¿Qué impacto puede tener la infraestructura en la sociedad y el medioambiente? Resulta fundamental adoptar un enfoque integral de la sostenibilidad a la hora de pensar en infraestructura, a fin de potenciar un desarrollo social y económico sostenible e inclusivo, como estipula la Visión 2025 del Grupo BID.
Este enfoque es clave para minimizar los impactos negativos sobre el medioambiente y el clima, disminuir la desigualdad social e impulsar la productividad aspectos claves para lograr una sólida recuperación tras la pandemia de la COVID- 19.
Por todo esto, la infraestructura sostenible es reconocida como un cimiento para cumplir los Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible de Naciones Unidas y alcanzar las metas del Acuerdo de París para enfrentar los efectos del cambio climático.
En este MOOC aprenderás cómo define el Banco Interamericano de Desarrollo (BID) la infraestructura sostenible y cuáles son sus beneficios.

Producción y consumo responsable: ODS 12 (edX)

Aprende las formas de producir y consumir sanamente a partir de un enfoque agroecológico, contribuyendo así al cuidado del planeta. Este curso en línea se enfoca en el objetivo número 12 de los Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible de las Naciones Unidas. Partiendo de la hipótesis de que hay un desconocimiento generalizado sobre los impactos, alcances y acciones en el desarrollo de los Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible (ODS), junto a la falta de claridad sobre la participación efectiva de las organizaciones de la sociedad civil, se propone la realización del siguiente curso en el que se abordará, para comenzar, el ODS 12 buscando generar un diálogo multilateral con participación del gobierno, academia, organizaciones sociales y público interesado.
