Scholarship to USA

In Febuary I shall be traveling in USA, with FURP (http://www.furp.org.ar/Ingles.htm), an organization which promotes future political leaders.

After giving an exam and an interview I was chosen with 60 other young leaders from all round the country to participate of a Seminar, where we met with different leaders of our society: politicians, business men, journalists, labor union leaders, military men, ex presidents, etc. On the last day we had a Seminar, in which we had to present a random topic and defend it against a board who asked questions. Luckily I was one of the 10 people selected and shall have a similar experience in the USA, meeting with local and international leaders.

We shall be from the 9th to the 24th of Febuary in Austin, from the 24th to the 8th of March in Wshington DC and from then to the 14 the in New York. We shall be meeting leaders from different sectors and will have the chance to hear their experience and interview them.
