Expected annual loss (Values in the thousands) The 1985 earthquake, which caused heavy human and economic losses, was the most serious disaster in CDMX’s recent history. The reconstruction costs were a 0 - 0.2 great challenge for the city and the country[27]. Estimates of damages from this 0.2 - 0.4 earthquake vary significantly by source because most were created without a uniform methodology and were based on scattered, incomplete information: 0.4 - 0.6

0.8 - 1.0 HUMAN LOSSES 1.0 - 11.4 Official data on fatalities vary between 6,000 (CENAPRED, 2001) and 8,000 (CEPAL, 1985)[28].

COSTS DUE TO DAMAGES AND LOSSES

Estimated costs range from $USD 4.1 million (CENAPRED, 2001) to $USD 8.3 billion (World Bank, 2012).

Affected over 2.7% of the national GDP in 1985. (CENAPRED, 2001).

INFRASTRUCTURE DAMAGES (CENAPRED, 2001)

36,000 homes destroyed 65,000 homes with serious damage. 3,300 large buildings damaged. 1 out of 5 teaching facilities collapsed or damaged beyond repair.

50 hospitals and health care centers damaged. CHAPTER II. RESILIENCE CHALLENGES 100 RESILIENT CITIES: MEXICO CITY Considerable damages to the water supply, power and telecommunications networks.

SOCIAL IMPACT

30,000 people injured (World Bank, 2012b). 250,000 people with lost their homes (World Bank, 2012b). 900,000 people with damage to their homes (World Bank, 2012b). 150,000 unemployed people (CENAPRED, 2001).

There could be another disaster if another large-magnitude earthquake occurs. Continuous resilience building is key to protecting human lives, housing, strategic infrastructure, basic services such as potable water and sewage networks, the food supply, and the city’s transportation network.

27. CENAPRED, 2001; World Bank, 2012b; OCDE, 2013. 28. Some non-official estimates provided were much higher for human losses: Semanario Proceso (Proceso Weekly Magazine, 2015) published non-official figures of 25,000 to 30,000 fatalities; the Excelsior newspaper published figures based on data 32 33 from the Mexico City Civil Registry Office stating that there were 12,843 victims (Paramo, September 15, 2015).

Storage (mm3) 800 In April 2015, California’s governor, Jerry Brown, issued an executive order to reduce use of potable water in urban areas by 25 percent, with specific reductions of 4 to 36 800 percent required for cities (relative to 2013 usage).[44] The specific reduction required 750 for the City of Los Angeles was 16 percent. However, water pressures in the city in 700 previous years had forced local government to act. In October 2014, Eric Garcetti,

650 mayor of Los Angeles, made a commitment to reduce water consumption per capita by 20 percent by 2017 and to realize a partial reduction of 10 percent by mid-2015. 600 He also endeavored to reduce water imports by 50 percent by 2025 and replace 550 this reduction by rainfall capture by 2035. [45] About 65 percent of the water in Los 500 Angeles is used in homes. The Los Angeles Department of Water and Power (LADWP)

Los Angeles seeks to develop local water sources that are drought-resilient. Between 2011 and 2015, 80 percent of the water used in Los Angeles was imported from the Sierra Nevada and the Colorado River. Due to impacts of climate change on these sources, Los Angeles is seeking new projects to recycle water and capture rainfall. Alternatives are also being investigated to recharge the San Fernando Valley aquifer with treated recycled water.[47]

ECONOMIC IMPACT

Droughts have a significant impact on the agricultural sector, and these impacts create economic losses.[48] However, in the city the economic importance of the agricultural sector is relatively small,[49] and the industrial and commercial sectors, which tend to predominate in cities, are not directly affected by drought.[50] In Los Angeles, homeowners have experienced the greatest economic impacts of the drought because of rate increases.[51] However, LADWP has also been affected: Restrictions on water consumption reduce revenues for LADWP even though the transaction costs of the water system have been fixed.

Rotterdam; Surat (India); and Vejle (Denmark) attended the exchange. These cities face common challenges regarding water management. During the exchange, innovations implemented in Rotterdam for multidisciplinary infrastructure were explored. Among the innovations were water squares and underground parking lots that can retain and store water during intense rainfall events to mitigate the risk of floods while providing public space.[56] 100 RESILIENT CITIES: MEXICO CITY CHAPTER III.

3.3 INSTITUTIONALIZATION OF RESILIENCE

The development and implementation of the Resilience Strategy has been driven by the Resilience Steering Committee, which was created under the mandate of the Federal District Inter-Institutional Climate Change Commission (CICCDF)[57], pursuant to Article 11, Fraction XIII of the Federal District Act for Climate Change Mitigation and Adaptation and Sustainable Development. The Resilience Steering Committee is made up of a group of stakeholders who represent various sectors (Figure 20) and have contributed to the development of the Resilience Strategy with review and validation of documents, activities, and strategy design in preparation for submittal to CICCDF.

