“EnTalegArte: I Encuentro de arte, cultura y educación en el medio penitenciario”, en la Facultad de Ciencias de la Educación

  • Se reivindica la figura del educador social como profesión imprescindible para la reinserción
  • Del 20 al 22 de febrero, organizado por el Vicedecanato de Estudiantes y Extensión Universitaria de Ciencias de la Educación, y la Asociación PIDES

La Facultad de Ciencias de la Educación va a albergar durante los días 20, 21 y 22 de febrero “EnTalegArte: I Encuentro de arte, cultura y educación en el medio penitenciario”, que organiza el Vicedecanato de Estudiantes y Extensión Universitaria de de Ciencias de la Educación y la Asociación PIDES (Proyectos de Investigación para el Desarrollo Educativo y Social), con la colaboración del Departamento de Didáctica y Organización Escolar y el Centro Penitenciario de Albolote.

Antonio Pérez Bermúdez, uno de los miembros de PIDES y organizador de EnTalegArte, señala que con estas jornadas se pretende reivindicar la profesión de educador social, que todavía es muy desconocida a pesar de su relevancia en la realidad actual.

Según explican los organizadores “el encuentro surge de la reflexión de nuestra experiencia en la intervención socioeducativa en el medio penitenciario con un doble objetivo de impacto: mitigar el estigma social y personal en las personas privadas de libertad a través del arte y la cultura como forma de inclusión social, y reivindicar las figuras profesionales de la intervención social dentro del medio penitenciario”.

Este encuentro sobre intervención socioeducativa en centros penitenciarios se llevará a cabo mediante talleres prácticos, como los que ya realizan los miembros de la Asociación PIDES en el Centro Penitenciario de Albolote. Estos son:

  • Club de lectura: “Un libro para ser libre”.
  • Taller de sexualidad: “Buscando nuestro propio placer”.
  • Taller de periodismo: revista “La Voz del Mako”.
  • Taller de música: “Flamencusión”.
  • Taller de Dinámicas de Grupo: “Un enfoque desde la resolución de conflictos”.

Los talleres están diseñador para un máximo de 10 a 12 personas.

Estudiantes de Educación Social de la Facultad de Ciencias de la Educación y licenciados han creado un grupo de educadores llamado “Mano Verde”, dentro de la Asociación PIDES de Granada, que trabajan con diferentes colectivos como discapacitados, niños… Próximamente van a empezar a intervenir en el Centro de Inserción Social de Granada (CIS).

En el Centro Penitenciario de Albolote se puso en marcha una iniciativa para el fomento de la lectura, la cultura, la educación y el arte.

Gracias a esta iniciativa los internos de la prisión pudieron tener acceso a un lugar de escucha, debate, reflexión grupal y, sobre todo, de compresión personal ante la situación en el contexto que se les presentaba como personas privadas de libertad.

A New ‘Virtual Moderator’ Helps Reach Consensus in Troubled Negotiations

A group of researchers have designed a new fuzzy ontology-based system to help people in disagreement reach consensus. This system, which acts as a virtual moderator, is a step forward in the field on Artificial Intelligence. This tool can be useful in making everyday decisions -such as choosing a wine in a restaurant-, but it can also be helpful in complex negotiations between countries fighting for their interests in the European Union framework.

Fuzzy ontologies represent the relationships among basic concepts. This new system uses ontology to help in the decision-making process by acting as a virtual moderator trying to bridge positions among the different parts in a negotiation.
The authors of this study are Ignacio Javier Pérez and Enrique Herrera Viedma, researchers at the SECABA laboratory of the University of Granada, in collaboration with researchers at the Institute for Advanced Management Systems Research (IAMSR) of the Abo Akademi, Finland.
According to the University of Granada professor,Enrique Herrera Viedma, principal investigator of the study, «ontology represents a large amount of information that can be used by a virtual moderator to exert influence on negotiators and help reach consensus.»
Accordingly, the University of Granada research groups on decision-making processes and virtual moderators and the Abo Akademi research groups on ontology and knowledge representation «have joined to design a new tool which is a step forward in the field of decision making and poses new challenges to Applied Artificial Intelligence,» professor Viedma states.

