Tourism Governance

This study aims to analyze the perception of members of the Costa das Dunas Tourist Pole, in the State of Rio Grande do Norte [Brazil], regarding the potential effects of tourism in Protected Natural Áreas, especially in those that are in the process of being implemented. The state parks Mangues do Potengi, in Natal, and Jiqui, in Parnamirim, are studied. The research is exploratory, with a qualitative approach, using for data collection semi-structured interviews, followed by content analysis. It’s noted that the economic aspects are highlighted in their possibility of generating employment and income for the communities. It is also noteworthy that despite tourism being seen as a significant contributor to improving the resident’s quality of life, the involvement of these people in the planning and management of areas, as well as sensitizing visitors, is essential to mitigate undesirable impacts.

The Mind

During the counter-culture era of the 1960s and early 1970s, Big Sur became a magnet for hippies, back-to-the-land activists, and New Age visitors exploring the mind-expanding retreats at the Esalen Institute. Added to these arrivals were the more mainstream families flocking to the state parks and beaches, and wealthy new residents. Chapter 5 examines the arrival of these various admirers and their influence on Big Sur’s image and land management. This chapter also broadens the picture to examine the statewide impact of the 1969 Santa Barbara oil spill. The spill was a wakeup call to the state and the nation, and it reinforced the linkage between the quality of the environment and Americans’ quality of life. It spurred the passage of Proposition 20 in 1972 to protect California’s prized coastline. New state regulations required environmentally sensitive land management plans from all coastal counties. This chapter argues that Big Sur residents understood the importance (and accepted the irony) of coalescing as a vibrant community as they began to draft one of the most stringent antidevelopment plans in the state. Their sophisticated knowledge of land management helped retain this coastline’s distinction and their prized place within it.

New Host Species

The tick collection of the Museu de Historia Natural Capão da Imbuia was first sorted in the end of the 80's, and a list of specimens was published in 1992. During the last ten years, the collection has grown substantially and became the depository collection for type-specimens. The collection is the most regional representative depository of ticks from the State of Paraná, and it is one of the four largest Brazilian collections in number of specimens. All material was revised, and the data were computerized and catalogued in cards. To date, the collection includes 504 vials, with 2,073 specimens, belonging to 25 species and six genera of the families Argasidae and Ixodidae. The ticks were collected in regional and state parks and in green areas from 60 municipalities distributed within eight Brazilian states. This catalogue corrects some of the records published in 1992 for the state of Paraná and records new host species for Amblyomma aureolatum (Pallas, 1772), A. cajennense (Fabricius, 1787), A. longirostre (Koch, 1844), A. tigrinum Koch, 1844, Ixodes aragaoi Fonseca, 1935, I. auritulus Neumann, 1904, I. fuscipes Koch, 1844 and I. paranaensis Barros-Battesti, Arzua, Pichorim & Keirans, 2003. Amblyomma brasiliense Aragão, 1908, A. coelebs Neumann, 1899, A. nodosum Neumann, 1899 and I. fuscipes are recorded, for the first time, from the state of Paraná; A. longirostre from Rio Grande do Sul; I. fuscipes from Santa Catarina; I. schulzei Aragão & Fonseca, 1951 from Rondônia; and A. rotundatum Koch, 1844 from Bahia. In addition Haemaphysalis juxtakochi Cooley, 1946 and I. fuscipes are recorded for the first time, infesting birds.

Resumo: A população idosa tem aumentado em âmbito mundial, particularmente no Rio Grande do Sul. Atualmente grande parte desses indivíduos precisa de algum tipo de ajuda para realizar tarefas simples do dia-a-dia. O presente estudo objetivou conhecer os senti mentos do idoso em relação à possibilidade de dependência física, identificando as atividades realizadas para evitá-la ou retardá-la. A pesquisa descritiva com enfoque qualitativo contou com a participação de 10 idosas frequentadoras do Programa Maior Idade, em São Leopoldo, que não possuíam dependência física e tinham mais de 68 anos de idade. Os dados foram coletados por meio de entrevista semi-estruturada e interpretados pela análise de conteúdo contido nas falas das pesquisadas. Os resultados mostraram que a possibilidade de dependência física acarreta sentimentos de frustração e inutilidade, levando ao afastamento do convívio social, enquanto que a independência leva a sensação de autonomia e satisfação pela vida. Atividade física, lazer e cuidados com a alimentação foram citados como responsáveis pela sensação de bem-estar e por evitar ou retardar a dependência física.Conclui-se que a dependência física gera diminuição na qualidade de vida do idoso e pode ser evitada ou reduzida através da adoção de um estilo de vida saudável. Palavras-chave: Idoso Fragilizado; Qualidade de Vida; Estilo de Vida. Abstract:  The elderly population has increased worldwide, particularly in Rio Grande do Sul.

Abstract Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a progressive disease that targets many aspects of the nervous system, both motor and non-motor functions. Dance as an intervention provides a creative outlet that can be more motivating than other interventions by allowing people an opportunity for not only increased movement and activity, but also socialization. Creative expression through dance also has the potential to improve not only motor capabilities like balance, but also non-motor aspects like self-efficacy, cognition, and quality of life. For the community program described in this presentation, dance faculty led the dance and choreography components of the program while an occupational therapist (OT) served to maximize options for adaptations, safety, and accessibility. OT faculty also led efforts in gathering and analyzing data regarding community participation and program design utilizing a qualitative approach by conducting semi-structured interviews with five participants (four with PD, one with hydrocephalus, all over age 65) in the program. Content analysis of the data suggests some emerging themes which include: 1) forming common bonds and making friendships within the class due to PD diagnosis and similar enjoyment of the class, 2) increased appreciation and enjoyment of music, 3) appreciation of dance instruction, and 4) how transportation options, or lack thereof, impact participation in the class. These themes will assist in informing future program delivery with the hopes of reaching a larger contingent of the community who may also be interested in dance.

The activities of functioning and planning new transboundary protected natural territories inevitably require the availability and quality of cartographic rationale for the countries participating in the process. In many cases, the low involvement of near-border areas into economic activity provides a sufficient degree of ecosystem protection. The possibility of organizing transboundary specially protected natural areas appears in territories most significant in the view of preserving the natural diversity, adjacent to the borders of neighboring states, where arranging specially protected natural areas is extremely actual. The authors consider the task of applying the cartographic rationale at creating transboundary specially protected natural areas by the example of five territories operating at the beginning of 2019 in accordance with the concluded interstate agreements

ABSTRACT Objective: to describe the bodily awareness of people with stomies. Method: a descriptive study with a qualitative approach, carried out in the Ostomized Association of the State of Ceará, through semi-structured interviews with ten people with intestinal stomies, according to Merleau-Ponty's phenomenological thinking. Results: two categories of analysis emerged: The body that I have, in which the sensations of deficiency, imperfection and bad odor add to the feeling of strangeness towards one's own body, affecting the way of being in the world of each deponent; and The body that others perceive, in which the stoma is seen as an embarrassing and complex experience, since it hampers daily activities and conviviality with other people. Final considerations: The corporeal consciousness of Being-Stomp-in-the-world requires the movement to reconstruct the senses of the body from the body I have and from that which others perceive.
