    Estrategia de gestión ambiental para la conservación de zonas potenciales de recarga de acuíferos en la vereda Barandillas, Zipaquirá / Environmental Management Strategy for the Conservation of Potential Aquifer Recharge Zones in Barandillas, Zipaquirá
    Méndez Bernal Mayury Yuelimi; Laura Carolina Díaz Ospina
    The present study formulated an environmental management strategy for the conservation of potential aquifer recharge zones in the Barandillas village, municipality of Zipaquirá, Cundinamarca. The study was developed using secondary information, thematic cartography, and spatial analysis in Geographic Information Systems. The identification of potential recharge zones was carried out based on the methodology adopted by Resolution 0017 of 2026 and the Methodological Guide for the Identification of Potential Aquifer Recharge Zones, integrating variables such as lithology, land cover, soils, faults, lineament density, drainage density, connectivity, and the Topographic Wetness Index (MinAmbiente et al., 2025). The criteria were normalized on a scale from 0 to 1 and weighted through the combination of the CRITIC and AHP methods. The final index presented values between 0.0638 and 0.7371; therefore, very low, low, medium, and high potential recharge categories were identified, with no presence of the very high category. Subsequently, the anthropogenic activities present in the area were analyzed, and their potential impacts were assessed using the Arboleda matrix (2008). The results made it possible to prioritize impacts associated with impermeabilization, soil compaction, vegetation cover degradation, diffuse pollution, and alteration of infiltration processes. Finally, management, conservation, restoration, and environmental monitoring guidelines were proposed to protect the areas with the highest recharge potential and the greatest anthropogenic pressure.

    Planteamiento de una estrategia integral de sostenibilidad para la gestión de residuos sólidos en zonas rurales: caso del corregimiento Cruces en el municipio de Dabeiba – Antioquia
    Yeny Paola Hernández Pineda; Laura Carolina Díaz Ospina
    This research describes the problem of the current management of solid waste in the Cruces district of the municipality of Dabeiba – Antioquia, where the local government does not provide waste collection services. As a result, residents have adopted various disposal practices, with open burning being the most prevalent. The overall objective was to design a comprehensive sustainability strategy to strengthen solid waste management, based on a diagnosis of current practices and the environmental, social and economic factors in the rural context. The methodology employed a mixed-methods approach, using techniques such as direct observation, surveys administered to households in the district, and a participatory workshop with students from the local educational institution. The results revealed a lack of knowledge about proper waste management, the presence of environmentally unsound practices, and a high level of community willingness to participate in collective solutions. Based on these findings, a strategy was proposed that focuses on environmental education, the participation of various stakeholders, and the promotion of sustainability and circular economy principles. It is concluded that strengthening solid waste management requires not only technical solutions, but also sustained educational and participatory processes that transform behaviors and promote community actions tailored to the district.
