Title = {Coupled Relationship between Rural Livelihoods and the Environment at a
Village Scale: A Case Study in the Mongolian Plateau},
Journal = {LAND},
Year = {2020},
Volume = {9},
Number = {2},
Month = {FEB},
Abstract = {Rural livelihoods, which are basic human activities, have long
interacted with the environment. In light of the complexity of the
human-environment system, more interdisciplinary analyses from
geographical, environmental, and social sciences are needed. Using
qualitative and quantitative methods from social, environmental, and
geographical sciences, this study conducted a geographical
regionalization and a comparative analysis of rural livelihoods in
different zones in the Loess Plateau to explore the relationship between
rural livelihoods and the environment. The results indicated that rural
livelihoods are tightly coupled with the environment on a village scale,
showing significant geographical regularity and spatial disparity. A
combination of geographical location, resource endowment, and
environmental sanitation affects rural livelihoods in terms of spatial
patterns, development capacity, and quality of life in the context of
the public ownership system, the utilization policy of land resources,
and limited technical conditions. Coupling the relationship between
rural livelihoods and a given environment on a village scale tends to
lead to one of four types of relationships: ``homeostatic{''},
``intense{''}, ``transferred{''}, or ``optimized{''}. Accordingly,
governments and policymakers need to consider that countryside
revitalization must be locally tailored and implemented through the four
aspects of ``rights revitalization{''}, ``labor revitalization{''},
``industrial revitalization{''}, and ``environmental revitalization{''}.},

Year = {2015},
Volume = {47},
Number = {3},
Pages = {221-229},
Month = {MAY 27},
Abstract = {We intended to determine (1) whether stress from employment
disadvantages led to increased frequency of heavy drinking and (2)
whether race had a role in the relationship between such disadvantages
and heavy drinking. Study data came from the National Longitudinal
Survey of Youth, a prospective study that has followed a representative
sample of youth since 1979. Our study employed data from 11 particular
years, during which the survey included items measuring respondents'
heavy drinking. Our final sample numbered 10,171 respondents, which
generated 75,394 person-waves for data analysis. Both of our hypotheses
were supported by results from multilevel mixed-effects linear
regression capturing the time-varying nature of three employment
disadvantages and of the heavy-drinking outcome. Results show that
more-frequent heavy drinking was associated with employment
disadvantages, and that disadvantages' effects on drinking were stronger
for Blacks and Hispanics than for Whites. That worsening employment
disadvantages have worse effects on minority groups' heavy drinking
(compared to Whites) probably contributes to the racial health
disparities in our nation. Policies and programs addressing such
disparities are especially important during economic downturns.},

Title = {<i>Water with larvae</i>: Hydrological fertility, inequality, and
mosquito urbanism},
Journal = {ENVIRONMENT AND PLANNING E-NATURE AND SPACE},
Year = {2022},
Month = {2022 MAY 17},
Abstract = {Aedes aegypti, the primary vector for dengue, chikungunya and zika,
breeds mainly in stored/stagnant water and thrives in contexts of rapid
urbanization in tropical countries. Some have warned that climate
change, in conjunction with urbanization, could drive the proliferation
of Aedes aegypti mosquitoes. In Colombia dengue has been endemic since
the 1990s and the country had the highest number of cases of zika virus
in the world after Brazil. Studies have found that domestic stored water
contributes to high percentages of the total Ae. aegypti pupal
population in Colombian urban sectors. In particular, neighborhoods
where water service provision is intermittent are vulnerable to
mosquito-borne diseases as water is stored inside households. This
article draws on archival work, interviews, and entomological literature
to reflect on the ways in which rapid urbanization in the context of
armed conflict, infrastructural inequality, the absence of formal jobs,
and specific water laws and regulations produce water and Aedes aegypti
in the city. It offers an initial attempt to theorize water with larvae
by focusing on two interrelated processes. First, the historical and
geographic processes that underlie the production of stored water, which
despite being treated can become a place of fertility where mosquitoes
can flourish. Secondly, the processes by which water, mosquitoes,
pathogens, and human bodies become interrelated. This entails thinking
about some homes in Barranquilla as socioecological assemblages that are
dynamically produced, socially and materially.},

Title = {Masculinity and the Stalled Revolution: How Gender Ideologies and Norms
Shape Young Men's Responses to Work-Family Policies},
Journal = {GENDER \& SOCIETY},
Year = {2016},
Volume = {30},
Number = {4},
Pages = {590-617},
Month = {AUG},
Abstract = {Extant research suggests that supportive work-family policies promote
gender equality in the workplace and in the household. Yet, evidence
indicates that these policies generally have stronger effects on women's
preferences and behaviors than men's. In this article, we draw on
survey-experimental data to examine how young, unmarried men's gender
ideologies and perceptions of normative masculinity may moderate the
effect of supportive work-family policy interventions on their
preferences for structuring their future work and family life.
Specifically, we examine whether men's prescriptive beliefs about what
work-family arrangements most people ought to prefer and whether men's
descriptive beliefs about what work-family arrangements most of their
male peers actually do prefer influence their responses to supportive
policies. Our analysis shows that men's responses to supportive
work-family policy interventions are highly dependent upon their beliefs
about what their male peers actually want, rather than on their beliefs
about what others should want. Specifically, men who believe that their
male peers ideally want gender-egalitarian or counternormative
relationships are themselves more likely to prefer a progressive
relationship structure when supportive work-family policies are in
place. These findings provide novel support for sociological theories of
masculinity and hold important implications for designing policies that
promote gender equality in the workplace and at home.},

