We recognize the present, the authority of this land where I stand. And we all give everything that I say. And through this territory, I recognize all the people in October. And also all the actions that are here present on this forum. And we are very honored with the strength, the knowledge and the respect for this land. And we are here just to strengthen our relationship and also this time that offers us this space for the discussion. So, welcome to the meeting of Karros, 20 years of spirited action for justice. And we are very happy to see you here with us to please bring the testimony of the work you do in your community and perspective. And we wish you all the best in this opening session. But it will not be the first session. We have started this, we have started this meeting on Sunday. And we have, with the theme, we are unstoppable. We have done, there was action, we have done actions for justice in a very calm spirit. If you could join this action to sign petitions. It was an event that had a planetary event since many countries joined us. So, for us to continue this session, I will call on Aisha. She is our new executive director of Karros, who has joined us since last month. Now it is yours. Do you have the opportunity to meet her? So, Aisha will lead this session, these three sessions. So, I give you the floor to Aisha. Thank you, Chanel. And I would like to welcome you to this 20 years of spirited action for justice. So, we are going to start this celebration. So, we are going to recognize our ancestors of this land. Babreba was here, he facilitated more than 120 exercises, more than 120 different groups of organizations. She served for several years and she was also a great coach. She also served in the public function of Canada and in several organizations around the world. She worked in Canada and with the Minister of the Department of Justice of Canada. She also worked on the question of women. She worked to inspire a lot of people and to authorize a lot of women and especially young people. I wish you all the best. Hello. Babreba, thank you very much. What a way to start the day. I am very proud of my mother and Babreba. I was born in the Department of Justice. Congratulations to you, Carlos. And to this wonderful work of these people who are so wonderful. Ten years ago, I was with you, I am always with you. And you certainly inspired me to become an exceptional human being. And I am always very surprised with the work you do and the people. And what the work of Carlos does on the field, on the field. And now we are at the end of a ceremony. You know that for us we have a tradition that represents hope for the community. And it also represents what has to come. And you know that it is not just the temperature, so it must also be the men and women who gather together for the growth of this spiritual activity and also feed a lot of people during this exercise. And the foundation is therefore very important. But this is how we adapt to living this fresh water. So you know that this foundation is very important for the growth of the community. And it's just like justice, it's just like change. It's just like for the best chance to come. It's a very important foundation. For me, Carlos has the same definition of that. To create a very good solid foundation, not just for herself, but also for the people around the world. And also in Canada, everywhere in the world. And this is to adapt to the evolution of the world. This is to be powerful. This is to help people create the change of the world and also to improve the future. So that this exercise, the treatment, so that it starts. I know that Carlos has worked very hard. But there are also a lot of things that we have to do. And I think there are a lot of days when people called me and said to me, there is no foundation. There is no foundation. It's not as bad as doing what you do. But there are some people who don't know my story. They don't know the story of thousands of people here on this land and also around the world. There are a lot of injustices that are between women and men on a daily basis. And when we make injustices against our land or when we make injustices between other human beings, it's important for us to denounce this violence, these injustices on the part of this agency and to be the voice of the homeless and also on the part of us. Because we have beautiful days ahead of us. We need our small children to be able to have the minimum of what we benefit today. And it's the same way that our great-grandparents have received. So this has to change. And for this, we have to work hard in the hands. And for Cairos, once again, I am very proud to be here and to be part of this community for the last 10 years. And I think I want to stay here for 10 more years. I'm going to start this day with an action of grace, an action of grace. And it's a prayer, an action of grace, to say that we know each other as we have new people on our platform. Yes. And for us, the indigenous people, a little bit more often, we treat the land, we always give credit where we are always recognizing the land which gives us all what we benefit today. So today, I say, Cairos, thank you for coming to our life. And the strength that God has given them, the strength they need to continue the work they do through the world to improve the life of the human beings through the world. And I pray for everyone who is here today to learn with us, to share with us so that there is good change in what we can do. So I'm very grateful for our little kids who shared their testimonies to our traditional ceremony of Tremune. And I'm also grateful to our motherland which provides us with everything we need. And also for the love of the water that our