Chile Needs To Unite Behind The Goals Of Reducing Poverty And Creating More Equal Opportunities So That Everyone Can Benefit From What The Country Has To Offer.

We Need To Have A Broad Debate So That The New Chilean Constitution Is Representative Of Everyone. I Am Convinced That It Cannot Just Be Developed By An Expert Group. First, People At All Levels Will Be Given An Opportunity To Provide Input. They Should Be Allowed To Express Their Opinions About The Kind Of Society They Would Like To Live In.
