Presentación editorial: La Innovación hacia la Construcción de un Futuro Sostenible.

This document seeks to highlight the relevance of innovation as a collective process, supported by the efforts of multiple actors - public, private and organized civil society - in the construction of a sustainable future. That is to say, innovation is analysed under an approach towards the construction of a sustainable future, based on a shared responsibility, which implies the expansion of governance mechanisms, with an inclusive view, that respects and values the environmental, social and economic dimensions. Therefore, we argue that thinking about advances in knowledge on this topic implies recognizing the relevance of the diversity of perspectives and joint decision-making and actions, in addition to recognizing the factors that facilitate or limit sustainable innovation. In this sense, this special issue of the GECONTEC Journal presents four selected papers from the Congress of the Latin-Iberoamerican Association of Technological and Innovation Management (ALTEC 2021), whose evidence corroborates what we propose here.
