• IPN Director General Arturo Reyes Sandoval received the award and reaffirmed the Institute’s commitment to using every available tool to share its work with society.
The Instituto Politécnico Nacional (IPN) received the Crónica Award for Public Communication and Knowledge 2025 in recognition of its outstanding work in scientific and technological dissemination—carried out with rigor, awareness, and social commitment through Canal Once and Radio IPN.
The award ceremony took place at the Jaime Torres Bodet Auditorium of the National Museum of Anthropology, where IPN Director General Arturo Reyes Sandoval accepted the honor from former UNAM Rector José Narro Robles.
In his remarks, Dr. Reyes Sandoval expressed his gratitude for the recognition and highlighted the vital role that Canal Once and Radio IPN have played over the years in communicating the Politécnico’s work and bringing science and knowledge closer to Mexican society.
He reaffirmed his conviction that spreading knowledge and culture is a vital need: “We believe that humanity has been built on the foundation of shared knowledge—using our intelligence to turn ideas into advances and insights that benefit society. That’s what made us the human beings we are today.”
Dr. Reyes Sandoval also thanked the Institutional Image Coordination Office, whose dedicated efforts help ensure that the Politécnico maintains a positive public image while promoting the dissemination of knowledge and culture.
He emphasized that the Institute carries a profound social responsibility—particularly in inspiring children and young people who are preparing to enter one of the IPN’s Vocational Schools (CECyT).
“We will continue to use every tool available to communicate all that is being done within our institution and for society. From experience, we know that scientific knowledge sparks excitement and awakens scientific vocations when it is effectively shared,” he said before the audience gathered at the National Museum of Anthropology.
