Medellin: From violence to innovation (Virtual Guided Tour)

Summary

Medellín, a city that until a few years ago nobody recommended, much less thought to visit, is today a destination recommended by The New York Times and National Geographic, for being a city that has been reinventing itself from an extremely violent past, to be in the Currently one of the leading cities in terms of urban planning and social innovation. In this ONLINE EXPERIENCE we are going to redefine the way to discover a city and its culture, and why not, motivate you if you have not already done so, to come and feel the magic of Medellín. To develop our dynamics, we will use a map of Medellín as a game board, where you will find all the public transport lines with their respective stops drawn. We will use photographs to take a virtual tour, in which YOU will be in charge of navigating, moving around the city and discovering each of the places that marked different events in the history of Medellín. As host, I will be the moderator of the dynamics and in charge of providing the different explanations, but I will also be one more participant in it.
