That the Parliament celebrates the work of the Latin American Community Association of Edinburgh (LACAE) in preserving and promoting Latin American culture across Edinburgh and Scotland; recognises LACAE’s vital role in building bridges between the Latin American diaspora and the wider Scottish community; commends its work in bringing together communities from across all Latin American countries under a shared celebration of culture and identity, while continuing to expand engagement with both established and underrepresented groups; acknowledges what it sees as the enriching contribution of the Latin American community to Scotland’s cultural life; recognises LACAE’s collaboration with other community groups and charities in its ambition to develop into a national hub celebrating diverse cultures, and calls on the Scottish Government to continue supporting grassroots multicultural organisations that strengthen community cohesion and celebrate Scotland’s diversity.
