Authors: Foster Bob , Saputra Jumadil , Johansyah Muhamad Deni , Muhammad Zikri
Published: June 2022

A value chain plays a crucial role in increasing production efficiency due to business uncertainty and high competition between business entities. Of these, the business must carry out the activities effectively and efficiently to achieve maximum profit. However, the study that focuses on the moderating role of the value chain in its relationship to firm performance is still limited. Thus, the present study aims to examine the effect of intellectual capital and environmental uncertainty toward firm performance and the mediating role of the value chain in the relationship between intellectual capital and environmental uncertainty to firm performance. This study was designed using a quantitative approach through an online survey. A total of 207 staff from non-financial state-owned enterprises consists of 10 clusters and 76 companies. The data were analyzed using the Structural Equation Modeling with Partial Least Square method (SEM-PLS) and assisted by statistical software, namely SmartPLS 3.3.3. The result indicated that intellectual capital and environmental uncertainty have a significant effect on firm performance. Also, this study found that a value chain moderates the relationship of intellectual capital and environmental uncertainty toward firm performance. In conclusion, this study has successfully examined the effect of intellectual capital and environmental uncertainty on firm performance—also, the role of a value chain in the relationship of studied variables. In addition, the findings of this study showed that a value chain is an important tool for companies to improve their business performance.

Discrete-event simulation-based decision making of Just-In-Time strategies for precast concrete supply chain using batch delivery and offsite inventory level
Authors: Phan Thanh-Duy , Athigakunagorn Nathee
Published: June 2022

Precast concrete (PC) can potentially improve construction industry projects when used as a primary process in the precast concrete supply chain (PCSC). Successful inventory reduction and on-time delivery are essential in the PCSC because of critical scheduling and cost factors. To solve these challenges, this study applied Just-In-Time (JIT) strategies in the PCSC using the Discrete-Event Simulation (DES) model to help manufacturers identify the optimal decision. The factors considered were offsite inventory levels (based on days buffered) and batch delivery decisions that reduced supply penalties and improved construction performance. The model was validated based on a precast project experiment in Vietnam; the model provided a saving of 52% in manufacturer penalties and reduced construction idle work by 77%. An optimal combined decision was provided for the manufacturer, such as a 1day-4batch decision with maximum benefit and a 2day-2batch decision for safety using an uncertainty risk consideration in the PC wall panel study case. This research contributes a tool to help manufacturers in decision making and promotes the use of JIT applications/strategies in the PCSC process.
BIAS: Epistemological Bias in the Physical and Social Sciences
Authors: Amilah binti Awang Abd Rahman
Published: June 2022

Bias: Epistemological Bias in the Physical and Social Sciences is a multi-authored book by eleven authors and edited by Abdelwahab Elmessiri. It critiques the bias in methodology and terminology suffered by the research, especially among the Third World intellectuals in general, and the Arab-Islamic world in particular. The bias, according to the book, is about the abandoning of the indigenous paradigms and biases that arise from their own existential and historical situations as a result of encountering the Western framework and paradigm as not only a foreign source but also believed to be dominant even among the Arab writers and researchers. The danger of this phenomenon is so pervasive that it tends to distort the whole process and gives serious effect to the future of the affected culture and civilization.

“Was he slow?”: The Performance of Masculinity in Edgar Wright’s Action Musical Baby Driver
Authors: Bowen Kate
Published: June 2022

Edgar Wright’s Baby Driver (2017) has been heralded by critics as a unique generic blend of action and musical. With critical acclaim mostly reserved for the film’s cross-generic appeal, little scholarly attention has been paid to how genre in Baby Driver works to represent and explore gender relations. The film’s combination of these generic elements (as an “action musical”), I believe, opens up possibilities for a questioning of how the film represents the masculinity of its action-hero as a performance. Applying Judith Butler’s theory of gender as a performance, I argue that Baby Driver represents millennial masculinity as a kind of “play” in order to interrogate traditional action-cinema tropes of hegemonic masculinity.
Deepfake Nightmares, Synthetic Dreams: A Review of Dystopian and Utopian Discourses Around Deepfakes, and Why the Collapse of Reality May Not Be Imminent—Yet
Authors: Broinowski Anna
Published: June 2022

Since appearing in 2017, deepfakes have inspired a predominantly negative public response. Substantial research has been devoted to the danger that deepfake technology—as a deceptive audiovisual device—poses to democratic and evidentiary systems; and to the development of AI and legislative mechanisms to control it. However, the diverse and multiplying ways in which deepfake practitioners, researchers, and consumers are now viewing, framing, and using deepfake technology—and its positive applications in commerce, science, education, and the arts—deserve closer attention. This article assesses the plausibility of dystopian and utopian narratives around deepfakes to offer a more nuanced understanding of deepfake technology as a novel synthetic media tool: one which, like any screen-based illusion, can be harnessed for malign and benign purposes, and whose cultural and political power rests—for now at least—not with the machines that create it, but the human beings who use it.

