    (Universidad de Deusto, Instituto de Derechos Humanos Pedro Arrupe, 2023-06-30) Elizondo Marañón, Itxaso; Echaniz Barrondo, Arantza
    La mutilación genital femenina (MGF) es una práctica tradicional muy arraigada y que cuenta con una profunda carga simbólica para las comunidades que la llevan a cabo. Ha sido calificada como un tipo de violencia ejercida contra las mujeres y contra los derechos humanos .El presente trabajo tiene un doble objetivo. Por un lado, analizar el marco normativo existente sobre MGF, partiendo desde tratados internacionales de Naciones Unidas hasta la normativa existente a nivel local en la Comunidad Autónoma del País Vasco (CAPV), y teniendo en consideración también declaraciones, cartas y protocolos de especial relevancia. Por otro lado, estudiar el enfoque de la ciudad de Bilbao, que puede ser considerado una buena práctica para la prevención de la MGF

    Critical thinking and student well-being: an approach in university students
    (Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2023-10-31) Vázquez Parra, José Carlos; Suárez Brito, Paloma; Alonso-Galicia, Patricia Esther; Echaniz Barrondo, Arantza
    Human well-being is a dynamic and changing concept as it depends on personal, social, cultural, and political factors and varies over time according to individual circumstances. Therefore, it is essential to address this issue from a comprehensive and multidisciplinary approach, seeking that individuals, from an early age, manage to develop skills and attitudes that allow them to achieve a balance in their lives. This article presents the results of the measurement of students’ perceived achievement of the competence of complex thinking in a subject focused on human development. Specifically, the research sought to identify whether there is a relationship between the level of critical thinking and the acquisition of skills associated with human well-being. The selection of critical thinking is based on the fact that this cognitive ability is one of the subcompetencies included in complex thinking. The sample was a group of university students from different disciplines and educational levels. Methodologically, descriptive analyses were made on the means of students’ responses to a validated instrument measuring the perceived achievement of complex thinking competency and its subcompetencies and the final evaluations of the students’ course. In conclusion, an improvement in the perception of achievement of complex thinking competency and its subcompetencies is demonstrated in the students, with critical thinking that achieved the best means, its increase being significant for the whole group and for women but not for men. In this sense, although it was not possible to demonstrate a statistically significant relationship between the development of this subcompetency and the acquisition of tools associated with well-being, data showing a possible association between these elements were obtained.

    Male chauvinism and complex thinking: a study of Mexican university students
    (MDPI, 2023-04-23) Carlos Arroyo, Martina; Vázquez Parra, José Carlos; Cruz Sandoval, Marco Antonio ; Echaniz Barrondo, Arantza
    This article presents the results of a study conducted on a sample of students at a techno-logical university in western Mexico, in which the aim was to identify a possible relationship between the presence of male chauvinistic behaviors and complex thinking. The argument that motivates this analysis focuses on the assumption that a person with high levels of complex thinking should have a more integrated vision of the capabilities of people beyond their gender, as well as a tendency to question, from a critical point of view, the possible stereotypes rooted in their environment. This article describes the study, its methodology, analyses, results, and the conclusion that high levels of complex thinking result in lower levels of male chauvinistic attitudes. Although it is recognized that this work is not exhaustive, its results are valuable for further educational, social, and gender studies research.

    Social innovation and employment in the digital age: the case of the connect employment shuttles in Spain
    (KeAi Publishing Communications Ltd., 2021-12-01) Enciso-Santocildes, Marta ; Echaniz Barrondo, Arantza ; Gómez Urquijo, Laura
    The digital revolution has shaped the modern world in unprecedented ways. Moreover, the COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the value of digital technologies. As the health crisis’ effect rippled through economic, political, and social structures worldwide, it also accelerated the adoption of digital tools to pool expertise, ideas, and capacities for generating solutions to the pandemic's short- and long-term implications. One of the areas where major challenges have arisen is employment. In the whole panorama of digital social innovation in Spain, we find an experience that can be described as outstanding and that links employment and digitalization. However, despite being highly successful, there is hardly any academic literature on this experience. The Connect Employment Shuttles will be the subject of specific in-depth analysis in this article. This is a socially innovative program that has been developed since 2020 in collaboration with the Santa María la Real Foundation. The Connect Employment Shuttles are an existing model specialization, the Employment Shuttles, but applied in the field of digitalization. In this article, we present the origin of the Employment Shuttles and the differences between them and other labor market integration initiatives, their constituent elements, and the social impact they exert. The research question of our study is whether this innovative mechanism combining employment and digitalization is valid and reliable. The answer is particularly relevant for private and public entities interested in implementing effective measures against unemployment, especially in vulnerable groups. The main contribution of this study is the systematized presentation of the experience of the Connect Employment Shuttles and its results so far, being the major limitation is the scarcity and dispersion of information sources.
