DR. LUCIA STAVIG HAS RESEARCHED THE CONSEQUENCES OF FORCED STERILIZATION OF INDIGENOUS WOMEN. LA DOCTORA LUCIA STAVIG INVESTIGA LOS EFECTOS DE LA ESTERILIZACIÓN FORZADA DE MUJERES INDÍGENAS. OCURRIÓ EN EL RÉGIMEN DE ALBERTO FUJIMORI.
By | Por: FERNANDO MILLÁN | AL DÍA News Print EditorBetween 1996 to 2000, an estimated 314,000 Peruvian women were sterilized, in most cases without their consent. Peruvian president Alberto Fujimori justi ed the program as a means of controlling overpopulation in zones with high levels of the terrorist group Sendero Luminoso activity, which overlapped with areas populated by indigenous peoples.
e consequences of this forced sterilization have been the subject of research by Dr. Lucia Stavig who is a Peruvian-born medical anthropologist, the daughter of an American father and a Peruvian mother. Her work focuses on indigenous health, policy and justice in terms of reproductive health and longevity of indigenous populations.
She took her rst step while pursuing her second master’s degree in anthropology at the University of Lethbridge in Canada. ere she began studying forced sterilization and understanding how a women’s rights program “became the instrument through which indigenous women’s rights were violated.”
Dr. Stavig describes what happened as “a crime against humanity”. In her quest to understand the situation, she met former Peruvian congresswoman Hilaria Supa Huamán, who invited her to visit a healing center she herself had set up for the sterilized women.
“Although it was largely women’s bodies that were sterilized, the whole shared body of the ayllu (form of social organization) was a ected by this violence,” said Dr. Stavig, who has received several awards for her research.
ose su ering from culture-related diseases rely on healers who can reconnect them with the spiritual life of the community. us, survival is a product of the connection to the earth.
In addition, this edition examines the e ects of the damage and reconstruction of the Interstate 95 overpass in Northeast Philadelphia following a tra c accident.
It is estimated that the 165,000 people who regularly travel there will have to nd alternate routes in and out of the city in that area.
What is the plan to rebuild Interstate 95 in Northeast Philadelphia? and what will happen while the reconstruction is underway? ese two questions are answered in the article.z
Unas 314 mil peruanas fueron esterilizadas entre 1996 y 2000, en la mayoría de los casos sin su consentimiento. El presidente del Perú era Alberto Fujimori y lo que buscó con esa decisión era controlar la superpoblación en zonas dominadas por el grupo terrorista Sendero Luminoso, en donde había poblaciones indígenas.
Las consecuencias por lo ocurrido han ocupado una investigación de la doctora Lucía Stavig, antropóloga médica nacida en Perú, hija de padre estadounidense y madre peruana. Su trabajo está enfocado en la salud indígena, la política y la justicia en cuanto a la salud reproductiva y la longevidad de las poblaciones indígenas.
El primer paso lo dio cuando realizaba su segundo máster en antropología en la Universidad de Lethbridge, en Canadá. Ahí empezó a estudiar sobre esterilización forzada y entender cómo un programa de derechos de la mujer “se convirtió en el instrumento a través del cual se violaron los derechos de las mujeres indígenas”.
La doctora Stavig cali ca lo ocurrido como “un crimen contra la humanidad”. En su búsqueda por entender la situación, conoció a la excongresista peruana Hilaria Supa Huamán, quien la invitó a conocer un centro de curación que había montado con las mujeres esterilizadas.
“Aunque la esterilización afectó principalmente a los cuerpos de las mujeres, todo el cuerpo compartido del ayllu (forma de organización social) se vio afectado por esta violencia”, señaló la doctora Stavig, quien ha recibido varias distinciones por sus investigaciones.
Quienes padecen enfermedades ligadas a la cultura se apoyan en curanderos que pueden reconectarlos con la vida espiritual de la comunidad. Así, sobrevivir es producto de la conexión con la tierra.
Por otra parte, en esta edición se analizan los efectos del daño y la reconstrucción del paso elevado de la Interestatal 95, en el noreste de Filadel a, después de un accidente de tránsito.
Las 165.000 personas que se calcula que habitualmente transitan por allí deberá buscar otras vías para entrar y salir de la ciudad en ese sector.
¿Cuál es el plan para reconstruir la Interestatal 95, en el noreste de Filadel a? y ¿qué pasará mientras se realiza la obra? son dos de las preguntas que se resuelven en el artículo. z

WHAT IS THE PLAN FOR REBUILDING I-95, IN NORTHEAST PHILLY, AND WHAT WILL IT LOOK LIKE IN THE MEANTIME?
¿CUÁL ES EL PLAN QUE HAY PARA RECONSTRUIR LA INTERESTATAL 95, EN EL NORESTE DE FILADELFIA? •QUÉ ASPECTO TENDRÁ MIENTRAS SE REALIZA LA OBRA?
By | Por: ALAN NUÑEZ | AL DÍA News Sta WriterOn Sunday morning, June 11, a tanker lost control under an I-95 overpass in Northeast Philly and crashed. e resulting blaze, which burned throughout the morning and killed the driver of the tanker, also collapsed the raised portion of the highway near Cottman Ave.
At the moment of the collapse, everything moving both ways on the major transportation artery stopped. To this day, the highway remains a ghost of itself with a massive hole at its center, and the 165,000 people that were estimated to travel along
ENGLISH ESPAÑOLthe road near Cottman Ave. on a daily basis would have to nd another way in and out of the city in the Northeast.
Many-a meme were born in reaction to the bad news, and everything from the recent poor air quality to Philly sports team playo failures were lumped in with the I-95 collapse as a sign of the times in the City of Brotherly Love.
Outside of the commuters, the collapse also a ects the supply chain for local small businesses that operate in the area. According to reporting by the Inquirer, eight percent of those 165,000 daily travelers were tractor trailers hauling goods to and from
En la madrugada del domingo 11 de junio, un camión cisterna perdió el control y se estrelló debajo del paso elevado de la Interestatal 95, en el noreste de Filadel a. El fuego resultante, que ardió durante toda la mañana y mató al conductor del camión cisterna, también colapsó el tramo elevado de la autopista, cerca de Cottman Ave.
En el momento del derrumbe, esta importante arteria de trá co fue cerrada en ambas direcciones. Al día de hoy, la autopista sigue siendo un fantasma de sí misma, con un enorme agujero en su centro. Las 165.000 personas que, según las estimaciones, circula-
ban a diario por la carretera cerca de la avenida Cottman tendrán que buscar otra forma de entrar y salir de la ciudad en el noreste.
La reciente mala calidad del aire, los fracasos de los equipos deportivos de Filadel a en los playo s y el colapso de la I-95 ha dado lugar a la aparición de muchos memes como una señal de los tiempos en la Ciudad del Amor Fraternal.
Aparte de los viajeros, el colapso también afecta a la cadena de suministro de las pequeñas empresas locales que operan en la zona. Según un informe del Inquirer, el 8 % de esos 165.000 viajeros diarios eran remolques que transportaban mercancías hacia y desde el noreste de Filadel a y hacia toda la costa este.
Funcionarios locales, estatales y federales acudieron al lugar el domingo en la tarde
Northeast Philly, and up and down the entire East Coast.
O cials from local, state and federal levels rushed to the scene to survey the damage later on Sunday and visited throughout last week.
“ is is a major artery for people and goods, and the closure will have signi cant impacts on the city and region until reconstruction and recovery are complete,” U.S. Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg wrote in a social media post.
Buttigieg visited the site of the collapse alongside city officials on Tuesday, June 13.
PA Governor Josh Shapiro rst visited the site alongside Mayor Jim Kenney and other city o cials on Sunday. He spoke of the “remarkable destruction” he witnessed and issued a disaster declaration a day later, on Monday, June 12. e move frees up $7 million in emergency funding to be put towards the rebuild e ort. Senator Bob Casey and Rep. Brendan Boyle also announced a further $3 million in federal emergency funding.
“I want to get this road reopened as quickly as possible,” Shapiro said at another press conference on Wednesday morning alongside leaders of the city’s building trades.
At the Wednesday presser, Shapiro also outlined his rebuild plan for the major artery.

“Esta es una arteria principal para personas y mercancías, y el cierre tendrá un impacto signi cativo en la ciudad y la región hasta que nalicen la reconstrucción y la recuperación”, escribió el Secretario de Transporte de Estados Unidos, Pete Buttigieg, en una publicación en las redes sociales.
Buttigieg visitó el lugar del derrumbe junto a funcionarios municipales el martes 13 de junio.
El gobernador de Pensilvania, Josh Shapiro, el alcalde Jim Kenney y otras autoridades municipales visitaron por primera vez el lugar de los hechos el domingo. Shapiro habló de la “notable destrucción” que presenció y emitió una declaración de catástrofe un día después, el 12. La medida libera 7 millones de dólares en fondos de emergencia que serán destinados a las tareas de reconstrucción. Otros 3 millones de dólares de fondos federales de emergencia fueron también anunciados por el senador Bob Casey y el representante Brendan Boyle.
“Quiero reabrir esta carretera lo antes posible”, declaró Shapiro en otra rueda de prensa celebrada el miércoles por la mañana junto con dirigentes de los gremios de la construcción de la ciudad. También describió su plan de reconstrucción de esta importante arteria.

