Sustainable Development is defined as "development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs" (World Commission on Environment and Development, 1987).

It guarantees a balance between economic growth, care for the environment, and social well-being, ensuring that natural resources are preserved for future generations.
