This campaign seeks to empower, advice and mostly to raise awareness on young college students in piracy matters and the right use of trademarks. It also seeks to educate young people all over the world through small presentations that cover subjects related to Intellectual Property and mostly to ensure that people know the consequences of the incorrect use of it.

In the conference were covered topics of copyrights, piracy, identification of counterfeit products, consequences of buying counterfeit products, for both consumers and companies, and there were also shared some of the most relevant transactions Graciela Cruz has performed in all these subjects in order to encourage the correct use of trademarks.
Finally, the questions and answers section was covered in order to make sure that the students had a clearer idea of what implies the protection of ideas, piracy, and the Intellectual Property practice itself in the rest of the world, specifically in Honduras.
