MS Colombia and MS United States kick off the week in support of people with Down's syndrome organized by the Firm's Social Action group on the occasion of International Down's Syndrome Day on April 21
Around 30 professionals from our Bogota office participated in the Active Pause Workshop organized by the Social Action Colombia group in collaboration with the Down Syndrome Corporation. During the workshop, young people from the Corporation taught our professionals how to recover energy at work and avoid poor posture through physical exercise and breathing.
Professionals from our Boston office participated in a training and networking session to help Best Buddies youth in their transition into the world of work. Best Buddies is an NGO dedicated to creating opportunities for an inclusive life for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD). During the session, Management Solutions volunteers were able to give advice on financial literacy, interview preparation, CV writing or how to choose a career path, in a relaxed atmosphere.
These events will continue in the coming days with activities in our other offices, including the #calcetinesdesparejados and #lotsofsocks campaigns, which the Firm joins globally to raise awareness about diversity and inclusion of people with intellectual disabilities.
