(Springer Netherlands, 2019) Amaya Ruiz, Jorge Alberto; García Vélez, Gabriela Elizabeth; Jara Avila, David Francisco
In recent decades, studying the link between the institutional sector and civil community has taken on a major importance. In this context, the university has been playing an important role on identifying needs and possible solutions through its creative and innovative capacities. Based on the study of the adobe productive sector in two rural areas of the province of “Azuay” (“Sinincay and Susudel”) Ecuador, the present research analyses the territorial contributions that the Faculty of Architecture and Urbanism of the University of Cuenca has been generating in this artisanal sector. The current situation of the sector is described and contrasted by a model of articulation between the actors involved in order to coordinate efforts in the creation of sectorial and territorial value. Besides, this model might contribute to create competitive strategies on the production of “adobe” and to strength one of the sectors which support the cultural heritage preservation in the Andean Region.

El aroma del barrio nos recuerda que el barro, la madera, la piedra y el carrizo son nuestros símbolos; nos recuerda que la lluvia, el frío, el viento y el sol han despertado nuestro ingenio; nos recuerda que la técnica, la estética y el bien común pueden alearse. La piedra de la calle angosta, la madera de la estructura, el barro de la teja nos enamoran, nos mantienen vivos porque son símbolos de lo propio. Como torres robustas, como centinelas, como vigías eternos los barrios amurallan la ciudad de Cuenca, cuidan sus tradiciones, forjan su futuro. Allí, en el barrio, está la gente que le ha dado identidad a la ciudad, que la ha hecho única, que la ha hecho mejor, que la ha renovado, que la ha mantenido; allí está gente común, gente con identidad, gente que sin darse cuenta ha forjado la ciudad que hoy tenemos. Por su generosidad, San Roque dejó de ser el pueblo de acceso a la ciudad, pasó a ser la parroquia de jardines hermosos; y, en la actualidad, un barrio querido, encantador, lleno de tradiciones, de casas lindas y colores vivos que se refresca con la brisa del Tomebamba, con el vigor de su gente y con esa extraña mezcla de lo nuevo con lo viejo. El Proyecto Ciudad Patrimonio Mundial de la Universidad de Cuenca no ha renovado casas, no ha utilizado técnicas, no ha aplicado metodologías, se ha preocupado por el valor de nuestra cultura, de nuestras costumbres, de nuestras tradiciones; se ha preocupado del barrio, del espacio de la gente que ha construido la ciudad; se ha preocupado por rescatar nuestros símbolos, nuestro patrimonio. Ha hecho todo esto con base en la técnica, en la metodología y con el corazón en sus manos, colocando al ser humano como su razón de ser. Nos encontramos frente a un proyecto con sensibilidad y responsabilidad, con libertad e ingenio, con tolerancia y apertura.
