Abstract(s)
A sustentabilidade pressupõe o desenvolvimento económico e social assegurando a preservação do ambiente e dos recursos naturais. Atualmente as organizações precisam adotar políticas e práticas ambientalmente sustentáveis. Esta adoção vem originando uma maior procura e utilização de modelos sustentáveis. Ao nível municipal, as autarquias dispõem de várias ferramentas para fomentarem a sua própria sustentabilidade, nomeadamente a Agenda 21 Local, as Construções Sustentáveis, a Eficiência Energética, as Energias Renováveis, as Estratégias Municipais de Adaptação às Alterações Climáticas, O Orçamento Participativo, os Relatórios de Sustentabilidade, a Gestão Integrada dos Resíduos Urbanos, o Rótulo Ecológico e os Sistemas de Gestão Ambiental. Este trabalho centra-se nestes instrumentos e tem como objetivo verificar quais as vantagens, dificuldades e benefícios da implementação de ferramentas de sustentabilidade nas organizações, tendo como foco o estudo de caso da Autarquia de Grândola. Como fontes de informação foi utilizado a pesquisa bibliográfica para estabelecer o “estado da arte” relativamente aos Instrumentos de Gestão Ambiental e como fonte de recolha de dados foram realizadas entrevistas com técnicos e Presidente da Autarquia de Grândola e organização dum Grupo Focal com os autores chave locais. De salientar, que os três instrumentos mais importantes para aplicar em Grândola segundo o resultado obtido nas entrevistas aos técnicos são as Energias Renováveis, a Eficiência Energética e o Orçamento Participativo. Os atores chave escolheram como instrumentos mais importantes o Orçamento Participativo, os Resíduos Urbanos e a A21L. Neste caso verifica-se uma divergência na escolha dos dois grupos dos Instrumentos para aplicar em Grândola, à exceção da A21L que ambos escolheram. Fica evidente no trabalho realizado a importância que as ferramentas de sustentabilidade ocupam atualmente e entre as vantagens em utilizar esta metodologia sustentável está o estímulo, a inovação, a melhoria da imagem da organização, a redução de custos e a preservação do ambiente.
Sustainability implicate economic and social development ensuring the preservation of the environment and natural resources. Nowadays organizations need to adopt environmentally sustainable policies and practices. This adoption has led to a greater demand and use of sustainable models. At municipal level, municipalities have several tools to promote their own sustainability, namely Local Agenda 21, Sustainable Construction, Energy Efficiency, Renewable Energies, Municipal Adaptation Strategies to Climate Change, Participatory Budgeting, Sustainability Reports, Integrated Urban Waste Management, Ecological Labelling and Environmental Management. This work focuses on these instruments and aims to verify the advantages, difficulties and benefits of the implementation of sustainability tools in organizations, focusing on the case study of Municipality of Grândola. As sources of information, bibliographical research was used to understand the "state of the art" in relation to the Environmental Management Instruments and as a source of data collection interviews were conducted with technicians and the President of the Autarchy of Grândola and a Focal Group with the key authors where implemented. It should be noted that the three most important instruments to apply in Grândola according to the result obtained in interviews with technicians are Renewable Energy, Energy Efficiency and Participative Budget. The key actors chose as the most important instruments the Participatory Budget, Solid Waste and Local Agenda 21. In this case there is a divergence in the choice of the two groups of Instruments to apply in Grândola, except for the Local Agenda 21 that both have chosen. It is evident in the work carried out the importance that the sustainability tools occupy today and among the advantages in using this sustainable methodology is the stimulus, the innovation, the improvement of the organizations, the costs and the environmental preservation.
