In beach and outdoor environments, theft of personal belongings remains a frequent concern due to the lack of surveillance and security systems. To address this problem, this project proposes the design and development of an automated umbrella with an anti-theft system, a smart solution aimed at improving security. The proposed umbrella integrates a set of technologies including two 180° surveillance cameras, a presence sensor, a vibration sensor, speakers, and a physical siren, all designed to detect and alert users to potential theft. Alerts are sent in real time via a mobile app, allowing users to monitor their belongings remotely. In addition, the umbrella is equipped with USB ports for charging electronic devices, powered by a built-in battery and magnetized solar panels. This system not only improves security, but also promotes the use of smart technology in everyday outdoor experiences. Preliminary tests indicate a high level of interest from users and a positive reception of the concept as an effective response to theft-related issues in public environments.

Nowadays, many processes within educational institutions still rely on manual methods that can lead to inefficiencies and operational delays. One of these challenges is related to classroom access management, where traditional systems based on physical keys are still in use. At educational institutions of Peru, faculty members must manually request keys from administrative staff to access classrooms, which often results in delays, loss of keys, and inefficiencies in classroom usage. To address this situation, this research proposes the design and implementation of an access control system based on Near Field Communication (NFC) technology. This system allows professors to gain quick and secure access to classrooms using NFC-enabled devices, thereby reducing their reliance on physical keys and optimizing access procedures. The proposed system is intended to integrate with the university’s current infrastructure, improving efficiency, enhancing security, and promoting the adoption of modern technology in administrative processes, obtaining 95% of acceptance and a good approval to address the proposed problems.

Women’s entrepreneurship is increasingly linked to the 2030 Agenda; however, primary empirical evidence remains scarce in Latin American settings. This study aimed to describe women-led entrepreneurship with a sustainable development approach using survey data from 200 women entrepreneurs in Lambayeque, Peru. A quantitative, non-experimental, cross-sectional design with a descriptive–analytic scope was applied. The instrument comprised 50 items (30 categorical and 20 Likert-type) organized into five dimensions: support structure, knowledge, operational security, financial support, and social support. Findings depict a predominantly young entrepreneurial profile, strong reliance on personal savings, limited recent training, and a pronounced disconnection from public and university support programs. Likert results show higher scores for knowledge and financial support, while social support was notably weaker, suggesting a gap between individual agency and the surrounding support environment. The study provides a concise diagnostic baseline to inform evidence-based initiatives aimed at strengthening sustainable women’s entrepreneurship ecosystems in regional economies.

Abstract

Environmental education has become a strategic pillar for addressing climate change challenges and advancing sustainable development; however, empirical gaps persist in the systematic characterization of its approaches, dimensions, and implementation patterns, particularly in developing contexts. This study aims to describe the characteristics of scientific production on environmental education related to climate change and sustainable development through a descriptive diagnostic analysis. A qualitative approach was adopted, combining bibliometric techniques and content analysis applied to a corpus of 500 documents indexed in Scopus, retrieved using a structured search equation. The results reveal significant thematic fragmentation, with a predominance of studies focused on climate change, knowledge, and awareness, alongside a low level of integrated convergence between environmental education, climate change, and sustainable development. Methodologically, survey-based and cross-sectional designs dominate, while mixed and longitudinal methods remain marginal. In addition, environmental and public health dimensions are overrepresented compared to social, equity, and governance components. From a geographical perspective, scientific production is concentrated in Europe, North America, and Asia, whereas Latin America and Africa show limited representation. The study concludes that environmental education for climate change and sustainability has achieved notable progress in awareness-building, yet continues to face structural gaps in formal training, interdisciplinary integration, and context-sensitive evidence generation. These findings provide a valuable diagnostic baseline to inform future research agendas and support the design of education policies aligned with the Sustainable Development Goals.

Today, many tasks that were previously carried out by workers in different companies have begun to be automated, especially in the field of security, among other areas. In this context, the following study presents the design and implementation of a cooperative cleaning system based on an autonomous robot, whose objective is to support cleaning staff in various higher education institutions. This system is designed to work in collaboration with cleaning staff in various institutional spaces, promoting effective interaction between the human operator and the machine. The user survey revealed a high level of acceptance of these systems, despite the lack of prior contact or in-depth knowledge. The modular design of the system, which includes components such as Raspberry Pi 3, ESP32, various sensors, and webcams, allows it to be adapted to commercial robots and facilitates human-computer interaction to optimize cleaning tasks. The usability evaluation presents a score of 74.7 out of 100, validating its good acceptance and positive user experience, positioning it as a viable solution that contributes to the technological advancement of the region without displacing personnel, but rather improving their efficiency.

The present invention relates to a portable security system designed for the real,time monitoring of vulnerable individuals, such as children, the elderly, or people with medical conditions. The system comprises a compact GPS device and a protective charging case. The device features a polycarbonate casing and components including a high,precision GPS module, a SIM module for mobile connectivity, a noise canceling microphone, a humidity sensor, and a rechargeable battery. A magnetic fastening system allows it to be securely attached to the user's clothing. Operating via mobile networks, the system connects to a mobile application that enables caregivers to track location, receive alerts, and monitor safety in real time. Its modular, durable, and autonomous design represents a practical and secure solution for both urban and rural environments.
