My dream job

 My dream job would be work in which I study -Social Work- but in a different way. This job is always related to offices in different institutions, either in municipalities, schools, ministries or others. I don't think it's bad, but I really wouldn't like to work half of my life like this.  My ideal job would be to be able to make a community school, type after school, related to the care of young children and also older children, but I think it would be necessary to integrate them from a young age to generate a line of alternative education.  By this I mean giving them the possibility of learning things that schools do not teach, and that should be sought in other spaces different from education. I would integrate courses or workshops in different areas, on how to cook, how to take care of a vegetable garden, languages, sexual education, nutrition, how to respect animals, and emotional intelligence workshops, and I would also emphasize trades that are necessary for socie...

Series that I would recommend: Broken

Image
  In this post I recommend you to watch a series that is on netflix, it is not necessarily my favorite, but I think it is important to expand the information it delivers. This series is called Broken, it has about 5 chapters in which all of them have different topics. The director of the series is Chris Cechin‑De La Rosa (Rotten) y Christopher Collins (Anthony Bourdain: Parts Unknown). And they do not have characters per se, but it is focused on issues that affect our contemporary society. It revolves around the excessive consumption and the consequences they have in different countries. The purpose of this series is to raise awareness about what we consume.  The first chapter is about fake makeup, wanting to show that makeup is sold at very high prices but does not have the best health or the best conditions for workers who produce it.  The second chapter makes an investigation about a vapers company, which was under questioning because it generated a high consumption in...

A country I would like to visit

 I want to visit Brazil, because I like the tropical weather, diving in the beaches, I want to taste the fruit of this country and drink caipiriña.  Brazil is a very large country, in Latin America, with borders with every country except Chile and Ecuador.  Also, I want to visit the favelas despite it being an illegal form of community. Just in Rio de Janeiro there are around nine hundred and fifty favelas. Their people live the inequality of this country, so for me it is important to not ignore this reality and know the culture of this place.  Brazil have a many landscape, the parana river is my interesting to, despite i hate the anacondas, i think is a place to need to visiting because is a river that run throw for many countries. like obviously Brazil, Argentina and paraguay.  And i like to visit the river amazonas, because it is the largest river in Brazil and Latin america, its water flow starts in Perú, and passes by colombia and ends in the atlantic ocea...

Changes to my study programme: Social Work

The changes would i do in Social Work in Universidad de Chile, are about the focus on the investigation, i think that is not the problem, but there is the importance about the work that it is expected of the students with formation in this university.  There is so important the investigation that i think is a little bit of discriminate respect the others universitys or education institutions. Because his formation is so much assistancialism, and that is so criticized.  The assistancialism is a problem -for the vision of the Social Work of this University- because reproduce logics of Institutions that we would want to change because we see a problem with the operation. And I think that ok, but the problem for me is the discrimination for other forms of Social Work. Because this separatisted logics make a disunion with the practice of Social Work, I think the better action we make to do is combine the knowledges and make a Social Work with a union of thought, opinions with a com...

Best Holidays

 The best holidays i have ever had were a few years ago, exactly in the summer of 2020, in pandemic. Because, with my boyfriend, we visited El Valle del Elqui, a beautiful place in the region of Coquimbo.  The Valle del Elqui, is a valley next to the mountains of Coquimbo. There are some rivers, mountains, cacti, animals.  We visited a camping in Paihuano, a commune of the Valle. There is a beautiful river, we slept and woke up with the sound of it,  because we put the tent next  to it, but it was fantastic.  We met the old house of Gabriela Mistral, with the real name, Lucila del Perpetuo Socorro Godoy Alcayala, the famous poet. In this place. she was a teacher of primary school. Also, i ate the best humita i have ever eaten, because it was so sweet and soft.  We participate of a class of astronomy with a teacher, him learn us about the old and the younger stars. And we see Venus in the telescope.  Also, we visited a Viña called Do...

The Climate change

Image
 I like to study and learn about climate change. It is not as if I could enjoy it since in reality it is a catastrophe for our planet but I find it very interesting how people discover the reasons for natural phenomena and we realize that they are not so natural, they are caused by humans and their economic activity . I have learned that we all have great guilt that the earth is heating up a little more every day, since our lifestyle is very consumerist, it is almost impossible to satisfy a need without buying it and without this product being so processed and packaged noisy that generate more garbage. However, industries are the ones that pollute the most, since they need natural resources to function, and also generate waste only in the production process. With this I do not want to take responsibility from natural persons, we are responsible for what we consume since companies are enriching, so we must be more aware and know more about what we consume, however, companies are tho...

The Social Work

Image
I don't find my favorite website of social work, either a person who I admire with a biography, so I will write about the Social Work and Its important to society.  I think the social work can make the world a better place, because it is a social major, where we will work with many difficulties, differences, deficiencies and problems to find a solution and through that allow other people to make their lives better, easier, to take a load off them. For example, if you work in a school, you should solve adolescent problems and those of their families, whether they are economic problems, social risk, a context of violence, learning difficulties, among others. If you worked in jail, you should know how to intervene on people who have committed crimes such as stealing, killing, trafficking, I think this area is the most complicated since it is difficult to intervene in people who have experienced so many difficulties, whether economic or educational, that they end up committing crimes,...
