Dos colombianos fueron elegidos entre los líderes jóvenes más destacables del planeta

Se trata de la directora de 'Amigos del Chocó', Catalina Cock, y el codirector del Banco de la República, Juan Mario Laserna, quienes fueron destacados por el Foro Económico Mundial (FEM).
Un total de 25 de jóvenes latinoamericanos han sido incluidos en la lista de 250 "Jóvenes líderes mundiales", difundida hoy por el FEM, en la que se incluyen personalidades de 70 países.

yeah, those are excellent news, I'm sooooooooooo proud of my country and especially of this young woman who is working everyday to make from this world a better place.
Catalina, is an ASHOKA fellow who is tackling the environment issue, with innovative ways to avoid deforastation involving the communities affected. I had the pleasure to meet her last year in our EXPLORA meeting in Colombia, where she was a speaker and shared with us the experience of being a social entrepreneur.
It is hard to put in words how excited I feel with this recognition, and I only hope this can inspire more people to change the world... yeah, I'm still a dreamer, but this kind of people are the ones that feed my dreams and make me think it is possible to reach them.
