I joined #WSCE2025 in Busan, Korea — a key space to rethink smarter, more inclusive cities.

Thanks to Seoul National University for the invitation and for strengthening the partnership with EAFIT University.
Asia–Latin America cooperation is essential for urban innovation and climate adaptation.

Looking forward to representing EAFIT University at the #WSCE in Korea 🇰🇷
