  • Emergency Intervention from Loreto by Floods in 2012
    EMERGENCY INTERVENTION FROM LORETO BY FLOODS IN 2012 LESSONS LEARNED L RETO LESSONS LEARNED L O RETO EMERGENCY INTERVENTION FROM LORETO BY FLOODS IN 2012 Este documento ha sido elaborado con el Instituto Nacional de Defensa Civil (INDECI), el Gobierno Regional de Loreto, el apoyo nanciero de Cruz Roja Peruana, Plan Internacional, UNICEF, OCHA y el apoyo técnico de COOPI, Cruz Roja Peruana, UNICEF, OCHA, FAO y Plan Internacional, en el marco de la respuesta a la emergencia por inundaciones en la Región Loreto en 2012. ESP AÑOL 001 Presentation / 05 Presentation The lived experience during the Regional Emergency caused by the floods and the unusual rise of the Amazonian rivers, which surpassed the levels registered in the previous years, allows us to prepare a situation analysis of the joint activities developed with local and national institutions and the valuable support of cooperation institutions, like UNICEF. During all the process of supportive activities, the Regional Operations Centre for Emergencies (COER-LORETO), created by Regional Executive Resolution Nº202-2012-GRL-P, dated April 02, 2012, has played a major role in attention to victims of the floods from the Amazonian rivers in 2012. It was this Regional Centre who brought together and channelled all the efforts for the installation of shelters in the city and their respective basic services such as health, drinking water and electric supply. It also coordinated with PRONAA daily the early delivery of food and provisions to all districts considered within the emergency. Humanitarian aid was obtained from the National Institute of Civil Defence (INDECI), chaired by Alfredo E.

  • This Is a Pre-Copy-Editing, Author-Produced PDF of an Article Accepted Following Peer Review for Publication in Geoforum
    This is a pre-copy-editing, author-produced PDF of an article accepted following peer review for publication in Geoforum Making “a racket” but does anybody care? A study into environmental justice access and recognition through the political ecology of voice Adrian Gonzalez, Cardiff University. There is now growing support for the United Nations to explicitly recognise the human right to a healthy environment, and to strengthen the fight for environmental justice. One key consideration is to explore how accessible environmental justice is for citizens in low- and middle-income countries, who are adversely affected by pollution problems. This article will evaluate citizen access to environmental justice through the state via a case-study of Peru. To do so, the article utilises the political ecology of voice (PEV) theoretical framework. PEV can be defined as the study of several economic, political, social, and geographical factors over a specific temporal period, and their impact upon the use of voice by different stakeholders. The research was centred on two communities affected by oil pollution events within Peru’s Loreto Region. It will show that Loreto’s rural population are subjected to “shadow environmental citizenship”, in which they have only peripheral access to environmental justice through the state, which also does not adequately recognise or support their right to seek redress. This in turn, forces people to seek access and recognition of environmental justice through more unorthodox or radical forms of action, or via the support of non-state actors. Key Words: environmental justice; oil pollution; Peru; political ecology of voice; shadow environmental citizenship; political ecology 1.

  • EVJR1906 Ex-Post
    Republic of Peru FY2018 Ex-post Evaluation of Japanese ODA Loan “Iquitos Sewerage Improvement and Expansion Project” External Evaluator: Nobuyuki Kobayashi, OPMAC Corporation 0. Summary The objective of this project is to treat sewage properly and to widen the coverage of sewerage service in Iquitos in the Department of Loreto, one of the major cities in the Amazon region, by improving and expanding the sewerage system, thereby contributing to improved sanitary conditions and living environment in the area. This project was highly relevant to the country’s development plan and development needs, as well as to Japan’s ODA policy. Regarding the project plan and the approach, however, it can be concluded that an assessment should have been made at the time of the appraisal whether the sewage collection method and the sewage treatment method of this project would function adequately considering local circumstances. Therefore, its relevance is fair. Considering the changes in outputs in this project, the cost of this project exceeded the plan. In addition, the project period significantly exceeded the plan. Therefore, efficiency of the project is low. Regarding the indicators for the outcome of this project (the proper treatment of sewage in Iquitos and the expansion of sewerage coverage), out of the seven indicators set at the ex-ante evaluation, five have not been achieved. The sewage treatment plant has stopped its operation since July 2016. Regarding the impacts of this project improvements in hygiene conditions and living environment of the residents in Iquitos, no impacts has been verified as the contribution of this project. This project achieved its objectives at a limited level and, thus, the effectiveness and impacts of the project are low.

