A Sense of Community: Mexico City’s Iztapalapa neighbourhood is undergoing a unique transformation

Iztapalapa in Mexico City is notorious for soaring crime levels and poverty. But in 2018, the local government began working to turn the borough’s fortunes around by investing in community initiatives to foster social cohesion. Iztapalapa’s two million residents now have access to more public arts programmes, government services and sporting facilities. But challenges remain in a community where there are high rates of violence on the streets and within family homes. A Sense of Community visits this Mexican community during its busiest week, when residents stage one of the world’s largest festivals to mark Easter and cement cultural traditions. #Mexico #Christianity #Society #Jesus #JesusChrist #Mural #Art #Theatre #Community #Cycling #Travel Credits: Episode Producers: Andalusia Knoll Soloff, Nick Olle Creator and Series Producer: Drew Ambrose Associate Producer: Aun Qi Koh Cinematographer: Craig Hansen Drone Operator: Andalusia Knoll Soloff Photographer: Toya Sarno Jordan Graphics: Marc Keke Robertson Theme Music: Vicki Hansen Picture Editor: Adrian Billing Digital Producer: Hasham Cheema Cover Art: Row Yow Production Manager: Susanna Low Senior Producer: Liz Gooch Supervising Producer: Nick Olle Executive Producer: Sharon Roobol Special thanks to: Faro de Oriente Subscribe to our channel: bit.ly/AJSubscribe Follow us on Twitter: www.twitter.com/aj101east Find us on Facebook: www.facebook.com/101east Follow us on Instagram: www.instagram.com/aj101east Check our website: www.aljazeera.com