Abstract = {Trafficking of adults and children for both sex and labor is a human
rights violation occurring with alarming frequency throughout the world,
and resulting in profound harm to close-knit communities and severe
health consequences for victims. Certain areas, such as the country of
Paraguay, are at a higher risk for trafficking due to unique economic,
cultural, and geographic factors. Thousands of people, especially
children, are trafficked within Paraguay's borders, and many eventually
are transported to neighboring countries and sometimes to Europe and
elsewhere. Using case study methodology and ``city{''} as the unit of
study, researchers interviewed 18 key anti-trafficking stakeholders from
government and nongovernmental organizations in two major metropolitan
centers for trafficking in Paraguay, Asuncion, and Encarnacion. Through
semistructured interviews, this qualitative study examines risk factors
for trafficking, health outcomes, interventions needed within the health
care sector, and programs needed to combat trafficking. We identified
risk factors including poverty, marginalization of indigenous people,
gender inequality, domestic servitude of children (criadazgo), and
political hesitance to enact protective legislation. Victims of
trafficking were reported to suffer from physical injuries, unintended
pregnancies, sexually transmitted infections, and mental health issues
such as depression and posttraumatic stress disorder. These predispose
victims to difficulties reintegrating into their communities and
ultimately to retrafficking. A major gap was identified in the lack of
sufficient lodging and rehabilitation services for rescued victims,
affordable access to trauma-sensitive health care for victims, and
scarce mental health services. Many of the findings are applicable
across the world and may be of use to guide future anti-trafficking
efforts in Paraguay and beyond.},

Abstract = {This paper estimates the causal effect of income on health outcomes of

pension income by applying a fixed-effect model with instrumental
variable correction. The results reveal that pension enrollment and
income from the NRPS both have had a significant beneficial impact on
objective measures of physical health and cognitive function of the
rural elderly. Pension recipients respond to the newly acquired pension
income in multiple ways: improved nutrition intake, better accessibility
to health care, increased informal care, increased leisure activities,
and better self-perceived relative economic situation. These in turn act
as channels from pension income to health outcomes of the Chinese rural
elderly. Institute for Advanced Research, Shanghai University of Finance

Title = {Children's exposure to paternal imprisonment: Incidence, evolution, and
correlates among young nonmarital children},
Journal = {CHILDREN AND YOUTH SERVICES REVIEW},
Year = {2011},
Volume = {33},
Number = {5},
Pages = {575-587},
Month = {MAY},
Abstract = {Although the well-being of nonmarital children has been the focus of
recent public policy developments and academic research, relatively
little is known about the risk of paternal imprisonment among these
children. Particularly in a context of declining public assistance, the
unprecedented imprisonment rate may place additional stress on
nonmarital children if a substantial portion of their fathers are
incarcerated and therefore unable to provide support. Research on this
topic has been impeded by methodological difficulties, such as the lack
of representative data on nonmarital children's fathers, and inaccurate
or insufficient information on fathers' incarceration. Using unique
combined administrative data sets from Wisconsin that largely overcome
these methodological obstacles, I provide improved estimates of paternal
imprisonment risk among young nonmarital children. I distinguish between
point-in-time and cumulative risks and assess the length of paternal
imprisonment, first considering only biological fathers and then also
including the mothers' other partners. I also estimate the risks
separately by socioeconomic and demographic characteristics. Results
suggest that nonmarital children face a high risk of paternal
imprisonment, a substantial proportion also face an elevated risk of
lengthy paternal imprisonment, and the racial disparity in risk is
significant. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.},

Journal = {AMERICAN JOURNAL OF INDUSTRIAL MEDICINE},
Year = {2014},
Volume = {57},
Number = {5, SI},
Pages = {495-515},
Month = {MAY},
Abstract = {Background
Changes in employment conditions in the global economy over the past 30
years have led to increased job insecurity and other work organization
hazards. These hazards may play a role in creating and sustaining
occupational health disparities by socioeconomic position, gender, race,
ethnicity, and immigration status.
Methods
A conceptual model was developed to guide the review of 103 relevant
articles or chapters on the role of work organization and occupational
health disparities identified through a comprehensive search conducted
by NIOSH. A second review was conducted of employment and workplace
policies and programs designed to reduce the health and safety risks due
to job insecurity and other work organization hazards.
Results
There is consistent evidence that workers in lower socioeconomic or
social class positions are exposed to greater job insecurity and other
work organization hazards than workers in higher socioeconomic
positions. Likewise, racial and ethnic minorities and immigrants are
exposed to greater job insecurity. Limited research examining the
effects of interventions targeting work organization hazards on
disparities has been conducted; nonetheless, intervention strategies are
available and evidence suggests they are effective.
Conclusions
Job insecurity and work organization hazards play a role in creating and
sustaining occupational health disparities. Employment and workplace
policies and programs have the potential to reduce these hazards, and to
reduce disparities. Am. J. Ind. Med. 57:495-515, 2014. (c) 2012 Wiley

Title = {Long-Term Care and Gender Equality: Fuzzy-Set Ideal Types of Care
Regimes in Europe},
Journal = {SOCIAL INCLUSION},
Year = {2020},
Volume = {8},
Number = {4},
Pages = {92-102},
Abstract = {Recent changes in the organization of long-term care have had
controversial effects on gender inequality in Europe. In response to the
challenges of ageing populations, almost all countries have adopted
reform measures to secure the increasing resource needs for care, to
ensure care services by different providers, to regulate the quality of
services, and overall to recalibrate the work-life balance for men and
women. These reforms are embedded in different family ideals of
intergenerational ties and dependencies, divisions of responsibilities
between state, market, family, and community actors, and backed by wider
societal support to families to care for their elderly and disabled
members. This article disentangles the different components of the
notion of `(de)familialization' which has become a crucial concept of
care scholarship. We use a fuzzy-set ideal type analysis to investigate
care policies and work-family reconciliation policies shaping long-term
care regimes. We are making steps to reveal aggregate gender equality
impacts of intermingling policy dynamics and also to relate the analysis
to migrant care work effects. The results are explained in a
four-pronged ideal type scheme to which European countries belong. While
only Nordic and some West European continental countries are close to
the double earner, supported carer ideal type, positive outliers prove
that transformative gender relations in care can be construed not only
in the richest and most generous welfare countries in Europe.},