motherland always gives us to everyone, to all plants, to all trees here and everywhere else on this land. I am grateful to our sisters who created a good house so that we can follow this model. And also the generation of our sisters so that we can have a white platform. I am very grateful also for people who are there for the good justice who have had a good respect for our motherland, so the land. And I ask the creators to touch the heart of each of us here, each of us so that we can be able to have the responsibility to have the rest of all the creatures and the creativity that is here on Earth. And I pray that each of us can benefit from this good hearing to understand this session and also for the generation to come. And I say hello to everyone. Thank you Vaubra. It was very remarkable, what a great way to start a session. Thank you very much. Thank you very much. So we are going to support the start of our 20th anniversary. So we are going to take the time to celebrate all that we have learned. And also, there has been attention behind these three days that we will have to give the opportunity to our children to sing, to pay attention and also to have a vision for hope and also to take care of it for tomorrow. I take this moment to introduce the work of the character of Karros and also the people who have come on this platform to listen to us and to participate in this meeting.

would like to welcome you and thank you for being here and I am very happy to be here the end of our session and where do we come from the panelists and the speakers and the people in Top Town and everything we have done in Kairos we are going to offer their reflections of what Kairos is doing I am very happy to be here I can't remember when I was introduced to Kairos and when I was I was involved I think in 2012 every time I heard this name I really wanted to be a partner so I know that the social institutions are there everywhere but there is a company where I had an autopilot so I put it on my computer just to show my commitment to work in Kairos and I am very happy to be here and at this time for the reflection how it started I would like to present our first panel which is Ivan who is the president of an organization and one of the organizations she is also an activist of climate change and she is also an activist of the oil industry and she served in several organizations so I am very happy to be here Ivan thank you very much Emily I am going to speak in Spanish I don't know if I should I don't know if I should give Emily can I continue Emily so first I would like to thank Kairos and all our partners here for giving me the opportunity to be part of this conversation this dialogue is very important it's really important also because we are here for the change of ideas but it's also important because it's the anniversary of an organization which is Kairos for the ecological actions and also for our organizations across the world which plays a very important role in solidarity and work together I would like to say hello and greetings to everyone who is here to everyone who works for Kairos and we have been able to work together for 20 years and it's very interesting as a situation because I am from Ecuador our ecological action in our organization we we we we don't understand the situation ourselves but with Kairos the opposite they have always been very intimate it's a very friendly relationship that we have maintained and everything we have been able to do in the past until today I would like to say congratulations Kairos for this 20 years behind unimaginable work and it's very important that we can remember our sister Glodin she was a sister who worked with us for several years and she miss us a lot this time which was devoted to her work and I think that my voice is making an echo of her voice to say especially our sister and our brothers who joined us through the world and at that moment during these moments I would like to remember the three very important points the moments that I worked with Kairos it's just they show us how we were able to create the change the change in the organization in this to have created a world both for people for animals for the earth we will remember the ecological action in 2003 10 years ago we published a small book and in this book there is a very important book and this book this book was introduced more distractions with this book this book came out in 2003 and it was very important at that moment very important because ecological action ecological action Kairos worked and we are going to work it was very symbolic that Kairos from Canada she came she came to collaborate with us to work in this idea so we can't believe that the industrialized countries in her case, Canada was a country that had that had that had a heart of the South it was a very important moment so I would also remember gentlemen it would not have been possible without the presence of this gentleman to work together his help was very important I also know that you all he does not show you all this this brave gentleman who worked with us there was also another very important moment that I would like to remember when Kairos invited us ecological action from our local Ecuador to come meet us in our QG and I still remember one of the events that took place in Canada they had a slogan the oil in the land that that is under their request if you want if you want to think of a real world a better world not only to leave the oil on its side but also in the north and in this moment that we have at this moment we have brought our campaign and there was a document that we have a review together on the carbon dioxide and there again we have talked it is a project of Kairos it was a very important moment