Efecto mariposa contra el hambre

Hace unas semanas, con el inicio de las clases en este nuevo curso escolar, la menor de mis hijas, que empieza 2º de la ESO, vino a casa contando que en la asignatura de Tecnología van a hacer una máquina de efecto mariposa. Y, a raíz de su relato, en una de nuestras habituales charlas de sobremesa después de la cena, hablamos de las teorías del matemático Edward Lorenz. Y comentamos esa idea de que pequeñas perturbaciones en un lugar pueden ocasionar grandes alteraciones en lugares distantes, del mismo modo que en algunos prototipos el simple e insignificante gesto de soltar una bola o de tumbar una ficha de dominó, en unas condiciones determinadas, desencadena un conjunto sorprendente de reacciones.

  • Colombia: Deputy Director for Programs

    Organization: International Rescue Committee
    Country: Colombia
    Closing date: 01 Apr 2019

    BACKGROUND:

    The International Rescue Committee (IRC) responds to the world’s worst humanitarian crises and helps people whose lives and livelihoods are shattered by conflict and disaster to survive, recover, and gain control of their future. Founded in 1933 at the request of Albert Einstein, the IRC works with people forced to flee from war, conflict and disaster and the host communities which support them, as well as those who remain within their homes and communities. At work today in over 40 countries and 22 U.S. cities, we restore safety, dignity and hope to millions who are uprooted and struggling to endure. The IRC leads the way from harm to home.

    IRC COLOMBIA

    A combined two decades of economic mismanagement, a drop in oil prices, and the deterioration of democratic institutions has resulted in a humanitarian crisis inside Venezuela. Insecurity has manifested following protests in April 2017 against the president and his government, particularly for failing to address the growing inflation rate which lead to large-scale food insecurity. The demonstrations were initially peaceful but grew in severity of violence as time passed. Venezuela’s economic devastation worsened in the last half of 2017. This caused a massive migration of Venezuelans into neighboring Colombia in search of affordable food, medicine and work. The number of Venezuelans living in Colombia has increased to more than one million people.

    In response, the IRC has launched emergency programming in Colombia, focusing on an integrated response involving child protection, women’s protection and empowerment activities, primary and reproductive healthcare, and cash transfer programming. The IRC is in the process of delivering these and future activities directly in Colombia, and in partnership with local civil society organizations in Venezuela. In Colombia, IRC currently has operations in Cucuta, and Medellin, and is soon to expand to Bogota and Barranquilla.
