    El desarrollo e impacto de un manual didáctico para la enseñanza de la sustentabilidad urbana en tres universidades chilenas
    (2024) Bergamini Ladrón de Guevara, Kay Joaquín; Ojeda Leal, Carolina; Araya Lira, María Jesús; Medina Guzmán, José Ignacio; Jaque Castillo, Edilia; Gutiérrez Zamorano, Patricia; Olea Peñaloza, Jorge
    El aprendizaje activo de la Sustentabilidad Urbana (SU) es un área en creciente desarrollo, por lo que es importante aportar a este corpus con nuevas experiencias concretas, particularmente, aquellas que provienen desde el Sur Global. Este artículo tiene como objetivo sistematizar la implementación piloto de un manual de aprendizaje de SU en instituciones de educación superior chilena que surgieron del curso Exploraciones urbanas: Territorio sustentable dictado en la Pontificia Universidad Católica. Acá se realizó una investigación cualitativa basada en análisis de contenido que utilizó un proceso metodológico teórico – aplicado: primero, se realizó una encuesta a exestudiantes del curso pionero considerando 5 parámetros: contenidos, organización de la enseñanza, metodologías didácticas, evaluación – retroalimentación, y relación entre el estudiantado – personal docente. Luego, desde los resultados de la encuesta se generó un manual con actividades didácticas para la SU, revisado en un grupo focal de salida a ex estudiantes, docentes de dichas universidades y pares expertos/as. A continuación, este manual se implementó en el curso Exploraciones urbanas en tres universidades chilenas de forma mixta en plataforma online y algunas actividades presenciales el 2022 y, al finalizar, fue evaluado en un nuevo grupo focal realizado por las y los docentes que impartieron el curso. El primer resultado corresponde a la encuesta en donde se observó una alta satisfacción con el curso (84% manifiesta que metodología de clases resulto útil para comprender la materia). El segundo resultado es el análisis de los grupos focales que utilizaron los mismos cinco parámetros que fueron insumos en la primera revisión del manual y en su versión final. Por último, se discute la idea de que este proyecto permitió abordar desde múltiples visiones la enseñanza de la SU en distintos contextos territoriales chilenos, lo que permitió relevar intereses comunes que pueden servir para que otros centros educativos latinoamericanos utilicen este material didáctico para la educación superior que está disponible en línea para su descarga gratuita en español.

    Landscape Fragmentation at Arauco Province in the Chilean Forestry Model Context (1976-2016)
    (2022) Jaque Castillo, Edilia; Ojeda Leal, Carolina Grace; Fuentes Robles, Rodrigo
    Land Cover–Land Use Changes (LULCC) and landscape fragmentation have been a common research topic for Geographic Information Systems (GIS) scientists since the middle of the 20th century; particularly, they have helped to make accessible the spatial characteristics of land management through time. We researched LULCC and landscape fragmentation in Arauco Province in Chile using satellite image analysis (1976–2016) and FRAGSTAT software. This area is in a constant struggle for land use between agroindustry, urban sprawl, and the expansion of exotic plantations (pine-eucalyptus) subsidized by Chilean government. The main results are: (1) we obtained the surface percentages for each land cover , (2) net changes for each cover by adding and losing surface (ha), (3) the transition map that enlightens the surface transformations of LULCC by its four processes substitution, abandonment, habilitation, regeneration and degradation, (4) the native forest loss in the first half of the period (1976–2001) was 1.85%/year, meanwhile for the second half (2001–2016) it was 6.5%/year, (5) landscape fragmentation processes occurred in patches and deforestation is its main driver, (6) aggregation changed the landscape since fragmentation and deforestation processes started the substitution of native forest, and (7) the habilitation of agricultural lands and degradation of wooded masses with exotic species increased their aggregation to 90%.

    Postwildfire Landscape Identity in Mediterranean Ecosystems: Three Study Cases from the Coastal Range of Central Chile
    (2021) Ojeda, Carolina G.; Jaque Castillo, Edilia; Fernández Castillo, Sandra
    Mediterranean ecosystems have been more frequently exposed to wildfires in recent decades. Those wildfires are caused by changes in land use and land cover that enable extensive forestry and farming. This qualitative research investigates a changing landscape identity related to a subjective perception after cyclical and seasonal wildfires (2012-2017). In this regard, we conducted twelve semistructured interviews among inhabitants from Quillon, Florida, and Yumbel (Mediterranean central Chile). The questions considered elements of the visual landscape, perception, identity, and management policies regarding landscape. Consequently, the core results of the research are the following: (1) Loss of traditional livelihood becomes more important than the damage of physical characteristics of a landscape (land cover, vegetation, and aesthetic features); (2) the relationship between the individual's perception of the landscape and the identity of the landscape changed drastically, especially before and after 2017 where wildfires followed patterns that were predicted by inhabitants; and (3) the community's expectations concerning reconstruction aid from the government were turned into frustration and feelings of helplessness. Considering this information, we suggest that a landscape identity is a holistic approach that helps us to understand the changes generated by fire disturbance in biophysical, social, and economic aspects.

    Resilience is not a one-step process: The importance to focus on the post-recovery phases at the Global South.
    (Palgrave Macmillan, 2020) Ojeda Leal, Carolina Grace; Jaque Castillo, Edilia
    In this chapter, resilience is not considered to be a one-step process, as many policy frameworks have been proposed. We presented some trends in resilience and post-recovery management theoretical frameworks. Also, we suggested a possible cycle of post-disaster recovery that could be divided into three elementary principles: (1) encourage multihazard studies to understand the possible hazards that could impact the urban areas, (2) prioritize the investment in multiple platforms to encourage the monitoring in real time at high-risk areas including the social and ecological variables, and (3) promote the community resilience reinforcing the local-level volunteering and the three stages of resilience. Lastly, we presented two study cases from South Africa and Chile marked by the tsunamis and wetlands
