The rates of young people Not in Education, Employment or Training (NEET) in the Mediterranean European Economic Area (MED EEA) are high. Hence, the European Union and national governments have ...developed and implemented different policies aimed to tackle the NEET situation. In this article, we try to identify and understand the most relevant barriers that keep vulnerable people as NEETs. We focused on youth as being at the highest risk of becoming NEETs: migrant women aged 25–29. By using semi-structured interviews and focus groups with key stakeholders and NEETs in the Spanish region of Murcia, we collected their views on and experiences with different programs and strategies. We conclude that this group is exposed to additional barriers due to the intersectionality of their characteristics. There are structural and contextual aspects, such as motherhood, a lack of social networks, or not knowing the language, which NEET policies do not address. We highlight the need of (i) improving the adaptiveness of relevant policies by being tailored to specific problems NEETs face, (ii) expanding the focus of NEET policies, and (iii) including the regional perspective in NEET policy design. In our comprehensive approach, we stress that the NEET policy alone cannot solve the NEET problem.

During the last decade, the policy efforts aiming to tackle the NEET situation (young people who neither study nor work) have increased dramatically in the European Union. Meanwhile, many studies ...challenged those policies, showing how they failed due to lack of understanding the NEETs. Thus, we analyse the factors that influence the appearance, modification and elimination of a NEET identity. The results reveal the presence of a shared NEET identity in the countries with high NEET rates, despite the considerable differences in the countries' and NEETs' characteristics. The NEET rate stands out as the key factor influencing the NEET identity, showing that this identity depends more on economic cycles than on the specific country or its culture.
El presente artículo informa sobre la investigación realizada entre 2013 y 2017 acerca de la enseñanza de alumnado con discapacidad visual en los Conservatorios de Música, recogiendo los recursos y ...buenas prácticas más destacadas que se revelaron sobre el fomento de la inclusión para estos centros, siendo también muchas de ellas extrapolables a las escuelas de música y/o las agrupaciones musicales que integran ciegos. Se parte de las dificultades de la temática en la reducida bibliografía y que el profesorado de música no cuenta con la suficiente información, experiencia y formación previa para instruir a estudiantes invidentes (Chaves, Godall y Zattera, 2015; Chávez, 2010; Dias, 2010). La metodología de la investigación fue la etnografía a partir de un diálogo de saberes entre alumnado con discapacidad visual, sus familias y docentes junto a especialistas de este campo. Para la evaluación de los resultados se conectó con la metodología del “juicio de expertos”, que evaluaron las estrategias y los recursos. Finalmente esta investigación visibiliza las prácticas que son útiles para el desarrollo de una educación inclusiva musical para alumnado con discapacidad visual.
Este libro es el resultado de un enorme esfuerzo coral, muy bien coordinado, en el que un comprometido grupo universitario saca a la luz una cuestión fundamental: no hay educación verdaderamente ...emancipadora si no se ocupa del cultivo y buen cuidado de los valores que nos permiten crecer como ciudadanas y ciudadanos con capacidad para actuar como sujeto de nuestras propias vidas.Estamos ante un ejemplo de trabajo horizontal que permite creer en una institución universitaria comprometida con la construcción de un pensamiento para el cambio social. No es fácil encontrar en ese ámbito de producción científica saberes que articulen una teoría y una praxis pegada a la vida y unos mapas que orienten frente a los dispositivos de dominación.Los diferentes capítulos se ocupan tanto de la construcción de categorías, nociones y conceptos que nos ayudan a entender la complejidad de la enseñanza en valores, como del análisis de experiencias prácticas en los diferentes niveles del sistema -desde infantil a la universidad- , así como en otros ámbitos no institucionales. Un texto colectivo que, desafiando los discursos mas huecos sobre los valores, facilita la formación y el empoderamiento del sujeto -individual y colectivo- con capacidad para orientar la enseñanza y el aprendizaje de un conocimiento socialmente comprometido con los valores de progreso y justicia social.Jaume Martínez Bonafé

Esta investigación analiza la maternidad transnacional de mujeres inmigrantes negras, particularmente haitianas, quienes han vivenciado situaciones de discriminación y vulnerabilidad en diferentes ...servicios de salud públicos, donde son categorizadas como madres descariñadas o no suficientemente buenas. Los resultados apuntan a una carga dolorosa y persistente de la maternidad transnacional dichas mujeres, así como desconocimiento de parte de profesionales sanitarios sobre ésta. También se visualizan sesgos patriarcales, clasistas, racistas y xenófobos en su atención, respecto de sus prácticas de crianza y apego. Las conclusiones apuntan a un trato interseccional de estas discriminaciones, para mejorar el trato en salud a mujeres afrodescendientes.
