Ética profesional del abogado

En primer lugar, el libro parte de la creencia de que a la vista de las restricciones que hay para tener una visión general desde el conocimiento académico local, pero también del hecho de que ya existen en varios países latinoamericanos esfuerzos similares por repensar la ética profesional del abogado, unir fuerzas de académicos de distintos países latinoamericanos puede ser más productivo que seguir insistiendo solamente en esos esfuerzos locales, en los que las particularidades de cada legislación o la situación específica de cada país pueden interferir con ...
La batalla por el derecho al aborto
A partir del 2000 y tras décadas de intensas luchas por la despenalización del aborto, las organizaciones de mujeres en América Latina se han dedicado a una multiplicidad y simultaneidad de estrategias para avanzar, ya no exclusivamente en la despenalización del aborto, sino en su liberalización y, en especial, en el acceso al aborto permitido en las legislaciones de distintos países.

Terminal evaluation of the project “Decision Support for Mainstreaming and Scaling Up of Sustainable Land Management”
Land degradation reduces food productivity and security, disrupts vital ecosystem functions and increases carbon emissions and vulnerability to climate change. 52 percent of the land used for agriculture worldwide is estimated to already be affected. Studies indicate that land degradation directly affects 1.5 billion people around the world. Despite the seriousness of the issue, there is still limited access to resources and planning tools for sustainable land management. Between 2015 to 2019, FAO implemented the project ''Decision support for mainstreaming and scaling up of sustainable land management (DS-SLM)’’ at a global level across 15 countries. The aim of the project was to improve access to information on land management best practices. The final evaluation examines the impacts and sustainability of the project results. What has contributed to, or hindered, the implementation of the planned activities? What has been the effect of linkages and partnerships between the project and other major country initiatives?
