    (Universidad Santo Tomás, 2024) Gonzalez Brand, Anderson Brand; Aliaga, Felipe; Universidad Santo Tomás
    Abstract This study is part of the thesis that analyzes how institutional functions and the social construction of institutionalized childhood influence the experiences of children, adolescents, and youth undergoing adoptability processes at the Colombian Institute of Family Welfare (ICBF) internados in Bogotá during the 2023-2024 period. The research is qualitative, analytical-descriptive, and has a hermeneutic approach. The study focuses on how the dynamics and functions of the ICBF internados affect the experiences of children and adolescents in their transition toward an autonomous and independent life, highlighting the interaction between minors and institutional staff. The research examines the coexistence agreements and ethical code that guide interactions within the institutions, promoting values such as respect, solidarity, and cooperation. Additionally, through interviews and direct observation, the study addresses the challenges, dreams, and realities of the children and adolescents, focusing on their socialization process, education, and life project development. This research emphasizes the importance of adaptation to the protection system and the interpersonal dynamics within the foundations, with the goal of improving the living conditions and social integration of the children and adolescents under protection.

    La Curaqueria: Preservación de los Saberes Tradicionales a Trávez de la Comercialización de Maíz Morado
    (Universidad Santo Tomás, 2024-06-17) Tinjaca Dominguez, Laura Camila; Saenz Acosta, Hernando; Universidad Santo Tomás; https://scienti.minciencias.gov.co/cvlac/visualizador/generarCurriculoCv.do?cod_rh=0000444723; https://orcid.org/0000-0003-4166-317X
    Ancestral knowledge is part of the historical construction of territories and individuals, being one of the ways in which they are identified and constructed in a given geographical space. The native seed is one of this knowledge, which allows communities and the population to achieve food security. For this reason, some social groups seek to conserve and care for their native practices. In this sense, the Curaqueria is an enterprise that is built from the dream of being a project that, through a commercial exercise, can be a space for the dissemination of this knowledge, as an exercise in food sovereignty. To this end, a description of the peasant market was made, located in the artisans' plaza in Bogotá. From this, a mixed analysis was carried out, taking as reference a survey of 27 people to understand the importance of healthy eating and the scope that the venture could achieve. Next, a non-participant observation and two interviews with peasant producers were carried out, this in relation to the qualitative method. In addition, a documentary review was carried out to expand the analysis. From this study it was evident that women farmers defend the use of native seeds and promote clean production and planting in the markets. These practices reflect their worldview about the earth and their importance in caring for it. Through the collection of information in rural markets, the importance of considering the detrimental effects of monoculture in the cultivation of purple corn has been discovered. Likewise, it has been found that customers prefer clean ingredients and question the inclusion of sweet additives. Furthermore, it has been shown that the venture has communicated the concepts adequately and concisely.

    Perspectivas De Formalización En El Reciclaje En Bogotá. Un Análisis Socioambiental Del Contraste Entre La Vida Cotidiana De Los Recicladores Y La Normativa Gubernamental
    (Universidad Santo Tomás, 2024-05-10) Mahecha Aldana, Manuela; Aliaga, Felipe; Catalina, Acosta; Universidad Santo Tomás
    In the city of Bogotá, specifically in the Suba locality, recycling associations are working tirelessly to formalize their work and transform their organizations into microenterprises dedicated to waste management. However, the requirements established by government regulations to complete this formalization process prove difficult for many recyclers to meet, as they face significant personal and professional shortcomings. This situation ends up benefiting only the associations with the greatest financial solvency, deepening inequalities in the sector. Consequently, this document presents a comparison between the main requirements imposed by government regulations and the working life faced by recyclers.

    Campo Elías Delgado En El Espejo De Los Medios: Un Estudio Sociológico De La Representación Del Crimen
    (Universidad Santo Tomás, 2024) Rodríguez Duarte, Juan Sebastian; Alzate, Juan Felipe; Universidad Santo Tomás; https://scienti.minciencias.gov.co/cvlac/visualizador/generarCurriculoCv.do?cod_rh=0001934237; https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=AyO7gHoAAAAJ&hl=es&oi=ao; https://orcid.org/0000-0003-3834-8822
    This investigation analyzes how the newspaper El Tiempo constructed the media image of Campo Elías Delgado and the motives attributed to his crime. Through a qualitative approach and using Grounded Theory, an open, axial and selective coding of the journalistic articles was carried out, identifying core categories such as "Media Construction of Crime", "Psychological Aspects and Mental Health of the Individual" and "Social Context and Previous Experiences". The findings reveal that the media analyzed mainly attributed Campo Elías Delgado's actions to psychopathy, establishing it as the fundamental cause of the massacre. This focus on an individual explanation simplified complex narratives and contributed to the stigmatization of the individual, ignoring social and contextual factors. This demonstrates how the media can influence public perception, highlighting the importance of a critical analysis of media representations and their social implications.

