In this week’s podcast, I invited Luis Alvarado Bruzual to talk about the crises in Venezuela. Not only does he explain all the political changes that have happened in Venezuela since the 90s, he also shares his personal experiences of his life in Venezuela. He talks about not having food in the supermarket, his brother leaving the country and also the protests that have been happening. With being the founder of the Vayalo Foundation, an organisation that focuses on youth empowerment and sustainable development, Luis gives us a rare insight on what young people are doing on the ground to give Venezuela a better future.
