Full textEnvironmental sustainability is an extension of the concept of sustainability that focuses on the importance of understanding the interconnectivity between natural and socio-economic systems without compromising resource capacity. In this study, it is incorporated into a framework that applies to the sustainable development of small counties in the South Texas region of the Eagle Ford Shale.
The research involved a qualitative approach through the distribution of a questionnaire to a surveyed sample of Texas residents from Gonzales and Karnes counties. The purpose of the questionnaire was to obtain the expressed perspectives of residents regarding the impacts of shale development on their quality of life. These locations of interest were selected because of the different levels of shale development they experienced. Aspects of quality of life were analyzed as indicators of the survey responses to open and closed-ended questions. Participants described and scaled variables regarding impacts, benefits, and notable changes they experienced from the development of shale resources in their counties. Content analysis was used to obtain results relevant to developing the conceptual model for environmental sustainability proposed in this study. Findings showed that the sample of participating residents highly identified with socio-economic interests compared to environmental interests, considering that when the study was conducted shale oil and gas production was in decline as a result of fallen global energy prices.
In this study the terms sustainability and sustainable development were used interchangeably, while development was addressed in a broad sense, referring to the overall improvement of quality of life.

Full textDevelopment thinking in the 21st century has embraced the challenge to inform development practice towards managing the relationship between the macro and micro level of development, 
with an emphasis on people-centred development (PCD) and a participatory development approach (PDA). People-centred development advocates a process focused on people, which 
enables beneficiaries of communitydevelopment initiatives to empower themselves through participation. People-centred development has been universally accepted in the development 
community as the only viable option, with the potential to reverse decades of top-down approaches to development through the engagement of community stakeholders in a meaningful participation process. The social development scene in South Africa is characterised by a strong presence of the civil society in general and non-governmental organisations (NGOs) in 
particular, which are major role players in socio-economic development at the grassroots. Most of these organisations are committed to participatory development methodologies in order to 
meet the needs of povertystricken communities in South Africa. This thesis critically assessed participatory development in the Small Business Development Departments&rsquo
(SBDD) 
programmes/projects at the Elgin Learning Foundation, in the Overberg district of the Western Cape. A qualitative research methodology was applied throughout the study. This research 
approach was chosen 
because the purpose of this project was to understand and describe community participation at the SBDD from an insider&rsquo
s perspective, and not to predict social action 
or make generalisations about it. Accordingly, observation, in-depth interviews, documentary analysis, and focus-group discussions were utilised for data collection. The study also used 
secondary sources of information, namely policy briefs, project proposals, annual evaluation reports, and minutes of meetings. The findings indicate that the community-development activities 
of the SBDD are very visible in the Overberg region, and that the organisation maintains good relationships with community stakeholders. In addition, the department contributes significantly towards entrepreneurship and skills development in the 
community, through its training and mentorship programmes. However, results also suggest that community-development at the SBDD is not always people-centred because training 
programmes are largely externally designed, monitored and evaluated, without taking into consideration the felt needs of the people. Participation that is perceived as a means to an end, rather than an end in itself can be described as tokenistic. In this light, the study recommends that the SBDD develops context-specific strategies to implement participatory methodologies at all stages 
of project-cycle management, in order to provide an enabling environment for the genuine participation of people at the grassroots. This approach can empower community members and build 
local institutional capacities to ensure project/programme sustainability in the long term.

