ESP: “Es importante crear y mantener estructuras y procesos en las comunidades que permitan las toma de decisiones justas, eficaces y transparentes. En ese medida, se asegura un proceso autónomo y consolidado ante las desigualdades sociales y propuestas para el bienestar colectivo y el desarrollo sostenible. Con un enfoque de derechos y de género.”
ENG: “It is important to create and maintain structures and processes in the communities that allow for fair, effective and transparent decision-making.