Published: June 2022

Background: Intestinal worm infestation is a global health problem and serious concern for the third world countries. The most common intestinal parasites of helminthes that inhabit in human gut include Nematodes (roundworms) and Platyhelminthes (Cestodes and trematodes) which are wide spread throughout the world. Prevention and control of all parasitic infections including helminthes require research work based on the identification of parasites and associated predisposing factors. Objective: The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence and associated risk factors of intestinal parasitic infections of helminthes among the asymptomatic primary school children at Woldia town, North Wollo Zone North Eastern Ethiopia. Methods: The study design was school based cross sectional study from November 2019 to February 2020. The technique of sampling was simple random sampling method and the sample size was computed based on the formula proposed by single population proportion to include 442 study participants. The method of data collection was laboratory microscopic stool examination using direct wet mount and formol-ether concentration technique and the structured questionnaires about the associated risk factors and sociodemographic factors. Analysis of the data was made manually using the thematic framework method including the descriptive statistics Result: The overall prevalence of intestinal parasitic infections of helminths among the asymptomatic primary school children at woldia town was 96(22.7%). The predominant intestinal parasites of helminthes was Ascaries lumbercoides 40 (9.5%) followed by Trichuris trichiura 18 (4.3%), Hymenolopis nana 13 (3.1%) and Hook worms 10 (2.4%). From the overall prevalence of intestinal parasitic infections of helminthes, 96(22.7%), the results obtained by direct wet mount method was 36(37.5%) while the Formol-ether concentration technique method revealed 60(62.5%). Moreover, the result also showed parasitic infections of helminthes were associated with associated predisposing factors.

Investigation of moisture absorption rate and diffusivity of plant fibre-reinforced composites
Authors: Obi LE  , Uwanugo R-G Uchejiora
Published: June 2022

This research investigated the moisture absorption rate and diffusivity of plant Fibers-reinforced-composites; using bamboo fiber, raffia and coconut fibers through laboratory experimental investigations. The major limitation of using natural fibers in durable composite applications are their high moisture absorption and poor dimensional stability (swelling); and this swelling of fibers causes micro-cracking and degradation of the composites. In this investigation, the fibers were treated with sodium hydroxide (NaOH) chemical and acetylation to decrease the hydroxyl group in the fibers. Experimental results reveal that the moisture absorption and degree of swelling of the treated bamboo raffia and coconut fiber composites are 25 - 35% lower than those of composites produced with untreated bamboo, raffia and coconut fibers. Experimental results also show that strong intermolecular fiber-matrix bonding decreases the rate of moisture absorption in bio-composites. The diffusivity of the bamboo, raffia and coconut fibers-reinforced-composites for 24hrs at 1000C were experimentally measured to be 4.91, 3.33, and 3.94 mm2/sec respectively. The results showed that when these fiber plant materials are treated with sodium hydroxide (NaON) the diffusivity rate of the fiber reinforced composite material is brought under considerable control and its dimensional stability immensely enhanced though improved strong intermolecular fiber-matrix bonding and the reduction of swelling.

