    El presente trabajo analizara de manera detallada el esquema fiduciario del departamento del Atlántico.Este modelo se ha aplicado en el sector vivienda con el ánimo de lograr equidad en el acceso a estas para los hogares mediante apoyos financieros complementarios para la adquisición de vivienda nueva. Esta investigacion pretende ampliar el conocimiento sobre la fiducia mercantil e inmobiliaria, porque, aunque es un método actualmente muy usado por nuestros gobernadores para el desarrollo de nuestra sociedad beneficiando a millones de personas, es importante conocer no solo las ventajas que ofrece este tipo de negocio sino también las desventajas que conlleva al fideicomitente. La investigación es de carácter cualitativo y se apoyará en fuentes bibliográficas y/o trabajos de investigación previos. Es importante establecer la eficacia y eficiencia del contrato fiduciario en el desarrollo inmobiliario del área metropolitana del Atlántico, es una herramienta valiosa para el acceso y financiamiento en programas de vivienda de interés social y prioritario.Por ello, abordaremos de una manera muy amplia no solo el negocio fiduciario en el programa de interés social y prioritario sino, su descripción, tipos de fiducia, historia fiduciaria, conceptos necesarios, su esquema etc., para entender de la manera menos compleja posible y fortalecer el conocimiento no solo de los fideicomitentes sino de cualquier persona que quiera acceder a este tipo de programas y/o negocio fiduciario.This paper will analyze in detail the fiduciary scheme of the department of Atlántico. This model has been applied in the housing sector with the aim of achieving equity in access to housing for households through complementary financial support for the acquisition of new housing. This research aims to expand the knowledge about commercial and real estate trust, because, although it is a method currently widely used by our governors for the development of our society benefiting millions of people, it is important to know not only the advantages offered by this type of business but also the disadvantages that it entails for the settlor. The research is qualitative in nature and will be based on bibliographic sources and/or previous research work.It is important to establish the effectiveness and efficiency of the trust agreement in the real estate development of the Atlantic metropolitan area, it is a valuable tool for access to and financing in housing programs of social interest and priority. For this reason, we will address in a very broad way not only the fiduciary business in the program of social and priority interest but also its description, types of fiduciary, fiduciary history, necessary concepts, its outline, etc.to understand in the least complex way possible and strengthen the knowledge not only of the settlors but of anyone who wants to access this type of programs and/or fiduciary business.Lista de tablas 6 -- Introducción 7 -- Planteamiento del problema 8 -- Pregunta de investigación 14 -- Objetivos 15 -- Objetivo General 15 -- Objetivos Específicos 15 – Justificación 16 -- Delimitación 18 -- Delimitación Espacial 18 -- Delimitación Temporal 18 -- Delimitación Científica 18 -- Paradigma de Investigación 18 -- Metodología 19 -- Corte de Investigación 19 -- Línea de investigación 20 -- Sublínea 20 -- Marco teórico 21 -- Fiducia 21 -- Fiducia Mercantil 21 -- Encargo Fiduciario 22 -- Fiducia Pública 22 -- Patrimonio Autónomo 23 -- Tipos de negocios fiduciarios 24 -- Fiducia de Inversión 24 -- Fiducia de Administración 24 -- Fiducia Inmobiliaria 25 -- Fiducia en Garantía 26 -- Fiducia con recursos del sistema general de seguridad social y otros relacionados 27 -- Actores en el contrato fiduciario 27 -- Programa de vivienda de interés social y prioritario 29 -- Marco histórico 33 -- Etimología y antecedentes históricos 33 -- Fiducia Romana 33 -- Fiducia Anglosajona 36 -- Fiducia Germana 38 -- Fiducia Latinoamérica 39 -- La fiducia en el ordenamiento jurídico colombiano 41 -- Programa de vivienda de interés social y prioritario 42 -- Decreto 2190 de 2009 subsidios vivienda de interés social y prioritario 43 -- La fiducia en el área metropolitana del departamento del atlántico 44 -- Ley 1537 2012 46 -- Decreto 428 de 2015 49 -- Esquema fiduciario de acceso a el programa de vivienda de interés social y prioritario 52 -- Esquema Fiduciario Colombiano 52 -- Esquema Fiduciario en el Área Metropolitano 55 -- Datos de su uso en el Área Metropolitana 57 -- La fiducia en el programa vivienda para la gente en el departamento del Atlántico 61 -- Rol de los constructores 64 -- Funcionamiento del contrato 64 -- Administración y pagos 65 -- Funcionamiento del fideicomiso dentro del contrato 67 -- Comité fiduciario 67 -- Comité técnico 67 -- Comité Financiero 68 -- Identificación de las partes del contrato 68 -- Análisis de la fiducia inmobiliaria como herramienta de acceso a el programa de vivienda de interés social y prioritario 69 -- Aspectos convenientes 69 -- Aspectos positivos 69 -- Aspectos de riesgo 70 -- Aspectos frágiles 70 -- Recomendaciones 74 -- Conclusión 76 -- Referencias 79 --Abogado(a)Pregrad

