Video Overview

"This video made me feel proud to be Yucatecan."

— Dr. Juan Magaña, UADY professor

"Yucatan": Bienestar del Hombre en el Campo

This 9-min video-documentary was a student project in Dr. Elvira Sánchez course, Media Analysis and Production. Four families (and their communities) that participated in our rapid appraisal of farming systems with sheep are featured in this presentation. Four undergraduate women wrote the script and produced the documentary based on their eye-opening, first-ever, rural experiences in September and October 2004. This product resulted from novel collaboration between the Schools of Anthropology and Veterinary Medicine and Animal Science at the Universidad Autónoma de Yucatán (UADY), which was catalyzed by our TIES project.