Abstract = {Gender wage inequality is a chronic socioeconomic malice in developed as
well as in developing countries. This paper describes the outcomes of
our study on the estimation of gender wage gap in the Indian labour
market, using the 68th Round NSSO employment-unemployment data. The
study uses Blinder-Oaxaca decomposition technique and Heckman two-step
methodology, for removal of selectivity bias in the sample data, to
measure the components of total gender wage gap, viz. (1) occupational
segregation (explained by economic rationale) and (2) direct
discrimination (not explained by economic rationale). The analysis
indicates that the maximum direct discrimination is for job-related
factors, such as industry type which are controlled by employers. The
majority of the Indian employers today are men, which may be the reason
for the insensitivity to the chronic direct discrimination against women
in workplaces. The study also indicates that most of the explained
gender wage gap is due to lower skill and experience amongst women. The
findings suggest that besides labour law reforms for ensuring gender
neutrality in workplaces, focused government policies for promoting
women entrepreneurship and skill development of women are urgently
required for reducing the gender wage gap in India.},

Abstract = {The need to create new jobs to respond to growing demand in the context
of global economic development is changing the world of work. The labor
market is increasingly characterized by flexible, atypical forms of
labor organization. In the context of conventional definitions of
standard workplace and working time, established in the work practice of
the 20th century, we analyze forms of work that can still be considered
atypical organization of work given its representation in the total
employed population. Much emphasis in previous research on the
organization of work and working time has been placed on social
acceptability from the perspective of the organization of work and
private (family) life. Research on this issue in Croatia is scarce and
this paper is therefore of an exploratory nature. The research is based
on the Labor Force Survey at the individual level (microdata). Data from
the Labor Force Survey allow us to research some of the forms of work
and working hours, primarily weekend work, night work and work from
home. The aim of this paper is to explore the demographic
characteristics of respondents who participate in any of these work
schemes and schedules. The main findings of the paper are: Employees who
always work on Sundays are dominated by workers over the age of 40, with
a relatively higher proportion of women; part-time work in Croatia is
poorly represented among employees; the presence of part time work among
employees is the result of a lack of full time jobs rather than the
flexibility of employers; significantly higher prevalence of night work
in men, which increases with age. The paper indicated some

Abstract = {Stroke is a significant cause of death that requires multiple systems of
care to work together to prevent incidence and improve patient outcomes.
The Wisconsin Coverdell Stroke Program partnered with a Model Hospital
to understand and improve the stroke system of care in one community.
Developmental evaluation (DE) is an approach in which evaluators
collaborate closely with project stakeholders to examine complex
processes and systems within changeable contexts to develop
interventions to improve outcomes. DE was used to assess this
community's stroke systems across the care continuum through process
mapping with Model Hospital staff and through key stakeholder interviews
with Model Hospital and emergency medical services staff, patients, and
caregivers. Process mapping identified how patients and health care data
flow through the system of care and highlighted areas where streamlining
could improve the movement of patients and data across the care
continuum. Interviews with stakeholders unveiled challenges and
successes about how patient data are accessed and shared across the care
continuum, and ideas for improving systems to be more efficient and
supportive of stroke prevention and patient outcomes. Overall, DE was
valuable in gaining an in-depth understanding of this complex
environment to develop strategies to enhance stroke systems of care.},

Title = {Educational returns beyond the mean: Differences along wage
distributions of men and women in India's formal labor market},
Journal = {INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF EDUCATIONAL DEVELOPMENT},
Year = {2014},
Volume = {36},
Pages = {22-32},
Month = {MAY},
Abstract = {Unlike previous studies on educational returns in developing countries,
this paper examines the distributional impacts of education on wages
using a recently developed econometric approach unconditional quantile
regressions. The results yield unconditional impacts of education at
different points of the wage distribution and, therefore, are more
informative from a policy perspective than both traditional regression
and quantile regression methods commonly used for estimating educational
returns. We use a nationally representative dataset on labor markets in
India, collected in 2005-2006. The results reveal significant
heterogeneity in education's effects along the wage distribution and
striking differences in these patterns by gender: the effect of primary
education is found to be significantly higher for women than men in the
middle of the wage distribution; while the effect of post primary
education exhibits a distinct pattern whereby women get significantly
higher rewards than men above the median and significantly lower rewards
than men below the median. These findings have direct implications for
the targeting of education policies that seek to reduce gender wage
inequality. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.},

outcomes for individuals with disabilities},
Journal = {JOURNAL OF VOCATIONAL REHABILITATION},
Year = {2023},
Volume = {59},
Number = {1},
Pages = {7-24},
Abstract = {BACKGROUND: Self-employment is a flexible alternative to traditional
workforce positions. Individuals with disabilities are self-employed at
higher rates than individuals without disabilities, mainly because
self-employment circumnavigates many of the commonly experienced
barriers individuals with disabilities face when pursuing more typical
employment situations. Still, little is known about factors that impact
successful self-employment outcomes.
OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to identify factors that
facilitate or hinder self-employment outcomes for individuals with
cognitive and physical disabilities.
METHOD: A scoping review of the empirical literature was conducted to
examine individual/system level, programmatic, and key themes within
lived experiences that affect self-employment outcomes.
RESULTS: A total of 40 articles were included in the final sample
representing both national and international research efforts. Findings
indicated that a multitude of factors affect self-employment outcomes
including demographics (e.g., gender, race, age, disability), social
network, financial standing and work history, personal motivation,
interagency collaboration, services provided (e.g., business plan
development and mentorship), and barriers (e.g., lack of training and
services).
CONCLUSION: There are a number of known variables that promote
self-employment outcomes. Implications for future research, policy and
practice are discussed.},

Gorges Dam, China},
Journal = {WORLD DEVELOPMENT},
Year = {2016},
Volume = {84},
Pages = {41-54},
Month = {AUG},
Abstract = {In 2015 the construction of the Three Gorges Dam in China was completed.
For more than two decades, the 1.13 million people it displaced have
been rebuilding their livelihoods. To assist, the Chinese government
used policy and incentives to stimulate the local economy. Whether the
resettlers benefited from such initiatives is not yet understood. This
paper offers the first longitudinal analysis of the resettlers'
livelihoods. The study follows up with 521 households that participated
in a survey in 2003. The initial survey, conducted within five years of
their displacement, found that despite improvements to infrastructure
and housing, incomes generally declined, livelihoods were dismantled,
and permanent employment was replaced by more temporary employment.
Resettlers were struggling to meet even their basic needs. However,
eight years on from the original survey, this study finds the gains to
be substantial. Within the sample groups, income inequality has
declined, food is more secure and wellbeing is improved on 2003 levels.
What is more, incomes have generally grown and are positively correlated
to employment in an enterprise. It appears that the Chinese government's
resolve to stimulate the regional economy and to turn the crank on
enterprise investment has paid off in this region of the Three Gorges
Dam. (c) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.},

