Kawsaypacha (means “World of Life” in Quechua, a native language of the Andean region). This journal contributes to the academic debate that analyzes the relationship between society and the environment from different perspectives; promotes an interdisciplinary reflection and offers innovative approaches and tools to understand the growing complexity of our relationship with nature and socio-environmental sustainability. For this, we adopt international standards of scientific communication and open science practices.
