The province of García Rovira (Santander) has been the protagonist ofambitious road infrastructure projects, carried out through the figure of Temporary Authorization, for the extraction of construction materials used on the roads. The environmental liabilities represented in the soil by mining activities covered by Temporary Authorizations in the province were evaluated. Two projects associated with Temporary Authorizations were selected, in which the execution conditions were analyzed, and the closure and recovery plans of the intervened areas were compared. The projects SCR-08491 in El Término (Guaca) and LHO-14372 in the Servitá River Basin (Concepción) were selected, in which exploitation fronts and mining support areas devoid of vegetation cover, mainly abandoned mining infrastructure, were observed. It is concluded that the contractors focus mainly on complying with the exploitation plan, downplaying the execution of the closure, abandonment, and recovery phase ofthe intervened area. Inefficient control and monitoring of this type of projects by the environmental authority was evident. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

El objetivo de este artículo, es describir una propuesta de innovación comercial para garantizar la sostenibilidad de una asociación de mujeres rurales - ASOMMUC - localizada en una zona rural alejada de los principales centros urbanos del suroccidente de Colombia. La metodología empleada es la ruta de innovación social del PCIS (Parque Científico de Innovación Social de la Corporación Universitaria Minuto de Dios), donde se construyó junto a la asociación, una propuesta de innovación comercial para aumentar las ventas de sus productos. Esta propuesta fue validada en el mercado con un PMV (Producto Mínimo Viable) instalado en un corredor comercial perteneciente a una nueva ruta gastronómica de la región, con el fin de realizar ventas directas, evitar la intermediación y respaldar una mayor rentabilidad en las ventas de la asociación. El PMV resultó con ingresos superiores en un 67% respecto a experiencias de ventas similares en la asociación. Finalmente, con la sistematización de esta experiencia, se propone un modelo conceptual para dinamizar la comercialización de los productos de asociaciones rurales, el cual puede ser escalable a otras organizaciones latinoamericanas, con los respectivos ajustes a sus propios contextos territoriales.

El presente artículo aborda el tema de la inteligencia artificial y sus implicaciones éticas, sociales y ambientales para el desarrollo sostenible y qué relación tiene entre sí. La metodología utilizada fue de tipo exploratoria con un enfoque cualitativo. En la cual se realizó una investigación exhaustiva en diferentes fuentes, artículos y base de datos cumpliendo con todos los parámetros de rigurosidad en la cual adentramos a conocer el tema ampliamente y los diferentes enfoques dados. Cabe resaltar que la inteligencia artificial ha sido una herramienta ampliamente utiliza en diversas áreas de la sociedad en cual ha tenido un impacto significativo en el desarrollo sostenible, social y ético, pero a su vez ha tenido grandes riesgos y desafíos que la humanidad ha tenido que afrontar legítimamente en el uso y paramentos en beneficio común para la sociedad. Por otro lado, es de mucha importancia cumplir las leyes y regulaciones para minimizar los riesgos éticos que puedan ocurrir en el desarrollo, implementación y usabilidad de esta tecnología de manera justa, responsable y transparente para evitar posibles amenazas. Por último, en términos ambientales la (IA) ha contribuido en la conservación de la biodiversidad con el objetivo de potenciar y gestionar la sostenibilidad ambiental en la mitigación de problemas ambientales a nivel mundial. Para lograr el desarrollo sostenible, estos impactos éticos, sociales y ambientales deben abordarse para garantizar que la inteligencia artificial se utilice de manera justa y responsable y contribuya al bienestar social y la protección ambiental.

Tanto en Europa como en nuestro Estado, la política de aguas tiene por finalidad proteger el agua como recurso para, con ello, asegurar las necesidades humanas de suministro y el desempeño de su función en los ecosistemas naturales. Pero ninguna política pública se basta por sí misma para conseguir sus objetivos, pues es necesario articular jurídicamente su relación con otras políticas y otros sectores del ordenamiento jurídico. En este artículo se analizan las relaciones en España entre la política de aguas y el planeamiento urbanístico; en dichas relaciones (aunque presididas por el principio de coordinación y el respeto a los ámbitos competenciales de todos los niveles de poder territorial del Estado), el principio constitucional de sostenibilidad, la política de aguas de la UE y la puesta en valor del urbanismo ecosistémico inclinan doctrinal y jurisprudencialmente el punto de equilibrio hacia la prevalencia (con matices y límites competenciales) de los instrumentos jurídicos en los que se plasma la política de aguas.

