Therefore, this action has become one of the main focus areas of the Ibermuseums Program, fostering and recognizing the educational capacity of museums and cultural heritage as a strategy for transforming social reality.

An expressive number of projects show the creativity and vigor of the educational areas of museums, especially from Argentina, Brazil, Bolivia, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Ecuador, El Salvador, Spain, Guatemala, Mexico, Peru, Portugal and Uruguay .
