Marijuana Debate
Cancun was the host of the first of five forums in the national debate about the use of marijuana. Information on legislation and regulations from 14 countries was compiled and discussed.
The local academic community participated, including the President of the University of Quintana Roo, Ángel Rivero Palomo.
UNAM alum, National Political Debate Champion and National Youth Award winner, Luis Miguel López García, participated in various forums, explaining the forms in which regulation of marijuana could be made available for those who wish to use it but still protect the population in general.
During the debates, cannabis was focused on in a way that not only considers safety but also the perspective of public health.
The objective of this initiative is for the federal government to regulate the growth, sale, and use of cannabis which is still illegal.
