A Day in the Life of Mission Mexico

This project promotes informed U.S./Mexico relations by documenting, through the eyes of some of its almost 2000 locally-engaged and Foreign Service staff, the range of work done to advance relations and ensure America's security. With the many agencies represented at the Embassy, nine consulates, 13 consular agencies and five independent offices, Mission Mexico is America's largest diplomatic and consular overseas presence. The project's compilation of photos of daily life and work of the U.S. Mission in 2008 by American and Mexican employees is a visual core for an on-line presentation with narration used within Mexico (e.g. consular waiting rooms), within and externally by the Department of State and in a book with a more complete anthology of the Mission's activities. The project also educates the American public and supports Foreign Service recruitment.
