This paper describes the objectives and methodologies of two disaster relief mechanisms developed by federal agencies in Mexico. The Natural Disaster Fund provides emergency financial support to non-insured public infrastructure. The Natural Disaster Preventive Fund supports preventative approaches for buildings located in high-risk zones that have been damaged or repaired as a result of a natural disaster. These funds represent a new integrated approach to disaster management in educational policy in Mexico.
