Organización Latinoamericana de Energía
The OLADE is an intergovernmental organization created within the context of the
international energy crisis of the early seventies, whose scope and impact was
analyzed by the Latin America and the Caribbean countries. These countries
lacked energy policies and needed to handle this crisis. Thus, they began an
intense political mobilization process that came to an end on November 2, 1973
with the signing of the Lima Agreement, the constituent instrument of the
Organization, ratified by 26 countries in Latin America and the Caribbean.
Its flag is white with its logo in the middle of the flag, consisted of its blue
abbreviation and its full Spanish name under it.
