La ciudad de San Pedro Sula carece de áreas verdes y espacios recreativos adecuados para sus residentes. La falta de planificación urbana y la cesión ilegal de terrenos destinados a parques a instituciones son las causas principales de este problema. Esto afecta negativamente la calidad de vida de los ciudadanos, especialmente los niños y jóvenes que no tienen lugares seguros para jugar. Se propone que las comunidades soliciten a la municipalidad la construcción de parques y que se cumpla la ley de destinar el 15

Each technological age has been marked by a shift in how the industrial platform enables companies to rethink their business processes and create wealth. In the talk I argue that we are limiting our view of what this next industrial/digital age can offer because of how we read, measure and through that perceive the world (how we cherry pick data). Companies are locked in metrics and quantitative measures, data that can fit into a spreadsheet. And by that they see the digital transformation merely as an efficiency tool to the fossil fuel age.

Product Design Trends in 2024 | Teenage EngineeringsPixeldarts
The realm of product design is a constantly changing environment where technology and style intersect. Every year introduces fresh challenges and exciting trends that mold the future of this captivating art form. In this piece, we delve into the significant trends set to influence the look and functionality of product design in the year 2024.
How Race, Age and Gender Shape Attitudes Towards Mental HealthThinkNow
Mental health has been in the news quite a bit lately. Dozens of U.S. states are currently suing Meta for contributing to the youth mental health crisis by inserting addictive features into their products, while the U.S. Surgeon General is touring the nation to bring awareness to the growing epidemic of loneliness and isolation. The country has endured periods of low national morale, such as in the 1970s when high inflation and the energy crisis worsened public sentiment following the Vietnam War. The current mood, however, feels different. Gallup recently reported that national mental health is at an all-time low, with few bright spots to lift spirits.
To better understand how Americans are feeling and their attitudes towards mental health in general, ThinkNow conducted a nationally representative quantitative survey of 1,500 respondents and found some interesting differences among ethnic, age and gender groups.
Technology
For example, 52% agree that technology and social media have a negative impact on mental health, but when broken out by race, 61% of Whites felt technology had a negative effect, and only 48% of Hispanics thought it did.
While technology has helped us keep in touch with friends and family in faraway places, it appears to have degraded our ability to connect in person. Staying connected online is a double-edged sword since the same news feed that brings us pictures of the grandkids and fluffy kittens also feeds us news about the wars in Israel and Ukraine, the dysfunction in Washington, the latest mass shooting and the climate crisis.
Hispanics may have a built-in defense against the isolation technology breeds, owing to their large, multigenerational households, strong social support systems, and tendency to use social media to stay connected with relatives abroad.
Age and Gender
When asked how individuals rate their mental health, men rate it higher than women by 11 percentage points, and Baby Boomers rank it highest at 83%, saying it’s good or excellent vs. 57% of Gen Z saying the same.
Gen Z spends the most amount of time on social media, so the notion that social media negatively affects mental health appears to be correlated. Unfortunately, Gen Z is also the generation that’s least comfortable discussing mental health concerns with healthcare professionals. Only 40% of them state they’re comfortable discussing their issues with a professional compared to 60% of Millennials and 65% of Boomers.
Race Affects Attitudes
As seen in previous research conducted by ThinkNow, Asian Americans lag other groups when it comes to awareness of mental health issues. Twenty-four percent of Asian Americans believe that having a mental health issue is a sign of weakness compared to the 16% average for all groups. Asians are also considerably less likely to be aware of mental health services in their communities (42% vs. 55%) and most likely to seek out information on social media (51% vs. 35%).

Recreacion diseño avanzado ii
1. Recreación
La recreación, las actividades de entretenimiento y los juegos para todas las edades y
Capacidades son un excelente igualador. Para las personas con lesiones en la médula espinal,
Parálisis y otras discapacidades, la recreación puede ser una puerta a beneficios físicos y de
Salud. Pero la interacción social de la recreación es igualmente importante.
La recreación fomenta las relaciones humanas, mejora las relaciones sociales, la motivación y
la autoestima. La recreación y las actividades placenteras varían ampliamente, desde el
descenso de rápidos en un río a lo largo del Gran Cañón hasta jugar al ajedrez en el parque.
Existen innumerables maneras de adaptar la mayoría de las actividades para todos los
participantes. Casi todas las ciudades tienen implementados programas adaptados de
recreación.
PLANTEAMIENTO DEL PROBLEMA.
En la ciudad de San Pedro Sula, ubicada en la zona Norte de Honduras, ha
experimentado un crecimiento de la población en forma paralela a su desarrollo, La
población se estima en 444,570 habitantes, que constituye el 7% del total de la
población del país, el cual ha demandado una modernización y la creación de nueva
infraestructura recreativa popular.