A BILL FROM TONY CÁRDENAS AND NANETTE BARRAGÁN WANTS THE SAME ENFORCEMENT STANDARDS ACROSS SOCIAL MEDIA.
UN PROYECTO DE LEY DE LOS REPRESENTANTES TONY CÁRDENAS Y NANETTE BARRAGÁN BUSCA LOS MISMOS ESTÁNDARES DE CUMPLIMIENTO EN TODA RED SOCIAL.
By | Por: ALAN NUÑEZ | AL DÍA News Sta WriterMisinformation in non-English languages has been an issue going back to the 2020 presidential election. At the time, campaigns, social media platforms and other election stakeholders pinned all their focus on mis- and disinformation in English, which had ravaged the previous presidential election in 2016.
What occurred in 2016 in English, occurred in 2020 in Spanish and other languages as social media platforms were wholly unprepared for the misinformation onslaught, and it was the work of grassroots groups that mostly lled the information void.
In 2023, the government is now trying to step in.
U.S. Representative Tony Cárdenas — the rst Latino elected to represent the San Fernando Valley in Congress — introduced a bill co-sponsored by a group of several prominent Latino lawmakers on Capitol Hill that would hold social media platforms accountable for dis- and misinformation, and address the needs of tens of millions of non-English speakers.
“Time and again, social media platforms have repeatedly fallen short of moderating multilingual content. Disinformation is a danger to the non-English speaking community and must be taken seriously to protect our country and our democracy,” a statement from Cárdenas’ o ce read.
e LISTOS Act of 2023, or H.R.3806, would require platforms to communicate and enforce their policies using all languages, as well as require them to report on the processes used to enforce said policies as a way of combating misinformation that disproportionately hurts large non-English speaking communities.
“I’m proud to introduce the LISTOS Act to require platforms to consistently communicate and enforce their policies across languages and transparently report on the processes used to enforce policies. If we want to
La desinformación en idiomas distintos del inglés ha sido un problema desde las elecciones presidenciales de 2020. En aquel momento, las campañas, las plataformas de redes sociales y otros interesados en las elecciones centraron toda su atención en la desinformación en inglés, que había causado estragos en las anteriores elecciones presidenciales de 2016.
Lo que ocurrió en 2016 en inglés, ocurrió en 2020 en español y otros idiomas, ya que las plataformas de las redes sociales estaban completamente desprevenidas para la avalancha de desinformación. Fue el trabajo de los grupos de base el que llenó la mayor parte del vacío informativo. Ahora, el gobierno intenta intervenir.
El representante Tony Cárdenas, primer latino elegido para representar al Valle de San Fernando en el Congreso, presentó un proyecto de ley copatrocinado por un grupo de destacados legisladores latinos en el Capitolio que haría responsables a las plataformas de redes sociales de la desinformación e información errónea, y abordaría las necesidades de decenas de millones de personas que no hablan inglés.
"Una y otra vez, las plataformas de redes sociales se han quedado cortas a la hora de moderar los contenidos multilingües. La desinformación es un peligro para la comunidad que no habla inglés y debe tomarse en serio para proteger a nuestro país y nuestra democracia", se lee en un comunicado de la o cina de Cárdenas.
La Ley LISTOS de 2023, o H.R.3806, exigiría que las plataformas comuniquen y hagan cumplir sus políticas utilizando todos los idiomas, así como exigirles que informen sobre los procesos utilizados para hacer cumplir dichas políticas, como una forma de combatir la desinformación que perjudica desproporcionadamente a las grandes comunidades que no hablan inglés.
"Me enorgullece presentar la Ley LISTOS para exigir a las plataformas que comuniquen y apliquen de forma coherente sus políticas en todos los idiomas y que informen de forma transparente sobre los procesos em-
ENGLISH ESPAÑOL Rep. Tony Cárdenas is one of the leading Latino lawmakers behind a new bill to curb non-English misinformation on social media. Gettyimagesseriously address the problem of disinformation, then we must make the necessary investments to curb its spread and this bill does just that,” Cárdenas added.
e new bill was referred to the Committee on Energy and Commerce — a committee on which he sits — and the Committee on Foreign A airs to be determined by the Speaker for consideration.
Other co-sponsors include Rep. Nanette Diaz Barragan (CA-44), Rep. Jim Costa (D-CA-21), Rep. Adriano Espaillat (NY-

In 2022, the Congressional Hispanic Caucus — on which Cárdenas and several of LISTOS co-sponsors sit — were pushing for Meta, TikTok, YouTube and Twitter for meetings with their top executives to discuss
El nuevo proyecto de ley fue remitido a la Comisión de Energía y Comercio -comisión de la que Cárdenas forma parte- y a la Comisión de Asuntos Exteriores, antes de que vaya al Presidente de la Cámara para una acción adicional.

DR. LUCÍA STAVIG INVESTIGATES “THE CONDITIONS NECESSARY FOR WELLBEING IN RUNA WORLDS.”
LA DOCTORA LUCÍA STAVIG INVESTIGA “LAS CONDICIONES NECESARIAS PARA EL BIENESTAR EN LOS MUNDOS RUNA”.
BY | POR: JENNIFER HERNÁNDEZ | AL DÍA NEWS STAFF WRITERS
Dr. Lucía Stavig, a medical anthropologist, focuses her research on indigenous health, reproductive health policy and justice, and the longevity of indigenous populations. She holds a Bachelor of Arts from New College of Florida (2010), which she credits for “who I am in terms of a thinker and a scholar.”
Dr. Stavig was born in Peru and, as a small child, spent a formative year in Sucre, Bolivia. She is the daughter of an American father— a former Associate professor of history at the University of South Florida who is now deceased, and a Peruvian mother— a retired anthropologist from the University of South Florida. Dr. Stavig was a doctoral candidate at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and graduated last year.
She assures that without the Runa (Quechua or “the real people”) peoples, she would not exist: her parents met in Cusco while doing research with Runa peoples. She also credits her time in Sucre, Bolivia with teaching her “what it means to be a di erent kind of Misti (“white” person in the Andes).”
She received a Master’s in Justice and Social Inquiry from Arizona State University in 2013, where she conducted work with undocumented mothers and their experiences of mothering and in Post SB 1070, a controversial anti-immigration law notoriously known as the “show me your papers” provision. Her commitment to showing women’s experiences from their point of view and working alongside them to tell their stories was and remains a crucial part of her research.
Her study on forced sterilization started in Canada at the University of Lethbridge, from where she obtained a second Master’s in Anthropology in 2017. Dr. Stavig wanted to understand how a women’s rights program announced at the 1995 UN Fourth World Conference on Women in Beijing “became the vehicle through which Indigenous women’s rights were violated.”
Her research led her to Runa peoples, and as a trained medical anthropologist, she has spent signi cant time in di erent countries around the world— previously involved in legal anthropology, adding that “I worked in Chiapas researching on how human rights NGOs and indigenous organizations sort of work together or did not, and what that relationship was like.”
Her service in the eld has informed her desire to explore, research, and discuss the forced sterilization of Runa women—indigenous women still su ering from lingering trauma caused by e Plan for Government of National Reconstruction 1989, also known as the “Plan Verde.” e authors of “Plan Verde” were part of a military coup d’etat and the genocide of indigenous Peruvians through a “proposed sterilization as a means of controlling the terrorist threat, which they attributed, in part, to overpopulation in “red zones” – geographic zones with high levels of Sendero activity, which overlapped with areas populated by Indigenous peoples,” noted Dr.Stavig.
According to the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), Peru was among the rst countries to receive reproductive health funds in 1966— with USAID support, “Peru instituted a national policy guaranteeing couples the right to freely determine the number and spacing of their children,” which paved the way for the rise of modern contraceptives in the 1970s and legalization of tubal ligation and vasectomy under the Population Law in Peru in 1995— the o er

