Abstract

This technical report tries to show the challenges to come for the sector and even for society in general. The information provided here is relevant, not only has documentary information published by international sources been collected, but primary information has also been compiled that has helped to identify variables that deserve multi-sector attention. It involves the application of a prospective cutting instrument in which the driving and dependent variables exposed by the participating specialists in the application of the Structural Analysis technique are exposed and subjected to a weighted assessment (influence-dependence). of the software called "Cross-impact matrix multiplication applied to classification" (MICMAC), generated by the Laboratory of research in strategic prospective (LIPSOR). Although, the results obtained by the application of the structural analysis technique (MICMAC) denote a series of key or strategic variables (with high influence and dependence), it is important to highlight the need to continue with the approach to the issue to give greater solidity to the findings anticipated in the present study. In this sense, it is expected that the authorities, as strategic actors, promote shared, inclusive and objective dialogues to imagine, design and build the future in the short, medium and long term, in addition to establishing, improving and making transparent institutional mechanisms to consolidate the democratization of citizen participation in decision-making.
