I joined ALBA because :
I believe I share ALBA views in many ways. My actions and concerns are aligned with ALBA Mission. In my career, conscious awareness concerning inequities was progressively increasing. In part due to personal experiences, also through theoretical readings and mainly acknowledging the impact of them in the results of my research. Ironically, worldwide tragic events from 2020, allowed that these introspections and isolate initiatives become visible and unsilent. My affiliation with ALBA will help me to find other people who share and support these values, to learn from them and in synergy make stronger actions towards equity and respect to diversity.
