Resumo: Ecovillages have been highlighted among the initiatives that promote sustainable development in the contemporary world. However, little is known about their effectiveness in the economic, social, environmental, and institutional contexts, in relation to society in general. This study compared, quali-quantitatively, 11 IBGE (Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics) Sustainable Development Indicators (SDIs) in the country with the respective data for the participating ecovillages. Of these indicators, five were related to the environmental dimension; four others to the social dimension; and two to the economic dimension. Questionnaires were used with 52 ecovillages, with open and closed questions, resulting in 32 responses with different degrees of detail. The results suggest that ecovillages outperform those described by IBGE, for the population as a whole, in all indicators that were analyzed. However, there are still challenges to be overcome, such as the difficulty of these groups in dealing with social and economic aspects.

No entanto, pouco se sabe sobre a sua efetividade nos contextos econômico, social, ambiental e institucional, em relação à sociedade em geral. O presente estudo comparou quali-quantitativamente 11 Indicadores de Desenvolvimento Sustentável (IDS) do IBGE no país com os respectivos dados obtidos para as ecovilas participantes. Desses indicadores, cinco foram relacionados à dimensão ambiental; outros quatro para a dimensão social e dois para a dimensão econômica. Foram utilizadas fichas de coleta, com questões abertas e fechadas, para 52 ecovilas, com 32 respostas com diferentes graus de detalhamento. Os resultados sugerem que as ecovilas apresentam um desempenho superior aos descritos pelo IBGE, para a população brasileira como um todo, em todos os indicadores analisados. Porém, ainda há desafios a serem superados, como a dificuldade desses grupos em lidar com aspectos sociais e econômicos.Las ecoaldeas han destacado entre las iniciativas que promueven lo desarrollo sostenible en el mundo contemporáneo. Sin embargo, poco se sabe acerca de su efectividad en los contextos económicos, sociales, ambientales e institucionales, en relación a la sociedad en general. El presente estudio compara, en aspectos cualitativos y cuantitativos, los 11 Indicadores de Desarrollo Sostenible del IBGE con los datos respectivos para las ecoaldeas participantes. De ellos, cinco estaban relacionados con las preocupaciones ambientales; otros cuatro con la dimensión social y dos con la dimensión económica. Se utilizaron formularios, con preguntas abiertas y cerradas a 52 ecoaldeas, con 32 respuestas en distintos grados de detalle. Los resultados sugieren que las ecoaldeas superan a los descritos por IBGE, para la población como un todo, en todos los indicadores analizados.
