This book was released on 2018-12-15 with total page 9080 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El Manual Esfera presenta un enfoque basado en principios para abordar la calidad y la rendición de cuentas en las respuestas humanitarias. Traduce a la práctica la convicción fundamental de Esfera de que todas las personas afectadas por desastres o conflictos tienen derecho a una vida con dignidad y a recibir asistencia humanitaria. La Carta Humanitaria es la piedra angular del Manual que, junto a los Principios de Protección y la Norma Humanitaria Esencial, establecen los fundamentos en que se basan todos los sectores de asistencia. Las normas técnicas establecen prioridades para dar una respuesta en cuatro sectores principales que salvan vidas: agua, saneamiento y promoción de la higiene; seguridad alimentaria y nutrición; alojamiento y asentamiento, y salud. Las normas mínimas medibles describen lo que es necesario lograr en una respuesta humanitaria para que las personas sobrevivan y restablezcan sus vidas y sus medios de vida de una forma que respete su voz y promueva su dignidad. Las acciones clave, indicadores y notas de orientación ofrecen diversas maneras de aplicar estas normas en distintos contextos. Todos los capítulos están vinculados y se refuerzan entre sí. La fuerza del Manual Esfera reside en su carácter universal y su capacidad para adaptarse a todos los contextos humanitarios. Goza de un amplio respaldo en el sector humanitario y, por ello, ofrece un lenguaje común para trabajar con todas las partes interesadas en aras de una mayor calidad y rendición de cuentas en los contextos humanitarios.

Book Circular Economy in Emergency Housing  Eco Efficient Prototype Design for Suba  i Refugee Camp in Turkey and Maicao Refugee Camp in Colombia

Download or read book Circular Economy in Emergency Housing Eco Efficient Prototype Design for Suba i Refugee Camp in Turkey and Maicao Refugee Camp in Colombia written by Pilar Mercader-Moyano and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-07-04 with total page 127 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years, there has been an upsurge in the number of forced displacements due to natural disasters, armed conflicts, and pandemics, which has favoured an increase in the number of temporary accommodations. Although the provision of shelter after an emergency situation is one of the priorities of humanitarian aid, the reality is that the conditions in which people live in a situation of forced displacement are absolutely precarious and overcrowded. Nowadays, this type of housing tends to have a short lifespan, deepening the environmental impact and the generation of waste. Likewise, added to this great problem is the linear economic system implemented worldwide, which also causes a high rate of waste. This investigation develops an eco-efficient design protocol that determines the basic premises in any emergency situation, therefore avoiding the precarious nature to which those in forced displacement are exposed. Moreover, the research investigates different constructive solutions that can respond to situations of natural catastrophes or humanitarian disasters where emergency housing is needed as well as the possible alternatives from the point of view of circular economy. Eco-efficient and environmentally correct solutions are sought, which can be adaptable to the different scenarios where emergency housing may be needed, thus creating a rapid, easy, functional, and environmentally correct architecture, adaptable to these types of situations. The study shows that the factors that characterize emergency architecture can be an example of where the issues around the sustainability factor are applied in a practical way. The main objectives of this study are to develop an eco-efficient design protocol which determines the basic premises in any emergency situation and to find eco-efficient and environmentally correct solutions, adaptable to different scenarios, which have similar climatic characteristics, and where emergency housing may be needed, thus creating a type of ephemeral architecture but sensitive to the user to whom it is intended and in accordance with the optimal conditions of habitability.

Book Individual and Community Responses to Trauma and Disaster

This book was released on 1995-08-24 with total page 436 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aims of this book are twofold: to improve understanding of the human experience of trauma, whether at the level of the individual or the community, and to help those who are its victims. The range of issues covered is impressive, from the biological basis of post-traumatic stress reactions, through practical strategies for prevention and treatment, to the psychosocial and fictional construction of terror.

This book will serve and inform clinicians, administrators and research workers in psychiatry, psychology, public health and related areas.

This book was released on 2001 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The North American Mosaic has four overarching features. First, it is, to the extent feasible, based on comparable information on the status and trends of major indicators of the state of the environment in Canada,Mexico, and the United States. Second, the report confirms that these three countries together make up an incredibly complex, dynamic, and interconnected ecosystem in which humans play a dominant and decisive role. Third, the report raises important and sometimes disquieting questions concerning the sustainability of some current trends. Finally, the report is a reminder that our economic, social, and physical well-being are utterly dependent on the life-sustaining services provided by nature. This report emphasizes the importance of developing mutually compatible economic, social, and environmental goals and policies across the three-country region.

Download or read book The Forbidden Religion written by Jose M. Herrou Aragon and published by José M. Herrou Aragón. This book was released on 2012-07-03 with total page 107 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gnosis means knowledge. But we are not referring to just any knowledge. Gnosis is knowledge which produces a great transformation in those who receive it. Knowledge capable of nothing less than waking up man and helping him to escape from the prison in which he finds himself. That is why Gnosis has been so persecuted throughout the course of history, because it is knowledge considered dangerous for the religious and political authorities who govern mankind from the shadows. Every time this religion, absolutely different from the rest, appears before man, the other religions unite to try to destroy or hide it again. Primordial Gnosis is the original Gnosis, true Gnosis, eternal Gnosis, Gnostic knowledge in its pure form. Due to multiple persecutions, Primordial Gnosis has been fragmented, distorted and hidden.

Download or read book Juan de la Rosa written by Nataniel Aguirre and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 1999-04-29 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Long considered a classic in Bolivia, Juan de la Rosa tells the story of a young boy's coming of age during the violent and tumultuous years of Bolivia's struggle for independence. Indeed, in this remarkable novel, Juan's search for his personal identity functions as an allegory of Bolivia's search for its identity as a nation. Set in the early 1800s, the novel is narrated by one of the last surviving Bolivian rebels, octogenarian Juan de la Rosa. Juan recreates his childhood in the rebellious town of Cochabamba, and with it a large cast of full bodied, Dickensian characters both heroic and malevolent. The larger cultural dislocations brought about by Bolivia's political upheaval are echoed in those experienced by Juan, whose mother's untimely death sets off a chain of unpredictable events that propel him into the fiery crucible of the South American Independence Movement. Outraged by Juan's outspokenness against Spanish rule and his awakening political consciousness, his loyalist guardians banish him to the countryside, where he witnesses firsthand the Spaniards' violent repression and rebels' valiant resistance that crystallize both his personal destiny and that of his country. In Sergio Gabriel Waisman's fluid translation, English readers have access to Juan de la Rosa for the very first time.
