Ministry of the Environment and Sustainable Development (Argentina)

The Ministry of the Environment and Sustainable Development (; MAyDS) of Argentina is a ministry of the national executive power that oversees the government's policy on environmental issues and promotes sustainable development.
It was formed in 2015, having previously existed as a Secretariat under different parent agencies. Its current minister, since 10 December 2019, is Juan Cabandié.
History.
The first governmental agency to deal exclusively with environmental issues in Argentina was the Secretariat of Natural Resources and Human Environment ("Secretaría de Recursos Naturales y Ambiente Humano"), created in 1991 during the presidency of Fernando de la Rúa, which answered to the Office of the Chief of Cabinet. The first secretariat responsible was María Julia Alsogaray. Throughout the 1990s and into the 2000s the Secretariat was moved from the Chief of Cabinet's office to the Ministry of Social Development, the Ministry of Health, and then the Chief of Cabinet's office again. 
In 2015, President Mauricio Macri elevated the secretariat to ministerial level in his first cabinet, appointing Sergio Bergman as minister. In 2018 Macri would reverse this decision, placing the now secretariat under the General Secretariat of the Presidency; Bergman retained the portfolio as Secretary. 
Since 2019, under President Alberto Fernández, the Ministry has regained its status in the cabinet, this time with Juan Cabandié as minister responsible.
