The sísí that moves Cartagena: the bet that became a citizen movement and transformed the conversation about the city

The article discusses the transformation of 'Cartagena sí' from a creative campaign by El Universal into a broader civic movement in Cartagena, Colombia. Initially launched in 2024 as a narrative initiative led by Catalina Araújo Gerdts, the campaign aimed to inspire pride and optimism among residents by highlighting positive stories and community efforts. It quickly gained momentum, generating extensive content across social media, print, and digital platforms, along with public initiatives like murals, forums, and cultural events. The movement evolved beyond the original campaign, engaging citizens who became ambassadors promoting the message locally. The campaign's success reflects a shift from mere storytelling to collective civic engagement, emphasizing critical optimism rather than naive enthusiasm.
