“…This shift is driven primarily by a 15-percentage-point rise in the use of protected wells, although nearly half (49%) of estate households continue to rely on rivers, springs, or tank water. • Most households in Sri Lanka report few insecurity experiences, and are therefore mostly water secure, with 90% not experiencing water insecurity. • Differences between groups are subtle and occur mainly between marginal and low levels of water security, rather than between fully secure and insecure households. • 68% of estate households (households on plantations), experienced at least water insecurity experience compared to only 28% of urban households and 33% of rural households. • Households in dry agroecological zones face slightly higher risks water insecurity (11%) com-pared to 9% of in both intermediate and wet zones. • Poverty is a key predictor of water insecurity. …”

Imaginaries, transformations, and resistances in Patagonian territories from a socio-ecological perspective. por Laterra, Pedro, Nahuelhual, Laura, Gluch, Mariana, Peri, Pablo Luis, Martinez Pastur, Guillermo José

“…Secondly, we applied the NSI framework to selected case studies addressing four main drivers of change in Patagonian socio-ecological systems (SES): (i) land dispossession, (ii) industrial forestry expansion, (iii) touristification, and (iv) damming of rivers for hydroelectric uses. According to our analyses, Patagonian SES are being affected by typical transforming forces of the modern imaginary (e.g., short term, productivity, reductionist-mechanistic vision, individualism) as well as forces of resistance that characterize postmodern (e.g., intergenerational concern, ecocentrism, holism) and indigenous (e.g., territorial ancestral rights, living well in harmony with nature) imaginaries. …”
