Orden de la Democracia Simón Bolívar

This is the official document of the resolution of the Colombian House of Representatives to condecorate Mathis Wackernagel with the Orden de la Democracia Simon Bolívar. ​I was honored simultaneously with Margarita Marino de Botero, a giant of the environmental movement of both Colombia and the world. She was also one of the 18 members of the Brundtland Commission. The best is, she continues to inspire young researchers. As we walked together to a restaurant, we started with 5 people and by the time we arrived at the restaurant, we were already 20 people, a good portion of them we never met before. This is who she is: An unstoppable enabler.
