Lineamientos contextualizados para la gestión sostenible de residuos sólidos domiciliarios generados en 2 sectores rurales del municipio Villa de San Diego de Ubaté, Cundinamarca, 2022-2027

Abstract

The municipality of Villa de San Diego de Ubaté, Cundinamarca, has nine rural areas which present problems associated with the inadequate management of household solid waste.

This mainly due to a partial coverage in the provision of public sanitation services. Therefore, the present work focuses on the Chirquín and El Cedro sectors of the Guatancuy rural area. This work studies the context of the territory through a mixed methodology (quantitative and qualitative techniques), which allowed the characterization, analysis and interpretation of the current household solid waste management, in the phases of integrated management in relation to the dimensions of sustainable development. In this way, the contextualized guidelines were constructed based on the SWOT analysis, the potentialities, challenges, risks and limitations of the territory using the Methodology for the elaboration of local development strategies (ECLAC, 2012).

As a result, the contextualized guidelines frame actions and strategies in all dimensions of the sustainable development and the phases of integrated household solid waste management. Finally, after its presentation, there was a favorable acceptance by the institution, expressing the feasibility of articulation with the municipality's Integrated Solid Waste Management Plan (or PGIRS for its acronym in Spanish).
