Evaluación de la implementación de la estrategia nacional de cambio climático en la gestión del riesgo climático en la provincia de Santo Domingo de los Tsáchilas 2016-2024

Abstract

Abstract: Climate change is one of the most difficult challenges to address in the formulation and implementation of public risk management policies. In the province of Santo Domingo de los Tsáchilas, this phenomenon has triggered an increase in the intensity of climatic events, resulting in adverse effects on ecological, economic, and social systems. Faced with this reality, the State has developed a series of regulations and strategies, among which the National Climate Change Strategy (ENCC) stands out, to guide institutional action at all levels of government. However, the effectiveness of the strategy is uncertain in each province, particularly in the most vulnerable areas, such as Santo Domingo de los Tsáchilas. Therefore, this research analyzes how the National Climate Change Strategy (ENCC) has been implemented specifically in Santo Domingo de los Tsáchilas, taking into account its socio-territorial nature, as well as the technical and financial resources available. This detailed study made it possible to verify whether the approaches at the national and local levels are aligned.
