Book Description
La pandemia de la COVID-19 ha tenido un gran impacto sobre la vida de las personas. Desde el punto de vista del desarrollo local, la lucha contra el virus y la recuperación económica son temas prioritarios para mantener el nivel de vida y reducir, en lo posible, el riesgo de exclusión de la población más vulnerable. Ante esta situación de emergencia, el objetivo general del presente estudio consiste en detectar y analizar las iniciativas que se han puesto en marcha en la provincia de Valencia en tres ámbitos concretos: teletrabajo y acceso a las tecnologías de la información y comunicación, turismo e iniciativas solidarias. El propósito es ofrecer un diagnóstico territorializado que, además, permita documentar ejemplos de buenas prácticas que sirvan de referencia para otros organismos o entidades y que se pueda utilizar para establecer unas líneas estratégicas de acción futura para los ayuntamientos y para la Diputación de Valencia.

Cradle to Cradle
Author: William McDonough
Publisher: North Point Press
ISBN: 1429973846
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 207
Book Description
A manifesto for a radically different philosophy and practice of manufacture and environmentalism "Reduce, reuse, recycle" urge environmentalists; in other words, do more with less in order to minimize damage. But as this provocative, visionary book argues, this approach perpetuates a one-way, "cradle to grave" manufacturing model that dates to the Industrial Revolution and casts off as much as 90 percent of the materials it uses as waste, much of it toxic. Why not challenge the notion that human industry must inevitably damage the natural world? In fact, why not take nature itself as our model? A tree produces thousands of blossoms in order to create another tree, yet we do not consider its abundance wasteful but safe, beautiful, and highly effective; hence, "waste equals food" is the first principle the book sets forth. Products might be designed so that, after their useful life, they provide nourishment for something new-either as "biological nutrients" that safely re-enter the environment or as "technical nutrients" that circulate within closed-loop industrial cycles, without being "downcycled" into low-grade uses (as most "recyclables" now are). Elaborating their principles from experience (re)designing everything from carpeting to corporate campuses, William McDonough and Michael Braungart make an exciting and viable case for change.

Discrimination based on body shape and size remains commonplace in today's society.

Women with Disabilities as Agents of Peace, Change and Rights
Author: Karen Soldatic
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1351618970
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 133
Book Description
Drawing on rich empirical work emerging from core conflict regions within the island nation of Sri Lanka, this book illustrates the critical role that women with disabilities play in post-armed conflict rebuilding and development. This pathbreaking book shows the critical role that women with disabilities play in post-armed conflict rebuilding and development. Through offering a rare yet important insight into the processes of gendered-disability advocacy activation within the post-conflict environment, it provides a unique counter narrative to the powerful images, symbols and discourses that too frequently perpetuate disabled women’s so-called need for paternalistic forms of care. Rather than being the mere recipients of aid and help, the narratives of women with disabilities reveal the generative praxis of social solidarity and cohesion, progressed via their nascent collective practices of gendered-disability advocacy. It will be of interest to academics and students working in the fields of disability studies, gender studies, post-conflict studies, peace studies and social work.

European Psychiatric/Mental Health Nursing in the 21st Century
Author: José Carlos Santos
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 3319317725
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 581
Book Description
This groundbreaking first volume of the Series has a number of features that set it apart from other books on this subject: Firstly, it focuses on interpersonal, humanistic and ecological views and approaches to P/MH nursing. Secondly, it highlights patient/client-centered approaches and mental-health-service user involvement. Lastly, it is a genuinely European P/MH nursing textbook – the first of its kind – largely written by mental health scholars from Europe, although it also includes contributions from North America and Australia/New Zealand. Focusing on clinical/practical issues, theory and empirical findings, it adopts an evidence-based or evidence-informed approach. Each contribution presents the state-of-the-art of P/MH nursing in Europe so that it can be transferred to and implemented by P/MH nurses and the broader mental health care community around the globe. As such, it will be the first genuinely 21st century European Psychiatric Mental Health Nursing book.