Abstract = {ASCO strives, through research, education, and promotion of the highest
quality of patient care, to create a world where cancer is prevented and
every survivor is healthy. In this pursuit, cancer health equity remains
the guiding institutional principle that applies to all its activities

differences in cancer outcomes in its original policy statement on
cancer disparities. Over the past decade, despite novel diagnostics and
therapeutics, together with changes in the cancer care delivery system
such as passage of the Affordable Care Act, cancer disparities persist.
Our understanding of the populations experiencing disparate outcomes has
likewise expanded to include the intersections of race/ethnicity,
geography, sexual orientation and gender identity, sociodemographic
factors, and others. This updated statement is intended to guide ASCO's
future activities and strategies to achieve its mission of conquering
cancer for all populations. ASCO acknowledges that much work remains to
be done, by all cancer stakeholders at the systems level, to overcome
historical momentum and existing social structures responsible for
disparate cancer outcomes. This updated statement affirms ASCO's
commitment to moving beyond descriptions of differences in cancer
outcomes toward achievement of cancer health equity, with a focus on
improving equitable access to care, improving clinical research,
addressing structural barriers, and increasing awareness that results in

Abstract = {Issue addressed Numerous resources exist to support workplaces to
undertake gender equality work; however, it is often unclear which
existing resources are being utilised by Australian workplaces. One
group that can provide insight into the use of existing resources is the
professionals who have undertaken gender equality work in their
organisation. Methods Purposive sampling was used to identify informants
with experience undertaking gender equality work. A sample of 12
informants was recruited from five employment sectors: five informants
from the women('s health sector; two from other organisations in the
health sector; three from local government; and one each from
manufacturing and education. One in-depth semi-structured interview was
conducted with each informant. Interview transcripts were analysed using
thematic analysis. Results Four themes emerged from data analysis:
``Organisational Context,{''} ``Legitimising Gender Equality Work,{''}
``Demystifying Gender Equality{''} and ``Embedding Gender Equality into
the Workplace.{''} Mechanisms such as drawing on the evidence base,
developing internal communications strategies, establishing a working
group, undertaking training, conducting an audit, and reviewing policies
and procedures were used to embed gender-based considerations into the
workplace. A range of resources to underpin most of these approaches was
discussed by informants. Conclusions Informants had a sound
understanding of approaches they could use to address existing gender
inequality; however, they did not always utilise existing resources to
support them to undertake their chosen approach. So what? A clearer
online database needs to be established to allow workplaces to access a
compilation of existing resources and any evaluation on their use.},

Title = {Supporting Academic Women's Careers: Male and Female Academics'
Perspectives at a Chinese Research University},
Journal = {MINERVA},
Year = {2023},
Month = {2023 AUG 9},
Abstract = {The persistent gender inequalities in higher education are an ongoing
concern among academics. This paper investigates how male and female
academics perceive the need for gender-related changes to support
academic women's career advancement in China. Drawing on 40 interviews
with male and female academics at a leading Chinese research university,
this paper finds that attitudes among male academics were overwhelmingly
negative toward the necessity for gender-related changes, whereas the
female academics' responses varied. Two underlying issues cause the
relatively similar degrees of unwillingness of men and women to make
gender-related policy changes at universities. First, these academics
had a strong belief in merit-based rules for promotion, which embedded
gender blindness in the name of `fairness'. Second, the power of
individual choice was the determining factor for women's career
progression, although both men and women acknowledged that their
traditional cultural beliefs were rooted in processes and practices that
systematically disadvantaged women. The findings expose academics' low
expectations for the successful creation or implementation of
institutional policies that support academic women's career development,
considering that male academics did not support gender-related changes,
and female academics were not united in their perspectives. In addition,
socio-cultural norms were a critical obstacle. The findings suggest that
the successful implementation of any gender policies must meet two
conditions: they should stress equal opportunities for both sexes and
should not jeopardize the perceived `fair' meritocracy in academia.},

Abstract = {The extant literature views the decision to protect women's economic
rights as made by firms and neglects the role of the state. This study
argues that states are pressured to improve the protection of these
rights by enacting gender parity-promoting policies in response to
similar policy choices by their economic competitors, resulting in a
specific type of policy interdependence-the upward policy convergence.
Additionally, this convergence should be stronger in laws than in
practices because some states continue to benefit from women-suppressing
policies, and because improving laws is less costly than improving
policy implementation. Using newly coded global data from 1999 to 2009
on women's economic rights that distinguish between laws and practices,
spatial econometrical analyses support these conjectures. Essentially,
this study shows that the race to the bottom is not the sole consequence
of globalization, a climb to the top is possible as well when we look
closer and more carefully. In other words, trade and capital dependence
can generate positive policy gains too.},

