17 years
so in silence a breakdown of
corregimiento of aceraz to one hour
of the urban area of the irrigation district h
we got to these to this city so
Linda to start a life completely
new
arrives more to a neighborhood of Christ
riohacha where we arrived displaced by
the threat of groups outside the law
when we arrived at this site
we were still being persecuted by these groups and
that’s where he loves me and one of my
brothers we decided to go not to another neighborhood
of director and gouache as well as they did
many mothers who came for the same
my mother’s situation
displacement
when we arrived at this invasion of
investment because it can be a lot
people and my mother was the fatherly to the
mom and dad like always has
done and reaches goal to build a house
no, I would call home, I’m
I would call a plastic on three sticks
and it was when I was going to start building
a plastic three branches and only
our fence and finish my brother yes
all and at night pampered and the others
mothers were those who dominated the metra
our brother because he never fails
who wants gossiping and because in the
giving it because we get nights
after all that and more victims of
a gale that took everything or little what
that we had
after that we went somewhere else
of crime and huacho and you can all that
time it takes two years without receiving
education without listening or that I
they will call enlisted in a school that
I can say present
then already after two years
start studying at an institution
I have two kilometers left from my house
and it was when I was a little younger
began to walk all that little
had to get to school cross all the
via or by what car and started
study in the morning the now day
of the morning and a half has changed and
brothers meals were going 23 in a
bicycle then he came in the middle
brother was carrying my brother is already and
in the case of the bicycle no longer the pot
where we came the little fingers we put
lodeiro to be able to return to the house
with money to do homework or buy
the notebooks and so was the course
of all day until the day that to me
I played late student and sister of
the morning and I had to go to the
twelve noon in full sun river
aller or until school crossing all
River District Avenue ax and
the afternoon my brother was going to pick me up at
the bicycle and he always told me
they keep the 100 pesitos to hit you
Airala cycle because if we do not go on foot
and I always all of all 500
weights that he always kept always
I quote and the day I did not keep I knew
that I had to walk
So that’s when I first
Once I started listening at school the
child rights issue
or rather human rights and
then where do I realize the
importance for a child to know
your rights and the importance that for
I defend it because it gives you so much
importance because there where
we came displaced same that I did not
I knew that right and for that reason I
do not know that right
I never defended him because I did not know him
then from there push fears losing a
little bit and I started the teacher so much
that spoke to me of right and I song
as I always said sir but this
that is your right to tell me if
this is our way nothing this does not
changes nothing and then the lady always
I said stop bothering so much and
when they call us they let go of the neck
I ‘m still there in the cheek
I pulled the simple dress but
said another little bit not that
people read a dream but I love him
listen to you then it was still
well until the day I speak to the
teacher was a very strong way and she
give year we are going to show others
boy girl and teenager on twitter and
guacha because they must know their rights
and why defend it and the average lady
environment is too small for
thinking about that
to it is that man by man
the best colon in a small container
I said
and then it was there when the teacher
set of another half mate
Well let’s make case then
commented at school to talk to them about
the rights of the child and people towards
a way that I do not know if so
boring but we own
children we talked to them about
the rights I had and how
defend it but not only is it a
right but also the duties because
I did not know not only we have the right
but also homework and the teacher
beginning all morning always
these workshops did it to the room
period of the school because then
until we have the year won
then we arrive and all the mornings and
natalia and the design but nothing is worth
let’s prove the rights here
only the institution because here
the institution is not only
children and teenager
then we transmit it throughout the
river district guachal arriving at
all the institutions and the teacher
at recess we always left and she
same in which the remains vélez lole del
taxi and she told me and sometimes she said what
that he was going to pay highs and design
when I am when I am mayor
riohacha paid for it and she followed the
rhythm and in the end it always ended
paying then like that was all the
day sometimes but I asked the
teacher or s among us the
comrades that will no longer give the talk
joined the snack and with that and not to
other decisions talk about the right
of the child and it was like that when for the first
Once they tell me that I am going to travel to Bogota
and then I did not believe it
Well, if you ‘re with the wall or not, do not
They serve to travel to Bogota if here I
I want my twitter as well as rajoy
There was for her suffered not hit
frozen not then hold the
five years
for the first time he mounted a plane and and it’s
something incredible because I told him
He said anything that would not ride
one thing about those because life and
promote well in the air
Then he came to Bogota and II meeting
national
they ask me to talk to them about the
experience of how to talk to others
children about their right and also
I learn a lot about how I do in their
cities and after all that in the
night I was so annoying I did not get
to the other four companions he said
but how are you in your city
to pass this and all this and I had so
free is in everything and is gifted in
a sheet for so fast and sometimes
when it arrived it is therefore in all
mouths where I had written it and so
it was when I started to gain experience
after all this comes a project
of the government there was the institution
a few hours the project only
reach the most vulnerable area and
begins and where it says not here only
They are to enroll children in this neighborhood
because the other rhythm can and I
I wanted to be in this project because in
that project accepted initiative created
per child girl and adolescent and then that
