Brugada reports to Congress on Azerbaijan trip, says Mexico City positioned as voice of municipalism

Mexico City Mayor Clara Brugada has submitted a report to the local Congress detailing her participation in the World Urban Forum (WUF) in Baku, Azerbaijan. During the forum, Brugada emphasized Mexico City's position as a proponent of international municipalism and feminist urbanism.

Her key messages focused on housing as a fundamental human right, the importance of cities for peace and equality, and the concept of "care cities." The report highlighted the city's delegation, which included representatives from the Mexican government, advocating for housing to be recognized as a human right and for governments to ensure its provision.

Further engagements saw discussions on regenerating historic urban areas while preserving their social, cultural, and economic balance, with an emphasis on community involvement in planning. Mexico City was also formally announced as the host for the 2028 World Urban Forum (WUF14), receiving a preferential space at the Urban Expo to showcase its "City of Utopias" concept and public care system.
