Aproximació a la figura de l'educador/a social com a tècnic/a de joventut en l'àmbit rural

Aquest projecte es posa en marxa l’any 2005 a partir de l’elaboració del Pla Comarcal, dels Plans Locals de joventut, dels Projectes Tècnics de joventut, de les Programacions d’activitats i d’accions concretes. Aquests instruments d’intervenció, en els seus diferents nivells, han de ser coherents amb el Pla Nacional de Joventut de la Generalitat de Catalunya, el qual regeix les línies d’actuació de les polítiques de joventut al nostre país. A grans trets, aquesta és una breu descripció del servei en el qual he dut a terme les meves pràctiques d’educador social i un dels motius pels quals he escollit fer aquest treball, ja que en un primer moment, no tenia la intenció d’elaborar un treball de fi d’estudis que tractes sobre l’àmbit de la meva plaça de pràctiques

Proposta de Parc Rural a la Vall de Llémena

En aquest projecte es presenta una Proposta de Parc Rural a la Vall de Llémena, que ha de servir per definir el marc gestor del desenvolupament d’aquest espai rural. Es pretén dinamitzar el sector agroramader, forestal i de serveis per tal de millorar la situació socioeconòmica de la Vall de Llémena. Això ha d’ajudar a fixar la població al territori, i tenir en compte la integració de les accions a les potencialitats i requeriments del medi. Amb aquesta finalitat, s’han definit una sèrie de línies estratègiques on s’han proposat accions per la Producció Agrària Ecològica i la Integració del turisme a l’activitat agrària. Aquestes accions s’han basat en les opinions i els suggeriments dels llemenencs, detectats al procés de Participació Ciutadana

Distribution of phlebotomine fauna (Diptera: Psychodidae) across an urban-rural gradient in an area of endemic visceral leishmaniasis in northern Brazil

The number of visceral leishmaniasis (VL) cases has increased over the past 10 years in Brazil, especially in the North and Northeast regions of the country. The aim of this study was to evaluate the urbanisation of VL vectors in Barcarena, Pará, an area in northern Brazil where VL is endemic. Sandflies were captured using Centers for Disease Control (CDC) light traps along an urban-rural gradient. The CDC traps were installed inside hen houses at a height of 150 cm. A total of 5,089 sandflies were collected and 11 species were identified. The predominant species was Lutzomyia longipalpis (rate of 95.15%), which suggests its participation in the transmission of VL. A total of 1,451 Lu. longipalpis females were dissected and no Leishmania infections were detected. Most of the sandflies were captured at the border of a forest (88.25%) and no flies were captured in the urban area, which suggests that transmission is still restricted to rural sites. However, the fact that a specimen was collected in an intermediate area indicates that urbanisation is a real possibility and that vector monitoring is important.

Serological evidence of hantavirus infection in rural and urban regions in the state of Amazonas, Brazil

Hantavirus disease is caused by the hantavirus, which is an RNA virus belonging to the family Bunyaviridae. Hantavirus disease is an anthropozoonotic infection transmitted through the inhalation of aerosols from the excreta of hantavirus-infected rodents. In the county of Itacoatiara in the state of Amazonas (AM), Brazil, the first human cases of hantavirus pulmonary and cardiovascular syndrome were described in July 2004. These first cases were followed by two fatal cases, one in the municipality of Maués in 2005 and another in Itacoatiara in 2007. In this study, we investigated the antibody levels to hantavirus in a population of 1,731 individuals from four different counties of AM. Sera were tested by IgG/IgM- enzyme-linked immune-sorbent assay using a recombinant nucleocapsid protein of the Araraquara hantavirus as an antigen. Ten sera were IgG positive to hantavirus (0.6%). Among the positive sera, 0.8% (1/122), 0.4% (1/256), 0.2% (1/556) and 0.9% (7/797) were from Atalaia do Norte, Careiro Castanho, Itacoatiara and Lábrea, respectively. None of the sera in this survey were IgM-positive. Because these counties are distributed in different areas of AM, we can assume that infected individuals are found throughout the entire state, which suggests that hantavirus disease could be a local emerging health problem.

Exploring the association between Trypanosoma cruzi infection in rural communities and environmental changes in the southern Gran Chaco

The association between land use and land cover changes between 1979-2004 in a 2.26-million-hectare area south of the Gran Chaco region and Trypanosoma cruzi infection in rural communities was analysed. The extent of cultural land, open and closed forests and shrubland up to 3,000 m around rural communities in the north, northwest and west of the province of Córdoba was estimated using Landsat satellite imagery. The T. cruzi prevalence was estimated with a cross-sectional serological survey conducted in the rural communities. The land cover showed the same patterns in the 1979, 1999 and 2004 satellite imagery in both the northwest and west regions, with shrinking regions of cultured land and expanding closed forests away from the community. The closed forests and agricultural land coverage in the north region showed the same trend as in the northwest and west regions in 1979 but not in 1999 or 2004. In the latter two years, the coverage remote from the communities was either constant or changed in opposite ways from that of the northwest and west regions. The changes in closed forests and cultured vegetation alone did not have a significant, direct relationship with the occurrence of rural communities with at least one person infected by T. cruzi. This study suggests that the overall decrease in the prevalence of T. cruzi is a consequence of a combined effect of vector control activities and changes in land use and land cover.
