El proceso político de las iniciativas legislativas climáticas en el Perú: la tortuosa travesía de la Ley Marco sobre Cambio Climático (2008-2018)
(Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú. Instituto de Ciencias de la Naturaleza, Territorio y Energías Renovables (INTE-PUCP), 2022-05-25) Bravo Alarcón, Fernando
This article seeks to contradict the assumption that environmental and climate issues are subordinated to the economic growth agenda in public policy and legislative decisions. On the contrary, it proposes that certain political conditions and extraordinary events might be coordinated in such a way as to successfully drive environmental and climate initiatives into public debate, which, far from being seen as residual issues that can be postponed without major political costs, eventually manage to overcome the hurdle of economic objections and ideological misgivings. To support this argument, we analyze the complex political process that Law 30754, Framework Law on Climate Change, has faced since even as early as 2008, with the first bills, until its approval in the Congress of the Republic in 2018 and its subsequent enactment by the Executive Branch.

Reforestación del bosque seco para la prevención de desbordes fluviales en el Perú: el caso del distrito de Íllimo, provincia y región Lambayeque (2018-2019)
(Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú. Instituto de Ciencias de la Naturaleza, Territorio y Energías Renovables (INTE-PUCP), 2022-05-26) Nuñez Gamboa, Luis Johan
This research aims at providing an analysis of the possibilities of reforestation to prevent river overflow. It studies La Leche River, in the stretch or low course located in the Íllimo district, Lambayeque region (Peru). In addition, it provides preliminary information on the conservation status of forest species in the seasonally dry forest, and the threat of flooding due to river overflows, which occurs each year due to heavy rain. In this context, information was collected and processed to identify forest species in the study area and to then select those that -due to their anatomical structure- have more water absorption capacity, in order to mitigate adverse effects that come up when the river overflows.

Pueblos indígenas y COVID-19 en el Perú: la crisis sanitaria y las deficiencias estructurales
(Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú. Instituto de Ciencias de la Naturaleza, Territorio y Energías Renovables (INTE-PUCP), 2022-05-25) Orcotorio Figueroa, Rodrigo Walter
The COVID-19 pandemic is an event of large and complex proportions. The Peruvian government tried for countless times to deal with its consequences during the first year of the crisis. However, due to the social and economic conditions of most of the population, these attempts turned out to be unsuccessful and in specific cases only exacerbated the effects of the pandemic. In that regard, native communities, and generally indigenous peoples, suffered from structural public service lacks in terms of access to drinking water and health that COVID-19 oversaw revealing. Belated responses of the central government and preferences for economic reactivation revealed a serious contradiction between priorities in managing the crisis in the Amazonian territories. This paper addresses these structural conditions referred to public services, especially those related to access to drinking water and health in native communities. It additionally analyzes legislative and administrative measures implemented to protect native communities and strengthen their capacities against COVID-19. All this leads to an inquiry on the real flaws and deficiencies of the national proposal for economic reactivation and the problem experienced by these communities in the first year of the crisis.

Biodiversidad y áreas naturales protegidas en la Evaluación de Impacto Ambiental: avances y temas pendientes
(Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú. Instituto de Ciencias de la Naturaleza, Territorio y Energías Renovables (INTE-PUCP), 2022-05-25) Aldana Durán, Martha Inés
This article analyzes biodiversity within the environmental impact assessment process, with special emphasis on its application in Protected Areas (PA). Additionally, it introduces the applicable international standards on the subject and reviews the applicable Peruvian national regulations. A sample of evaluation reports done by the National Service of Natural Protected Areas (SERNANP) which is the governing authority in the field of PA, is presented in order to identify the existing regulatory needs in this matter with a view to proposing the development of required objective criteria.

Análisis crítico del uso de macroinvertebrados bentónicos como bioindicadores de la calidad del agua en el Sistema Nacional de Gestión Ambiental
(Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú. Instituto de Ciencias de la Naturaleza, Territorio y Energías Renovables (INTE-PUCP), 2022-05-26) Lazo Oscanoa, Carlos Alberto; Piscoya Torres, José Alfredo; Roa Changana, Piero Jose
Due to the worrisome water context at domestic and global level, it is imperative to establish actions for protecting and conserving aquatic ecosystems and water resources in Peru, such as establishing a comprehensive assessment of water quality. In this context, bio indicators, especially benthic macroinvertebrates, represent an important tool for efficient water assessment. This essay analyzes how the use of these bio indicators is being managed at international level and within the framework of the National Environmental Management System (SNGA) of Peru, with special emphasis on the National Water Resources Management System (SNGRH), since one of its objectives is to achieve an adequate management of water resources in the country, to contribute to the conservation, preservation and recovery of water and its associated goods, and to have the conservation and protection of water quality as one of its purposes. In this way, it was evident that these bio indicators are being considered in some of the SNGA management instruments. However, in some of these, their use is not very developed or is limited because they do not have a strong legal basis, since they have not yet been incorporated in the regulatory framework of water resources and, therefore, in the protocols that address their use.
