Environmental Impact Assessment of Agricultural Greenhouse Systems in a Natural Heritage Site
Sustainable agricultural development in natural heritage sites poses a challenge, requiring food security without compromising the conservation of ecosystems and their outstanding universal values (OUV). The Galapagos Islands, recognized as a Natural World Heritage, have problems of scarce water and arable land, compounded by anthropogenic pressures such as high population and tourism growth and dependence on food imports. The objective of this r…
An integrated bibliometric and systematic review of governance responses to illegal gold mining in the Amazon Basin
An institutional framework for education for sustainable development through service-learning in universities
Purpose Higher education institutions play a pivotal role in achieving sustainable development goals. The purpose of this study is to present an institutional framework for education for sustainable development through service-learning at ESPOL Polytechnic University in Guayaquil, Ecuador. Design/methodology/approach A mixed-methods approach was used, combining documentary analysis, a preliminary survey and two focus groups involving 15 professor…
Sustainable development through service learning and community engagement in higher education
Purpose This study aims to delve into the evolution, trends and implications of scientific production related to service learning (SL) and community engagement for sustainability in higher education institutions (HEIs). Because HEIs play a crucial role in achieving the sustainable development goals (SDGs), experiential learning approaches are needed to actively involve students in sustainable development. Design/methodology/approach In total, 869…
Water Sowing and Harvesting (WS&H) for Sustainable Management in Ecuador
Water Sowing and Harvesting (WS&H) is an ancestral knowledge widely used as a sustainable technique in water management. This study aims to analyse the importance, promotion, and cultural heritage of WS&H techniques through a literature review in Ecuador, considering applications of ancestral techniques by region (coastal, Andean and insular) with a strengths, opportunities, weaknesses, and threats (SWOTs) analysis and a focus group for a strateg…
Application of Geomechanical Classification Systems in a Tourist Mine for Establishing Strategies within 3G’s Model
Stability problems in rock masses are one of the main causes of subsidence events in underground mining areas. Zaruma, in the South of Ecuador, is characterised by mineral wealth, in which 65% of the population depends directly on artisanal mining activity. However, mineral extraction, without technical considerations and in many cases illegal, has negatively impacted the stability of tunnels generated under the city’s urban area, reporting subsi…
Geo-Environmental Assessment of Tourist Development and Its Impact on Sustainability
The evaluation of geosites is an essential part of conserving the geodiversity and biodiversity of an ecosystem, as well as safeguarding the cultural, geological, environmental, and landscape wealth that a highly recognized geographical area possesses. In this context, Guayaquil, the pearl of the Pacific, is a city that registers, in its history and evolution, a binding relationship with the geo-biodiversity of the geosites that characterize it. …
Geodiversity assessment to regional scale
Geodiversity is the variety of earth materials, forms and processes that constitute and shape the Earth planet. Therefore, geodiversity includes essential for developing nature-based solutions and must be adequately characterised. This research aims to evaluate the geodiversity of Mainland Ecuador by estimating a Geodiversity Index, which is the sum of five partial indexes (Lithological, Geomorphological, Paleontological, Pedological, and Mineral…
Evaluation of a Paleontological Museum as Geosite and Base for Geotourism. A Case Study
The Santa Elena province in Ecuador has outstanding geological potential in petroleum, mining and geosite resources. All the wealth of palaeontological samples and their inherent link to the history of this territory require a recognised museum with educational and scientific material to support the potential and promotion of geotourism development. The Megatherium Palaeontological Museum is located in this province and was the first Palaeontolog…