    No full text
    Due to the high competitiveness companies face in occupying positions as world business leaders, they must develop strategies to improve their processes while implementing certification in quality management systems under the ISO 9001 standard. This paper is based on a systematic analysis of the requirements of the standard ISO 9001 and recognised methodologies worldwide in process improvements, such as lean manufacturing, business process reengineering, Lean Six Sigma, and business process management. In which a framework of best organisational practices was designed. Here it was possible to identify some activities of the certification processes that could be improved using this framework when implementing a management system, so that it can be used as a control concept to increase the probability of obtaining processes that promote quality from the implementation of the QMS

    Maintenance process analysis in a port cargo company through discrete event simulation

    No full text
    Cargo transfer is a key procedure in port businesses; nevertheless, the electromechanical equipment employed for maintenance should adhere to a set of standards to ensure its proper operation all the time, which may raise production costs. Because of this, every improvement that enables minimizing production losses and expenses over the short, medium, and long time is a decisive choice that companies should consider becoming sustainable. Under this policy, the maintenance process has assumed a significant role as an integral part of the manufacturing process and not only as a dependency of the company. In this study, proposals for improving a port company's maintenance procedure will be analyzed using the discrete event simulation technique. The findings at the task execution stage reveal delays or queues that have a direct impact on the overall time necessary to accomplish maintenance. The reason that the equipment in the locations is not available on time could be due to a lack of supplies or replacement parts required to finish the repair. This has a negative impact on the scheduled maintenance times. Additionally, the simulation results show that incorporating one person into the process improves reaction times. However, the final recommendation is that a future role or workload study should be carried out instead of hiring other employees and, if possible, redistributing workloads among the people who are part of the company

    Analysis of self-efficacy and attitude-mediated inclusivity in higher education: a case study on the Colombian North Coast

    No full text
    Inclusivity is a fundamental principle of education worldwide as it fosters the general well-being of students, educators, and other parties in the education sector. Moreover, inclusive education is a multidimensional phenomenon that many factors can influence. Thus, understanding the underlying interactions between those factors fostering inclusivity may help to inform decisions taken by the involved parties, such as education-related policymakers. This study examines the relationship between self-efficacy and the attitudes of higher education teachers toward inclusive education. We applied two psychometric survey-like instruments: the SelfEfficacy Scale for Inclusive Teaching Practices and the University and Disability Issues Scale. The study cohort comprised 68 higher education professors from universities in Barranquilla on the Colombian North Coast. We found that professors exhibiting favorable attitudes to adjusting the curricula, as well as higher sensitization and relationships with students in situations of disability, are prone to perceive higher self-efficacy and less extra burden arising from the tasks associated with inclusive education

