This book was released on 1998 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El programa, objeto de este libro, está dirigido principalmente a todos los profesionales de las actividades físicas y el deporte (profesores, instructores, monitores, animadores); tanto a los que trabajan actualmente como a los que pretendan empezar a trabajar con niños y adolescentes, ya sea en el ámbito escolar (primaria y secundaria, pudiéndose introducir en el currículum común y variable) como en el extraescolar (gimnasios, centros deportivos, escuelas deportivas escolares organizadas por asociaciones de madres y padres dentro de los colegios e institutos). El libro está dividido en tres partes o capítulos: En el primer capítulo, los autores exponen de forma resumida la evolución física y psicológica de los niños y adolescentes, analizando algunos de los factores que pueden incidir en dicho desarrollo, como son la nutrición y la actividad física. Citan diferentes experiencias y teorías de especialistas de todo el mundo, en cuanto a la aplicación de programas de actividades físicas y/o fitness y los ejercicios más adecuados a estas edades. En el segundo capítulo, es donde presentan el programa diver-fit, creado en base a la teoría y la experiencia acumulada por los autores en la práctica diaria, realizada con niños y adolescentes. Las sesiones están construidas con una mezcla de ejercicios sencillos y complejos, ajustados a las posibilidades motrices reales de los alumnos. Estas sesiones, al trabajar por niveles, pueden ser seguidas por la gran mayoría de niños y adolescentes. El tercer capítulo está destinado a la competición, puesto que los niños a estas edades son muy competitivos y, a veces, se hace necesario aplicarla como un medio de motivación. Los autores hacen una reflexión sobre las ventajas e inconvenientes de aplicarla y explican cómo la incluyen en el programa diver-fit. Exponen también, pero sólo para púberes y adolescentes, aquellos sistemas y métodos de entrenamiento más idóneos para estas edades, que pueden servir para mejorar su condición física general, pero evitando caer en la especialización precoz. Este libro pretende ser, sobre todo, una herramienta de trabajo para todo profesional que sienta la inquietud de experimentar diferentes métodos de trabajo dentro de las actividades físicas para niños y adolescentes. Y, pretende servir, también, como una referencia bibliográfica para aquellos que se sientan con ánimos de crear nuevos programas o propuestas que ayuden a enriquecer el campo de las actividades físicas para niños y adolescentes.

Download or read book Care for Sale written by Ana P. Gutierrez Garza and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2019 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In homes and brothels around the world, migrant women are selling a unique commodity: care. Care for Sale is an in-depth ethnography of a group of middle-class women from Latin America who exchange care and intimacy for money while working as domestic and sex workers in London. Illuminating the complexities of care work, the book offers a detailed study of women's lives and working conditions. It considers how their experience of migration and intimate labor is one of rupture that both enables and forces them to gradually reconstitute themselves, in their host cities, as people quite distinct from their normal selves back home. Care for Sale illustrates the connections and the factors that contribute to migrant women choosing either domestic or sex work, including their concerns about money and morality. It moves away from a narrow focus on migration and labor to focus instead on the creation and (re)creation of persons; and on the ways in which people fashion themselves and cultivate difference, inequality, or commonality as part of their self-making projects. By doing this, the book shows migrants not only as economic actors, but also as individuals involved in an intimate process that constantly modifies their sense of morality and personhood. Care for Sale is a volume in the series ISSUES OF GLOBALIZATION: CASE STUDIES IN CONTEMPORARY ANTHROPOLOGY, which examines the experiences of individual communities in our contemporary world. Each volume offers a brief and engaging exploration of a particular issue arising from globalization and its cultural, political, and economic effects on certain peoples or groups.

Download or read book The Responsibility to Protect written by Alex J. Bellamy and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2018-12-05 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2005, the international community made a landmark commitment to prevent mass atrocities by unanimously adopting the UN’s “Responsibility to Protect” (R2P) principle. As often as not, however, R2P has failed to translate into decisive action. Why does this gap persist between the world’s normative pledges to R2P and its ability to make it a daily lived reality? In this new book, leading global authorities on humanitarian protection Alex Bellamy and Edward Luck offer a probing and in-depth response to this fundamental question, calling for a more comprehensive approach to the practice of R2P – one that moves beyond states and the UN to include the full range of actors that play a role in protecting vulnerable populations. Drawing on cases from the Middle East to sub-Saharan Africa and Southeast Asia, they examine the forces and conditions that produce atrocity crimes and the challenge of responding to them quickly and effectively. Ultimately, they advocate both for emergency policies to temporarily stop carnage and for policies leading to sustainable change within societies and governments. Only by introducing these additional elements to the R2P toolkit will the failures associated with humanitarian crises like Syria and Libya become a thing of the past.

This framework is robust and forward-looking, enabling effective sharing of insights and design patterns between disciplines that weren’t possible before.

Download or read book Community Programs to Promote Youth Development written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2002-02-12 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After-school programs, scout groups, community service activities, religious youth groups, and other community-based activities have long been thought to play a key role in the lives of adolescents. But what do we know about the role of such programs for today's adolescents? How can we ensure that programs are designed to successfully meet young people's developmental needs and help them become healthy, happy, and productive adults? Community Programs to Promote Youth Development explores these questions, focusing on essential elements of adolescent well-being and healthy development. It offers recommendations for policy, practice, and research to ensure that programs are well designed to meet young people's developmental needs. The book also discusses the features of programs that can contribute to a successful transition from adolescence to adulthood. It examines what we know about the current landscape of youth development programs for America's youth, as well as how these programs are meeting their diverse needs. Recognizing the importance of adolescence as a period of transition to adulthood, Community Programs to Promote Youth Development offers authoritative guidance to policy makers, practitioners, researchers, and other key stakeholders on the role of youth development programs to promote the healthy development and well-being of the nation's youth.
Download or read book Gender Development and Globalization written by Lourdes Beneria and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-07-24 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gender, Development, and Globalization is the leading primer on global feminist economics and development. Lourdes Benería, a pioneer in the field of feminist economics, is joined in this second edition by Gunseli Berik and Maria Floro to update the text to reflect the major theoretical, empirical, and methodological contributions and global developments in the last decade. Its interdisciplinary investigation remains accessible to a broad audience interested in an analytical treatment of the impact of globalization processes on development and wellbeing in general and on social and gender equality in particular. The revision will continue to provide a wide-ranging discussion of the strategies and policies that hold the most promise in promoting equitable and sustainable development. The authors make the case for feminist economics as a useful framework to address major contemporary global challenges, such as inequalities between the global South and North as well as within single countries; persistent poverty; and increasing vulnerability to financial crises, food crises, and climate change. The authors’ approach is grounded in the intellectual current of feminism and human development, drawing on Amartya Sen’s capability approach and focused on the importance of the care economy, increasing pressures faced by women, and the failures of neoliberal reforms to bring about sustainable development, reduction in poverty, inequality, and vulnerability to economic crisis.
