DIVERSITY AND PUBLIC POLICIES´s COURSE

Hi there, hope you are doing well and staying safe. As you can see in the title, today I will talk about a postgraduate course that I would like to take. I have always been very informed about the groups that throughout history have been excluded from decision-making, and, therefore, measures taken at the state level will impact these groups differently in comparison to the hegemonic groups of our society. When I speak of "excluded groups" I am speaking of women, sexual dissidents, indigenous peoples, immigrants, etc., all of them have been (to a greater or lesser extent) left out in the formulation, development and evaluation of public policies. Because of this, I see a need to introduce diverse perspectives within public organizations in order not to reproduce patterns of exclusion and discrimination. All this, I am inclined to the option of taking a course / diploma on "Diversity and Public Policies". I would like to study subjects such as the history of how publ

MY FUTURE JOB

  I entered this career always thinking about the vocation of public service, to be honest, any job that can satisfy the problems of the people in the state, I would be very grateful. Now, I would love to work in some ministries creating projects and public policies, it is the area that I like the most of public administration, I think I am very good at creating things and I also feel that I am very close to the realities of people to be able to implement good projects. It could also be in a municipality where the work is closer to the people. Everything I mentioned above of course I would do indoors, but only because I feel more comfortable and I think I perform better, I like routine and being in an office would not bother me. If the opportunity to travel were given it would be incredible, I would like to be able to compare the functioning of the government and public management in other countries, it would be incredible. But more than a trip, it would be to collect the good of the f

The New Constitution: Rights of women and LGBTIQ+ people

Human rights, including the rights of women and LGBTIQ+ people, are recognized in international treaties that Chile has ratified and that are in force. In this sense, there are international commitments that cannot be ignored. This was recognized in the “Agreement for Social Peace and the New Constitution”. For example, the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women or the Inter-American Convention to Prevent, Punish and Eradicate Violence against Women "Belém do Pará".  We have to be able to propose, explain and clearly establish the scope of the opening of national law to international law; the position that treaties occupies internally; and the ability to invoke them directly before a Chilean court; and the value of jurisprudence emanating from international courts.  The philosophy on which the ideals of freedom and equality that sustain some modern democracies rest is that of the liberalism of the “Enlightenment”, which visualized an abstra

Brief Analysis of my favorite Science Fiction book: Brave New World (Un Mundo Feliz)

As you saw in the title, today I will do a brief analysis of the novel "Brave New World" (in Spanish: Un Mundo Feliz). But first, I will do a little summary. Brave New World is a novel written by Adolf Huxley and published in 1932. It is interesting to notice that Huxley wrote this novel before the periods of totalitarianism and dictatorships, however, the text is based on a totalitarianism, without this book being a criticism of these regimes. The book relates a futuristic world 632 years after a world revolution that established a "World State" where humans are created and genetically altered. In addition, when they born, they are separated into castes. These castes are designated with letters of the Greek alphabet from the Alpha (upper caste) to the Epsilon (lower caste). The castes are physically and intellectually inferior to the previous one. This in order to have people adapted to their social position, during childhood they are conditioned, in order to b

MY BEST HOLIDAYS

Hi there,  On this occasion (as you saw in the title) I will tell you about my best holidays, specifically, my trip to Uruguay. I went to Uruguay in February 2017, when I was 15 years old. I didn't go with my parents; I went with my uncles and my two cousins ​​because they made me the invitation. We stayed in the country for two weeks. And one of the things that I remember the most and I am ashamed to this day, is that the first day we arrived at customs at the Uruguay Airport I dropped my identity card!!! I did not realize, however, a person who was behind me, passed it to me (fortunately) . To this day I wonder, what would have happened if I had lost it? Maybe they wouldn't even have let me in. Take care of your identity card, please. Don´t be like me. But well, that's a very bad anecdote. The first week of vacation we traveled to Montevideo, we stayed in a neighborhood called “Pocitos”. There we arrived at a very nice hotel, the best thing of that hotel was that it

A COUNTRY I WOULD LIKE TO VISIT

Well, hello there. As you already saw in the title, today I will tell you about a country that I would like to visit. A country that really attracts me its New Zealand. In fact, I would not only like to visit it, but also to live there. What interests me too much is its political system, its culture and its geography. I think it´s the ideal country to live. It attracted me from the moment I discovered that they followed some ideas of the social democracy and I was impressed with their way of organizing their entire system. I think the fact that they can live in a system with equality and freedom at the same time, convinces me too much. In addition, it´s one of the countries with the best happiness index and with public health and education services. As I mentioned before, culture is another topic that captivates me about New Zealand. I declare myself a “fan” that they ACTUALLY respect and appreciate their cultures too much. In fact, it is a plurinational state. I wish we co
