The topographic staging is sought to take full advantage of, in order to generate a strategy regarding ecological factors and bioclimatic use. This is done by generating a water reservoir that functions as a bio-wildlife passage, which landscape-wise is the centre from which the design is generated. The placement of this lagoon is projected on the flattest part of the lot, taking advantage of its minimal depth and the natural shape of the land as a topographic collector and steerer of rainwater. The morphology of the lot allowed us to generate a proposal around a reservoir to create a microclimate and an appropriate cohesion between the constructed and the natural, reducing the footprint of exertion and construction on the site. the house was located above the water level, thus allowing the natural runoff of the water on the site. This conduction and the free circulation of water occur through a couple of waterfalls that help the oxygenation of the reservoir, thus maintaining its apt level and circulation. Due to the steep slope, these channels in constructive terms help to drive the water away from the house and function as an architectural landscape solution using a lagoon as the central body.

  • Contemporary Muisca Indigenous Sounds in the Colombian Andes
    Nymsuque: Contemporary Muisca Indigenous Sounds in the Colombian Andes Beatriz Goubert Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2019 © 2019 Beatriz Goubert All rights reserved ABSTRACT Nymsuque: Contemporary Muisca Indigenous Sounds in the Colombian Andes Beatriz Goubert Muiscas figure prominently in Colombian national historical accounts as a worthy and valuable indigenous culture, comparable to the Incas and Aztecs, but without their architectural grandeur. The magnificent goldsmith’s art locates them on a transnational level as part of the legend of El Dorado. Today, though the population is small, Muiscas are committed to cultural revitalization. The 19th century project of constructing the Colombian nation split the official Muisca history in two. A radical division was established between the illustrious indigenous past exemplified through Muisca culture as an advanced, but extinct civilization, and the assimilation politics established for the indigenous survivors, who were considered degraded subjects to be incorporated into the national project as regular citizens (mestizos). More than a century later, and supported in the 1991’s multicultural Colombian Constitution, the nation-state recognized the existence of five Muisca cabildos (indigenous governments) in the Bogotá Plateau, two in the capital city and three in nearby towns. As part of their legal battle for achieving recognition and maintaining it, these Muisca communities started a process of cultural revitalization focused on language, musical traditions, and healing practices. Today’s Muiscas incorporate references from the colonial archive, archeological collections, and scholars’ interpretations of these sources into their contemporary cultural practices.

A. In the generous bequest of Mrs. Charles D. Walcott to the Smithsonian Institution there was included the undistributed edition of the beautiful illustrations of North American Wild Flowers, printed from water colors made by Mrs. Walcott from nature and repro- duced by special process under her personal supervision. These plates, in five portfolio volumes, have been highly popular and have been sold in considerable numbers. In accordance with an indication given to me by Mrs, Walcott in discussing these matters a number of years ago, the Board of Regents of the Smithsonian Institution has set aside the first proceeds derived from these sales as a special fund in Mrs. Walcott's name for publications dealing with the science of botany. It is anticipated that these studies will be mainly technical in nature and will relate to researches made principally in the United States National Herbarium, in which Mrs. Walcott was so deeply interested.

  • Associativity in the Bogotá Metropolitan Region: Coordination Challenges in a Fragmented Region Carlos M
    AREA DEVELOPMENT AND POLICY 2021, VOL. 00, NO. 00 https://doi.org/10.1080/23792949.2020.1848441 RESEARCH ARTICLE Associativity in the Bogotá metropolitan region: coordination challenges in a fragmented region Carlos M. Jimenez Aguilar and Ulf Thoene ABSTRACT The Bogotá Metropolitan Region represents a paradox as it is yet to establish a metropolitan entity. The official discourse on the integration of Colombia’s capital city, Bogotá Capital District, with its surround- ing municipalities is at odds with the reality of uncoordinated governance. This research addresses the local and provincial roles of public and private associations in peripheral municipalities, identifying a profound geographical differentiation between public action largely confined to a provincial scale due to the lack of local public governance capacity and the factors that inhibit effective provincial-scale public action and the way private associations have sought to address consequent gaps in service provision. ARTICLE HISTORY Received 12 January 2020; Accepted 5 November 2020 KEYWORDS agglomeration, associativity, Colombia, governance capacity, metropolization, regional planning JEL O18, O21, O54, R11, R58, Z18 摘要 波哥大都市区域关联性:分散地区面临的协调挑战。 Area Development and Policy. 哥伦比亚首都波哥大 都市区是一个悖论, 因为它还没有建立一个都市实体。关于波哥大及其周边城市一体化的官方论述, 却与 治理不协调的现实相悖。本文研究探讨了波哥大周边城市的公共和私人组织在地方和省级中起到的作 用。结果表明:一方面, 由于缺乏地方公共治理能力, 公共行动主要局限于省级范围内。另一方面, 阻碍 有效的在省级范围内进行公共行动的因素与地方私人组织设法解决服务提供方面差距的方式存在重大的 地域差异。 关键词 聚集地, 关联性, 哥伦比亚, 治理能力, 大都市化, 局域规划 RESUMEN Asociatividad en la región metropolitana de Bogotá: desafíos de la coordinación en una región fragmen- tada.

  • Colombia Curriculum Guide 090916.Pmd
    National Geographic describes Colombia as South America’s sleeping giant, awakening to its vast potential. “The Door of the Americas” offers guests a cornucopia of natural wonders alongside sleepy, authentic villages and vibrant, progressive cities. The diverse, tropical country of Colombia is a place where tourism is now booming, and the turmoil and unrest of guerrilla conflict are yesterday’s news. Today tourists find themselves in what seems to be the best of all destinations... panoramic beaches, jungle hiking trails, breathtaking volcanoes and waterfalls, deserts, adventure sports, unmatched flora and fauna, centuries old indigenous cultures, and an almost daily celebration of food, fashion and festivals. The warm temperatures of the lowlands contrast with the cool of the highlands and the freezing nights of the upper Andes. Colombia is as rich in both nature and natural resources as any place in the world. It passionately protects its unmatched wildlife, while warmly sharing its coffee, its emeralds, and its happiness with the world. It boasts as many animal species as any country on Earth, hosting more than 1,889 species of birds, 763 species of amphibians, 479 species of mammals, 571 species of reptiles, 3,533 species of fish, and a mind-blowing 30,436 species of plants. Yet Colombia is so much more than jaguars, sombreros and the legend of El Dorado. A TIME magazine cover story properly noted “The Colombian Comeback” by explaining its rise “from nearly failed state to emerging global player in less than a decade.” It is respected as “The Fashion Capital of Latin America,” “The Salsa Capital of the World,” the host of the world’s largest theater festival and the home of the world’s second largest carnival.
