Gestão ambiental na Reserva Extrativista Ilha do Tumba - Cananéia/SP / Environmental management in the Extractive Reserve Tomb Island - Cananéia / SPLucas Milani Rodrigues 10 April 2015 (has links)
As unidades de conservação (UCs) também podem abrigar populações que nela vivem e dependem do meio em que estão inseridas para o sustento de suas famílias e desenvolvimento de seus modos de vida, o que as caracteriza como comunidades tradicionais. O espaço previsto em lei para que populações que se entendem como tradicionais possam manter seus meios de vida e cultura própria são as Reservas Extrativistas - RESEX - e as Reservas de Desenvolvimento Sustentável - RDS, UCs de Uso Sustentável. As UCs necessitam de uma gestão adequada para que se mantenham cumprindo os objetivos estabelecidos. Para monitorar essa forma de administração foram elaborados métodos de mensuração da efetividade de gestão com aplicação em diferentes áreas protegidas do Mundo. No entanto a categoria de RESEX não possui trabalhos publicados sobre a avaliação de gestão. Não foi feito um estudo em que a opinião das comunidades atendidas por uma RESEX seja levada em consideração neste processo. A presente dissertação adaptou o método de avaliação de gestão de UCs para esta tipologia e a área de aplicação destes conceitos e desenvolvimento da adaptação do método foi a Reserva Extrativista Ilha do Tumba em Cananéia/SP. A coleta de dados foi feita junto aos moradores beneficiados por essa Reserva (Comunidade do Marujá - Ilha do Cardoso e Comunidade do Ariri - parte continental de Cananéia) e Fundação Florestal, instituição estadual responsável pela gestão da UC, que também está sediada em Cananéia/SP. Primeiro foi feito um levantamento de dados qualitativos com entrevistas abertas nas duas comunidades e junto ao órgão gestor, assim como membros da sociedade civil que fazem parte do Conselho da UC. Posteriormente foi elaborado um questionário de avaliação aplicado ao Conselho Deliberativo da RESEX, gestor e equipe técnica da Fundação Florestal e presidentes das associações de bairro do Marujá e Ariri. O questionário foi dividido em duas partes: avaliação da Fundação Florestal, com questões mais amplas sobre o órgão gestor da UC (09 perguntas) e avaliação da RESEX Ilha do Tumba, com questões focadas às questões da UC (22 perguntas). A adaptação do método de avaliação de gestão da RESEX trouxe a percepção dos envolvidos em sua construção, o que resultou em uma ferramenta administrativa palpável à realidade local. Deste modo foi possível encontrar os pontos fracos da gestão da Fundação Florestal e da RESEX de modo participativo. O repasse da pesquisa foi feito nas reuniões do Conselho Deliberativo que ocorrem na comunidade do Marujá e os resultados da avaliação foram apresentados primeiro ao Conselho, antes do final da dissertação. / Protected areas (PAs) can also are home to populations who live and depend on the environment in which they are placed to support their families members and develop their ways of life, which characterizes them as traditional communities. The space provided by law for people who understand ourselves as traditional to keep their livelihoods and their culture are the Extractive Reserves - ER - and Sustainable Development Reserves - SDR, PAs of Sustainable Use. PAs need an appropriate management to stay in compliance with the established objectives. To monitor this administration form were developed measurement methods of the management effectiveness with applications in different protected fields in the world. However, the ER category doesn\'t have published works on its management evaluation. There wasn\'t a study done which communities opinion was taken into account. This dissertation adapted the PA management assessment method for this PA type and the application area of these concepts and development of adaptation of the method was the Extractive Reserve Tomb Island in Cananéia (São Paulo State - Brazil). Data collection was made with the residents benefit from this reserve (Community Marujá - Cardoso Island and Community Ariri - mainland Cananéia) and Forestry Foundation, state institution responsible for the management of PA, which is also based in Cananéia. First a survey was made of qualitative data through open interviews in the two communities and with the government body, as well as members of civil society that are part of the Council of PA. Later, it was prepared an assessment questionnaire to the Advisory Board of ER, manager and technical staff of the Forestry Foundation and presidents of Marujá and Ariri neighborhood associations. The questionnaire was divided into two parts: assessment of Forestry Foundation, with broader questions about the PA governing body (09 questions) and assessment of ER Tomb Island, with questions focused on issues of PA (22 questions). The adaptation of ER management evaluation method brought the perception of those involved in its construction, which resulted in a tangible administrative tool to the local reality. Thus it was possible to find the weaknesses in managing of the Forestry Foundation in a participatory manner. The research feedback session was made in the Board meetings occurring in Marujá community and the evaluation results were presented first to the Council, before the end of the dissertation.

