CHILE : The dream and hope of a better world is our challenge as educators

"Education is the most powerful weapon you can use to change the world"
(Nelson Mandela)

"Nelson Mandela said it, and we can verify it because "Education" allows us to better understand the world we live in and what is happening around us, from many different perspectives and not only from the one we are told.

Actually, I believe that "Education" essentially helps to form truly human beings and these must contribute to changing the world, without violence, with knowledge.

The dream and hope of a better world is our challenge as educators, let us ask God to make it so.

I am very happy to be able to sow a seed in this field of education even if it is not always easy. It is a vocation and we have the task of believing in this challenge and helping to believe it, which implies a promise of fidelity and a commitment.
