Argentina Lecture Explores ‘Dignity’
Written by UPF-Argentina
Buenos Aires, Argentina—“Dignity” was the focus of a talk UPF-Argentina’s Ambassadors Cycle program (1) hosted on June 14, 2017 at the Peace Embassy in Buenos Aires.
Mr. Bernardo Del Guercio, an educator and a counselor, was the speaker. He explored different aspects of dignity—sense, integrity, empathy, wisdom, courage, freedom and humor. He used quotes, gave examples and told historical anecdotes in his talk, including a story about an antagonistic encounter between Argentine writer Jorge Luis Borges, (who died on June 14, 1986), and the revolutionary Ernesto “Che” Guevara (who was born on June 14, 1928). The story stimulated discussion.
Before Mr. Del Guercio spoke, UPF-Argentina showed a video introducing UPF.
