On Monday, the Mexican government introduced 'Boxing for Peace', an initiative designed to foster sports discipline and social prevention by integrating boxers as community instructors. The program aims to provide financial support and free classes for children and young people across the country, addressing the need for social cohesion through sports. The technical secretary of the Presidential Cabinet, Carlos Gastón Torres Rosas, emphasized that boxing serves as more than just a sport; it is a community space where discipline, respect, and brotherhood can be cultivated.

Carlos Gastón Torres Rosas highlighted that many boxers experience unstable incomes, lack social security, and face constant injury risks, which the program aims to alleviate. By providing monthly support of 9,000 pesos to participants, 'Boxing for Peace' seeks to empower boxers and ensure a sustainable career path while using the sport to transform lives and build peaceful communities. The initiative aligns with broader efforts to enhance public safety and promote social well-being in areas affected by violence and economic hardship.

The program will not only support boxers but also encourage youth to engage in healthy activities instead of falling into negative environments. With access to professional training and mentorship, the initiative is positioned to have a lasting impact on many young lives across Mexico, promoting personal growth and community resilience. The government’s commitment to this program underlines the importance of sports in shaping a peaceful society.
