Abstract: This article analyzes the process of integration into new consumption patterns of young rural wage earners in a territory of the Ecuadorian highlands, where flower and broccoli agribusinesses predominate. We seek to show the structural conditions that allow young wage earners to adopt new habitus closer to the consumption of global goods, a process narrowly related to their position in the social field. In the first part, we analyze the relationship between consumption and habitus in rural areas from different sociological theoretical perspectives. In the second part, based on a case study, we address consumption trends among rural youth. The third part reflects on the importance of new consumption patterns among young wage earners through access to two types of global merchandise (motorcycle and cell phone) that have become new symbolic and prestige objects.

Resumen A partir de 14 entrevistas a profundidad con personas migrantes peruanas residentes en Suiza, el artículo analiza los arreglos familiares entre las y los hermanos migrantes y no migrantes en favor de sus madres y padres radicados en Perú. Los hallazgos subrayan que la toma de decisiones está marcada por relaciones de poder, donde el género y los recursos económicos desempeñan un rol decisivo. Así mismo, las negociaciones entre hermanas y hermanos están relacionadas con la capacidad de cumplir el deber filial de cuidar y de sentirse reconocido como el hijo o la hija que cuida a sus padres, tal como estos lo hicieron cuando ellos eran niños. Si bien la muestra abarca a un grupo de migrantes establecidos en Suiza que logró importantes niveles de integración social, cultural y laboral, los resultados proporcionan pistas sobre la problemática de los cuidados transnacionales aplicables a otros contextos de migración sur-norte.

Abstract Based on fourteen in-depth interviews with Peruvian migrants living in Switzerland, the article analyzes the family arrangements between migrant and non-migrant siblings on behalf of their parents living in Peru. The findings highlight that decision-making is affected by power relations, where gender and economic resources play a decisive role. Sibling negotiations are also related to the capacity to fulfill the filial duty of taking care and feeling recognized as the son or daughter who takes care of the parents, just as the parents did when the siblings were children. While the sample covers a group of migrants settled in Switzerland who achieved important levels of social, cultural, and labor integration, the results provide insights on transnational care issues that are applicable to other South-North migration contexts.

Resumen Tras los atentados terroristas del 9/11, se han implementado reformas a las leyes migratorias de Estados Unidos, lo que ha provocado deportaciones masivas de millones de mexicanos. En este artículo se busca identificar los riesgos y dificultades que particularmente enfrentan los expandilleros que han sido deportados a México tras llevar una conducta delictiva y vivir en las prisiones de Estados Unidos, y que actualmente buscan rehacer su vida en Guadalajara. Para ello, se llevó a cabo una serie de 35 encuestas, de las que se derivaron 31 casos que fueron objeto de estudio de este proyecto. El análisis de los resultados de las encuestas permitió comprender las principales dificultades que enfrentan los homies deportados para encontrar trabajo, reintegrarse a su familia y mantenerse alejados de las drogas y el alcohol.

ABSTRACT After the terrorist attacks of 9/11, reforms to U.S immigration laws have been implemented. This has resulted in massive deportations of millions of Mexicans. This article seeks to identify the risks and difficulties faced by former gang members deported to Mexico after engaging in criminal behavior and living in U.S prisons. And who are currently seeking to rebuild their lives in Guadalajara. For this purpose, a series of 35 surveys was carried out, from which 31 cases were derived that were the object of study of this project. The analysis of the survey results allowed to understand the main difficulties that deported homies face in finding work, reintegrating with their families, and staying away from drugs and alcohol.

