Ask:
I am interested in five agendas:
1. Sustainable development, which necessarily incorporates social progress, care for the environment and the development of fairer and more equitable societies for all its inhabitants.
2. Renewable energies to boost the most efficient production chains, since Mexico’s recovery depends to a great extent on its commercial integration with the United States.
3. Inclusive labor market, closing gender and ethnic origin gaps.
4. Growth of a stronger and broader middle class, promoter of social change and inclusive progress.
5. Flourishing of micro, small and medium-sized enterprises, as the engine of development and employment, with the incorporation of technology in their processes.
