My Journey Towards the Defense of Human Dignity
[su_tabs active=”2″][su_tab title=”English”] Many times in our daily lives we have surely heard people say phrases like “I almost lost my dignity” or “How could you think of doing that, don’t you have any dignity?” I must admit that at some point I have also said these phrases, believing that it was possible to lose […]
The ELC on Women’s Health and Rights exceeded my expectations
[su_tabs active=”2″][su_tab title=”English”] As a participant in several Emerging Leaders Conferences, I expected a high level, an excellent experience and, above all, a lot of acquired new knowledge.

Learning to Understand Myself and Others
“What to do during the holiday?” Most of us will probably say, ‘rest, do nothing.’ Enjoying idle time would have also been my initial answer since I’ve been too busy doing office and college tasks over the past few months. Fortunately, reality turned out differently. I ventured to step out of my comfort zone and try […]
“Summer Paradise”
I was recently selected for the World Youth Alliance Asia Pacific (WYAAP) 2019 Summer Camp program. I was truly excited to visit the Philippines, a rapidly developing country in the South-east Asian region. Reveries and expectations filled my mind while waiting for the dates to arrive. I remember singing the song, Summer Paradise in front […]
