Book 17 Objetivos para un mundo mejor

Download or read book 17 Objetivos para un mundo mejor written by Nazareno Castillo Marin and published by . This book was released on 2019-08-21 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El principal mérito de este libro de Nazareno Castillo Marín es el de explicar de una manera sencilla y amena, pero basado en datos y estadísticas sólidas, las cuestiones fundamentales que abordan los Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible de la Agenda 2030 y las interrelaciones que los determinan y conectan. El éxito de esta Agenda, dependerá de un trabajo interdisciplinario de investigadores y científicos, y de dirigentes y líderes que estén a la altura de las circunstancias. Pero también de muchos que sean difusores de esta nueva oportunidad que se le presenta a la humanidad y nos sensibilicen a todos nosotros de su perentoriedad. Por eso bienvenidos textos como que el aquí presentado (Luis Di Pietro Paolo -Coordinador Proyecto ODS -Consejo Nacional de Coordinación de Políticas Sociales - Argentina).Los ODS son una herramienta fundamental de planificación para los países que quieran avanzar en un sendero de desarrollo económico, social y ambiental inclusivo y sostenible. Ello implica poner al desarrollo humano, la equidad social y la salud ambiental en el centro de la agenda pública. Desde su gestación se estableció la necesidad de implementar mecanismos de medición y seguimiento de los mismos. Si bien la responsabilidad de ello la tiene cada gobierno, teniendo en cuenta sus prioridades y particularidades, el sistema de Naciones Unidas se comprometió a apoyarlos, y estableció una lista de indicadores globales que deberán complementar los sistemas de medición regional y nacional. Generar información pública veraz, clara, concreta y accesible facilitará la rendición de cuentas y la respuesta de la sociedad sobre los avances en cada uno de los objetivos de desarrollo sostenible. Está aquí quizás la principal virtud de esta publicación, que permite al lector conocer y entender de una manera simple indicadores para la medición de una diversidad de problemáticas, incluyendo, la pobreza, la desigualdad, el crecimiento económico, el hambre, el desempleo, el estrés hídrico y las emisiones de gases efecto invernadero.

Book Gu  a metodol  gica de proyectos para el cumplimiento de los ODS  una visi  n desde el mundo en desarrollo

Download or read book Gu a metodol gica de proyectos para el cumplimiento de los ODS una visi n desde el mundo en desarrollo written by Inés Restrepo Tarquino and published by Universidad del Valle. This book was released on 2024-03-13 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Actualmente, los recursos se ejecutan a través de proyectos que deben estar armonizados con los planes y programas a nivel territorial, que tienen ahora los Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible (ODS) en la mira. Se espera que los proyectos de desarrollo permitan la participación de los distintos actores involucrados con el problema que se desea resolver y de las instituciones y organizaciones que apoyan la solución de ese tipo de problemas. Igualmente, los proyectos deben ser sostenibles social, económica y ambientalmente, y respetar los ecosistemas naturales. Deben promover el enfoque de género que incluye tanto a los hombres como a las mujeres y el enfoque de pobreza que permite a los más vulnerables obtener beneficios del desarrollo esperado. Uno de los mayores desafíos para los entes financiadores es identificar aquellos proyectos que permitan hacer un seguimiento de las actividades y productos, así como de los recursos económicos invertidos y el tiempo de ejecución. Por otra parte, los usuarios finales de productos y resultados deben tener las herramientas para hacer la veeduría ciudadana en todo el ciclo de los proyectos de desarrollo. Asimismo, lo ideal es que el equipo gestor del proyecto facilite la participación de actores gubernamentales, comunitarios, académicos (si es posible) y privados, y de personas con distintas formaciones educativas, además de los actores involucrados en la situación. Este libro propone un ciclo del proyecto de desarrollo participativo, en el que se promuevan todos los principios mencionados anteriormente. Es producto de la larga experiencia de los autores en la gestión de proyectos de investigación para el desarrollo ejecutados en el Instituto Cinara de la Universidad del Valle. El público esperado de este libro son las comunidades organizadas y los profesionales que apoyan la gestión de proyectos de desarrollo.