Esta pesquisa analisa a maternidade transnacional de mulheres imigrantes negras, particularmente haitianas, que sofreram situações de discriminação e vulnerabilidade em diferentes serviços públicos de saúde, onde são categorizadas como sem mãe ou não são boas o suficiente. Os resultados apontam para uma carga dolorosa e persistente da maternidade transnacional para essas mulheres, bem como para o desconhecimento por parte dos profissionais de saúde. Os preconceitos patriarcais, classistas, racistas e xenófobos também são exibidos em seus cuidados com relação a suas práticas de criação e apego. As conclusões apontam para um tratamento interseccional dessas discriminações, a fim de melhorar o tratamento em saúde das mulheres negras.
The research analyzes the transnational maternity of black immigrant women, particularly Haitian women, who have experienced situations of discrimination and vulnerability in different public health services, where they are categorized as uncaring or not good enough mothers. The results point to a painful and persistent burden of transnational motherhood on Haitian women, as well as a lack of knowledge about it on the part of health professionals. Patriarchal, classist, racist and xenophobic biases are also seen in the care of these women, regarding their parenting and attachment practices. The conclusions point to the need to intersect these discriminations, to improve the treatment of Afrodescendant women in health.
The coast of Chile has been exposed to marine submersion events from storm surges, tsunamis and flooding due to heavy rains. We present evidence of these events using sedimentary records that cover ...the last 1000 years in the Pachingo wetland. Two sediment cores were analyzed for granulometry, XRF, pollen, diatoms and TOC. Three extreme events produced by marine submersion and three by pluvial flooding during El Niño episodes were identified. Geochronology was determined using a conventional dating method using 14C, 210Pbxs and 137Cs). The older marine event (E1) was heavier, identified by a coarser grain size, high content of seashells, greater amount of gravel and the presence of two rip-up clasts, which seems to fit with the tsunami of 1420 Cal AD. The other two events (E3 and E5) may correspond to the 1922 (E3) tsunami and the 1984 (E5) storm waves, corroborated with a nearshore wave simulation model for this period (SWAM). On the other hand, the three flood events (E2, E4, E6) all occurred during episodes of El Niño in 1997 (E6), 1957 (E4) and 1600 (E6), represented by layers of fine-grain sands and wood charcoal remains.
En este artículo se analizan algunas de las dificultades que en la práctica de investigación se han identificado en dos espacios rurales en los estados de Oaxaca y Tabasco en México, y se exponen ...los múltiples desafíos que el investigador debe afrontar, especialmente en relación con los conceptos de colaboración e intervención durante el trabajo que realiza. Si bien este se basa en tareas específicas de indagación y colaboración, suele haber acciones de desarrollo ajenas al entorno comunitario, que incluso no son clara o conscientemente percibidas por los actores protagonistas. Es así que el objetivo de esta presentación es reflexionar sobre la práctica investigativa colaborativa, exponiendo los aciertos y desaciertos del proceso. El concepto de intervención social se asocia con el de investigación colaborativa, en tanto que ambos pretenden poner en el centro de la participación a los sujetos, sin embargo es necesario delimitar las implicaciones de cada uno de estos conceptos en los casos estudiados. En este texto se describen aspectos teóricos y metodológicos acerca de la intervención social y la investigación colaborativa con enfoque en derechos humanos, y se reflexiona en torno al proceso de acompañamiento y las decisiones que se adoptan durante la investigación, así como acerca de la experiencia del diálogo con los colectivos con los que se colabora para construir conocimiento. This work analyzes some difficulties found in the practice of collaborative research in rural areas in Mexico, each with its historical peculiarities and passed through the application of public policies or economic policies. The researcher's activist participation has multiple advantages in that it applies development concepts outside the community environment that are sometimes not reflected by the protagonist actors. The objective of the text is to reflect on the collaborative research practice, exposing the successes and failures of the process and the challenges to overcome. As part of the research experience, the concept of social intervention is discussed, which is associated with collaborative research, in the center of participation is understood by the subjects. In this text are described the concepts and methodological aspects raised by the specialists in the subject of social intervention, then associate it with collaborative research with a human rights approach. The two collaborative research experiences focussed are described, and we reflect on the accompaniment process and the reflections on the decisions regarding the objectives, methodology and results, as well as the experience of the dialogue with the collectives with the collaboration for knowledge.
Aiming to tackle the high levels of youth unemployment and rates of Not Employed, in Education, or Training (NEET), the European Union launched the flagship policy Youth Guarantee in 2013. In this ...article we evaluate this policy in order to reveal the lessons it can teach us and possible ways for its improvement to achieve a sustainable active labor market policy. We use the data collected through the Indicator Framework for Monitoring the Youth Guarantee to analyze the policy impact, limited to some of the countries with the highest NEET rates: those of the Mediterranean European Economic Area (Cyprus, Greece, Italy, and Spain). We used the data to create regression models for the evaluation of policy measures, spread, and achievements. In our findings we reveal the importance of time in the policy implementation, the differences and commonalities between the countries, and hidden problems in the data collection that lead to biases and misleading results. We conclude that it is too soon to judge the usefulness of the policy and recommend an improvement in the data collection process.
