Presentation

We are renowned researchers in generating scientific evidence aimed at creating innovative sustainable development models. We have experience in studies that integrate economic, social, environmental and technological factors, the purpose of which has been to generate socially fair and ecologically balanced development processes. We defend inter- and intra- generational equity, which requires directing investment and scientific and technological progress towards meeting the needs of different human groups in the present, without compromising the possibility of future generations to meet theirs.