for us and at this moment we can see that the project the project of the country of the south the project of the country of the south were supported by the project of the country of the north and that they aligned with us on this work at this moment and also for the the future we were very worried we were worried about Canada because you are suffering with the government who who who was trying to analyze some rights of the citizens I know that you are suffering with you are fighting with your Canadian government and it is it is something that we can do to support you but so this problem was not present in the south but also you in the north you of the Kairos were going through and there are several meetings several justice actions that we have brought on the ground 10 years ago the most important thing that we were able to do it was so we agreed with the women and the extra and I remember we played from 2019 Gloria she was very delicate she was invited to Kairos to to talk to a meeting about the rights of the man and every time she was she was afraid of touching while she was talking she was trying to share about a woman and she was able to analyze to analyze the exercise that was put in place she was able to work with the people of Kairos and also to think about the possibility and that is this way that they were able to so all these all these exchanges that was shared all these exchanges were what was the end the Kairos brothers came to visit us to see the places that were affected by by the oil production the changes between the national oil industry in the south and in the north which is very powerful it helped us to put in place a very strong action to denounce between these two countries we worked with Kairos hand in hand it is not only an international cooperation but also with Kairos for us it was a sister organization with whom we worked hand in hand side by side and I am very sure that this will continue for the 20 years to come and as we said Kairos will always be there and we will always be here for Kairos to work together for the two organizations and thank you congratulations to Kairos and to our the memory of our sister Gloria and our brother John of the ecological action I think they are here thank you very much thank you Yvonne for sharing this very passionate sister and the experience of Kairos and I would like to present this conference she is a member she is also sister of Saint Joseph she worked in an office of action and justice since 1988 and this organization works hand in hand with the auto optoms of Canada and I would like to so it was the welcome to share our next conference I would like you to activate your microphone thank you Emily and I speak to you from the territory of Makwe and my spirit with this people and my mother and I am very happy to be part of this 20th anniversary and this celebration is just to communicate with people that I have not seen for a long time it is very wonderful to see this face so to start my thoughts my experiences with Kairos it was a journey a journey a journey of 20 years and this work of 20 years is very significant for me to when I was involved with Kairos so I speak to you as a person who also worked with Kairos and I also know that Kairos was involved with the indigenous people it is not only a journey but it is something an experience of faith that we all experienced together so in our human action in a very human way I mean as a member of the faith there was a meeting in 2011 I had the opportunity to be invited and one thing that was released it was a symbol there was there was a little bit of light that was there there was a symbol so we will have to look for this symbol during this pilgrimage and so the exercise was to look for this symbol very important and if you find this symbol you will have a lot of things and in other terms that too it was one of the ways that this collaboration with Kairos I could say it was an impact when we worked together there was in the faith in the hope in the confidence and certainly that's what everyone here could experience so I deduced that by doing this it was the welcome to the foreigners I started to think so I started to project in the past and we started with a coalition a few designs of the coalition and one of the coalition that we did I remember when it was established it was a question that was always in the heart of staff it was it was not to be reminded of 11 coalitions that we had and left so it was it was the cooperation we had with the 11 coalitions there so the priority was we had six priorities to establish with the communication team and I remember through over 20 years we had a lot of respect within our team and we always had these five different types of priorities that together the work that defines the work of Kairos so these priorities have been renamed and re-structured but the Kairos ministry remains the same and in these 20 years in this pilgrimage that we had that we had the last 20 years we were looking for the discipline and one of one of the things between 2001 and 2002 I was invited to our new staff of Kairos and I was invited to go to the Kairos office to do a consultation on a different form of spirituality and so that you can also have knowledge about it and they wanted to learn more so and from there my experience has changed the recognition and until here this experience when this association was established the first my work with Kairos there are several times I felt that there are other organizations other than Toronto were marginalized and I thought it was necessary that we could re-structure the organization because it was too centralized so I after later I realized this collaboration was not marginalized and so in one of our structures in