Abstract

type="main" xml:lang="es"> Resumen . Mediante la colaboración entre investigadores de la Universidad Estatal de Washington y una pequeña ciudad de los Estados Unidos se ha buscado poner de relieve los desafíos de la participación de la comunidad en la toma de decisiones sobre la gestión de residuos. También se explora el papel del sistema estadounidense de extensión cooperativa a la concesión de tierras en cuanto al logro de la participación efectiva de la comunidad en torno a la gestión de residuos y otras cuestiones complejas. Se hace uso de cuatro conceptos para una toma de decisiones resiliente, como marco conceptual para el examen de los méritos de este proyecto. El estudio de caso incluye la información obtenida a través de la recopilación y el análisis de datos en profundidad por más de 32 meses, mediante la observación de los participantes y la realización de una encuesta por correo a 374 hogares.
