Acciones propuestas como política pública en el sector minero para contribuir al desarrollo sostenible

Abstract

This article presents the actions that the country’s public policy proposes to contribute to the fulfillment of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of Agenda 2030 that promote environmental sustainability in the mining sector. The Colombian Government, by proposing the extractivist model as one of the main drivers of economic growth in the country; intensifies the environmental challenges to be overcome in the mining industry; which must be considered as a critical factor in the definition of sector policies. As a result, extractive activities seek to align with the country’s green growth policies, through the integration of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of Agenda 2030 which offer an objective vision and give an opportunity to modify the paradigms of the sector.
