Key points

• Key points:
• The 2025–2030 National Development Plan (PND) consists of four general pillars and three cross-cutting axes. The general pillars address issues of justice, welfare policy, labor, and sustainable development, while the cross-cutting axes cover gender issues, technological development, and the inclusion of Indigenous and Afro-Mexican communities.
• With an agenda that incorporates topics such as energy transition and climate change, the current PND represents a positive shift compared to the previous six-year term, during which sustainability issues were not a priority.
• The narrative of the PND reflects a proactive tone in addressing the environmental challenges Mexico faces, although there are also observed challenges related to budget, institutional capacities, and the need to include a greater number of indicators for the strategies to be developed.
