Strengthening parental skills and attachment: proposal for a psychoeducational program for parents in Ciudad Juárez

The family is the first context where the human being learns to socialize and where educational models are installed. The mother and father are generally the main figures responsible for these learnings and are in charge of discipline and parenting strategies derived from parenting skills. There are risk factors that compromise these parental competencies in adults, such as the absence of significant attachment links, conflictive relationships in the environment, parental stress, and difficulty in understanding children´s needs, resulting in inappropriate parenting styles and harmful practices that trigger mistreatment and violence in the family environment. The bond of attachment is another factor that favors parental competencies, since it is oriented to attention, basic care and how to respond to the infant´s needs. In such a way that the proposed psychoeducational program to strengthen parental competences and attachment aims to be a support for parents with difficulties in their parental competencies, providing adequate resources in their parental role and that strengthens the bond of attachment. The proposed methodology is a qualitative approach with a pre-test – post-test desing with a single group and the selection of participants through non-probability convenience sampling.

Governance and public policies against rural depopulation through the case of La Rioja (Spain)

Rural depopulation has become one of the central issues on the public agenda in the last decade in Spain. However, despite this visibility and the measures that are being developed, the process is still present. Within the policies against depopulation and rural development, the role of participation and empowerment of the affected populations has become particularly important. The objective is based on the fact that, through a more horizontal governance, they are the protagonists of the actions and measures that affect them, and that this governance becomes a means to avoid the depopulation of rural areas. The European Union's LEADER approach and the Local Action Groups have become the paradigm of this rural governance that favours their development and tackles depopulation. This article analyses the situation of rural governance in the case of a Spanish region such as La Rioja, which is affected by the depopulation of a large part of its rural areas. It starts with a theoretical framework that addresses the concept itself and how it is being articulated with issues such as social capital, territorial capital and participation, as well as the strengths and weaknesses of the scenarios that are being generated, based on the differences between territories. Next, the frameworks of depopulation in Spain are presented, which are marking the very public policies on the issue. Finally, the situation in La Rioja is addressed, focusing on the role of the regional government's plans and strategies to tackle depopulation and the role of the Local Action Groups.

Caring for the elderly in Chile. Exploring the experiences of men who care for dependent people

Recognizing that research on care has tended to focus on the experiences of female caregivers, this study, based on the experience of men caregivers of dependent elderly people in Chile, has sought, among others, to answer what meanings give them the men caregivers in the care given to dependent elderly people, and what consequences the need to care for others has had for them. Through a qualitative study based on interviews with ten men caregivers of dependent people, it has been possible to determine that, among others, caregivers mean care as an expression of love, but also as a responsibility. On the other hand, caring for others has had negative consequences both for their mental health and for their income generation. The study concludes by recognizing, among other aspects, that interventions and policies of care that are conceived from a rights perspective, must address in a robust way the needs of both people involved in the arrangements, care receivers, and the caregiver. In doing so, the State has a crucial role, as the first guarantor of rights.
