Ítem Análisis de la contribución de las empresas mineras con operación en Colombia a la biodiversidad(Universidad EAFIT, 2025) Giraldo Posada, Ana Margarita; Correa Carmona, María Nathalia; Orjuela Hidalgo, Ana María; Ramírez Soto, Juan DavidThe legal mining sector in Colombia has both direct and indirect impacts on the areas where it operates. Mining companies have developed and implemented various programs focused on biodiversity conservation and preservation; however, these initiatives have not been effectively communicated to stakeholders, limiting recognition of their positive environmental impacts and contributions to ecosystems. Therefore, this study aims to analyze the contribution of mining companies operating in Colombia to biodiversity. To achieve this, a review of the sustainability reports of 11 mining companies operating in Colombia, published over a five-year period (2019–2023), was conducted. This review incorporated international biodiversity standards and the TSM Sustainable Mining Standard adapted for Colombia. Based on the findings, a methodological tool was designed and applied to five companies in the sample. It was then presented through interviews with environmental authorities and industry experts to gather their perspectives on its relevance. The results of this study reveal that mining companies in Colombia undertake actions that not only align with the targets of SDG 15 but also contribute to other SDGs. However, despite their positive impact on biodiversity, these efforts are not adequately visible or communicated. Therefore, it is crucial to ensure that biodiversity-related actions are disclosed to all stakeholders through accessible channels, such as management and sustainability reports, so that the sector's efforts and contributions are properly recognized.Ítem Responsible patterns of production and consumption: The race for the achievement of SDGs in emerging markets(Universidad EAFIT, 2021-06-30) Gómez-Trujilllo Ana María; Velez-Ocampo, Juan; Castrillón-Orrego, Sergio A.; Alvarez-Vanegas, Alejandro; Manotas, Eva Cristina; CEIPA Bussiness Center; Universidad de Antioquia; Universidad EAFIT; Universidad EAFIT; Universidad Nacional de Colombia sede MedellínSince the end of the 20th century, the role of private multinational enterprises (MNEs) has been recognized as critical in implementing increased sustainable production and consumption atterns. Particularly after the creation of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and the Agenda 2030, this role has increased. In this sense, this paper aims to analyze the measures and actions taken by companies in their contribution to the achievement of the SDG 12. Through the identification of more than 52 metrics in sustainability reports of 854 firms, findings suggest that direct greenhouse gas emissions and indirect greenhouse gas emissions are the most often reported corporate metrics to measure their impact on specific SDGs. This reveals the importance of sustainability actions in emerging market firms as a mechanism to gain legitimacy when operating in foreign markets and as an opportunity to create more sustainable production models.Ítem The SDGs as an Operational Framework for Post COVID-19 Response and Recovery(Universidad EAFIT, 2021-07-18) Mohieldin, Mahmoud; Shehata, Miral; Cairo University, Gamaet El Qahera St.; University of ChicagoDespite progress on a number of goals, the world was not moving fast enough towards achieving the Sustainable Development Goals in the pre-COVID era. The Decade of Action started with the hit of the COVID-19 crisis, which stressed the urgent need to tackl
