Item type:Publication, Between disinterest and inequality: Perceptions of brokers and actors involved about the implementation of forest policies at the subnational level(Universidad de los Andes, Colombia, 2024-07-01)Objective/context: In 2020, Ucayali was the Peruvian region with the highest loss of Amazonian forest (47,267 hectares). Measures have been taken regarding climate commitments and environmental governance, but the results continue without notoriety, and mitigation actions are limited. From a subnational approach, the article seeks to analyze the perceptions of brokers and actors involved about the implementation of forest policies in the Ucayali region. Methodology: Based on a qualitative strategy that included semi-structured interviews and a co-construction workshop to evidence the perceptions of the actors involved, with direct knowledge of the territory and implementation, and intermediary agents (brokers), the latter with the capacity to influence the decisions made regarding the formulation of action plans. Conclusions: The results demonstrate the existence of a structural difficulty in achieving short- or long-term change actions. There are institutional limitations but also a lack of support from civil society. Originality: Considering the type and limited number of studies on perceptions of climate change-oriented policies, the results obtained allow for generating relevant evidence for policy formulation processes and articulation between different levels of government. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Social Distance, Ethics, and Engagement with Social Networks: How Do They Interact?(Taylor & Francis, 2023-12-17)Social distance often motivates consumers to increase their interactions through social networking sites. This study identifies antecedents of consumer brand usage and brand connection of SNSs, under the influence of consumer perceived ethics (CPE), during the COVID pandemic and afterward (N = 308). The proposed model was tested using partial least squares-structural equation modeling with AMOS 23. In both periods, this study shows CPE consistently affects consumer engagement and involvement. The results demonstrate that in social isolation, affective engagement has higher relevance to driving Self-Brand Connection (SBC) among consumers and SNSs. On the other hand, CPE was demonstrated to provide consistent and significant effects in both periods, showing its stable capacity to impact brand involvement, engagement, use, and self-connection. In the context of the pandemic, this study demonstrates the consistent effects of CPE and other impacts of Consumer Brand Engagement (CBE) on brand usage and self-connection of SNSs. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Emancipation Really Matters: Why Family Firms Might Be a Preferable Choice for Syrian Refugees in Egypt? An Exploratory Study(Wiley, 2023-09-23)This study explores the relations within the current broader literature on migration and entrepreneurship and specifically investigates the extent to which Syrian refugees in Egypt prefer to establish family businesses and why. A qualitative research method is employed by conducting semi‐structured interviews with 45 Syrian partner/managers of micro, small and medium‐sized family businesses in Egypt. Thematic analysis was used to determine the main ideas in the interview transcripts. Syrian refugees in Egypt were found to prefer to establish family businesses. And the following were considered to be the main antecedents of such preference: action resources (economic challenges and poor salaries in the host country; refugee financial insolvency; refugees' limited social network), emancipation values (refugees' trust in working with each other; refugees' intention to pay back the support/gratitude perceived from the host country) and civic entitlement (governmental support to family businesses). - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Towards co-produced water management pathways to counteract deteriorating mountain water quality in the deglaciating Peruvian Andes(Taylor & Francis, 2026-01-01)Glacier retreat has led to widespread downstream impacts increasing water insecurity. A growing number of catchments in the deglaciating Peruvian Andes is currently exposed to natural acid rock drainage which severely affects human and ecosystem health, and therefore urgently requires sustainable solutions. Yet, this challenging endeavour has barely been addressed in science and policy. We showcase the deglaciating Negro river catchment (Cordillera Blanca, Peru), to disentangle the complex spatiotemporal interactions between specific catchment characteristics, glacier retreat, water quality and local water governance. Therefore, in-situ measurements of water quality in rivers and wetlands are analysed against multidecadal glacier retreat. Our results reveal high acidity in glaciated subcatchments while deglaciated subcatchments indicate improved drinking water conditions, with considerable seasonal variability in rivers and wetlands. The results are jointly analysed with local villagers and decision-makers under a co-produced framework that supports strategies for adaptive management and policy to increase long-term mountain water security.
