The second face-to-face Territorial Dialogue is coming up! 

Next Thursday, November 9, at the University of Medellin, the Territorial Dialogue will bring together a panel of profiles of academics, community leaders, artists, businessmen and public servants to discuss inequality from the perspective of the Colombian coffee region.  
 

The panelists will be challenged to address the inequalities experienced in the four departments of this region: Antioquia, Risaralda, Quindío and Caldas. The discussion will take advantage of the experiences and knowledge of each one to reflect on three central themes: inequality in access to education, in access to decent work and the inequalities faced by young people in the country.  
 

These are the panelists of this second face-to-face Territorial Dialogue:  

  • Andrés García, economist and researcher at Universidad del Rosario in Bogotá. He is currently the director of the Observatory of Labor Inequality. 
  • Andrea Carmona, activist, social manager, bridge builder and storyteller. She is part of the media outlet Le Cuento. She was present in the social outburst of 2019. 
  • Yoiner Machado, artist and cultural manager. Creator and director of Unión Latina, an art academy that works from the dance in the commune 13 in Medellín.  
  • Daniela Trejo, Secretary of Productivity and Competitiveness of Antioquia. 
  • Elkin Echeverri, entrepreneur and businessman. Former director of Planning Ruta N. Director of the Eledé Foundation. He is currently writing a book on innovation and cities. 
  • Paula Andrea Valencia, professor and researcher at the University of Medellín.  
  • Allison Benson, moderator of the Dialogue. Director Reimaginemos.  

In addition to the discussion, those attending the event will have access to the award-winning Colombian documentary film Indivisible, which has not yet been released. Reimaginemos will also give USD 700 in micro-grants to diverse dialogue initiatives on inequality proposed by those attending the event.  

The Dialogues are unmissable opportunities, as they broaden the vision about inequalities in the different territories of the country. If you are interested in attending the conversation or watching the live transmission, register at this link: https://bit.ly/3FrAIVL