Abstract = {Introduction: Integrating behavioral health (BH) and primary care is an
important strategy to improve health behaviors, mental health, and
substance misuse, particularly at community health centers (CHCs) where
disease burden is high and access to mental health services is low.
Components of different integrated BH models are often combined in
practice. It is unknown which components distinguish developing versus
established integrated BH programs. Method: A survey was mailed to 128
CHCs in 10 Midwestern states in 2016. Generalized estimating equation
models were used to assess associations between program characteristics
and stage of integration implementation (precontemplation,
contemplation, preparation, action, or maintenance). Content analysis of
open-ended responses identified integration barriers. Results: Response
rate was 60\% (N = 77). Most CHCs had colocated BH and primary care
services, warm hand-offs from primary care to BH clinicians, shared
scheduling and electronic health record (EHR) systems, and depression
and substance use disorder screening. Thirty-two CHCs (42\%) indicated
they had completed integration and were focused on quality improvement
(maintenance). Being in the maintenance stage was associated with having
a psychologist on staff (odds ratio {[}OR] = 7.16, 95\% confidence
interval {[}CI] {[}2.76, 18.55]), a system for tracking referrals (OR =
3.42, 95\% CI {[}1.03, 11.36]), a registry (OR = 2.71, 95\% CI {[}1.86,
3.94]), PCMH designation (OR = 2.82, 95\% CI {[}1.48, 5.37]), and a
lower proportion of Black/African American patients (OR = .82, 95\% CI
{[}.75, .89]). The most common barriers to integration were difficulty
recruiting and retaining BH clinicians and inadequate reimbursement.
Discussion: CHCs have implemented many foundational components of
integrated BH. Future work should address barriers to integration and
racial disparities in access to integrated BH.
Public Significance Statement Community health centers have implemented
many aspects of integrated behavioral health, including colocated
behavioral health and primary care services, shared scheduling and
electronic health record (EHR) systems, warm hand-offs from primary care
to behavioral health clinicians, brief interventions and short-term
therapy, and systematic screening for depression and substance use
disorder. Major barriers to integration reported by health centers are
recruiting and retaining behavioral health clinicians and inadequate
reimbursement.},

Pages = {209-218},
Abstract = {Introduction. Maternal care is affected by socioeconomic factors. This
study analyses the effect of maternal education, employment and
citizenship on some antenatal and postnatal care indicators in Italy.
Methods. Data are from two population-based follow-up surveys conducted
to evaluate the quality of maternal care in 25 Italian Local Health
Units in 2008/9 and 2010/1 (6942 women). Logistic models were applied
and interactions among independent variables were explored.
Results. Education and employment status affect antenatal and postnatal
care indicators and migrant women are less likely to make use of health
opportunities. Low education status exacerbates the initial social
disadvantage of migrants. Migrant women are also more affected by
socioeconomic pressure to restart working early, with negative impact on
postnatal care.
Conclusion. Interventions focusing on women's empowerment may tackle
inequalities in maternal care for those women, Italians or migrants, who
have a worse initial maternal health literacy due to their lower
socioeconomic conditions.},

Abstract = {Sexual and reproductive health interventions in sub-Saharan Africa will
be most effective if grounded in emic (insider) perspectives of gender
and power in intimate relationships. We conducted eight focus group
discussions with 62 young adults in Malawi to explore conceptions of
gender and power relations and areas of tension between different
perspectives. We framed our enquiry according to the three social
structures of the Theory of Gender and Power: the sexual division of
labour, the sexual division of power, and social norms and affective
attachments around femininity and masculinity. Young adults drew on
interrelated and competing narratives to describe the state of gender
relations, which we named tradition, unity, and rights. Participants
used tradition narratives most frequently to describe patriarchal gender
roles, norms and ideals. Some participants challenged this predominant
discourse using unity and rights narratives. Unity narratives
illustrated how love and couple reciprocity were essential sources of
?power with? as opposed to ?power over?. Rights narratives were more
contested than other narratives, with some participants acknowledging
that women?s rights were important to the family?s survival and others
viewing women?s rights as problematic for gender relations.
Gender-responsive interventions should consider the tensions and
intersections between multiple narratives on gender and power, including
unity as a gender-equitable form of power.},

Abstract = {Background: The presence of workplace bias around child-rearing and
inadequate parental leave may negatively impact childbearing decisions
and sex equity in hepatology. This study aimed to understand the
influence of parental leave and child-rearing on career advancement in
hepatology.Methods: A cross-sectional survey of physician members of the
American Association for the Study of Liver Diseases (AASLD) was
distributed through email listserv in January 2021. The 33-item survey
included demographic questions, questions about bias, altering training,
career plans, family planning, parental leave, and work
accommodations.Results: Among 199 US physician respondents, 65.3\% were
women, and 83.4\% (n = 166) were attendings. Sex and racial differences
were reported in several domains, including paid leave, perceptions of
bias, and child-rearing. Most women (79.3\%) took fewer than the
recommended 12 paid weeks of parental leave for their first child
(average paid leave 7.5 wk for women and 1.7 for men). A majority
(75.2\%) of women reported workplace discrimination, including 83.3\% of
Black and 62.5\% of Hispanic women. Twenty percent of women were asked
about their/their partners' pregnancy intentions or child-rearing plans
during interviews for training. Women were more likely to alter career
plans due to child-rearing (30.0\% vs. 15.9\%, p = 0.030). Women were
also more likely to delay having children than men (69.5\%
vs.35.9\%).Conclusions: Women reported sex and maternity bias in the
workplace and during training interviews, which was more frequently
experienced by Black and Hispanic women. As two-thirds of women had
children during training, it is a particularly influential time to
reevaluate programmatic support to address long-term gender disparities
in career advancement.},

Narrative as a Social Defense against the 24/7 Work Culture{*}},
Journal = {ADMINISTRATIVE SCIENCE QUARTERLY},

Abstract = {It is widely accepted that the conflict between women's family
obligations and professional jobs' long hours lies at the heart of their
stalled advancement. Yet research suggests that this ``work-family
narrative{''} is incomplete: men also experience it and nevertheless
advance; moreover, organizations' effort to mitigate it through flexible
work policies has not improved women's advancement prospects and often
hurts them. Hence this presumed remedy has the perverse effect of
perpetuating the problem. Drawing on a case study of a professional
service firm, we develop a multilevel theory to explain why
organizations are caught in this conundrum. We present data suggesting
that the work-family explanation has become a ``hegemonic
narrative{''}-a pervasive, status-quo-preserving story that prevails
despite countervailing evidence. We then advance systems-psychodynamic
theory to show how organizations use this narrative and attendant
policies and practices as an unconscious ``social defense{''} to help
employees fend off anxieties raised by a 24/7 work culture and to
protect organizationally powerful groups-in our case, men and the firm's
leaders-and in so doing, sustain workplace inequality. Due to the social
defense, two orthodoxies remain unchallenged-the necessity of long work
hours and the inescapability of women's stalled advancement. The result
is that women's thin representation at senior levels remains in place.
We conclude by highlighting contributions to work-family, workplace
inequality, and systems-psychodynamic theory.},