seemed more appealing as the former authoritative Peruvian President Alberto Fujimori declared that family planning services were “free of charged in public sector health facilities.”
e Washington Post reports that approximately “76% of Peruvians identify as Catholics; many abide by the Church’s teaching against contraception,” which explains the Church’s opposition to such a proposal, and despite its objection, the family planning program was a “success.”
From 1996 to 2000, an estimated 314,000 Peruvians were sterilized as part
Dr. Stavig says that “even through centuries of cultural transformation, Runa continue to live with a consciousness of their interdependence with plants, animals, ancestors, and earth beings like mountains, lakes, and rivers.
of former President Fujimori’s (1990-2000) National Reproductive Health and Family Planning Plan, which was regarded as respecting women’s rights and “supposedly had the objective of disseminating birth control methods in di erent regions of the country, with an emphasis on in the Andes and the Amazon,” as stated by the IWGIA.
However, the program lacked consent, and “statistical analysis shows that only 35% of them received full and informed consent,” said Dr. Stavig, which means 65% of women were forcibly sterilized under unsanitary conditions, leading to o en hurried or botched procedures primarily among poor, indigenous women.
“A crime against humanity,” said Dr. Stavig is what forced sterilization was— the irregularities manifested soon a er— USAID funded the forced sterilization and pulled funding in 1998 a er a group of Peruvians testi ed before Congress, Dr.Stavig explained. A er the USAID withdrawal,
the Nippon Foundation of Japan helped fund the sterilizations.
“I knew forced sterilization was a rights violation, but I knew it was a lot more,” explained Dr. Stavig as she explored what it meant to Runa women and their communities beyond the loss of their ability to reproduce, which led her to former Congresswoman Hilaria Supa Huamán at a governmental conference and to invite her to be on a panel at the Latin American Studies Association to discuss forced sterilization.
A er the panel, they conversed about how sick sterilized women still were and how little doctors and lawyers understood what was happening. Hilaria invited Dr. Stavig to visit the healing center she had put together with the sterilized women and to explore mancharisqa (soul fright) among this group of women.
For ten months, Dr. Stavig worked with collaborators at Mosoq Pakari Sumaq Kawsay (MPSK), Quechua, for “a New Dawn for Good Living” Healing Center, where she found that “Runa continue to conceive of health and illness not only as [the] outcome of organic processes in their physical bodies but as outcomes of social relations in the shared body of their more-than-human ayllus,” as explained in her dissertation. In other words, the ancestral social structure of Quechua people—composed of mutual obligations to each other not solely to blood relatives, but their connection to nature, animals, rivers, and lakes, were all part of their ancestry, or acompañamiento, of togetherness.
“ ough it was largely the bodies of women who were sterilized, the whole shared body of the ayllu was a ected by this violence,” she explained in her dissertation. “E orts to heal sterilized women, then, are e orts to heal entire worlds, to bolster them against colonial interruption,
and to build Indigenous futures in the face of continued colonization.”
“Do you think it’s PTSD?” she asked Huamán. “What you call PTSD, we call spirituality,” Huamán responded, which shows the di erence between Western and Quechua medicine and its connection to ailment.
She explains that to heal in ways of Runa is to acknowledge that Runa communities are worth defending, assuring that “one of the most beautiful ways that I’ve seen trauma dealt with is saying, you are trying to destroy us, and we are just not going to go” because “trauma, o en it’s like foreclosure of the future. It’s like you get stuck in the past or a present that is only about the past.”
However, Runa’s ways of healing are about making a future based on “Runa ethics and communities and love,” she assured.
Her research has amassed several recognitions and distinctions— the David M. Schneider Award for Bonds of Kinship: Reciprocity and the Shared Body of the Andean Ayllu awarded by the American Anthropological Association (2021) and the Helen Safa Prize for Unwittingly Agreed: Fujimori, Neoliberal Governmentality, and the Inclusive Exclusion of Indigenous Women awarded by the Gender Section, Latin American Studies Association, to name a few.
But those experiencing culture-bound illnesses lean on curanderos (traditional healers) that can reconnect Quechua people to their spiritual life of the community through di erent rituals.
65% of women
were forcibly sterilized under unsanitary conditions, leading to often hurried or botched procedures primarily among poor, indigenous women.
Surviving the Andes stems from that connection to the land, something Dr. Stavig explains was important to Huamán, who held a ceremony to gure out where to build the center, and “they found out that this was the spot that the ancestors were calling to them and saying we are buried here. We need healing too.”
“ e biggest protest to your destruction is continuing to live and to live well, to try to cultivate el buen vivir,” Dr. Stavig concluded. z
Culture informs how we experience our bodies.
La doctora Lucía Stavig, antropóloga médica, enfoca su investigación en la salud indígena, la política y la justicia en materia de salud reproductiva y la longevidad de las poblaciones indígenas. Tiene una licenciatura dada por el New College de Florida (2010), al que atribuye “lo que soy en términos de pensadora y académica”.
Nació en Perú y, de pequeña, pasó un año de formación en Sucre (Bolivia). Es hija de padre estadounidense -ex profesor asociado de historia en la Universidad del Sur de Florida, ya fallecido- y madre peruana -antropóloga jubilada de la Universidad del Sur de Florida-. Recibió su doctorado el año pasado de parte de la Universidad de Carolina del Norte en Chapel Hill.
Asegura que sin los pueblos runa (quechua o “la gente real”), ella no existiría: sus padres se conocieron en Cuzco mientras investigaban con los pueblos runa. También atribuye a su tiempo en Sucre (Bolivia) el haberle enseñado “lo que signi ca ser otro tipo de Misti (persona “blanca” en los Andes)”.
Recibió una maestría en justicia e investigación social de la Universidad Estatal de Arizona en 2013, donde realizó un trabajo con madres indocumentadas y sus experiencias de maternidad y sobre la ley Post SB 1070, una controvertida norma anti-inmigración conocida como la orden “muéstreme sus papeles”. Su compromiso de mostrar las experiencias de las mujeres desde su punto de vista y trabajar junto a ellas para contar sus historias fue y sigue siendo una parte fundamental de su investigación.
La Universidad de Lethbridge, en Canadá, le otorgó un segundo máster en antropología, en 2017, y fue allí donde comenzó su estudio sobre esterilización forzada. La doctora Stavig quería entender cómo un programa de derechos de la mujer anunciado en la cuarta conferencia mundial de la ONU sobre la mujer, celebrada en Pekín en 1995, “se convirtió en el instrumento a través del cual se violaron los derechos de las mujeres indígenas”.
Su investigación la condujo a los pueblos runa. Como antropóloga médica de formación, ha pasado mucho tiempo en distintos países del mundo, anteriormente involucrada a la antropología jurídica. Agrega que “trabajé en Chiapas investigando cómo las ONG de derechos humanos y las organizaciones indígenas trabajaban juntas o no, y cómo era esa relación”.
Su trabajo en este campo ha in uido en su deseo de explorar, investigar y discutir la esterilización forzada de las mujeres runa, que aún sufren de un trauma persistente causado por el plan de gobierno de reconstrucción nacional de 1989, también conocido como el “Plan Verde”.
Los autores del “Plan Verde” formaron parte de un golpe de estado militar y del ge-
nocidio de indígenas peruanos a través de una “propuesta de esterilización como medio para controlar la amenaza terrorista, que atribuían, en parte, a la superpoblación en las “zonas rojas”, zonas geográ cas con altos niveles de actividad del grupo terrorista de Sendero Luminoso, y que se solapaban con áreas pobladas por pueblos indígenas”, señaló la doctora Stavig.
Según la Agencia de los Estados Unidos para el Desarrollo Internacional (USAID por su sigla en inglés), Perú fue uno de los primeros países en recibir fondos para la salud reproductiva en 1966.
Con el apoyo de USAID, “Perú instituyó una política nacional que garantizaba a las parejas el derecho a determinar libremente el número de hijos y la diferencia de tiempo entre un hijo y otro, que allanó el camino para el auge de los anticonceptivos modernos en la década de 1970 y la legalización de la ligadura de trompas y la vasectomía en virtud de la Ley de población de Perú en 1995- la oferta parecía más atractiva cuando el dictador presidente peruano Alberto Fujimori declaró que los servicios de planicación familiar eran ‘gratuitos en los centros de salud del sector público’”.
De acuerdo con e Washington Post, aproximadamente “el 76 % de los peruanos se identi can como católicos, de los cuales muchos acatan las enseñanzas de la iglesia

contra la anticoncepción”. Esto explica la oposición de la iglesia a tal propuesta, y a pesar de su objeción, el programa de planicación familiar fue un “éxito”.
Entre 1996 y 2000, se calcula que 314.000 peruanas fueron esterilizadas en el marco del plan nacional de salud reproductiva y plani cación familiar del ex presidente Fujimori (1990-2000), considerado respetuoso de los derechos de la mujer y “supuestamente con el objetivo de difundir métodos anticonceptivos en diferentes regiones del país, con énfasis en los Andes y la Amazonía”, según a rma el Grupo de Trabajo Internacional para Asuntos Indígenas (IWGIA por su sigla en inglés).
Sin embargo, el programa carecía de consentimiento. “El análisis estadístico muestra que sólo el 35 % de ellas recibió un

consentimiento pleno e informado”, dijo la doctora Stavig. Esto signi ca que el 65 % de las mujeres fueron esterilizadas a la fuerza en condiciones insalubres, lo que llevó a procedimientos a menudo apresurados o con resultados indeseables principalmente entre las mujeres pobres e indígenas.
“Un crimen contra la humanidad” es lo que fue la esterilización forzada, indicó la doctora Stavig. Las irregularidades se manifestaron poco después. USAID nanció la esterilización forzosa y luego retiró los fondos en 1998, después de que un grupo de peruanos testi cara ante el Congreso de los Estados Unidos, explicó Stavig. Tras la retirada de USAID, la fundación Nippon de Japón ayudó a nanciar las esterilizaciones.

“Sabía que la esterilización forzosa era una violación de los derechos, pero sabía que era mucho más”, explicó al explorar lo que signi caba para las mujeres runa y sus comunidades más allá de la pérdida de su capacidad reproductiva, lo que la llevó a conocer a la ex congresista Hilaria Supa Huamán en una conferencia gubernamental sobre la esterilización forzosa. La invitó a participar en un panel de la Asociación Latinoamericana de Estudios para discutir sobre el tema en cuestión.
Después del panel, ellas conversaron sobre lo enfermas que seguían estando las mujeres esterilizadas y lo poco que médicos y abogados entendían lo que estaba ocurriendo. Hilaria invitó a la doctora Stavig a visitar el centro de curación que había montado con las mujeres esterilizadas y a explorar la mancharisqa (alma espantada) entre este grupo de mujeres.
Durante diez meses, la Dra. Stavig trabajó con colaboradores del Centro de Curación Mosoq Pakari Sumaq Kawsay (MPSK), quechua, para “un Nuevo Amanecer para el Buen Vivir”, donde descubrió que “los runa siguen concibiendo la salud y la enfermedad
no sólo como resultado de procesos orgánicos en sus cuerpos físicos, sino como resultados de relaciones sociales en el cuerpo compartido de sus ayllus más-que-humanos”, según explica en su tesis. En otras palabras, la estructura social ancestral de los quechuas -compuesta de obligaciones mutuas entre sí, no sólo con parientes consanguíneos, sino su conexión con la naturaleza, los animales, los ríos y los lagos- formaba parte de su ancestralidad, o acompañamiento, de unión.
“Aunque la esterilización afectó principalmente a los cuerpos de las mujeres, todo el cuerpo compartido del ayllu se vio afectado por esta violencia”, explicó. “Los esfuerzos para sanar a las mujeres esterilizadas, entonces, son esfuerzos para sanar mundos enteros, para reforzarlos contra la interrupción colonial y para construir el futuro indígena frente a la continua colonización”, agregó.
“¿Crees que es TEPT (trastorno de estrés postraumático)?”, preguntó a Huamán. “Lo que ustedes llaman TEPT, nosotros lo llamamos espiritualidad”, le respondió. Esto muestra la diferencia entre la medicina occidental y la quechua y su conexión con la dolencia.
Explicó que curarse a la manera runa es reconocer que vale la pena defender a las comunidades runa, asegurando que “una de las maneras más hermosas que he visto de tratar el trauma es diciendo: ‘estás intentando destruirnos, y simplemente no nos vamos a ir “porque” el trauma, a menudo es como una incautación del futuro’. Es como si te quedaras atrapado en el pasado o en un presente que sólo tiene que ver con el pasado”.
Sin embargo, las formas de curación runa consisten en construir un futuro basado en “la ética, las comunidades y el amor “, aseguró.
Son varios los reconocimientos y distinciones que han recibido sus investigaciones, como el premio David M. Schneider por Bonds of Kinship: Reciprocity and the Shared Body of the Andean Ayllu otorgado por la American Anthropological Association
(2021). Así como el premio Helen Safa por Unwittingly Agreed: Fujimori, Neoliberal Governmentality, and the Inclusive Exclusion of Indigenous Women, otorgado por la Gender Section, Latin American Studies Association, por nombrar algunos.
Pero quienes padecen enfermedades ligadas a la cultura se apoyan en curanderos que pueden reconectar a los quechuas con la vida espiritual de la comunidad a través de distintos rituales.
Sobrevivir a los Andes se deriva de esa conexión con la tierra, algo que, según explica la doctora Stavig, era importante para Huamán, tanto que celebró una ceremonia para averiguar dónde construir el centro, y “descubrieron que éste era el lugar donde los antepasados les llamaban y les decían: aquí estamos enterrados. Nosotros también necesitamos sanación”.
“La mayor protesta contra su destrucción es seguir viviendo y vivir bien, intentar cultivar el buen vivir”, concluyó la doctora Stavig. z