    This qualitative study analyzes the experiences of detransition among users of the "r/detrans" community on Reddit during 2024, employing netnography and grounded theory. The research reveals how mental health factors, such as anxiety and depression, along with gender norms and stereotypes, influence decisions to transition and detransition, impacting self-perception and identity. Additionally, patterns of rejection and lack of understanding in the social environment of these individuals were identified. The findings highlight the need for specialized support services and contribute to theoretical debates on gender, questioning the binary sex/gender system and proposing an inclusive and flexible view of identity.

    Los Derechos Sexuales Y Reproductivos En Hombres Jóvenes, En La Universidad Santo Tomás
    (Universidad Santo Tomás, 2024) Sierra Neiza, Juan David; Arteaga Aldana, Santiago; Henao Albarracín, Ana María; Universidad Santo Tomás; https://scienti.minciencias.gov.co/cvlac/visualizador/generarCurriculoCv.do?cod_rh=0001335269; https://scienti.minciencias.gov.co/cvlac/visualizador/generarCurriculoCv.do?cod_rh=0001753591; https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=zGCrKJkAAAAJ&hl=es&oi=ao; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-7529-9225
    Sexual and reproductive rights have historically focused on women and their role in the conception process, reinforcing patriarchal logic and excluding the male population from these influences and appropriations. Although Sexual and Reproductive Rights (SRR) were developed for the entire population, analysis from historical, managerial, and political perspectives—within the State, the Ministry of Health, and the formulation of public policies—reveals that the gender inequality gap deepens by failing to address the realities and needs of men, as well as their questions about sex, happiness, and conception. This study aims to describe the knowledge, perceptions, and interests of cisgender male students at the University of Santo Tomás to promote a reconfiguration of culture and norms. This reconfiguration seeks to foster greater inclusion and empowerment of men in the exercise of their sexuality and sexual and reproductive rights, overcoming the patriarchal logic that dominates this field.

    This research explores how social representations of the environment influence pro-environmental behaviors in La Riviera neighborhood, an urban community in Bogotá near the Jaboque wetland. The need to understand the relationship between collective perceptions and conservation practices in this ecosystem motivated the study, guided by an interpretive paradigm using interviews and focus groups. Co-occurrence analysis, thematic analysis, and sociological discourse analysis, along with hermeneutic triangulation, enabled the interpretation of anthropocentric, naturalistic, and systemic representations of the environment. Findings show that an anthropocentric view reduces environmental commitment to an instrumental value, while a systemic view fosters critical collective action. This study, grounded in critical environmental thought and social representation theory, underscores the importance of contextualized environmental education to redefine the relationship with the environment and encourage sustainable practices that transcend a utilitarian focus.

    Indigenous communities in Latin America have historically been submerged in the violation of human rights due to colonization and continuous cultural violence. In addition, indigenous women have been building an agenda for equality in political participation and a life free of violence, among other demands that are affected by cultural practices and gender oppression. Purpose: In this sense, the purpose is to establish the sociopolitical relevance of the intersectionality of Gender and Ethnicity in public policies, taking into account CONPES 4080. Methodology: A documentary research was carried out that analyzes public policies in Colombia related to gender, ethnicity, intersectionality, and gender-based violence. CONPES 4080 was selected, which focuses on gender equality and sustainable development. Results: The lack of an intersectional approach that considers the ethnicity of indigenous women was evident, which generates gaps in the attention to their specific needs and in the understanding of the barriers they face in political participation and the prevention of gender violence. Conclusions: It is concluded that the implementation of the intersectional gender-ethnicity approach at the methodological, conceptual and statistical level is necessary to adequately address gender-based violence that occurs among indigenous women.

    Reflecting on one's own identity in the passage of time, leads to consider the arrival at old age, making it possible to look beyond the socially rooted or the familiarly established regarding this last stage of life. This research identifies various ways of living old age and care practices for older adults, allowing a first approach to the concept of 'good aging' integrating both concepts of the sociological theory of aging by Settersten and Angel (2011), as well as the dialogue held with the San Pedro Care Community of Bogota, in response to the question: how is care for the elderly manifested in the construction of good aging with the San Pedro Care Community of Bogota in 2023-2024-01? .

    Historically, fashion has reflected social and political changes, but in recent decades, the mass production model has created issues such as environmental pollution, labor exploitation, and an increase in textile waste. Zara, a brand under Inditex, popularized this model, characterized by rapid production on a large scale to respond to market trends. "Fast fashion" involves high production with cheap materials and low-cost labor, leading to problems such as excessive water use and CO2 emissions, along with poor working conditions. To address these issues, alternatives like the circular economy and responsible consumption have emerged, promoting the reuse and recycling of clothing to reduce environmental impact. Segunda Aura is a second-hand clothing venture in Bogotá aiming to transform mass consumption into a more sustainable model. It offers affordable clothing and services that promote reuse, such as upcycling workshops and clothing swaps, with the goal of raising environmental awareness and reducing compulsive consumption. The venture also seeks to create partnerships with other stakeholders to expand its reach and visibility, proposing a sustainable fashion model that meets the needs of the modern consumer. With a suitable legal structure and a clear business plan, Segunda Aura aims to contribute to a positive change in the textile industry.
