El departamento de Sucre cuenta con cuenta con 272 ha establecidas con caña panelera, de las cuales 50 ha se encuentran establecidas en el municipio de La Unión, beneficiando a 20 familias productoras. Sin embargo, la competitividad de la agroindustria panelera en el municipio es limitada, básicamente por la falta de transferencia de tecnología en cuanto a planes manejo agronómico, la ausencia de estudios que detallen las dimensiones técnicas, de mercado, ambientales y sociales en las cuales se debe enmarcar la agroindustria panelera y orientar su desarrollo. Ante lo anteriormente expuesto, la presente investigación se propuso fortalecer la agroindustria panelera del municipio de La Unión, Sucre, a través de investigación participativa con la comunidad, orientada a la mejora de los sistemas productivos a través de la realización de estudios técnicos, de mercado y sociales que sirvan de guía para orientar los procesos de la agroindustria panelera del municipio a ser más eficientes y sostenibles.

A su vez, es una expresión del compromiso humano de este grupo de profesores y estudiantes con su región, con el dolor y la resistencia de las mujeres de Los Montes de María, territorio emblemático del coraje y la dignidad de un pueblo que aprendió a sobreponerse al terror con el prodigio de su capacidad creativa, de su cultura, de su permanente ejercicio de asociación y solidaridad y de mantener viva la esperanza.

Can an exiled writer ever really go home again? What of the writers of Argentina, Uruguay, and Chile, whose status as exiles in the 1970s and 1980s largely defined their identities and subject matter? After Exile takes a critical look at these writers, at the effect of exile on their work, and at the complexities of homecoming -- a fraught possibility when democracy was restored to each of these countries. Both famous and lesser known writers people this story of dislocation and relocation, among them Jose Donoso, Ana Vasquez, Luisa Valenzuela, Cristina Peri Rossi, and Mario Benedetti. In their work -- and their predicament -- Amy K. Kaminsky considers the representation of both physical upr...
This book reports on fundamental research, cutting-edge technologies and industrially-relevant applications in biomedical engineering. It covers methods for analysis, modeling and simulation of biological systems, reporting on the development and design of advanced biosensors, nanoparticles and wearable devices. It covers applications in disease monitoring and therapy, tissue engineering, sport and rehabilitation, and telehealth. It also reports on engineering methods for improving and monitoring medical service, and on advanced robotic applications. Gathering the proceedings of the XLV Congreso Nacional de Ingeniería Biomédica (CNIB2022), organised by the Mexican Society of Biomedical Engineering, this book offers a timely snapshot on technologies and methods in bioengineering, and on challenges related to their practical implementation in the health sector.
Roving vigilantes, fear-mongering politicians, hysterical pundits, and the looming shadow of a seven hundred-mile-long fence: the US–Mexican border is one of the most complex and dynamic areas on the planet today. Hyperborder provides the most nuanced portrait yet of this dynamic region. Author Fernando Romero presents a multidisciplinary perspective informed by interviews with numerous academics, researchers, and organizations. Provocatively designed in the style of other kinetic large-scale studies like Rem Koolhaas's Content and Bruce Mau’s Massive Change, Hyperborder is an exhaustively researched report from the front lines of the border debate.
