This book was released on 2018 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La Agenda 2030 de Desarrollo Sostenible se ha hecho eco, por primera vez, de las demandas tanto del desarrollo humano como de la sostenibilidad ambiental. Su puesta en marcha supone diversos retos, y se presenta como un momento propicio para la reflexión: por un lado, sobre el encaje conceptual entre desarrollo, sostenibilidad ambiental y derechos humanos, su evolución y significado actual; por otro, sobre la validez y la aportación que las políticas de cooperación internacional para el desarrollo pueden ofrecer al proceso. La presente investigación se plantea, en una primera parte teórica (capítulos 1, 2 y 3), la relación entre los problemas ambientales y el desarrollo, la consideración del medio ambiente desde los derechos humanos, y el surgimiento del derecho humano al medio ambiente sano. En la segunda parte, analizará la asimilación de los derechos humanos y de las consideraciones medioambientales en las políticas de cooperación para el desarrollo de los países donantes de la OCDE/CAD, a través del enfoque de derechos humanos, por un lado, y de la sostenibilidad ambiental, por otro. Para finalizar se profundizará en el caso de la cooperación española.

Download or read book Pol tica ambiental y desarrollo sustentable written by Jorge Foa Torres and published by Eduvim. This book was released on 2020-05-04 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Este trabajo es producto del trabajo en las cátedras "Políticas Ambiental" y "Gestión Ambiental" de la Licenciatura en Ambiente y Energías Renovables y de la Licenciatura en Desarrollo Local Regional, respectivamente. En tal sentido, se constituye en un material didáctico que abreva en otras investigaciones y debates no sólo del campo ambiental sino, además, de la ciencia política, la economía política y las relaciones internacionales. Desde un primer momento la obra evita posicionamientos puramente técnicos o neutrales para, al mismo tiempo que identifica diferentes abordajes de las políticas ambientales, explicita el enfoque latinoamericano y crítica de la causa ambiental. A partir de ello, se lleva adelante una historización política en donde el antagonismo Norte-Sur es el criterio que sirve de base para la periodización y análisis de la política ambiental internacional de los últimos 50 años. Específicamente se hace énfasis en lo ambiental como un aspecto que se funde o se anuda a procesos económicos y políticos globales, transnacionales, regionales, nacionales y locales, antes que como una mera "dimensión" del desarrollo y las políticas.
Download or read book El Impacto Del Derecho Humano Al Medio Ambiente Sano En El Derecho Internacional De Inversiones written by Martha Isabel Robles Ustariz and published by Universidad Externado. This book was released on 2020-01-01 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Suele causar extrañeza presentar el estudio del arbitraje de inversiones junto con los derechos humanos; sin embargo, regímenes que en el pasado se veían sin punto de conexión hoy en día deben encontrarse para dar respuesta a nuevas realidades y buscar una armonización necesaria. La actual situación medioambiental y la posición del hombre frente a ella nos demuestra que el recién reconocido derecho humano al medio ambiente sano debe ser integrado con los demás derechos que regulan situaciones que lo afectan o podrán llegar a afectarlo. Entonces, la integración con el derecho de inversiones es inevitable. Mantener una visión aislada de los dos regímenes desconoce no solo la evolución del derecho, sino la urgente necesidad de proteger el medio ambiente y, por ende, el derecho que todo ser humano tiene a gozar de este de una manera sana. Por tanto, deben hallarse nuevos actores y nuevas formas de protección para lograr un equilibrio entre ambos.

This book was released on 2001 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The North American Mosaic has four overarching features. First, it is, to the extent feasible, based on comparable information on the status and trends of major indicators of the state of the environment in Canada,Mexico, and the United States. Second, the report confirms that these three countries together make up an incredibly complex, dynamic, and interconnected ecosystem in which humans play a dominant and decisive role. Third, the report raises important and sometimes disquieting questions concerning the sustainability of some current trends. Finally, the report is a reminder that our economic, social, and physical well-being are utterly dependent on the life-sustaining services provided by nature. This report emphasizes the importance of developing mutually compatible economic, social, and environmental goals and policies across the three-country region.

Book excerpt: This edition of the World Bank has been revised and expanded by the Terminology Unit in the Languages Services Division of the World Bank in collaboration with the English, Spanish, and French Translation Sections. The Glossary is intended to assist the Bank's translators and interpreters, other Bank staff using French and Spanish in their work, and free-lance translator's and interpreters employed by the Bank. For this reason, the Glossary contains not only financial and economic terminology and terms relating to the Bank's procedures and practices, but also terms that frequently occur in Bank documents, and others for which the Bank has a preferred equivalent. Although many of these terms, relating to such fields as agriculture, education, energy, housing, law, technology, and transportation, could be found in other sources, they have been assembled here for ease of reference. A list of acronyms occurring frequently in Bank texts (the terms to which they refer being found in the Glossary) and a list of international, regional, and national organizations will be found at the end of the Glossary.

Download or read book The Circular Economy and the Global South written by Patrick Schröder and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-04-12 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The circular economy is a policy approach and business strategy that aims to improve resource productivity, promote sustainable consumption and production and reduce environmental impacts. This book examines the relevance of the circular economy in the context of developing countries, something which to date is little understood. This volume highlights examples of circular economy practices in developing country contexts in relation to small and medium enterprises (SMEs), informal sector recycling and national policy approaches. It examines a broad range of case studies, including Argentina, Brazil, China, Colombia, India, Indonesia, Kenya, South Africa, and Thailand, and illustrates how the circular economy can be used as a new lens and possible solution to cross-cutting development issues of pollution and waste, employment, health, urbanisation and green industrialisation. In addition to more technical and policy oriented contributions, the book also critically discusses existing narratives and pathways of the circular economy in the global North and South, and how these differ or possibly even conflict with each other. Finally, the book critically examines under what conditions the circular economy will be able to reduce global inequalities and promote human development in the context of the Sustainable Development Goals. Presenting a unique social sciences perspective on the circular economy discourse, this book is relevant to students and scholars studying sustainability in economics, business studies, environmental politics and development studies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Benchmarking has become a key tool in the water industry to promote and achieve performance targets for utilities. The use of this tool for performance improvement through systematic search and adaptation of leading practices, has expanded globally during the past decade. Many ongoing projects worldwide aim to address different needs and objectives, in varying contexts, with outstanding results and impact. Benchmarking Water Services provides valuable information to everyone interested in benchmarking in the water industry. The text is aimed at utilities considering joining a benchmarking project, experienced practitioners in charge of organizing a benchmarking exercise, consultants, regulators and researchers. The document is presented with a clear practice oriented approach and can be used as a how-to-benchmark guide presented from different perspectives (participants, organizers, supervising bodies). Readers will gain practical insight on real life benchmarking practices and will benefit from the experiences gained in some of the leading benchmarking projects of the water industry (including the IWA-WSAA benchmarking efforts, the European Benchmarking Co-operation and the several benchmarking projects carried out in Austria and Central Europe). The manual also presents the new IWA Benchmarking Framework, which aims to harmonize the terms used to describe benchmarking and performance indicators practices in the water industry, guaranteeing a more fluent and efficient communication. This Manual of Best Practice is edited by the IWA Specialist Group on Benchmarking and Performance Assessment, and co-published by AWWA and IWA Publishing.
