I am passionate about: I am passionate about Rural Youth, I work every day so that young rural people in the poorest rural communities can have access to opportunities to get better the conditions of life and be happy.
A little known fact about me is: I'm a young peasant who live in a rural community with difficult conditions, whit no potable water, bad means of transportations and little opportunities. I've decided not to leave and better empower other youths in it so that our situation changes.

"Networks are the best way to build prosperity and a self-sustainable countryside"
I'm 33 years old, and as a rural young peasant I know how is living in the countryside in regions affected by armed conflicts and poverty. I am a small plantain producer and the president of APPM association of small producers in my town Moñitos Córdoba. Thanks to my parents I have learned to tackle adversities and take advantage of opportunities. I studied business administration and I have had the opportunities of learning new ways to get ahead in complex contexts like the one in which I live. In my country I contributed to create the young rural entrepreneurship network with 1.000 youths.
