Percepción del Arbolado Urbano en Ciudades Intermedias del Sur Global: Una revisión crítica desde el Buen Vivir
Year: 2026
Type: article
Study design: Systematic Review
Abstract: Urban trees provide ecosystem services, climate resilience, and psychosocial well-being; however, a persistent gap remains between technical valuations and community perceptions, particularly in intermediate cities of the Global South. This systematic review examines socio-ecological disconnection, Nature Deficit Disorder (NDD) -coined by Louv (2005) and absent from the DSM-5 and ICD-11- and Buen Vivir as a biocratic framework for green governance. Following PRISMA 2020 guidelines, Scopus, Web of Science, SciELO, Redalyc, and PubMed were searched (2010–2024); 63 studies met the inclusion criteria. The most significant finding reveals that 86% of available evidence originates from the Global North. In the Global South, 78% of negative perceptions stem from unmanaged disservices and low ecological literacy; NDD amplifies intolerance toward green infrastructure by up to 40%. Empirical gaps on Buen Vivir are identified, outlining a transdisciplinary Andean research agenda.
