Argentina has a great wealth and diversity of natural resources. Accompanied by scientific, productive and distributive policies, they can be the lever for the country’s development. Encouraging 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, in coordination with private actors and the scientific-technological system, is needed. Regulation is fundamental: the exploitation of natural resources can damage the environment and harm people’s health. It is essential to improve the governance of natural resources.
What does this mean? Taking advantage of the great diversity offered by the country to promote each region together with the local communities, promoting the distribution of income with a federal criterion. On this path, planning, control 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 value and regulate the use of resources, care for 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.
