He founded and leads Pristine Seas, a project that combines exploration, research, and media to support and empower local communities and inspire country leaders to protect the last wild places in the ocean. Pristine Seas has helped to create 22 of the largest marine reserves on the planet, covering an area of 5.8 million square kilometers.Runtime: 55:25 minutesJoin President Ángel Cabrera in conversation with conservationist Enric Sala, current National Geographic Explorer-in-Residence and author of The Nature of Nature: Why We Need the Wild, which makes a clear case for why protecting nature is our best health insurance, and why it makes economic sense
Contrapunteos de Lydia Cabrera
No full textEven today in the history of Cuban anthropology, little attention is paid to the writer and anthropologist Lydia Cabrera, who has only recently begun to be part of the list of intellectuals in official Cuban culture. However, because of her work and life trajectory, Cabrera can be considered the modern founder of studies on Afro-Cuban religions.
The main purpose of this text is to analyse Lydia Cabrera’s ethnographic work based on the idea that there was a ‘counterpoint’, a dialogue, a metaphorical game, between the liminal identity of the author herself – manifested in a racial, cultural, gender, social and political sense – and her interest and dedication to the contribution of slaves and the population of African origin to the history, culture and, ultimately, the identity of their Cuban homeland.Todavía hoy en la historia de la antropología cubana se presta poca atención a la escritora y antropóloga Lydia Cabrera, quien solo muy recientemente ha empezado a formar parte de la nómina intelectual de la cultura cubana oficial. Sin embargo, en función de su obra y trayectoria vital puede considerarse a Cabrera como la fundadora moderna de los estudios sobre las religiones afrocubanas.
El objeto central de este texto es analizar el trabajo etnográfico de Lydia Cabrera a partir de la idea de que existe un contrapunteo, un diálogo, un juego metafórico, entre la identidad liminar de la propia autora -manifiesta en un sentido racial, cultural, de género, social y político- y su interés y dedicación a la aportación de los esclavos y la población de origen africano a la historia, a la cultura y, en última instancia, a la identidad misma de su patria cubana

Este documento presenta una breve revisión histórica de la evolución y composición de los ingresos y gastos de Cabrera 1985 - 2022. Para realizar nuestro análisis empleamos datos del Sistema de Información del Formulario Único Territorial (SISFUT) y del Departamento Nacional de Planeación (DNP). Para permitir la comparabilidad durante el periodo, todas las cifras son expresadas a precios constantes del 2022 y en términos per cápita. Es decir, se controla por la inflación y por el crecimiento poblacional del municipio o distrito. Así mismo, esto permitirá realizar comparaciones con otras entidades territoriales de Colombia similares.
Para lograr lo anterior, este trabajo está dividido en seis sesiones: la primera sección es la presente introducción. La segunda y tercera sección muestran la evolución de los ingresos y los gastos respectivamente. En la cuarta sección se exponen los Indicadores de Desempeño Fiscal (IDF) para el Distrito.

Intraspecific variation. This is a relatively uniform species, the main variability being associated with the basic pattern of the elytral vittae. Sometimes, the marking on the humeral callus continues externally of the yellow vittae, or it is interrupted and looks like two or three isolated spots. In some specimens the yellow vittae fade to yellowish brown, or the marginal vittae are absent, or they may be partly or entirely confluent at the apex and medial area. The head varies from parrot green to yellowish brown. The labrum and mouthparts vary from chestnut to dark brown. The antennae (except the basal antennomere) are unicolorous, but varying from cinnamon to dark brown. The scutellum varies from yellowish to amber colored. The femora and tibiae are frequently lime green. In some specimens, the prosternal surface varies from parrot green to yellowish brown, and the meso- and metasternum and abdomen may be green to yellowish brown. Etymology. Collicola, meaning that lives in the hills, refers to the environment where this species has been found. Biological notes. This species was collected on pumpkin and maize, two of the main hosts of Diabroticina throughout their distribution. Field-collected adults survived in a rearing chamber at 25 + 1 ºC, 14: 10 (L:D) h photoperiod, in 1.5 -liter cages for up to 4 weeks, during which period mating was observed, and about 80 eggs were obtained. However, no eggs hatched when incubated at 25 + 1 ºC in Petri dishes lined with moist tissue paper, suggesting this species has an egg diapause, a common trait of the Diabrotica in the D.virgifera group (Krysan 1982). Geographic range. The specimens described herein were collected in the vicinity of Balcozna (27 º 53 ’ 30 ’’ S; 65 º 44 ’ 04’’ W), Province of Catamarca, at an altitude of 1300 m, and this is the only area where the authors have found this species so far. Type material. Holotype: male, ARGENTINA: Catamarca: Balcozna, 14 -II, 2002, on Cucurbita maxima Duchense (Cucurbitaceae), Cabrera Walsh col. Paratypes: 2 males and 3 females, with the same locality, date and collector as the holotype.Published as part of Cabrera, Nora & Walsh, Guillermo Cabrera, 2010, Diabrotica collicola (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae), a new species of leaf beetle from Argentina and key to species of the Diabrotica virgifera group and relatives, pp. 45-55 in Zootaxa 2683 on pages 46-52, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.19937