Abstract: Introduction: Health care by nursing professionals to people with gender diversity can be negatively affected by the heteronormativity that has historically governed society. It is challenging to safeguard and seek actions to provide inclusive humanized care Objective: To understand the nursing professional’s experiences when providing humanized care to people with gender diversity. Method: Qualitative research with a phenomenological approach. Four nursing professionals were interviewed. The information was collected through semi-structured individual and group interviews; the discourses were analyzed, and central concepts were triangulated.Results: Humanized care is manifested through three dimensions: experiences in providing humanized care, factors that facilitate the delivery of humanized care and factors that hinder it. The categories included in the first dimension are equality, empathy, respect and learning. Factors that facilitate humanized care have the categories of welcoming and continuing education, and factors that hinder it have the categories of social name and suspicion. Conclusion: Humanized care for people with gender diversity requires values of equality and empathy, together with inclusive training from undergraduate level. Deficiency in the development of soft skills hinders the nurse-patient relationship, while suspicion of the gender-diverse person hinders first consultations. The integration of the social name and continuous training are essential to promote an environment of trust and reduce the feeling of vulnerability and discrimination.

Resumo: Introdução: O atendimento em saúde prestado pelos profissionais de enfermagem às pessoas com diversidade de gênero pode ser afetado negativamente pela heteronormatividade que historicamente rege a sociedade. Atualmente, é um desafio resguardar e buscar ações para proporcionar um cuidado humanizado e inclusivo. Objetivo: Compreender as vivências do profissional de enfermagem ao prestar o cuidado humanizado a pessoas com diversidade de gênero. Método: Pesquisa qualitativa, com abordagem fenomenológica. Foram entrevistados quatro profissionais de enfermagem. As informações foram coletadas por meio de entrevistas semiestruturadas individuais e em grupo; os discursos foram analisados e foi realizada uma triangulação dos principais conceitos. Resultados: O cuidado humanizado se manifesta por meio de três dimensões: vivências ao fornecer cuidados humanizados, fatores que facilitam a prestação de cuidado humanizado e fatores que a dificultam. As categorias incluídas na primeira dimensão são igualdade, empatia, respeito e aprendizado. Os fatores que facilitam os cuidados humanizados incluem acolhimento e formação contínua, enquanto os fatores que os dificultam incluem o uso do nome social e o receio. Conclusão: O cuidado humanizado a pessoas com diversidade de gênero requer valores de igualdade e empatia, juntamente com formação inclusiva desde o nível de graduação. A deficiência no desenvolvimento de habilidades interpessoais dificulta o relacionamento enfermeiro-paciente, enquanto o receio da pessoa com diversidade de gênero dificulta as primeiras consultas. A integração do nome social e a formação continuada são essenciais para promover um ambiente de confiança e reduzir a sensação de vulnerabilidade e discriminação.

Método: Investigación cualitativa, con un enfoque fenomenológico. Se entrevistó a cuatro profesionales de enfermería. La información se recopiló a través de entrevistas individuales y grupales semiestructuradas; los discursos fueron analizados y se realizó una triangulación de los conceptos principales. Resultados: El cuidado humanizado se manifiesta a través de tres dimensiones: vivencias al brindar cuidados humanizados, factores que facilitan la entrega del cuidado humanizado y factores que lo dificultan. Las categorías incluidas en la primera dimensión son igualdad, empatía, respeto y aprendizaje. Los factores que facilitan los cuidados humanizados tienen como categorías la acogida y la formación continua, y los factores que lo dificultan tienen las categorías de nombre social y recelo. Conclusión: El cuidado humanizado a personas con diversidad de género requiere valores de igualdad y empatía, junto con una formación inclusiva desde pregrado. La deficiencia en el desarrollo de habilidades blandas dificulta la relación enfermero-paciente, mientras que el recelo de la persona con diversidad de género obstaculiza las primeras consultas. La integración del nombre social y la formación continua son esenciales para promover un ambiente de confianza y reducir la sensación de vulnerabilidad y discriminación.

