Abstract

Sustainable development constitutes the new paradigm where which the actions of public institutions, international organisms and non-governmental organizations, are based. It has shown that the strategies aimed at restraining environmental deterioration failed, when no consideration was given to social, cultural, political and economic aspects. It has also revealed that isolated environmental policies have been unable to influence problems such as extreme poverty, lack of access to resources, social injustice and the countless forms of inequity; in other words, they have been unable to make an efficient improvement on the population's quality of life. Over the past few years, as a result of various summits and international agreements, including political willpower on the part of some governments and efforts made by the civil society, some progress has been achieved in terms of mainstreaming gender equity into sustainable development programs and projects.
