Mexico's government has launched a Web site with information aimed at facilitating a series of public debates on marijuana use, the first of which will be held on Jan. 26 in the Caribbean resort city of Cancun and focus on public health and prevention.

The site, which seeks to promote a "broad and inclusive" discussion, was presented Tuesday at a press conference by Mexico's deputy human rights secretary, Roberto Campa.

In keeping with the goal of designing new public policy through the debates, the Web site will provide the public with information about relevant domestic and international legislation.

The Web site will include links to information about marijuana legislation in 14 countries and three U.S. states, as well as academic research and articles on regulation, public health, public safety, marijuana consumption, medicinal use of the drug, human rights, the prison system and economic development.