Full textAs aÃÃes pÃblicas devem atuar no processo de desenvolvimento social e econÃmico de forma a fazer desse um processo mais simÃtrico. PorÃm, em regiÃes pobres, polÃticas mal elaboradas tendem a aprofundar o modelo de exclusÃo social. Nesse contexto, o presente estudo tem como objetivo analisar os impactos gerados pelas tecnologias sociais de gestÃo hÃdrica sobre a sustentabilidade do pequeno agricultor no semiÃrido cearense. Essas tecnologias sociais de gestÃo hÃdrica tÃm por finalidade oferecer alternativas para captaÃÃo, armazenamento e aproveitamento da Ãgua da chuva tanto para o consumo humano como tambÃm para a utilizaÃÃo na atividade agrÃcola atravÃs da construÃÃo de cisternas, permitindo assim melhorar a convivÃncia com os efeitos das secas. Para atingir objetivo do estudo, foi realizado um levantamento de dados primÃrios, com a aplicaÃÃo de 150 questionÃrios entre beneficiÃrios e nÃo beneficiÃrios do programa, nos municÃpios de CariÃs e Saboeiro. A anÃlise do impacto das tecnologias sociais se deu por meio da construÃÃo de Ãndices com dados nÃo pareados e a aplicaÃÃo do modelo Propensity Score Matching, que tem como objetivo o pareamento dos dados. O estudo apontou, tanto na forma pareada como nÃo pareada, que as tecnologias sociais de gestÃo hÃdrica estÃo gerando um impacto positivo na sustentabilidade de seus beneficiÃrios no semiÃrido cearense, de uma forma geral, eles tÃo tendo a possibilidade de gerar renda agrÃcola mesmo no perÃodo da estiagem voltando essa produÃÃo para o sentido orgÃnico e diminuindo a agressÃo ao meio ambiente.
Lopes, Ivana Maria de Lima. "Empreendedorismo e desenvolvimento sustentável nas pequenas e médias empresas industriais do município de Lagarto SE." Universidade Federal de Sergipe, 2005. https://ri.ufs.br/handle/riufs/4099.
Full textEstudos sobre o empreendedorismo começaram a ser discutido abertamente a partir dos economistas neoclássicos e foram sendo disseminados pelo mundo. Hoje, a pratica do empreendedorismo representa, em alguns paises, a metade de toda a economia considerando a geração de empregos, exportações e aumento no PIB. Processo de entrepreneurship, enquanto fenômeno de surgimento de novos empreendedores e novos negócios é um desafio para os organismos de intervenção, tanto governamentais como empresarias ou de demais setores ligados à ações de desenvolvimento. O objetivo deste estudo é Identificar e analisar as características empreendedoras dos empresários do município de Lagarto com vistas a propor ações para o desenvolvimento de tais características. Especificamente pretendeu: identificar o perfil dos empresários do município de Lagarto SE; identificar as características de empreendedores existentes nos empresários da região; identificar fatores positivos e negativos existentes na condução dos negócios, segundo os empresários; verificar a existência de políticas de incentivos desenvolvidas pelos órgãos públicos na esfera estadual e municipal para a criação e desenvolvimento econômico das pequenas e médias empresas em Lagarto; apresentar ações para o desenvolvimento das características do empreendedor nos empresários das pequenas e médias empresas da cidade de Lagarto. Trata-se de uma pesquisa descritivo-exploratoria, cujo método de coleta de dados foi o levantamento através de entrevistas com questionário com perguntas abertas e fechadas onde se pretendia medir as características empreendedoras dos empresários do município através de alguns comportamentos e os fatores necessários para o desenvolvimento dessas características empreendedoras nesses empresários. Pôde-se constatar que os empresários do município apesar de não terem a consciência da importância de se trabalhar com metas e objetivos claramente definidos e por escrito, possuem uma visão de futuro de estar sempre entre os melhores, assumem riscos calculados, procuram ser mais ágeis que seus concorrentes, porém preferem enxergar as situações de forma realista, não procurando por novas possibilidades quando se deparam com problemas. Constatou-se com a realização da pesquisa que os empresários do município de Lagarto possuem características de empreendedores. Existe ainda a necessidade de que estas características sejam trabalhadas para que possam ajudar de forma efetiva estes empresários a desenvolver seus negócios, características que poderiam vir a ser desenvolvida com a obtenção de novos conhecimentos por parte dos mesmos. Acredita-se que os programas desenvolvidos pelo SEBRAE, SENAI/IEL, CIEE e a SEIC em parceria com o CEFET/SE (Unidade Descentralizada em Lagarto) muito poderão contribuir com atividades que dêem suporte para alavancar a situação econômica do município, pois os empresários da região poderá sobreviver de maneira sustentável quanto a estas políticas de iniciativas governamentais possam atingir a todos que delas se beneficiem.
