Urban and Industrial Environmental Management Program – PGAUI II
Description of project
The PGAUI program sought to identify possible areas of inter-municipal collaboration and promote the corresponding initiatives. Among other topics, the program aimed to diagnose the strategies and tools of economic promotion in the metropolitan area of Puebla-Tlascala with the aim of integrating aspects of sustainability and strengthening inter-municipal cooperation in this area. Since Germany and Spain had a longer history of the concept of metropolitan areas and inter-municipal cooperation, it was assumed that there were interesting initiatives that could benefit Mexico. The comparison between Spain and Germany could also show the different approaches that were possible in this topic. The specific objective of this consultancy was to develop a guide of good practices of inter-municipal economic promotion in Metropolitan Areas in Spain.
