Producción y consumo responsable: ODS 12 (edX)

Offered by Universidad del Rosario, URosarioX,
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.

Tratándose de uno de los ejes de la Cátedra Unesco en Desarrollo Sostenible, el acceso a la formación con un enfoque territorial, diferencial y crítico, nuestro propósito es, en el marco de los Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible (ODS), específicamente el ODS 12 sobre "Producción y consumo responsable", ofrecer este curso en línea que permita producir dinámicas pedagógicas, de indagación e innovación sobre las formas en las cuáles se está dando respuesta a este ODS 12 desde las iniciativas ciudadanas y la academia.
Particularmente, insistiremos en el principal indicador que se ha venido usando para medir el grado de respuesta del ODS 12: el uso y manejo de residuos.
La tierra necesita que sepamos reparar, desde sus propias dinámicas, los errores que hemos cometido con el manejo de nuestros residuos, así que la invitación es a aprender y dialogar sobre cómo mejorar la relación con nuestros residuos y contribuir a un ambiente sano en la ciudad tanto como productores y consumidores.

Civil society organizations (CSOs) are key actors in development that have valuable contributions to make. They play a multitude of roles - including in relation to humanitarian assistance, service-delivery, research and policy development, and pursuing accountability from governments and other stakeholders – all of which can significantly contribute to the realization of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). CSOs are expected to play a critical role in implementing the SDGs and in monitoring their progress. It is therefore urgent that CSOs meaningfully and effectively engage in development processes.
