The past months have been full of excitement, as we organized the 2nd edition of the Happy Cities Festival, where we invited the whole community to discuss what makes the city a happy place for all of us.
During that festival, youth and specially our girls had a special role, as they participated in all of the talks and round-tables and then gave their feedback to the Local Government General Secretary and the head of the Rosario National University. This experience was truly empowering as they had a voice and a platform to share their thoughts and vision.
Also, after the Rio Olympics, we received an inspiring visit as the Gold medallist Cecilia Carranza visited the girls of Hockey Junior & Hockey Power and spent a few hours chatting about topics that interest them: what is success, what is happiness, how to overcome obstacles and the importance of having dreams and following them. She taught us an invaluable as she said that if you want to go fast, then go alone, but if you want to go far, then go with a team.
We invite you all to become part of our team so that we can all go further!