Abstract By the year of two thousand and nineteen, the private medical service industry growth was concentrated in the border cities of the Sonora state due to the large number of foreign patients and around six hundred thousand Sonora residents or descendants living in the state of Arizona (López, 2019). Hermosillo stands out among the border municipalities, thanks to its internationally certified private hospital infrastructure. However, the absence of post-operative-care as well as external services promoters in Mexico and internationally, combined with a fragmented value chain, have slowed down the growth of the medical industry in the capital (López, 2019). Our society is still in the first stages of digitalization therefore a universally accepted concept of digital economy has yet to be established. There's a gap between the available tools and the implementation in order to optimize the value chain and the customer experience. The current document contextualizes the private medical service industry in Hermosillo, Sonora within the digital economy through documentary research on digital resources, in the matters of politics, economics, social and technological context. In addition, the health crisis forced the digitalization of the commercialization processes in order to accomplish established objectives, thereby positioning the medical service industry as a participant in the digital economy.

Resumen Para el año dos mil diecinueve el crecimiento de la industria médica privada se daba más en las ciudades fronterizas del estado de sonora debido a la afluencia de pacientes extranjeros y unos seiscientos mil sonorenses o descendientes radicados en el estado de Arizona (López, 2019). Hermosillo destaca de los municipios fronterizos, gracias a la infraestructura privada hospitalaria certificada internacionalmente. Sin embargo, la ausencia de servicio postoperatorio al igual que agentes externos promotores de los servicios en el extranjero como en la república mexicana y una desconexión en la cadena de valor, han frenado el crecimiento de la industria médica en la capital (López, 2019). El concepto de economía digital no cuenta con una definición ampliamente aceptada, debido a que la sociedad se encuentra en las primeras etapas de digitalización. Existe una brecha entre las herramientas y su instrumentación para eficientar la cadena de valor y la experiencia del cliente. El presente documento contextualiza la industria privada de servicios médicos de Hermosillo, Sonora en la economía digital mediante una investigación documental de recursos digitales, esto en materia política, económica, social y tecnológica. Aunado a lo anterior la crisis sanitaria forzó a la digitalización de los procesos comerciales para lograr los objetivos planteados, por lo que la industria médica se convirtió en un actor de la economía digital.

RESUMEN En el contexto actual, la transformación digital se ha convertido en un factor fundamental para el cambio de la matriz productiva en Ecuador. Esto se debe a que el mundo está siendo cada vez más digital y las empresas necesitan adaptarse a esta nueva realidad para seguir siendo competitivas en el mercado nacional e internacional. Sin embargo, a pesar de los esfuerzos del gobierno ecuatoriano por impulsar la transformación digital, todavía existen obstáculos que limitan su implementación de manera eficiente y efectiva. Uno de ellos es el insuficiente conocimiento sobre el tema y sobre sus beneficios para la práctica social. Muchas empresas todavía no han adoptado las tecnologías digitales en sus procesos y actividades. Por otro lado, existen barreras como la falta de acceso a internet en algunas zonas rurales y la falta de capacitación y formación en habilidades digitales. El objetivo de este estudio es ofrecer un análisis de los niveles de interdependencia intersectorial en el contexto de la matriz productiva de Ecuador, identificando los principales desafíos, fortalezas y oportunidades. De esta manera se podrán proponer recomendaciones para la integración efectiva con la transformación digital. La metodología consistió en revisar la literatura sobre la transformación digital y su integración a la matriz productiva de Ecuador. También se recopiló información de estudios y datos estadísticos sobre la adopción de tecnologías digitales en el país.

ABSTRACT In the current context, digital transformation has become a key factor for changing the productive matrix in Ecuador. This is because the world is becoming increasingly digital and companies need to adapt to this new reality to remain competitive in the domestic and international markets. However, despite the Ecuadorian government's efforts to promote digital transformation, there are still obstacles that limit its efficient and effective implementation. One of those obstacles is the insufficient knowledge about the subject and about its benefits for social practice. Many companies have not yet adopted digital technologies in their processes and activities. On the other hand, there are barriers such as the lack of access to the internet in some rural areas and the lack of training and skills in digital skills. The objective of this study is to offer an analysis of the levels of intersectoral interdependence in the context of Ecuador's productive matrix, identifying the main challenges, strengths and opportunities. In this way, recommendations can be proposed for effective integration with digital transformation. The methodology consisted of reviewing the literature on digital transformation and its integration into Ecuador's productive matrix. Information was also collected from studies and statistical data on the adoption of digital technologies in the country.