This book was released on 2023-12-21 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the face of escalating environmental degradation and dwindling natural resources, the imperative for sustainable production and consumption has taken center stage, compelling companies and consumers alike to seek a more sustainable path forward. Sustainable consumption and production entail the utilization of goods and services that strive to minimize detrimental impacts on the environment. This involves reducing the utilization of natural resources, toxic substances, and polluting emissions, all while ensuring the satisfaction of future generations' needs. Sustainable Consumption Experience and Business Models in the Modern World explores the crucial interplay between sustainability, businesses, and consumers. From a business standpoint, the pressing concerns surrounding sustainability drive the emergence of innovative sustainable products, services, and business models. Simultaneously, conscientious consumers increasingly gravitate towards sustainable alternatives, embracing the purchase of eco-friendly products and services, engaging in product exchanges, do-it-yourself initiatives, acquiring second-hand items, and participating in the sharing economy. Designed for professionals, students, and researchers in the field of sustainable marketing, this book covers a wide range of disciplines, including but not limited to sustainability, sustainable marketing, green products, second-hand goods, and consumer behavior.

Book Descentralizacion para Satisfacer Necesidades Basicas

Download or read book Descentralizacion para Satisfacer Necesidades Basicas written by J. Michael McGuire and published by IAP. This book was released on 2009-03-01 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Approximately 25% of Latin Americans live on less than $2 a day, and Latin America is the most unequal region of the world. Poverty and inequality cause suffering and slow development. The solution must include generating an inclusive development process through satisfying the basic needs of the poor that enhance their productivity, that enable them to contribute to the development process, and that enables them to earn the income necessary to live a full life. Decentralization of taxing and spending from the central government to lower levels of government can help to satisfy basic needs of the poor and create an inclusive development process. However, decentralization is a stepby-step process that must implemented by taking into account real-world circumstances such as a lack of administrative ability in local government, and by formulating policy accordingly. The book derives economic principles for implementing the process of decentralization, and it presents cases that illustrate the principles at work. It is an economic guide for policymakers and practitioners.

Book Advances in building engineering research

Download or read book Advances in building engineering research written by Manuel Álvarez Dorado and published by Dykinson. This book was released on 2024-03 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book, ADVANCES IN BUILDING ENGINEERING RESEARCH, has been conceived as a result of the efforts of some of the most relevant researchers in the field of building engineering at a national level. The work, well structured and composed of original research, shows through a didactic approach the current lines of work in which the construction sector in Spain is developing. Nowadays, nobody doubts that we are immersed in a process of change and technological innovation that fully affects the industry, and the construction sector is no stranger to it. Advances in technology and its application to everyday life, the excessive consumption of natural resources and the need to apply circular economy strategies, or the development of new sustainable construction materials, are some of the issues addressed in this book. Thus, in line with European guidelines and the Sustainable Development Goals set out in the 2030 Agenda, the European Union has established a roadmap that promotes responsible economic growth. It is for this reason that it is essential to address new ways of conceiving building in our country, and for this reason, it has been essential to have various collaborators from renowned Universities and Research Centres that have wanted to be part of this work. Undoubtedly, all the original research presented here deals with the process of innovation in building and is linked to the common paradigm of sustainability. However, despite the complexity of some of the topics covered in this compendium, the authors have tried to unify the criteria of academic rigour and agile and accessible presentation. For this reason, it is understood that this book is suitable both for doctoral students and researchers, as well as for people interested in popularising science with a basic training. This is perhaps the strong point of this work, which has been polished as a result of the criticisms received from all those colleagues who have been kind enough to read the final document and help to improve it. We would also like to thank all the authors who have responded to our call and have kindly contributed their excellent research to the creation of this book. The works that make up the different Chapters have been selected through a blind peer review process and are the result of the wide-ranging concerns and issues that are of concern to building professionals in the year 2024. Last but not least, we would like to thank the Department of Building Technology and especially its Director, Mr. Carlos Morón Fernández, for giving us the opportunity to carry out this initiative by providing us with the necessary means. We hope, with all our intention, to make known the research work that is being carried out in the field of building, with a firm commitment to technological innovation and sustainable development.
