The human rights approach in the urban policy of Mexico City
Main Article Content
Abstract
Mexico City’s countless challenges embedded in its policy and urban management, to say the disorderly growth, the absence of satisfaction of public interest and social exclusion, have had negative effects on the quality of life of its entire population, as it has been exposed in the complaints received in the Mexico City’s Human Rights Commission, whose investigations regarding human rights violations have been able to identify inherent problems in the absence of integral planning, institutional weakness and lack of political will to comply with international human rights standards. The channels of the New Constitution and the adoption of this approach can contribute to the existence of a democratic, inclusive and sustainable city, where the exercise of human rights is guarantee and with it the full development of the people who live in and transit by Mexico City.