A study was conducted to determine the relationship between soil bacterial microfloral and organic Nitrogen content including soil pH. Two study agricultural farmlands were chosen. Ten soil samples were collected from each of the two agricultural farmlands and analysed quantitatively for total bacteria and soil nitrogen content. Total bacteria count was determined using the standard plate count while soil nitrogen content was determined using Kjeldahl method. Bacterial count ranged from 3.5 x 106 to 10.0 x 106 cfu/g in site -1 while in site -2, the bacterial counts ranges from 4.5 x 106 to 13.0 x 106 cfu/g. The corresponding soil nitrogen for site 1 and 2 was 0.30 - 0.50 mgkg-1 and 0.50 - 0.71 mgkg-1 respectively. Bacterial count was found to be directly proportional to soil nitrogen. The dominant bacteria identified in order of significance were; Bacillus spp (23.0%) >Klebsiella spp (21.3%) >Pseudomonas spp (16.3%) >Azotobacter spp. (13.3%) > S. aureus (11.3%) >E. coli (7.5%) >Streptococcus spp (6.6%). The pH for both sites ranged between 6.0-7.6. Correlation analysis was determined between the soil bacterial load and organic nitrogen. There was positive correlation between soil nitrogen and the corresponding bacterial load even though it was not statistically significant (P>0.05). It can be concluded that there is a relationship between soil bacterial micro flora and nitrogen content and this can be used as an index of soil health and fertility.
Neuropsychiatric insights for human suicide
Authors: Da-Yong Lu  , Hong-Ying Wu
Published: June 2022

Some medical ideas and knowledge suggests that suicide events or episodes are associated with a series of neuropsychiatric changes (a pattern of pathology pathways and therapeutic responses). We speculate that neuropsychiatric interference may turnover suicide rates and mortality. To find some useful evidence, cutting off unnecessary suicide-induced genes or molecules linking with disease pathogenesis will reduce suicide-induced mortality. This article discusses a framework of neuropsychiatric changes and interferences in patients.

Published: June 2022

Eggplant is a traditional crop in the department of Córdoba. One of the main producing regions is the population of El Retiro de los Indios, which supplies local genotype fruits both to local markets and to the Colombian Atlantic coast. In order to find out which are the main genotypes sown by farmers and how they obtain and preserve their seeds, a sample of 65 traditional farmers was taken from said population, who were given a descriptive personal survey with open response. It was established that 76% of the farmers sow the "Morada" genotype, 11% sow the "Lila" genotype, 8% sow the “Verde” genotype, 3% sow the “Picha de perro” genotype, and 2% sow the "Blanca de huevo" genotype. Regarding the obtaining, extraction and storage of seeds, all of the surveyed producers obtain the seeds of their own crops, extract them by the method of softening by rubbing the fruits on the ground, and keep them in glass bottles at which they add a tablespoon of ash.

Developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) is one of the most common congenital defects with an incidence of around 2 cases per 1000 births, affecting the development of the acetabulum and the femoral head. Etiopathogenesis remains unclear but certain risk factors have been associated with DDH including the female gender, postmaturity, primiparity, oligohydramnios and breech presentation. If left untreated, hip dysplasia is considered a main cause of early osteoarthritis. Reviewing the literature, the purpose of the current study is to present current evidence regarding the anatomical abnormalities of DDH during infancy, childhood and adulthood. Using the searching tools on the internet, a thorough search, evaluation and selection of recent published articles in reliable international electronic libraries was conducted regarding the anatomical variations in developmental dysplasia of the hip. The results, extracted from these manuscripts, were the basic source of the current study. It was found that hip anatomy is affected in many different ways which range from sole acetabular dysplasia and stability to subluxation and dislocation. Acetabular defects along with femoral head and soft tissue abnormalities are usually present, making surgery a very challenging process. Dominant symptoms in infancy involve length discrepancy and limited abduction while groin pain and abnormal gait appear later in life. In cases of early diagnosis, DDH can be treated efficiently. Therefore, careful examination of all infants should be performed using the Barlow and Ortolani tests along with ultrasound, when there is a high clinical suspicion. It would be advisable though to screen all infants in order to avoid delayed diagnosis. In later life, radiographs are considered the primary diagnostic tool, whereas a considerable advancement to treating adult DDH is the growing use of personalized (custom-made) implants.

This study was conducted at College of Engineering, Huazhong Agricultural University, China, 2019. It aimed to inspect theinfluence of two devices on seed precision performance of a multi-rows pneumatic disk metering device. Curved-edge and positive air blower were the two devices specifically used at four plate velocities coupled with their well-matching vacuum levels. Seed distribution of the two methods was also verified at 15 and 20 r/min incorporated with 1.2 and 1.4 kPa vacuum pressure, and 0.9 and 1.0 kPa positive pressure, respectively. Results exposed that vacuum amount utilized with mentioned speeds were adequate for attaining closer rows pick-up with consistency CV not surpassed 2.84%. The lowest quality index attained was 89.88%, while miss index not exceeded 7.1%, and rows stability CV was below 1.15%. Curved-edge device was found to be superior to air blower in quality index, miss index and rows stability. Study results concluded the appropriateness of the devices methods for precise seeding with a little variance, and more precise devices set up may generate better results.
Clinical and demographic data of patients operated on for primary open-angle glaucoma in Krasnoyarsk Krai in 2007–2021
Authors: Garkavenko V. V. , Balashova P. M.
Published: June 2022

PURPOSE. Comparative analysis of clinical and demographic characteristics of patients admitted for surgical treatment of primary open-angle glaucoma in the Krasnoyask Krai over the past 15 years.

