Activists climb a Mexico City monument to proclaim that human rights are ‘also in play’

Activists from organizations like Greenpeace and Amnesty International climbed Mexico City’s Estela de Luz monument to protest human rights issues, displaying banners with messages on migration, environmental justice, and gun control. The protest criticized the government’s focus on the World Cup over social and environmental problems, citing over 133,000 missing persons and 190,000 deportations between 2025 and March 2026.
