Access and control of natural resources,
particularly those that are considered strategic has not only
been a source of welfare and prosperity in the Americas, but
also a source of tensions. Despite the efforts of Member States
to promote and strengthen capacities for the peaceful settlement
of disputes and for the promotion of inclusive dialogue [12],
hemispheric trends show that socio-environmental conflicts are
on the rise [13]. This is in part due to scarcity, population
movements driven by environmental change, and the deficit in
the legal-policy frameworks that regulate resource exploitation
and distribution of wealth. Efforts in this area are focused
on the foundations of peace building: good governance and civil
society [4]. In other words, on strengthened, effective, transparent
and inclusive institutions for sustainable development, on promoting
trust and the conditions to ease and prevent socio-environmental
tensions from scaling up [5], [6].
