  • An idea worth spreading

    Convert developing countries and their educational and research centers in real networks working to achieve sustainable development. This Sustainable development must be through the creation of globals public policies rely on Environmental Leadership and Public Policies Based on Evidence, Science and Technology with focus on education. My idea is build globals consortia for open innovation (networking)for fighting global environmental impact and reach a huge social impact with cultural changes among countries by cooperation. A Example: Environmental Sustainability Educational Centers (ESECs): Greening the Cities. Our main objective is to create Environmental Sustainability Educational Centers (ESECs) for support and complement to student of local school (between 6-18 yrs), teachers, parents focused on environmental education, sustainability, production and consumption sustainable as well as topics on security food. ESECs will allow develop green projects to ccommunitarian level.

  • My TED story

    Latinoamerica with a variety of environments, landscapes and more than 20% of protected areas, need to identify its "natural capital", seen as an environmental function for a sustainable development while not compromising its development . Such capital is not restricted to natural resource exploitation, but rather defines itself as a function of value creation on the basis of goods and services that are based on their understanding of these natural resources, social and cultural factors. As a result through our history, relations between industry, environment and civil society has not been smooth, leaving the apparent lack of environmental regulations and socio-cultural disruption. The consideration of new models of coexistence, placing human being in his environment, will come only from the historical analysis of our relations towards the future in line with our idiosyncrasies incorporating these new challenges towards new public policies.
