By signing on to the international Treaty of Marrakech, Mexico promises to adopt national legislation that allows for the reproduction, distribution and provision of publications that are accessible to blind or visually handicapped people, primarily through Braille or audio versions.

The signing reaffirms Mexico’s public position of equality and nondiscrimination as written in the National Development Plan and the Education Sector program, according to a bulletin issued jointly by the Foreign Relations and Public Education Secretariats.
