El pasado viernes 17 de junio, 2016 se realiz\u00f3 la entrega de becas-est\u00edmulo como parte del Proyecto, Planteles Educativos Sustentables “Una Comunidad Norte – Sur, para la Investigaci\u00f3n-Acci\u00f3n”, otorgadas por SSHRC (Consejo de Investigaci\u00f3n para las Ciencias Sociales y las Humanidades) a estudiantes que se han destacado por su promoci\u00f3n de acciones de sustentabilidad y quienes trabajaran en sus tesis ese tema. El impulso se lo han dado los proyectos de investigaci\u00f3n que se realizan desde algunos a\u00f1os en colaboraci\u00f3n entre estudiantes y acad\u00e9micos de Canad\u00e1 y M\u00e9xico, espec\u00edficamente el Dawson College, la Universidad Pedag\u00f3gica Nacional (UPN) Unidad 171, la Universidad Polit\u00e9cnica del Estado de Morelos (UPEMOR), su m\u00e1s nuevo integrante, la Preparatoria Comunitaria de Tres Mar\u00edas de la Universidad Aut\u00f3noma del Estado de Morelos (UAEM).<\/p>\n

Esta actividad se convirti\u00f3 en la posibilidad de fortalecer el trabajo que ya se viene haciendo para la construcci\u00f3n de redes de apoyo entre las distintas instituciones de educaci\u00f3n superior y de impulso de acciones locales a favor de la atenci\u00f3n y preservaci\u00f3n del medio ambiente; que permitan resolver en lo local, problemas de orden global, con un enfoque \u00e9tico, como una manera de solidarizarse con el otro, incluso con el que no se conoce, pues los efectos de estos proyectos tendr\u00e1n alcances inimaginables.<\/p>\n

En su texto \u201cEn b\u00fasqueda de la pol\u00edtica\u201d, Bauman (2002) se pregunta \u201c\u00bfHay alguien capaz de hacer lo que haga falta hacer?\u201d<\/em> para generar una especie de conciencia colectiva que permita asumir una responsabilidad frente a las injusticias y los problemas humanos. Considero que cada uno de los estudiantes y egresados que fueron merecedores de los est\u00edmulos, han tomado en sus manos esa responsabilidad de la que cuestiona Bauman, le dan respuesta con sus acciones y los cambios en su trayectoria personal y acad\u00e9mica al incursionar en la sustentabilidad para lograr modificar algo en su entorno inmediato.<\/p>\n

Vale la pena se\u00f1alar que este proyecto no solo ha tocado a los estudiantes o acad\u00e9micos, sino tambi\u00e9n a los diferentes actores de las comunidades universitarias que por compromiso personal suman esfuerzos. Todos ellos est\u00e1n haciendo lo que hac\u00eda falta hacer. <\/em><\/p>\n

Con esto, se est\u00e1 realizando praxis para la formaci\u00f3n de agentes ciudadanos; <\/em>entendiendo por agencia, \u201cla capacidad de los ciudadanos activos de organizarse, para enfrentar la indignaci\u00f3n que les causa el presente y transformar su entorno social en la b\u00fasqueda de la vida buena para todos, utilizando sus saberes, movilizando recursos y asumiendo un posicionamiento moral\u201d (Bustos y Saenger, 2013, 334).<\/p>\n

Pero la agencia no se ejerce sola, se ejerce en colectivo, por eso, las acciones que este n\u00facleo de agentes est\u00e1n realizando, tiene el reto de buscar involucrar a otros, incluso traspasando las fronteras pol\u00edticas, para generar una ciudadan\u00eda planetaria. Indign\u00e9monos y hagamos, lo que haga falta hacer.<\/em><\/p>\n

Forming citizens through sustainability<\/p>\n

On Friday June 17, 2016 scholarships were given as part of the project, Sustainable Campuses “A North-South Research-Action Community” funded by SSHRC (Social Science and Humanities Research Council). The scholarships were given to students who have excelled in the promotion of sustainability actions and to those whose theses work is related to this topic. The motivation has come from research projects carried out for some years in collaboration between students and academics from Canada and Mexico, specifically Dawson College, the National Pedagogic University (UPN) Unit 171, the Polytechnic University of the State of Morelos ( UPEMOR) and its newest member, the Preparatory Community College of Tres Marias from the Autonomous University of the State of Morelos (UAEM).<\/p>\n

This activity strengthened the work already carried out to build support networks among institutions of higher education and boost local actions for the care and preservation of the environment; to resolve local, while addressing global problems with an ethical approach, as a way to show solidarity with the other, even if the other is not known, since the effects of these projects will have unimaginable scope.<\/p>\n

In his text “In search of politics”, Bauman (2002) asks “is there anyone able to do what is needed?” to generate a kind of collective consciousness that allows us to assume responsibility towards injustices and humanity’s problems. I believe that each of the students and graduates who were deserving of these scholarships, have taken in their hands that responsibility of which Bauman talks about, they respond to his question with their actions and through their personal transformation and that of their academic career, to venture into sustainability as a way to achieve change in their immediate environment.<\/p>\n

It is worth noting that this project has not only affected students or scholars, but also different actors in their university communities who through their personal commitment have joined forces. They are doing what is needed.<\/p>\n

With this, praxis is taking place for the formation of citizens as agents; understanding agency as “the ability of active citizens to organize themselves to face the outrage that the present conditions cause them and to transform their social environment in pursuit of the good life for all, using their knowledge, mobilizing resources and taking a moral position” (Bustos and Saenger, 2013, 334).<\/p>\n

But agency is not exercised alone. It is exercised collectively. Therefore, the actions that this core group of agents are performing, have the challenge of seeking to involve others, even going beyond political boundaries, to generate a planetary citizenship. Lets all become outraged and do, whatever is needed.<\/p>\n
