Since 2004 Peace Corps Mexico has been engaged with Mexican institutions and communities in the spirit of international cooperation that is both technical and cultural in nature. We work closely with our hosts and strategic partners, including the Mexican Agency for International Development Cooperation (AMEXCID), the Ministry of Environment and Natural Resources (SEMARNAT), and the Ministry of Public Education (SEP), to design programs that address some of Mexico’s national priorities. are then recruited, trained, vetted, and ultimately assigned to Mexican host-communities and host-institutions to carry-out activities that contribute to the aforementioned national priorities as well as local priorities. Volunteers are also expected to adapt and integrate into Mexican society and culture while actively sharing their own identity, culture, and unique perspectives. More than 500 Volunteers have served in Mexico, collaborating in the areas of economic development, education, and the environment. Government's premier international volunteering agency, the Peace Corps sends passionate and skilled Americans abroad to collaborate on projects that advance both American and host country priorities. This year, the agency commemorates 65 years of promoting world peace and friendship through Volunteer service while partnering with America250 to encourage more Americans to give back. Since 1961, the Peace Corps has played a vital role in advancing U.S. global engagement through the work of close to 250,000 Volunteers serving in 144 host countries.
