This talk explores the challenges and opportunities for integrating stormwater management and urban planning beyond traditional flooding control approaches along the United States-Mexico border. Green infrastructure can help to develop flooding resilience and environmental justice when reframed as a transformative planning and governance strategy supporting social equity and integrated socio-ecological landscapes across the border. The presentation focuses on the case of Ambos Nogales on the Arizona-Mexico border, but its concepts are relevant to other border cities confronting similar challenges.
