    The aim of this article is geared toward reflection on gaps present in certain elements which define access to water for the poor and the persistence of this inequality in Colombia. The methodology applied favor a theoretical method and statistical approach where the asymmetric analysis of poverty is addressed, the coverage of water supply, access to water and impact born in providing an inadequate water supply service, all viewed in the urban and rural contexts. The results show that the slow development of political will to intervene the problem is also reflected in the slow progress of the variables that eliminate the inequality gap as poverty of 21.8 percentage points (PP), service coverage 47.1 PP and access to water at 44.4 PP. This, somehow, can be understood as a lack of social and environmental ethics from public affairs.El objetivo del presente artículo se orienta hacia una reflexión en torno a las brechas presentes en determinados elementos que tipifican el acceso al agua de la población pobre y la persistencia de esa inequidad en Colombia. La metodología y método aplicados favorecen un acercamiento teórico y estadístico donde se aborda el análisis asimétrico de la pobreza, la cobertura de acueducto, el acceso al agua y el impacto nacido en la prestación de un servicio de abastecimiento hídrico inadecuado, todo ello visto en los contextos urbano y rural. Los resultados obtenidos evidencian que el lento desarrollo de la voluntad política para intervenir la problemática se refleja igualmente en el lento avance de las variables que permiten eliminar la brecha de inequidad en cuanto pobreza de 21,8 puntos porcentuales (PP), cobertura del servicio en 47,1 PP y acceso al agua en 44,4 PP. Esto, de alguna manera, se puede entender como una falta de ética social y ambiental desde el quehacer público.O objetivo deste artigo é voltado para a reflexão sobre as lacunas presentes emcertos elementos que defi­nem o acesso à água para os pobres eapersistênciadessadesigualdade na Colômbia.

    La Universidad en casa: Reconfiguraciones socioespaciales a partir de la experiencia pandémica

    Get PDF
    Las métricas con las que las personas suelen localizarse y producir, con los otros, los lugares que habitan han cambiado durante la pandemia por Covid-19. Este artículo tiene como objetivo retomar algunas conceptualizaciones de la psicología social ambiental para reflexionar sobre el movimiento socioespacial Universidad–Casa–Universidad impuesto por las medidas de confinamiento durante la pandemia; para avanzar en este propósito las autoras proponen una revisión narrativa de la literatura. Los resultados permiten identificar que la transformación del vínculo con los lugares, durante y tras la reciente pandemia, supone una disrupción del apego a lugares significativos que soportaban la vida cotidiana y las maneras como estos han debido reconfigurarse bajo las nuevas normativizaciones de lo socioespacial durante, y tras la declaración de finalización de la pandemia. El análisis de la literatura producida sobre la lectura de lo socioespacial, en el caso de la pandemia por Covid-19, permite a las autoras abrir la discusión conceptual sobre las relaciones personas-lugares para proponer nuevas rutas de investigación y teorización en la psicología del lugar

    La tecnología es un acto de creatividad para la resolución de problemas, una revolución digital en proceso constante, que nos permite acceder a contenidos globales desde nuestros ordenadores y smartphones. A lo largo de la historia, cualquier tecnología que ha experimentado la humanidad, ha llegado para quedarse.

    Alternativas de desarrollo agropecuario con proyección sostenible para el distrito de riego del Zulia y su zona de influencia

