Mahatma Gandhi said "be the change you want to see in the world." It took me a while to understand the power of this phrase until one day I understood the message of empowerment and change that it conveyed. From that reflection, María Sostenible was born. 3 years ago I opened a blog called María Sostenible, I am an activist for climate change and a promoter of sustainable development. During this experience I have traveled to many places to learn about the risks due to climate change and I have met young activists with stories full of courage that I have tried to show in my blog. My travel story is about social justice and global connections for change the world. I am a resident of a developing country 3 years ago I opened a blog called María Sostenible, I am an activist for climate change and a promoter of sustainable development. During this experience I have traveled to many places to learn about the risks due to climate change and I have met young activists with stories full of courage that I have tried to show in my blog. I want to gain experience and learn how i can improve and write better stories about this for create a bigger impact in the world and my country. During the next 3 months im going to be a project supervisor in Azuero,Panama in a very lower resources community i want to show the world how to empower the base of the pyramid.
