    El presente trabajo consiste en la sistematización de la experiencia profesional ejecutada en el programa nacional de asistencia alimentaria – PRONAA, en el cual se desarrolló el programa integral de nutrición (PIN) - sub programa pre escolar durante los años 2008 – 2011. El objetivo es: compartir las experiencias del ejercicio profesional relacionadas con la gestión del pin en un ámbito de diez provincias de atención de la región Cajamarca y una de la región de la libertad. Se obtuvo como resultados: la articulación del programa integral de nutrición - pin con la producción agraria local. Atendiéndose con alimentos en el período 2008 – 2011 a un promedio de 33,108 niños de 3 a 5 años de edad en 1,384 instituciones educativas del nivel inicial y programas no escolarizados del nivel inicial (PRONOEIS), ubicados en el 1, 2 quintil de pobreza y en el 3 quintil considerando bolsones de desnutrición crónica y asistencia escolar. La utilización de una metodología basada en el respeto a su cultura y ciudadanía, permitió un progresivo empoderamiento de docentes, padres de familia y autoridades para una vigilancia asertiva y en equipo del programa social, evidenciado en el cambio de prácticas de nutrición, normas de higiene y manipulación de alimentos.Tesi

    A Characterization of European Collective Action Initiatives and Their Role as Enablers of Citizens’ Participation in the Energy Transition

    This paper provides novel additional evidence on the characteristics of Collective Action Initiatives (CAIs), investigating their role within the European energy sector. It analyses and presents results of a survey administered in six European countries: the Netherlands, Belgium, Italy, Poland, Estonia, and Spain. CAIs are studied in light of four key dimensions, those being their creation dynamics, the way they are organized, financed, and the activities they undertake. The results presented are also interpreted to reflect on their role as drivers of social innovation (SI) within energy transition in Europe. The analysis shows that the contribution of CAIs to the energy transition has a much wider scope than the development of energy projects and provision of energy services. CAIs are intrinsically socially innovative models of implementation as characterised by a strong level of citizen involvement and participation. Moreover, they have a potential multi-level role in the energy transition, from the technological and social perspectives. Indeed, alongside traditional energy activities, our results show that CAIs are evolving and expanding towards socially innovative activities, raising awareness on environmental issues, promoting citizens’ mobilization, and fostering social inclusion.This research was funded by the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No 837722, project COMETS (COllective action Models for Energy Transition and Social Innovation)

    Exploring Institutional and Socio-Economic Settings for the Development of Energy Communities in Europe

    Energy communities (ECs), intended as collective action initiatives in the energy field involving citizens’ participation, have been gaining relevance for the past decades as an alternative way to organize the energy chain to challenge the incumbent system. With Europe’s recently adopted Clean Energy Package, ECs found a formal recognition by the European Union as potential actors of the transition of the energy system towards a wider and more decentralized use of renewable sources. Although the potential role of ECs in the transition is therefore hardly questionable, a thorough comprehension of the enabling factors that might foster their diffusion and scaling up is still lacking. Through a comparative analysis of the evolutionary trajectories in six EU countries regarding their energy systems, their regulatory frameworks and their historical evolution of ECs, namely through the example of cooperative models, this paper aims at providing some preliminary evidence about the factors and dynamics that seem to have played, and may play, a role in hampering or facilitating EC model diffusion. Attention is therefore specifically paid to three dimensions of analysis referring to: the energy mix and market structure; the institutional and policy landscape; the wider social attitudes towards environmental issues and cooperation among citizens. In addition to providing a wide comparison of different EU countries, the paper shows that the historical evolution pathways have to be carefully taken into account to understand what might trigger ECs exploitation in the EU.This research has received funding from the H2020 project COMETS—Collective Action Models for Energy Transition and Social Innovation (GA 837722
