Treaty of Middelburg
I would love to see a world where freedom isn’t limited by inequality, financial struggles, or political restrictions. Everyone should have the right to express themselves, access opportunities, and live without fear of oppression. True freedom means breaking down barriers whether social, economic, or digital so that people can make their own choices and shape their own futures.

Why do you want to participate?
I got invited to become an ambassador bacuese I am walking the El camino Santiogo de Compostella.
What does freedom mean to you?
Freedom, to me, means having the power to live on my own terms going wherever my heart desires, doing whatever fuels my soul, and embracing life without limitations or restrictions.
What are the biggest challenges?
Young people today struggle to balance independence with societal expectations while also facing financial barriers like student debt and rising living costs. Digital freedom is another challenge, with online surveillance and social media pressure limiting true self-expression. Additionally, political and legal restrictions in some regions prevent them from fully exercising their rights and freedoms.
Do you have a message?
Freedom isn’t just about having choices it’s about having the power to shape your own life without fear or limitation. Let’s work toward a world where everyone, regardless of background, has the opportunity to live, speak, and dream freely. True freedom comes when we uplift each other and break down the barriers that hold us back.
