CORDOVA BOJORQUEZ, Gustavo. Public Participation in Environmental Infrastructure Projects In the Sonora-Arizona Border Region (1996-2017). Norteamérica [online]. 2018, vol.13, n.2, pp.169-195. ISSN 2448-7228.  https://doi.org/10.22201/cisan.24487228e.2018.2.329.

The author analyzes public participation processes in 51 environmental infrastructure projects certified by the Border Environment Cooperation Commission (BECC) along the Sonora-Arizona border from 1996 to 2017. In particular, he looks at citizen participation in the Monitoring Committees and the way in which the becc has generated a governance model capable of achieving creative public deliberation agreed upon by the different participating actors.