Research that directs the way stakeholders act and how they collaborate is essential when addressing complex environmental challenges in the field of sustainability science. For example, researchers attempting to manage Prosopis invasions through biological control in South Africa have historically faced challenges from stakeholders. In this study we illustrate the importance of stakeholder engagement and social learning by outlining the collaborative efforts of various stakeholders to promote effective, integrative and sustainable management of Prosopis invasions in the Northern Cape, South Africa. Through a community of practice approach, stakeholders worked together over the past half-decade in an attempt to develop a National Strategy for Prosopis management and improve its control. This strategy aimed not only to emphasise the need for integration of biomass use (aimed at offsetting the costs of mechanical clearing and necessary herbicide use) but also to underscore the significance of biocontrol alongside other management approaches. Stakeholders also identified that adequate farm-scale planning is necessary to provide a sense of purpose and assist in monitoring of progress. We worked alongside land managers and experts to develop such plans. The engagement of local champions played a crucial role in facilitating collaboration and learning among stakeholders, emphasising the significance of inclusive approaches in addressing complex sustainability challenges. In addition, we gained an understanding of how to develop the community of practice to enhance collaboration that ensures the implementation of plans to better manage Prosopis. Our findings underscore the necessity of meaningful stakeholder engagement and collaboration in effective invasive species management. By promoting understanding and involvement of diverse stakeholders, initiatives can have a greater impact in addressing broader sustainability issues. SIGNIFICANCE: Our findings highlight the fundamental role of stakeholder collaboration in addressing environmental challenges (e.g. biological invasions), promoting sustainability and fostering social learning. Collaboration facilitates exchange of knowledge, promotes social learning and allows stakeholders to make informed decisions when addressing sustainability issues. Collaborative approaches promote the effectiveness of a community of practice in managing Prosopis invasions in South Africa. Local champions played a pivotal role in facilitating collaboration, bridging communication gaps and promoting inclusive approaches. Sustained stakeholder engagement, transdisciplinary collaborations, effective biological control and market development for biomass products will be essential to improve the sustainable management Prosopis.

RESUMEN Este estudio pretende analizar la opinión y percepción de los agentes educativos portugueses sobre la integración de la educación socioemocional en las escuelas portuguesas. Para ello, se realizaron entrevistas semiestructuradas a agentes educativos de diferentes niveles educativos, áreas científicas y regiones de Portugal. Aunque las últimas investigaciones indican que la educación socioemocional contribuye al éxito académico, a una mejor preparación para los retos de la vida, a la protección de la salud y a la creación de entornos de aprendizaje positivos, en Portugal, la educación socioemocional sigue desatendida. Según los participantes en el estudio, para integrar la educación socioemocional es necesario cambiar los planes de estudio, universalizar e invertir en el desarrollo de los conocimientos y el nivel socioemocional de los profesores, aumentar el apoyo social en la escuela, cambiar la organización escolar, y transformar el entorno en el que se debaten y deciden las políticas educativas.

ABSTRACT This study aims to analyse the opinion and perception of Portuguese educational agents on the integration of socio-emotional education in Portuguese schools. To this end, semi-structured interviews were carried out with educational agents from different levels of education, scientific areas and regions of Portugal. Although the latest research indicates that socio-emotional education contributes to academic success, better preparation for life's challenges, health protection and the creation of positive learning environments, socio-emotional education continues to be neglected in Portugal. According to the participants in the study, in order to integrate socio-emotional education it is necessary to change curricula, universalise and invest in the development of teachers' knowledge and socio-emotional level, increase social support at school, change the school organisation, and transform the environment in which education policies are discussed and decided.

