Antecedentes

One of the biggest challenges today is to integrate sustainability into all areas of work in society. Sustainability is a management mode, which calls for the revision of traditional systems in the public and private sector and in the work of all social actors.

Beyond the 2030 Agenda approved by the United Nations General Assembly in 2015, society demands greater responsibility towards the planet and people; and greater involvement with the local environment in which we work and with future generations.
