Migración y desigualdades ante la pandemia de covid-19 en México y Estados Unidos available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Ante el nuevo contexto que vivimos, el MIGDEP se dio a la tarea de generar una discusión académica, para informar la manera en la que la COVID-19 impactará diferentes dimensiones de los procesos de la migración en México y Estados Unidos, así como para reflexionar sobre la necesidad de aminorar sus impactos negativos. Recogida esa discusión en esta obra, se documenta y analiza el fenómeno migratorio en/entre México y Estados unidos ante la pandemia durante el primer semestre de 2020, enfocándose en el contexto político e institucional, los impactos económicos de la enfermedad y la exacerbación de vulnerabilidades para algunas poblaciones migrantes. Además, se reflexiona sobre el modo de crear redes solidarias de apoyo y defensa de los derechos humanos de estas poblaciones con el fin de disminuir las desigualdades y vulnerabilidades. El libro reúne 18 textos —además de la presentación, el prefacio y el epílogo— de autores de ambos países: nueve textos de autores que radican en México y nueve más de autores que viven en Estados Unidos. También se buscó reunir miradas de investigadores y expertos que dialogan desde la academia, las organizaciones de la sociedad civil y los sectores público y privado que trabajan con y para poblaciones migrantes, lo que ha permitido brindar una visión interdisciplinaria.

Download and read online ebook Migration and Inequality write by Tanja Bastia. This book was released on 2013-03-05. Migration and Inequality available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. The ‘migration-development’ nexus has emerged as an important area of both research and policy over the last ten years. However, most of the interest has focused on the potential that migration holds for poverty alleviation. Relatively little attention has been paid to the relationship between migration and inequality, particularly on inequality as a consequence of migration. This is unfortunate, given that inequality is emerging as an important area of inquiry within development studies. This edited collection explores the relationship between migration and inequality in Africa, Asia and Latin America by taking into account economic and social inequalities. While the focus on inequality as opposed to poverty is in itself original, the book offers additional points of interest. First, it combines chapters on internal and international migration, thereby challenging the current focus in the migration literature that focuses almost exclusively on cross-border migration. Internal migration greatly outnumbers cross-border moves. Yet policy-makers as well as most studies focus on cross-border international migration. We are only just beginning to unravel the relationship between internal and cross-border migration. Second, the theme of inequality complements the existing focus in the migration-development nexus on issues of poverty. Third, the chapters focus on both economic and social inequalities, often combining an analysis of different types of inequalities. The book also covers governance and migrants’ rights; gender and intersectionality; and health. The chapters in this edited volume make an original contribution to debates on the migration-development nexus as well as the literature on inequality, which often tends to focus on economic measurements of inequality at the expense of including a thorough analysis of social inequality.

Download and read online ebook University and School Collaborations During a Pandemic write by Fernando M. Reimers. This book was released on 2022. University and School Collaborations During a Pandemic available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Based on twenty case studies of universities worldwide, and on a survey administered to leaders in 101 universities, this open access book shows that, amidst the significant challenges caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, universities found ways to engage with schools to support them in sustaining educational opportunity. In doing so, they generated considerable innovation, which reinforced the integration of the research and outreach functions of the university. The evidence suggests that universities are indeed open systems, in interaction with their environment, able to discover changes that can influence them and to change in response to those changes. They are also able, in the success of their efforts to mitigate the educational impact of the pandemic, to create better futures, as the result of the innovations they can generate. This challenges the view of universities as "ivory towers" being isolated from the surrounding environment and detached from local problems. As they reached out to schools, universities not only generated clear and valuable innovations to sustain educational opportunity and to improve it, this process also contributed to transform internal university processes in ways that enhanced their own ability to deliver on the third mission of outreach

The effects of the COVID-19 pandemic have spread to all areas of human life, altering the way we interact, crippling economies and bringing about profound changes in societies. The pandemic has highlighted and exacerbated the major structural gaps in the region, and it is clear that the costs of inequality have become unsustainable and that it is necessary to rebuild with equality and sustainability, aiming for the creation of a true welfare state, long overdue in the region.