RESUMO Este estudo tem como objetivo analisar a opinião e perceção dos agentes educativos portugueses sobre a integração da educação socioemocional na escola portuguesa. Para tal, foram realizadas entrevistas semiestruturadas a agentes educativos de diferentes níveis do ensino, áreas científicas e regiões de Portugal. Embora a investigação mais recente indique que a educação socioemocional contribui para o sucesso académico, para uma melhor preparação para os desafios da vida, para a proteção da saúde e para criação de ambientes de aprendizagem positivos, em Portugal, a educação socioemocional continua a ser negligenciada. Segundo os participantes no estudo, para a integração da educação socioemocional é necessário alterar os currículos, universalizar e investir no desenvolvimento do conhecimento e nível socioemocional dos docentes, aumentar o suporte social na escola, alterar a organização escolar e transformar o ambiente de discussão e decisão das políticas de educação.

Abstract: Drawing on A. R. Radcliffe-Brown’s seminal work The Andaman Islanders, this article analyzes anger as a cultural focal point in a non-Western society. The discussion navigates various themes related to anger through an ethnographic dialogue. In the Andamanese worldview, anger is linked to the wrath of spirits and is regarded as an antisocial force. The study reveals that the interplay between different codes-mythological, techno-economic, symbolic, matrimonial, and acoustic-partially corresponds with the patterns noted by Lévi-Strauss in his Mythologiques series. Pandya’s thesis suggests that Andamanese rituals are designed to harness power to reconcile oppositions, particularly between humans and spirits. The text’s originality lies in highlighting the role of dance as a medium for communication between humans and spirits, aimed at soothing the spirits’ anger. The article also underscores Radcliffe-Brown’s identification of two foundational concepts in anthropology during his study of the Andaman Islands: first, the Durkheimian notion of organic solidarity, and second, a unique experience of solidarity expressed through dance. Dance is interpreted as a language of social integration, serving as a key cultural practice in countering the spirits’ wrath and the resulting destruction.

Resumen: A partir del estudio paradigmático The Andaman Islanders de A. R. Radcliffe-Brown, se presenta un análisis de la ira como foco cultural en una cultura no occidental. A lo largo del artículo se exponen temas vinculados a la ira a partir del diálogo entre las etnografías. La ira se asocia al enfado de los espíritus en la cosmovisión andamanesa y se concibe como un hecho antisocial. En las Andamán, la correlación entre diferentes códigos -mitológico, tecnoeconómico, simbólico, matrimonial y acústico- coincide parcialmente con lo apuntado por Lévi-Strauss en su serie de las Mitológicas. La tesis de Pandya plantea que el objeto de los rituales andamaneses es la obtención de poder para lograr la superación de contrarios, entre humanos y espíritus. La originalidad del texto se basa en el papel de la danza como agente de comunicación entre los humanos y los espíritus con la intención de calmar la ira de estos. También se subraya el descubrimiento de Radcliffe-Brown en las Andamán de dos elementos clave para la antropología: por un lado, la sociedad durkheimiana de solidaridad orgánica; por otro, una forma de vivir la solidaridad a través de la danza. La danza puede entenderse como un lenguaje de integración social. Por ello, constituye una de las actividades paradigmáticas de la cultura frente a la ira y la destrucción de los espíritus.

Resumo: Com base no estudo paradigmático The Andaman Islanders, de A. R. Radcliffe-Brown, é apresentada uma análise da ira como foco cultural em uma cultura não ocidental. Ao longo deste artigo, os temas da ira são apresentados em um diálogo entre as etnografias. A ira está associada ao enfado espiritual na visão de mundo andamanês e é concebida como evento antissocial. Nos andamaneses, a correlação entre diferentes códigos - mitológico, tecnoeconômico, simbólico, matrimonial e acústico - está parcialmente de acordo com o que Lévi-Strauss apontou em sua série das Mitológicas. A tese de Pandya é que o objetivo dos rituais andamaneses é obter poder para alcançar a superação de opostos, entre humanos e espíritos. A originalidade deste texto se baseia no papel da dança como agente de comunicação entre humanos e espíritos com a intenção de acalmar a ira dos espíritos. Ele também destaca a descoberta de Radcliffe-Brown em Andaman de dois elementos-chave para a antropologia: por um lado, a sociedade durkheimiana de solidariedade orgânica; por outro, uma forma de viver a solidariedade por meio da dança. A dança pode ser entendida como linguagem de integração social. Como tal, ela constitui uma das atividades paradigmáticas da cultura em face da ira e da destruição dos espíritos.

