      • The Mexico Peace Index (MPI) is one in a series of National Peace Indices produced by the Institute for Economics and Peace (IEP). The MPI provides a comprehensive measure of peacefulness in Mexico, the fifth edition of the MPI was released in 2017. The report is released in both Spanish and English, and analyzes the economic benefits that would occur from increases in peace, and provides an estimate relating to the economic impact violence has had on Mexico.
      The Index uses the same definition of peace as the Global Peace Index, United States Peace Index and United Kingdom Peace Index, which it defines as the absence of violence or the absence of the fear of violence.
      Each year a large press conference is held and attended by many civil society reps, including INEGI, COMCE, Coparmex, FEMSA, Mexico Evalua, Mexico Contra la Delincuencia. Additionally the press conferences are attended by journalists from multiple media outlets including the Wall Street Journal, AFP, EFE, Xinhua, NY Times, Telemundo, Reforma, El Universal, El Economista, TV Azteca, Milenio TV, Expansion, Radio Formula, MVS Radio, W Radio, Notimex. Each year the launch of the report generates wide spread domestic media coverage, with 500 media pieces covering the 2017 launch.
