ResumenEste trabajo tiene el propósito de evaluar la gestión municipal de Residuos Sólidos Urbanos en el municipio de Mexicali, México a través del marco de la sustentabilidad. Las áreas urbanas representan un foco de atención para las administraciones locales ya que representan espacios de importancia económica en el Producto Interno Bruto. Al mismo tiempo, en estas áreas se favorece la concentración de población y la contaminación del aire, agua y suelo en estas áreas. El análisis comprendió revisión documental, entrevistas semi-estructuradas y talleres participativos, agrupada en tres apartados: marco jurídico-normativo, buenas prácticas de gestión sustentable de residuos sólidos urbanos y diagnóstico municipal. El balance muestra avances en el marco jurídico con una débil instrumentación operativa y la necesidad de crear o reforzar el desarrollo de investigación, conformación de mercados, monitoreo, información y participación pública.

Urban areas are key issues for local governments since they are spaces whose production contributes significantly to the gross domestic product. At the same time, concentration of population in these areas and thereby increase of air, water and soil pollution are favored. The analysis included literature review, semi-structured interviews and participatory workshops, where information was grouped into three sections: legal and regulatory framework, best practices in sustainable management of urban solid wastes and municipal assessment. The overall balance shows advances in the legal aspects but regulations are poorly implemented. Also, it is needed to reinforce the development of research, market creation, monitoring, information and public participation.
