Quintana Roo rights and education reform initiatives

Overview

In Quintana Roo, government officials and legislators are advancing initiatives focused on expanding rights and protections for specific demographics.

Governor Mara Lezama Espinosa initiated a public consultation for the Law of the Rights of Young People, inviting citizens aged 12 to 29 to contribute to a legal framework covering education, employment, and health.

Concurrently, state legislators have introduced reforms to promote inclusive education. These proposals include making Mexican Sign Language a mandatory part of basic education to support the hearing-impaired community and reforming the State Education Law to protect neurodivergent students, such as those with autism, from discrimination and segregation.