For a long period of time, what is termed scientific knowledge and discoveries have constantly ignored the existence of indigenous practices and knowledge. Until recently, indigenous knowledge systems (IKS) were not acknowledged when it comes to responding to the ailing world. IKS includes information created inside inborn social orders, autonomous of, and earlier to, the appearance of the cutting-edge logical information framework. It can relate to issues such as conserving nature, food production, forestry development and medicine, to mention a few. The purpose of the article is to discuss the importance of the integration of IKS and culture into climate change adaptation. This article makes the case that scientific interventions among the impoverished in rural developing nations are viewed as foreign and are thus not accepted by the local populace. Consequently, the scientific approach by development experts, and the complex nature of climate change and its understanding, has had no impact on people's adaptation in rural areas, where most of the people still rely on IKS to survive. This theoretical article focuses on the implications of IKS for climate change adaptation. The question the article intends to answer is, with the advent of climate change in recent years, how are rural communities coping with its impact? How is the scientific understanding of climate change with its complexities filtering down to the indigenous communities' coping and adaptation activities? The article's conclusion demystifies the notion that the impact of climate change might be mitigated, and repair achieved solely by scientifically developed measures against it. The article intends to contribute towards building knowledge that acknowledges the importance of different sources of interventions towards addressing climate change. It is important for the current and future professoriate to look beyond the conventional understanding of dealing with challenges such as climate change that the world is facing.

Higher Education Institutions (HEI) play a significant role to unite diverse stakeholders and carry out planned learning activities that can promote change on both a personal and social level. Transformational research is dependent on the presence of an engaging and valuable problem that participants can make significant contributions in a collaborative manner across disciplines. Transformative learning process facilitates the integration of knowledge across several perspectives. This article explores the dynamic intersection of entrepreneurship and sustainability through the lens of a transformative action research approach in one's teaching practice. A qualitative action research approach is adopted. This research aims to enhance Sustainable Entrepreneurship (SE) as a facilitator at the University and also synthesize insights from lived experiences in Finland, Namibia, Kenya, and South Africa. This article advocates for a transformative paradigm shift, to drive meaningful impact, foster resilience, and catalyse positive change in the pursuit of navigating entrepreneurial sustainable business practices as a facilitator.

Abstract Within acontext of long occupation of the landscape, whose central axis is the Ñirihuao stream and the Casa de Piedra de Roselló site, this paper presents an afterthought and discussion about the use of lithic raw materials throughout 9000 years of occupational sequence, to later discuss the ways of using this landscape by the human groups who inhabited it over time. For this, together with an analysis of the lithic artifacts and the integration of information produced from other lines of archaeological evidence, a theoretical perspective that states that objects and different “inanimate” entities can constitute a way of approaching the relations that existed between the different human practices that occurred in this place; this implies understanding that not only people are active agents in social life. The results point out the diachronic transcendence of this space and its possible appropriation and resignification through time, understanding it as a meaningful and powerful space, where multiple entities were linked in different ways over the years.

Resumen Dentro de un contexto de larga ocupación del paisaje, que tiene como eje central al arroyo Ñirihuao y al sitio Casa de Piedra de Roselló, este trabajo se presenta como una reflexión y discusión acerca del uso de las materias primas líticas a lo largo de 9000 años de secuencia ocupacional. Esto se realiza con el objetivo de discutir los modos de utilización de este paisaje por parte de los grupos humanos que lo habitaron a través del tiempo. Para ello, junto con un análisis de artefactos líticos y la integración de información producida desde otras líneas de evidencia arqueológica, se utilizará una perspectiva teórica que entiende que los objetos y distintas entidades inanimadas pueden constituir una vía de entrada a las relaciones que existieron en las diferentes prácticas humanas que se dieron en este lugar; esto implica entender que no sólo las personas constituyen agentes activos en la vida social. Los resultados advierten sobre la trascendencia diacrónica de este espacio y su posible reapropiación y resignificación a través del tiempo, entendiéndolo como un espacio significativo, donde multiplicidad de entidades se vincularon de diversa manera a lo largo de los años.

