The Camino a Casa room of the Memory, Peace and Reconciliation Center is committed to memory processes that recognize children as active subjects with the full capacity to reflect and dialogue about the recent past of violence and struggles for the construction of democracy and peace. This document is written under the metaphor of a tree: it is proposed that change and movement become a possibility for continued growth, therefore the role of adults is related to being the nutrients of the tree. In so far as their daily work can contribute to other axes, which would be the branches. And finally, children play the role of caretakers of memory - they are the tree - based on their authenticity and creativity.
