YEPEZ, Patricio; ALVAREZ SINTES, Roberto    BARCOS PINA, Indira. A health based approach on the strategic convergence for the 2030 Sustainable Development´s agenda. []. , 46, 1   10--2020. ISSN 1561-3127.

2030 Agenda corresponds to the set of programs, actions and guidelines which constitute global challenges and guide the work of United Nations and member countries toward sustainable development. The objective of this article is to call attention to the ways in which interactions occur between health and health´s social determinants. In addition, to present the progress and challenges identified by universities, bodies of integration, international technical cooperation and the Latin American Parliament in the social, economic and environmental dimensions, with the aim of encouraging the 2030 Agenda through a continuous strategic convergence, and linked to a political will of the organizations. The method comes from the critical analysis of available information in bibliographic sources, documents, debate groups and interviews. The results were expressed in three groups that corresponded with each action area of the sustainable development´s objectives: social, economic and environmental. Recommendations were identified and comments on the strategic convergence were issued, which must promote the initiatives in the territory that is stressed as the main area of confluence of the population, the local government and the different sectoral actors and international cooperation. The recommendations were presented at the 11th International Congress on Higher Education, Cuba, February 2018; the Extraordinary Assembly of the Union of Universities of Latin America and the Caribbean, Mexico, April 2018; in the 3rd Regional Conference on Higher Education in Latin America and the Caribbean, Argentina, June 2018; as well as to the Regional Directorate of the United Nations Program for Latin America and the Caribbean.
