The Rio Group (named
after the Isla de Contadora, in Panamá, where the first meeting was held in 1983
towards a practical solution to end the Civil Wars in Central America at the
moment) is the most most important permanent mechanism of political consultation
and concertation in the South American region conformed by Latin American and
some Caribbean states. It was created on 18 December 1986 in the Brazilian city
of Rio de Janeiro by means of the Declaration of Rio de Janeiro, signed by
Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, Mexico, Panama, Peru, Uruguay and Venezuela (the
members of the
Contadora
Group and the
Contadora Support Groupor Lima Group). To some extent it was perceived by
some observers as an alternative body to the Organization of American States
during the Cold War, since that body was dominated by the United States. The Rio
Group does not have a secretariat or permanent body, and instead relies on
yearly summits of heads of states. From 1990 it changed the name from Grupo de
Contadora to Grupo de Río.

The Rio Group may have a flag, featuring the
logo on a white horizontal background, and I say "May have" because that's
the pattern that most of the fellow organizations.
