This year, I participated in two summer camps here in Peace Corps Paraguay. Check out the videos below:
Campamento Jaikoporâ was a health and leadership camp to train youth as peer educators in their schools, and communities.

Translation:
I love Paraguay! I like nature, I like the countryside, I like terere, I like chipa, I like the Parguayan family, I like speaking guarani!
But, there are things that need to change.
We, the Paraguayan youth, have the power and the responsibility to fight for:
-Gender Equality
-Nonviolence
-Healthy Lifestyes
-For a country free of discimination
-For a better country
Campamento Jaikoporâ!!
I also participated in Camp GLOW (Girls Leading Our World), which is a leadership camp focusing on Paraguayan girls.
Translation:
I am strong. I am valued. I am beautiful. I am imperfect. I am myself.
The women who speak in the video are offering advice to the girls and the youth reflect on their experiences.
Peace, Love, and Summer Camp.
