Sendero virtual
Sendero Virtual is a virtual training initiative launched in 2023, drawing on more than 25 years of experience in virtual training throughout the Americas. Regarding its history: In 2005, with the creation of EticAgro, a civil association dedicated to Ethics and Quality in Agriculture, virtual training began in Argentina at the Faculty of Agronomy of the University of Buenos Aires. Later, the University of Bologna and the Inter-American Institute for Cooperation on Agriculture, affiliated with the Organization of American States, joined the initiative. Diploma courses were subsequently offered by the Business University of Uruguay, the Santo Tomás University of Colombia, and the National University of San Juan. Seminars and postgraduate courses were offered at the Technological University of the Mezquital Valley, Mexico, the University of Antioquia, Colombia, the Argentine Technological University, and the Consortium of Provincial Autonomous Governments of Ecuador.

Carbon footprint
Reducing the carbon footprint is one of the most common sustainability goals in recent years in the business world and has become one of the most important, if not the most urgent, tools for monitoring the performance of the various stakeholders involved in a production model. At Hawa, we help you improve your environmental responsibility with the following steps: Analysis of the company's carbon footprint. - Identify critical points - Propose changes to reduce the carbon footprint and support them on that path - Offset
Urban solid waste (MSW) management encompasses a set of actions carried out from the moment the waste is generated until its treatment is completed. Its objective is to reduce the amount of waste sent to final disposal, in order to improve the population's quality of life, preserve human health, the environment, and conserve natural resources. Our MSW management proposal applies a hierarchical framework to waste management, which guides the order of priority for handling and involves collection, transportation, treatment, recycling, and disposal.
We assist companies in environmental risk assessments, considering factors that pose threats (present or future) to the environment, analyzing conditions that increase the vulnerability of ecosystems and jeopardize the availability and conservation of resources. Our services also include the creation of environmental management systems and plans focused on minimizing the impact of each sector's production models and strengthening corporate environmental policy.
Since the implementation of the regulations imposed in our country through the General Environmental Law, governments and competent authorities have focused their controls on analyzing the documentation submitted by companies. We offer support to authorities with specialized advice and technical support in issuing opinions and requirements to ensure compliance with environmental regulations.
We offer training opportunities for anyone interested in strengthening their knowledge of sustainability and resource conservation. Our courses are available in-person and online and are suitable for any stakeholder in the public or private sector.
We support you with solutions to simplify and improve your path toward a more sustainable model.
Trainings

Our role as trainers goes beyond simply transmitting knowledge and entails the enormous responsibility of fostering environmental commitment in those we train, as well as the great challenge of sharing tools that contribute to this journey toward more sustainable production.
Who are they aimed at?
Our training spaces (virtual and/or in-person) are designed for all members of civil society (individuals, groups, institutions, public and private companies) interested in deepening their knowledge of the environmental impact of current production models.

Huella de carbono: La salud en contra de la salud
Ciertamente, asociar al sector salud o a los sistemas de salud con el cambio climático, no parecería tener mucho sentido. Sin embargo, así como sucede con la mayoría de las actividades humanas, las vinculadas con la salud también producen un impacto negativo en el ambiente.
Overview of greenhouse gases
Gases that trap heat in the atmosphere are called greenhouse gases. This section provides information on the emissions and removal methods of the main greenhouse gases into and from the atmosphere.
Conclusions of the work carried out on an organic olive farm that produces olive oil
During 2024 and part of 2025, in the Cuyo region of Hawa, we conducted an in-depth analysis of the carbon footprint of a farm, from the production of olives to their conversion into packaged extra virgin olive oil.
Power Factor and Carbon Footprint
Pursuant to the new ENRE Resolution 85/2024, installations must be adapted to avoid fines and ensure that the Power Factor is optimized, thus avoiding surcharges and penalties of up to 20% on the electricity bill. This correction is achieved by installing capacitors that reduce reactive power consumption, lowering current and losses.
