Maria del mar Gomez-Gimnasio la montaña
My name is María del Mar Gómez; I live in Bogota, Colombia. I study at Gimnasio La Montaña and I am in tenth grade. I am 16 years old,and I leave with my parents and my brother and sister, I also have a cat. I am a student that participates in different activities of the school. I am in the musical, the politics club, since last year I am one of the six subcapitans of the proyect CASAS GLM , and I am the ecological leader of my class.
I am a person who is constantly concerned about goblal issues, and tries to have a concise opinion about these. I normally try to give solutions to problems, and i believe that young people should not forgett that the age is not a bareer in order to accomplish desires and make changes in our society. I have been part of Congreso Joven for three years; this activity is a congress in which different school students of Colombia gather in order to give solutions to the different problems of the country. The event actually takes place in the installations of the Colombian congress and the students play the role of Senators.
One of my biggest concerns is the economic inequality that many countries suffer. There is a lot of stigmatization that has, nowadays, lower the possibilities for many people to have the "adequate" or even minimum conditions for having a quality of life. From this problem many others are derivated (poorness, violence, low education etc).
