Help me: Trip to XIX World Festival of Youth and Students
My Travel Story
Hi! My name is Alonso Gamboa, from Costa Rica, I'm student of Sociology at Universidad de Costa Rica, and Political Economy at UNED. I'm member of Humanist Movement, I collaborate for two Non-Government Organizations whose working for peace, the first one is Centro de Amigos para la Paz, and secod one is Servicio de Paz y Justicia, the latter has a Nobel Peace Prize.
As the official video this is a great opportunity to share with thousand students, learning from their experiences, culture, education system, environmental care, politics for youths, and all about of their dreams.
I really want to replicate all kind of things that can work in Costa Rica. Currently I'm living at a poor township (Alajuelita) and I want to make a change, first of all, to the children and youths, actually, I am certified by the municipality to give workshops to families, but I feel I need to know even more.
Besides this experience is essential for increase my career and for developing my leadership. I want to learn more about World War II, how is the development of society in their daily actions, analyze architecture, feel their society, ask about everything.
I am already appointed as delegate for Costa Rica, I need buy the ticket to travel to Russia. I have the support of my professor of Political Economy, Marino Marozzi, who is one of the best economists in the country; and also I have the support of Ana Cecilia Jiménez, President of ACODEHU (Asociación Costarricense de Derechos Humanos).
As addicional information, this will be my first time out of my continent (America), so I really appreciate each dollar that you donate for this, my project of life.
The Festival is supported by the UN Institutions.
