The program of “Physical culture and sport” will almost double its budget, it had in 2019 158 million pesos and by 2020 it will have 2 billion pesos.
This program is focused on “improving the quality of life of Mexicans”, where the basis for the practice of sport will be physical activation in educational spaces “that will serve as catalysts as part of a comprehensive and excellent education”.
