Quebrada Doña María : de amenaza a sujeto de derechos
In an era marked by climate change, disaster risk prevention and mitigation has been gaining strenght, especially since the last decade, which has resulted in increased attention from the scientific world, governments and citizenship. However, many people remain outside knowledge and awareness, regarding the risks posed by certain natural events, which increase their potential damage as urban growth occurs and there are more and more alterations on geographical scenarios, such as rivers and bodies of water. All this takes place in Doña María creek, in Itagüí, which has generated minor emergency situations, but which can become major disasters, if a thorough investigation and contingency work is not done in this regard. In this sense, the present work synthesizes the main policies on the subject, as well as some background, that allow us to understand the ravine as a subject of tights and the risks that the population located in the lower part of its basin experiences, all in order to formulate some recommendations that can contribute to planning instruments of isntances, as well as to more accurate decisions.
