The San Lázaro Cultural Space Embraces a New Chapter
Elías Robles Andrade, a seasoned legal and political expert, is now leading the San Lázaro Cultural Space. This cultural hub aims to promote civic engagement, democratic values, and cultural diversity.
In Mexico City's legislative center, a new force for cultural engagement has emerged under the stewardship of Elías Robles Andrade. Recently appointed as Director of the San Lázaro Cultural Space (ECSL), Robles brings an academic pedigree and an extensive legislative background that position him uniquely to spearhead this ambitious initiative.
Robles, a lawyer and political scientist trained at the University of Guadalajara, holds a Master's in Human Rights and Democracy. Reflecting on his journey, he recounts, “My first contact with Congress was in the Senate as Technical Secretary in the Jurisdictional Commission. I later specialized in legislative processes and parliamentary law.” His career has woven through Mexico’s legislative fabric, from advising in the Administration Committee of the Chamber of Deputies to leading the Legislative Museum, Sentimientos de la Nación, for nearly a decade.