En el terreno que se busca desarrollar el proyecto recreacional y comercial nos permite
darle aires de ambiente familiar a toda una sociedad a la cual le ha faltado espacios para
disfrutar en familia.
ENUNCIADO DEL PROBLEMA
La Propuesta Arquitectónica de un Centro Recreativo Público contribuirá al desarrollo
físico social de las familias en la Ciudad de San Pedro Sula.
PROPUESTA DEL TEMA
Por lo antes mencionado la ciudad de San Pedro Sula requiere de la creación de un
Centro Recreativo, que constara de áreas o espacios para la población de todas las
2. edades, y de igual forma de plantea integrar un área de comercio y de oficinas, las
cuales nos ayudarían a la rentabilidad del terreno.
JUSTIFICACION DEL TEMA
San Pedro Sula durante su evolución como tal no ha contado con la suficiente cantidad
de espacios físicos sociales dedicados al desarrollo de su población, espacios que
pueden generar sano esparcimiento y entretenimiento familiar en un mismo ambiente,
donde existan convivíos y puedan desarrollarse múltiples actividades de carácter social,
educativo, cultural y recreativo.
Para el caso la población infantil no cuenta con instalaciones adecuadas para ellos, los
cuales se ven obligados a realizar juegos no adecuados ni recomendados a niños.
En muchas ocasiones la población joven y adulta requiere llevar a cabo actividades de
capacitación con carácter ocasional o temporal de diversa índole, quienes ante la
necesidad de espacios deben trasladarse fuera de la ciudad de San Pedro Sula a un alto
costo y muchas veces por encima de las posibilidades económicas de la mayoría de los
pobladores.
Actualmente la ciudad cuenta con diversos lugares de recreación pero dirigidos a un
sola población, como ser los jóvenes, dejando a un lado los adultos mayores, además
que no están dotadas de servicios adecuados inherentes a los mismos como seguridad,
mantenimiento, aseo, área de juegos, área de descansó y/o contemplación, generando
esto que dichos lugares no llenen satisfactoriamente las expectativas de distracción
familiar.
Por lo anterior, se plantea este proyecto para iniciar con la propuesta de un centro
recreativo, el cual conste de área de comercio y de igual forma un área de negocios.
OBJETIVOS GENERALES DEL PROYECTO:
Satisfacer la demanda existente de espacios físicos funcionales para el desarrollo de las
actividades de esparcimiento, que serán dirigidas a la mayoría de la población.
Proponer un concepto espacial de Centro Recreativo-Comercio-Oficinas, como
respaldo a la prioridad actual que contempla la ciudad de San Pedro Sula.
OBJETIVOS ESPECIFICOS DEL PROYECTO:
Mejorar la imagen urbanística de la zona; proponiendo instalaciones físicas que estén
enmarcadas dentro del programa arquitectónico con el fin de brindar servicios
complementarios tales como: estacionamientos, comida, ampliación de calles, paradas
de autobuses e iluminación.
La realización de la propuesta del centro recreativo contribuirá a incentivar la economía
de la Ciudad; a través del flujo turístico, proporcionando a los usuarios recreación
accesible y un ambiente libre de contaminación, sin olvidarnos que en la propuesta se
3. plantea el comercio y el área de oficinas, los cuales nos proporcionaran más afluencia
de la población.

7. Investigación realizada por Diario La Prensa de la problemática de
falta de áreas de esparcimiento que tiene la ciudad de San Pedro Sula.
Falta de planificación tiene a la ciudad sin áreas verdes
En varios sectores de la ciudad hay muchas zonas deshabitadas con grandes extensiones
de tierra que contrastan con la falta de áreas de esparcimiento.
La ciudad de San Pedro Sula no cuenta con áreas verdes que permitan la recreación de
sus ciudadanos. Ese problema es más notorio en los sectores sureste y suroeste de la
ciudad.
En un recorrido que hicieron reporteros de LA PRENSA constataron que la mayor parte
de las colonias y barrios de la ciudad industrial carecen de áreas verdes a pesar de que la
Ley de Municipalidades establece que deben tener un 15% de terreno para ese fin.
En 18 colonias de las visitadas se verificó que doce no tienen una zona de recreación u
área verde donde se pueda construir un espacio que permita la recreación y
esparcimiento de sus habitantes.
Las pocas zonas de recreación en algunos sectores de la ciudad, como canchas
deportivas y plazas, están sucias y deterioradas.
La falta de preocupación de los líderes de las comunidades y de las autoridades
municipales impide que los niños y jóvenes puedan tener un espacio donde recrearse.
Uno de los factores por los que San Pedro Sula no tiene áreas verdes es que en las tres
pasadas administraciones edilicias muchos de esos espacios fueron cedidos a iglesias;
también ha incidido en gran medida la falta de planificación y desarrollo comunitario.
