- Abstract
The effects of catastrophic events are magnified by different regional and local vulnerabilities. The multiple risks and socio-environmental stresses of vulnerable areas are also associated with unequal planning, prevention, and mitigation of disasters; inefficient operation of early warning systems; insufficient institutional capacity for post-disaster response; and, in peri-urban areas such as Mexico City (CDMX), due to the presence of informal settlements. According to the definition of the risk management system (norms, public policies and actions), this work evaluates the dimensions, approaches and components of the design and application of disaster risk management policies in CDMX in relation to informal settlements. The dimensions, Normative, Systemic and Procedural, are evaluated for seven documents (initiative, law, program, regulation, manual, guideline, and risk atlas). It is concluded that the explanatory frameworks for vulnerability, sustainability and irregular human settlements, resilience and risks focus on linking the capacities, principles, and elements of recovery to increase performance in urban systems, which would allow the definition of strategies in the face of disruptive events. However, there are not integrated the following: the type of risks; resilience elements and capacities; populations or stakeholders; and performance management processes and systems at the strategic and operational level considering the complexity of the dimensions, relationships, and effects between the sustainability components.
