Spatiotemporal analysis of rainfall and temperature variability and trends for climate resilient maize farming system in major agroecology zones of northwest Ethiopia

Kindie Tesfaye Dereje Ademe Enyew Adgo (2023, [Artículo])

Spatiotemporal studies of the annual and seasonal climate variability and trend on an agroecological spatial scale for establishing a climate-resilient maize farming system have not yet been conducted in Ethiopia. The study was carried out in three major agroecological zones in northwest Ethiopia using climate data from 1987 to 2018. The coefficient of variation (CV), precipitation concertation index (PCI), and rainfall anomaly index (RAI) were used to analyze the variability of rainfall. The Mann-Kendall test and Sen’s slope estimator were also applied to estimate trends and slopes of changes in rainfall and temperature. High-significance warming trends in the maximum and minimum temperatures were shown in the highland and lowland agroecology zones, respectively. Rainfall has also demonstrated a maximum declining trend throughout the keremt season in the highland agroecology zone. However, rainfall distribution has become more unpredictable in the Bega and Belg seasons. Climate-resilient maize agronomic activities have been determined by analyzing the onset and cessation dates and the length of the growth period (LGP). The rainy season begins between May 8 and June 3 and finishes between October 26 and November 16. The length of the growth period (LGP) during the rainy season ranges from 94 to 229 days.

Women, economic resilience, gender norms in a time of climate change: what do we know?

Cathy Farnworth Anne Rietveld Rachel Voss Angela Meentzen (2023, [Artículo])

This literature delves into 82 research articles, published between 2016 and 2022, to develop a deep understanding of how women manage their lives and livelihoods within their agrifood systems when these systems are being affected, sometimes devastatingly, by climate change. The Findings show that four core gender norms affect the ability of women to achieve economic resilience in the face of climate change operate in agrifood production systems. Each of these gender norms speaks to male privilege: (i) Men are primary decision-makers, (ii) Men are breadwinners, (iii) Men control assets, and (iv) Men are food system actors. These gender norms are widely held and challenge women’s abilities to become economically resilient. These norms are made more powerful still because they fuse with each other and act on multiple levels, and they serve to support other norms which limit women’s scope to act. It is particularly noteworthy that many institutional actors, ranging from community decision-makers to development partners, tend to reinforce rather than challenge gender norms because they do not critically review their own assumptions.

However, the four gender norms cited are not hegemonic. First, there is limited and intriguing evidence that intersectional identities can influence women’s resilience in significant ways. Second, gender norms governing women’s roles and power in agrifood systems are changing in response to climate change and other forces, with implications for how women respond to future climate shocks. Third, paying attention to local realities is important – behaviours do not necessarily substantiate local norms. Fourth, women experience strong support from other women in savings groups, religious organisations, reciprocal labour, and others. Fifth, critical moments, such as climate disasters, offer potentially pivotal moments of change which could permit women unusually high levels of agency to overcome restrictive gender norms without being negatively sanctioned. The article concludes with recommendations for further research.

Entre la solidaridad y el capital: niveles de subsunción de las experiencias de economía popular

EDUARDO ENRIQUE AGUILAR HERNANDEZ (2023, [Artículo])

"El presente trabajo abona al debate sobre la disputa conceptual y de sentido de las economías populares. Este proceso de reflexión está fundamentado en los resultados de entrevistas semiestructuradas y la observación participante de proyectos de economía popular en Jalisco, que analizo mediante categorías de economía política para comprender los diferentes niveles de subsunción al sistema de producción capitalista. Como conclusión del trabajo, visibilizo que, dentro del ámbito material, las experiencias de economía popular con mayor composición orgánica de capital, como la cooperativa llantera, tienen una subsunción real al sistema, mientras que aquellas iniciativas de baja composición, como las iniciativas agroecológicas, están subsumidas a éste de manera formal".

Plan de medidas preventivas y de mitigación de la sequía en la cuenca del río Balsas

ISRAEL VELASCO VELASCO DAVID ORTEGA GAUCIN (2014, [Documento de trabajo])

Tabla de contenido: Introducción – Caracterización de la cuenca del río Balsas – Análisis de las sequías históricas y sus impactos – Análisis de la vulnerabilidad ante la sequía – Etapas, indicadores y umbrales de la sequía – Medidas preventivas y de mitigación de la sequía – Programa de respuesta a las etapas de la sequía – Sistema de seguimiento y evaluación.