place we made a coalition for the rights of the soul and this circle of reflection has become very important so between 2001 and 2001 I was invited through the actors of the civil situation in the territory with the Kairos group and during that time someone came to our union actors of the civil and this created a crisis of consciousness between us the needs that we had and also this is just one of the stories how Canada was developed this is our history and I also recognize that and during that time between 2005 2006 there was a campaign that we launched to give a discreet gift and in 2010 and 2011 there was another campaign on the city the land and I know it's for a good future I think the signs that Kairos was engaged purely with the indigenous people or the Indigenous people and that was that's how we advanced over several years and for me one of the most significant moments in the coalition and in 2011 I I I was I was asked by the society the representative of the civil society here in Toronto to be representatives of the indigenous people and in it was a moment it was a moment for me to animate this to support this meeting and the staff of Kairos was came for this meeting and they did the campaign with us and they showed us a plan on the 5 years to come with two members of the general direction of Kairos and I think I don't know I don't remember but there was also the invitation of another group after I was asked how the structure of Kairos was and they came to this meeting Kairos presented the plan on the 5 years and they did the campaign for the year but there was not maybe a satisfaction from the other side of the indigenous people so in this effort we had a conversation and during this conversation we waited for the people to come so we didn't just want to be present on the plan of another group on the work plan of another group it was not because the other people didn't want to and what they said we didn't just want the campaign but we wanted a relationship that's what we said but I think it was clear to me that Kairos wanted a relationship in the indigenous people wanted a relationship with Kairos and after having discussed during the discussion I understood that we wondered did Kairos want to talk do you want to work with the indigenous people or do you want to work for us and that was the group was that was what the group was I think it wasn't the moment of Kairos because the staff heard this message and they recognized that there was a need for a change and there was a small community that was established and so that we could develop a new a new relationship with the indigenous people that was done that was done there was a reaction from the members of the general of Kairos and also the representatives Bianca who was there at that time was a staff member who was also there participating in this meeting and we had a meeting for several months to try to clarify with what we wanted on the relationship on the partnership the development and one of the results was that with Kairos our approach and our circle and what I would like to say is the conversation so the relationship that exists between the members of Kairos at the beginning of Kairos there wasn't a general conscience there wasn't there wasn't also systemic racism but I think that this initiative this relationship that we were able to build on over the years we seem to be very aware of that and we have worked together to effectively change things in a more positive way so I would say there was a lot of significant changes since this partnership with this coalition with this new relationship and Kairos himself was very committed very committed in the coalition in relations, in education working with the members of the civil society in several and different localization in Canada so it's very we can't say enough how we were able to complete together with Kairos, both with the indigenous groups the work and the same need for reconciliation I think there is another another problem that was the development what the direction of Kairos did the development of an alliance and the direction of this alliance is very very important reinforced 10 years ago and I think another difference that I saw Kairos was committed as a partner and particularly in the development of the White House and also it was also a moment of Kairos for for the invitation of the people of the Indigenous people and to to change the paradigm of relations between the government of Canada the Canadian himself and the Indigenous people and also allowed us to advance in this reconciliation and certainly the work of reconciliation and still still needs to be there and Kairos and the development of the White House with Kairos and in the heart of Kairos's story the it is a testament for an ardent desire for the change of the future and also the new reality that we are facing today. Thank you to all of you I can, there is still a lot to share but I think that thank you very much Priscilla and thank you very much and we will share this and as we said it is to look at where we come from now I will present our new by conferencing he is a researcher teaching and once active what he considers he is in the movement of social justice and he is also in the churches teaching of social life he is associate professor in the faculty of the theology in the university here and the Toronto College for the theology so we welcome you Hello currently I give I give you the site for the 20th 20th anniversary of the celebration and I would particularly thank the overview of this session and the connection and the solidarity of women between the Canadian group and the connection the relationship with Cairo and other groups so I will share the engagement of Cairo with Dr. and since