Both, visible in the performance carried out by the government of the city of Bogota during the period 2013 -2016, which due to the characteristics of its territory, developed its performance in environmental matters enough to make its way and become a relevant actor within the construction of global environmental governance. Thus, a micro actor that changed the performance of the macrostructure due to the implementation of South-South and triangular cooperation, which is a legacy that remains to this day in the development of network cooperation.
