In FIL Huancayo 2020

The Huancayo International Book Fair (FIL) 2020, given the global health emergency situation, had a virtual edition.

Our brother Alfredo Mires Ortiz, General Coordinator of the Network, was invited on 26th November to participate in the Conversation “Territories of reflection: rescue of oral memory within the framework of the Rural Libraries Network of Cajamarca”.

The event was coordinated by Medali Mejía and the dialogue held with Elías Rengifo, a research professor at UNMSM.

The discussion dealt with issues related to the Rural Libraries Network, its beginnings, stages and representative projects, as well as issues related to Andean culture; health and education; narrative and poetry; post-pandemic work, etc.

Alfredo pointed out, for example: “When we start by reading our books, it is not that we gain a habit: it is that we lose a fear. And we discover the dignity that dwells in those pages, the certification of the worth of my own memory, of our memory ... "
