Instituto Mexicano para la Competitividad

The Instituto Mexicano para la Competitividad (IMCO) is a nonpartisan think tank specializing in policy analysis and evidence-based advocacy to improve Mexico’s institutional framework for economic growth and accountable governance. IMCO is working to narrow its policy research toward three main goals: effective public institutions, inclusive society, and a competitive economy. The organization provides policymakers with evidence to make more informed decisions and citizens with information to monitor the implementation of public policies and spending. (Strategy: Inclusive Governance)

The Instituto Mexicano para la Competitividad (IMCO) is a nonpartisan think tank specializing in policy analysis and evidence-based advocacy to improve Mexico’s institutional framework for economic growth, as well increase government transparency and accountability. IMCO generates applied research to inform public debate and advocacy on how economic and social phenomena affect Mexico’s competitiveness. This supplement for general operating support would allow the think tank to keep producing competitiveness indices at the international, national, and subnational levels. It would also help IMCO better use new technologies to increase its impact and outreach, continue to produce research on public finance and government transparency, and deepen its engagement with education and public security policy in Mexico.

The Mexican Institute for Competitiveness is an independent research center that studies the economic and social phenomena that affect Mexico’s economic competitiveness. This renewal grant would fund the Institute’s work on indicators of the impacts of air pollution on private sector productivity as a lever for reducing air pollution in Mexico´s biggest cities.
