  • This movement was born in Sweden with the fact of creating a culture in Mazatlan, with the intention of collaborating with this port, in addition to attacking overweight, obesity and preventing possible diabetes in the future.
  • In other countries this activity is being developed as in India, Hungary, France, Costa Rica, the United States and Sweden

The appointment will be on Thursday at the beach located in the monument to sea lions, involving about 400 children from various schools.

At the end a modeling contest will be held in which the students will make sculptures of 13 endangered species.
