In the presence of representatives of the Center for Advanced Study of Child Abuse, National Institute of Pediatrics (INP-CEAMI-UNAM-SSA), Dr. Arturo Lordo Abdala, and the Inter-American Observatory on Citizen Security (OAS-OSC 2012- 2015) Ms. Maria Araceli Garcia Carrazco, the council members were sworn in by Mr. Hiram Valdez Chavez, COMNAPAZ Chairman, National Commission for Culture of Peace and Non-Violence in Mexico. He explained that this organization provides a legislative agenda which includes several goals, such as the measuring the culture of peace and non violence in BC, creating the country's first Peace Culture University provided by UNESCO, engaging in "peace education" according to the third Constitutional Article and striving to ensure that military service should serve the culture of peace.

The COMNAPAZ President stated that the legislative agenda should streamline government through improved access to health services, welfare and education, as well as give people good paying job opportunities, improve field conditions and raise levels of education and competitiveness. He emphasized that its implementation in favor of the culture of peace in BC, can only be achieved through a political and social transformation of the state. He concluded by recognizing the great responsibility of working for the children of Baja California, especially those living in situations of violence and vulnerability. As a society we must fight for respect for dignity and human rights, and the culture of peace.