METHODS. The study analyzed 2426 medical histories of patients with primary open-angle glaucoma who underwent surgical antihypertensive intervention at the Krasnoyarsk Regional Ophthalmic Clinical Hospital named after Professor P.G. Makarov in 2007–2021.

RESULTS. It was found that the proportion of men was significantly higher than women among patients who underwent surgical treatment of glaucoma. The mean age of operated patients was comparable across the entire period and ranged from 66.4 to 69.0 years. The proportion of patients with advanced stage of the disease increased during the study period from 50.7% to 75.5% (p<0.001). In 73–83% of cases, interventions were performed on patients with uncompensated, moderately elevated or high intraocular pressure.

CONCLUSION. Considering the dominating proportion of eyes with advanced stage of the disease (50.7–75.5% of cases), as well as high initial levels of intraocular pressure, it can be assumed that in some cases such patients are still referred to surgical treatment late, although presently it can be associated with problems in planned care due to the ongoing pandemic.

A kialakult helyzetben a kormányok a korlátozott kapacitások bővítése céljából bevonták az egészségügyi és szociális területen működő társadalmi és önkéntes szervezeteket is. A Vöröskereszt és Vörös Félhold Mozgalom világszerte jelen van a COVID-válaszadás frontvonalában, hazánkban a Magyar Vöröskereszt az első hullám kezdete óta végzi járványügyi feladatait, azonban tevékenységeit nagyszámú önkéntesek bevonásával tudja elvégezni, amelyekhez kapcsolódóan szükség van a megfelelő, átgondolt önkéntes koordinációra. A Magyar Vöröskereszt önkéntesmenedzsmentben és veszélyhelyzeti válaszadásban szerzett 140 éves tapasztalata nagymértékben hozzájárult az ellátórendszerrel való gördülékeny és eredményes együttműködéshez. Esettanulmányunkban bemutatjuk a Magyar Vöröskereszt önkénteseinek feladatvállalásait a pandémia alatt, kitérünk az önkéntes koordináció feladataira, kihívásaira. Bemutatjuk mely szükségletek mentén alakul a feladatvállalás, kiemeljük a jó gyakorlatként és kihívásokként azonosítható tényezőket. Esettanulmányunkban megállapítjuk, hogy az önkéntesek megfelelő szervezési háttér esetén hatékonyan támogatják az egészségügyi ellátórendszert. Ehhez azonban szükséges a résztvevő szervezetek közötti hatékony kommunikáció és koordináció, valamint a fogadó szervezet önkéntesek foglalkoztatásában szerzett rutinja. A tapasztalatok alapján szükséges az egészségügyi önkéntesség koncepciójának hosszútávú fejlesztése, a meglévő eljárások vizsgálata és az abban gyakorlattal nem rendelkező intézmények felkészítése mellett egy megfelelő iránymutatás vagy módszertani anyag kidolgozása.
A Cselekvés Alapítvány önkénteseinek motivációi és szerepe az „Operation Freedom” műtétsorozatban

A humanitárius segítségnyújtás részét képező orvosi és egészségügyi önkéntes munka fontos szerepet játszik az egészségügyi ellátáshoz való hozzáférés terén megmutatkozó társadalmi egyenlőtlenségek mérséklésében, valamint az önkéntesek szakmai és személyes fejlődésében. A Cselekvés Alapítvány orvosokból, egészségügyi dolgozókból és más szakmai segítőikből álló önkéntes csapata 2019-ben szétválasztott egy fejüknél összenőve született bangladesi "sziámi" ikerpárt, Rabeya és Rukaya Islamot. Az Islam-ikrek "Operation Freedom" névre keresztelt, multidiszciplináris - többek között aneszteziológiai és intenzív terápiás, idegsebészeti és plasztikai sebészeti szakértelmet igénylő -, négy fő szakaszból álló műtétsorozata 2018 februárjában kezdődött, s napjainkban is tart. Jelen tanulmány elsődleges célja, hogy felmérje és összehasonlítsa a projektben résztvevő önkéntesek (orvosok, egészségügyi dolgozók és más szakmai segítők) motivációs tényezőinek struktúráját. Az eredmények szerint a Cselekvés Alapítvány "Operation Freedom" projektben résztvevő önkénteseinek motivációjában a nemzetközi szakirodalomban talált adatokhoz képest is nagyobb szerepet játszott a teljes mintában és valamennyi foglalkozás szerinti alcsoportban a legfontosabbként beazonosított két faktor: az értékek kifejezése és a megértés. Ugyanakkor az egészségügyi dolgozók alcsoportját leszámítva gyengébb motivációs tényezőnek számított náluk a növekedés, a társas faktor és az énvédelem.

