The Support for Safer Schools Reconstruction project assisted the Secretariat of Public Education with the reconstruction of school buildings in the areas of Mexico most affected by two powerful earthquakes in 2017.
Mexico
Since 1960, Mexico’s economy has expanded, and the country has graduated to upper-middle from lower-middle-income status. Its 126 million citizens have experienced a continuous gain in life expectancy, and over 40 percent of the population are of school age (that is, under age 25). Mexico is highly exposed to many natural hazards.
