Guanajuato, Gto., August 31, 2016. According the commitment of the University of Guanajuato (UG) to attend the priority problems of the environment, there was a specific agreement signed with the State Institute of Attention to the Migrant from Guanajuato and their families (IMIG), which will allow to develop joint projects of social impact and integration of the Mexicans who live abroad.

On the matter, UG's General Rector, Dr. Luis Felipe Guerrero Agripino said that the Academy requires interinstitutional channels so the research products have a desirable impact in the community, so he celebrated the link with the state government to address the migrant subject.

The General Rector highlighted besides leadership from Dr. Ana Beatriz Vila Freyer, Professor of the Department of Cultural, Demographic and Politic Studies of Campus Celaya-Salvatierra, who insisted in the importance of working together with the institutions such as IMIG.

One of the first actions derived from this agreement will be the realization of the International Colloquium of "Human mobility, territory and Migratory policies," as informed by the General Director of the State's Institute of Attention to the Migrant of Guanajuato and their Families, Lic.