  • Multiple-Use Forest Management in the Humid Tropics
    ISSN 0258-6150 FAO 173 FORESTRY 173 PAPER FAO FORESTRY PAPER 173 Multiple-use forest management in the humid tropics: opportunities and challenges for sustainable Multiple-use forest management in Multiple-use forest management the humid tropics in the humid tropics OpportunitiesOpportunities andand challengeschallenges forfor sustainablesustainable forestforest managementmanagement Opportunities and challenges for sustainable forest management The multiple-value nature of forests has long been appreciated and used by forest-dependent people in the tropics. Explicitly managing for some or all of these values – multiple-use forest management – is stipulated in the laws of many countries, but its formal implementation in the tropics is thought to be rare. This paper reports on three regional assessments carried out to identify and draw lessons from on-the-ground initiatives in multiple-use forest management in the Amazon Basin, the Congo Basin and Southeast Asia. In all three regions, information was collected through interviews with country-based forestry experts, forest managers and technicians. A complementary, Web-based questionnaire further examined the reasons for the successes and failures of multiple-use forest management initiatives. The paper concludes that forest managers need more support if they are to realize the potential of multiple-use forest management. Greater effort is needed to eliminate unfair competition from operators whose sole objective is to extract timber, with little or no concern for multiple uses. In most countries, the demarcation of a permanent forest estate and the development of national land-use plans would increase investment in multiple-use forest management. Improving the value of logged-over forest through silviculture would also increase the uptake of multiple-use approaches.

  • Susceptibility to Insecticides and Resistance Mechanisms in Three
    Pinto et al. Parasites Vectors (2019) 12:494 https://doi.org/10.1186/s13071-019-3739-6 Parasites & Vectors RESEARCH Open Access Susceptibility to insecticides and resistance mechanisms in three populations of Aedes aegypti from Peru Jesus Pinto1, Miriam Palomino1, Leonardo Mendoza‑Uribe1, Carmen Sinti2, Kelly A. Liebman3,4 and Audrey Lenhart4* Abstract Background: Epidemics of dengue, chikungunya and Zika are a growing threat to areas where Aedes aegypti are present. The efcacy of chemical control of Ae. aegypti is threatened by the increasing frequency of insecticide resist‑ ance. The objective of this study was to determine the susceptibility status as well as the biochemical and molecular mechanisms underlying insecticide resistance in three populations of Ae. aegypti in high risk areas of dengue, chikun‑ gunya, and Zika in Peru. Methods: Bioassays were conducted on adult Ae. aegypti to evaluate their susceptibility to insecticides used cur‑ rently or historically for mosquito control in Peru, including six pyrethroids, three organophosphates and one organo‑ chlorine, in populations of Ae. aegypti from the districts of Chosica (Department of Lima), Punchana (Department of Loreto) and Piura (Department of Piura). Resistance mechanisms were determined by biochemical assays to assess activity levels of key detoxifcation enzyme groups (nonspecifc esterases, multi‑function oxidases, glutathione S‑transferases and insensitive acetylcholinesterase). Real‑time PCR assays were used to detect two kdr mutations (V1016I and F1534C) on the voltage‑gated sodium channel gene. Results: Resistance to DDT was detected in all three populations, and resistance to pyrethroids was detected in all populations except the population from Chosica, which still exhibited susceptibility to deltamethrin.
