Comprehensive Strategy for Civil Protection
The agreement, formalized on March 24, 2026, initiates a new era in safety and prevention for SUPERISSSTE.

Ludlow stated, “The core of this collaboration is to guarantee the safety of our customers and employees.”
Training and Innovation at the Forefront
Beyond the initial fire prevention assessment, the agreement facilitates the development of joint projects, comprehensive training programs, and the promotion of self-protection strategies. This institutional collaboration aims to consolidate coordination mechanisms, ensuring that these vital initiatives reach a broader spectrum of ISSSTE’s facilities.
Juan Manuel Pérez Cova, General Director of the Mexico City Fire Department, underscored the significance of the agreement, stating, “It is very important to understand the risks that stores or establishments have.” He added that the Fire Department’s extensive experience with other commercial corporations would be leveraged to enhance the effectiveness of this new alliance. Pérez Cova emphasized the shared responsibility of institutions and society in fostering a culture of prevention.
Focus on Education, Science, and Technology
The initiative also encompasses educational, scientific, and technological training, alongside the promotion of innovations geared towards civil protection. Authorities present at the signing highlighted that a gender-sensitive approach and dedicated attention to priority sectors are central tenets of the agreement.
The agreement was signed by Dunia Ludlow Deloya, Silvia Alejandra Limón Carmona, Juan Manuel Pérez Cova, Pablo Ramírez Ávalos, and David Pérez Guzmán. All signatories concurred on the importance of creating secure environments for both users and staff, reinforcing SUPERISSSTE’s commitment to the well-being of Mexican families.
