National Advisory Council for Sustainable Development
The National Advisory Council for Sustainable Development is the consultative body of the Secretary of the Environment and Natural Resources (SEMARNAT) created with the objective of achieving the responsible co-participation of all sectors of society to promote the protection, conservation and restoration of ecosystems, natural resources and environmental goods and services, in order to promote their use and sustainable development. In 2011, the Council was divided into a National Advisory Council, six Regional Councils and thirty-two Nucleus Councils (at the state level), with the aim of achieving greater representativeness of all the sectors that comprise it.
