urban sustainability  

Definición

  • As a concept and a field of study, urban sustainability emerged out of the sustainable development movement that took off in 1987 with the publication of the Brundtland report, Our Common Future. Via the Brundtland report and the subsequent 1992 United Nations Conference on Environment and Development (Earth Summit), held in Rio de Janeiro, sustainable development brought together the international priorities of poverty alleviation and environmental conservation, creating an agenda for simultaneous improvement in both situations worldwide.