    Get PDF
    La asociación de usuarios del Distrito de Adecuación de Tierras de Gran Escala del Río Zulia (ASOZULIA) Norte de Santander, con un área de influencia de 45.536 hectáreas, está interesada en la planificación productiva de su territorio. Dentro de sus actividades agropecuarias se encuentran el arroz (12.000 a 17.000 ha), la palma de aceite (1.534 ha), cítricos (limón, naranja; 346 ha), caña de azúcar (100 ha) y la ganadería. Su principal sistema de producción durante más de 50 años es el cultivo de arroz, sistema que presenta reducción de la productividad (7 a 3 tha), degradación del suelo y problemas de plagas y enfermedades, debido entre otros al uso continuo del fangueo como sistema de preparación de suelos. Adicionalmente, a pesar de tener el distrito de riego del río Zulia una concesión de 13,5 m3.s1, en épocas de verano la oferta hidrica es mucho menor como, por ejemplo, la correspondiente a los meses de febrero a marzo de 2016, con un caudal en la bocatoma del distrito de 10,8 m3s'y una captación real del distrito de solo 6 m.s' Asimismo, la construcción del nuevo acueducto para el área metropolitana de la ciudad de Cúcuta tomará 2,95 m3s del caudal antes de la bocatoma que provee agua al distrito, lo que disminuirá aún más la disponibilidad de agua para riego en esa región. Por lo anterior, se requiere la recuperación de los suelos para el establecimiento de nuevos sistemas productivos que demanden un menor consumo de agua y sean una alternativa viable para los productores.Acelga-Remolacha de hoja, Beta vulgaris var.

    Contributions of mean and shape of blood pressure distribution to worldwide trends and variations in raised blood pressure: A pooled analysis of 1018 population-based measurement studies with 88.6 million participants

    © The Author(s) 2018. Background: Change in the prevalence of raised blood pressure could be due to both shifts in the entire distribution of blood pressure (representing the combined effects of public health interventions and secular trends) and changes in its high-blood-pressure tail (representing successful clinical interventions to control blood pressure in the hypertensive population). Our aim was to quantify the contributions of these two phenomena to the worldwide trends in the prevalence of raised blood pressure. Methods: We pooled 1018 population-based studies with blood pressure measurements on 88.6 million participants from 1985 to 2016. We first calculated mean systolic blood pressure (SBP), mean diastolic blood pressure (DBP) and prevalence of raised blood pressure by sex and 10-year age group from 20-29 years to 70-79 years in each study, taking into account complex survey design and survey sample weights, where relevant. We used a linear mixed effect model to quantify the association between (probittransformed) prevalence of raised blood pressure and age-group- and sex-specific mean blood pressure. We calculated the contributions of change in mean SBP and DBP, and of change in the prevalence-mean association, to the change in prevalence of raised blood pressure. Results: In 2005-16, at the same level of population mean SBP and DBP, men and women in South Asia and in Central Asia, the Middle East and North Africa would have the highest prevalence of raised blood pressure, and men and women in the highincome Asia Pacific and high-income Western regions would have the lowest. In most region-sex-age groups where the prevalence of raised blood pressure declined, one half or more of the decline was due to the decline in mean blood pressure. Where prevalence of raised blood pressure has increased, the change was entirely driven by increasing mean blood pressure, offset partly by the change in the prevalence-mean association. Conclusions: Change in mean blood pressure is the main driver of the worldwide change in the prevalence of raised blood pressure, but change in the high-blood-pressure tail of the distribution has also contributed to the change in prevalence, especially in older age groups

    A multi-country test of brief reappraisal interventions on emotions during the COVID-19 pandemic.

    The COVID-19 pandemic has increased negative emotions and decreased positive emotions globally. Left unchecked, these emotional changes might have a wide array of adverse impacts. To reduce negative emotions and increase positive emotions, we tested the effectiveness of reappraisal, an emotion-regulation strategy that modifies how one thinks about a situation. Participants from 87 countries and regions (n = 21,644) were randomly assigned to one of two brief reappraisal interventions (reconstrual or repurposing) or one of two control conditions (active or passive). Results revealed that both reappraisal interventions (vesus both control conditions) consistently reduced negative emotions and increased positive emotions across different measures. Reconstrual and repurposing interventions had similar effects. Importantly, planned exploratory analyses indicated that reappraisal interventions did not reduce intentions to practice preventive health behaviours. The findings demonstrate the viability of creating scalable, low-cost interventions for use around the world
