Experiencias de investigación feminista: propuestas y reflexiones metodológicas

Este texto es una presentación del monográfico Experiencias de investigación feminista: propuestas y reflexiones metodológicas. En él damos cuenta de las consideraciones y motivaciones principales que nos han llevado a proponerlo, así como de la trayectoria y el proceso de trabajo con metodologías feministas del que formamos parte, el seminario SIMReF. De esta manera, exponemos algunas dificultades que se mantienen para producir conocimiento no androcéntrico en la academia, sostenemos el interés de trabajar sobre métodos con los que transversalizar el análisis de sexo y género en distintas áreas disciplinarias, planteamos la oportunidad de elaborar guías o referentes metodológicos para aplicar las epistemologías feministas en nuestras investigaciones y, especialmente, abogamos por la necesidad de dar cuenta de las decisiones prácticas tomadas en los procesos de investigación que realizamos, a fin de hacer visible así la “cocina” de los mismos. Para acabar, describimos con brevedad el contenido presente en el monográfico

Research priorities for maintaining biodiversity’s contributions to people in Latin America

Maintaining biodiversity is crucial for ensuring human well-being. The authors participated in a workshop held in Palenque, Mexico, in August 2018, that brought together 30 mostly early-career scientists working in different disciplines (natural, social and economic sciences) with the aim of identifying research priorities for studying the contributions of biodiversity to people and how these contributions might be impacted by environmental change. Five main groups of questions emerged: (1) Enhancing the quantity, quality, and availability of biodiversity data; (2) Integrating different knowledge systems; (3) Improved methods for integrating diverse data; (4) Fundamental questions in ecology and evolution; and (5) Multi-level governance across boundaries. We discuss the need for increased capacity building and investment in research programmes to address these challenges
