Gaia:The experience behind local environmental bi-national collaborative initiatives in the Tijuana river watershed is examined, and the governmental participation from Mexico and the U.S. in those spheres. The analysis encompasses four main topics: the characteristics and environmental problems of the watershed; the local bi-national initiatives undertaken on the last decades; the governmental involvement in that experience, in the context of the structural differences between the two countries, and some reflections from the perspective of the global debate on the importance of local levels in trans-boundary watersheds. The results illustrate the potential that local initiatives as those studied, presents to complement the search for cooperative solutions to the common bi-national water problems. It is concluded that Minute 320 from CILA-IBWC represents a unique opportunity for the Mexican governmental instances to implement operative mechanisms to facilitate the interaction with their social and governmental counterparts at the sub-national levels.
