| Sumario: | In this paper we analyse the strategies of use and management of firewood
by the families in Pozuelos, a community of the municipality of Chamula,
located in the Altos de Chiapas. We also explain the factors that promote
or hinder the acceptance of alternative technologies that aim to reduce
the consumption of firewood among rural families and thus decrease the
female workload and increase the conservation of the woods. The analysis
is focussed on the times and workloads of bio-fuel supply as well as on the
complementarity of functions in the domestic nucleus for the collection
of the resource and on the factors that interfere with technology appropriation,
in this case wood-saving stoves. This work identifies the role of the
women as administrators of the forestal resources for energy purposes and
points out the factors that restrict the acceptance of technological changes
as sociocultural, economical, climatic and technical. |
