Territorial governance for the sustainable development of Peru

Abstract

The objective of this article is to analyze territorial governance as a fundamental axis for the sustainable development of peoples, as well as the participation of the State, society and the business sector in the context of public policies. The research is conceived under the qualitative-interpretive approach supported by the theory based on the bibliographic review; The following steps were carried out: first, the delimitation and categorization of the research was carried out, and the central research question was formulated, in the second instance, the information search was carried out through indexed journals in recognized databases; Finally, the content of the article was developed under the interpretive paradigm. It is concluded that, in Peru, the efficiency in the implementation of public policies is still limited. Social programs have been implemented that have not contributed to social development, showing that public management needs to be flexible, creative and efficient, with the participation of local actors, and that development requires from these actors a vision of the future with modern thoughts that promote prospective practice and continuous learning.
