Citizen Consultation for the General Law on Forced Disappearance and Disappearance by Individuals. First Consultation: Guadalajara
The Citizen Consultation for the General Law on Forced Disappearance and Disappearance by Individuals was created in 2015 by relatives and family members, who deliberated on the points that this Law must consider in order to achieve a comprehensive idea regarding the phenomenon of the disappearance of individuals in Mexico. As of August 2015, the consultations were carried out in collaboration with organizations from different regions of the country and were socialized through the blog "Curul 501", with the aim that all those interested would know the contributions of the relatives of the missing persons and that the government would take into account the suggestions and contributions derived from the consultation.
