Acceso Universal e inclusión a nivel social, económico y de derechos humanos: ¿Cómo llegamos a un diagnóstico positivo para obtener líneas de trabajo comunes a las múltiples partes interesadas? Considerando los obstáculos, barreras y desventajas que constituye el acceso y la inclusión en los diversos ámbitos, los que se vieron aumentados con la pandemia a nivel global, es necesario entre las múltiples partes interesadas llegar a obtener líneas de trabajo comunes revirtiendo en forma positiva lo acontecido. Para ello cada parte, en el rol que le corresponde, realizará una puesta a punto del estado en que se encuentra respecto a estos temas, y mencionar cuál es el diagnóstico al que llegaron y cómo en su conjunto pueden crear líneas específicas, con incentivos e instrumentos concretos para obtenerlas y fomentar el acceso y la inclusión, llegando a un consenso, utilizando la confianza existente entre ellos. Este consenso se convertirá en una contribución para explicar este aspecto al IGF, indicando su propósito de llegar a todos y achicar las fallas y grietas que puedan existir en el conjunto de las personas. ____ Speakers

About Bogota
- Bogota is the capital of Colombia, the third highest capital in the world (after La Paz and Quito), as it is located at an average of 2,640 meters above sea level. It is located in the center of Colombia, in the natural region known as the Bogotá savannah. The city is where most of the country’s state and economic processes take place. Bogota has been the scene of some of the most relevant events for Colombia and LACIGF 16 will take place precisely in the historic center of the city, a duality between the ancient and the modern.
Weather conditions
Bogota’s climate is variable and can change radically. With an altitude of 2,640 meters above sea level, the average daytime temperature is 14°C (57°F) and at night 10°C (50°F).
Airport
The International Airport is Colombia’s main airport. It is located within Bogota, about 15 km from the event venue – Universidad Externado de Colombia – Centro Historico La Calendaria. 25 minutes by car.

Mobile applications: applications such as Uber can also be used to move around Bogota, their prices and times are usually similar to cabs.
Public transportation: This is the cheapest option. First you must take an Alimentador, a free bus, that goes from the airport to Portal El Dorado to access the Transmilenio transport system. The fare costs 2,950 COP and you must add 7,000 COP, which is the price of the travel card, approximately 3 USD. Service to downtown: Easy Route 1 Portal Eldorado – Universidades.
