Peruvian President Martin Vizcarra on Wednesday affirmed that his administration undertakes efforts, so Peruvians can have equal opportunities, while it
fights against discrimination.
In this sense,
children handed manifestos and requests to him, which he deemed as completely justifiable.
"It doesn't matter if we come from the coast, highland, jungle, or if we speak a different language. It doesn't matter if we come from different cultures," he pointed out.
Likewise, the statesman indicated that another request —made by the
minors— is to work together in order to protect the environment.
Furthermore, President Vizcarra affirmed he will visit the educational institutions where Tinkuy 2019 children study, with the purpose of learning and attending to the problems they currently face.
Remarks were made during
Tinkuy 2019 ceremony, which took place at the Government Palace in Lima.
This event served as a gathering to promote the exchange, as well as appreciation of cultural and linguistic diversity of diverse native peoples,
Afro-Peruvian communities, and other cultures.
On the occasion, the President was joined by Education Minister Flor Pablo and First Lady Maribel Diaz.
