México y Alemania: socios estratégicos en la cooperación internacional para el desarrollo

In this article, Miriam Medel examines the current state of international development cooperation relations between Mexico and Germany. She explains how this cooperation has evolved in the wake of a number of transformations in both countries, such as the passing of the Mexican International Development Cooperation Law and a change in how Mexico is viewed in Germany. After examining cooperation in tackling climate change and in the promotion of sustainable development, specifically dealing with nationally appropriate mitigation actions (namas) on climate change and housing, the author recommends the entrenchment of a bilateral cooperation plan that commits to the strengthening of bilateral relations as strategic partners and enables Mexico to achieve its national development goals and encourage the promotion of third-country cooperation, thus fulfilling the objective of making Mexico a globally responsible player.
