The management of information is a basic input for the design and monitoring of public policies for sustainable development. In this context, the province of Tierra del Fuego, Argentina, presents a fertile place for the design of information systems. Thus, in this document, we propose to account for the selection and consolidation of indicators for the measurement of the environmental subsystem and its relationship with the other dimensions, social, economic and institutional, all they are inherent in the concept of sustainable development. For this we will address different elements. On the one way, we will carry out a conceptual theoretical journey that will establish the criteria of sustainable development and the components of the information system. On the other way, we will select the methodological tools necessary for the composition of the system, mainly structured by qualitative approaches comprised by the theoretical comparative analysis and the definition of meta information of the different indicators, which is accompanied by in-depth interviews with key informants.
