A national, plural, nonpartisan movement

Finding
each other.

Mexico does not need to erase its differences.
It needs to learn how to meet through them.

1926 — 2026A century since a divide. A chance to come together.

We can think differently.
And build together.

It means recognizing pain, listening before responding, repairing when needed, and rebuilding trust between people, communities, and institutions. Reconciliation does not mean thinking alike; it means recognizing one another as part of the same national community.

We are a civil society initiative. We want to turn Mexico’s historical and current divisions into listening, commitments and concrete action.

  • Reconciliation does not erase
  • Dignity comes first
  • Action over speeches
  • Plurality without partisan ownership

1926—2026

100 years later,
what can we heal?

In 2026, Mexico marks one hundred years since the beginning of the Cristero War. The centenary opens a national conversation about what happens when people and government, faith and state, memory and power stop recognizing one another as part of the same story.

Remembering means listening to affected communities and acknowledging suffering and responsibility. This centenary is a starting point for discussing the divisions that still run through our lives.

A conversation still open

This is not about deciding who was right. It is about asking what happens when we stop seeing one another as compatriots and begin treating one another as enemies.

  • Religious freedom
  • Church-State relations
  • Persecution and violence
  • Affected communities
  • Memory and recognition
  • Future coexistence

The memory is ours. So is the future.

The differences
we live with.

Five starting points for listening, recognizing each other and finding something we can do together.