On the 125th anniversary of the beginning of the U.S. invasion of Puerto Rico, Eduardo Lalo states that “the lack of knowledge that large sectors of the Puerto Rican people have of the United States is more than obvious. Their relationship with the United States, besides being very often disconnected from the historical reality of that society, tends to prefer an uncritical and conservative tendency. The question is not what is the Puerto Rican fascination with the United States, but which of the multiple United States have Puerto Ricans tended to choose as an object of fascination and as a fertile medium for their opportunism? There are many beneficial things in American society, but in Puerto Rico its most vehement idolaters are rarely interested in imitating them. Hence, despite having su ered more than six decades of servile and enthusiastic bipartisanship before Washington, Puerto Rican towns, cities and countryside do not seem to have benefited from the emulation of road systems, public transportation, the quality of its private and public education systems, the level of e ciency of its enormous health network (...). Neither in a street in San Juan, nor in a condominium in Guaynabo (...) is there anything that resembles the United States”.
A propósito de los 125 años del inicio de la invasión estadounidense a Puerto Rico, Eduardo Lalo plantea que “salta a la vista el desconocimiento que grandes sectores del pueblo puertorriqueño tienen de Estados Unidos. Su relación con este, aparte de estar desconectada con suma frecuencia de la realidad histórica de esa sociedad, tiende a preferir una tendencia acrítica y conservadora. La pregunta no es ¿cuál es la fascinación puertorriqueña por Estados Unidos? sino ¿cuál de los múltiples Estados Unidos los puertorriqueños han tenido la tendencia de escoger como objeto de fascinación y como medio fértil para su oportunismo? Hay muchísimas cosas de provecho en la sociedad estadounidense, pero en Puerto Rico sus más vehementes idólatras rara vez se interesan por imitarlas. De ahí, que a pesar de haber padecido más de seis décadas de un bipartidismo servil y entusiasta ante Washington, los pueblos, ciudades y campos puertorriqueños no parezcan haberse beneficiado de la emulación de los sistemas viales, de la transportación colectiva, de la calidad de sus sistemas de educación privada y pública, del nivel de eficiencia de su enorme red sanitaria (…). Ni en una calle de San Juan, ni en una urbanización cerrada de Guaynabo (…) se encuentra algo que se parezca a Estados Unidos”.
Commentator Muni Jensen takes a look at what is involved in having investigations into presidents. “Donald Trump is in trouble. (...) The recent federal charges against him come on top of multiple investigations by Congress, the Justice Department and local prosecutors into his handling of classified documents, with charges relating to his role in the 2021 Capitol attack, and resistance to accepting Joe Biden’s win. (...) Trump continues to dominate the media, leaving little room for his republican rivals (...). In France, Israel, Brazil and 75 other countries world leaders have been imprisoned or convicted in the last 23 years. Figures such as Netanyahu and Lula rebounded with success. Cristina de Kirchner was saved from going to jail. Sarkozy in France was sentenced to three years in prison. (...) Corruption, abuse of power and impunity go hand in hand, fueled by a public disenchanted with its leaders, obsessed with its own interests and increasingly extremist”
La comentarista Muni Jensen hace una análisis de lo que implica que se abran investigaciones a los presidentes. “Donald Trump tiene problemas. (…) Los recientes cargos federales en su contra se suman a las múltiples investigaciones del Congreso, el Departamento de Justicia y fiscales locales sobre su manejo de documentos clasificados, con cargos ante su papel en ataque al Capitolio en 2021, y la resistencia a aceptar el triunfo de Joe Biden. (…) Trump sigue dominando los medios, dejando poco espacio para sus rivales republicanos (…). En Francia, Israel, Brasil y otros 75 países los mandatarios mundiales han sido encarcelados o declarados culpables en los últimos 23 años. Figuras como Netanyahu y Lula han rebotado con éxito. Cristina de Kirchner se salvó de ir a prisión. Sarkozy en Francia fue sentenciado a la cárcel. (…) La corrupción, el abuso de poder y la impunidad van de la mano, atizados por un público desencantado con sus líderes, obsesionado por sus propios intereses y cada vez más extremista”.
In an editorial, an in-depth analysis of what President Joe Biden said at the Safer Communities Summit, where he “acknowledged that the United States sends dangerous firearms, including assault rifles, into Mexican territory. The president admitted that this tra cking undermines the moral authority of his government when he discusses with his Mexican counterpart issues of common interest such as the tra c of narcotics (particularly fentanyl) to the north or issues related to the extensive shared border, because when they are raised he is asked about his actions to stop the flow of weapons that strengthens criminal groups. Biden took self-criticism to the point of asking: what in God’s name are we becoming if we don’t stop sending high-powered weapons to Mexico? The speech (...) breaks with the monolithic stance of the U.S. political class to absolve itself of any responsibility for the havoc caused by the lack of control in the manufacture, sale and possession of firearms”.
En un editorial se profundiza sobre lo dicho por el presidente Joe Biden en la Cumbre de Comunidades más Seguras, donde “reconoció que Estados Unidos envía a territorio mexicano armas de fuego peligrosas, incluidos rifles de asalto. El mandatario admitió que este tráfico resta autoridad moral a su gobierno cuando aborda con su contraparte mexicana problemáticas de interés común como el trasiego de estupefacientes (en particular, el fentanilo) hacia el norte o los asuntos relativos a la extensa frontera compartida, pues al plantearlos se le inquiere acerca de sus acciones para frenar el flujo de armamento que fortalece a los grupos criminales. Biden llevó la autocrítica al punto de inquirir: en el nombre de Dios, ¿en qué nos estamos convirtiendo si no paramos el envío de armas de alto poder a México? El discurso (…) rompe con la monolítica postura de la clase política estadounidense de deslindarse de toda responsabilidad por los estragos que ocasiona el descontrol en la manufactura, venta y posesión de armas de fuego”.
Analyst Carlos Alvarado Quesada argues that each Latin American country should have its own industrial policies and not be connected to that of the United States. He recalls what President Joe Biden said in his recent State of the Nation address: “Jobs are coming back, pride is coming back because of the decisions we made in the last few years”. And he discusses its scope.”Biden made this statement underpinned by an aggressive industrial policy on the part of the U.S. government over the past two years, emblematized by the passage of three laws with billions of dollars in stimulus. (...) This industrial policy of the federal government (...) aims to limit China in critical value chains in the context of geopolitical competition, moving away from the free trade narrative. (...) what is the best positioning of Latin America in the face of this policy (...) far from dogmas, they should consider the implementation of their own industrial policies. In the context of the decarbonization of the global economy and the energy transition, digitalization and the advancement of artificial intelligence and geopolitical competition, new development opportunities will arise”.
El analista Carlos Alvarado Quesada plantea que cada país de América Latina debe tener sus políticas industriales y no estar conectados con la de Estados Unidos. Recuerda lo que dijo el presidente Joe Biden en su reciente discurso del Estado de la Nación: “Los trabajos están regresando, el orgullo está regresando debido a las decisiones que tomamos en los últimos años”. Y analiza su alcance. “Biden hizo esta afirmación sustentada en una política industrial agresiva de parte del gobierno estadounidense durante los últimos dos años, emblematizada por la aprobación de tres leyes con miles de millones de dólares en estímulos. (…) Esta política industrial del Gobierno federal (…) pretende limitar a China en las cadenas de valor críticas en el contexto de la competencia geopolítica, alejándose de la narrativa del libre comercio. (…) cuál es el mejor posicionamiento de América Latina frente a esta política. (…) lejos de dogmas, deben considerar la implementación de sus propias políticas industriales. En el contexto de la descarbonización de la economía mundial y la transición energética, la digitalización y el despliegue de la inteligencia artificial y la competencia geopolítica, surgirán nuevas oportunidades de desarrollo”.
THE FABRIC WORKSHOP AND MUSEUM PRESENTS ‘SONIC PRESENCE (OR ABSENCE): SOUND IN CONTEMPORARY ART.’
THE FABRIC WORKSHOP AND MUSEUM PRESENTA “PRESENCIA (O AUSENCIA) SONORA: EL SONIDO EN EL ARTE CONTEMPORÁNEO”.
The Fabric Workshop and Museum (FWM) is an internationally renowned contemporary art museum dedicated to the creation and presentation of innovative works of art, founded in 1977 by Marion “Kippy” Boulton Stroud (1939-2015).
roughout FWM’s history, artists-in-residence have used sound as the focus or as a conceptual component of their residencies. ese projects have o en explored how to o er a direct translation of sound, an indirect representation of its energy and cultural forms, or inspire an audible response from an audience.
To continue using sound as an artistic inspiration, the museum will inaugurate this week Sonic Presence (or Absence): Sound in Contemporary Art, an exhibition featuring 22 artists who explore and engage with sound. Some artworks incorporate actual sound while others encourage viewers to rely upon their own experiences and memories of sound to interpret the works. Curated by Alec Unkovic, the exhibition is on view June 23, 2023 to January 7, 2024.
As the title suggests, the artworks presented in this exhibition demonstrate the notion of a “sonic presence,” a palpable connection between the visual and the aural. Featuring works from the museum’s collection alongside a selection of loaned works, Sonic Presence invites visitors to explore the resonant themes of sound in visual arts, be it implied, imagined, absent, or realized.
e artists in the exhibition are: Terry Adkins, Janine Antoni, Moe Brooker, Nick Cave, Lenka Clayton, Kevin Cooley, Peter Edwards, Guillermo Galindo, Ann Hamilton, Christine Sun Kim, Phillip Andrew Lewis, Glenn Ligon, omas Mader, Jason Moran, Robert Morris, Stephen Petronio, Raul Romero, Yinka Shonibare, Patrick Siler, Kiki Smith, Lenore Tawney and Mika Tajima.
For Yinka Shonibare, creating his Afrofuturist sculpture Space Walk (2002), which consists of two life-size astronaut gures suspended midair in the gallery suggesting the weightlessness of soundless space, involved scouring Philadelphia’s South Street neighborhood for vinyl records. Visual iconography of the 70s Philly Sound movement and then-emerging local artist Jill Scott came to serve as the inspiration for four custom batik textile designs that clothe the gures with the cultural energy of Black musical artists. e notion of clothing oneself in sound is explored further with Nick
Cave’s Soundsuit, with its vibrant armor of stu ed animals towering above a pair of colorful tight-wearing legs, and with Lenore Tawney’s Cloud Garment, in which silkscreened sheet music and the evocation of
El Fabric Workshop and Museum (FWM) es un museo de arte contemporáneo de renombre internacional, dedicado a la creación y presentación de obras innovadoras de arte,
Como sugiere el título, las obras de arte presentadas en esta exposición demuestran la noción de “presencia sonora”, una conexión palpable entre lo visual y lo auditivo. Con obras de la colección del museo y una selección de obras prestadas, Sonic Presence invita a los visitantes a explorar los temas resonantes del sonido en las artes visuales, ya sea implícito, imaginado, ausente o real.
Entre los artistas que exponen están Terry Adkins, Janine Antoni, Moe Brooker, Nick Cave, Lenka Clayton, Kevin Cooley, Peter Edwards, Guillermo Galindo, Ann Hamilton, Christine Sun Kim, Phillip Andrew Lewis, Glenn Ligon, omas Mader, Jason Moran, Robert Morris, Stephen Petronio, Raul Romero, Yinka Shonibare, Patrick Siler, Kiki Smith, Lenore Tawney y Mika Tajima.
Para Yinka Shonibare, la creación de su escultura afrofuturista Space Walk (2002), que consiste en dos guras de astronautas de tamaño natural suspendidas en el aire en la galería sugiriendo la ingravidez del espacio sin sonido, implicó buscar discos de vinilo en el barrio de South Street de Filadel a.
La iconografía visual del movimiento Philly Sound de los años 70 y de la entonces emergente artista local Jill Scott sirvió de inspiración para cuatro diseños textiles batik personalizados que visten las guras con la energía cultural de artistas musicales negros.
atmospheric calm merge together to form a protectively serene garment.
In his 2010 print on silk, Listen with your eyes ttgg, the late Philadelphia artist Moe Brooker, a preacher’s son, invites viewers to conjure the sounds of his childhood in the church through its vivid colors and abstracted forms, while Patrick Siler’s 1987 screenprinted Blaster captures a scene of listeners captivated by a classic boombox. Conversely, Peter Edwards’ interactive sculpture Specter, which consists of clusters of illuminated orbs descending from the ceiling, visibly responds to the sounds of visitors.
Instruments act as a recurring theme throughout Sonic Presence as both material and form. e exhibition includes two sculptures from Terry Adkins’ Aviarium series, the last body of work by the late Philadelphia artist, which translate wave vectors of bird vocalization into a monumental
fundado en 1977 por Marion “Kippy” Boulton Stroud (1939-2015).
A lo largo de la historia del FWM, los artistas residentes han utilizado el sonido como foco o componente conceptual de sus residencias. Estos proyectos han explorado con frecuencia cómo ofrecer una traducción directa del sonido, una representación indirecta de su energía y formas culturales, o inspirar una respuesta audible por parte del público.
Para seguir utilizando el sonido como inspiración artística, el museo inaugurará esta semana ‘Sonic Presence (or Absence): El sonido en el arte contemporáneo’, una exposición en la que participan 22 artistas que exploran y trabajan con el sonido. Algunas obras involucran sonido real, mientras que otras animan al espectador a basarse en sus propias experiencias y recuerdos sonoros para interpretar las obras. Comisariada por Alec Unkovic, la exposición estará abierta del 23 de junio de 2023 al 7 de enero de 2024.
La noción de vestirse con sonido se explora más a fondo con el Soundsuit de Nick Cave, con su vibrante armadura de animales de peluche que se eleva sobre un par de piernas coloridas y ceñidas, y con el Cloud Garment de Lenore Tawney, en el que la partitura serigra ada y la evocación de la calma atmosférica se fusionan para formar una prenda protectora y serena.
En su grabado sobre seda de 2010, ‘Listen with your eyes ttgg’, Moe Brooker, fallecido artista de Filadel a hijo de un predicador, invita a los espectadores a evocar los sonidos de su infancia en la iglesia a través de sus colores vivos y formas abstractas. Mientras tanto, la serigrafía ‘Blaster de Patrick Siler’, de 1987, capta una escena de oyentes cautivados por una grabadora portátil. Por el contrario, la escultura interactiva Specter, de Peter Edwards, formada por grupos de esferas luminosas que descienden del techo, responde visiblemente a los sonidos de los visitantes.
Los instrumentos son un tema recurrente en Sonic Presence, como material y como forma. La exposición incluye dos esculturas de la serie Aviarium de Terry Adkins, la última obra del fallecido artista de Filadel a, que traducen a escala monumental los vectores ondulatorios de la vocalización de los pájaros, utilizando plati-
ENGLISH ESPAÑOLscale, using cymbals and aluminum rods to capture song in purely sculptural form. Recent works by Jason Moran vividly capture the traces of a performance, with the artist exploring the residue of music-making by placing paper on the piano keys and using saturated pigment.
Place becomes the inspiration in Sonic Border for Mexican composer and artist Guillermo Galindo, who cra ed instruments from discarded items bearing the evidence of migration, which he collected on his travels along the Mexican-American border. Paired with recordings of Galindo’s original score, these artifacts resonate with the complexity and lived experiences of immigration.
Making its debut is e Sound of the Sea, a new collaborative work by former artist-in-residence Lenka Clayton with Phillip Andrew Lewis that explores the process of Foley artists, who utilize props to recreate everyday sound e ects in lms, radio, or television; for this work, Clayton and Lewis have collected and recontextualized unexpected objects used to create the sound of the ocean.
Glenn Ligon’s Skin Tight, made up of eight punching bags and graphic wallpaper, re ects on the notion of Black masculinity and the Black body as site and object. Adorned with the images of rappers such as Ice Cube and texts from Muhammad Ali, the installation confronts the visitor with the impact and implications of a punching bag’s activation.
Sonic Presence also explores the conceptual notion of the sound of an artwork’s own making. During her FWM residency, Mika Tajima began her ongoing Negative Entropy series, consisting of woven acoustic portraits that act as images of the condition of their production; having recorded industrial spaces employing Jacquard looms, the artist visually translated those recordings into spectrograms that were then produced into Jacquard-woven designs on some of those same looms. In a work that predates his residency at FWM, Robert Morris’ Box with the Sound of Its Own Making (1961) presents an ordinary wooden box that emits a recording of its own construction, complete with sawing and hammering as well as
pauses and sounds of activity less traditionally associated with progress.
Lenka Clayton’s ongoing Typewriter Drawing series explores both cacophony and absence through mark-making. Phillip Andrew Lewis and Kevin Cooley’s Harmony of the Spheres blends performance and relic. eir destruction of one-thousand silent vinyl records inspired numerous works, including a nal edition of one-hundred LP records made entirely from the ruins. When re-pressed, the new vinyls— available for visitors to listen to—are inscribed with the sounds of the buzzing factory as it works to press the silent record as well as the sounds of the records’ initial destruction when thrown against the wall.
e exhibition also explores communication in its myriad forms: Ann Hamilton’s 1993 editioned collar work, Untitled, explores the relationship between the body and language with an alphabet woven from horsehair. Over a dozen editions of Kiki Smith’s Singing Siren, an artist multiple made with FWM, form a chorus-in-waiting of mythological creatures whose song is simultaneously alluring and deadly. A prototype from Janine Antoni and Stephen Petronio’s 2016 work Swallow o ers custom seating that engenders connection and dialogue.
A two- lm work by Christine Sun Kim and omas Mader continues the exhibition’s focus on sound and communication. In Tables and Windows, the artists intertwine their bodies much like a game of collaborative improv, working together to negotiate their di erent skill sets as a native American Sign Language (ASL) speaker and an ASL learner. Another work on loan looks beyond human communication. Philadelphia artist Raúl Romero’s sculptural installation Music for plants, by plants merges speakers, sculpture, and a listening station to explore the role of the sculpture’s plant as recipient or maker of subsonic frequencies. Wielding unexpected humor, these works interrogate the perceived limitations of language and sound, inviting visitors to join the artists in search of their untapped potential.