El portavoz del Ministerio Público, Elvis Guzmán, informó que la Fiscalía ha
presentado requerimientos contra las tres pasadas administraciones municipales por
haber cedido terrenos a personas particulares e instituciones.
El ex alcalde Óscar Kilgore está acusado por haber traspasado tres manzanas de terreno
de área verde a la fundación Caritas Sampedrana en la colonia Palos Verdes para
construir el centro comunitario de salud mental San Juan de Dios.
Guzmán señaló que el ex edil Rodolfo Padilla Sunseri también fue acusado en tres
ocasiones por haber donado terrenos municipales a iglesias evangélicas. Esos terrenos
están en residencial Los Cedros, en las colonias Villa Olímpica y El Pedregal.
Guzmán comentó que las acusaciones contra los ex alcaldes son por el delito de abuso
de autoridad al emitir un contrato privado de arrendamiento de un terreno municipal o
cederlo a otras personas.
8. La Ley de Municipalidades establece que los bienes destinados a áreas verdes no podrán
enajenarse, regalarse, gravarse, embargarse o rematarse, so pena de nulidad absoluta y
responsabilidad civil y penal para los involucrados.
“Cuando se construye una colonia en cualquier sector de la ciudad, quien lotifique está
en la obligación de ceder un porcentaje de terreno como área verde. El objetivo es
construir parques que permitan la recreación de sus habitantes”, puntualizó el portavoz
de la Fiscalía.
Proyectos deben solicitarse
El jefe de la Unidad de Gestión de Proyectos de la Alcaldía, Ramón Moncada, indicó
que pocas solicitudes les llegan para hacer proyectos que permitan la recreación de los
ciudadanos.
“El presidente o líder de la comunidad debe mandar la petición de ayuda para poder
construir el parque o lugar de esparcimiento en su colonia. Los pobladores tienen que
priorizar sus proyectos, ya que existe mucha necesidad”, refirió.
En lo que va del año solamente han recibido dos solicitudes para la construcción de
parques recreativos en los sectores de Chamelecón y la Santa Marta.
“La plaza en la colonia Santa Marta ya está presupuestada y pronto se comenzará a
construir”, dijo.
Moncada indicó que las solicitudes entran a discusión a la Corporación Municipal, que
aprueba dichas obras.
“Los cabildos abiertos son para conocer las necesidades y los problemas de los
pobladores. Visitamos algunas comunidades para identificar sus necesidades, ya que es
un deber, según lo establece la Ley de Municipalidades”, señaló.
Cuando un patronato quiere mejorar las condiciones de una plaza de recreación ya
existente debe acudir a la unidad de Participación Ciudadana. “Con gusto ayudamos a
las comunidades a equipar y construir lugares de esparcimiento. Depende de lo que
deseen los ciudadanos para sus colonias”, explicó.
Por ello es de suma importancia que los presidentes de los patronatos o líderes
gestionen apoyo para sus comunidades.
“Hay áreas verdes que pasan a manos de la Alcaldía para que ésta pueda construir
plazas de recreación. Si en una comunidad hay parques o centros de esparcimiento, los
ciudadanos deben vigilar su mantenimiento”, puntualizó.
Áreas grises
El sociólogo Julio Gom aseguró que las áreas verdes en las comunidades sin lugar a
dudas mejoran la calidad de vida de sus habitantes.
Indicó que las urbanizadoras tienen que dejar un 15% de área verde por cada zona que
estén lotificando.
“Muchas áreas verdes se han convertido en áreas grises porque se las han cedido a
iglesias, escuelas u otras instituciones”, dijo.
Gom refirió que esta situación ha traído varias consecuencias, ya que las áreas verdes
son para proteger el ambiente comunitario, ofrecer tranquilidad y esparcimiento a los
ciudadanos con fines recreativos y para la salud.
9. “En la medida que no tengamos áreas verdes y parques recreativos, que ha sido la
característica de estas zonas urbanas, menos posibilidades tenemos de desarrollar una
buena calidad de vida y un sentimiento más integrado de pertenencia a las
comunidades”, comentó.
El sociólogo, quien es catedrático de la Universidad Nacional Autónoma en el Valle de
Sula, refirió que si una colonia no tiene plaza recreativa, eso puede influir en el
problema de la integración de la familia por no poder disfrutar de un área social y en el
conflicto de la salud porque no se cuenta con un lugar donde caminar o recrearse.
Gom señaló que cuando una colonia no cuenta con área verde también se desvalorizan
las propiedades.
“En un lugar donde no hay área verde, el valor de las casas disminuye, pero, cuando sí
existe, el precio de la propiedad tiende a ser más alto tanto por el sentimiento de libertad
que genera en la comunidad y la limpieza de su aire”, concluyó.
