description General conservation-related land use standards comprise environmentally important areas according to the principles of preservation, restoration and sustainable usage, which internationally consist of three categories, all conceptually different from each other depending on their particular components: i) protected areas, ii) ecological networks, and iii) green infrastructures. The articleanalyzes those general conservation standards in 32 Colombian municipalities in order to determine to which they respond for the most part, methodologically, by studying all local Territorial Planning Documents to establish which conservation standards were used, how they named, defined and classified them, and which components were considered, taking the name of the standard implemented in each town literally from the Plans studied. Then, each conservation standard found was classified as a protected area, an ecological network or a green infrastructure, based on the components accounted for and their classification. As a result, fifty general conservation standards were found under twenty-eight different denominations, mostly correspondent to ecological networks, followed by green infrastructures and, in a smaller amount, a combination of those two. It was also observed that, although structured by a great variety of environmental elements, as a common feature, all standards included water system components.

Las figuras generales de uso del suelo afines a la conservación aglomeran áreas con importancia ambiental, de acuerdo con objetivos de la conservación que buscan: preservar, restaurar o hacer uso sostenible de ellas. A nivel internacional se reconocen tres tipos: i) áreas protegidas, ii) redes ecológicas, y iii) infraestructuras verdes. Ellas difieren conceptualmente y por tanto los elementos que las componen no son los mismos. El artículo analiza las figuras generales de conservación en 32 municipios colombianos, para determinar a cuál de estas tres figuras corresponden. La metodología consistió en el estudio de los Planes de Ordenamiento Territorial de dichos municipios para determinar qué figuras de conservación utilizan, cómo las denominan, definen y clasifican, y qué elementos las conforman. Los nombres de las figuras generales de conservación fueron tomados de manera literal de los planes revisados. Cada figura de conservación encontrada, fue clasificada como área protegida, red ecológica o infraestructura verde, tomando como parámetros sus componentes y la clasificación de los mismos. Se identificaron un total de 50 figuras generales de conservación bajo 28 denominaciones diferentes. La mayoría corresponde a redes ecológicas, seguidas de infraestructuras verdes, y en menor número, a una mezcla de esas dos figuras. Hay gran variedad en los elementos que las conforman, pero todas tienen en común la inclusión de componentes del sistema hídrico. 2011-12-14 2024-10-10T02:28:57Z 2024-10-10T02:28:57Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Artículo revisado por pares http://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501 http://purl.org/coar/version/c_970fb48d4fbd8a85 https://revistas.uan.edu.co/index.php/nodo/article/view/60 https://repositorio.uan.edu.co/handle/123456789/10532 spa https://revistas.uan.edu.co/index.php/nodo/article/view/60/47 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0 http://purl.org/coar/access_right/c_abf2 application/pdf UNIVERSIDAD ANTONIO NARIÑO REVISTA NODO; Vol. 6 Núm. 11 (2011); 65 - 76 2346-092X 1909-3888
