This week has been filled with eye-opening, insightful, and inspiring presentations!!!
We got to hear from the UNCHR: the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees and VVOB: a Belgian organization that works in partnership with Ecuador's Ministry of Education to strengthen the education system here in Ecuador.
As the employees of both organizations discussed their work - their passion for human rights and equality, determination to make a difference, and commitment to their work shone through. It was so beautiful to hear about the incredible work going on in our world, and gives me hope that through working together, towards worthwhile causes, we can make a difference.
I am thoroughly enjoying all of our presentations here in Ecuador, in addition to our work in the schools. I am getting such an incredible perspective of work 'on the ground level' by being in the classroom as well as the structural and political challenges that exist, by hearing from these various organizations. I am so excited to learn more!
