Mexican university academic and environmental initiatives

Overview

Mexican universities are implementing various initiatives focused on environmental sustainability, academic innovation, and international cooperation.

In Culiacán, the Instituto Tecnológico de Culiacán participated in the ‘15vo. Reciclón 2026’, hosting workshops for children to promote responsible consumption. Similarly, the Universidad Veracruzana launched the ‘Si la traes, te la llevas’ campaign to encourage the use of reusable items and reduce single-use plastic waste in public spaces.
