Item type:Publication, ¿Educación ambiental o educación para el desarrollo sostenible? El sentido ético de la educación ambiental(Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú, 2023-07-25)Since the 1960s it has become clear that a development model focused on economic growth would erode environmental systems (through pollution, deforestation, soil degradation, climate change, loss of biodiversity, etc.) and exacerbate social conflicts (through violence, migration, poverty, food insecurity and other phenomena). As mechanisms to help reverse the damage and balance the relationship with nature, the United Nations formulated educational strategies aimed at harmonizing the relationships of human beings with the environment. Initially they spoke of environmental education and in later years education for sustainable development. This article reflects on the international perspective on issues such as development, sustainability, and environmental education to then dive into the concept of environmental education and its various interpretations. Furthermore, it enters the debate on “education for sustainable development” to bring out the most significant vicissitudes in the understanding of development. Finally, it addresses the importance of environmental education at school and underscores the relevance of ethics in the approach to that environmental education. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Agua y desarrollo. El caso del Proyecto Olmos Tinajones (Lambayeque, Perú)(Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú. Instituto de la Naturaleza, Tierra y Energía (INTE-PUCP), 2022)Since the early twentieth century, a developmentalist wave has attempted to mobilize both foreign aid and capital in Peru. Agriculture has been one of the sectors intervened to promote private investment through technological projects and institutional changes. An example of this phenomenon is the Olmos Tinajones Irrigation and Hidroenergy Project developed in the northern coast of Peru during the 1990s. In this article I outline two central arguments for the discussion on water and development: the institutional and physical transformations that occur in the water sector covertly encrypt asymmetries, and the discourse of the common good that legitimize huge hydraulic projects is eventually captured by corruption schemes that primarily benefit private companies. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Happiness, underdevelopment, and mental health in an Andean Indigenous community(Springer International Publishing, 2022-01-01)Evidence indicates that developed countries are not happier compared to middle-income countries. Furthermore, there are indicators of an unhappy, psychopathological overdeveloped society. The purpose of this study is to explore subjective well-being, mental health, and development in a small traditional Andean Peruvian village. An emic, bottom-up method was followed: ethnographical research, in-depth open-ended interviews, and psychometric scales were integrated. Mental health was explored thorough clinical assessment.High levels of happiness and low levels of psychopathology were found. Complex interactions between a balanced life satisfaction, low levels of satisfaction with development, landscape, strong social support, and intensive interactions with friends and family are discussed. This pattern can resemble the ancestral lifestyle, when the brain evolved to produce neurotransmitters of happiness while coping with survival and development challenges. Conversely, modern society and overdevelopment can activate depression and unhappiness. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Las cadenas como medio de vida(Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú, 2024-06-10)In a context of greater financing for conservation projects with a focus on territorial market development in the Peruvian Amazon, this research seeks to understand how the livelihoods of indigenous women producers can configure the dynamics of value chains through their trajectories. Therefore, the present study is based on the experience of the community of Shampuyacu, where the NGO Conservation International intervenes through agreements and conservation projects. Specifically, the case of the Bosque de las Nuwas Association and its tourism and infusion value chain initiatives will be analyzed. To analyze this case, we describe the dynamics of the chain, characterize the configuration of women’s livelihoods, and analyze how the association of women’s different assets and the trajectories they have in the value chain is interrelated to its dynamics. The qualitative and exploratory study finds that women’s trajectories differ by virtue of their social assets, mediated by ethnicity and relations between clans, the generalized context of gender violence, and support systems for care. Regarding human assets, the level of education can define the adoption of leadership in the chain or generate exclusion, causing conflicts. Finally, the use of natural assets such as family gardens can be an opportunity to scale up the chain, but the lack of coordination between actors doesn’t make it possible. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Environmental Provisions in Trade Agreements(2023-12-29)This article investigates the impact of environmental clauses in regional trade agreements on the international trade of CAN and MERCOSUR countries between 2001 and 2019. We use a gravity model estimated with the PPML estimator to analyze the relationship between environmental provisions in trade agreements and total exports. We find that the simple inclusion of environmental provisions does not have a significant effect on trade. However, the presence of a Preferential Trade Agreement (PTA) in the midst of compliance is associated with a negative and significant effect on total exports. This result is accentuated if the trade occurs in a South-North structure. This finding complements previous research and provides a more complete understanding of the impact of environmental clauses on international trade in the countries of the region. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Sowing Ideas: Foundations of Subjectivity and Development in Rural Contexts(Emerald Group Publishing Ltd., 2025-12-12)This introductory chapter has two specific objectives. First, to introduce the reader to the theoretical and conceptual framework addressed in this book. That is, why is it important to discuss subjectivity and development, concepts so relevant to psychology? And second, why focus on using these notions to analyze rural contexts? It concludes that the processes of subjectivation and psychological development have a richness and qualitative nature unique to rural contexts, which allows for a case for a Rural Psychology. Finally, the reader is presented with the structure and thematic organization of this volume to facilitate understanding of the various contributions found within.1
