Transnational Civil Organizations.
This program started in 2007 and has assisted with the construction of 3 social organizations. These organizations function with the participation of Mexican immigrants in the United States and members of their communities of origin in Mexico.
The objectives of these organizations are to strengthen cooperation, understanding, and citizenship in order to prioritize community planning and participation of those who live in Mexico and the United States.

Information and Communications Technology for Development.
Some immigrant communities of origin remain isolated because of a lack of telecommunications infrastructure. With the program “IT for Development” MIDE-ac has been able to offer Internet services to these communities.
