What was the most memorable aspect of PGC 2024 for you?
For me, the most memorable aspect of PGC 2024 was the commitment I upheld with each challenge that came up. Sometimes I would arrive feeling exhausted, but as soon as I saw the proposed topic, the motivation to research and write about it made my fatigue disappear. Each topic was so interesting that I genuinely enjoyed the opportunity to dive deeper and share my perspectives. This experience was significant because it pushed me out of my comfort zone, as I hadn’t previously expressed myself publicly on these subjects. PGC not only inspired me to learn more but also to connect and communicate in a way I hadn’t explored before.
