Impulsa
Our commitment
In 2012 we began an effort to make our Institution a more diverse and inclusive place, and we defined and made public our principle of equality and non-discrimination:
"At Tecnológico de Monterrey we promote and value diversity. We do not discriminate based on age, ethnic origin, nationality, gender, sexual orientation, marital status, social status, health status, religious beliefs, political ideology or disability."
Today we are proud of the meaningful progress that we have made. However, we are aware that we have important challenges ahead. We want to be an example of diversity and inclusion, to be consolidated as a place where women and men have the same growth and development opportunities and have the same representation in our decision-making process.
What is Impulsa?
In 2018 we set up the IMPULSA Committee, consisting of women and men from our Institution, to work on proposals aimed at achieving gender equality, increasing the number of women in leadership positions through equity strategies, and strengthening the processes of acquisition, development, and retention of talent.
IMPULSA, as well as the other diversity and inclusion advisory committees, is coordinated by the Center for the Recognition of Human Dignity.
Gender Equality Plan
31 actions to advance toward gender equality in the Institution, during the 2021-2025 period.

HeForShe
HeForShe is a solidarity movement for gender equality created by UN Women. Its objective is to engage men and boys as agents of change to achieve gender equality and respect for the rights of girls and women, motivating them to take action against the inequalities they face. In Mexico, many government agencies, universities, and companies have joined this campaign.