El presente artículo de investigación tiene como objetivo analizar el nivel del desarrollo sostenible en zonas urbanas de Latinoamérica; a partir de la revisión bibliográfica multidimensionalidad, con el fin de contribuir al análisis y el desarrollo de acciones concretas que fomenten la sostenibilidad. Para ello, se realizó una revisión sistemática basada en el método PRISMA limitando la búsqueda desde enero de 2018 hasta julio de 2023, utilizando las bases de datos Scopus y Scielo y el motor de búsqueda Google Académico, con la intención de sistematizar y analizar los artículos sobre el desarrollo sostenible. De esta manera, se analizaron 15 artículos de diferentes autores, idiomas y países. Como resultado, se precisó que los países Latinoamericanos muestran tres distintos niveles de desarrollo sostenible: avanzado, intermedio y bajo, siendo este último el de mayor preponderancia en la región con un 46.67%, entre los artículos analizados. Adicionalmente, se pudo apreciar que la situación constantemente cambia con base en el enfoque y la dimensión abordada. Como conclusión del estudio se puntualiza que, aunque se presentan avances en áreas como la educación universitaria y las energías renovables, existen diferentes desafíos en la gestión del agua y el control de residuos, la innovación tecnológica y la sostenibilidad en la industria extractiva.

Las decisiones de compra constituyen un proceso psicológico y económico de elección de un producto a adquirir. Esta dinámica varía en cada generación según el contexto social, por ello, esta investigación presenta una revisión sistemática con el objetivo de analizar la literatura existente sobre las decisiones de compra y el desarrollo sostenible en el marco generacional de los Millennials y Centennials (Y y Z) teniendo en cuenta la metodología Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses for Protocols (PRISMA). Los resultados refieren una inclinación de la literatura por las compras en línea, las compras con atributos sostenibles y en cierto grado compras de marcas de lujo, todas estas como manifestaciones de los cambios en los comportamientos de compra de estas generaciones en referencia al desarrollo sostenible, por lo que se recomienda seguir indagando sobre cómo dichos grupos van ajustando su dinámica adquisitiva en función a su distintiva preocupación por el medio ambiente.

En este estudio, se aborda la creciente tendencia global hacia el urbanismo y la economía circular, enfocándose en cómo estas disciplinas, junto con el desarrollo económico sostenible, pueden contribuir a la construcción de un modelo de resiliencia económica que favorezca un entorno bajo en carbono y promueva un avance sustentable. Mediante la revisión de 77 documentos, se exploró cómo la integración del urbanismo sostenible, que atiende a la mitigación de los impactos urbanísticos y al uso eficiente de los recursos, junto con los principios de la circularidad, que promueven la reducción de residuos y la optimización de los recursos naturales, pueden fundamentar un enfoque que armonice el crecimiento con la sostenibilidad y la equidad social. Esta investigación propone un Modelo Económico Resiliente que sintetiza estos enfoques con estrategias de desarrollo sostenible, destacando la importancia de políticas y acciones coordinadas entre gobiernos, empresas y la sociedad para lograr un equilibrio entre el bienestar económico, la justicia social y la protección del medioambiente, al tiempo que se señalan los desafíos en la comprensión e implementación de estas prácticas integradas y la necesidad de inversiones significativas y educación en sostenibilidad.