llos y varillas de aluminio para capturar el canto en forma puramente escultórica.
Obras recientes de Jason Moran capturan vívidamente las huellas de una actuación, con el artista explorando los residuos de la creación musical colocando papel sobre las teclas del piano y utilizando pigmentos saturados.
El lugar se convierte en la inspiración en Sonic Border para el compositor y artista mexicano Guillermo Galindo, que fabricó instrumentos a partir de objetos desechados con la evidencia de la migración, que recogió en sus viajes a lo largo de la frontera mexicano-estadounidense. Combinados con las grabaciones de la partitura original de Galindo, estos artefactos resuenan con la complejidad y las experiencias vividas de la inmigración.
Debuta ‘ e Sound of the Sea’, una nueva obra resultado de la colaboración entre Lenka Clayton y Phillip Andrew Lewis, que explora el proceso de los artistas de Foley, que utilizan accesorios y técnicas para recrear efectos sonoros cotidianos en el cine, la radio o la televisión. Para esta obra, Clayton y Lewis han recopilado y recontextualizado objetos inesperados utilizados para crear el sonido del océano.
Skin Tight, de Glenn Ligon, compuesta por ocho sacos de boxeo y papel tapiz grá co, re exiona sobre la noción de masculinidad negra y el cuerpo negro como lugar y objeto. Adornada con imágenes de raperos como Ice Cube y textos de Muhammad Ali, la instalación confronta al visitante con el impacto y las implicaciones de golpear un saco de boxeo.
Sonic Presence también explora la noción conceptual del sonido de la creación de una obra de arte. Durante su residencia en el FWM, Mika Tajima comenzó su serie en curso Negative Entropy, que consiste en retratos acústicos tejidos que actúan como imágenes de las condiciones de su producción. La artista grabó espacios industriales que emplean telares Jacquard y luego tradujo visualmente esas grabaciones a espectrogramas, que se produjeron en diseños tejidos con Jacquard en algunos de esos mismos telares.
En una obra que precede a su residencia en el FWM, ‘Box with the Sound of Its Own Making’ (1961), de Robert Morris, presenta una caja de madera ordinaria que emite una grabación de su propia construcción, completa con el sonido de serrar y martillar, así
como pausas y sonidos de actividades menos asociadas tradicionalmente con el progreso. La serie ‘Typewriter Drawing’, de Lenka Clayton, explora la cacofonía y la ausencia a través del trazo. La serie ‘Harmony of the Spheres’, de Phillip Andrew Lewis y Kevin Cooley, combina actuación y reliquia. La destrucción de mil discos de vinilo silenciosos inspiró numerosas obras, incluida una edición nal de cien discos de vinilo fabricados íntegramente con las ruinas. Cuando se vuelven a prensar, los nuevos vinilos -que los visitantes pueden escucharllevan inscritos los sonidos del zumbido de la fábrica mientras trabaja para prensar el disco mudo, así como los sonidos de la destrucción inicial de los discos al arrojarlos contra la pared.
La exposición también explora la comunicación en sus múltiples formas: La obra ‘El collar’, de Ann Hamilton de 1993 sin título, explora la relación entre el cuerpo y el lenguaje con un alfabeto tejido con crin de caballo.
Más de una docena de ediciones de ‘Singing Siren’, de Kiki Smith, una obra múltiple realizada con FWM, forman un coro de criaturas mitológicas cuyo canto es a la vez seductor y mortal. Un prototipo de ‘La obra Swallow’, de Stephen Petronio y Janine Antoni, de 2016, ofrece asientos personalizados que fomentan la conexión y el diálogo.
Una obra de dos películas de Christine Sun Kim y omas Mader continúa el enfoque de la exposición con el sonido y la comunicación. En ‘Tables and Windows’, los artistas entrelazan sus cuerpos como en un juego de improvisación colaborativa, trabajando juntos para negociar sus diferentes habilidades como hablante nativo de lengua de signos americana (ASL por su sigla en inglés) y aprendiz de ASL. Otra obra en préstamo va más allá de la comunicación humana. La instalación escultórica ‘Música para plantas, por plantas’, del artista Raúl Romero, de Filadel a, fusiona altavoces, escultura de una planta y una estación de escucha para explorar el papel de la planta como receptora o creadora de frecuencias subsónicas. Con un humor inesperado, estas obras cuestionan las limitaciones percibidas del lenguaje y el sonido, invitando a los visitantes a unirse a los artistas en busca de su potencial inexplorado.
‘Sonic Presence (or Absence): El sonido en el arte contemporáneo’ es organizada por Unkovic, antiguo director de exposiciones del FWM.z

