This paper examines the role of local governments in a multilevel governance system for risk management in Mexico City, focusing on how they mobilize collaborative resources to address multiple climate and non-climate risks. The study finds that vertical and horizontal collaboration are key for coordination, with more common collaboration between local governments and the subnational government. Actions primarily focus on forecasting, prevention, preparedness, and relief. The research highlights successful elements of multilevel governance but also identifies a need for further research on the involvement of NGOs and private actors.
