Many cities have begun promoting and investing in Non-Motorized Transportation (NMT) as a multi-faceted sustainable solution. Fostering NMT investments and policies are integral as they present numerous benefits for the environment, air quality, road safety and access to basic services. In Oaxaca, the government has been working on various Non-Motorized Transport proJects, with the aim of improving the accessibility and connectivity throughout the city through the establishment of new NMT routes that connect various attraction points and public spaces. The collaborative efforts of UN Environment, Share the Road initiative and World Resources Institute Mexico supported the development of this public policy that will help the city to make decisions about Non-Motorized Transport. As a first step, an assessment on the current situation of urban mobility in general was made, followed by the specific situation regarding Non-Motorized Transportation in Oaxaca. Additionally, a workshop was held on the subject in the city, attended by an array of stakeholders coming from government institutions to civil society. During the two day workshop, the participants from government and civil society attended and presented information on urban development, urban mobility, road safety and health, environmental and air quality, among others, in order to get a proper diagnosis of the current situation within the city also participants made a strength, weakness, opportunity and threat (SWOT) analysis to identify necessary projects to generate a city vision, objectives and actions for an NMT Plan for the city of Oaxaca. The NMT Policy for Oaxaca is composed of five goals and general objectives focused on the five guiding axes, in which each of these contain strategies for each of the subtopics to achieve the general obJective of each of the guiding axes. 3 Preliminary Information Prior to structuring the NMT Policy for Oaxaca, supporting information was researched, collected and analysed in different topics related with NMT such as: urban mobility, land use, environmental, legal and regulatory frameworks, traffic and mobility regulations, new mobility, economics, among other data to provide the actual context an up-to-date assessment and follow-up on projects and public policies that are planned in the city. Action Plan 2018-2019 Based on the WRI team's international experience, as well as information collected in the Workshop: “NMT Policy for Oaxaca city”, the following structure was proposed for preparing the Action Plan. 1. Assessment 2. Events and workshops 3. Strategies 4. Conclusions In this document, each of these points will be elaborated on, with the objective of providing more detail information on the metropolitan area of Oaxaca City, establishing clear and concise strategies to reach an “Action Plan for Oaxaca City”. 4 Foreword and NMT Vision from the State Government of Oaxaca The State Government of Oaxaca, through the Secretariat of Infrastructure and Sustainable Land- Use Planning, formed a collaborative relationship with the World Resources Institute (WRI) and the United Nations Environment Program to develop a Non-Motorized Transport public policy for the Metropolitan Area of Oaxaca through local capacity building and developing instruments for policy and planning. Since the addition of Mexico to the New Urban Agenda and the publication of the New General Law on Human Settlements, Land-Use Planning and Urban Development, the State government of Oaxaca has been working on various proJects that aim to reinforce public policies for urban development and infrastructure to improve our cities. The aim of the State Government proposal for the Metropolitan Area of Oaxaca is to improve the accessibility and connectivity throughout the city. The projects fall within the New Urban Agenda and the UN Sustainable Development Goals, which guide country efforts for the sustainable transformation of cities and communities by 2030. As well as in the institutional framework at the federal level, in accordance with the General Law of Human Settlements, Land-Use Planning and Urban Development; the Street Manual: road design for Mexican cities; the State Development Plan 2016-2022 and the recently updated Law of Land Use Planning and Urban Development for Oaxaca State, in which the rights to the city and to mobility were established. The intervention proposals are rooted in the improvement of public spaces as places of transit, where pedestrians have a predominant role. Connecting various attraction points in the city will generate benefits in urban image, public health, sustainability, road safety, mobility, tourism, economic reactivation, among others. Strategic Projects: 1. State Land-Use Planning Program 2. Land-Use Planning Program for the Metropolitan Zone of Oaxaca 3. Regulation of the Law of Land-Use Planning and Urban Development for the State of Oaxaca 4. Strategic Urban Infrastructure Projects for the metropolitan area. • Technological Stadium (Estadio Tecnológico in Spanish) – Central plaza (Zócalo in Spanish) Corridor. The route connecting the Technological Stadium and the central plaza has a length of 3 km and is located along the streets of Madero and Independencia, connecting various relevant locations. It will be possible to walk the entire route in 35 minutes and 18 minutes by bicycle with the implementation of the adequate infrastructure. • Zócalo – Canteras Corridor. This route has a length of 2.5 km connecting the historical center with different emblematic sites, which will aid in reactivating the local economy as well as improving the mobility between the Municipality of Santa Lucía del Camino and the center 5 of Oaxaca. It will be possible to walk the entire route in 30 minutes and 12 minutes by bicycle with the implementation of the adequate infrastructure. • Canteras - Tule Corridor. This route has a length of 8 km from Las Caneras City Park to Santa María del Tule centre, connecting various relevant locations. Also, this route connects several municipalities as well as provides a connection to the Southeast Acro cycleway through the Tlalixtac town entrance Junction. It will be possible to cycle the entire route in 30 minutes. • Corredor Calzada de la Republica. This route has a length of 1.5 km along the Republic road, starting from Niños Héroes road and ending at Eduardo Vasconcelos Boulevard. Along this route there are 17 plazas Joined as a large public space capable of being revived and transformed into a linear park. It will be possible to walk the entire route in 17 minutes and 8 minutes by bicycle with the implementation of the adequate infrastructure. Before the strategy outlined above, the state government of Oaxaca received support to develop a public policy for Non-Motorized Transport that promotes assertive public

