International Team

SIPAZ develops its work through an international team based in San Cristóbal de Las Casas, Chiapas, from which we travel to the main areas of conflict in the state. Since 2005, our team has expanded its work to the states of Oaxaca and Guerrero, with frequent visits to those states, though without permanent offices there. Marina Pagés (France) has been the team’s Coordinator since 2001.
