Aplicación de indicadores para establecer niveles de sostenibilidad barrial en tres barrios en el municipio de Rionegro, Antioquia.

Abstract

The processes of urbanization and consolidation of urban structures generate constant pressure on environmental support systems, which threaten to make the city an unsustainable system. This situation highlights the need for cities to adopt levels of efficiency where resource consumption is reduced and organized information increases, which implies the incorporation of a compact and complex city model, efficient in resource consumption and socially stable. , (Rueda 2010) this is the approach taken by the Barcelona Urban Ecology Agency. This research aims to generate a practical contribution to the understanding of the territory from the neighborhood scale through the calculation of 7 urban sustainability indicators proposed by the Barcelona Ecological Agency that allow an interpretation of the current situation of urban sustainability at the neighborhood level in certain areas of the municipality of Rionegro, Antioquia, with the intention of generating knowledge that facilitates better understanding and contributes to achieving a balance and guaranteeing the durability of the city system.
