Evaluación de los riesgos en los procesos de planificación y ejecución presupuestaria para la maximización del uso de los recursos externos asignado a proyecto de desarrollo del politicas públicas al año 2016

En el presente trabajo se evalúa los riesgos relacionados al proceso de planificación y la ejecución presupuestaria y su efecto financiero para mejorar el uso de los recursos externos asignados a proyectos de desarrollo de políticas públicas. En el desarrollo de la investigación se identifica el marco legal y normativos que regula los procesos que se aplican para el desarrollo del proyecto, se determina las unidades administrativas y su grado de incidencia en la ejecución en proyectos de desarrollo de políticas públicas, Así mismo se describen los procesos aplicados en el área de Adquisiciones y Contrataciones para las contrataciones de bienes y servicios a través de recursos externos, y posteriormente se evalúa el presupuesto programado y la ejecución del mismo durante el periodo de duración del proyecto. Para la evaluación de los resultados se emplearon instrumentos de análisis que permitieran conocer los procedimientos aplicados desde la planificación y la puesta en marcha del proyecto de desarrollo de políticas públicas, basados en observación del cumplimiento del marco legal en los procesos, entrevistas dirigidas al personal de las unidades administrativas inmersas en la ejecución del proyecto, revisión documental de convenio de cooperación, así como análisis de la ejecución presupuestarias. Los resultados expresan el eficiente cumplimiento de las leyes, normas y procedimientos por parte de las unidades administrativas, sin embargo la eficiencia en la aplicación de los Elaborado Por Lic. Allan Jossué Guzmán Mendoza Página iv procesos no determina su eficacia, en ciertas estepas del proyecto se generan atrasos, producto de incumplimientos de requerimientos metodológicos en los planes operativos, dificultades en las contrataciones por incumplimiento de especificaciones técnicas por parte de los proveedores de bienes y servicios, dejando procesos sin ejecutar, declarados desiertos. Al mismo tiempo cuando las disponibilidades de los créditos presupuestarios no cubren con los compromisos reales del periodo. Las principales conclusiones obtenidas son: la identificación de los riesgos en los procesos es necesario para establecer controles, al no tener identificados los riesgos en cada proceso genera una posición de incertidumbre del manejo de los posibles eventos que generen pérdidas de tiempo y de recursos en el desarrollo del proyecto; así mismo no se cuenta manual de procedimientos para la ejecución de proyectos de políticas públicas, recomendándose elaborar un manual especializado que incluya los procedimientos ejecutados en cada una de las áreas involucradas en el desarrollo del proyecto

Pupal surveys for Aedes aegypti surveillance and potential targeted control in residential areas of Mérida, México.

A mosquito larval-pupal survey was conducted in 1,160 households of the Mexican city of Mérida during the rainy season of 2003 to determine their differential productivity for Aedes aegypti. Larvae and pupae were detected in 15 broad categories of container types. All breeding sites were found in the patios (backyards) and were potentially rain filled. Ae. aegypti pupae were produced from all categories of breeding site, and no single container type was predominately responsible for pupal production. The most productive buckets comprised 42% of the pupae-positive containers and provided 34% of the total pupae collected. Pupal production in buckets, together with plastic rubbish, pet dishes and basins, utensils for cooking and washing, tires, and flowerpots, accounted for almost 87% of pupal production. However, the most important pupal producers had low infestation indices for immature forms, illustrating that the use of positive-container indices can underestimate the importance of certain breeding sites. Overall, 40% of containers that were observed harboring Ae. aegypti pupae were classified as disposable. The remaining containers were considered useful, although some were seldom used. The discussion focuses on the potential utility of the pupal survey for targeting control, and its resulting pupae-per-person entomological indicator, both for comparison with a theoretical threshold for dengue transmission and for targeting vector control in this Mexican city

Efficient Removal of Hg(II) fromWater under Mildly Acidic Conditions with Hierarchical SiO2 Monoliths Functionalized with –SH Groups

In this work, novel adsorbents based on 3D hierarchical silica monoliths functionalized with thiol groups were used for the removal of Hg(II) ions from an acidic aqueous solution (pH 3.5). Silica monoliths were synthesized by using two different pluronic triblock polymers (P123 and F127) to study the effect of porous structure on their sorption capacity. Before and after functionalization by grafting with 3-mercaptopropyltrimethoxysilane (MPTMS), the monoliths were characterized by several techniques, and their Hg(II) removal potential was evaluated in batch experiments at 28 C and pH 3.5, using different initial concentrations of Hg(II) ions in water (200–500 mg L1). The thiol groups of the monoliths calcined at 550 C showed thermal stability up to 300 C (from TG/DTG). The functionalized monolith synthesized with P123 polymer and polyethylene glycol showed favorable hierarchical macro-mesopores for Hg(II) adsorption. M(P123)–SH exhibited 97% removal of Hg(II) at concentration 200 mg L1. Its maximum adsorption capacity (12.2 mmol g1) was two times higher than that of M(F127)–SH, demonstrating that the 3D hierarchical macro-mesoporosity allowing accessibility of Hg(II) to thiol groups favors the physical and chemical adsorption of Hg(II) under slightly acidic conditions

Modelos Y Estilos De Resolución De Conflictos En El Marco De Una Cultura De La Paz Para Los Líderes De Las Unidades Habitacionales Del Municipio De Puebla, México

This paper focuses on the different theories on management and styles of conflict resolution in order to establish a culture of peace among the leaders of the housing units of the municipality of Puebla, Mexico. The literature was reviewed using keywords in different databases. The main findings suggest that there is a great diversity of models and styles of conflict resolution, as well as different instruments to evaluate them. However, its focus is fundamentally oriented to organizational reality, rather than to issues of a social nature. The model and style of conflict resolution that best explains the prevailing situation in housing units is the two-dimensional approach with four styles

Exploring the Use of 3D Scanning to Determine Whole-Body Volume While Wearing a Triathlon Wetsuit

Background: Commercial 3 Dimension (3D) scanners are relatively new to anthropometry. The purpose of this study was to explore ability of using a 3D imaging instrument to measure body volume with and without wearing a wetsuit. Three experiments were conducted to achieve this purpose: (1) to determine if the 3D imaging instrument could accurately measure volume of static objects; (2) to determine the resolution of accuracy of measuring volume of static objects; and (3) to compare whole-body volume of wearing a wetsuit using 3D imaging as well as another body volume measure (air displacement technique). Methods: Three experiments were performed: (1) measurement of volume of a mannequin head and a box using a 3D scanner, water displacement (for mannequin head), and dimension measurements (for box) techniques for determining volume, (2) volume measurements of 1, 2, and 3 layers of neoprene to assess the resolution capabilities of the 3D scanner, and (3) body volume with and without wearing a wetsuit using a 3D scanner and BodPod (air displacement instrument). Results: (1) Mannequin head volume using the 3D scanner was 1.46% greater than a water displacement technique; the box volume from scanning was significantly greater than volume calculated by measuring dimensions of a box. (2) The volume of a single layer of neoprene was 25.3% less with scanning than the criterion; the volume of two layers was 27.2% less than the criterion; the volume of three layers was not significantly different from the criterion. (3) Body volume was not influenced by the interaction of wetsuit and device; body volume was on average 5% greater with wetsuit than without regardless of instrument. Conclusions: We demonstrated that body volume as measured by a 3D scanner increased when a wetsuit was worn
