El rol de la ingeniería y de la investigación en ingeniería en el proceso de licenciamiento ambiental: una perspectiva desde la sociedad civil 1

Abstract

In this article, we shed light of civil society's perception of environmental licensing in Colombia. We believe it is important to consider environmental impact assessment as an integral part of a process that adds value to a project. For this reason, we discuss some key principles and discuss the problems that arise. Finally, from an engineering perspective, we propose some solutions to make environmental licensing more effective. (English) [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
