Abstract

In this section of the program Voices and Regions, the country's self-sustainability is addressed from a regional perspective, highlighting the importance of food production, water supply, and public policies aimed at rural development. The analysis emphasizes how regions and departments play a crucial role in food security and the sustainable management of water resources. Various strategies implemented to strengthen community self-sufficiency are discussed, including local agricultural projects, the promotion of agroecological practices, and investment in infrastructure for water access and conservation. Additionally, the role of public policies in creating conditions for equitable and sustainable development in rural areas is highlighted, aiming to reduce regional inequalities and ensure community well-being. The program also showcases successful self-sustainability experiences in different departments, where collaboration between the government, community organizations, and the private sector has led to significant progress in local production and environmental management. This comprehensive approach seeks to strengthen regional capacities, promote food sovereignty, and ensure the country's long-term sustainability.
