Why Mérida
Capital of Yucatán and gateway to the Maya world, Mérida pairs colonial plazas with easy access to Chichén Itzá and Uxmal. Its emblem is the ceiba — Ya'axché — the sacred tree the Maya believed connected earth, sky and the underworld.
It is a fitting symbol for a congress about connection: bringing minds together to transform the lives of children with neurological conditions.
