Perspectivas para la Ruta del Biocéano: un análisis a través del marco FIT-2-Deeds

Abstract

The construction of a Bioceanic Route that will link Brazilian ports to Chilean ports is seen as an alternative for the flow of Brazilian exports. The recent evolution of the construction negotiations was accompanied by practical measures such as paving in Paraguay essential sections for the implementation of the Project. However, studies on environmental and social impacts only emerge after construction begins, posing political challenges for managers regarding the reconciliation of economic development and environmental responsibility. The application of the FIT-2-Deeds framework proves to be a good tool for assessing and developing the Bioceanic corridor, since corridors in the world have already been built and their economic and environmental results are already consolidated. Actions for the consolidation of the Biocean Corridor lack coordination and holistic vision given the magnitude of the venture, the possible advantages and the large impacts it can cause.
