As the final week marks the end of my Leadership in Action programme, we prepared for the final touches of the website, translating it to Spanish.

In the final days in Mexico City, some of us booked a tour to Puebla to explore the rich historical culture in the city near Mexico City. The city features better preservation of the historical and colonial atmosphere with their colourful buildings. This city also houses churches that features a merge of local indigenous and colonial catholic culture. However, on our way back, Mexico City faces one of the heaviest rain within years. After our van traveled across the traffic jam, it traveled across the deep puddles in the city streets and water splashes around outside of the window. This has also reminded me of the frequent downpours in Hong Kong in recent weeks. As our climate continues to worsen, it is of utmost important to reflect on the root cause of such drastic change to our climate, and try our best to reverse the damage we as humanity has caused.

Unwillingly, as we reached the final days of the LiA program, we had an internal closing as we conclude our experiences, shared our wishes to each other, and cherished our remaining time together in this wonderful city. On my last night in Mexico City, we held the Farewell Party in Huerto Roma Verde, where we shared and presented our final deliverables to the partner organisations. Everyone presented well and showed gratitude to our experience and opportunities in these short but meaningful six weeks. Due to my flight and upcoming experiences in Hong Kong, I had to catch a flight right after we finish our presentations. As I say farewell and wait for the Uber to arrive, we shared our final wishes, fistbumps and hugs. I will miss the time spent in this amazing City, as well as the people and the experiences I have had in this place. Hopefully, all of us can share our experience and insights from Mexico City to our local environment and continue our passion in transforming the World.
