Chess unites us, connects us, and so we have organized a Solidary Children's Tournament in which children from different countries connected to each other, creating a network between different cultures reclaiming that even being thousands of kilometres, we are all equal and we all deserve to live well without unequal opportunities faced by many today.
The tournament was online, not face to face: In each country they put the boards and people playing, but in front, instead of an opponent they had a volunteer that have had a screen where games were broadcasted live to know what piece move accordance with what is emitted in the screen; via the Internet. Everything was retransmitted live from each country.
The game system was a league with a speed game of 20 minutes for the entire game; 10 minutes per player and 10 more between games.
Participants were paired by drawing lot having one team per country and conditioned by guidelines established in the bases of the tournament.
Because the time zone differences, an optimal schedule for the entire event was applied; in the countries of America the games were played in the morning, in Europe and Africa in the afternoon and in Asia in the evening; the festival concluded with a dinner or with a meal, respectively.
It must be emphasized that being a solidary tournament, the spirit of personal competition was left aside, with the goal of the tournament to be a human connection between children from different countries, besides playing chess, they played asking questions each other: each round was a round of questions from opponents about the culture of their country, their school... so that emphasized each other.
Therefore, we have not given much relevance to the results of the tournament, because there really was not a single winner, but we all win enriching ourselves with the culture and society of each country. One of the goals was to show everyone that we are all equal and that we all deserve a decent and happy life, especially the world's children, and this is something that the AHSI 4.0 system has achieved.
