Silvia’s biggest passion relies on inspiring parents, teachers and school administrators to establish communities based on respect and trust for the child.

It's only by designing inclusive environments where children feel safe, motivated and proud to share their true identities, that we empower them to utilize their whole repertoire, enabling them to make sense of their world and reach their full potential.