LAFAYETTE STUDENT NATALIA BAEZ SHARES HER EXPERIENCE AS A LOW-INCOME STUDENT WHO MADE IT TO GOLDMAN SACHS.
NATALIA BÁEZ, QUIEN HA ESTUDIADO EN LAFAYETTE, COMPARTE AQUÍ SU EXPERIENCIA COMO ESTUDIANTE DE BAJOS INGRESOS QUE LLEGÓ A GOLDMAN SACHS.
By | Por: JENNIFER HERNÁNDEZ | AL DÍA News Sta Writer
Born in the Bronx, New York, Natalia Baez, daughter of Dominican immigrants, received a full tuition scholarship to attend Lafayette College in Easton, Pennsylvania.
She experienced her father’s near deportation—a moment that marked her advocacy for immigration justice and love of law.
“I wanted to save my community and the world,” admits Baez, who acknowledges the large Latinx community in the South Bronx. But as it o en occurs, deportation, a painful experience among immigrants, is more common than many people realize— immigrants fuel the local economy and collectively contribute $100 billion in earnings each year, as reported by Scott M. Stringer, former New York City Controller in 2019.
Her passion for law led her to intern at Kaplan Hecker & Fink LLP, supporting case development. Although she notes this was not immigration law— the law rm has highly experienced litigators and lawyers.
Despite her interest in immigration law, she soon realized this career path was not for her and that the intense work hours made her feel like “I was doing it more for personal reasons instead of enjoying the career and passion for law.” A bittersweet moment that positioned her closer to her newfound passion: economy and sociology, discussed later.
In her senior year of high school, Baez received the Posse Foundation Full-Tuition Leadership Scholarship (2019-2023), given to individuals with extraordinary leadership potential that allows students who receive the scholarship to be an early decision for Posse’s partner colleges and universities. She also received e Madison Square Garden of Dreams Inspire Scholarship (2018-2023) for $25,000 a year—with Posse and Inspire, Baez attended Lafayette College for free.
Baez notes that during her rst semester in college, the diverse course selection exposed
Nacida en el Bronx, Nueva York, Natalia Báez, hija de inmigrantes dominicanos, recibió una beca completa para asistir al Lafayette College de Easton, en Pensilvania.
Su padre estuvo a punto de ser deportado, un momento que la marcó en su defensa de la justicia de inmigración y su amor por el derecho. “Quería salvar a mi comunidad y al mundo”, admite Báez, que reconoce la gran comunidad latinx del sur del Bronx.
Pero como ocurre a menudo, la deportación, una experiencia dolorosa entre los inmigrantes, es más común de lo que mucha gente cree: los inmigrantes alimentan la economía local y contribuyen colectivamente con 100.000 millones de dólares en ganancias cada año, según informó Scott M. Stringer, excontralor de la ciudad de Nueva York, en 2019.
Su pasión por el derecho la llevó a hacer una pasantía en Kaplan Hecker & Fink LLP, apoyando el desarrollo de casos. Aunque ella
señala que esto no era ley de inmigración, el bufete de abogados tiene litigantes y abogados altamente experimentados.
A pesar de su interés por el derecho de inmigración, pronto se dio cuenta de que esta carrera no era para ella y que las intensas horas de trabajo le hacían sentir que “lo hacía más por motivos personales que por disfrutar de la carrera y de la pasión por el derecho”.

