National Council of Territorial Planning

The National Council of Territorial Planning is a deliberative, consultative, and advisory body created to propose, coordinate and follow up policies, strategies, plans, and opinions, making proposals and promoting initiatives for the implementation of territorial planning programs, projects and actions. The Council is made up of representatives of state secretariats; ethnic, peasant, women and youth organizations; and labor unions, as well as representatives of the federation of employers, professional associations, and universities. With regards to its implementation, the Council was formally installed by the President of the Republic in November 2004, with the representation of many of the public entities and civil society organizations in charge of territorial planning. The council was re-installed in the following Governmental period, in July 2008.