The results obtained show that the machines with the greatest impact on accidents and severity were the " BLISTER THL 100 " and the " BLISTER II ", and that the "Hidden costs" of 5 work accidents among the 58 accidents that occurred between the Years From 2018 to 2022, they generated approximately a loss of 513,047,000 pesos.Lista de Tablas y Figuras 8 -- Introducción 10 -- Planteamiento del problema 11 -- Gran Pregunta General 14 -- Preguntas Especificas 14 -- Objetivos 16 -- General 16 Específicos 16 – Justificación 17 -- Alcance 21-- Marcos de Referencias 22 -- Estado del Arte 22 -- Marco Teórico 29 -- Marco Normativo o Legal 33 -- Metodología. 37 -- Desarrollo 39 -- Identificación de condiciones inseguras generadoras de accidentes. 39 -- Reconocimiento de los costos no asegurados. 67 -- Plan de intervención en máquina blíster 72 -- Resultados y Conclusiones 82 -- Referencias 89 --Magíster en Gerencia en Seguridad y Salud en el TrabajoMaestrí

    Junk food consumer profile and behavior: a case study on the colombian population

    No full text
    People's consumption patterns, alimentary security, and alimentary sovereignty are becoming increasingly relevant as the epidemics of different diseases exhibit comorbidity with overweightness and other junk food-fostered medical conditions. Thus, governments and health-monitoring organizations have proposed and promoted strategies to mitigate the future health consequences of low-nutritional value food intake. In this research, we propose a model-based methodology to assess the effects of discouraging junk food intake (via price rising) on the customers' consumption patterns, separating the population by socioeconomic level and analyzing their price elasticity curves. A simulation model in ARENA® recreates the junk food buying patterns after price rises for a user-defined restaurant/stall setting. Further, non-linear regression models fit the price elasticity curves (discriminated by socioeconomic level). The main contribution of this work is to discriminate the elasticity curves by income level and provide a non-linear approach to fit them. The outcomes indicate that the higher the customers’ income, the less susceptible they are to price changes, i.e., the less elastic the yielded curve is. Finally, future research could focus on assessing the effects of reducing prices on customers' buying behavior and discussing the health-related consequences of the observed outcomes

    COVID-19 mortality and exposure to airborne PM2.5: a lag time correlation

    No full text
    COVID-19 has escalated into one of the most serious crises in the 21st Century. Given the rapid spread of SARS-CoV-2 and its high mortality rate, here we investigate the impact and relationship of airborne PM2.5 to COVID-19 mortality. Previous studies have indicated that PM2.5 has a positive relationship with the spread of COVID-19. To gain insights into the delayed effect of PM2.5 concentration (μgm−3) on mortality, we focused on the role of PM2.5 in Wuhan City in China and COVID-19 during the period December 27, 2019 to April 7, 2020. We also considered the possible impact of various meteorological factors such as temperature, precipitation, wind speed, atmospheric pressure and precipitation on pollutant levels. The results from the Pearson's correlation coefficient analyses reveal that the population exposed to higher levels of PM2.5 pollution are susceptible to COVID-19 mortality with a lag time of >18 days. By establishing a generalized additive model, the delayed effect of PM2.5 on the death toll of COVID-19 was verified. A negative correction was identified between temperature and number of COVID-19 deaths, whereas atmospheric pressure exhibits a positive correlation with deaths, both with a significant lag effect. The results from our study suggest that these epidemiological relationships may contribute to the understanding of the COVID-19 pandemic and provide insights for public health strategies

    Pharmaceuticals as emerging pollutants: case naproxen an overview

    No full text
    Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), including naproxen (NP), diclofenac, ibuprofen, etc., are widely used for fever and pain relief. NP is one of the most widely consumed drugs in the world, because it is available over the counter in many countries. Many studies have proven that NP is not eliminated in conventional water treatment processes and its biodegradation in the environment is also difficult compared to other drugs. Along these lines, we are aware that both the original compound and its metabolites can be found in different destinations in the environment. To assess the environmental exposure and the risks associated with NP, it is important to understand better the environment where they finally reach, the behavior of its original compounds, its metabolites, and its transformation products. In this sense, the purpose of this review is to summarize the current state of knowledge about the introduction and behavior of NP in the environments they reach and highlight research needs and gaps. Likewise, we present the sources, environmental destinations, toxicology, environmental effects, and quantification methodologies