Speaking with the media is something that many wildlife rehabilitators and educators are faced with at some point in their career, but it makes many people uncomfortable—or maybe even downright terrified! The key to a good media interview is preparation and practice; the goal of this article is to give wildlife professionals some practical, attainable goals while practicing the skill of the interview.
De onde viemos e onde estamos?: o contexto educacional e a formação do professor pedagogo na contemporaneidade
Authors: Carvalho Silmara Bezerra Paz , Moura Maria da Glória Carvalho
Published: June 2022

Este artigo apresenta elementos que constituem o contexto educacional e formativo do professor pedagogo no Brasil. Diante da situação atual, onde a humanidade tem se caracterizado por inúmeras mudanças sociais, econômicas e políticas que impactam a educação. Buscamos refletir a partir da concepção histórica e evolutiva da formação de professores. Trata-se de um estudo teórico, conduzido pela pesquisa bibliográfica com uma abordagem qualitativa. Utilizamos documentos de referência do MEC, de periódicos, livros, anais de eventos e palestras das associações e movimentos sociais em prol do processo formativo. As análises indicam que a formação do professor pedagogo vêm sofrendo constantes mudanças, sendo a mais atual após a BNCC/2017-2018. Posto isso, percebe-se a necessidade de atenção especial para essas Diretrizes com vistas na reflexão e ação dos sujeitos envolvidos nesse processo pautadas na inovação, criatividade e autonomia.
Patricia Muñoz, Defensora de la Niñez
Authors: Miranda Pérez Fabiola , Andrade Guzmán Carlos

1. Introducción

El pasado mes de agosto de 2020 en un contexto muy particular como país -previo a la realización del plebiscito sobre el cambio constitucional-, y como sociedad en general a nivel mundial - a causa de la pandemia por Covid-19-, entrevistamos a la actual Defensora de la Niñez, Patricia Muñoz García.

La Defensoría de la Niñez nace en junio de 2018 en tanto organismo autónomo del Estado, es decir, no cuenta con la supervigilancia de otros organismos, lo cual le brinda independencia en el ejercicio de sus funciones. Que Chile contase con un organismo de esta índole es relevante en términos de garantizar los derechos de la niñez en adecuación a los estándares internacionales en materia de derechos humanos y en concordancia a los tratados internacionales suscritos por nuestro país. Al respecto, en esta entrevista se problematizan diversas cuestiones sobre la operacionalización del organismo, los límites que se han ido presentando en su implementación, los desafíos que implica la defensa de los derechos de los niñas y niños y adolescentes en un contexto atravesado por importantes denuncias sobre situaciones vividas por estos últimos en organismos colaboradores del Servicio Nacional de Menores, entre otras, que han marcado la agenda nacional en los últimos años. A continuación, se presenta una visión crítica y reflexiva tanto del rol del Estado como de la nueva institucionalidad, Defensoría de la Niñez, por parte de su principal representante.

Capital social y apropiación del espacio en la vivienda social: análisis del programa fondo solidario de elección vivienda
Authors: Godoy Ossandón Andrés
Published: June 2022

El presente artículo buscó analizar si el programa Fondo Solidario de Elección de Vivienda, cuenta con elementos en su diseño de política pública, que aporten a la apropiación del espacio y al fortalecimiento del capital social, para con las familias que participen de este. Para esto, se realizó un análisis de contenido de los principales puntos y actividades exigidas por el Plan de Acompañamiento Social, requerido por dicho programa. Los resultados muestran que, en términos generales, no aborda elementos que propicien de forma efectiva la apropiación del espacio y el capital social, ya sea por una falta de fundamentos teóricos o por metodologías apoyadas en mecanismos de participación mínimas. Sin embargo, si se reconoce un avance en cuanto a periodos anteriores de la política habitacional.
Entre prácticas higienistas y eugenésicas: las políticas públicas chilenas de veraneo popular en los 1940
Authors: Santander Ulloa Gonzalo , Faure Antoine
Published: June 2022

