Honduras: A Territorial Approach to Development

Honduras: A Territorial Approach to Development presents an innovative approach to address the development challenges of the country. The document first describes the main challenges to inclusive development in Honduras identified by IDB technical staff, which results in a proposal for a Spatial Economic Strategy (SES) developed with the company GeoAdaptive LLC. The Strategy extends across and connects the entire territory, taking advantage of sectoral synergies for enhancing productivity and breaking the established inequality and poverty cycles. This innovative approach seeks to break away from the traditional sector-approach and proposes comprehensive interventions that would enable key stakeholders to maximize synergies and the impact of their actions.

Honduras: Un enfoque territorial para el desarrollo

Honduras: Un enfoque territorial para el desarrollo presenta un enfoque distinto de cómo enfrentar los retos de desarrollo del país. El documento inicia con los principales retos al desarrollo inclusivo en Honduras identificados por el personal técnico del BID, lo que deriva en una propuesta de Estrategia Económica Espacial (EEE) desarrollada en conjunto con la empresa GeoAdaptive LLC. La Estrategia abarca al territorio hondureño en su totalidad, aprovechando sinergias sectoriales para aumentar la productividad y romper con los círculos de pobreza y desigualdad con un enfoque geográfico innovador. Este busca expandir el modelo productivo tradicional a más áreas geográficas, lo que derivaría en un cambio estructural para las oportunidades a las que pueden acceder la población. Este nuevo enfoque tiene como eje fundamental la creación de valor del sector privado y maximiza las posibles sinergias con las acciones del sector público.

Adapting Gender

Adapting Gender offers a cogent introduction to Mexico's film industry, the history of women's filmmaking in Mexico, a new approach to adaptation as a potential feminist strategy, and a cultural history of generational changes in Mexico. Ilana Dann Luna examines how adapted films have the potential to subvert not only the intentions of the source text, but how they can also interrupt the hegemony of gender stereotypes in a broader socio-political context. Luna follows the industrial shifts that began with Salinas de Gortari's presidency, which made the long 1990s the precise moment in which subversive filmmakers, particularly women, were able to participate more fully in the industry and por...
