Propuesta de mejoramiento del proyecto ambiental escolar, articulada con la ntc iso 14001:2015 y el decreto 1743 de 1994, para el colegio jordán de sajonia.

Abstract

The management of environmental aspects has never been so important for sustainable development and education has never been so necessary to achieve it. Environmental management strategies seek to reduce, as much as is reasonably possible, environmental impacts through the management of properly identified, characterized, valued and prioritized aspects. This simple concept seems to get lost in the work as individuals, as families, as a community and as a society. Education then turns out to be the bridge that unites the ideals contained in the concepts, with the skills to achieve the results.

Under this paradigm, the proposal to improve the School Environmental Project for Colegio Jordán de Sajonia was developed, an inclusive project that will comply with current national legislation but which in turn will leverage environmental management strategies immersed in an internationally recognized model, the NTC - ISO 14001: 2015. This was achieved through the diagnosis of the environmental management of the institution based on Decree 1743 of 1994 and the NTC - ISO 14001: 2015; the identification of the inflection points of these two norms and the structuring of a procedure for the diagnosis, planning, implementation and improvement of environmental performance, based on this diagnosis; This procedure was validated by interested parties in institutional environmental management, among which people with environmental competencies were considered, due to education, training and experience.

In consideration of the evolution of environmental problems at a global, regional, national and local level; the development of strict policies and legislation; institutional values ​​and objectives, the proposal to improve the School Environmental Project was structured, for the educational institution Colegio Jordán de Sajonia, within the framework of the Master's degree project in quality and integral management of the Santo Tomás University - Icontec agreement . Which will represent a contribution to the management of legal, environmental, reputational and economic risks of the educational institution, as well as to the balance between the environment, society and the economy to satisfy present needs, without jeopardizing the capacities of future generations .
