SAUNDERS VAZQUEZ, Anaely; LUUKKANEN, Jyrki; ROY LEEKAIVO-OJA, Jari  e  VEHMAS, Jarmo. Sustainability window and doughnut economy model for Cuba. Energética [online]. 2023, vol.44, n.2, pp. 1-11.  Epub 01-Ago-2023. ISSN 1815-5901.

Sustainability Window (SuWi) analysis is a novel tool for analyzing the different dimensions of sustainability. This research defines the minimum economic development that meets social sustainability requirements and the maximum economic development so as not to exceed environmental limits. In addition, the method provides quantitative measures to define whether the development of real GDP is within the limits of sustainability. Cuba has an exciting profile among developing countries since its development has been related to sustainability in various fields. Unfortunately, the United States blockade against Cuba has severely limited development possibilities in all spheres of life. However, Cuba has developed successful sustainability policies to achieve compliance with the SDGs. SuWi's results are visualized in the Sustainability Donut, illustrating critical areas of development where policy intervention may be needed to achieve sustainability. In the Cuban case, the visualization of the donut's economy is built to analyze both strong and weak sustainability.

Palavras-chave : Sustainability; Sustainability Window (SuWi); doughnut economy; Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs); Cuba.
