My life is about achieving peace in the world. Last 2 years I’ve been discovering how can we accomplish that, and after a lot of research and meditation, I’ve realized that peace doesn’t exist because of a human attitude: selfishness. I also realized that most people start losing their hope to make a change on this. That’s why, last summer I founded the social organization Clave Paz. My great achievement is that I’ve been able to involved people in the cause of peace.

When I was 5 years old, my brother showed me videos of how pollution was affecting our world. Since then, I’ve always wanted to do something. When I was 10, I did a huge research about Global Warming and I was always trying to aware everyone about it. The same year, I convinced 3 mates to help me save the world, so we started this “club” of research and we were always working on it, in school, on weekends, always. I was constantly changing of school, so on 8th grade I assisted to my first UN simulation. This event impacted me, and showed me that my life was going to be dedicated to help the world. The same year I got involved in a foundation to help the tarahumaras, and as I learned more about them, I knew that my country was missing more than what I imagined. In 9th grade I started a social service campaign in my school, I worked too hard on it, and I guess I’m accomplished a lot. That year I assisted to a lot of leadership events and congresses where I learned too much. Althought I saw the little changes I was creating, I felt it was nothing, and as I got deeper in the conflicts of my society, I saw crime, environmental issues, poor people, violence, there were just too many issues and I decided I was going to create an organization that would be able to fight the entire crisis.

I finished 9th grade with 7 UN simulations (with 3 awards), with truly friends, with a lot of skills and preparing to create what today is Clave Paz. I also assisted to the congress “Selider” and I have to say that it just showed me again what my life is for.

Today I’m dedicating my days to work in Clave Paz, we are a group of young people making a difference; we’re implementing values and changing our culture, we’re fighting poverty and pollution, and we’re giving hope to people, because as time goes more people get’s involved.

Sometimes people say I’m too young, I’m but still I have done a lot, just imagine what I’ll do in 5 years. Believe me, I’ll do something great for our family Earth, but I can’t if I’m alone. Please help me, please teach me what I’m missing, please choose to participate in “One Young World”.
