This book was released on 2024-03-13 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Actualmente, los recursos se ejecutan a través de proyectos que deben estar armonizados con los planes y programas a nivel territorial, que tienen ahora los Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible (ODS) en la mira. Se espera que los proyectos de desarrollo permitan la participación de los distintos actores involucrados con el problema que se desea resolver y de las instituciones y organizaciones que apoyan la solución de ese tipo de problemas. Igualmente, los proyectos deben ser sostenibles social, económica y ambientalmente, y respetar los ecosistemas naturales. Deben promover el enfoque de género que incluye tanto a los hombres como a las mujeres y el enfoque de pobreza que permite a los más vulnerables obtener beneficios del desarrollo esperado. Uno de los mayores desafíos para los entes financiadores es identificar aquellos proyectos que permitan hacer un seguimiento de las actividades y productos, así como de los recursos económicos invertidos y el tiempo de ejecución. Por otra parte, los usuarios finales de productos y resultados deben tener las herramientas para hacer la veeduría ciudadana en todo el ciclo de los proyectos de desarrollo. Asimismo, lo ideal es que el equipo gestor del proyecto facilite la participación de actores gubernamentales, comunitarios, académicos (si es posible) y privados, y de personas con distintas formaciones educativas, además de los actores involucrados en la situación. Este libro propone un ciclo del proyecto de desarrollo participativo, en el que se promuevan todos los principios mencionados anteriormente. Es producto de la larga experiencia de los autores en la gestión de proyectos de investigación para el desarrollo ejecutados en el Instituto Cinara de la Universidad del Valle. El público esperado de este libro son las comunidades organizadas y los profesionales que apoyan la gestión de proyectos de desarrollo.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El principal mérito de este libro de Nazareno Castillo Marín es el de explicar de una manera sencilla y amena, pero basado en datos y estadísticas sólidas, las cuestiones fundamentales que abordan los Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible de la Agenda 2030 y las interrelaciones que los determinan y conectan. El éxito de esta Agenda, dependerá de un trabajo interdisciplinario de investigadores y científicos, y de dirigentes y líderes que estén a la altura de las circunstancias. Pero también de muchos que sean difusores de esta nueva oportunidad que se le presenta a la humanidad y nos sensibilicen a todos nosotros de su perentoriedad. Por eso bienvenidos textos como que el aquí presentado (Luis Di Pietro Paolo -Coordinador Proyecto ODS -Consejo Nacional de Coordinación de Políticas Sociales - Argentina).Los ODS son una herramienta fundamental de planificación para los países que quieran avanzar en un sendero de desarrollo económico, social y ambiental inclusivo y sostenible. Ello implica poner al desarrollo humano, la equidad social y la salud ambiental en el centro de la agenda pública. Desde su gestación se estableció la necesidad de implementar mecanismos de medición y seguimiento de los mismos. Si bien la responsabilidad de ello la tiene cada gobierno, teniendo en cuenta sus prioridades y particularidades, el sistema de Naciones Unidas se comprometió a apoyarlos, y estableció una lista de indicadores globales que deberán complementar los sistemas de medición regional y nacional. Generar información pública veraz, clara, concreta y accesible facilitará la rendición de cuentas y la respuesta de la sociedad sobre los avances en cada uno de los objetivos de desarrollo sostenible. Está aquí quizás la principal virtud de esta publicación, que permite al lector conocer y entender de una manera simple indicadores para la medición de una diversidad de problemáticas, incluyendo, la pobreza, la desigualdad, el crecimiento económico, el hambre, el desempleo, el estrés hídrico y las emisiones de gases efecto invernadero.

Con esta obra se espera dar a conocer algunas de las acciones necesarias para el cumplimiento de los ODS.