In June 2015, 40 states and cities in the United States that had suffered from a natural disaster between 2011 and 2013 were invited to compete for $USD 1 billion to finance disaster recovery and foster long-term community resilience. 100 RESILIENT CITIES: MEXICO CITY Among the winners were the states of California, Connecticut, New Jersey, and Virginia and the cities of New Orleans, Springfield, MA, and New York. PILLAR 01 . FOSTER REGIONAL COORDINATION

The process conducted for this competition was unique in that:

• A competition method was used to allocate federal funds. • Multidisciplinary groups of subject-matter experts were organized to work directly with teams to develop their proposals. • Proposed projects had to involve various organizations and prove that diverse financing sources were used to prepare the project. • Philanthropic partners were included to provide resources to build capacity. These partners worked individually with the teams. • Leadership was available at the federal level, as demonstrated by a commitment to change the manner that budgets for disasters are prepared.

Because four Mexican cities are currently part of the 100RC Network, this initiative offers an example of how collaboration can be fostered on a national scale to build resilience. 68 69 INSPIRATION FROM MELBOURNE, : METROPOLITAN FOREST.

Management of City Water Resources (GIRHU)[66] process. ESTRATEGIA DE RESILIENCIA

65. Water security refers to the ability of a society to safeguard access to water, in the quantity needed and the quality required, to enable social welfare, lifestyle and socioeconomic development; to ensure protection against water pollution and water disasters; and to preserve ecosystems in an atmosphere of social peace and political stability (UN-Water, 2013). 66. GIRHU is a flexible, participatory and iterative process that integrates all elements of the urban water cycle (water supply, sanitation, stormwater management, and waste management) with the city’s urban development and watershed management— and its natural resources and ecosystem services—to maximize the economic, social, and environmental benefits in an equitable

and inclusive manner. It involves the participation of different stakeholders in developing the short- and long-term actions, 77 76 77 synergies, and investments required in traditional infrastructure, green infrastructure, institutional development, financing, and capacity building, among others (World Bank, 2012).

The disaster risk reduction was promoted internationally from the “International Decade for Natural Disaster Reduction” in the 1990s, culminating in the Hyogo Framework for Action: Increased resilience of nations and communities in the event of disasters, approved at the “World Conference on Disaster Reduction” in 2005. One of the objectives of this document was to increase the availability of adequate and reliable information on disasters, not only for decision makers, but for the general population (UN, 2005). 106.

Based on the success of this methodology in the city of New York, RBD’s goal has been to establish it as a model for designing resilience solutions to problems in other cities.

This methodology has been considered a paradigm shift in the way governments and those responsible for urban planning consider emergency preparedness and disaster response. RBD relies on collaboration among designers, researchers, community members, and government officials in a process that proposes solutions to problems, solutions that take into account physical, social, and ecological factors.

In addition to increasing risk awareness in society, RBD has an important

Content is included on the following three topics:

• Impact of climate change on cities and how it affects the lives of young people. • Basic civil protection concepts and disaster preparedness. • Sustainable consumption and resource efficiency, particularly regarding energy and water; introduction of recycling fundamentals and the processing of materials and products.

The project believes that children should become aware of the risks they are exposed to in their neighborhood and city, and should develop resilient behaviors in their youth.

100 RESILIENT CITIES: MEXICO CITY STEPS

146 147 VI. NEXT STEPS

After adoption of the CDMX Resilience Strategy by the Resilience Steering Committee (Comité Directivo de Resiliencia) of the CICCDF, the implementation stage will begin. This stage will be an inclusive process; stakeholders from government, the private sector, non-governmental organizations (NGOs), and the scientific community will participate as responsible parties and partners in specific activities within the framework of the five pillars for creating resilience in the CDMX and the region.

The path toward the creation of resilience is a process that involves continuous learning to address the multiple risks that the city is exposed to in a dynamic environment. The creation of an MRV system will be a key element in establishing periodic evaluations and facilitating continuous learning, because the MRV system will be linked to the Monitoring of the CDMX Climate Change Action Program (SSPACCM). Inclusion of NGOs in implementation actions and the MRV system would be innovative and address the need to share responsibilities.

Building resilience is a process that uses long-term planning and implementation actions to meet the Resilience Strategy goals. The Resilience Office for CDMX will pursue the following objectives:

• Coordinate transdisciplinary and interdisciplinary work for designing, implementing, monitoring, and evaluating the Resilience Strategy goals and actions. • Provide innovative solutions to existing and potential resilience challenges in the VII city and the region. • Identify and promote the implementation of global best practices for resilience in the city. • Provide technical assistance and collaboration to 100RC partners. APPENDIX CHAPTER I. INTRODUCTION • Promote the incorporation of the principles of resilience in public planning and actions at different levels of government (boroughs, city, and the region). 100 RESILIENT CITIES: MEXICO CITY • Promote regional coordination and create collaborative mechanisms between different levels of government on critical resilience issues. • Promote agreements between stakeholders from different sectors and public- private collaborations to reduce chronic stresses and improve responsiveness to shocks. • Promote citizen communication, education, and participation campaigns to build and strengthen resilience in society. • Monitor the Government of Mexico City’s on its commitment to allocate 10 percent of public expenditures to actions that contribute to resilience improvements.

Resilience will be built in the city through joint efforts; thus, continued support from the institutions and organizations that have been identified so far will be essential. In addition, the Resilience Strategy is a living process that will continue to identify new resilience opportunities and stakeholders interested in and committed to joining this collective and inclusive effort to create a resilient CDMX and region.
