Tutoring to novel teachers. A fragment of skylight from the border of Ciudad Juarez

Silvia Gabriela Alvídrez Minora (2022, [Artículo, Artículo])

This article describes and interprets the tutoring of novice teachers in a preschool area of ​​Ciudad Juarez. The study is situated in the interpretive paradigm; It makes use of the ethnographic method and research techniques such as participant observation and interview. The partial results show that tutoring is considered an important process for the insertion and professionalization of new teachers; however, it is mentioned that this enriching relationship is only possible when there is communication between all the people involved in the tutoring, in addition to being open to peer learning.

Natural disasters and economic growth: a synthesis of empirical evidence

Fernando Antonio Ignacio González (2023, [Artículo, Artículo])

Natural disasters pose a serious threat globally and, in the future, their frequency and severity are expected to increase due to climate change. Empirical evidence has reported conflicting results in terms of the impact of disasters on economic growth. In this context, the present work seeks to synthesize the recent empirical evidence related to this topic. More than 650 estimates, from studies published in the last five years (2015-2020), are used. Meta-analysis and meta-regression techniques are employed. The review includes three sources (Scopus, Science Direct, and Google Scholar). The results identified the existence of a negative and significant combined effect (-0.015). Developing countries are especially vulnerable to disasters. The negative impact is greater for disasters that occurred in the last decade -in relation to previous disasters-. These findings constitute a call for attention in favor of mitigation and adaptation policies.

El reto de la falta de acceso al servicio de agua potable en Sonora.

ALEJANDRO NAVARRO NAVARRO (2020, [Tesis de maestría])

Se estudió la Falta de Acceso al Agua Potable Entubada (FAAPE) en viviendas del estado se Sonora, México. El objetivo general fue identificar los principales lugares con esta problemática, así como los factores asociados a ésta. Desde las perspectivas de la seguridad hídrica, el derecho humano al agua y los Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible (ODS) de las Naciones Unidas se operacionalizó el concepto de FAAPE. A través de métodos cuantitativos de estadística descriptiva e inferencial, la construcción de un Sistema de Información Geográfica (SIG) y técnicas de análisis espacial se trabajó con datos oficiales de INEGI (2010, 2015) a nivel AGEB y vivienda, rurales o urbanos; también se realizaron visitas de campo y entrevistas semiestructuradas en dos casos de estudio. Los resultados del análisis de autocorrelación espacial a nivel AGEB mostraron que: 1) en el año 2010, los municipios con una mayor concentración de viviendas con FAAPE eran Nogales (11,054) y Huatabampo (2,459), en el ámbito urbano y rural, respectivamente; estos dos municipios se tomaron como estudio de caso para realizar trabajo de campo; y 2) se identifican a nivel estatal para 2010, 364 AGEB como agrupamientos con valores altos (hotspots) de viviendas con FAAPE. El modelo estadístico revelo que: 1) variables relacionadas con la precariedad de la vivienda (la ausencia de escrituras, tinaco, drenaje, pisos y electricidad) están altamente asociadas al no acceso de agua potable; y 2) por otro lado, altos niveles de escolaridad inhiben la falta de acceso al agua, al igual que altos niveles de ingreso. De las visitas de campo de los casos de estudio se destaca que: 1) El principal factor que afecta el acceso al agua potable en la ciudad de Nogales es la presencia de asentamientos irregulares; 2) El área rural del municipio de Huatabampo donde las pequeñas localidades se abastecen por medio de autogestión y la mayor parte del municipio sufre de escases y mala calidad del agua. Se concluye que en los casos de estudio se garantiza parcialmente la seguridad hídrica lo que se puede generalizar para todo el estado.

Necessity as a driver in bending agricultural gender norms in the Eastern Gangetic Plains of South Asia

Pragya Timsina Emma Karki Brendan Brown (2023, [Artículo])

The majority of the farmers in the rural Global South continue to depend directly or indirectly on agriculture for their livelihoods. Despite the fact that women account for almost half of the world's farmers, they face gender-specific challenges such as deeply rooted cultural and social norms that limit their access to land, assets, financial markets, agricultural training, and information. Using semi-structured interviews with farmers in the Eastern Gangetic Plains, this study investigates how necessity is becoming one of the major drivers in the bending of agricultural gender norms. The study investigates the connections between feminist political ecology and agricultural technology production frameworks in order to comprehend the implications of technology adoption and influences on gender norms in communities. Women's participation in agriculture was found to be heavily influenced by social and cultural barriers, and they were frequently subjected to social criticism for breaking the systemic gender norms. This paper emphasizes on the growing pattern of bending gender norms with recommendations for increasing women's participation and scope in future agriculture development initiatives through policies and interventions that emphasize gender equity.

Unanswered questions and unquestioned answers: the challenges of crop residue retention and weed control in Conservation Agriculture systems of southern Africa

Christian Thierfelder Blessing Mhlanga Hambulo Ngoma Paswel Marenya Md Abdul Matin Adane Tufa (2024, [Artículo])

Production and utilization of crop residues as mulch and effective weed management are two central elements in the successful implementation of Conservation Agriculture (CA) systems in southern Africa. Yet, the challenges of crop residue availability for mulch or the difficulties in managing weed proliferation in CA systems are bigger than a micro-level focus on weeds and crop residues themselves. The bottlenecks are symptoms of broader systemic complications that cannot be resolved without appreciating the interactions between the current scientific understanding of CA and its application in smallholder systems, private incentives, social norms, institutions, and government policy. In this paper, we elucidate a series of areas that represent some unquestioned answers about chemical weed control and unanswered questions about how to maintain groundcover demanding more research along the natural and social sciences continuum. In some communities, traditional rules that allow free-range grazing of livestock after harvesting present a barrier in surface crop residue management. On the other hand, many of the communities either burn, remove, or incorporate the residues into the soil thus hindering the near-permanent soil cover required in CA systems. The lack of soil cover also means that weed management through soil mulch is unachievable. Herbicides are often a successful stopgap solution to weed control, but they are costly, and most farmers do not use them as recommended, which reduces efficacy. Besides, the use of herbicides can cause environmental hazards and may affect human health. Here, we suggest further assessment of the manipulation of crop competition, the use of vigorously growing cover crops, exploration of allelopathy, and use of microorganisms in managing weeds and reducing seed production to deplete the soil weed seed bank. We also suggest in situ production of plant biomass, use of unpalatable species for mulch generation and change of grazing by-laws towards a holistic management of pastures to reduce the competition for crop residues. However, these depend on the socio-economic status dynamics at farmer and community level.
