stop a moment and let’s give it to him
something to the person that we have next
see you in pairs please and we
we face face to face with the person
that we have next but has not yet
fact that you have to give many
which they are giving them hugs but
I have not told him yet
well then looking at the person in front
We are going to put our hands in front
in his arms and the person does the same
with us we are going to stare
very well very well and then we are going to
look at that human being that we have at
front of being wonderful that we have at
front that soon changed from knowing what
that we already knew but let’s see what
let’s look at it fixedly and we’ll say
please repeat after me you do not
you are to blame for the face you have
once again please
you are not to blame for the face that
you have and now they say this but you
You are to blame for the face you put on
smiles and now if we can give
embracing milestone that you would give to your
city in the year 2011
I had no idea what I could
give to my city
the black university of
economy in the icesi and I went to
united states a year and a half
learn English to walk and I even thought
to stay there because I eat a lot
people who leave the country think that
soon in this city because there are not
opportunities that he does not want then
I thought to arm but for different
reasons I turned and when I turned
He knew English had a title
undergraduate but I had no job
so, well, yes, all these years
You already know English but nothing
you have silver
then one of those days having lunch with
my dad and dad tells me laura today
they went to the theater because my dad
theater director some people to
Tell me about a citizen movement
that is called have one day I the truth
I do not know very well what it is about
but they are going to meet this Saturday at
3 in the afternoon in a salsa disco
well known in Cali
I’m going to talk about that and I’ve
put without dye or chao I have nothing
what to do then if we go then I left
to tintín from or at three in the afternoon and
I meet with a group of
few crazy because they say they are going to be
100 or more positive actions in a day
in the city and I said but like that
where are the people where is the
silver how to achieve that
it turns out that we started doing a
lot of workshops creator josh a
look for people and with all that passion with
which they speak as I also
I believed the story and said, well, let’s go
do it and we talk to universities with
private companies public companies
convincing them to do on May 9
of 2013 the 100 or more positive actions
for this city and we achieved in 2013
against all the forecasts do 107
positive actions for lime and it is therefore we
we met again in 2015 and we achieved
117 shares and in 2017 on 21
October that was recently we achieved
130 positive actions for this city
reaching 20 of the 22 municipalities of Cali
[Music]
but good that I chicken them to say of this
of this do volunteering because this
it is a volunteer many things
he learned many things from me that soon
I would not have achieved in another job
I learned things that I did not know that
I had and I learned them by doing this
for example an economist does not put it
to make newsletters do not put it
to talk and media can not do it
emergency plans or get
permission to make events in a
public space manage resources a
lots of things I learned doing
volunteering and that surely not
worked never again should have
done and I learned it here in addition to
learn things I learned things from the
people with whom I worked in 2013
in 2015 and in 2017
in the three versions of 100 in a day
I rated them for example that in those
moments where one thinks that everything is
lost because there is no weight
there is always a person who tells you
we are going to do this and we will achieve it
to be persistent we learned
a lot of things about teamwork
we learned leadership we learned from
how to convince another how to talk
in public and in addition to what I
I learned and learned from my classmates
I also learned from those people who
they said to do positive actions
positive actions that not only
they were in Cali or in Colombia but in the
world because this citizen movement
it is global
this gentleman for example in santiago de
Chile
taught me to break schemes the lord
I spent every day for the same
street watching the same people and I was
as boring and said one day I’m going to
go out with a pool of balls
I’m going to do in the pool and I’m going to
invite all the people who pass
down that boring street to which
put me in the pool with me and we started
to chat to meet a stranger and every
ball those had a message that I had
a theme then suddenly
they talked about the policy environment
It depends on the ball you take out
you started a conversation with a
complete weird in the cache and
we broke the fires and that day that street
It was not so boring for that man
example in hong kong a city that does not
I did but so they have a day to
that 100 positive actions if in theory
everything is solved because in theory the
efficient government because I tell you that
they do not need to cover gaps or
plant trees or parks
they need to improve those relationships
interpersonal because sometimes that
individualism and selfishness the day to
day what I’m doing makes
that I forget those who live with me
then those guys who did
they took pictures of those places of
hong kong that nobody knew or that very
few people knew because they were not
