The initiative is firmly
anchored in its national
policy and stems from the
National Development
Plan 2001-2006 which
sets an overall vision for
Mexico up to 2025 with
two policy programs; the
National Program for the
Environment & Natural
R e s o u r c e s a n d t h e
National Tourism Program.
The latter identifies the
‘maintenance of sustainable tourism destinations’ as one of four Principle Axes,
which calls for better, integrated planning at a local level supported by the three
levels of government.
