Contenido principal del artículo
Resumen
La calidad de la medición de la vulnerabilidad ambiental, económica y social ante fenómenos naturales adversos y ante el cambio climático es primordial para un diagnóstico, con un enfoque integral, de los riesgos e impactos que permita el desarrollo de estrategias de desarrollo sostenible eficientes y adaptadas a las características socioespaciales del territorio en el que se implementen. Sin embargo, los estudios científicos de vulnerabilidad de estos fenómenos ambientales están siendo desarrollados principalmente por áreas de investigación relacionadas con las ciencias físicas y naturales, ocupando las ciencias sociales una clara posición de desventaja en este ámbito. Los resultados muestran cómo esta infrarrepresentación de las ciencias sociales está favoreciendo evaluaciones de vulnerabilidad sesgados, con sistemas de indicadores incompletos, que ponen en riesgo un diagnóstico correcto de la situación de vulnerabilidad social, lo que puede derivar en políticas y estrategias de sostenibilidad que no se ajusten a las necesidades los territorios que sufren las consecuencias no deseadas de estos fenómenos y que afectan, con especial virulencia, a la población con mayor índice de vulnerabilidad social.