Download or read book University and School Collaborations During a Pandemic written by Fernando M. Reimers and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on twenty case studies of universities worldwide, and on a survey administered to leaders in 101 universities, this open access book shows that, amidst the significant challenges caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, universities found ways to engage with schools to support them in sustaining educational opportunity. In doing so, they generated considerable innovation, which reinforced the integration of the research and outreach functions of the university. The evidence suggests that universities are indeed open systems, in interaction with their environment, able to discover changes that can influence them and to change in response to those changes. They are also able, in the success of their efforts to mitigate the educational impact of the pandemic, to create better futures, as the result of the innovations they can generate. This challenges the view of universities as "ivory towers" being isolated from the surrounding environment and detached from local problems. As they reached out to schools, universities not only generated clear and valuable innovations to sustain educational opportunity and to improve it, this process also contributed to transform internal university processes in ways that enhanced their own ability to deliver on the third mission of outreach
Download or read book What is Tactical Periodization written by Xavier Tamarit and published by . This book was released on 2015-04-12 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally developed by Vitor Frade, at the University of Porto, Tactical Periodization is a methodology - popularized by coaches such as Jose Mourinho and Andre Villas Boas - that trains soccer players through a logical process that focuses on four moments of the game. These four moments are: Offensive Organisation, the Transition from Defence to Attack, Defensive Organisation, and the Transition from Attack to Defence. Through Tactical Periodization, the aim is to develop players to rapidly alter their on-field behaviours according to the tactical context of the match, and what actually unfolds in front of them. In turn, every training exercise focuses on at least one of the four moments, and always the coach's tactical game model of how he wants his team to play. In doing so, football players prepare and learn how best to conquer the often unpredictable matches that they encounter competitively. This book is the English language translation of the acclaimed book Periodizacion Tactica by world-renowned coach and sports science specialist Xavier Tamarit. *Important Note: What is Tactical Periodization is the translation of an academic book that examines Tactical Periodization's underlying philosophies, methodologies, and application. It covers areas such as systemic thinking, football as a complex phenomenon, and how the 'sum is greater than its parts'; it does not contain practical how-tos or drills. Candidly, it is not an 'easy' book to read, and requires a certain level of effort and concentration by the reader. However, for those who stick with it, the book provides a rewarding and high value resource for the modern football coach who wishes to understand exactly how Tactical Periodization developed, what it means for the sport, and how it can influence his or her coaching. Summary sections have been added to each original chapter to offer additional insight."

Download or read book Constructing a Sociology of Translation written by Michaela Wolf and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 2007 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The view of translation as a socially regulated activity has opened up a broad field of research in the last few years. This volume deals with central questions of the new domain and aims to contribute to the conceptualisation of a general sociology of translation. Interdisciplinary in approach, it discusses the role of major representatives of sociology like Pierre Bourdieu, Bruno Latour, Bernard Lahire, Anthony Giddens or Niklas Luhmann in establishing a theoretical framework for a sociology of translation. Drawing on methodologies from sociology and integrating them into translation studies, the book questions some of the established categories in this discipline and calls for a redefinition of long-assumed principles. The contributions show the social involvement of translation in various fields and focus especially on the translator s position in an emerging sociology of translation, Bourdieu s influence in conceptualising this new sub-discipline, methodological questions and a sociologically oriented meta-discussion of translation studies.

Download or read book Sociocultural Aspects of Translating and Interpreting written by Anthony Pym and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 2006-01-01 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Translation Studies has recently been searching for connections with Cultural Studies and Sociology. This volume brings together a range of ways in which the disciplines can be related, particularly with respect to research methodologies. The key aspects covered are the agents behind translation, the social histories revealed by translations, the perceived roles and values of translators in social contexts, the hidden power relations structuring publication contexts, and the need to review basic concepts of the way social and cultural systems work. Special importance is placed on Community Interpreting as a field of social complexity, the lessons of which can be applied in many other areas. The volume studies translators and interpreters working in a wide range of contexts, ranging from censorship in East Germany to English translations in Gujarat. Major contributions are made by Agnès Whitfield, Daniel Gagnon, Franz Pöchhacker, Michaela Wolf, Pekka Kujamäki and Rita Kothari, with an extensive introduction on methodology by Anthony Pym.