then and each time I have an opportunity I stimulate this I take this with there is a lot of memory to share and for so I like to say unfortunately time is not enough so there is more in here I will talk about the creation of coalition between the 70s and 80s and between the 70s and 80s so I will we did an action 10 days of world justice it was at the church it was at the church where we put an action on international development and it was a coalition so the coalition were we were a success with several initiatives of groups and with the and we worked in the in the the problems that are in this of the local opposition and the formal organizations how we are together to support this initiative and all the success all the achievements that we had in the rest of the resilience and testimonies with the ecological action we will not have enough time to work with all these achievements and as some people say do not talk too much about the achievements and we can not advance without talking about the achievements the result of globalization in the 70s years we are working with these organizations in Canada in several localities we worked on globalization and also in Latin America and also we worked on the question based on the kind of violence based on the kind we worked with the church in the years in in the period of the years when he was born it was a moment for in his judgment he said in his point of view he said how can you keep inactive on your microphone while there is a conference who is talking trying to inactive your microphone so there is the initiative of Jubile we had a declaration of this declaration in the selection of Jubile to mark the entrance in the 2000s in the last 20 years certainly today on the way around extraordinary religious resurgence it's not that any tradition has the answers to the questions of earlier periods or the questions today but the kinds of questions have been asked before the kinds of issues have been wrestled with before the kinds of resolutions of some of those issues can inspire us today so as a symbol that captures this sensibility it was important to us in the Jubile initiative a symbol of apocalypse and let me cite one source for rethinking this notion of apocalypse I'm citing John Mohawk a Seneca born into the turtle clan on the Cateraugas Indian Reservation and what's now western New York state he was a primary author of a basic call to consciousness the classic collective work of the Haudenosaunee Grand Council from the mid 1970s on the meaning of traditionalism as a guide to political activism in his view apocalypse was not really a myth of the far distant end of the cosmos at the end of time but some astronomers now talk about it as the big crunch rather he insisted referring to a particular hoping that civilization of death and rebirth quote, this story should not be thought of as a fantasy but as a collective memory the archeological and geological records show that past civilizations did exist in the desert southwest in the present day US they did decline and disappear and the people did reappear the story is true so in conclusion let me say that's all saying indigenous peoples especially to see more clearly that the story of resurrection and the birth removal is unfolding again in our time and this time on planetary perhaps even cosmic scales as prey to the kairos and related communities and movements drawing on the rich legacies continue to grow in their capacities to nurture insight, solidarity, hope and faith which sustains us all against such great odds and thank you very much thank you so much for sharing your reflections with us today we are now about to move to the thank you very much we will take a moment to take a moment to take a moment and our we want to be aware of that that the French interpreter will be taking a break so we'll now move to hearing from our responders as they share their thoughts from what they've heard of our panelists and lift up any of the important things they want to highlight from this the first responder we will hear from is Georgine Kenjne de Jutain and I apologize if I pronounced your name incorrectly she is an economist she received a master of philosophy in economic science she is trained on project management, monitoring and evaluation, conflict resolution gender and human rights lobby and advocacy and she is now working as program coordinator with the African Gender and Extractive Alliance woman based in Johannesburg South Africa so welcome Georgine thank you very much Emily it's a pleasure and satisfaction being with you as we are all celebrating Kyros 20 years of great work I also want to take this opportunity to congratulate the staff of Kyros and we'll also think about John DeLon and also John Mihev and also thinking of Jim Davis with whom we worked for a very long time so I have listened with great interest and that was really very inspiring the message and the passionate I understand that the message and the passionate experience of his work over the years and also the sharing of experiences that he had in his work with Kyros so what attracted my attention is the fact that the fact that he started to remove the points of Kyros it was a very important moment that Kyros made the foundation solid so the foundation must be there to solve the questions about justice and that was the question of justice which is very important because if the foundation will blow and if the foundation can say that the wind can blow but Kyros was there and was trying to contemplate other areas to come that means that the foundation was so solid so I was very touched and the vision of change that and also the world that wants to have and what was very important is how how Kyros was what Kyros wanted so and