Digital safety and violence prevention initiatives in Mexico

Overview

In Mexico, educational and electoral institutions are implementing initiatives to address digital safety and conduct.

Initially, the Universidad Autónoma de Tamaulipas (UAT) joined a national forum focused on the impact of digital devices on youth. The initiative, involving the Secretaría de Educación Pública (SEP) and UNESCO, aimed to create safer digital environments and promote digital literacy to protect the mental health of young people.

Subsequently, the Electoral Institute of the State of Querétaro (IEEQ) launched the ‘Violet Democracy’ initiative at the Autonomous University of Querétaro (UAQ). This program focuses on preventing digital violence within the electoral sphere, specifically addressing gender-based political violence against women through tools like an ‘electoral violentometer.’ The effort also includes training on cybersecurity and personal account protection to ensure secure participation in digital spaces.