Download or read book Literary Translator Studies written by Klaus Kaindl and published by John Benjamins Publishing Company. This book was released on 2021-04-15 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume extends and deepens our understanding of Translator Studies by charting new territory in terms of theory, methods and concepts. The focus is on literary translators, their roles, identities, and personalities. The book introduces pertinent translator-centered approaches in four sections: historical-biographical studies, social-scientific and process-oriented methods, and approaches that use paratexts or translations to study literary translators. Drawing on a variety of concepts, such as identity, role, self, posture, habitus, and voice, the various chapters showcase forgotten literary translators and shed new light on some well-known figures; they examine literary translators not as functioning units but as human beings in their uniqueness. Literary Translator Studies as a subdiscipline of Translation Studies demonstrates how exploring the cultural, social, psychological, and cognitive facets of translatorial subjects contributes to a holistic understanding of translation.

Download or read book Nation Language and the Ethics of Translation written by Sandra Bermann and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2005-07-25 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years, scholarship on translation has moved well beyond the technicalities of converting one language into another and beyond conventional translation theory. With new technologies blurring distinctions between "the original" and its reproductions, and with globalization redefining national and cultural boundaries, "translation" is now emerging as a reformulated subject of lively, interdisciplinary debate. Nation, Language, and the Ethics of Translation enters the heart of this debate. It covers an exceptional range of topics, from simultaneous translation to legal theory, from the language of exile to the language of new nations, from the press to the cinema; and cultures and languages from contemporary Bengal to ancient Japan, from translations of Homer to the work of Don DeLillo. All twenty-two essays, by leading voices including Gayatri Spivak and the late Edward Said, are provocative and persuasive. The book's four sections--"Translation as Medium and across Media," "The Ethics of Translation," "Translation and Difference," and "Beyond the Nation"--together provide a comprehensive view of current thinking on nationality and translation, one that will be widely consulted for years to come. The contributors are Jonathan E. Abel, Emily Apter, Sandra Bermann, Vilashini Cooppan, Stanley Corngold, David Damrosch, Robert Eaglestone, Stathis Gourgouris, Pierre Legrand, Jacques Lezra, Françoise Lionnet, Sylvia Molloy, Yopie Prins, Edward Said, Azade Seyhan, Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak, Henry Staten, Lawrence Venuti, Lynn Visson, Gauri Viswanathan, Samuel Weber, and Michael Wood.
Download or read book Machu Picchu written by Johan Reinhard and published by Cotsen Institute of Archaeology Press. This book was released on 2007-12-31 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Machu Picchu, recently voted one of the New Wonders of the World, is one of the world's most famous archaeological sites, yet it remains a mystery. Even the most basic questions are still unanswered: What was its meaning and why was it built in such a difficult location? Renowned explorer Johan Reinhard attempts to answer such elusive questions from the perspectives of sacred landscape and archaeoastronomy. Using information gathered from historical, archaeological, and ethnographical sources, Reinhard demonstrates how the site is situated in the center of sacred mountains and associated with a sacred river, which is in turn symbolically linked with the sun's passage. Taken together, these features meant that Machu Picchu formed a cosmological, hydrological, and sacred geological center for a vast region.
Download or read book Inca Land written by Hiram Bingham and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2017-08-26 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The builders were not in search of fields. There is so little arable land here that every square yard of earth had to be terraced in order to provide food for the inhabitants. They were not looking for comfort or convenience. Safety was their primary consideration. They were sufficiently civilized to practice intensive agriculture, sufficiently skillful to equal the best masonry the world has ever seen, sufficiently ingenious to make delicate bronzes, and sufficiently advanced in art to realize the beauty of simplicity. What could have induced such a people to select this remote fastness of the Andes, with all its disadvantages, as the site for their capital, unless they were fleeing from powerful enemies."
Download or read book Revisiting the Interpreter s Role written by Claudia Angelelli and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 2004 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Through the development of a valid and reliable instrument, this book sets out to study the role that interpreters play in the various settings where they work, i.e. the courts, the hospitals, business meetings, international conferences, and schools. It presents interpreters' perceptions and beliefs about their work as well as statements of their behaviors about their practice. For the first time, the administration and results of a survey administered across languages in Canada, Mexico and the United States offer the reader a glimpse of the interpreters' views in their own words. It also discusses the tension between professional ideology and the reality of interpreters at work. This book has implications for the theory and practice of interpreting across settings.
