WORLD / AMERICAS Hitting the mark By Reuters Published: May 27, 2021 06:38 PM When Colombian community leader Veronica Fonseca raised her hand to speak at a meeting hosted by Bogota's mayor, she never expected her ideas on improving transport in the capital would be included in the city's plans.

"I'd seen cable car lines working in other areas of the city and I told the mayor that's what our community needs too," said Fonseca, outside her home in the steep San Dionisio neighborhood surrounded by forested mountains. When officials added her suggestion to their plans, "I felt included. I never imagined that my ideas would be taken into account," she told Reuters.
