The Chihuahua State Government has implemented several initiatives to promote arts, sciences, and innovation within the region.

In late August, the Secretariat of Culture announced the winners of the 45th edition of the Chihuahua Vanguardia in Arts and Sciences Award. Recipients across various disciplines, including social sciences, technological sciences, and performing arts, were awarded 100,000 pesos each to support their projects.

Following this, the Secretariat of Innovation and Economic Development issued an invitation for students to participate in the 2026 Chihuahua Science and Engineering Fair (FECI). Scheduled for November, the event encourages high school and university students to present research in fields such as biology, engineering, and computer systems, offering a pathway to represent the state at the Mexican National Science and Engineering Fair.
