Resumen
Resumen. Las ciudades concentran porcentajes elevado de la población humana. Estas han sido moldeadas por procesos de urbanización y desarrollo, que han conllevado a impactos positivos y negativos, desde nivel local hasta global. Este documento tiene como finalidad describir los aspectos que implica la sostenibilidad en las ciudades, para la comprensión de los retos y perspectivas en Costa Rica. Las ciudades costarricenses presentan rezagos importantes en materia de sostenibilidad. Estos incluyen el desarrollo de un enfoque amplio e integral, para abarcar y buscar la sostenibilidad del Gran Área Metropolitana. Para encaminar las ciudades del país hacia la sostenibilidad, es necesario dejar la visión cortoplacista y promover soluciones integradoras, innovadoras y que se ajusten a las necesidades país.
Abstract. Cities concentrate high percentages of the human population. They have been shaped by processes of urbanization and development, which have led to impacts, both positive and negative, at local, regional and global levels. The aim of this document is to describe the aspects that sustainability in cities implies, in order to understand the challenges and perspectives in Costa Rica. Costa Rican cities are lagging behind in terms of sustainability. These include the development of a broad and integrated approach, to encompass and seek sustainability for the Greater Metropolitan Area. In order to guide the country's cities towards sustainability, it is necessary to leave behind the short-sighted and individualistic vision, to promote integrated and innovative solutions that meet the country's needs.
