When you run into someone on the street you haven't seen in a while, the question arises: "How are you doing?" "How Are We Doing?" is a more inclusive approach that is less likely to discourage potential answers. If we ask the city, the question—and consequently the answer—would be just as inclusive. This is a highly recommended event to attend, as we are all, as citizens, part of the current situation and, now more than ever, part of the potential transformations for Lima.
