REYES GUILLEN, Flor Ivett; FONSECA CORDOBA, Socorro y MUNOZ ALONSO REYES, Bárbara. Analysis of perceptions regarding environmental deterioration and sustainable development: An unequal management of information. LiminaR [online]. 2022, vol.20, n.2, e925. Epub 18-Nov-2022.

This article discusses the results of a study carried out in San Cristobal de Las Casas, Chiapas, Mexico, with the aim of analyzing the perceptions of the population regarding environmental deterioration and the concept of sustainable development. This was an interdisciplinary study based on the analysis of perceptions as a data source. The main findings are 1) people detect environmental changes, but consider them necessary for development; 2) they define sustainable development as “environmental care,” undertaken as part of a government program, or as a way of having a job to ensure family wellbeing. Concept building plays an important role in measuring the impact that environmental actions have had; yet perceptions of “sustainable development” currently held by individuals who were interviewed have no impact on the development of environmental programs or their evaluation.
