At the same time, we would like to thank each of the participants who, with their best disposition and leadership, made the 37th International Convention of FIDA possible. This time virtually, for more than 73 countries of the world and 5 continents that work for the rights of children and women, an important work that has been carried out since the 1950s, a long trajectory that has been in operation for 67 years and that today we are pleased to present the new President of FIDA International, Carolina Ríos Villota from Colombia, many congratulations.
