The Morena member, who will be sworn in as head of the capital’s government on October 5, announced that a participation mechanism will be launched so that the city’s inhabitants can give their opinion on the services they want the next Utopias to have.
“The next 100 Utopias that we are going to create in the city, what should their content be? Obviously, with a process of participatory diagnosis and planning, we must recover the dreams and desires of the community where it is going to be installed, but we also have to recover the best, the most advanced in the exercise of rights,” he said.
She highlighted the role of Utopias – spaces created during her administration as mayor of Iztapalapa from 2018 to 2023 – in the recovery of public spaces and the materialization of the care system mandated by the city’s Constitution.
“This model of recovery of public space, of social urbanism, of a feminist project that puts women at the centre, that turns public space into a care system, that what was previously done in private – caring, cooking, washing clothes – today becomes the responsibility of the State and, not just for the sake of it, today it is a constitutional right.
“The only Constitution in this country that has elevated the public care system to constitutional law is the Constitution of Mexico City,” he said.
