VOICED: Bandera olimpica en la favela

The Olympic flag was brought to Rio de Janeiro's favelas after being received by President Dilma Rousseff in Brasilia. The flag's arrival in Complexo Dalemao, a symbolic location once marked by conflict, now pacified, was celebrated with a mix of local festivity and patriotic spirit. The community views the Olympics as a unique opportunity, especially for children, to engage and participate. Brazilian Olympic medalists from the London Games accompanied the flag, symbolizing inclusivity for the favela residents in the upcoming Olympic festivities.
