Shakira participated in the “I Love America” campaign on Friday aimed at encouraging increased awareness in Latin America and the Caribbean of the contribution the USA makes to the region.
The event was staged within the framework of the annual gathering of the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB). Shakira, who recently returned to Miami after starting work on a new album, was joined by Juanes, Alejandro Sanz and Ricky Martin at the event.
“Us, the artists of the foundation ALAS, hope that the alliance with the IDB offers new opportunities to thousands of children who live in the poverty in Latin America,” Shakira said at the event.
The IDB also announced plans to join the foundation ALAS that is organizing the Live Earth Latin America concerts in May this year.
