Leadership Vision
To understand that compassion does not mean walking in another´s shoes feigning objectivity, but rather, learning to walk beside a friend on a journey towards peace for all beings.
Project Description
We provide a platform for Indigenous youth in Montreal and Buenos Aires to discuss, create and play with one another, while simultaneously privileging and learning more about our traditional values, games and languages. The exchange between youth from both Montreal and Derqui incorporates music, dance, art, food, sport, language and community. Through gaining a better understanding of our traditional Indigenous sports, and working together to create a new one of our own, the whole community will be able to contribute in their own capacity.
