Los MENA en Italia: criticidades en la integración entre políticas nacionales e intervenciones locales.
2015
El fenómeno de los MENA está en continuo crecimiento y que es de carácter permanente. Los servicios presentes en el territorio, constantemente tuvieron que responder esencialmente a situaciones de continua emergencia, más que a promover verdaderas intervenciones programáticas. Esto ha terminado por favorecer una metodología de acción que constantemente presenta el riesgo de basarse en presupuestos radicales y poco atentos a la realidad global: de hecho, se continúa a considerar al niño/a extranjero/a como un sujeto de por sí portador de un fuerte malestar, incluso como un sujeto que no necesita de alguna intervención específica. Entre las criticidades de mayor relevancia, existe el problema…

A review of hydropower plants in Romania: Distribution, current knowledge, and their effects on fish in headwater streams
2021
Abstract Hydropower is currently experiencing a boom in southeast Europe. For Romania, the number of hydropower plants is estimated to be between 545 and 674, but little has been published about their environmental impact. We provide the first overview of the geographical distribution of hydropower plants in Romania, supplemented by a review of current knowledge about their environmental impact, and present case study evidence on the effects of small hydropower plants on fish in headwater streams of the Carpathian Mountains. We show that 49% of the documented 545 hydropower plants in Romania are located in Natura 2000 or other protected areas, 5% are located in water bodies with ‘very good’…
Contributions to risk assessment in the departments of welding mechanical engineering companies
2017

This represents an extremely complicated and complex problem because of production system that is a powerful polluting technology, especially of the atmosphere and soil. The formation of gas welding process is the result of electrodes burning, fluxes, and development of bath fused metal the welded seam. In welding processes, human operators are exposed to smoke and toxic gases, arising from the welding process, which can be dangerous to health. Many acute i…

Chapter 3 approaches disability as a reality that may impede the universality of human rights given that the rights of the group in question are “systematically violated”. To achieve an inclusive society in which everyone’s rights are implement, it is necessary to start with an adequate definition of the problem, referring to these individuals as “people with different capacities”, recognizing the place this difference has in society, and the role the State plays in the integration of this difference.

Child-researcher relationships in child protection research : an integrative review
2021
In research with children, particularly those in contact with social and health services, researchers face ethical challenges and have stringent ethical obligations. One obligation regards the need for researchers to adopt a reflexive approach to considering how children’s perspectives and experiences are represented. In this paper, the nature of child-researcher relationships and researchers’ positions are examined to further understanding of how to account for the impact of contexts on meaning making in research with children. An integrative literature review of articles concerned with child protection identified a paucity of researcher accounts of reflexivity. The review articles contain…
