In 2006, the Citizens Council for Public Security proposed to create an initiative to promote values and culture of lawfulness in Nuevo Leon. After having created the proposal, a public consultation was realized that same year. In January 2007, this initiative was approved by the Honorable Congress of Nuevo Leon.

Through the Promotion of Human Values and Culture of Lawfulness law, the State will boost and support the participation of public, private, and social institutions so they can engage in actions aimed towards the promotion of a culture of universal values and lawfulness.

The Council for the Promotion of Human Values and Culture of Lawfulness was created in October 2007 with the characteristics of being an organization integrated by the representative groups and institutions of the public, private, and social sectors.

The Meeting of Human Values and Culture and Lawfulness 2010 is a call to action, an opportunity to transform your concerns into solutions, and an invitation to take on a proactive role to improve your lives and communities.
