Descripción:The present work aims to bring the reader closer to the principles and foundations of sustainable urban development from a theoretical-methodological perspective, providing an overview of urban sustainability through a series of antecedents and references focused on the management of sustainable public policies. In this sense, the work presents a critical analysis of the case of the city of Orizaba, Veracruz, Mexico;It has been cataloged within the UN Prosperous Cities Index (CPI) as a sustainable city, based on implemented measures and their results in urban policies focused on three specific urban indicators: solid waste management, efficient public transport, and management of green areas.