her to economics and cultural anthropology— courses that did not interest her. However, a visiting professor saw the potential in her, “a corporate woman,” as he referred to her—this professor motivated Baez to continue with economics—later double majoring in Economics and Anthropology and Sociology.
Baez continued to take courses of interest during the pandemic— the lack of employment opportunities led her to McDonald’s.
A er working at the fast food restaurant during the summer of Freshman year, she acquired internship opportunities at Moelis & Company, Bank of America, and later at Goldman Sachs.
“Working at McDonald’s has helped me prepare to be more social and learn how to collaborate and talk to people,” Baez assures.
Although the Dominican is sad to part ways with Lafayette, she emphasizes, “I would do it all over again” because “I have met the most intelligent people, and it’s been so stimulating for my mind and soul.”
e devoted learner engulfed in a state of ecstasies, where serenity was the right way to live life, experienced Costa Rica as a study abroad student—undeterred by the recent pandemic or the potential of another shutdown, she just wanted “to live life like this,” free to let herself roam around and explore to become more culturally aware.
A er experiencing Costa Rica, Baez took a summer internship at Goldman Sachs as an asset management operations intern.
In 2021, Baez participated in the Hispanic/ Latinx Possibilities Summit, a 5-week program focused on learning more about careers at Goldman Sachs through interactive workshops. e following year, she became an intern at Goldman Sachs Dallas branch.
As an asset management operations intern, she submitted time-sensitive payment contacts to a third-party contractor to rebuild work ow for same-day funding. After her internship, she was o ered full-time employment in Dallas, which she accepted.
Enthused by the emotional and nancial support she received while navigating many challenges, Baez credits this for leading her “to get through all the obstacles and get the success that I did have.” z
lares al año; con Posse e Inspire, Báez asistió gratis a Lafayette College.
Báez señala que, durante su primer semestre en la universidad, la diversa selección de cursos la expuso a la economía y la antropología cultural, cursos que no le interesaban. Sin embargo, un profesor visitante vio potencial en ella, re riéndose como “una mujer de empresa”. Este profesor la motivó a continuar con economía y más tarde se especializó en Economía y Antropología y Sociología.
Báez siguió haciendo cursos de interés durante la pandemia. La falta de oportunidades de empleo la llevó a McDonald’s. Después de trabajar en el restaurante de comida rápida durante el verano de su primer año, consiguió unas prácticas en Moelis & Company, Bank of America y, más tarde, en Goldman Sachs.
“Trabajar en McDonald’s me ha ayudado a prepararme para ser más sociable y aprender a colaborar y hablar con la gente”, aseguró Báez.
Aunque la dominicana está triste por separarse de Lafayette, subraya, “lo volvería a hacer” porque “he conocido a la gente más inteligente y ha sido muy estimulante para mi mente y mi alma”.
La aprendiz dedicada sumida en un estado de éxtasis, donde la serenidad era la forma correcta de vivir la vida, experimentó Costa Rica como estudiante en el extranjero; sin inmutarse por la reciente pandemia o la posibilidad de otro cierre, solo quería “vivir la vida así”, libre para dejarse llevar y explorar para ser más consciente culturalmente.
Después de conocer Costa Rica, Báez hizo unas prácticas de verano en Goldman Sachs como becaria de operaciones de gestión de activos.
En 2021, participó en el Hispanic/Latinx Possibilities Summit, un programa de cinco semanas centrado en aprender más sobre las carreras profesionales en Goldman Sachs, a través de talleres interactivos. Al año siguiente, se convirtió en pasante en la sucursal de Goldman Sachs en Dallas.
Como becaria de operaciones de gestión de activos, presentó contactos de pago de tiempo crítico a un contratista externo para reconstruir el proceso de cómo los pagos fueron realizados en el mismo día. Tras las prácticas, le ofrecieron un empleo a tiempo completo en Dallas, que aceptó.
Entusiasmada por el apoyo emocional y nanciero que recibió mientras superaba muchos retos, Báez atribuye a esto el haberla llevado “a superar todos los obstáculos y conseguir el éxito que tuve”.z
Homeownership has long been a symbol of the American dream. Our homes often represent far more than just shelter – they’re central to family life and building strong communities.
The economic impact of homeownership can’t be overlooked either. Homes are the largest source of wealth for Americans, which makes buying a home one of the most important steps people can take toward creating generational wealth and securing
Ser propietario de una vivienda ha sido durante mucho tiempo un símbolo del sueño americano. Nuestras casas a menudo representan mucho más que un simple refugio: son fundamentales para la vida familiar y la construcción de comunidades fuertes. Tampoco se puede pasar por alto el impacto económico de la propiedad de una vivienda. Las casas son la mayor fuente de riqueza para los estadounidenses, lo que hace que la compra de una casa sea uno de los pasos más importantes que pueden dar las personas para crear riqueza generacional y asegurar el futuro nanciero de su familia. De hecho, según el último estudio
their family’s nancial future. In fact, according to Chase’s latest First-Time Homebuyer Study, over half (58%) of respondents are likely to purchase a home in the next 12 months and 70% see homeownership as an important step to building wealth.
While owning a home might be a goal for many, it can feel out of reach for those who’ve faced barriers to homeownership in the past. The good news is that many resources are available today to help people buy a home and stay there as long as they desire.
Here are three tips from Tanyika Rickard, Chase Community Home Lending Advisor, in the Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Delaware region, to help you qualify for a mortgage to purchase a home of your own.
1.Build and improve your credit.
It’s important to know where you stand so you can make a plan to maintain, improve or build your credit. Generally, a higher credit score means you’ll be able to qualify for the most competitive interest rates, which could help you save signi cantly. You can get a copy of your credit report for free at annualcreditreport.com, or check your score through your nancial institution.
If you have a low credit score, you can work on raising it by paying down credit card and loan balances and making bill payments on time. Avoid opening or looking for any new credit cards or loans while in the process of buying a home, as the credit checks required will lower your score and increase your debt-to-income ratio.
When applying for a mortgage loan, you’ll be asked to submit payment history to show you have a steady income. If you’re thinking of switching jobs before buying a home or while going through the buying process, consider waiting until after you’ve closed on your home.
2. Save for a down payment and look for nancial resources.
It’s a common misconception that you must put down 20% of the home price as down payment—there are many lower down
payment options available, such as Chase’s DreaMaker mortgage that could qualify you for down payments as low as 3%. However, keep in mind that the more you pay upfront, the less your monthly mortgage payment will be. Look for online mortgage calculators or speak to a lending professional to get an idea of how different down payments could affect your mortgage.
Take the time to research nancial resources that may be available to you. Many state and local governments offer rst-time homebuyer programs, which encourage residents to buy within their home state, with incentives that can include covering a down payment or lower interest rates. Lender-backed nancial resources may be available, too.
3. Find the mortgage option that works for you.
One mortgage doesn’t t all, and there are many options to suit all lifestyles and budgets. A 30-year conventional mortgage is most common, but you can also get a loan term of 10, 15 or 20 years.
Some mortgages have a xed interest rate, which means it doesn’t change over the life of the loan. There are also adjustable rate mortgages, which usually offer lower interest rates in the beginning, but adjust at certain intervals over time, typically increasing your overall payment. Get in touch with a lending professional who can help you understand your options.
Starting the homebuying process can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to do it alone. There are many tools, resources and professionals dedicated to helping you achieve the goal of homeownership.

de Chase sobre compradores de vivienda por primera vez, es probable que más de la mitad (58%) de los encuestados tiene planes de comprar una casa en los próximos 12 meses y el 70% considera que ser propietario es un paso importante para crear riqueza.
Si bien ser propietario de una casa puede ser un objetivo para muchos, puede sentirse inalcanzable para quienes se han enfrentado a obstáculos para ser propietarios de una vivienda en el pasado. La buena noticia es que hoy en día hay muchos recursos disponibles para ayudar a las personas a comprar una casa y permanecer en ella todo el tiempo que deseen.
Tanyika Rickard, asesora de préstamos para viviendas de la comunidad de Chase, en la región de Pensilvania, Nueva Jersey y Delaware, da estos tres consejos para ayudarlo a cali car para obtener una hipoteca para comprar una vivienda propia.
1.Construya y mejore su crédito.
Es importante saber cuál es su situación para poder elaborar un plan que le permita mantener, mejorar o construir su crédito. Por lo general, una puntuación crediticia más alta signi ca que podrá optar a las tasas de interés más competitivas, lo que podría ayudarle a ahorrar considerablemente. Puede obtener una copia gratuita de su informe crediticio en annualcreditreport.com, o consultar su puntuación a través de su entidad nanciera.
Si tiene un puntaje de crédito bajo, puede trabajar para aumentarlo pagando los saldos de las tarjetas de crédito y los préstamos y pagando las facturas puntualmente. Evite abrir o solicitar nuevas tarjetas de crédito o préstamos durante el proceso de compra de una vivienda, ya que las veri caciones de crédito necesarias reducirán su puntaje y aumentarán su relación deuda-ingreso.
Al solicitar un préstamo hipotecario, se le pedirá que presente un historial de pagos para demostrar que tiene unos ingresos estables. Si está pensando en cambiar de trabajo antes de comprar una casa o durante el proceso de compra, considere esperar hasta después de haber cerrado el contrato de compra de su casa.
2. Ahorre para el pago inicial y busque recursos nancieros.
Es un error común pensar que hay que pagar un 20% del precio de la vivienda como
pago inicial- existen muchas opciones de pago inicial más bajas disponibles, como la hipoteca DreaMaker del Chase, que podría cali carlo para pagos iniciales de tan sólo el 3%. Sin embargo, tenga en cuenta que cuanto más pague por adelantado, menor será el pago mensual de su hipoteca. Busque calculadoras de hipotecas en línea o hable con un profesional de préstamos para hacerse una idea de cómo los distintos pagos iniciales podrían afectar a su hipoteca.
Tómese el tiempo para investigar los recursos nancieros que pueden estar a su disposición. Muchos gobiernos estatales y locales ofrecen programas para compradores de vivienda por primera vez, que animan a los residentes a comprar dentro de su estado natal, con incentivos que pueden incluir la cobertura de un pago inicial o tasas de interés más bajas. Los recursos nancieros respaldados por prestamistas también pueden estar disponibles.
3. Encuentre la opción de hipoteca que sea más adecuada para usted.
Una hipoteca no sirve para todos, y hay muchas opciones que se adaptan a todos los estilos de vida y presupuestos. Lo más habitual es una hipoteca convencional a 30 años, pero también puede obtener un plazo de préstamo a 10, 15 o 20 años.
Algunas hipotecas tienen una tasa de interés ja, lo que signi ca que no cambia durante la vida del préstamo. También hay hipotecas de tasa ajustable, que suelen ofrecer tasas de interés más bajas al principio, pero se ajustan a determinados intervalos con el paso del tiempo, por lo general aumentando su pago total. Póngase en contacto con un profesional de préstamos que pueda ayudarte a entender tus opciones.
Iniciar el proceso de compra de una vivienda puede resultar abrumador, pero no tiene por qué hacerlo solo. Existen muchas herramientas, recursos y profesionales dedicados a ayudarle a alcanzar el objetivo de ser propietario de una vivienda.

