My second semester is here and i am supposed to write the research paper. In my mind and my heart, i like so much doing a research about mapping but in reality i want to see also the other issues that are impacting the community.

I had option to make; being in a country like Chile you got to learn about disasters and resilience but most importantly the centralisation government and how it works. The impact it makes on the implementation of projects to solve community problems.

I had much options to choose and decide for my research. But i decided to combine between my interests and the reality to conclude that my research shall be about transportation as the theme and will be on the side of the community. It will assess the community reactions on the government projects.
