This study documents some elements of unethical research involving Indigenous populations, including lack of informed consent of participants, lack of community involvement for consultation or permission for use of data or biological samples collected, and concerns about cultural sensitivity. The Triangle of Decadence has been proposed as a possible way to promote a change of mentality among researchers that helps to identify the core problems of unethical research. It gives a possible explanation of what triggers ethical dumping, describing the three points as 1) abuse of power, 2) ignorance of ethical research regulations, and 3) economic interests, and in the middle of the triangle is 4) the silence and complicity of third parties that aggravate the situation. Possible solutions to these problems are presented. Finally, we explain that there is also a risk of selective representation and tokenization of Indigenous communities.

El Sustainable development is a priority objective in contemporary societies. In this context, the un has established clear limits for the ecological footprint of countries. Mexico, with moderate and extreme water poverty levels, obtained a score of 57/100 points, positioning it as one of the most polluting countries in the world and moving away from the goals of the 2030 Agenda. This scenario requires nations, especially developed ones, to be more responsible in their investments in developing countries. The implementation of innovative technologies for water supply and sanitation, aligned with un proposals, is crucial to move towards a sustainable future and meet global commitments.