Journal = {EMPLOYEE RELATIONS},
Year = {2017},
Volume = {39},
Number = {3, SI},
Pages = {274-290},
Abstract = {Purpose - The purpose of this paper is to examine the role of specific
active labour market policies (ALMP) and increased use of zero hour
contracts (ZHCs) in creating an environment in which low-wage jobs
flourish. Alongside these, it examines the role of financialization over
the last 30 years in fostering the nuturalization of policies that
institutionalize low wages and deregulate the economy in favour of big
business.
Design/methodology/approach - This paper draws upon academic literature,
official statistics, and analyses via the concept of neoliberalism.
Findings - This paper demonstrates that via a set of interconnected
macro and micro factors low pay is set to remain entrenched in the UK.
It has demonstrated that this is not the result of some natural response
to labour market demands. Far from it, it has argued that these policy
choices are neoliberal in motivation and the outcome of establishing low
pay and insecure employment is a significant character of the
contemporary labour market is deliberate.
Research limitations/implications - This paper encourages a re-think of
how the authors address this issue of low pay in the UK by highlighting
alternative forms of understanding the causes of low pay.
Practical implications - It presents an alternative analysis of low pay
in the UK which allows us to understand and call into question the
low-pay economy. In doing so it demonstrates that crucial to this
understanding is state regulation.
Social implications - This paper allows for a more nuanced understanding
of the economic conditions of the inequality caused by low pay, and
provides an argument as to alternative ways in which this can be
addressed.
Originality/value - The paper examines the relationship between the rise
of neoliberalism and finance capital, the subsequent emergence of the
neoliberal organization, the associated proliferation of ALMP and ZHCs,
and the impact of these on creating a low-wage economy. It makes the
argument that the UK's low-wage economy is the result of regulatory
choices influenced by a political preference for financialization, even
if such choices are presented as not being so. Thus, the contribution of
this paper is that it brings together distinct and important
contemporary issues for scholars of employee relations, but connects
them to the role of the state and neoliberal regulation.},

Abstract = {Providing culturally and linguistically appropriate care is a crucial
step toward the elimination of oral health disparities in the United
States.
Background
Health disparities, coupled with rapidly changing demographic trends,
continue to plague healthcare, the health care workforce and population
health. Consequently, there is still more work indicated to ensure
individuals, regardless of race or ethnicity, receive quality health
care at an affordable price. The purpose of this paper is to increase
the awareness of oral health care practitioners about the causes and
consequences of oral health disparities and to highlight promising
strategies aimed at improving effective communication between health
care providers and the patients they serve.
Methods
A narrative utilizing key publications will explain the concept of the
multicultural imperative, and its direct relationship to the elimination
of health disparities including oral health disparities.
Conclusions
It is essential that oral health professionals strive to become
culturally and linguistically proficient in communicating with and
caring for all our patients. Members of professional organizations and
academic institutions can also work to ensure that both students and
current practitioners have access to a curriculum and continuing
education with the intended outcome of increased cultural proficiency.},

type of mobility aid used to support travel, some aspects of day-to-day
travel, and the odds of taking a trip for errands, shopping, social, or

traveling for errands or shopping (OR = 0.68, p < 0.05) compared to
those with a temporary or more recent onset of disability, all else

Abstract = {Changes at work and in the family bring about significant changes in
gender relations and vice versa. Just as the lives of women and men
change, labor market and family relations change. The entry of women
into the labor market of the late 20th and early 21st century has been
significantly affected by the global economy and marked the beginning of
the process of feminisation of work around the globe. However, the
influence of women in the public sphere of work has not resulted in the
socio-economic equality between the two gender groups, men and women.
Different authors suggest that gender division of labor is the main
mechanism for the maintenance of patriarchal capitalism, which supports
the devaluation and marginalization of women workers, in private and
public spheres. The text points out the importance of ``gendered{''}
work, especially of women, the influence of traditional gender roles in
the family on maintaining gender inequality at work, and the
unpreparedness and inadequacy of the global labor market to needs and
interests of women as a gender group. Women's work is characterized by
gender-sensitive participation in the workplace, they receive lower
wages, face gender-segregation and feminization of poverty, while they
are expected to meet the demands of family life to the full extent.
Women, unlike men, have to make their reproductive decisions and the
results of those choices have different implications on their personal
lives and professional arrangements. Therefore, the main problems of
unequal gender power position on the labor market and the harmonization
of work, gender and family functions are still not satisfactorily
resolved, and the feminization of the labor market in the existing
framework of patriarchal capitalism does not satisfactorily contribute
to the elimination of inequalities between men and women in the society.},

Abstract = {Inequality in political participation is a well-known and often studied
feature of American politics. An important study examining misreporting
of voter turnout in opinion surveys, however, calls into question the
true extent of participation inequality. Ansolabehere and Hersh's
first-ever 50-state vote validation project shows that those with more
political resources are more likely to misreport turnout. That is, those
with higher incomes are more likely than others to report that they had
voted when in fact they did not. These findings suggest that income
disparities in participation are not as large as opinion surveys have
led us to believe. Moreover, studies using differences between voters
and nonvoters as a key political indicator may also be biased. This
article presents the first assessment of whether vote misreporting
creates systematic bias in measures of state participation inequality.
An index of economic inequality in participation for the 50 states is
developed using the Ansolabehere and Hersh validated vote data and
compares the measure of political inequality with a similar measure
using traditional (i.e., nonvalidated) survey data. These state indices
are used to determine the extent of bias produced by misreporting and
whether this bias has implications for studies using these measures of
participation inequality. The latter is assessed by examining the
influence of the self-reported and validated inequality measures on
state welfare programs and minimum wage policy.},

