In this article, we deal with the connections and relations established by the American countries with the International Labor Organization in the interwar period. The framework of the relationship was set in two parallel instances: at the International Conferences of ILO member countries and the Conferences of American Countries, also known as Pan American Conferences. Those meetings took place in parallel and with their times. While the ILO was a recognition of situations and problems common to Latin American countries, the Pan American Conferences incorporated the issue of Labor and workers into the topics to be discussed. Here we deal with the processes of mutual recognition and the need to establish common behavioral guidelines for Latin America and within international organizations.