Este artículo pretende analizar las políticas públicas que fomentaron el veraneo de las clases populares durante los gobiernos del Frente Popular chileno en los años 1940. Se busca comprender las causas que motivaron la creación de estos programas a nivel nacional, desmenuzar los distintos dispositivos que implementaron esta acción pública y, finalmente, rastrear el papel de los distintos actores que participaron de la promoción e implementación del veraneo popular a distintas escalas (gubernamental, empresas estatales y municipios). Se concluye que, guiadas por políticas sobre el buen aprovechamiento del tiempo libre y en correlato a prácticas higienistas y eugenésicas, dichos programas plantearon “una regeneración de la raza”, en vista de las precarias condiciones que vivían las clases populares. A su vez, también mostraron una reconfiguración del papel del Estado chileno referente al gasto fiscal e integración de grupos subalternos a los beneficios públicos.
La multitud operante: distinciones para analizar el nuevo escenario político y social
Authors: Ruz Escobar Catalina
Published: June 2022

El presente artículo expone algunas distinciones para analizar la multitud como escenario político de nuevas formas de movilización social, a partir de la revuelta social del 2019. Para ello, se considera la dimensión del cuerpo como expresión de lo múltiple y contemporáneo en cuanto a la expresión política. Se vincula la comunidad como una co-extensión de la multitud, en la medida que esta ha sostenido la manifestación social y ha asumido la dimensión múltiple de la revitalización de la organización social horizontal. Respecto al trabajo social, se hace énfasis en la intervención social mediante la cartografía social y en la necesidad de atender a las demandas de la multitud, considerando las esferas de la macropolítica y la micropolítica. Esta última se plantea como un lugar que desafía al trabajo social a potenciar los cambios que se abordan a nivel disciplinar. La metodología consta de una articulación teórica práctica, acorde con la coyuntura de las movilizaciones transcurridas en los últimos dos años en Chile desde el 18 de octubre del 2019.
La participación ciudadana: un elemento clave en los procesos de reconstrucción de ciudades.
Authors: Hernández Mary Natalia
Published: June 2022

Paulina Saball es trabajadora Social de la Universidad Católica, estudió entre el 1970 y 1973, periodo de reconceptualización del Trabajo Social. “Mi formación profesional estuvo muy vinculada con los procesos sociales, la vida de las comunidades y el quehacer país. El trabajo social de aquellos tiempos buscaba incidir en las transformaciones sociales de la época. Fue un momento de grandes cambios en la universidad. Fue la época del primer Claustro Universitario; mi vida profesional y personal está marcada por haber estudiado en ese contexto”, explica. Ella es parte de una generación que vivió un momento de grandes reformas en el país “brutalmente interrumpidas por el golpe militar”, periodo en el que trabajo social se transformó en su vocación, trabajo y espacio de reflexión; un lugar a partir del cual pudo construir una visión distinta de lo que estaba ocurriendo en Chile. En esa época trabajó en la Vicaría de la Solidaridad, fue una de las creadoras del Colectivo Trabajo Social y luego de la revista Apuntes para Trabajo Social, que fueron espacios para compartir y reflexionar, desde el trabajo social, la realidad país. Tuvo distintas experiencias profesionales marcadas siempre por el trabajo con el sector poblacional, en el ámbito de los derechos humanos. En el retorno a la democracia trabajó en la Comisión Rettig, lo que califica como una síntesis dolorosa, pero importante. “Fue una oportunidad de mirar por primera vez las violacionenes de los derechos humanos desde una visión de Estado; un Estado que buscaba esclarecer la verdad y reparar, en parte, el daño causado a las personas y a sus familias”, cuenta. Desde ahí en adelante ha estado vinculada a las políticas públicas. Primero en el Ministerio de Vivienda, después en Bienes Nacionales y luego en la Comisión Nacional del Medio Ambiente. Durante el Gobierno del Presidente Piñera trabajó fuera del Estado, en la Fundación Nacional para la Superación de la Pobreza. Y ahora regresó al Ministerio de Vivienda.