tourist and began to show
to those people from hong kong
well I hear you know this place of hong
kong that you do not know is wonderful
and if they did it with a smile
achieving two things the first to break that
ice and the second one that will reconnect
with the city
this gentleman for example in toronto
glen
very worried about climate change
He said
today I’m going to disguise myself as garbage and
I ‘m going to show people all the
amount of solid waste that
we generate daily and I’m going to show you
how each one of us can be
a little more aware of that amount
of solid waste that we generate and
help conserve the environment
for example in Brazil these are
photographs of street dwellers
street dwellers we see all the
days in these cities and that sometimes
they turn us into street furniture
It sounds horrible but that’s how we go through
there we see it every day and we do not
we realize that he is a human being like
us subject of rights that has
the same needs us that
have problems because you are in
the street not because they do not have money there
inhabitants of stratum 6 street there
street dwellers who are in the
street because they have problems
relatives because they have problems with
drug use not because they do not have
silver
then we forget those stories
what’s behind and this action in brazil
does not show how to make visible what
invisible like seeing them again
eyes like other people equal to
us with a lot of needs and
with a lot of stories
this action in Bogota in 2012
a car bomb that word so terrible
in our country with the connotation
violent but this car bomb was very
particular because this car pump
when it exploded the pump does not generate
injured did not generate dead people but
I had a message
so reconciliation showing us
that this word so difficult to
our country can be pretty these
children for example in bogota
his parents were super worried
because in the corner of your house your
children every day
they looked like pedestrians passing by
between the cars and they did not use the zebra or
how the cars passed the traffic light
and girón my god my children what is it
who are learning
then they disguised him as guards
transit and then these children
they began to distribute sanctions to those
pedestrians and drivers who did not
good use of our ways and then
they told you you are sanctioned and
knows why because you are
giving a very bad example to the new
generations
[Music]
this action here close in the
university hospital of the valley in the
pediatrics unit teaches us that
even in those difficult times when
we are sick we can smile
these girls were common minimum to
the pediatric unit made a day
different for these children
showing us that we can smile and
we can make others smile
these guys here on the wta link
pedestrian that exists in the center
commercial centenary showed us by
what the pedestrian must be again the
protagonist on the tracks
sometimes we think it’s the car and it
we remove the pedestrian remove not the
first you have to be on the road
It’s the pedestrian, not the car
this action southern red baron arranging
a park in mariano ramos yes
revitalize and instead of being spaces
public
for this action you have something very nice and
is that when they presented us this
action were in the same place
southern red baron and green radical front
two white bars that can not be
see but they had come together to do
part of the 100 on a warm day of this
year 2017 to build city and it ‘s a
shows that even when there are things that do not
we tolerate the other
sometimes we can find points of
I find and that was what we saw
Here is a meeting point for
build city a very action
interesting that was done in transportation
massive
sometimes for people to change their
modes and suddenly do better actions
everyday
the option is not to stress them error that
have but show the good things that
does and that’s what these did
guys show people that all
we can also do actions
positive and that we can exalt the and
this action that for me is very emotional
sometimes we do in the transport
public and we do not realize the
person that we have next that that
person can give something to us
a smile a story we always have
something to give and that’s a hug when
sometimes we are doing this action
once I remember that a man told me
little girl to me a while ago they did not give me a
hug
thanks I was happy the day an action
so simple little elaborate that does not say
but what impact can it have?
a lot because many people
you can change the day with that
and well all that one day sustain a
lots of actions that range from
changes in physical space or
improvement interactions with others
people to generate in a day being
more positive actions and this idea does not
I invented it is already born in
2012 in the city of Bogotá for a
group of guys from different
universities that decided together with
a group of Danes
acer not 10,050 but 100 shares
positive in bogotá
and this idea was deployed all over
Colombia in 15 cities of the country and not
only in Colombia explodes in 39
Cities 14 countries and four continents
in the world showing us then that
every day is good morning for
generate changes in our city and that
positive actions not only the
we can do a day but the 365 days
of the year because as Eduardo says
galiano many small people in places
little ones doing small things can
change the world
so he asks me today is
you would give to your city
thank you very much
[Applause]
[Music]
