  3. Characteristics of International Cooperation • Mexico has a dual rol both as a recipient as well as a country which offers cooperation. • The International Law of Cooperation for Development, published at the DOF (acronym in spanish) on April 6, 2011, creates the Agency of International Cooperation for Development. • The SEDESOL, with its counterparts from other countries, highlights cooperation under the format of shared costs, and the contribution of resources varies depending on the modality and the type of agreement reached.

  4. Principles of International Cooperation in Mexico: • EXPERIENCE EXCHANGE: the international cooperation strategy is based in the principle of shared efforts as the best way to obtain mutual benefits. • STRENGTHENING OF CAPACITIES: through training, joint research, consultants, etc, in a way that they favor integral social development within the different areas of action. • COMPLEMENTARITY: The object is to contribute and strengthen local efforts and the areas which require improvements, in accordance with the capacities of the various cooperating partners. • IMPLEMENTING BETTER PRACTICES: exchanging experiences is useful to find out what works and what doesn't in different areas. Through cooperation, what works can be replicated.
