MejoraTuEscuela.org (Improve your school)
MejoraTuEscuela.org (lit. Improve your school) is a digital platform from the Mexican Institute for Competitiveness, created with the support of the Omidyar Network Foundation to promote the participation of parents and citizens in order to influence the improvement of education in Mexico. The platform provides information about the quality of public and private schools (primary to high school) nationwide with which it is possible to consult information and use it to demand a change in educational matters. Users can also compare quality across schools, grade schools by identifying strengths and weaknesses, and obtain tools that will enable parents to become involved and participate in improving their children's education.
