According to statistics from the Mixteca Center for Integral Peasant Development, a quarter of all young men have emigrated in search of survival for themselves and their families. The region confronts the double challenge of fighting the negative impact of erosion on their lands and the effects of free trade. Faced with this challenge, CEDICAM offers innovative solutions to forge a sustainable, ecological future based on the ancient culture of the Mixtec people. Laura Carlsen is Director of the IRC Americas Program (www.americaspolicy.org) in Mexico City, where she has been a writer and political analyst for more than two decades.
