Eight out of ten people who lead social organizations are women. In addition to working and taking care of their families, they dedicate hours, almost always for free, to solving the problems of their communities. But most are over 60 years old and very few young people want to take over. Who will take care of the neighborhoods when they can no longer do so is a question that is beginning to worry them.

Caring alone, with no one to share the burden, is one of the most repeated experiences in the focus groups that the Colunga Childhood Observatory conducted to build the agenda “Early Childhood: Well-being, gaps, and proposals to strengthen public policy in Chile,” which has just been launched.

This column is different from the ones we usually publish in Hablemos de amor. This time it is not a story written to be told, but an email that a friend wrote to another who is no longer here. We decided to publish it just as it arrived, because sometimes love also looks like this, in a friend who keeps talking to the other after her death.

How do you learn to live with the absence of a daughter who died unexpectedly? Isabella Belmar was 20 years old when she lost her life in an accident caused by a drunk driver. A psychologist, a friend of her family, writes about the grief of her parents, who for more than two years also had to endure hearings, postponements, and a sentence they felt was insufficient.
