The youth congress "Lo que de Verdad Importa" (What Really Matters) returned to the Palau de Congressos in Palma de Mallorca on Tuesday, November 9, to convey universal human values such as tolerance, self-improvement, respect or solidarity to the youngest.
The congress was also streamed online completely free of charge, so that schools / universities, young people and families could enjoy it from their centers or from their homes and from anywhere in the world.
Values such as Solidarity, Effort or Optimism were the protagonists of this session through the testimonies of people such as:
