Until the turn of the millennium the struggles about Pablo Escobar's successor continued, but from 2002 Medellín began to change and the city started to invest heavily in infrastructure and public education. Today the “City of Eternal Spring” is one of the most innovative metropolises in the world. An essential part in this transformation process are community-based initiatives aiming to fight poverty in the city ́s poorest neighbourhoods.

One impressive project of urban change is the densely populated Moravia district, once Medellín's municipal rubbish dump with an open-air mountain of trash surrounded by a large shantytown, whose residents used to live in almost absolute poverty. Plenty of local community-run projects have transformed Moravia into a model urban centre. Learn about the origins, evolution, and highlights of Moravia and its social processes by the hand of 3 generations of community leaders.

Experience the uniqueness of the transformation of this territory characterized by receiving the main national migratory waves, where the same community built the infrastructure of the territory thanks to self-management and community organization guided mostly by inspiring women. Support directly a community-based project of Moravia and help them to fulfill their dreams of a better life.