Esta investigación tiene como objetivo diagnosticar la Nueva Agenda Urbana como herramienta del gobierno local para impulsar la renaturalización frente al cambio climático. Se utilizó un enfoque cualitativo, con un método etnográfico. Se recolectaron datos mediante observación participante y entrevistas no estructuradas a representantes de alcaldías, ONG, representantes del sector salud, consejos comunales y gremios profesionales con experiencia en el área ambiental, además de efectuar una revisión del estado del arte de las categorías de estudio. Se realizó triangulación para asegurar la fiabilidad de la información obtenida. Entre los hallazgos encontrados se destaca que la función del gobierno local es hacer crecer la ciudad como un organismo vivo, mejorando espacios verdes y plazas con estrategias de renaturalización para mitigar los efectos del cambio climático. Se observan esfuerzos del gobierno local para resolver estos problemas, pero los históricos problemas de la ciudad parecen mitigar los esfuerzos de las autoridades locales a orientar la planificación para buscar soluciones viables y atenuar los efectos del cambio climático. El gobierno local deberá generar políticas que fomenten espacios verdes, balcones y terrazas verdes en áreas públicas para contribuir con los Objetivos del Desarrollo Sostenible (ODS). Se puede concluir que la Nueva Agenda Urbana constituye una herramienta valiosa para el gobierno local en la promoción de la renaturalización y la lucha contra el cambio climático. Se necesitan políticas públicas que incentiven la creación de espacios verdes y la participación ciudadana para lograr ciudades más sostenibles y recipientes. Esta investigación proporciona información valiosa sobre el papel de la NAU en la promoción de la renaturalización y la lucha contra el cambio climático. Los resultados pueden ser utilizados por el gobierno local, las ONG, la academia y la comunidad en general para desarrollar estrategias más efectivas para la construcción de ciudades más sostenibles y resilientes.

The first phase utilized bibliometric analysis, while the second phase adopted a hermeneutic approach. A total of 822 studies were analyzed in the initial phase, followed by an in-depth examination of 23 studies in the second phase. Results: The findings underscore the burgeoning growth and increasing relevance of the green economy. Moreover, they outline the key thematic tensions that define the intersection between sustainability and the principles of the green economy. Conclusions: This study provides a comprehensive synthesis of the challenges and potentials inherent in the green economy as a field of study. It also offers insights into future research directions to further elucidate its current state and trajectory.

En la última década, las investigaciones relacionadas con la Economía Solidaria (ES) han propiciado el marco para el establecimiento de un modelo alternativo de desarrollo. Esta investigación tiene como objetivo presentar un análisis bibliométrico de los estudios sobre este tema, principalmente desde la visión latinoamericana y española, de los últimos 10 años (2013-2023). La metodología aplicada es predominantemente cuantitativa, enfocada al análisis bibliométrico de una muestra de 487 artículos publicados en Scopus y Web of Science, de 2013 a 2023. Los softwares utilizados son Bibliometrix y NVIVO 14. Los principales resultados demuestran el aumento en el impacto y número de publicaciones, así como, se identifican las revistas, autores, instituciones, artículos y clústeres de conceptos más relevantes sobre el tema en el periodo de estudio. Se observa que los temas motores relacionados con la ES son: innovación social, desarrollo social, policía pública, emprendedurismo, entre otros. En las investigaciones sobre ES, se observa que éstas se enfocan en temas relacionados con los Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible propuestos por las Naciones Unidas, desde lo local, es decir, desde la participación activa, colectiva y solidaria de los miembros de una comunidad.

La experiencia, más que visitar un nuevo lugar, comprende un encuentro entre culturas, personas y entornos naturales, que impacta tanto en los viajeros como en los destinos turísticos visitados. El presente estudio propuso determinar cómo la experiencia turística promueve un turismo sostenible en la Reserva Nacional de Lachay (RNL), Lima, Perú. Se desarrolló mediante un enfoque cualitativo, fenomenológico, con casos de estudio identificados mediante la técnica de muestreo bola de nieve; se identificaron cinco profesionales con experticia en el desarrollo de experiencias turísticas, a quienes se les entrevistó mediante una guía de entrevista semiestructurada. Se concluye que la RNL es un espacio turístico natural que ofrece a los turistas la posibilidad de experimentar sensaciones agradables a través de los sentidos, principalmente el sentido auditivo y visual; además, la visita permite reconocer e interiorizar el significado e importancia del ecosistema de lomas, ayudando a comprender la necesidad de su conservación para el beneficio de las generaciones futuras. Cabe precisar que la generación de experiencia turística requiere la confluencia de distintos elementos naturales, materiales y humanos, que repercute en beneficios económicos, sociales y ambientales para los turistas y la comunidad anfitriona.

