    The health-disease situation of the population and health care delivery services are continuously monitored by epidemiological surveillance systems and health information systems, but since the first cases of COVID-19 appeared in December 2019 and spread globally, each country tried to control the virus by activating their own health protocols, but they became insufficient to face the pandemic and every control attempts seem impossible to all humanity, even more without the support of information technologies, which provides a rapid response for decision-making. Being that the reason why surveillance systems should help mitigate the spread of diseases and, at the same time, plan resources to protect the health status of citizens. Therefore, the aim of this article is to propose a model of a digital epidemiological surveillance 4.0, considering the current technological revolution and the constant evolution of the Internet. This model is divided into 4 phases: situational analysis, planning, execution and evaluation, and supported on 4 key components: logistic support, digital privacy and data protection, communication and technology, and disruptive innovation. A quantitative type of research was applied in a sample of 58 participants, all working as health staff in Chiclayo-Peru, to whom a data collection instrument, based on digital forms and interviews with medical epidemiologists, was applied, that information, which mainly considers the perception and perspectives of the epidemiological surveillance system, served as the basis for the proposed model.

    This systematic review analyzed a total of 109 scientific articles with the aim of identifying, organizing, and synthesizing academic output related to digital literacy, technology adoption in agricultural sectors, digital skills, and socioeconomic and cultural factors that influence the implementation of emerging technologies. Peer-reviewed academic publications available in open access and written in English were reviewed, complying with the PRISMA protocol guidelines. They came predominantly from Europe, Asia, and Latin America, which allowed for a global perspective. Quantitative, qualitative, and mixed approaches were applied, highlighting the use of surveys, interviews, and bibliometric analysis. Factors affecting the adoption of precision agriculture by smallholder farmers, challenges for the implementation of technologies in rural contexts, and sociocultural barriers to technological innovation were evaluated. The trend focuses on the need for sound public policies, continuous training strategies, technological accessibility, and contextualized approaches to ensure effective technology adoption. In conclusion, a broad and critical overview of the advances, limitations, and challenges surrounding digital literacy and technology adoption is provided as a basis for an in-depth debate on the digital transformation of contemporary agriculture.

    The transition to more sustainable and climate-resilient agriculture is an urgent challenge in agricultural regions of developing countries such as Lambayeque (Peru), especially in rice cultivation. In this context, digital literacy is emerging as a key enabler for accessing climate data, adopting precision agriculture technologies, and implementing sustainable agricultural practices. However, there are gaps linked to sociodemographic variables such as age, which can moderate these technology adoption processes. The objective of this study was to analyze the patterns of association between digital literacy, access to finance, risk perception, and the adoption of sustainable agricultural practices, and to examine whether age moderates the association between digital literacy and access to climate data. To this end, a quantitative, non-experimental approach was applied, using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM). The sample consisted of 101 rice farmers in the Lambayeque region, who were given a validated questionnaire that included five theoretical constructs measured using Likert scales. The results of the structural model confirmed that digital literacy has a positive and significant association with access to climate data (β = 0.461, p < 0.001) and with the adoption of sustainable agricultural practices (β = 0.259, p = 0.015). A positive association was identified between access to finance and risk perception (β = 0.411, p < 0.001). Age was negatively associated with digital literacy (β = −0.196; p = 0.027); however, the formal moderation test (DL × Age) was not significant (β = −0.054, p = 0.421), so there is no evidence that age moderates the association between digital skills and access to climate information. These findings support the design of differentiated interventions that incorporate intergenerational digital training, inclusive financing policies, and hybrid technology transfer strategies tailored to access gaps. Taken together, the evidence is consistent with the idea that reducing the digital divide can strengthen agricultural sustainability and climate resilience in rural contexts in Latin America.

    COVID-19 disease has started several levels of alert and biosafety protocols to mitigate the risk of contagion everywhere, therefore causing universities to adopt the virtual environments in their teachings, but nowadays it became a necessity to return to classrooms in a short term basis; however, how prepared are we for this “new normal”? In this research, a validated questionnaire was used to measure the knowledge of COVID-19 and preventive measures adopted by university students, before and after the use of an epidemiological surveillance mobile app, developed as a tool to raise awareness in students. The research was quantitative, quasi-experimental, it was applied in a sample of 82 students, the analysis was global and gender inferential using the non-parametric T test for paired samples. The results indicated that the epidemiological surveillance mobile app made possible to raise awareness in the students in the adoption of preventive measures, proposing awareness strategies that allow establishing alerts and timely controls. © 2020 Copyright for this paper by its authors.
