It s Arantza Barba, 24 years old, from Santa Cruz de la Sierra, in Bolivia.

Arantza scored the highest marks from the jury that examined one by one the projects that the Ambassadors of Progress, from every corner of the planet, have stayed in Puglia, discovering its natural beauty and enjoying the extraordinary reception given by the Associazione Culturale In Progress, organizer of the event, which availed itself of the assistance of Messapia Hotel in Marina di Leuca (LE ) and its tireless staff.

The event, which has received appreciation from the President of the Italiajn Republic, Giorgio Napolitano, is the answer that the whole world has been waiting for: not just beauty for its own, it is time for the women to see their efforts in social works as recognized.

After ten days spent discovering the region of Puglia, enriched with the delicious regional cuisine, the final evening was a triumph of colors: from the magnificent national costumes worn by the contestants (the prize went to the Puerto Rican Kristina Velez, the "pearl of the Caribbean") to those of the choreographies, with particular reference to the tribute to the Pizzica dance, which was dedicated to one of the funniest moments of the evening.
