ODS. las voces de la universidad y la empresa

Abstract

El 25 de septiembre del 2015, la Asamblea General de la ONU adoptó la Agenda 2030 para el Desarrollo Sostenible, un plan de acción a favor de las personas, el planeta y la prosperidad. La Agenda planteó 17 Objetivos con 169 metas de carácter integrado e indivisible que abarcaban las esferas económica, social y ambiental, y que regiría los programas de desarrollo mundiales durante los próximos quince años. Siete años después, y tras el parón imprevisto y devastador que ha supuesto la pandemia del Covid-19 en muchos sentidos, este libro ofrece un magnífico crisol de reflexiones de investigadores, profesores universitarios, empresarios y otros profesionales que, cada uno desde su perspectiva, analizan los retos y oportunidades actuales de este gran proyecto de transformación global. Es nuestro deber emerger de la reciente crisis acelerando el avance hacia la consecución de los ODS. Las experiencias del último año y medio, a menudo adquiridas con gran dolor, pero también dotadas de un enorme calado, deben llevarnos a repensar nuestro modo de actuar, pues no debemos olvidar que la Agenda 2030 implica, ante todo, un cambio radical en los modelos socioeconómicos previos a la irrupción del Covid-19. Pero, como se menciona en este libro, no se trata únicamente de intentar hacer las cosas bien, sino de hacerlas «conscientemente bien», es decir, enfocando nuestras acciones hacia el cumplimiento de los objetivos marcados. Y, para poder contribuir a esta gran tarea colectiva, los objetivos de cada agente, ya sean individuos, empresas o administraciones, deben ser lo suficientemente ambiciosos, pero a la vez reales y concretos. El lector descubrirá en los artículos que componen esta obra nuevas ideas para la acción coordinada de individuos, empresas y Administraciones para el impulso de la Agenda 2030 y, con ella, de una nueva forma de progreso más ética y sostenible en beneficio del conjunto de la sociedad.
