Colombia Resuena

The generation leading the change

What is it?

Together with the National Endowment for Democracy (NED), a project was implemented to empower youth as agents of change to build a more participatory, inclusive and collaborative country. Efforts focused on participation in the 2022 elections, minimizing the effects of polarization and misinformation in Colombia, and subsequently, learning to advocate in the local development plans of the cities of Bogota and Cali.