A partir de series históricas y datos hidrométricos y climatológicos, se realizó el análisis de las sequías históricas y sus impactos, además de evaluar la vulnerabilidad ante la sequía en las distintas regiones de la cuenca del río Balsas. Posteriormente se determinaron una serie de acciones que pueden ser implementadas en el marco del Consejo de Cuenca, con objeto de afrontar la sequía en tres sentidos: antes de que ocurra el fenómeno (medidas estratégicas); cuando apenas inicia (medidas tácticas); y cuando ya está presente (medidas de emergencia). Las medidas pueden ser de corto, mediano o largo plazos. Su consideración está en función de la intensidad del fenómeno, de los impactos que cause y de los recursos disponibles para invertir. Muchas de las medidas propuestas en este documento son de tipo estructural y necesarias para ahorrar agua y recuperar volúmenes. No obstante, como se ha visto históricamente y es una realidad, gran parte de los efectos de la sequía son consecuencias derivadas de las fallas en la gestión del agua. Razón por la cual el informe incluye, además, una serie detallada de acciones para administrar el riesgo de sequía y afrontar el fenómeno en sus distintas etapas, desde moderada hasta excepcional.

El paisaje maya en la experiencia turística de finales del siglo XX en el territorio yucateco

Daniel Jesús Reyes Magaña (2023, [Capítulo de libro])

Los recorridos turísticos de miles de visitantes por año en el territorio maya yucateco, al norte de la Península de Yucatán, son herencia de los primeros viajeros extranjeros del siglo XIX. Desde esa época, estos aventureros se establecieron como los guías que, a través de su legado, conducen la mirada hacia la contemplación del pasado. Los turistas en la actualidad caminan por los pasos de dichos viajeros, atestiguando la mirada del paisaje depositada en los vestigios mayas ancestrales, que articulan cada uno de los elementos del paisaje del territorio. Sin embargo, la velocidad del viaje en el escenario turístico contemporáneo ha detonado la pérdida de la integralidad paisajística originaria debido a la actual búsqueda de emociones efímeras en el turismo. La parafernalia turística ha cubierto el patrimonio paisajístico maya de consumismo y mercantilización, enfocados a la venta de experiencias. En contraparte, el encuentro profundo entre el hombre y el paisaje, condicionado determinantemente por la dinámica turística, es posible en la experiencia humana como se descubre en la poética paisajística de la obra literaria “Palmeras de la brisa rápida” de Juan Villoro publicada por primera vez en 1989, y que revela las pautas del acontecimiento paisajístico en los viajeros contemporáneos.

The sightseeing tours of thousands of visitors per year in the Yucatan Mayan territory, north of the Yucatan Peninsula, are the heritage of the first foreign travelers of the nineteenth century. From that time on, these adventurers established themselves as the guides who, through their legacy, printed in travel books, engravings, and holiday triptychs, turn their gaze to the contemplation of the past. Tourists today walk through the footsteps of such travelers, attesting to the view of the landscape deposited in the ancestral Mayan vestiges, which articulate each of the elements of the landscape of the territory. However, the speed of travel on the contemporary tourist stage has detonated the loss of original landscape integrality due to the current search for ephemeral emotions in tourism. Tourist paraphernalia has covered the Mayan landscape heritage of consumerism and commodization, focused on the sale of experiences. In contrast, the deep encounter between man and landscape, conditioned decisively by tourist dynamics, is possible in the human experience as discovered in the poetic landscape of Juan Villoro’s literary work “Palmeras de la brisa rápida” first published in 1989, and which reveals the patterns of the landscape event in contemporary travelers.

The impact of digital transformation and value capture on business models

RAUL FRANCISCO MONTALVO CORZO (2023, [Artículo])

In awareness of the importance that Digital Transformation (DT) has gained in Mexican companies in recent years, as well as the concern of Business Models (BM) in capturing value, the purpose of this thesis is to answer the question:

What is the impact of Digital Transformation and value capture on business models?

Five research projects have been developed in Mexico to answer this question. The first research work consisted of a systematic literature review in order to identify relevant opportunities for this research, which is explained in the first chapter of the thesis. Derived from this first research work, the following four research papers were developed.

The second chapter addresses the adoption of the digital transformation of corner stores promoted by large companies. Through the application of in-depth interviews in corner stores resulted in an urgent call for large companies to unify strategies to promote the DT of the front desk with customers.

The third chapter includes an analysis of the sustainability reports of large companies, in which DT actions to achieve sustainability are identified. Concluding that investment in digital transformation actions promote the sustainability of businesses and the permanence of business models.

A successful business model considers satisfactory customer experience as a pillar in its development. Which motivated the fourth paper, focused on investigating how artificial intelligence is perceived in customer service. It was through surveys that we investigated whether the implementation of chatbots improves the customer experience, findings show that it will depend on the purpose of the chatbot, the age of the customer and the level of education.

With the purpose of sharing experiences of Mexican companies in the implementation of DT projects, a fifth research paper is included explaining why digital transformation projects fail in companies. This work was carried out by conducting interviews with Project Managers (PM) and experts in DT projects implementation.

This work is original since it is developed in Mexico, has different research methodologies and has managerial implications that are mentioned in each research paper. There are undoubtedly great opportunities in the research of DT, since it is a topic with many edges, and this thesis only covers some of them.