Although the band’s musical capabilities have been universally acknowledged, Los Amigos Invisibles may be best known for their live performances.
They’ve toured in 60 different countries, playing at marquee venues throughout the world. The high-energy and audience-centered essence of their performances sets the band further apart from other groups. During an interview with La Musica en VIVO, frontman Briceño explained the emphasis they’ve put on live performances throughout their career.

Han realizado giras por 60 países diferentes, tocando en locales de primera la de todo el mundo. La gran energía y la esencia centrada en el público de sus actuaciones distinguen a la banda de otros grupos.
Durante una entrevista con La Música en VIVO, Briceño explicó el énfasis que han puesto en las actuaciones en directo a lo largo de su carrera: “Para nosotros, el directo ha sido muy importante, más que el disco”, dijo, señalando que dan el 110 % en el escenario en cada show.

First, the north and southbound sides of the I-95 a ected overpass needed to be demolished. e work was expected to take a week or so, but with crews working “around the clock” as Shapiro mentioned, it took until ursday, June 15.
Once the demolition is complete, crews will build up the ground level to meet the remaining elevated, una ected parts of I-95 and pave over it to create a temporary roadway while the overpass gets rebuilt. Despite the
plan, there is still no o cial timeline for when the reconstruction of the portion of highway will be complete.
Interested citizens can also watch a 24/7 livestream set up by the Governor’s O ce to watch the work happen in real time.

If the 10% down payment required for all purchased properties is greater than the $10,000.00 Deposit, the balance due to reach the 10% down payment amount is due by 5:00PM on the next business day after the auction date.
4. All properties are sold “AS IS” with NO expressed or implied warranties or guarantees whatsoever. The Sheriff and Bid4Assets shall not be liable as a result of any cause whatsoever for any loss or damage to the properties sold. In anticipation of participating in the Auction and purchasing a property, the bidder assumes all responsibility for due diligence. It is the responsibility of the bidder to investigate any and all liens, encumbrances and/ or mortgages held against the property which may not be satisfied by the post-sale Schedule of Proposed Distribution under Pa. R.C.P. 3136 (“Schedule of Proposed Distribution”).
5. The plaintiff’s attorney shall submit the plaintiff’s upset price (“Upset Price”) to Bid4Assets, via the attorney online portal, at least one (1) hour prior to the start of the Auction. The Upset Price is the least amount the plaintiff will accept for a property. The Sheriff’s costs will be added to the Upset Price to determine the reserve price for the auction. The reserve price is the minimum dollar amount the Sheriff will accept for the sale to go to a third-party bidder. Bidders will not know what the reserve price is, but they will see when the reserve price has been met.
6. The sale of the property will not be stopped unless The Sheriff’s Office is contacted by the Attorney on the Writ,byCourtOrderoratthe discretionoftheSheriff.
7. If the reserve price is met, the highest bidder shall be the purchaser. By close of business the next business day after the auction, the purchaser is responsible for 10% of the purchase price for each property purchased plus a buyer’s premium of 1.5% of the total purchase price of each property purchased. The purchaser shall pay the balance of 90% of the purchase price for each property purchased plus a $35 processing fee by 5:00PM EST on the fifteenth (15th) calendar day following the Auction Date unless that day falls on a holiday or weekend day, then the balance is due on the next business day by 5:00PM EST. Payments are due as stated above, NO EXTENSIONS AND NO EXCEPTIONS.
8. Failure to comply with the Conditions of Sale including, but not limited to, the failure to pay the remaining balance by any due date (the 10% down payment due date is the day following the auction; the 90% balance due date is 15 days after the auction date) and complying with all post-sale instructions required by the Sheriff and Bid4Assets, shall result in a default (“Default”) and the down payment shall be forfeited by the bidder.
9. If a bidder wins multiple properties and does not comply with the conditions of sale for each property he is deemed in Default and all of the consequences of a Default will apply.
10. The highest bidder shall be responsible for any and all post sale costs that are imposed by law,
which are incurredbythe Sheriff. Please be advised that the Realty Transfer Taxes have been calculated and included in the bid amounts.
11. On any auction that results in a third-party sale, the bidder who was directly outbid by the highest bidder will be given the option to register as a second bidder. If the second bidder accepts this option, he/she agrees to purchase the property for the same price as the highest bidder. The second bidder shall deposit 10% of the purchase price by 5:00PM EST on the first (1 st ) business day following the auction date. On that date the second bidder will be apprised of the status of the winning bidder’s deposit, and shall be told his/her 10% will be kept on deposit. The second bidder shall also be told he/ she is liable for the 90% balance fifteen (15) calendar days from this date, if the highest bidder does not comply. If the highest bidder did not complete the sale, second bidder will have five (5) calendar days to complete the sale. If that 5 th day falls on a holiday or weekend day, then the balance is due on the next business day by 5:00PM EST. If the second bidder is non-compliant he/she will forfeit his/her deposit to Sheriff. If the highest bidder completes the transaction, the second bidder will get his/her deposit refunded within 10 business days.
12. The Sheriff’s Office, in its sole discretion, may cancel the sale after the auction closes for any reason.
13. The Plaintiff shall submit any pre-sale postponements or stays to the Philadelphia Sheriff’s Office prior to 3:00PM the day before the auction.
14. The Plaintiff’s attorney shall enter any auction day postponements or stays on his/ her Bid4Assets attorney portal. This includes any postponement or stay that was not submitted to the Philadelphia Sheriff’s Office prior to the 3:00PM deadline the day before and any postponement or stay that occurs during the auction.
15. The Plaintiff, pursuant to Court Order, may cancel the sale after the Auction closes for any reason.

WARNING: All Sheriff’s Sales are strictly monitored for any and all suspicious and fraudulent activity (Including but not limited to Computer, Identity, Bank, Wire, etc.). If the Sheriff’s office detects any suspicious and/ or fraudulent activity during any sale, at the Sheriff’s discretion, the bidder’s account shall be suspended for whatever action deemed appropriate. Furthermore, those individuals face both criminal and civil liability and will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.
Very truly yours, ROCHELLE BILAL, Sheriff City and County of Philadelphia www.OfficeofPhiladelphiaSheriff.com

El sueño a menudo se considera prescindible en la sociedad acelerada de hoy. Sin embargo, es un pilar fundamental de la salud, y descuidarlo puede provocar numerosas consecuencias físicas, mentales y emocionales.
Los Centros para el Control y la Prevención de Enfermedades (CDC) informan que más de un tercio de los adultos estadounidenses no duermen lo su ciente regularmente. Los adultos de 18 a 60 años deben dormir al menos 7 horas por noche. Con un número creciente de personas que sufren de privación del sueño, es fundamental comprender la importancia del sueño y tomar las medidas necesarias para garantizar un horario de sueño saludable.
Sistema inmunológico debilitado: la privación crónica del sueño puede debilitar el sistema inmunológico, haciéndote más susceptible a enfermedades.
Mayor riesgo de enfermedades crónicas: se ha relacionado la falta de sueño con un mayor riesgo de desarrollar afecciones crónicas, como obesidad, diabetes, enfermedades cardíacas e hipertensión arterial.
Función cognitiva deteriorada: el sueño desempeña un papel crucial en la función cognitiva, incluida la consolidación de la memoria, la resolución de problemas y la toma de decisiones. La privación del sueño puede provocar una disminución de la concentración, un juicio deteriorado y un mayor riesgo de accidentes.
Problemas de salud mental: se ha asociado el sueño de ciente con un mayor riesgo de desarrollar trastornos de salud mental, como depresión, ansiedad y cambios de humor. Las personas con insomnio tienen más probabilidades de desarrollar depresión y ansiedad que aquellas que duermen bien.
Disminución de la calidad de vida: la privación del sueño puede provocar una menor productividad, mayor irritabilidad y disminución del disfrute de las actividades diarias. También puede tensar las relaciones y contribuir a una menor calidad de vida.
Establecer un horario de sueño: crea una hora de acostarse y de despertarse constante,
incluso los nes de semana. Esto ayuda a regular el reloj interno de tu cuerpo, facilitando conciliar el sueño y despertar de forma natural.
Crear un entorno propicio para el sueño: convierte tu dormitorio en un santuario para dormir manteniéndolo fresco, oscuro y silencioso. Utiliza cortinas opacas, máquinas de ruido blanco o tapones para los oídos para bloquear las perturbaciones.

Evita las pantallas al menos una hora antes de acostarte y considera usar un ltro de luz azul en tus dispositivos.
Tener en cuenta tu dieta: evita consumir comidas copiosas, cafeína y alcohol cerca de la hora de acostarse. En su lugar, opta por un bocadillo ligero y considera incorporar alimentos que promuevan el sueño, como almendras, pavo y cerezas.
Incorporar técnicas de relajación: practica técnicas de relajación antes de acostarte, como ejercicios de respiración profunda, meditación o estiramientos suaves. Esto puede ayudar a calmar la mente y preparar el cuerpo para dormir.
Haz ejercicio con regularidad: la actividad física regular puede ayudar a mejorar la calidad y la duración del sueño. Apunta a realizar al menos 150 minutos de ejercicio aeróbico de intensidad moderada por semana, pero evita los entrenamientos intensos cerca de la hora de acostarse.
