The retreat was based on the Partners of the America’s motto: Connect, Serve, Change Lives. It followed the mission by showing leaders from Goiás the importance of service and working together. Through creating new leaders and volunteer projects in our community, we seek to make changes to our environment for the better.​​

Following our motto, “Development through Empowerment,” PartnersCampus Goiania has worked to make changes in our community to create change in the world, not as an effective actor, but as the tool used by the actors. The leadership retreat was another way in which we strive to help the local community, preparing the leaders of tomorrow for their legacies.
