Teotihuacan, the enigmatic city of the gods, protects the material remains of one of the most impressive cities of antiquity.   A site of reverence, heritage, and symbol of the cultural, artistic, political, and religious wealth of the Mesoamerican cultures.  It is also home to a vibrant community, which has fought through the centuries to keep alive its traditions, identity, and territory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For the last twenty years, the Red Ind\u00edgena de Turismo de M\u00e9xico A.C (RITA)<\/a> has promoted tourism as a trigger for community development throughout the area. For this reason, on May 3, 2022, the Equitable Origin (EO)<\/a> team, led by the director of CEFO, Joaqu\u00edn Wray, and the CEFO coordinator in Mexico, Metztli Hern\u00e1ndez; had the opportunity to meet in this iconic place with the leadership of RITA, its president Ricardo Campos Quezada, and two founding members: Roberto Campos Hernandez and Jos\u00e9 Antonio Medina Oviedo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ricardo Campos Quezada and Joaqu\u00edn Wray stated before the Ibero-American Foundation for Development (FIDE)<\/a> that it is in everyone’s best interest to establish an alliance. The notion of connectivity was the common thread of the meeting. It leads from the lines of action set in 2020: promoting the CEFO Ind\u00edgena in Mexico and improving internet access and connectivity in rural areas. In addition, we discussed the importance of generating new leads and contributing to the strengthening of the Network through the development of technological capabilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Among the agreements developed at this meeting, the following stand out: holding a new edition of the Seminar on Strengthening Indigenous Rights; the renewal of the alliance between EO and RITA (to be held in June 2022); the presentation of the CEFO initiative during the Rita General Assembly, and to generate within the framework of the 20th anniversary of the Red Ind\u00edgena de Turismo de M\u00e9xico A.C (RITA), audiovisual content for the CEFO library, which accounts for the trajectory of the organization.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Later, we had the opportunity to visit the site museum and the archaeological zone of Teotihuac\u00e1n, obtaining a glimpse of its enormous artistic, cultural, and environmental importance. We also visited the CCT\u00a0 to learn about the state of the property and the requirements for its inauguration. Finally, we returned to the \u00abTechinanco\u00bb restaurant, one of the most successful ventures promoted by RITA in San Mart\u00edn de las Pir\u00e1mides. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A big thank you to all of those who made this meeting possible!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
