The plan positions city halls as the front line for making social rights effective under the 4T.

Overview

  • Senator Lorenia Valles said the Municipalist School will begin this year to professionalize local officials in public management and policy design aligned with 4T principles.
  • Recent Encounters for Development were held in Nogales, Ímuris and Santa Ana with Morena leaders and municipal authorities, including Cajeme mayor Javier Lamarque.