they explored what we are going to call what Ivan said and I had the opportunity to work with them to share them so they looked at the women in and we know that the women in the tragedy their work, their problem was not brought on the table and we also saw the question about the rights of women and the public even and the number of questions we had in the countries Kyros went further to examine and to research what we are really talking about and also this deep ecological and also the destruction of our planet that we are going to see today because they have been they have denounced they have removed their voices their voices are heard and also we were talking here about the alliance Kyros was not a voice for marginalized communities but they were talking directly with the community and also presenting so from my little experience I just I just I just when I look at the experience of the last 20 years with a very good intention our partners in the north were talking about our questions but we were not there we were not there we had this opportunity to live what we can to suffer how we are affected by the injustices we are suffering day by day and how we are touched we are felt that our vision to change the world but Kyros was one of the organizations still on the ground to support other communities to present their topic on the table and that was clearly one a summary that our last three conferences put on the table so they were and that was very important because no the most of our decision to make leaders sometimes when I talk and when they when they are in their very professional meeting we do not understand what is going on on the ground but when we represent actors of the city we also sometimes put some representatives of the community but not really representatives and that is a problem that you have raised during your interventions and we you also have some questions that concern us and even on this time there are others among our Christian people there are others that have their own spirituality the question the question of the lack of awareness being created in their spirituality and this is to recognize what we do of evil we are facing racism, exploitation through the world but I am working with Carlos who is in the north who is not working like other organizations but they are thinking just like us we work together in our needs so we also there is one of the things that Priska talked about here she talked about reconciliation work reconciliation work is not only on or between Carlos I worked in a community where I had the opportunity to support Carlos and I really worked with young students who are university students I worked with to go to the community so that we could have the tools of reconciliation how we can get rid of violence and conflict because the solution is not only we do not have a fight but we do not have a fight for this but the problem we have the opportunity to reconcile and this has been an article Carlos gave us in the community they have what they need through Carlos this is what I had this presentation and I would also specify that I thank the new new person of Carlos to continue in the same direction and work in their hands in their hands I know that there will be 23 or 24 but we also have the opportunity to do things so that we are not marginalized and we are the only ones to be able to exchange thank you very much for giving me this opportunity so to speak thank you for sharing with me I would also like to give the opportunity to the next he is a bachelor in anthropology and a master in anthropology from the University of Georgia so he brought the actions of the project department in Canada he worked for a decade in the law in the law of law and he was also involved in several coalitions so we will invite Joe to speak now I think there is a problem I think your inactive quality can you now activate your information? so thank you everyone I join you from Ottawa and it's a pleasure for me to be on this platform so I just want to highlight 5 very important points that we have already discussed and after I heard the interview in retouch and I think that Yvonne the remarkable work of the Defendants one of the very important things of Karros when Karros was created they weren't just doing coalitions with certain circles but they were looking for the particular moment to do the coalitions one question and we didn't have the coalitions specifically to do our work on the coalitions on the coalitions so we can be in solidarity with other coalitions what we call the the activism it was a key and it was even Karros on the last 20 years and that was very fascinating but what is still very fascinating here is this remarkable story I was one of members who came to work in Ottawa in the 90s one of the reasons that Karros was established was when we did a work with their coalitions we had a debt of $25,000 and if we look at Karros now and the staff and the work we did and the participants and our work on the indigenous group we will see a big difference we are living as so I think there is a very wonderful story that Karros Karros really pushed the work of other coalitions at a very serious level and and with the work of Blancourt who was very developed we brought remarkable actions that we have developed after the many of our coalitions it was very different so this is just a story that can be shared and can also draw a lot of blood we also mentioned the question of extravism for our community one of the wonderful stories that I could be in the direction of Karros when we had the debates which delegations we needed which delegations we needed to work on the problem of we saw people who had projects we saw the Congo we also had our church and this conversation