Chemotherapy and Radiotherapy: Pioneering Technique to Effectively Treat Mucositis

Mucositis is one of the most frequent side effects of chemotherapy and radiotherapy in cancer patients and currently cannot be treated. Investigators at the University of Granada have patented a melatonin gel that is 100% effective against this inflammatory reaction.

Transplant rejection
Scientists from the University of Granada have patented a compound made from melatonin that is effective in the treatment and prevention of mucositis, one of the most unpleasant side effects of chemotherapy and radiotherapy in cancer patients. It is an easily applied gel that «is believed to be the first product developed anywhere in the world to combat mucositis,» according to investigators from the Biomedical Research Centre in Granada. There is currently no treatment for this problem because its physiopathology is still not understood.
Mucositis is an inflammatory reaction that affects the mucous membranes throughout the digestive tract from the mouth to the anus, and is one of the principle adverse effects resulting from chemotherapy, radiotherapy and bone marrow transplants. This problem severely complicates the treatment of cancer as patients frequently have to be admitted to hospital, naso-gastric tubes and opiates must be used and, most seriously, radiotherapy treatment against the cancer is interrupted. On some occasions, the results can be fatal.
Radiotherapy and Mucositis
It is estimated that 40% of patients who receive radiotherapy and up to 70% of bone marrow transplant patients will develop mucositis. In patients with cancer of the head and neck, 97% develop this condition to some degree, while 100% of those who receive staged radiotherapy over a prolonged period also suffer from mucositis.
At the moment no effective treatment for mucositis exists, which is why the product developed at the University of Granada is of interest to the medical world and the pharmaceutical industry, given that it could greatly enhance the quality of life of cancer patients.
This patented compound is the fruit of more than twenty years of research into the properties of melatonin at the University of Granada, which has shown that mitochondrial damage is present in cases of mucositis. «Melatonin alleviates the inflammatory reaction and protects the mitochondria,´ says Germaine Escames Rosa, the principal author of the study, «and for this reason we think it could be useful for treating mucositis.»
The success of the treatment developed at the University of Granada is due to the type of gel used in the pharmaceutical formulation, and the amount of melatonin used. «The oral application of this melatonin gel at a specific concentration, impregnates the mucous membranes and reverses the mitochondrial damage, preventing the appearance of mucositis in 100% of cases.» Any other type of melatonin application, such as different concentrations, would not have the s

Conferencia en Melilla sobre las excavaciones en la tumba del visir Amenhotep Huy, en Luxor (Egipto)

  • A cargo de Julia Melero Pascual, de la Fundación Gaselec, tendrá lugar en el Aula de Mayores (Sala de Grados del Campus de la UGR en Melilla) el lunes, 18 de febrero de 2013, a las 19 horas

Las excavaciones en la tumba del visir Amenhotep Huy, situada en Asasif Sur, Luxor (Egipto), serán objeto de una conferencia que ofrecerá en el Aula de Mayores de Melilla, Julia Melero Pascual, de la Fundación Gaselec, institución melillense que participa en las excavaciones de la Tumba 28 de Asasif, localizada en la necrópolis tebana, en el área de Asasif Sur, que fue construida durante el reinado de Amenhotep III (1387-1348 a C.) de la XVIII dinastía.

En la conferencia, que tendrá lugar en la Sala de Grados del Campus de la UGR en Melilla, el lunes, 18 de febrero de 2013, a las 19 horas, Julia Melero dará cuenta del trabajo que realiza la misión arqueológica española en la excavación que financia la Fundación Gaselec en Luxor. Así, la oradora ofrecerá un breve repaso de la geografía del Antiguo Egipto y de las principales características de su civilización, haciendo hincapié en el ámbito funerario, para explicar a continuación la labor de los arqueólogos y cómo estos reconstruyen la historia a través de los restos materiales que hallan.

La exposición, que será complementada con un “PowerPoint” con imágenes de los trabajos, tendrá una duración de media hora, aproximadamente
