Estrategia de comunicación del patrimonio cultural inmaterial asociado a los saberes sobre hierbas medicinales en las plazas de mercado del Norte y Sur de Tunja
Luz Marina Nonsoque Cano; Carolina Rodríguez Lizarralde
This research aims to design a communication strategy for intangible cultural heritage related to the knowledge of medicinal herb use in the market squares of northern and southern Tunja. The research is framed within heritage management and communication, understanding that traditional knowledge consists of living practices transmitted from generation to generation and requires processes of visibility, appreciation, and social appropriation. Using a qualitative and ethnographic approach, participant observation and interviews with knowledge holders and stakeholders in the region were conducted. This allowed for the identification of knowledge transmission dynamics, tensions with modernization, and the need for communication strengthening. The results show that heritage communication is a fundamental means for safeguarding intangible cultural heritage (ICH), as it fosters dialogue among the community, institutions, and the public. As a result, a prototype territorial communication strategy is proposed that integrates pedagogical, digital, and participatory actions aimed at the social appropriation of heritage.

Comunicación Participativa en las Fiestas de San Sebastián de Ternera
Beatriz Obando Martínez; Alvelayis Nieto Mejía; Alvelayis Nieto Mejía
This research-creation project addresses the progressive weakening of the San Sebastián Festival in Ternera, Cartagena, as an expression of intangible cultural heritage. The study recognizes the festival as a space for collective memory, territorial identity, and intergenerational knowledge transmission, which has experienced a decline in community participation, particularly among younger generations. The main objective is to design a participatory communication strategy aimed at recovering, strengthening, and transmitting the social meanings, cultural practices, and memories associated with the festival. Methodologically, the research adopts a qualitative, participatory, and situated approach, using techniques such as semi-structured interviews, participant observation, social mapping, and intergenerational workshops. Findings reveal a disruption in cultural transmission, transformations in festive practices, and a symbolic disconnection between generations. However, opportunities for revitalization emerge through community co-creation and the use of contemporary communication tools. The main outcome of the project is the development of a community-based documentary that integrates oral memory, territorial transformations, and safeguarding proposals. The study concludes that participatory communication is a key strategy to reactivate social cohesion, strengthen heritage appropriation, and ensure the continuity of the festival as a living memory.

Impacto Del TLC Colombia- Estados Unidos
Forero-González, Stefania; Espejo, Yineth Ximena; Cabrera-Jiménez, Manuel Fernando
- This research examines the impact of the FTA between Colombia and the United States on the efficiency of the Colombian electricity sector with the emphasis on hydroelectric generation. The agreement that has facilitated the attraction of foreign investment, technological transfer and institutional restructuring, determining factors for the socioeconomic development of the country, is studied. - Through a documentary methodology based on official reports from the Mining-Energy Planning Unit (UPME) and the national operational council, the sector's capacity to promote equitable competition and strengthen the export of electrical services is evaluated. - The results highlight a significant increase in export capacity, which evolved from 1,200 MW in 2020 towards a projection of 2,500 MW by 2025. The study concludes that although the FTA offers competitive advantages and a regulatory framework for energy internationalization, the sector still faces critical challenges in terms of customs regulation, external dependence, and global competitive pressure.

Diseño de infraestructura operativa y posicionamiento comercial para la marca Panelas con Amor GLA en Briceño, Boyacá
Barbosa-Rodríguez, Adriana Patricia; Romero-Bernal, Harold Andrés ; Linares-Romero, Laura
This document aims to transform the reality of the company Panelas con Amor GLA, a family business located in Briceño, Boyacá, which currently operates artisanally and faces challenges growing in the market. The central problem is that the sugar mill's infrastructure does not comply with sanitary regulations due to a lack of adequate networks and physical organization, in addition to the brand lacking the necessary recognition to compete. To address this, the objective is to design a proposal that combines technical facility improvements through civil engineering with a new commercial image. The chosen methodology is mixed and follows a phased, step-by-step model, starting with a real diagnosis and leading to a design proposal. The results will verify dimensions through renovation plans to meet INVIMA standards and a new packaging design, concluding that integrating engineering with a solid marketing and advertising strategy can transform this rural business into a sustainable and competitive enterprise in the region.

Propuesta de integración de la gestión de riesgos en el Sistema de Gestión de la Calidad de la Fundación Universitaria San Mateo
Díaz Díaz Daniel; Diaz Ospina Laura Carolina
This project aims to integrate risk management into the Quality Management System of Fundación Universitaria San Mateo to strengthen institutional assurance and support preventive decision-making. The study followed a mixed-methods approach, mainly qualitative with quantitative support, using document review, interviews, surveys, and risk matrix analysis in the KAWAK platform. Results show that, while the institution has structured tools, their use is mostly documentary and reactive. A dynamic integration model is proposed, linking PQRSF information to risk maps to update controls and improve management. The model highlights the role of process leaders as the first line of defense and the use of technological tools to support institutional management. The conclusion is that integrating risk management into the quality system helps optimize processes, reduce recurring failures, and improve stakeholder satisfaction, in line with ISO 9001:2015 and ISO 31000:2018 standards.
