Alejandra and Alex are siblings and Special Olympics Youth Leaders from El Salvador who will lead a Youth Innovation Project to unite people through music by connecting with local music schools to hold a music workshop for participants with and without intellectual disabilities.
Over the course of 12 months, participants will attend multiple workshops ending with a final performance and demonstration of the skills they learned. Alejandra and Alex plan to promote their project through social media spreading the message of inclusion and creativity to over 14,000 people. Alejandra and Alex are giving others the opportunity to feel the same support they give to each other as siblings and to express themselves through music, inspiring new Youth Leaders and growing the Unified Generation.