This work aims to investigate the experiences of Black female undergraduate students at the University of São Paulo (USP) to understand the challenges, achievements, and coping mechanisms related to their integration and persistence in the university. It highlights how their experiences of exclusion and belonging are shaped by the intersection of race, gender, and class. Through interviews conducted with Black female undergraduate students at USP, I seek to understand the adversities these students face in the academic environment, how they navigate these challenges, and how these experiences intersect with other dimensions of their lives, subjectivities, and identities. On one hand, I explore how experiences of racial discrimination, sexism, and other forms of inequality are perceived in their trajectories. On the other hand, I reflect on how participation in identity-based collectives and student organizations influences the construction of the identity and subjectivity of Black women at the university. Additionally, I examine the emotional impact of marginalization and how support networks and representation contribute to the resilience and retention of these students, elucidating the dynamics that influence their academic and personal lives.

Este trabalho tem como objetivo investigar as experiências de alunas de graduação negras da Universidade de São Paulo, a fim de compreender os desafios, conquistas e mecanismos de enfrentamento relacionados à sua inserção e permanência na universidade, destacando como suas experiências de exclusão e pertencimento são moldadas pela interseção de raça, gênero e classe. Através de entrevistas realizadas com alunas negras de graduação da USP, procuro entender por quais adversidades as estudantes negras passam no ambiente acadêmico, os modos pelos quais lidam com essas experiências e como elas se articulam com as outras dimensões de suas vidas, com as suas subjetividades e identidades. Exploro, por um lado, como as vivências de discriminação racial, machismo e outras formas de desigualdade são percebidos em suas trajetórias e, por outro, reflito em que medida participação em coletivos identitários e organizações estudantis afetam a construção da identidade e subjetividade das mulheres negras na universidade. Além disso, examino o impacto emocional da marginalização e como as redes de apoio e a representatividade contribuem para a resistência e permanência dessas estudantes, elucidando as dinâmicas que influenciam suas vidas acadêmicas e pessoais.

ABSTRACT The existing methodological diversity for locating vulnerability in cities has not succeeded in defining a method that guarantees perfect identification. Among the traditional procedures, we can distinguish between top-down methods, with a regional scale and based predominantly on quantitative procedures of a statistical nature, and bottom-up methods, with a local approach of a qualitative profile. Statistical methods lose effectiveness as the scale of analysis is reduced, and qualitative methods lose effectiveness as the scale of analysis increases. Faced with this paradox, the main contribution of the research is the MIUV (Mixed Identification for Urban Vulnerability) method, which progressively links different levels of integration of the two perspectives, to take advantage of both benefits. The effectiveness of the proposed method has been tested in a specific area of the Valencian Community, where the location of the most disadvantaged environments has been outlined with greater precision at each step.

RESUMEN La diversidad metodológica existente para localizar vulnerabilidad en ciudades no ha conseguido todavía definir un método que garantice una identificación perfecta. Entre los procedimientos tradicionales, distinguimos métodos top-down, de escala regional y basados predominantemente en procedimientos cuantitativos de corte estadístico, y bottom-up, con una aproximación local de perfil cualitativo. Los métodos estadísticos pierden eficacia al reducirse la escala de análisis y los cualitativos, al incrementarla. Frente a esta paradoja, el aporte principal de la investigación es el método IMVU, Identificación Mixta de Vulnerabilidad Urbana, que encadena de forma progresiva distintos niveles de integración de las dos perspectivas, para tratar de aprovechar las bondades de ambas. Se ha comprobado la eficacia del método propuesto sobre un espacio concreto de la Comunitat Valenciana, donde se ha ido perfilando, con más precisión en cada paso, la ubicación de los entornos más desfavorecidos.
