The purpose of this project is to raise awareness and inform about drug trafficking and its effects on society.

1. Narco Cultura.
Drugs, Human Trafficking, Corruption and War
and Effects on our people .

2. What is Narcocultura?
Cultura es un conjunto de
ideas, tradiciones y
costumbres que
caracterizan a un
Pueblo.
Por lo tanto NarcoCultura es
el conjunto de ideas creadas
por el pueblo para asimilar
el Narcotráfico.
Culture is a set of ideas,
traditions and customs that
they characterize a group of
people.
Therefore Narco Culture is
the set of ideas created by
the people to assimilate the
Drug trafficking.

3. Influence of drugs on our culture
Mexican cartels have been expanding their operations into countries like,
Guatemala, Honduras, and El Salvador.
Mexico has historically acted as the top drug-consuming market and top drug-
producing countries in the world (they have been caught in countries as far as
Malaysia)
Violence, crime, corruption has increased in latin america due to the mexican
cartel influence
Ranchers, farmers, and timber-traffickers in the local area are bribed to become
part of the narco-trafficking

4. Human Trafficking
Police enforcement in the Mexico drug war is pushing criminal gangs into the side
businesses such as extortion, kidnapping, and human trafficking.
They get into this because the migrants either pay up work for the narco, or they
die.
Human Trafficking is the second most profitable way for the cartels to make
money.

5. Corruption & War
● the "war" against drugs began 10 years ago
● According to the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD)
Mexico is the last place among the 34 member countries of t on corruption.
● Corruption is defined as the violation of the law, in general, any decision taken by a
group of people with power and without transparency is corruption.
● 17,000 civilian deaths were recorded until October 2017

6. Effects on our people
The cartel charges around one to two grand per
person and if they cannot pay them when they
get there they kill them.
the cartel can offer a lot of money to people and
it can be hard to say no to that.
Many other citizens feel safe/threatened by
cartels living near by.

7. In late June, ICE agents turned
a man caught with more than
20 kilograms of cocaine at a
Southern California border
crossing over to state
authorities instead of bringing
him to federal court. A judge
sentenced him to eight years in
prison, though under the state's
sentencing laws, he could get
out in half that time
Over 99 percent of all marijuana and
methamphetamine seized at U.S. borders
has come from Mexico, a colossal cache of
8.2 million pounds since 2012 and a
demonstration of the efforts by drug
cartels to feed America's habit, one that is
leading to increasing deaths, according to
a new report.
