With a strong and assertive stance Monica Encina, spokeswoman to LESVOS, began the formal event, in which she emphasized "Lesvos is born to insert lesbian women in a more fluid and direct dialogue with Paraguayan society. We feel the need to advocate for public policies to protect human rights, especially those that relate to the reality we live as lesbians and all LGBT people in Paraguay"
The event went well with musical performances and Rocio Robledo Tamara Acevedo , who also gave their support to the initiatives of Lesvos, in addition to the band's The Wine House, who sang songs in a tribute to Amy Winehouse.
