Citizen Agenda Nuevo León 2015

The Citizen Agenda for Nuevo León and the Metropolitan Area of Monterrey was an initiative that sought to shorten the distance between governors and citizens on the eve of the 2015 electoral process, in which the municipal presidencies and the state governorship were renewed. The agenda was integrated thanks to the participation in working groups of 120 specialists who identified 55 priority situations that should be addressed in Nuevo Leon, on 9 themes: Security, Justice and Human Rights; Employment and Competitiveness; Poverty and Inequality; Education; Urban Development; Mobility; Environment; Efficient Government; and Reliable Government. For each of the 55 situations identified, the following questions were answered: Why is it a priority? What to do? and How to do it?
