In September 2015, the 2030 agenda was approved to meet the sustainable development objectives until that year, in May 2016 the Environmental Performance Index was published, which seeks to quantify the results of environmental policies and provides an order among countries. The objective of this work is to reflect on ecosystems resilience as an awareness of its contribution to the environmental performance index and its relation with the policies and future goals towards the Objectives of Sustainable Development.
