Book Description
En nuestro continente, la Declaración Americana de los Derechos y Deberes del Hombre, la Convención Americana sobre Derechos Humanos y demás instrumentos del corpus iuris interamericano representan el marco de protección de los derechos humanos de las personas migrantes y sus familiares. A partir de dichos instrumentos, y en ejercicio de sus respectivas competencias, la Comisión Interamericana de Derechos Humanos y la Corte Interamericana de Derechos Humanos han desarrollado estándares fundamentales para la consolidación de dicha protección. A través de los capítulos de esta obra colectiva se pretende contribuir a mejorar el entendimiento de la dimensión de los estándares interamericanos en materia migratoria y explorar su potencial impacto transformador. El proceso de interamericanización de los ordenamientos jurídicos nacionales evidencia una tendencia hacia la protección de los derechos humanos de las personas migrantes en América Latina y, en esa medida, orienta el cumplimiento de las obligaciones estatales de respeto y garantía. Ello se suma al impulso de los demás actores de la comunidad de práctica en la región para cumplir el mandato transformador de la Comisión y de la Corte Interamericanas. En síntesis, la interamericanización, como uno de los procesos que apalancan la construcción del ius commune en el ámbito de la movilidad humana, conlleva una relevante visibilización de los avances logrados y hace posible dar voz a las personas migrantes y a sus familias y, entre ellas, a quienes han sido víctimas de violaciones a sus derechos humanos.

Book Description
The North American Mosaic has four overarching features. First, it is, to the extent feasible, based on comparable information on the status and trends of major indicators of the state of the environment in Canada,Mexico, and the United States. Second, the report confirms that these three countries together make up an incredibly complex, dynamic, and interconnected ecosystem in which humans play a dominant and decisive role. Third, the report raises important and sometimes disquieting questions concerning the sustainability of some current trends. Finally, the report is a reminder that our economic, social, and physical well-being are utterly dependent on the life-sustaining services provided by nature. This report emphasizes the importance of developing mutually compatible economic, social, and environmental goals and policies across the three-country region.

Book Description
Although climate change affects everybody it is not gender neutral. It has significant social impacts and magnifies existing inequalities such as the disparity between women and men in their vulnerability and ability to cope with this global phenomenon. This new textbook, edited by one of the authors of the seminal Women and the Environment in the Third World: Alliance for the Future (1988) which first exposed the links between environmental degradation and unequal impacts on women, provides a comprehensive introduction to gender aspects of climate change. Over 35 authors have contributed to the book. It starts with a short history of the thinking and practice around gender and sustainable development over the past decades. Next it provides a theoretical framework for analyzing climate change manifestations and policies from the perspective of gender and human security. Drawing on new research, the actual and potential effects of climate change on gender equality and women's vulnerabilities are examined, both in rural and urban contexts. This is illustrated with a rich range of case studies from all over the world and valuable lessons are drawn from these real experiences. Too often women are primarily seen as victims of climate change, and their positive roles as agents of change and contributors to livelihood strategies are neglected. The book disputes this characterization and provides many examples of how women around the world organize and build resilience and adapt to climate change and the role they are playing in climate change mitigation. The final section looks at how far gender mainstreaming in climate mitigation and adaptation has advanced, the policy frameworks in place and how we can move from policy to effective action. Accompanied by a wide range of references and key resources, this book provides students and professionals with an essential, comprehensive introduction to the gender aspects of climate change.
