S'appuyant sur des entrevues semi-dirigées auprès de 50 agricultrices urbaines et périurbaines issues de secteurs marginalisés (favelas, assentamentos, terreiros et communautés quilombolas et indigènes) des États de Ceará et de Pernambouc, l'auteure s'intéresse aux dynamiques associatives qui permettent à ces femmes de rompre avec la stigmatisation et l'invisibilité, d'une part, et de se constituer en mouvement social selon les trois principes (identité, opposition et historicité) de la théorie tourainienne de l'« acteur social », d'autre part. Son analyse révèle que les actions militantes de ces agricultrices nourrissent des réseaux de collaboration qui vont au-delà des droits fonciers, contribuant ainsi à une autonomisation (empowerment) individuelle et relationnelle articulée autour du projet inachevé – et aujourd'hui compromis par le gouvernement de Bolsonaro – de l'économie sociale et solidaire comme moyen d'en finir avec les diverses formes de domination et d'oppression croisées.

Committed employees, effective companies (Berceruelo & Estudio de Comunicación, 2020) is not only an enjoyable and interesting volume, but also a very useful tool for professionals in the field of communication, human resources, business management or public relations, as well as for researchers and academics. This is due to the fact that it tackles internal communication from a strategic perspective to make the organizational culture and values of an entity evolve, with the aim of reflecting internal audiences and promoting their sense of belonging by constituting the link between all of them at an individual level

Section A of this paper discusses the historical evolution of clinical legal programs in the United States, the homeland of clinical legal education. Next, the current framework of Italian legal clinics is discussed, focusing on its American heritage and associated nuances.Section B considers why mediation would be particularly suitable for the creation of an Italian legal clinic, given the recent incentives created by the European legislature to strengthen alternative dispute resolution. The evolution of the Columbia Law School Mediation Clinic is described, from its beginning to the recent creation of an advanced clinic model, and insights from this process are discussed in terms of the Italian legal and family environment.Section C lays out baseline considerations and recommendations for creating a family mediation clinic at LUMSA. Three different approaches to family and community mediation previously adopted in the context of clinical legal education are analysed: facilitative mediation, transformative mediation, and peacemaking circle. A model for the clinic is proposed, with suggestions for sources and materials from which the curriculum might be drawn.

This research sets out to understand the why, how and with whom of rural-urban internal migration of children to the Mozambique border town of Ressano Garcia. In doing so, it aims to address the overarching research question of how to strengthen child protection systems for unaccompanied migrant children. Research took place at the border town of Ressano Garcia and in the Mozambican capital city of Maputo, between July and September 2012. Following a thorough analysis of the qualitative data, engaging with the current debate on migration and child protection issues, this paper critically assesses the current interconnected 'protective actors' and protection mechanisms and provides recommendations. Under a qualitative child participatory approach, children and their views are placed at the centre of the research. Research participants also include protective actors that are the cornerstone of child protection mechanisms, including: civil society organizations (CSOs) in both Ressano Garcia and Maputo, and government officials at local, district, provincial and central level, thus allowing for a triangulation of sources. ; This research sets out to understand the why, how and with whom of rural-urban internal migration of children to Ressano Garcia, a border town between Mozambique and South Africa. It addresses the overarching research question of how to strengthen child protection systems for unaccompanied migrant children. By identifying children's reasons for migrating, it identifies the main risks they encounter once they start living and working in Ressano Garcia. These include: lack of access to educational opportunities, exposure to child labour exploitation, trafficking and smuggling. This paper argues that child protection systems must respond to the unique situation of migrant children's needs. Child protection and migration policies need to strike a balance between discouraging unsafe migration, which has the potential to expose children to violence, and ensuring that systems are in place for safe migration at all stages of their journey. It provides a set of specific policies to address the needs of unaccompanied migrant children in Mozambique.

Partant d'un cas concret d'institutionnalisation de l'égalité entre les sexes mis en place par l'Agence canadienne de développement international (ACDI) dans trois ministères du Maroc, cet article examine les facteurs qui contribuent à son implantation ou qui, au contraire, la freinent. Les résultats indiquent que, malgré l'adoption de plans d'action concernant l'institutionnalisation de l'égalité entre les sexes, celle-ci se heurte à des résistances liées au système social, à la culture organisationnelle et au mode d'implantation du changement. Privilégiant la dimension technique de l'institutionnalisation de l'égalité entre les sexes, pour l'essentiel articulée autour d'études sur les inégalités, de création de structures organisationnelles et d'activités de formation, les projets étudiés tendent à négliger la dimension culturelle du changement, au risque de s'éloigner des besoins et des réalités des organisations locales et, par là, de restreindre les possibilités de stratégies proprement participatives et endogènes.

While the contribution of women to the economies of developing countries is critical, women rarely find employment in the regulated unionized sectors of these countries, and are found instead in overwhelming numbers in the sector that is variously termed 'unorganized', 'unprotected', 'unregistered' or 'informal'. Although producers' groups and collectives have been considered a way forward in promoting gender empowerment in the informal sector, the process to organize and develop these grass-root initiatives are challenging in a variety of ways, some of the impediments arising from women's lack of bargaining power with outsiders and lack of internal inclusiveness of its own members. The purpose of this article is to advance discussion on women's narratives of empowerment by exploring the case of Gram Mooligai Company Limited (GMCL). GMCL is the first female community enterprise in India active in the herbal sector, entirely formed and managed by untouchables. The findings show that GMCL enhances women's productive capabilities, leadership skills and to some extent social learning abilities, but falls short to confronting marginalization resulting from issues of caste embedded in established patriarchal norms and practices. This case study points to the significance to adopt a more holistic approach, which conceives empowerment as a dynamic, socio-culturally constructed process.

S'appuyant sur une enquête par entretiens collectifs menés en Côte-d'Ivoire, cet article aborde les relations de genre en milieu rural à partir des expériences situées de villageoises et villageois issus de deux grandes familles ethniques du sud du pays : les Akan et les Krou. À la croisée des théories féministes décoloniales et de la pensée postcoloniale du tiers-espace, il examine les stratégies identitaires qui façonnent les constructions sociales de l'égalité des sexes et de l'accès au foncier. De l'hybridité culturelle de ces représentations émerge une dynamique de négociations dont les ambivalences, résistances et points de rencontre laissent voir un recadrage en gestation des rapports de pouvoir.
