The Organismo Público Local Electoral (OPLE Veracruz) implemented a civic education program for preschool children in Xalapa, Mexico. Utilizing the story ‘Una gran lección en el pueblo Yarpon’, the initiative sought to teach values including respect, inclusion, solidarity, and democratic coexistence.

Activities were held at the Experimental Kindergarten and the Child Care Center, both affiliated with the Escuela Benemérita y Centenaria Normal Veracruzana. To reinforce these concepts, children participated in a playful simulation of democratic processes by casting votes in a ballot box to win prizes.
