Learn what inspired us to tell the story of Palermo and who are the organizations behind the documentary.
Change is possible
Social changes are painful and complicated, they require will and persistence; it could seems like it's aiming for an utopia, an unreachable situation for any community.
However, Palermo tells a different story, where despite tragedy and barriers such as fear, apathy and uncertainty, change is possible. Stories as painful as this must be told, and No Mafia aims to make this story of hope visible, in order to learn from its mistakes and successes.
Palermo could be any other city, at any time in history, on any continent. Palermo is everyone of us who have lived through violence, corruption, insecurity, and who are ready to act and change what we have been told is impossible: our own history.
Hagámoslo Bien is a civil association which promotes the Culture of Lawfulness. Since 2013 has worked in collaboration with more than 400 organizations from multiple sectors of the state of Nuevo León, Mexico.
At Hagámoslo Bien we are convinced that working and strengthening integrity and honesty in our communities is a way in which all people, no matter who they are or what they do for a living, can contribute directly to having a just, peaceful and prosperous Mexico that all citizens want.
SUMA Laboratory of Culture of Lawfulness was born from the civil association Hagámoslo Bien. Its goal is to bring knowledge about the Culture of Lawfulness to those who need it. Knowledge that can be derived from reflection, theory or experience, both individual and collective.
With this goal, SUMA create innovative products and tools that cultivate the Culture of Lawfulness in societies and connect research with action. In this way, citizens, anywhere in the world, who wants to generate change will be connected and will learn from other experiences to carry them out in their own communities.