  • Tourism, Heritage and Creativity: Divergent Narratives and Cultural Events in Mexican World Heritage Cities
    Tourism, Heritage and Creativity: Divergent Narratives and Cultural Events in Mexican World Heritage Cities Tourismus, Erbe und Kreativität: Divergierende Erzählungen und kulturelle Ereignisse in mexi-kanischen Weltkulturerbe-Städten MARCO HERNÁNDEZ-ESCAMPA, DANIEL BARRERA-FERNÁNDEZ** Faculty of Architecture “5 de Mayo”, Autonomous University of Oaxaca “Benito Juárez” Abstract This work compares two major Mexican events held in World Heritage cities. Gua- najuato is seat to The Festival Internacional Cervantino. This festival represents the essence of a Mexican region that highlights the Hispanic past as part of its identity discourse. Meanwhile, Oaxaca is famous because of the Guelaguetza, an indigenous traditional festival whose roots go back in time for fve centuries. Focused on cultural change and sustainability, tourist perception, identity narrative, and city theming, the analysis included anthropological and urban views and methodologies. Results show high contrasts between the analyzed events, due in part to antagonist (Indigenous vs. Hispanic) identities. Such tension is characteristic not only in Mexico but in most parts of Latin America, where cultural syncretism is still ongoing. Dieser Beitrag vergleicht Großveranstaltungen zweier mexikanischer Städte mit Welt- kulturerbe-Status. Das Festival Internacional Cervantino in Guanajato steht beispiel- haft für eine mexikanische Region, die ihre spanische Vergangenheit als Bestandteil ihres Identitätsdiskurses zelebriert. Oaxaca wiederum ist für das indigene traditionelle Festival Guelaguetza bekannt, dessen Vorläufer 500 Jahre zurückreichen. Mit einem Fokus auf kulturellen Wandel und Nachhaltigkeit, Tourismus, Identitätserzählungen und städtisches Themenmanagement kombiniert die Analyse Perspektiven und Me- thoden aus der Anthropologie und Stadtforschung. Die Ergebnisse zeigen prägnante Unterschiede zwischen den beiden Festivals auf, die sich u.a. auf antagonistische Iden- titäten (indigene vs.