day that is in line I got myself
I put and says what will make the neighborhood
and who already knows that I was not to carry
so I wrote and it was like that when I
They taught to be a true leader
gets to start making people receive the
workshops and imd and told me that
neighborhood was not that day but if you did
you know it the room notes should not
know then the project taught us
of how to make initiative and because you
you have to be a leader from small
the project ends like all the
government
and that’s when I still have
the doubt and the teacher of the workshops
I kept insisting and insisting and
because I always went to his house
learn more and at the moment you
she teaches me to be worth a lot of book I see
something very important in all this the
public policy book of childhood and
adolescence and I teach them travel and
this with which it was commented that and she
gave public policy is very
important for children’s rights
then when already medium is very
important to see this child was
when the lace and he and then this
it’s important this has to know and
it was like that when the government arrives
national and begins to formulate and
initiative to formulate the policy
public of childhood adolescence in the
department of the guajira but I already
he was fed that his towers
public policy and where where
He started talking leads me to reach
school to talk about politics
public and then the whole workshop I
He was the one who talked the most because you can
talk to everyone about politics julia
I had not read all of that
then those people to see everything
that I knew about public policy
from childhood adolescence I was invited to
to give workshops in which
municipalities of the district rigo ax and in
some and some parts of the city and
I arrived and arrived and I saw them
fellow church boys we’re going to
public policy but there was always
an adult talking about politics
public one on one child and I saw
that when the adult spoke there
groped paper the other was chatting
I tried it for 10 do not take they ‘re
boring the pelaos as you have to
talk about the same language as a child to
child and that’s when I started
talk about public policy
Actions made child girl and teenager
but how to explain the policy
public investment and a child
that what with so much technical
they will not understand it then fire and
he started telling him public policy
it’s like in a school when it’s
school does a lot
a soccer championship and if I have a
coach and if I have a players
the players are us children
and teen coaches are a
official of the mayor’s office
the organizer of the championship in the
mayor and the stat which organize it
coaches for the soccer team
are the public policies
So that’s how it was when he was shown
wants a public policy and to
what was the policy then?
public and it matters already to us 2007
we must be and it was like that when many
children asks them by showing the policy
public of the form of a championship of
football and so it became more fun
and then it was like that when many many
Young people and children
they hit me then let’s talk
about public policy and in the year
2013 in La Guajira the policy will be given
public of childhood adolescence and so
when they know me as the son or
rivers piter the son of politics
public of childhood adolescence and
when all this happens, a
program where they receive initiatives
created by child girl and teenager
then my school I tell you guys
we are going to create an initiative but with
more initiative you seem political
church is not that political but
we have to create for example
something that is affecting us
we are going to take it as an initiative and
help us help us
to do this initiative and it was like that
when a lot of part went to show you
then an initiative of her was the
signage to leave the school and
it was this initiative that was given and
then they when they saw this
there would be many initiatives that did not
but this one is asking for help
to other city officials we
they helped and for all this this
initiative
the flames that invite many very much to
many people from the press to official and
has been shown and we said that because
we wanted this peace initiative and
adolescence juvenile platform e where
Children have a voice and a good vote
there is public policy is not
can you trust
there is everything then all that
to all this the fault always carry a
group and we’re going to the mayor mayor
we need this but not always
let’s sit there that the mayor does not
see or health the children stop us or
Mayor church is not dead to me
neighborhood my neighborhood there are light and neighborhoods no
there is this but not only tell you
I say good that if you are going to meet
but to give us a date and that the
same will come to the neighborhood and it was not this
It is up to this day
and that’s when it started everything and us to
to Colombia of the great idea in that
moment to create the first council of
child and adolescent in colombia and when
they make me the call that I make part of
that advice with the three children with
my person who were to represent
colombia in brazil was one for me
an honor to represent the Gallic region
unions between the Caribbean region
when you dream you can not do
reality and so when it reaches a lot
many part I tell the boys of
my neighborhood
I tell the boy that we can dream and
they tell me but how can we dream
if dreams come true
I say but if it really does not make
lotus actually does not expect others to
help but we have no court
good to start being low
clean it and that’s when we cleaned the
pp long ago and there we did not spend all the
tomorrow kicking and a mother screaming
that for lunch and always go to
five the afternoon next to dinner and it was and
it was like that when they gave me to do
part of this advice and and when I
they invite to invite me to pereira to
participate on experiences of
Latin American on public policy
and I hated everything that has reached
and I wonder what I never thought
achieve everything is but why never
I came to think that
for everything that I lived behind and that’s when
milk is born to children to children
and the people and my partner who is
moment that the guajiros and all the
children from all over the country
let’s pick up shovel and hammer and let’s build
the country that we want
since already because if we want a house
to live in the future we begin to
build in the present and that Colombia
it is not built overnight
is built from the present and if
you want to live a better future
began to build in the present god
I bless you more
[Applause]
