América Latina Genera

Genera

Nuestra Historia


En el 2006, el PNUD se planteó la necesidad de enfrentar la gran dispersión de recursos de conocimiento en el tema de género y la falta de intercambio y de sistematización de las experiencias desarrolladas en la región que nos permitiera dar un salto en cuanto a aprendizajes y a la obtención de mejores resultados.


Con apoyo del fondo JWID, se puso en marcha una primera iniciativa que tuvo como principal resultado la creación de este portal América Latina Genera, la ciudad de conocimiento en género: un lugar de encuentro del saber generado por diferentes actores, en diferentes países, sobre diversos temas, todos ellos relacionados con la igualdad de género. Se fue construyendo una ciudad con alcaldía, escuela, biblioteca, taller de herramientas, parque, centro de gobierno, plaza y miles de otros espacios donde se organizaban recursos, debates y experiencias.


La ciudad creció tanto en cuanto a recursos, pero también se tenía que adaptar a demandas tan complejas, que fue necesario reordenarla en diversas ocasiones, en el 2008, en el 2011, en el 2013 y en el 2014, con cambios de secciones, diseño, contenidos y también estructurales.


Pasó de ser un proyecto del programa regional a la columna vertebral del trabajo del Área Práctica de Género del Centro Regional del PNUD para América Latina y el Caribe. Esta área tiene como objetivo impulsar los mandatos corporativos del PNUD en igualdad de género, promoviendo el desarrollo de políticas, proyectos e iniciativas estratégicas que transformen las estructuras, valores y patrones que perpetúan las desigualdades de género en la región y ofreciendo asistencia técnica a nuestras oficinas y asociados con ese mismo fin.

American Midland Naturalist Journal

Ammidnat

The American Midland Naturalist was founded in 1909 by Reverend Julius A. Nieuwland, C.S.C., and has been published since by the University of Notre Dame. It is a refereed, broad-spectrum journal publishing basic research in diverse disciplines in biology and varied taxa. The historic name is no longer precisely descriptive, as it includes materials from all of North America and, occasionally, from other areas. An editorial survey identified major topics, as are evident in its list of associate editors, for animal, vegetation and plant population in ecology, mammalogy, animal behavior, herpetology, ornithology, aquatic ecology, parasitology, ichthyology, plant physiology and biological statistics. Articles include field and laboratory studies of life history, distribution, growth, reproduction, behavior, physiology, diet, habitat and myriad other topics of interest to biologists. Approximately one-fourth of the articles published in the American Midland Naturalist are experimental. It is among the most frequently cited journals in publications as diverse as Ecology and Oecologia, Journal of Mammalogy, Herpetologia, Copeia, Journal of Parasitology, Hydrobiologia, Journal of Wildlife Management and numerous others. Its history has been described in The American Midland Naturalist: The Life History of a Journal. American Midland Naturalist, 123:1-31, 1990.

ASP

The American Society of Parasitologists (ASP) is a diverse group of over 800 scientists from industry, government, and academia who are interested in the study and teaching of Parasitology. Founded in 1924, ASP members have contributed not only to the development of parasitology as a discipline, but also to primary research in systematics, medicine, molecular biology, immunology, physiology, ecology, biochemistry, behavior, and more.


ASP Mission Statement


The Mission of the American Society of Parasitologists is to constantly improve our understanding of parasites, parasitic diseases, and parasitism on a global basis and to disseminate this knowledge worldwide. We achieve this Mission by providing opportunities for all scientists to publish their original findings in the Society's Journal, and to present and discuss new information at the Society's annual meeting, in the ASP's Newsletter, through the ASP's Public Advocacy Network, or in discussion groups on the internet. We educate parasitologists via our Web Page and other educational media produced by the Society. In order to meet our goal to remain a strong focus of scientific exchange across the broad discipline of parasitology, we must actively seek and support new research areas and new members and retain current members, as well as encourage and support continued existence of highly specialized areas of research in parasitology.


ASP Vision Statement


Recognizing that parasitism is the most common form of existence, and that parasites and the diseases they can cause affect the health, development, and evolution of free-living animals and plants, the American Society of Parasitologists seeks to foster the advancement of knowledge in all areas of parasitism. Recognizing the value of this knowledge and the responsibility given to the ASP as a result of understanding parasitism, the ASP seeks to disseminate this knowledge to all who have need of it through our outreach programs with educational systems, governmental, public, and private agencies, as well as during our scientific meetings. To do this, ASP is dedicated to the perpetuation of all areas of the discipline that is parasitology.

Amnesty International

AI

Amnesty International is a global movement of more than 7 million people who take injustice personally. We are campaigning for a world where human rights are enjoyed by all.

We are funded by members and people like you. We are independent of any political ideology, economic interest or religion. No government is beyond scrutiny. No situation is beyond hope. 

Few would have predicted when we started that torturers would become international outlaws. That most countries would abolish the death penalty. And seemingly untouchable dictators would be made to answer for their crimes.

What does Amnesty do?

We investigate and expose the facts, whenever and wherever abuses happen. 

We lobby governments, and other powerful groups such as companies. Making sure they keep their promises and respect international law. 

By telling the powerful stories of the people we work with, we mobilize millions of supporters around the world to campaign for change and to stand in defence of activists on the frontline. 

We support people to claim their rights through education and training. .

We are introducing a new, global way of working – with a distributed centre and Regional Hubs of research, campaigns and communications – because we owe it to the people we work for to be the most effective force for freedom and justice that we can, globally.

As we develop this process – in line with the long-held desire of our international membership – we will post regular blogs, articles, stories and personal accounts to explain what is happening, and why it is important to those on the human rights front line. 

Analyzing Development Issues Centre Cambodia

ADIC

The Analyzing Development Issues Centre (ADIC) was registered with Cambodia’s Ministry of the Interior on 4 April 2011. ADIC began from the Cooperation Committee of Cambodia (CCC)’s Analyzing Development Issues (ADI) Project in 1999 and transformed as an NGO in 2011. ADIC’s initial goal was to increase the critical thinking skills of NGO staff and their capacity to analyze development issues through development research that contributes to beneficial social change in local communities. Grounding its work in Cambodian economic and social realities and aspiring to fill the niche left open by the ADI Project phase out, ADIC has continued to support NGOs in participatory action research (PAR) and policy studies with vulnerable groups in poor and food insecure provinces. ADIC will likewise continue to democratise policy research and to bridge the gap between policy researchers and NGO development practitioners.

El advenimiento de las libertades públicas en el Paraguay luego de más de treinta y cinco años de dictadura, necesariamente contribuyó a que los escritores paraguayos plantearan o replantearan su escritura en función de los tiempos nuevos. Con esto no queremos alentar ninguna especulación determinista sobre la literatura y la historia, sólo queremos decir que la libre retroalimentación de la sociedad es el dato unificador de la literatura que se escribe hoy en el Paraguay y de la cual el fondo editorial de Arandurã es un valioso, insustituible testimonio.

El esfuerzo sostenido de Arandurã editorial en sus 12 años de existencia, ha sido sin lugar a dudas una de las mayores contribuciones a la difusión y consolidación de la literatura paraguaya, antes casi desconocida.

Los invitamos pues amigos y amigas lectores y lectoras a seguir con nosotros para redescubrir nuestra identidad cultural, soñar, reír, llorar y por sobre todo disfrutar cada página compartida.
