Efciency in the use of water resources is one of the SDG 6 in all sectors. This research focuses on the efcient use of water
in households. Specifcally, we analyse diferences in people’s behaviour towards ten household water uses. Compared to
previous research, the main contribution of this study is the emphasis placed on the gender perspective. This research is
carried out for Andalusia, a region in southern Spain with high water stress. OLS and probit estimations were made with a
database of 2650 observations from 2018. No gender diferences are found in the number of habits applied to make efcient
use of water in the household. On the other hand, after studying ten household water uses in isolation, gender diferences are
found in certain pro-environmental habits. We cannot conclude the existence of a gender gap in environmental awareness of
water use. However, the results suggest that there are diferences in the adoption of pro-environmental habits in water use
due to the distribution in the household chores, especially in those which are traditionally female or male.

Students' Knowledge of Healthy Food and Their Actual Eating Habits: A Case Study on the University of Granada (Spain)Entrena Durán, Franciscohttps://hdl.handle.net/10481/700202021-09-01T07:35:07ZStudents' Knowledge of Healthy Food and Their Actual Eating Habits: A Case Study on the University of Granada (Spain)

This article focuses on an analysis of the discourses produced during 34 semi-structured
interviews (17 men and 17 women) conducted at the University of Granada (Spain)
with undergraduate, Master, and Ph.D. students. The interviewees were between 20
and 44 years old. It was observed that the fact of having a high educational level did
not prevent University students from eating unhealthily. There is a gap between the fact
that 97.1% of 34 students interviewed (that is, 33 of them) know what healthy food is
and their self-perception about whether or not what they are eating is healthy, since in
41.2% of them said self-perception is negative. This gap narrows as the interviewees’
age increases and their socio-economic and vital situation is stabilizing which favors that
their eating habits become more regular and healthier. Thus, all the interviewees aged
27 or over self-perceived that they were eating healthily. But the biggest differences are
those that have to do with the gender of interviewees. Thus, while 23.5% of women
interviewed perceived that they were not eating healthy, 76.5% of them felt that they were
eating healthy. However, among the men interviewed, these percentages were somehow
reversed, in such a way that 58.8% of them believed that they were not eating healthy,
compared to 41.2% of them who indicated that they were eating healthy. Therefore, the
investigation revealed that women tend to have the best chances of assuming healthy
eating habits. Male students living outside the family home or without female partners
exhibited greater feeding problems, while females living under similar conditions tended
to display healthier eating habits. This is related to the fact that women have traditionally
been in charge of acquiring and preparing food. So, women’s food education has not
been restricted to the mere transmission to them of knowledge about what healthy food
is, but from their childhood they were food trained through their active involvement
in practical experiences. Obviously, the solution proposed to this male disadvantage
is to not perpetuate macho gender stereotypes that assign women the role of home
caregivers, but to seek that both women and men have the opportunity and the duty to
experience equally those practical experiences that involve the tasks of the acquisition
and preparation of food. Working to achieve a situation like this, not only promotes
progress in gender equality, but also helps to overcome the lower training of men to
perform the tasks inherent in their diet.

Este artículo examina las actitudes hacia la inmigración en España a través del análisis de los datos más recientes de la Encuesta Social Europea (2014). El principal objetivo de este estudio será evaluar cómo los españoles se muestran frente a la inmigración, analizando cuáles son las amenazas que perciben, qué fuerza tienen y cómo ante estas modulan su respuesta. En base a esto, se diseñó un modelo Logit de respuesta discreta para determinar qué factores relacionados con las amenazas económico- materiales y simbólicas eran desencadenantes de un comportamiento reacio y una actitud negativa hacia la inmigración entre los españoles.

Spain is a constitutional monarchy with a national government and a king, however power largely rests with the 17 autonomous communities, each with executive and judicial powers, and their own parliaments, assembled from 50 provinces which also have their own devolved powers. This contribution briefly summarizes the central aspects of Spain’s response towards the COVID-19 pandemic crisis, examining the main measures proposed by the Government of Spain to mitigate the effects of the crisis. It highlights the increasing political polarization that has taken place within Spain as a result of COVID-19.; España es una monarquía constitucional con un gobierno nacional y un rey, sin embargo, el poder recae en gran medida en las 17 comunidades autónomas, cada una con poderes ejecutivo y judicial, y sus propios parlamentos, reunidos en 50 provincias que también tienen sus propios poderes delegados. Esta contribución resume brevemente los aspectos centrales de la respuesta de España a la crisis pandémica del COVID-19, examinando las principales medidas propuestas por el Gobierno de España para paliar los efectos de la crisis.
