Abstract: The purpose of this thesis is to analyse the Dutch-Colombian development cooperation projects in capacity building for higher education during the last five years. The implications, benefits and challenges of Colombia’s transition from recipient to a partner country for the Netherlands will be explored. The Netherlands has been a traditional donor country for Colombia since the 1960s, with a focus on water management, environment, food security, gender, good governance, and human priority sectors of bilateral collaboration programs. However, due to changing patterns of the Dutch foreign public policy for development cooperation since 2010 and also from the Colombian government since 2011, different sectors affirm that there is a shift in the way of doing partnerships with Latin American countries, especially with Colombia. There is a big debate between those who assume that capacity building programs for development in tertiary education are going to be replaced by business alliances and others who affirm that it will be a win-win partnership model between Colombia and the Netherlands. For this reason, in times of transformation development patterns questions arise such as how does the transition ‘from aid to trade’ between North-South countries, affects development effectiveness in Capacity Building programmes for tertiary education? What are the implications of the transition phase of the Dutch-Colombian partnership in the capacity building framework for Higher Education? Through semi-structured interviews with the main actors of 6 case studies from the Dutch-Colombian cooperation for capacity development in higher education (2010-2015) and a literature review of policy papers, institutional studies, reports, lectures and meetings, the present analysis will give a qualitative perspective to complement the existing literature and enrich the debate about upcoming challenges facing all the actors involved. Resumen: El propósito de la presente tesis es analizar los proyectos de cooperación al desarrollo Colombo-Holandesa en el fortalecimiento de capacidades en Educación Superior durante los últimos cinco años. Se examinarán las implicaciones, beneficios y desafíos de la transición de Colombia de ser un país receptor de ayuda a un país aliado para los Países Bajos. Tradicionalmente los Países Bajos han sido donantes de cooperación bilateral al desarrollo para Colombia desde la década de 1960, centrándose en la gestión del agua, el medio ambiente, la seguridad alimentaria, el género, la buena gobernanza y los derechos humanos. Sin embargo, debido a cambios en materia de política exterior holandesa para la cooperación al desarrollo desde 2010 y a su vez los cambios de política exterior del gobierno colombiano desde 2011, diferentes sectores afirman que hay un cambio en la forma de hacer alianzas con países latinoamericanos, especialmente con Colombia. Hay un gran debate entre los que asumen que los programas de desarrollo de capacidades en educación terciaria van a ser reemplazados por alianzas comerciales y otros que afirman que será un modelo de asociación gana-gana entre Colombia y los Países Bajos. Por esta razón, en tiempos de transformación se plantean cuestionamientos tales ¿ Cómo la transición "de la ayuda al comercio" entre los países Norte-Sur, afecta la eficacia de los programas de fortalecimiento de capacidades para la educación terciaria?¿Cuáles son las implicaciones de la transición de la cooperación Colombo-Holandesa en el marco de fortalecimiento de capacidades en Educación Superior? A través de entrevistas semi-estructuradas con los principales actores de 6 casos de estudio de la cooperación Colombo-holandesa para el desarrollo de capacidades en educación superior (2010-2015) y una revisión de literatura comprendida por documentos de políticas públicas, estudios institucionales, informes, conferencias y reuniones, el presente análisis brinda una perspectiva cualitativa para complementar la literatura existente y enriquecer el debate sobre los próximos desafíos que enfrentan todos los actores involucrados.

Resumo: Este trabalho apresenta um modelo de análise ambiental implementado em SIG, que utiliza uma metodologia de análise multicritério para avaliação de áreas para E&P de gás de folhelho (shale gas) com técnicas de fraturamento hidráulico. O modelo utiliza diferentes métodos de análise multicritério, como AHP, OWA e LCPA, para diminuir a subjetividade das avaliações meramente qualitativas. Foram selecionados os parâmetros ambientais relacionados com os potenciais impactos estratégicos deste tipo de atividade. O modelo foi montado no software ArcGIS e foram estabelecidos os valores padrão e opções de configuração para avaliação de cenários. O modelo foi aplicado no caso específico da Bacia do Rio Piquirí, no Estado do Paraná, Brasil. Os dados espaciais foram coletados a partir de fontes públicas e pré-processados. A pesquisa propôs as análises dos blocos oferecidos e concedidos na 12ª Rodada de Licitações de Petróleo e Gás do Brasil. Os resultados da avaliação mostraram que a vocação ambiental para E&P de gás de folhelho dos blocos oferecidos é muito baixa, classificando tais áreas como não adequadas para esta atividade. Finalmente, foi proposta a localização de um bloco de área equivalente aos concedidos de menor complexidade ambiental para este tipo de atividades.

Fueron seleccionados las parámetros ambientales relacionados con os impactos estratégicos potenciales de este tipo de actividad. El modelo fue montado en el software ArcGIS y fueron establecidos los valores por defecto e las opciones de configuración para evaluación de escenarios. Éste fue aplicado al caso específico de la Cuenca del Río Piquirí, en el Estado de Paraná, Brasil. Los datos espaciales fueron obtenidos de instituciones públicas y pre-procesados. La investigación propone el análisis de los bloques ofrecidos y concesionados en la 12ª Rodada de licitaciones de Petróleo y Gas de Brasil. Los resultados de la evaluación muestran que la vocación ambiental para E&P de shale gas de los bloques ofrecidos es muy baja, así son clasificadas como no aptas para esta actividad. Finalmente, fue propuesta la localización de un bloque de exploración de área equivalente a los bloques concesionados con una menor complejidad ambiental para estas actividades.

The importance of child’s health relies on its economic significance, given that is a key indicator of the quality of life in developing countries and a measure of their economic development. Its main role is to help policy makers take into account the importance of education as a relevant factor of productivity and intergenerational mobility. Child health is not only related with adult health, educational attainment, productivity, and income, but is also a development indicator all by itself. Among the eight Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) established in 2000 by the United Nations (UN) and adopted by the 193 members and 23 international organizations, at least four are directly related to child health or nutritional status. Many papers have been written about the relationship between child’s health and mother’s education; however, so far only one study has aimed to evaluate the importance of such factor in Colombia3. By using different estimation methods, this investigation will attempt to establish the importance of mother’s education on child’s health by analyzing a sample of 15,038 women with children between 0 and 35/59 months in Colombia. A positive association has important policy implications. For instance, if more educated mothers do in fact tend to have healthier boys/girls, then policy makers should focus on better education policies (such as school and class size, school selection, privatizing education, advanced teacher training and teaching methods, graduation requirements, and investing in infrastructure development, amongst others) to improve the health level of the next generation.
