The government of Jalisco, Mexico, launched the ‘Agenda de Paz en Jalisco’ (Peace Agenda in Jalisco), a collaborative platform involving citizen security councils, universities, and civil organizations. The initiative aims to coordinate efforts to address the root causes of violence, including addiction prevention, mental health, and violence against women and children.

Simultaneously, the State Commission for Higher Education Planning (COEPES) established five strategic working groups. These groups are tasked with aligning university actions with social and economic needs through innovation and technological adaptation, with participating institutions expected to present work plans by November 3.
