    El objetivo de este estudio es conocer el estado de la gestión con enfoque de responsabilidad social empresarial (RSE) en las empresas hoteleras de la región Piura en el año 2015, utilizando como herramienta de evaluación el cuestionario de indicadores Ethos- Perú 2021. En la actualidad, en Perú y Latinoamérica, son pocos los hoteles que implementan la responsabilidad social en sus modelos de gestión, por lo que el presente estudio es un medio que permitirá alcanzar un fin concreto, como es la aplicación de la responsabilidad social para la sostenibilidad de las empresas del referido sector en la región. Esta investigación cuantitativa tiene un diseño no experimental con alcance transversal basado en la creación de vínculos entre las variables de estudio, la población constituida por los gerentes de cinco hoteles de la región Piura cuya identidad se mantuvo en el anonimato durante de la investigación. Para el estudio, se aplicaron las preguntas de profundidad mediante el cuestionario de indicadores de RSE de Ethos-Perú 2021, según el modelo virtual en forma auto evaluativa respondida por los informantes, y se contrastó la información con las preguntas binarias. Los resultados obtenidos y presentados en gráficas han demostrado que el cumplimiento de los indicadores de RSE Ethos-Perú 2021, según las conclusiones de las respuestas binarias, tienen una tendencia cercana a la media de cumplimiento y, según las preguntas de profundidad, en una etapa dos (02), para las cinco empresas del sector hoteleroThe aim of this study is to determine the status of management with a focus on corporate social responsibility (CSR) in hotel companies in the Piura region in 2015, using the questionnaire Ethos-Peru 2021 indicators, as an evaluation tool. Today, in Peru and Latin America are few hotels that implement social responsibility in their management models, so this study is a way that will achieve a particular purpose, such as the implementation of social responsibility for sustainability companies of that sector in the region. This quantitative research has a non-experimental design with transverse extent based on creating links between the study variables, the population comprised of managers of five hotels in the Piura region who remained anonymous during the investigation. For the study, questions were applied by depth questionnaire Ethos indicators of CSRPeru 2021, according to the virtual model in auto Evaluative form answered by informants, and information contrasted with binary questions; the results obtained and presented in graphs, have shown that compliance with CSR indicators Ethos-Peru 2021, according to the findings of binary answers lie with a trend close to the average of compliance and questions deep in a stage two (02) to the management philosophy in which every hotelier was, for the five hotels companiesTesi

    Isotopic evidence for mobility in the Copper and Bronze Age Cemetery of Humanejos (Parla, Madrid): a diachronic approach using biological and archaeological variables

    Over the last several decades, the application of aDNA and strontium isotope analyses on archaeologically recovered human remains has provided new avenues for the investigation of mobility in past societies. Data on human mobility can be valuable in the reconstruction of prehistoric residential patterns and kinship systems, which are at the center of human social organization and vary across time and space. In this paper, we aim to contribute to our understanding of mobility, residence, and kinship patterns in late Prehistoric Iberia (c. 3300–1400BC) by providing new strontium data on 44 individuals from the site of Humanejos (Parla, Madrid). The study presented here is multi-proxy and looks at these new data by interweaving biological, chronological, and archaeological information. This analysis found that 7/44 individuals buried at Humanejos could be identified as non-local to the necropolis. Although more men (n = 5) than women (n = 2) were found in the non-local category, and more non-local individuals were identified in the pre-Bell Beaker (n = 5) than in Bell Beaker (n = 1) or Bronze Age (n = 1), we find no statistically significant differences concerning sex or time period. This contrasts with other archaeological datasets for late prehistoric Europe which suggest higher female mobility, female exogamy, and male-centered residential patterns were common. At Humanejos, we have also identified one non-local female whose exceptional Beaker grave goods suggest she was an individual of special status, leading to additional questions about the relationships between gender, mobility, and social position in this region and time periodThe project leading to this publication has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation program under the Marie Sklodowska-Curie Grant Agreement No 891776, project “WOMAM.

    Impacts of a hydroinfiltrator rainwater harvesting system on soil moisture regime and groundwater distribution for olive groves in semi-arid Mediterranean regions

    Dry periods in semi-arid regions constitute one of the greatest hazardous features that agriculture faces. This study investigates the effects of using a new device called ‘Hydroinfiltrator Rainwater Harvesting System (HRHS) on the water balance of soils. It was designed for arid and semi-arid zones affected by long periods of drought punctuated by heavy rainstorms. The new hydroinfiltrator consists of a net-like shell filled mainly with biochar. It is cylindrical in shape, is placed vertically and is half-buried in the soil around the crop tree to facilitate the infiltration of rainwater, irrigation or runoff water deep into the soil. The experimental plot is located in Baena (Córdoba, southern Spain) in an olive grove where the hydroinfiltrator was installed in 90 olive trees while 10 were left as a control group. In the xeric climate (bordering on arid), typical of the region, soils without a hydroinfiltrator have had a low infiltration rate, which reduces the effectiveness of precipitation and significantly increases the risk of water erosion. The effects of infiltration assisted by the device were analysed by simulating a torrential rain in which 600 L of water were passed through the hydroinfiltrator on an olive tree which had been installed 3 years previously. Geophysical methods (electrical resistivity tomography, ERT), direct analyses of soil samples, both in situ and in the laboratory, and theoretical flow models indicated a very significant increase in soil moisture (which nearly tripled in respect to the control group) because water was absorbed into the soil quickly, preventing runoff and water erosion. The soil moisture at 20 cm depth was 2.97 times higher with the HRHS than in the control plots. In addition, olive production increased by 211% and was higher in fat yield by 177%. Moreover, the resistivity profiles, taken by ERT showed that the water that entered the soil accumulated in the root zone of the olive tree, encouraged by the preferential pathways created by the roots and away from the surface, which prevented rapid evaporation during the high temperatures of spring and summer. Here we show for the first time that the use of the hydroinfiltrator rainwater harvesting system represents a significant improvement in the use of scarce water resources caused by climate change, providing agronomic and environmental benefits for rainfed, Mediterranean agricultural systems