Title = {Inequalities in antenatal care in Ghana, 1998-2014},
Journal = {BMC PREGNANCY AND CHILDBIRTH},
Year = {2022},
Volume = {22},
Number = {1},
Month = {JUN 13},
Abstract = {Background In order to effectively and efficiently reduce maternal
mortality and ensure optimal outcomes of pregnancy, equity is required
in availability and provision of antenatal care. Thus, analysis of
trends of socio-economic, demographic, cultural and geographical
inequities is imperative to provide a holistic explanation for
differences in availability, quality and utilization of antenatal care.
We, therefore, investigated the trends in inequalities in four or more
antenatal care visits in Ghana, from 1998 to 2014. Methods We used the
World Health Organization's (WHO) Health Equity Assessment Toolkit
(HEAT) software to analyse data from the 1998 to 2014 Ghana Demographic
and Health Surveys. We disaggregated four or more antenatal care visits
by four equality stratifiers: economic status, level of education, place
of residence, and sub-national region. We measured inequality through
summary measures: Difference, Population Attributable Risk (PAR), Ratio,
and Population Attributable Fraction (PAF). A 95\% uncertainty interval
(UI) was constructed for point estimates to measure statistical
significance. Results The Difference measure of 21.7\% (95\% UI;
15.2-28.2) and the PAF measure of 12.4\% (95\% UI 9.6-15.2) indicated
significant absolute and relative economic-related disparities in four
or more antenatal care visits favouring women in the highest wealth
quintile. In the 2014 survey, the Difference measure of 13.1\% (95\% UI
8.2-19.1) and PAF of 6.5\% (95\% UI 4.2-8.7) indicate wide disparities
in four or more antenatal care visits across education subgroups
disfavouring non-educated women. The Difference measure of 9.3\% (95\%
UI 5.8-12.9) and PAF of 5.8\% (95\% UI 4.7-6.8) suggest considerable
relative and absolute urban-rural disparities in four or more antenatal
care visits disfavouring rural women. The Difference measure of 20.6\%
(95\% UI 8.8-32.2) and PAF of 7.1\% (95\% UI 2.9-11.4) in the 2014
survey show significant absolute and relative regional inequality in
four or more antenatal care visits, with significantly higher coverage
among regions like Ashanti, compared to the Northern region. Conclusions
We found a disproportionately lower uptake of four or more antenatal
care visits among women who were poor, uneducated and living in rural
areas and the Northern region. There is a need for policymakers to
design interventions that will enable disadvantaged subpopulations to
benefit from four or more antenatal care visits to meet the Sustainable
Development Goal 3.1 that aims to reduce the maternal mortality ratio
(MMR) to less than 70/100, 000 live births by 2030. Further studies are
essential to understand the underlying factors for the inequalities in
antenatal care visits.},

Abstract = {A large body of empirical research has demonstrated that foreign
education is a major cause of ethnic disadvantages in the labor market.
However, there are few insights into how these disadvantages of foreign
training can be effectively countered. To improve skilled immigrants'
access to positions commensurate with their foreign qualifications,
several countries have introduced policies to officially recognize
foreign educational credentials. In this study, we examine the extent to
which having recognized foreign credentials improves immigrants' chances
of being hired. To identify the causal effect of foreign credential
recognition on immigrants' chances of accessing adequate jobs, we focus
on employers' hiring decisions. Using vignettes, we simulate a hiring
process and show randomized profiles of applicants to employers who then
rate how likely they are to invite the applicants to a job interview.
Our central finding is that having recognized foreign credentials
considerably narrows but does not completely close the gap in the hiring
chances between foreign- and native-trained applicants. Moreover, we
find that the extent to which applicants benefit from foreign credential
recognition varies with their occupational experience but not with the
quality of the educational system in which they were trained. We
conclude that whereas foreign credential recognition is a promising tool
to highlight immigrants' skill potential and reduce the disadvantages of
the foreign-trained in the labor market, it hardly harmonizes the hiring
chances of native- and foreign-trained applicants.},

Title = {Challenges and Possible Solutions to Colorectal Cancer Screening for the
Underserved},

Year = {2014},

Abstract = {Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a leading cause of cancer mortality
worldwide. CRC incidence and mortality can be reduced through screening.
However, in the United States, screening participation remains
suboptimal, particularly among underserved populations such as the
uninsured, recent immigrants, and racial/ethnic minority groups.
Increasing screening rates among underserved populations will reduce the
US burden of CRC. In this commentary focusing on underserved
populations, we highlight the public health impact of CRC screening,
list key challenges to screening the underserved, and review promising
approaches to boost screening rates. We identify four key policy and
research priorities to increase screening among underserved populations:
1) actively promote the message, ``the best test is the one that gets
done{''}; 2) develop and implement methods to identify unscreened
individuals within underserved population groups for screening
interventions; 3) develop and implement approaches for organized
screening delivery; and 4) fund and enhance programs and policies that
provide access to screening, diagnostic follow-up, and CRC treatment for
underserved populations. This commentary represents the consensus of a
diverse group of experts in cancer control and prevention, epidemiology,
gastroenterology, and primary care from across the country who formed
the Coalition to Boost Screening among the Underserved in the United
States. The group was organized and held its first annual working group
meeting in conjunction with the World Endoscopy Organization's annual
Colorectal Cancer Screening Committee meeting during Digestive Disease
Week 2012 in San Diego, California.},

Abstract = {Qualitative research has demonstrated the prevalence of gender inequity
and sexism in sport-related careers, including those in sport
psychology. To provide quantitative evidence, we examined the role of
gender in Certified Mental Performance Consultants' (CMPC)
specialization and employment by extracting and coding the data (N= 576)
from the CMPC Directory. Independent samples t tests showed that male
CMPCs specialized in more masculine sports, less feminine sports, and a
similar number of gender-neutral sports compared with female CMPCs.
Chi-square tests of independence revealed a larger proportion of male
than female CMPCs working in professional sport. No significant
differences were found in other employment settings (college sport,
military, and private practice), age-group specialization, and mental
health licensure. These findings, which should be interpreted with
caution before further investigation, suggest a need for collaboration
between sport psychology professionals and sport organizations that
might help mitigate internal and external barriers to gender equity.},

