En esta publicación el lector encontrará los resultados de los últimos trabajos que, desde distintas disciplinas y ópticas, llevaron a cabo los investigadores de las Cátedras Unesco e Infancia de la Universidad Externado de Colombia. Dichas cátedras son espacios de discusión crítica acerca de las garantías efectivas de los derechos fundamentales mediante la superación de las violencias y el ejercicio de la democracia. La primera parte del libro contiene reflexiones acerca del derecho como fuerza transformadora de la realidad; los nexos entre las violencias pasadas y presentes en Latinoamérica; la conexión entre historia, política y subjetividad frente a los sujetos de las injusticias; la justicia reconstructiva y los derechos de las víctimas; la reivindicación de la memoria ineludible de muchos pueblos de Colombia; la Ley de Víctimas y Restitución de Tierras con relación al derecho a la memoria, al contrato de transacción y a la salud mental; y, por último, las actitudes favorables en la escuela desde una concepción de una pedagogía de los derechos humanos. La segunda parte del texto está compuesta por tres artículos: el primero aporta elementos para el diseño y la implementación de políticas y estrategias educativas a partir del análisis crítico de las propuestas de formación para la paz, la convivencia y la ciudadanía; el segundo analiza el principio de excepcionalidad de la privación de la libertad en el sistema de responsabilidad penal para adolescentes, tanto en la definición normativa como en las prácticas jurídicas generadas; y el tercero responde a dos concretos interrogantes acerca del sentido del artículo 44 de la Constitución Política, desde la jurisprudencia sentada por la Corte Constitucional colombiana

La garantía efectiva de los derechos humanos, hoy más que nunca, plantea retos difícilmente superables desde las ciencias jurídicas exclusivamente. Es por esta razón que la Cátedra Unesco y la Cátedra Infancia han convocado a otras disciplinas y a los miembros de la Red UNITWIN para llevar a cabo investigaciones sobre gobernanza y los temas objeto de estudio de ambas Cátedras. Este libro es el resultado de esas contribuciones. En la primera sección de esta publicación el lector podrá encontrar cuatro capítulos internacionales que sirven de preámbulo al tema de la memoria histórica: uno dedicado al análisis semiótico de las palabras “verdad” y “justicia”, dos a las políticas de seguridad pública y uno al análisis comparado de la justicia transicional en Colombia y España. Posteriormente, se presentan artículos que abordan la memoria histórica desde distintas perspectivas: la de patrimonio cultural; la de la salud mental; la de la niñez víctima de desplazamiento forzado; la de la relación entre memoria colectiva y dinámicas psicosociales; y la de la apropiación del territorio, generadora de nuevas subjetividades. En la segunda sección se abordan tres problemas que afectan la garantía efectiva de los derechos de algunos niños y niñas en Colombia: para empezar, las prácticas jurídicas que ignoran la alternatividad en el Sistema de Responsabilidad Penal para Adolescentes; posteriormente, el desconocimiento de los derechos sexuales y reproductivos de las personas menores de edad en situación de discapacidad intelectual; y para terminar, algunas definiciones y prácticas que impiden la formación para la autonomía.

The Routledge International Handbook of Social Development, Social Work, and the Sustainable Development Goals answers the question: What is the contribution of social development and social work to the Sustainable Development Goals? The success of these goals requires implementation, and each of the 17 objectives for sustainable social progress have a social dimension. The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), like the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) before them, were born of a larger social development movement which over the last 25 years has become increasingly mainstream in the fields of international development, sustainability, and social work. These practitioners are essential to the implementation of the SDGs. This handbook examines how the SDGs are being implemented in diverse contexts. No previous work has surveyed social development and social work’s contribution to the SDGs nor represented voices from the Global South on the SDGs. This book broadens the current literature by focusing on key sites throughout the Global South and featuring underrepresented voices from Africa, Asia, and Latin America. These regions are vitally important to assessing the SDGs, as this is where innovative social development projects are occurring, and where social workers are playing a leading role in achieving the SDGs. The book is divided into eight parts: • Context of Social Development, Social Work, and the SDGs • Perspectives on the SDGs • Case Studies on Engagement with the SDG Agenda • Case Studies on Ending Poverty • Case Studies on Health and Well-Being • Case Studies on Gender Equality • Case Studies on Climate and Sustainability • Case Studies on Governance, Peace, and Justice It comprises 35 newly written chapters by 74 authors. It will be of interest to a broad interdisciplinary audience of scholars, educators, and students in the fields of social development, social welfare, social work, social policy, human rights, international relations, political science, international affairs, sustainability, community development, area studies, and development studies.

The book provides comparative information about the materialization of the 2030 Agenda in urban policy in ten countries located in Europe and Latin America. The Declaration of Quito is the starting point for the implementation of SDGs into public policies in urban areas. However, there are fewer efforts to understand the impact that the 2030 Agenda and, specifically, the instruments developed for its application in cities. The information of each country is presented in relation to two aspects: the construction of a public policy style in each country and the results and impacts on urban public policies implemented in specific cities within the national frameworks. The first means the emergence of a public policy framework and its materialization in public policy instruments. In this regard, the book raises the following questions: To what extent have the SDGs come to generate a common framework for cities in the countries? And how Urban SDGs are translated to national urban policies? The second, results and impacts at the local level, is related to two aspects: a) substantive: the goals of the policy and b) procedural: management aspects related to the policy design, governance, and institutional capacity building.

The teacher’s role is to create opportunities that intrinsically motivate children to externalize their thoughts. Human beings have multiple means of expression: this is powerful when children have the opportunity to have a real voice. The realities of children’s experiences in their local communities are powerful resources for the language curriculum and help to create an understanding of the value the languages and cultures of children and teachers bring from a multicultural perspective. Thus, teachers can help children develop their cultural and linguistic identities to promote multiculturalism, multilingualism, and translingualism so they can thrive in a complex and changing world. The Handbook of Research on Socio-Cultural and Linguistic Perspectives on Language and Literacy Development approaches language and literacy development from a socio-cultural and linguistic perspective. This book offers global perspectives on language and literacy from international experts working with both children and educators. It offers readers a diversity of voices and experiences of professionals in the field that can inform their teaching and research. Covering topics such as critical literacy, emotional engagement, and multilingual resources, this major reference work is an indispensable resource for administrators and educators of both K-12 and higher education, pre-service teachers, teacher educators, biblio-therapists, librarians, researchers, and academicians.

This report details a comparative analysis of early learning guidelines (ELGs) for infants and toddlers less than 3 years of age in Latin America and the Caribbean. The 19 ELGs evaluated are utilized by 12 national and 7 regional programs located in 13 countries in the region. Three types of programs are included in this report: parenting programs (n=3), community centers (n=4) and child development centers (n=12). Two of the twelve child development center programs fall beyond the age range of this research (0-3 years) and are included as case studies. While parenting programs are included in this analysis, caution should be given to directly comparing their results to the results from community center or child development center programs. As described in the paper, parenting programs represent a distinct type of intervention.

Genre across the Curriculum will function as a "good" textbook, one not for the student, but for the teacher, and one with an eye on the context of writing. Here you will find models of practice, descriptions written by teachers who have integrated the teaching of genre into their pedagogy in ways that both support and empower the student writer. While authors here look at courses across disciplines and across a range of genres, they are similar in presenting genre as situated within specific classrooms, disciplines, and institutions. Their assignments embody the pedagogy of a particular teacher, and student responses here embody students' prior experiences with writing. In each chapter, the authors define a particular genre, define the learning goals implicit in assigning that genre, explain how they help their students work through the assignment, and, finally, discuss how they evaluate the writing their students do in response to their teaching.