El turismo rural comunitario representa una actividad propulsora del desarrollo económico local aprovechando sosteniblemente los recursos de una comunidad. El Área de Conservación Privada Bosque Seco de Colina Juan Velasco Alvarado -ACP BSC JVA- tiene potencial turístico latente que, hasta la fecha, no ha sido debidamente explotado por la Comunidad Campesina Juan Velasco Alvarado -CC JVA-. El objetivo del estudio consiste en formular una propuesta de desarrollo de turismo rural comunitario del ACP BSC JVA. Se ejecutó un análisis situacional de la oferta y demanda turística del área donde se reconocieron al Cerro Pilán, la Mina Inca, los Jaguayes Salas y Cerezo como los recursos turísticos más importantes, mientras que el principal problema identificado fue la deficiente gestión del turismo del ACP BSC JVA por parte de la CC JVA. Como resultado final, se elaboró una propuesta de plan de acción que plantea el fortalecimiento de capacidades, la mejora de la infraestructura ecológica y la formación de alianzas estratégicas, para así lograr la sostenibilidad de la gestión de los recursos naturales en el bosque seco y el progreso de la comunidad local.

Hablar de sostenibilidad en el contexto social, económico y medioambiental global, en general, y latinoamericano, en específico, parece ser actualmente una contradictio in adjecto. El presente artículo contiene algunas reflexiones, y más que nada, una serie razonada de preocupaciones sobre las más acuciantes problemáticas respecto del desarrollo sostenible y del sistema capitalista imperante. En el desarrollo del presente trabajo se toman categorías claves de la teoría social clásica, es decir, de autores como Marx, Durkheim y Weber, para pensar y repensar la relación desarrollo sostenible-capitalismo. En el primer apartado se analiza al capitalismo, tanto sus límites y contradicciones, desde estos tres autores; en el segundo apartado se interpreta el concepto y la posible operativización del desarrollo sostenible; por último, se realiza, de la mano de las categorías previamente desarrolladas, algunas interpretaciones críticas sobre la relación y la compatibilidad del desarrollo sostenible en el marco sistémico del capitalismo.

The research purpose is to analyse the importance of STEM education for college students and its influence on their intercultural self-awareness and self-efficacy. The study used analytical, statistical, psychodiagnostic research methods. The methodological framework was based on the understanding of STEM as an integrative educational approach within socio-cultural and cross-cultural contexts, as well as considering social-cognitive theory and Albert Bandura's concept of self-efficacy. The research used the following methods: research methodology for measuring individual self-efficacy (Schwarzer, Yerusalem, Romek); test to measure the level of self-efficacy (Maddux, Scheer, revised by Boyarintseva and Krichevsky); Integrative Questionnaire of Intercultural Competence (Khukhlaev, Gritsenko, Makarchuk, etc.); and Transcultural Self-Efficacy Tool (TSET). Both STEM education and foreign language teaching are important aspects which help to improve the students' self-awareness and self-efficacy in intercultural communication, as well as increasing intercultural stability and cross-border interests and managing intercultural relations. The indicator of the interpersonal communication scale (Student's t-test = 4.89898, p <.05) was statistically significantly different in the repeated test. The score increased more significantly in the control than in the experimental group. The practical significance of the results of the study lies in the possibility of their application for the development of intercultural self-awareness and increasing the self-efficacy of college students. Prospective research is planned to be directed to the study of racial and gender characteristics of the impact of STEM education on intercultural self-awareness and self-efficacy of students.

This research study compares two methods of cellulose extraction from Theobroma cacao L. (CMT) clone Federación Arauquita 5 (FEAR 5) husks. Method 1 (Lubis) is an alkaline treatment with heating that uses sodium hydroxide and whitening with sodium hypochlorite. In the second method, a soxhlet extraction is conducted for a period of six hours, followed by an alkaline-acidic treatment. Physicochemical and thermographic analyzes are conducted to identify characteristics specific to the extraction method. The results show that the highest mass cellulose yield is obtained by the modified Lubis method 1 with 27.09%. It is concluded that the cellulose obtained can be produced and used to develop biotechnological products, contributing to the circular economy and the sustainable development of cocoa in the Department of Risaralda, Colombia.

The Chilean Consumer Protection Law does not mention sustainable consumption as an explicit principle. In this context, the objective of this work lies in investigating its possible validity as a general principle of consumer law in Chile. The research managed to prove the initial hypothesis that postulated the legal effectiveness of sustainable consumption as a general principle of consumer law. In fact, from the use of the dogmatic methodology, it was concluded that its validity can also be derived from a harmonious and systematic interpretation of the principles and rules that the Chilean legal system actually contains. Specifically, the normative effectiveness of sustainable consumption can be derived from two ways within the techniques of legal positivism. The first of them consists of a concretization of general principles, which, in the hypothesis presented, would correspond to pro natura and pro homine. Secondly, sustainable consumption as a general principle would be obtained from a generalization made from specific manifestations. The latter would be rooted in the consecration of basic consumer rights, the discipline of information and advertising, as well as the establishment of mechanisms to extend the durability of goods.

