Miriam Villafaña
Corporate Social Responsability Director
Our presence in Mexico spans several decades, during which
we have carried out social responsibility programs and initiatives.
However, the area focused on Corporate Social Responsibility
(CSR) is recent within our organization (mid-2017) and established
with an initial three-year plan. This plan included the development
of projects within and outside the organization, which allowed
us to involve our main stakeholders. The area aims to make CSR
a transversal issue within the Firm, immersed in the processes
of the different areas, as well as in its business strategy.
Internally, we understand Social Responsibility as a vision that
must permeate all areas of the organization where each one
of them identifies its particular contributions and aligns its
processes with the general objective to build an integral and
responsible culture. The above arrangement seeks to bring CSR to
the forefront of the business and to involve our people through
a solid internal communication program that will enable us to
achieve this objective. On the other hand, externally, we
develop various collaborations with our main stakeholders
(clients, organizations, suppliers, and the media), in order to
strengthen the impact of the programs and initiatives
that we create together.
In addition to encouraging participation within the Firm, we
have built committees that specifically address some of the
key issues to achieve our purposes. This structure aims to add
different visions and capacities that strengthen us. The main
committees implemented are listed below:
•
•
•
Diversity and Inclusion: Gender, LGBT+, and Disability
Pro Bono: Free Legal Advice
Community Service: Volunteering and Donations
Sustainability: Care for the Environment
Thus, in July 2020, the plan we set out to consolidate over
three years ended; it is therefore time to set out a renewed
vision for the next period, during which we will seek, above all,
to increase our collaborative work with the stakeholders
we consider a priority.
Membership in the Global Compact
Local Network and Our Impact on the
Firm's Priority SDGS
In alignment with the Firm's global strategy, we joined the UN's
Global Compact Local Network in January 2020; this has allowed
us to focus our CSR actions and programs opportunely.

The SDGs will be mentioned throughout this report, as well
as the Global Compact's Ten Principles and the material impacted
through the programs and initiatives we undertook during
this period.View entire presentation
