Members of the Network participated in the International Meeting of Mediators and Promoters of Reading in Migrant Contexts (November 6 and 7 in the city of Chihuahua) hosted by the State and Federal authorities of the National Program Reading from the Mexican Ministry of Culture. A total of 52 mediators and reading promoters from different parts of Mexico, from Baja California to Chiapas, participated in this meeting together with guests from Egypt and Central America, sharing experiences and readings through presentations and workshops. In this space, the Mexican mediators shared the results of the cultural intervention projects carried out with migrant populations, which were derived from the training carried out with the “Leer con migrantes” project sponsored by the Ministry of Culture. We visited two cultural centers and also had the opportunity to learn about the history and culture of the state of Chihuahua which has a border with the USA.