This article analyzes the constitutional implications of the future validity of the Escazú Agreement (Regional Agreement on Access to Information, Public Participation and Access to Justice in Environmental Matters in Latin America and the Caribbean) in the legal Peruvian system. Second, this article analyzes whether there is consistency between the content of this regional treaty on environmental procedural rights and what is prescribed by the Constitution of Peru. This implies analyzing a series of constitutional principles associated with the Ecological Constitution, the principle of sustainability, the fundamental right to enjoy a healthy environment and the constitutional design of state environmental tasks. Through a documentary analysis of normative, jurisprudential and doctrinal sources on environmental matters, environmental procedural rights are described and their consistency at the level of constitutional regulation with other constitutional goods, such as economic freedoms, is analyzed. Finally, Peru faces various political challenges to improve the public management of its natural resources and thereby define its own model of environmental democracy. In this sense, the Escazú Agreement represents a challenge as well as an opportunity to give greater legitimacy to the planning of public decisions on ecosystems and the use of natural resources, and thereby avoid a possible impact on the fundamental right to a healthy environment.

In September 2015, all UN member states announced the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) as part of the 2030 Agenda. This is a universal call to action to end poverty, protect the planet and improve the lives and prospects of people around the world. This paper aims to determine the most relevant characteristics of the discourse about this action plan, proposed by seven digital newspapers with the highest readership in Spain during the eight years following the enactment of the initiative. On the one hand, a statistical analysis has been carried out of the published articles, as well as of most-mentioned entities, industries, regions, themes and people or public agents. On the other hand, a computerised linguistic corpus analysis was carried out, showing the main word associations made by each headline and the length of the corresponding journalistic pieces. The main results reveal a generalised increase of the number of news items, especially from 2020 onwards. Furthermore, there is a clear prominence of the social dimension of sustainability and sustainable development, in contrast to the scarce relevance of the ecological and environmental aspect in most of the digital newspapers. The conclusion is that the Spanish press discourse on SDGs and the 2030 Agenda is heterogeneous and, furthermore, that there is currently no example that fully complies with the values of sustainable journalism.

The Sustainable Development Goals as a global policy provide universities with the opportunity to offer information and innovative solutions in international forums. In recent years, scientific research on the SDGs has not only grown, but has also diversified. However, the relevant gaps in studies on the subject affect compliance with the Agenda2030. This article aims to evaluate the Brazilian university system's research into SDGs. It also proposes a methodological objective which is to verify whether, through the analysis of scientific production, profiles can be identified, and university entities can be grouped based on their similarity in the priority they give to different topics. A bibliometric analysis is carried out where the production and normalized impact of Brazilian universities are studied, as well as a multidimensional scaling. The results reveal that the Brazilian production of each SDG is concentrated in five universities and that, in general, the entities' contribution to the SDGs achieve a lower impact than the world average except for the theme "Life on Land" (SDG15). This suggests that Brazilian research into the SDGs pursues a contribution of scientific knowledge of the local geographical scope. Furthermore, the data indicate the presence of few universities with unique profiles when it comes to prioritizing scientific contributions to the SDGs. Faced with the global challenge of more diverse and plural knowledge production, Brazilian centers can take advantage to expand their scientific production on the SDGs on a more strategic scale with the purpose of influencing the universal political agenda. The study enriches the understanding of the scientific contribution to the SDGs by Brazilian universities. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Throughout history - from Roman times to the present - there have been numerous examples of how important the legal profession is for society. In every proceeding they are involved in and noble cause they champion, legal professionals contribute to protecting not only their clients' interests, but also those of society as a whole. From an individual's law of the skill (lex artis) to collective responsibility, and from the specifics of a case to the more generalised search for justice, the legal profession's role in society has been evident for centuries, to the extent that it is now an essential component of the principle of effective judicial protection. Bar associations have also contributed by ensuring that lawyers are able to exercise their legally established mandate freely and independently while ensuring that the rules of law and professional conduct are complied with.
