This article reports on an intervention project carried out with secondary school students with whom we worked to promote participatory processes. The project sought to give these students a voice and facilitate the collective construction of knowledge of their reality, involving them in identifying, ordering and prioritizing the problems and obstacles that affect them and prevent their development, so that they can later propose and implement alternative solutions in their community, thus promoting citizenship and resulting in democratic, autonomous and solidary processes. The project used the service-learning methodology, which provided the young people with tools that allowed them to rethink themselves as legal subjects. The project results show the importance of participation in the construction of youth citizenship.

The delinquency rate is the percentage of the total unproductive portfolio compared to the total gross portfolio. Which we can qualify as a risk that is caused by the delay in complying with the payment. The time of said delay generates an interest in default. This article analyzed the default risk index existing in the payment of simple microcredits in financial institutions. Determining that delinquencies are a risk present in the financial system, the increase in the delinquency index is a signal that warns of a possible financial crisis, therefore a significant increase in delinquencies must be strictly evaluated, which can cause a profitability problem and liquidity, would even translate into the generation of losses and deficits in provisions. In this sense, a savings and credit cooperative that is beginning to suffer deterioration in its loan portfolio may suffer its profitability by increasing the proportion of loans with unpaid interest. Keywords: Risk, default, simple microcredits, financial institutions.

Work conditions and environments are permanently modified, denoting changes that may induce the prevalence of risk factors associated with different factors in the work environment. In this sense, psychosocial risks constitute a constantly growing problem and banking institutions are not exempt from this trend. Therefore, the objective of this research is to analyze the psychosocial risks to which the bank workers of a cooperative in the city of Chone, Manabí Ecuador are exposed and thus determine which is the area with the highest level of psychosocial risk and identify which ones they are the main causes of stress in workers. An investigative instrument categorized into 9 items was used, according to the methodology proposed in the FPSICO 4.0 tool proposed by INSST-Spain, with a sample of 30 participants. It is concluded that, although the policies for the regulation and control of occupational risks set out the measures that must be adopted by the institutions according to the nature of their activities, nevertheless, an important sector of the organizations does not execute them and therefore, a perception of workers is presented that shows shortcomings in the care and prevention of working conditions. Keywords: Occupational risks, psychosocial, factors, workers, cooperatives.

The objective of this article is to identify the impact caused by rural migration to the Chone canton. For this purpose, a bibliographic review from 2000 to the present, of scientific publications and statistics of pages and certified organizations, was used. Population movements both inside and outside a country constitute one of the issues that has received the most attention in recent times, seeking the causes that these population movements generate and knowing the impacts they cause. In Latin America, migration was due to important differentials between the levels of per capita income of the countries, especially bordering ones. At the beginning of the 20th century, Ecuador became the first country in the Andean Region to emigrate to Europe and the United States. As countries move from predominantly rural societies to increasingly urban ones, urban rural migration increases, causing internal migration to far outweigh international migration. This internal migration in the Chone ridge has direct effects on urbanization processes and has been influenced by the mechanization of agriculture, the concentration and accumulation of rural property and the low dynamism of the traditional agricultural sector. Most of the population is concentrated in areas where there is availability of basic services, education and health infrastructure; preferably with proximity or with good accessibility. Keywords: Migration, rural, urban, impact, Chone.
