When invited to give a greeting at school for Perú’s National Holiday, I thought immediately of the message sent out last year from Irish President Michael D. Higgins for the 200th Anniversary of Peruvian Independence from Spain. I also recalled the fact that President Higgins was awarded Peru’s highest honour in 2017 at Lima’s presidential palace. The honour – the Order of the Sun, or el Orden del Sol – was given to the Irish President in recognition of "his interest in the defence and promotion of human rights, peace, democracy and inclusive citizenship, as well as culture" (Collyns).
