Questions from Orlanda and Javier

A few weeks ago our friends Javier Naranjo and Orlanda Agudelo came from Colombia to accompany us, to visit some libraries in the communities and to participate in our General Assembly.

During this time of their visit we also took the opportunity and asked them to share with us their emotive strategies to read ourselves, each one of us, and to answer the many questions that arise in our lives. It is great when Orlanda and Javier ask a question because no one has to worry about finding the right answer. That's how it feels for the adults who participate in their workshops and also for the children. They simply ask questions to help us discover our affections, remember our dreams and express our sorrows and frustrations. Their questions help us to remember how we learned to live and to be ourselves.

This year, it was a pleasure to welcome them back to the classrooms of EI "Cristo Rey", where the children really enjoyed "The question, a journey inside". This workshop was also replicated for teachers and educational promoters from various organisations.

Thank you, Javier and Orlanda, for your pleasant presence! We look forward to seeing you back again, until your next visit.
