Financial Inclusion and the Use of Technologies in the Fishing and Aquaculture Sector of Baja California Sur(2024)
Summary:
Determine the levels of financial and digital inclusion in the small-scale fishing and aquaculture sector, taking as a study case producers from localities in the municipality of La Paz, with the aim of promoting mechanisms and actions to reduce their economic vulnerability and improve inclusion.
Vulnerability, adaptation and diversification of small-scale fishers: Bahía de La Paz (2022)
Summary:
This project has the objective of establishing a socioeconomic base line and fishing and aquaculture production trends in the Bahía de La Paz area in order to, with information on local knowledge and economic activities in adoption, propose strategies to improve economic diversification and reduce the vulnerability of workers in the fishing sector, within a framework of sustainability, adaptation to the new normality. The proposals will be built from the interaction between local/ancestral and academic knowledge, and will be strengthened in knowledge appropriation workshops and training in two community centers of the civil society organizations associated with this project.
Social impacts and University Social Responsibility (RSU)
This project is related to the Sustainable Development Goals: 1) End of poverty 8) Decent work and economic growth, 10) Reduction of inequalities, 12) Responsible production and consumption, 14) Underwater life, and 17) Alliances to achieve the objectives.
Economic diversification to reduce vulnerability and promote sustainability of fishing resources: Puerto Chale, Baja California Sur and Isla de Cedros, Baja California (2021).
Summary
Strategies are required to face current challenges such as changes in fishing catch volumes and social demands. The objective of this project is to estimate the impact of economic diversification as a management strategy to improve the well-being of small-scale fishers and the sustainable development of their communities, and thus promote good management practices. For this, two localities with predominant fishing activity will be analyzed.
Social Impact and University Social Responsibility:
It affects the SDGs of responsible production and consumption, decent work and economic growth; University Social Responsibility also applies, which is committed to linking with vulnerable sectors / communities and supporting the consolidation of academic bodies.
Climate Change Adaptation Capacity: A Proposal to Measure Vulnerability and Resilience to the Impact of Tropical Cyclones in Baja California Sur (2020)
Summary:
This study consisted of developing a vulnerability index for the main coastal cities of Baja California Sur, according to the methodology proposed by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) in order to identify the level of vulnerability of households in the scales: highly vulnerable, moderately vulnerable and least vulnerable. This made it possible to know the distribution of households according to these scales and to estimate the marginal effects on the probability that households are on some scale, in the face of changes in spatial, social, economic and institutional variables.
Social Impact and University Social Responsibility:
Influences the SDGs of action for the climate, sustainable cities and communities; University Social Responsibility also applies, which is committed to linking with vulnerable sectors / communities and supporting the consolidation of academic bodies.