and debates were there on the west side bringing our actions and I put on the table a very ideal suggestion for delegations in the campaign all this development was really important to generate for the analysis on the genre we did and how this problem this violence was going to impact the others and I will make a final comment Liza he talked you know I learned that our community because we worked on the death which was there there were 30 people who were gathered around the table and even staff staff we put a new frame of possibilities so that and we talked you can go to see what God said the theme today we come with Carlos I think the response is of people and the tradition of the community of professionals who don't have the fear of changing things this is not just to remember the details of different stories it's just the question of saying that this is a good way to live our lives in the faith and things will be different there will be a response in schools and churches will be different Carlos as the mayor of Calgary said we have the chance to model something the chance to model something in the last 20 years but how are we going to impact on the future? there are people who talked about economic movements the need the need and it's a moment to make actions towards a new way of life a new way of life and a new way of working for the future and a new way of working for the future and the idea of the populist who are trying to take us away there is also a way I will share there are two months we had a participation of 2,000 people with the reconciliation of the truth in the churches how can we put our agenda to another level He said, the point of this is to realize that we are about to work on the change. So I would like to thank everyone who came to this call, to this meeting. It's a chance for me to say thank you. Thank you for these words of conclusion that you just made. I know very well that you all want to continue to share your stories. It was an inspiration to listen to you all. It was a very rich discussion and I felt empowered. And what gives us strength is just the fact that I would like to thank you all. It has been an honor to be with you and to share it with you today. So I would like to give the floor to Aisha for the next interview. What a wonderful celebration. I would like to invite Adriana to come back and share with us what the technology is with us. Thank you. So I will simply share my screen. I would like to start with an image that I have taken together for 20 years. The history, the recognition that it was a possibility for the Kavosprix to be established as an organization. You can see the steps on each age of this organization. It is a recognition to see how to celebrate and where it comes from. On the other hand, the strength that is behind this work is for the indigenous people and for everyone across the world. It is just understanding the connection, it is just recognizing the reconnection. It is a journey that will always be there. And also the invitation to recognize the challenges and the recognition of injustice. There is also some talk about the change in this graphic. The change is what is very important in the last 20 years of Carlos's work. And how we have worked in our relationships, in the organization, and how we have restructured several times. And we are able to resolve things that do not work better within the organization. There is also the work of Ivan. It is also a way of not forgetting this coalition between the North and the South. We realize that within this world community, we are connected. We are connected as the contract has been developed. And even in the developing countries. There are many things that have worked. I am very happy to be here tomorrow and to continue to be here tomorrow for the conversation. I will be here tomorrow. Thank you very much, Andriana, for this artistic work. Oh, what a morning! What a morning! It was very, very incredible. I think that what we are about to see, and what we are about to see, is what the organization has done. The fruit of Carlos throughout the summer, and how it was established, and how it is important for us. And all the people who have been part of Carlos. And we are here just to say thank you. So I thank all the conferences that participated today, who spoke about it. Thank you for what you have done, thank you for what you have shared for our celebration and assembly. It is other than the 20 years of the anniversary of Carlos. So now we are going to talk about what is happening now. Because the realities are so different. We have a pandemic that has been going on. We are going to talk about what we are going through now at this time. Because we will have to talk about it tomorrow. And on the third day, we will talk about how we are going to continue our work. How we will always be active on the field. And what is new, what is innovative, and what is different. The way in which we have restored the world. Thank you all for joining us tonight. I believe that Carlos is an economical and economic relationship with you. And I see that it is a very powerful mechanism by the change that is there. And Carlos is involved. And I think you will also be involved in the work of the justice, the action of justice. And the community. And in a way, we have to participate in our positions. So there are several ways to communicate with us. If you please, if you want to be involved with us, be part of our work. So we still have two workshops this afternoon. The first is at 13 o'clock for equal dignity and equal justice. And at 15 o'clock, we will have another. And I am very happy that you are here with us for this celebration. We had a wonderful, wonderful, wonderful afternoon. Thank you all.
