Latin America epitomizes this trend as three of the world’s most dangerous cities, Ciudad Juárez, San Pedro Sula, and Caracas, are located within this region (JÁCOME; GRATIUS, 2011, p. 2). Of these three, Caracas is notable because its exorbitant homicide rate cannot be explicitly attributed to the illicit drug trade-cartel wars that consume Mexico, nor is it represented by the civil conlict-gang violence that aflicts Central America.

  • LIFE and WORK in the BANANA FINCAS of the NORTH COAST of HONDURAS, 1944-1957 a Dissertation
    CAMPEÑAS, CAMPEÑOS Y COMPAÑEROS: LIFE AND WORK IN THE BANANA FINCAS OF THE NORTH COAST OF HONDURAS, 1944-1957 A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Suyapa Gricelda Portillo Villeda January 2011 © 2011 Suyapa Gricelda Portillo Villeda CAMPEÑAS Y CAMPEÑOS: LIFE AND WORK IN THE BANANA FINCAS OF THE NORTH COAST OF HONDURAS, 1944-1957 Suyapa Gricelda Portillo Villeda, Ph.D. Cornell University 2011 On May 1st, 1954 banana workers on the North Coast of Honduras brought the regional economy to a standstill in the biggest labor strike ever to influence Honduras, which invigorated the labor movement and reverberated throughout the country. This dissertation examines the experiences of campeños and campeñas, men and women who lived and worked in the banana fincas (plantations) of the Tela Railroad Company, a subsidiary of the United Fruit Company, and the Standard Fruit Company in the period leading up to the strike of 1954. It describes the lives, work, and relationships of agricultural workers in the North Coast during the period, traces the development of the labor movement, and explores the formation of a banana worker identity and culture that influenced labor and politics at the national level. This study focuses on the years 1944-1957, a period of political reform, growing dissent against the Tiburcio Carías Andino dictatorship, and worker agency and resistance against companies' control over workers and the North Coast banana regions dominated by U.S. companies. Actions and organizing among many unheralded banana finca workers consolidated the powerful general strike and brought about national outcomes in its aftermath, including the state's institution of the labor code and Ministry of Labor.

  • Cure Violence Using a Health Approach
    VIOLENCE IS CONTAGIOUS; WE CAN TREAT AND, ULTIMATELY, CURE VIOLENCE USING A HEALTH APPROACH cureviolence.org I #cureviolence REPORT ON THE CURE VIOLENCE MODEL ADAPTATION IN SAN PEDRO SULA, HONDURAS FreeImages.com/ Benjamin Earwicker FreeImages.com/ Charles Ransford, MPP R. Brent Decker, MSW, MPH Gary Slutkin, MD Cure Violence University of Illinois at Chicago School of Public Health Abstract: San Pedro Sula, Honduras has had the highest levels of killing of any city around the world for several years. Violence in San Pedro is multi-faceted and has become normalized by those forced to live with it. The Cure Violence model to stopping violence is an epidemic control model that reduces violence by changing norms and behaviors and has been proven effective in the community setting. In 2012, Cure Violence conducted an extensive assessment of the violence in several potential program zones in San Pedro Sula and in April 2013 began implementing an adapted version of the model. In 2014, the first three zones implementing the model experienced a 73% reduction in shootings and killings compared to the same 9-month period in 2013. In the first 5 months of 2015, five program zones experienced an 88% reduction in shootings and killing, including one site that went 17 months without any shootings. November 2016 Violence in Honduras The Americas are the most violent region in the world with an average homicide rate of 28.5 per 100,000 and an estimated 165,617 killing in 2012.1 In total, the Americas account for roughly 36% of global homicides.2 Within this most violent region, violence is most severe in the Northern Triangle of Latin Amer- ica, an area that includes El Salvador, Guatemala and Honduras.

The DREF is a vital part of the International Federation’s disaster response system and increases the ability of National Societies to respond to disasters. 220,062 Swiss francs have been allocated from the IFRC’s Disaster Relief Emergency Fund (DREF) to support the Honduran Red Cross (HRC) in delivering immediate assistance to some 800 families (4,000 persons). Unearmarked funds to repay DREF are encouraged. Summary: Severe precipitation brought by Tropical Depression 12-E combined with previous rainfall from the rainy season in Honduras has caused saturation of the soil and subsequent flooding. Thirteen of the 18 departments of the country are in a State of Emergency, but damages are HRC volunteers and technical personnel have conducted search, rescue concentrated in the Choluteca and and evacuation activities of the population affected by flooding. Source: Valle departments. HRC. The Honduran Red Cross is actively responding to the emergency through its volunteers and technical personnel.

  • Choluteca, Honduras
    Catástrofes naturales Con temblor la tierra aclama al hombre que tenga piedad con fuertes gritos exclama que lo que haga no es nimiedad. Son pedidos de auxilio de un mundo descuidado ¿Tendremos que buscar exilio por lo que hemos abandonado? Las aguas también protestan con lluvias desbordan los ríos. Los hombres solo contestan cuidando sus grandes señoríos. Hacen cumbres y reuniones, grandes cenas, fotos miles, firmando falsas uniones pero se protegen con misiles. En Marte se busca vida a Saturno cohetes lanza. De nuestro planeta se olvida dejándonos sin esperanza. Es doble mensaje que dan: por un lado, la advertencia, lo que nos recomiendan y en el otro la inclemencia. Tsunamis, terremotos, inundación. La tierra con esto se defiende. Efecto invernadero y contaminación, es el hombre que no entiende. El ser humano teme ahora cuando lo único necesario era cuidar la obra creadora porque es urgente y no espera.
