Summary: MEXICO EDITION. Residents of 40 municipalities along the coast of the state of Guerrero will meet on March 18th to redesign the community police that have been operating for 18 years in the region. The founders clarify they will not put down their arms and will continue inspections in their communities, since in seven of these communities they have achieved 85 percent more security and avoided infiltration of organize crime. The communities also plan to propose new development policies and ways to protect energy and mining resources. This edition also includes reports of missing people, among them children, adolescents, and adults. In the majority of these disappearances, family members are carrying out the investigations without any help from law enforcement. The family members protested outside the Attorney General of Mexico's office without a response. Martha Elena Ramírez hosts the program Voz Pública from Mexico City.