  • The Challenges of Educational Progress in Oaxaca, Mexico
    Government versus Teachers: The Challenges of Educational Progress in Oaxaca, Mexico Alison Victoria Shepherd University of Leeds This paper considers education in the Mexican state of Oaxaca and the effects that an active teachers' union has had upon not only the education of the primary and secondary schools that the teachers represent, but also on higher educational policy in the state. The difference between rhetoric and reality is explored in terms of the union as a social movement, as well as the messy political environment in which it must operate. Through the presentation of a case study of a public higher education initiative, it is argued that the government's response to the teachers' union has included a “ripple effect” throughout educational planning in order to suppress further activism. It is concluded that the prolonged stand-off between the union and the government is counterproductive to educational progress and has turned the general public's favor against the union, in contrast to support for other movements demanding change from the government. Introduction Mexico has a turbulent history of repression and resistance, from the famed 1910 Revolution against the Spanish-dominated dictatorship producing Robin Hood type figures such as Emiliano Zapata, to the 1999 indigenous Zapatista Uprising in Chiapas, named after the aforementioned hero of the previous rebellion (Katzenberger, 2001). In the neighboring region of Oaxaca, teachers had been organizing and demanding change from their government. For over twenty years they have continued to struggle for improvements in infrastructure, materials, working conditions and pay. However, a growing resentment has accumulated amongst students and their families as days camping outside of government offices means increasingly lost learning time being absent from school.

Depardnent of loggand Geophysics, May 18, 1962 Certified by Thesis Supervisor Ab Accepted by ...... Chairman, Departmental Committee on Graduate Students M Abstract Mineralogy and Origin of the Titanium Deposit at Pluma Hidalgo, Oaxaca, Mexico by Edwin G. Paulson "Submitted to the Department of Geology and Geophysics on May 18, 1962 in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science." The Pluma Hidalgo titanium deposits are located in the southern part of the State of Oaxaca, Mexico, in an area noted for its rugged terrain, dense vegetation and high rainfall. Little is known of the general and structural geology of the region. The country rocks in the area are a series of gneisses containing quartz, feldspar, and ferromagnesians as the dominant minerals. These gneisses bear some resemblance to granulites as described in the literature. Titanium minerals, ilmenite and rutile, occur as disseminated crystals in the country rock, which seems to grade into more massive and large replacement bodies, in places controlled by faulting and fracturing. Propylitization is the main type of alteration. The mineralogy of the area is considered in some detail. It is remarkably similar to that found at the Nelson County, Virginia, titanium deposits. The main minerals are oligoclase - andesine antiperthite, oligoclase- andesine, microcline, quartz, augite, amphibole, chlorite, sericite, clinozoi- site, ilmenite, rutile, and apatite.

SYMPOSIUM: STUDIES ABOUT OAXACA AND NEIGHBORING AREAS (continuation). COORDINATOR: LAURA RODRÍGUEZ CANO, M.A. ABSTRACT: The following paper is a first attempt to know which are the boundaries shared by the states of Oaxaca and Guerrero, as well as which communities from both states have had conflicts and which are the different ways of naming these boundaries. The ultimate goal is to know in greater depth the relationships that existed in the past between the communities of Oaxaca and Guerrero. This analysis is based on a book from the 19th century entitled Arbitraje sobre los límites territoriales entre los estados de Guerrero y Oaxaca [arbitration on the territorial boundaries between the states of Guerrero and Oaxaca], a document kept in the National Library (reserved section). “An approximation to the geopolitical analysis of the boundaries between Guerrero and Oaxaca” The book called Arbitraje pronunciado por el general Mucio P. Martínez sobre los límites territoriales entre los estados de Guerrero y Oaxaca [Arbitration given by general Mucio P. Martínez about the territorial boundaries between the states of 1 Guerrero and Oaxaca] was published in Puebla in 1890F F. This is a document dealing with the technical and legal process of revising the boundaries that form the dividing line between the states named above. This process was undertaken in the last two decades of the 19th century. 1 This book is in the National Library of Mexico in the collection of reserved access. Figure 1.

Using the concept of economic convergence, we find mixed evidence for poorer areas catching up with richer areas during a single decade of economic growth. Indeed, some poorer regions thanks to negative growth have actually diverged away from wealthier areas.
