Overview

• FAISPIAM launched its 12.374-billion-peso 2025 allocation with 139.9 million pesos delivered to 176 indigenous communities in Querétaro, including 43.1 million for 39 Amealco de Bonfil villages.
• Article 2 reforms recognize indigenous and Afro-Mexican communities as a fourth level of the federal budget with autonomous public-law status and dedicated resources.
• Community assemblies democratically select projects—from water and sanitation to electrification and housing—and install execution and oversight commissions alongside women treasurers.
• Resources bypass state and municipal intermediaries to reach over 20,000 communities nationwide, with disbursements based on population, poverty levels and local needs.
• Federal authorities describe FAISPIAM as a permanent pillar of President Sheinbaum’s Fourth Transformation, with annual budget increases expected to expand community-driven projects.
