martí’s life of action and ideas, and the Club Martiano in America III <[e-mail]>: hereby invites The PANAMERSA audience in AMERICA I, II, III & IV (a commercial integration reality for Our America Inspired by the Ideas of Martí (in Spanish, Una realidad de integración commercial Martiana para Nuestra América, ALMA or Soul)), to attend an important event for all without frontiers on May 17th-18th 2009 known as:


The First International conference on, José MARTÍ- Benito JUÁREZ- Abraham LINCOLN, In the Soul of our America…“El ALMA de Nuestra América”, to take place in Monterrey, Mexico, on May 17-18, 2009.

The gathering will bring together members of educational and cultural institutions, as well as others who study the work of José Martí, Benito Juárez, and Abraham Lincoln, from Mexico, the United States, Canada, Cuba, and other parts of the America and the World. It will be a dialog AMONG NATIONS AND CULTURES SPANNING TWO CENTURIES, not excluding any current of thought sharing the event’s goals.


Among the purposes of the conference are:

1. To give continuity to the process of synthesizing the ideas José Martí developed in his time, which include the best of universal ideas aimed at building a better world.

2. To take up and systematize the contributions made in the age of Martí, who studied and championed the contributions of Juárez, Lincoln, and other universal thinkers.

3. To consider the relevance of Martí’s ideas in the economic, political, social, cultural, philosophical, and pedagogical arenas, ideas that become much more relevant in the context Our America is living through today.

4. To help restore the most outstanding critical thought of Our America leading to united action, based on the philosophical principle that the most important category of culture is justice.

5. To understand, through collective discussion and analysis, the crisis the world confronts today, marked by poverty, marginalization, social exclusion, violence, and the plundering of natural resources, which threaten the existence of the human species.

Guided by Martí’s statement, “To be educated is the only way to be free,” the principal goal of the conference is to promote an Alternative for Our America Inspired by the Ideas of Martí (in Spanish, Alternativa Martiana para Nuestra América — ALMA, or soul).

The International Conference will include lectures and plenary sessions. It will be held at the Autonomous University of Nuevo León and the José Martí Institute for Higher Education.
