Argentina has a great wealth and diversity of natural resources. Accompanied by scientific, productive and distributive policies, can be the lever for the country’s development. Promoting innovation based on natural resources can contribute to diversifying the productive matrix and exporting knowledge-intensive products.
To achieve this, a strategy led by the public sector is needed, in coordination with private actors and the scientific-technological system. Regulation is fundamental: the exploitation of natural resources can damage the environment and harm people’s health. Improving the governance of natural resources is key. What does this mean?
This means taking advantage of the great diversity that the country offers to empower each region together with local communities, boosting the distribution of rents with a federal criterion. On this path, planning, monitoring and technology development can contribute to this process while helping to care for the environment and mitigate climate change.
We work to improve the governance of natural resources, how? We propose policies to give value and regulate the use of resources, the care of the environment, the distribution of benefits and the articulation between the different actors.
Natural resources can be the engine of innovation that Argentina needs to grow and develop.
