“…El ODS 16 se podría considerar como uno de los más relevantes ya que debe existir una sinergia entre las instituciones para poder lograr los demás (Yarnall et al, 2021), al respecto, la UAEMex en los tres documentos analizados toma en cuenta a la comunidad universitaria y a la población para cumplir con estrategias específicas como en la Ley UAEMex y el Estatuto que consideran las oportunidades laborales y estudiantiles que puede otorgar la UAEMex, y en el PRDI, se contemplan las acciones realizadas en favor de la comunidad. Y finalmente, el ODS17 enfatiza la alianza mundial para cumplir con la sustentabilidad (UNESCO, 2017), al respecto el PRDI contempla acciones de manera regional e internacional, la Ley y Estatuto UAEMex solo consideran el trabajo en equipo de la comunidad universitaria; como lo entrevé Jonas (2000) a nivel colectivo, en el que se asegura el bien común y el de la naturaleza, esta última no considerada como un objeto sino como parte de un ser humano ético y crítico (Gavilanes y Tipán, 2021), a través de un principio de responsabilidad (Jonas, 1995).…”

Adicción a las TIC La tecnología ha ganado cada vez más espacio en la sociedad actual por las utilidades que trae su uso a distintos ámbitos de la cotidianidad, sin ser la educación la excepción. Sin embargo, si dicho uso es excesivo y poco responsable, puede generar problemas en la salud como sucede en el caso de las adicciones. En ese sentido, es pertinente analizar las implicaciones y respuestas que la adicción a las tecnologías tiene en las instituciones educativas, principalmente en adolescentes y jóvenes.

Environmental sciences play a central role in a wide array of fronts, encompassing research and innovation in areas that include natural resource management, environmental impact assessment, biodiversity conservation, adoption of precision agriculture practices, effective agricultural waste management, and adaptation to climate change. Furthermore, these areas are pivotal in promoting environmental education, aiming to disseminate sustainable practices effectively. Given the collaboration among different experts, environmental sciences, due to their interdisciplinary nature, take a leading role in mitigating adverse environmental impacts caused by human activities, becoming essential for the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

“…Peace engineering is very important to national security, particularly concerning the sustainable management of scarce resources in terms of public health, water and energy [5]. To promote sustainable development, China carried out the guideline of "coexistence between energy development and eco-safety" and focused on promoting cleaner and renewable energy sources.…”

“…In such instances, large amounts of funding in the form of aid may not make those regions' societies more stable and prosperous but rather lead to corruption and further conflict, thereby stifling development [2,3]. Instead, "peace engineering", i.e., reducing and eliminating conflictinduced violence through the use of innovative research, technology, policy, systems-level thinking and design [4], can provide a clear pathway to address sustainable development by incorporating conflict and peace outcomes into business practices, project design and implementation [5]. However, peace engineering is an emerging discipline and a framework for understanding it is needed.…”

Peace Engineering in Practice: China’s Energy Diplomacy Strategy and Its Global Implications

et al. 2023

As the world’s largest energy importer, consumer and with the second-largest economy, China is heavily dependent on fossil fuels. Massive energy imports make China a major stakeholder in the world energy trade, with significant implications and repercussions on the global economy. The desire to be energy independent and the environmental impact of fossil fuels is prompting China to diversify its energy supply, adapt its domestic energy infrastructure, and deploy renewable energy technologies on an unprecedented scale. Intending to position itself internationally, China has developed an energy diplomacy strategy while formulating international relations policies. In particular, the government emphasizes sustainable development through the large-scale deployment of renewable energy technologies, which will help build Western China while simultaneously reducing pollution across the country, elevating China to a position of global leadership in the energy sector. Intellectual property and technological capabilities developed in China can be exported worldwide, including in the regions where the population has limited or no access to energy. In addition, this strategy will have worldwide implications as it will directly or indirectly help achieve several Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), including clean energy, education, eradicating poverty, climate action and sustainable cities and communities. On this basis, we anticipate that China’s energy policies may have long-lasting prospects for global peace, thus constituting an interesting and relevant case study for the emerging concept of “peace engineering.”
