Foundation and History
The Veracruz State College of Political and Regional Studies (COLVER) was created in July 2002 by decree of the Veracruz State Government, headed by Miguel Alemán Velasco, following an initiative by Francisco Berlín Valenzuela and a group of Veracruz academics and politicians. Given the state of Veracruz's great economic, political, and cultural potential, it was deemed necessary to have a center for political and regional studies that would also serve as a promoter of areas previously neglected from an academic perspective, such as Political Science (absent at the Veracruzana University) and Regional Development, thereby fostering educational and social change in southeastern Mexico.
