Formulación de un manual de tecnologías apropiadas para su incorporación en el marco del macroproyecto plan maestro socioambiental Ecobarrio La Esmeralda (PMSAE)

Abstract

In the context of the Macroproject Master Plan for the Socio-Environmental Ecobarrio La Esmeralda (PMSAE), this document aims to develop a manual of appropriate technologies. The purpose is to guide the dynamics related to the relevance and subsequent implementation of these technologies in the experimental unit of Ecobarrio La Esmeralda, considering techniques and communication methods that are easily accessible and compatible with the digital tools available in everyday life. To achieve the goal of this monograph, we investigated the conditions of the study area, identifying appropriate technologies already integrated into the experimental unit of Ecobarrio and suggesting additional technologies based on criteria such as feasibility, complexity, adaptability, cost, maintenance, and lifespan, as well as the specific characteristics of the study area. This manual provides technical and technological information that is clear and accessible to the residents and visitors of Ecobarrio La Esmeralda. It also serves as a starting point to encourage and support other communities undergoing sustainable transformation who wish to adopt the vision proposed by the Ecobarrio framework, improving environmental relationships and conditions, reducing impact on the natural environment, and making the most of the resources offered by the surrounding area.
