The Latin America and Caribbean Sites of Conscience Network unites a wide range of groups and themes across Central and South America as well as the Caribbean. The Network focuses on building the capacity of sites remembering periods of internal conflict and state violence in order to preserve the memory of what happened during these periods. Together they use this memory to influence contemporary political culture and work with young people to prevent the emergence of authoritarian systems in future generations. The Network also provides a collective voice for public engagement on behalf of memory work across the region.

The Network is committed to promoting democratic governance and respect for fundamental freedoms in Latin America and the Caribbean through the recovery, construction, and dissemination of collective memories about serious violations of fundamental freedoms and those who resisted them in both the past and present to achieve truth, accountability, redress, and measures of non-repetition.