New innovations in dementia research : from a new assessment of premorbid functioning to a review of the evidence base for post-diagnostic Cognitive RehabilitationPhillips, Joanne January 2013 (has links)
Background Dementia is a national priority for Scotland, and as such, fast and accurate diagnosis plus responsive and well-evidenced interventions post-diagnosis are key. Accurately estimating an individual’s level of premorbid functioning can be a crucial part of establishing that cognitive decline has taken place, enabling clinicians to be more confident and accurate in their diagnosis. Measures that assess premorbid ability should be able to 1) capture current ability in healthy controls and 2) resist the effects of cognitive decline when used in individuals with dementia. At the post-diagnostic stage, there is a growing evidence base for non-pharmacological, tailored interventions for individuals with dementia. However, the evidence base is limited, particularly so for Cognitive Rehabilitation. Objectives An empirical study was conducted in order to assess whether a newly developed measure that aims to capture lifelong cognitive reserve (the brain’s ability to withstand pathological change), the Cognitive Reserve Index Questionnaire (CRIq), can capture premorbid ability. Three research questions were addressed; 1) does the CRIq capture current ability in healthy controls? 2) is it resistant to cognitive decline when used with a patient group with dementia? and 3) how does the CRIq compare to a traditional measure of premorbid ability, the NART (National Adult Reading Test)? Another focus of development and innovation in dementia research is that of post-diagnostic interventions. A systematic review was therefore conducted in order to evaluate the effectiveness of Cognitive Rehabilitation for mild-moderate dementia (Alzheimer disease or mixed dementia) in relation to cognitive and functional outcomes. Due to the limited number of RCTs in this field precluding a clear understanding of the evidence base, the additional contribution of non-RCTs was also evaluated. Method For the empirical study N=20 healthy older controls and N=13 patients with dementia were recruited. In order to appropriately address the three research questions both groups were assessed using the NART, the CRIq and the MOCA (Montreal Cognitive Assessment). In addition, the control group were assessed on a measure of current ability, the WAIS-IV Perceptual Reasoning Index. For the systematic review of Cognitive Rehabilitation the CDCIG Specialised Register, ALOIS, was searched in order to identify relevant studies. In addition, previous reviews were searched to identify studies excluded on the basis that they were not an RCT. Results Results for the empirical study show both CRIq and NART were strongly correlated to current ability (performance on WAIS-IV PRI) in controls, although both significantly overestimated ability. CRIq performance was not affected by the presence of dementia whereas NART predicted premorbid ability was. CRIq and NART showed a different pattern of results between controls and patients, indicating that CRIq may more resistant to the effects of cognitive decline. Ten studies were identified for the systematic review; five RCT and five non-RCT. Study quality was assessed using a well-validated quality assessment tool, and indicated large variability. Eight of the ten studies reported a positive effect of Cognitive Rehabilitation. However, several studies were of poor quality and included aspects of other approaches in their intervention (e.g. Cognitive Training, Cognitive-Behaviour Therapy). Conclusions The empirical study found that CRIq over-estimated current ability in controls, but was resistant to cognitive decline in patients. The over-estimation of current ability may be accounted for by the CRIq being normed on an Italian population, thus not reflecting UK cultural norms (e.g. for length of schooling). When the NART and the CRIq were directly compared, the two measures were found to be related, but yet produced significantly different estimates of premorbid ability. This suggests that they may capture different facets of premorbid functioning, with the NART being primarily a verbal performance-based measure, and the CRIq capturing aspects of global cognitive functioning. Clinical implications include the potential utility of the CRIq for patients with language impairment. However the study conclusions are limited by a low N, and therefore have restricted generalisability. In the systematic review, the literature was exhaustively searched and evidence was found for the effectiveness of Cognitive Rehabilitation for mild-moderate Alzheimer disease and mixed dementia. Methodological limitations of the included studies are discussed, and clinical implications are identified. Both the empirical study and the systematic review highlight the need for greater research and development of methods by which dementia care is supported; through more effective methods of diagnosis, to a better evidence base for post-diagnostic interventions.