Title = {Job loss, return to work, and multidimensional well-being after breast
cancer treatment in working-age Black and White women},
Journal = {JOURNAL OF CANCER SURVIVORSHIP},
Year = {2023},
Volume = {17},
Number = {3},
Pages = {805-814},
Month = {JUN},
Abstract = {Purpose Breast cancer survivorship has improved in recent decades, but
few studies have assessed the patterns of employment status following
diagnosis and the impact of job loss on long-term well-being in
ethnically diverse breast cancer survivors. We hypothesized that
post-treatment employment status is an important determinant of survivor
well-being and varies by race and age.
Methods In the Carolina Breast Cancer Study, 1646 employed women with
primary breast cancer were longitudinally evaluated for post-diagnosis
job loss and overall well-being. Work status was classified as
``sustained work,{''} ``returned to work,{''} ``job loss,{''} or
``persistent non-employment.{''} Well-being was assessed by the
Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy (FACT-G) instrument. Analysis of
covariance was used to evaluate the association between work status and
well-being (physical, functional, social, and emotional).
Results At 25 months post-diagnosis, 882 (53.6\%) reported ``sustained
work,{''} 330 (20.1\%) ``returned to work,{''} 162 (9.8\%) ``job
loss,{''} and 272 (16.5\%) ``persistent non-employment.{''} Nearly half
of the study sample (46.4\%) experienced interruptions in work during 2
years post-diagnosis. Relative to baseline (5-month FACT-G), women who
sustained work or returned to work had higher increases in all
well-being domains than women with job loss and persistent
non-employment. Job loss was more common among Black than White women
(adjusted odds ratio = 3.44; 95\% confidence interval 2.37-4.99) and was
associated with service/laborer job types, lower education and income,
later stage at diagnosis, longer treatment duration, and non-private
health insurance. However, independent of clinical factors, job loss was
associated with lower well-being in multiple domains.
Conclusions Work status is commonly disrupted in breast cancer
survivors, but sustained work is associated with well-being.
Interventions to support women's continued employment after diagnosis
are an important dimension of breast cancer survivorship.
Implications for Cancer Survivors Our findings indicate that work
continuation and returning to work may be a useful measure for a range
of wellbeing concerns, particularly among Black breast cancer survivors
who experience greater job loss.},

Title = {Trade, wages, and the political economy of trade protection: evidence
from the Colombian trade reforms},
Journal = {JOURNAL OF INTERNATIONAL ECONOMICS},
Year = {2005},
Volume = {66},
Number = {1},
Pages = {75-105},
Month = {MAY},
Abstract = {Worker industry affiliation plays a crucial role in how trade policy
affects wages in many trade models. Yet, most research has focused on
how trade policy affects wages by altering the economy-wide returns to a
specific worker characteristic (i.e., skill or education) rather than
through worker industry affiliation. This paper exploits drastic trade
liberalizations in Colombia in the 1980s and 1990s to investigate the
relationship between protection and industry wage premiums. We relate
wage premiums to trade policy in an empirical framework that accounts
for the political economy of trade protection. Accounting for
time-invariant political economy factors is critical. When we do not
control for unobserved time-invariant industry characteristics, we find
that workers in protected sectors earn less than workers with similar
observable characteristics in unprotected sectors. Allowing for industry
fixed effects reverses the result: trade protection increases relative
wages. This positive relationship persists when we instrument for tariff
changes. Our results are in line with short-and medium-ran models of
trade where labor is immobile across sectors or, alternatively, with the
existence of industry rents that are reduced by trade liberalization. In
the context of the current debate on the rising income inequality in
developing countries, our findings point to a source of disparity beyond
the well-documented rise in the economy-wide skill premium: because
tariff reductions were proportionately larger in sectors employing a
high fraction of less-skilled workers, the decrease in the wage premiums
in these sectors affected such workers disproportionately. (c) 2004

Volume = {17},

Abstract = {Since the development of the immigrant enclave thesis, there has been a
disagreement regarding whether the immigrant enclave hurts or benefits
individual immigrants' earnings. The controversy mainly arises from the
imprecise way by which enclave participation is measured and from the
difference in performance between entrepreneurs and workers. This study
uses data from the 2006 Census of Canada to examine how Chinese
immigrants who participate in the mainstream economy and enclave economy
differ in earnings. Using ``the language used most often at work{''} to
determine enclave participation, the study finds that actual and net
earnings of Chinese immigrants in the enclave are lower than those of
their counterparts in the mainstream economy. However, when the
interaction between human capital and enclave participation is
considered, human capital brings a net negative return to enclave
participants, but at the same time, a positive effect associated with
enclave participation. The positive effect may be understood as coming
from unmeasured ethnic and cultural features of the enclave that provide
a cushion to lessen the magnitude of income disadvantages in the
enclave. The study suggests that there is evidence to support both sides
of the debate: enclave participants have lower net returns, but the
enclave provides a cushioning effect in reducing earnings disparities.
The study suggests that integration policy towards immigrants may
consider immigrant enclaves as providing some support to immigrants to
soften some disadvantages, but enclaves do not offer the same
opportunities as the mainstream economy.},

healthcare in Greece},
Journal = {INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF HUMAN RIGHTS IN HEALTH CARE},
Year = {2018},
Volume = {11},
Number = {4, SI},
Pages = {298-311},
Abstract = {Purpose The purpose of this paper is to investigate the cases of
Bangladeshi, Filipina, Nigerian, Palestinian and Pakistani migrant
workers and how the frame of their work and employment in precarious,
low-status/low-wage jobs affects their perceptions and practices
regarding health and access to healthcare services.
Design/methodology/approach Using qualitative research methodology, the
analysis via in-depth interviews focuses on male Bangladeshi, Nigerian,
Pakistani and Palestinian unskilled manual and textile laborers as well
as street vendors, and female Filipina live-in domestic workers.
Findings Migrants are entrapped in a context of isolative and
exploitative working conditions, i.e., in unskilled labor, textile work,
street-vending, personal services, care and domestic work, which lead
them to adopt a self-perception in which healthcare and social
protection are not a priority.
Social implications Throughout the paper it has become clear that these
precarious low-status/low-wage jobs have an important underside effect
on migrants' lives, intensifying labor and health instability and
exposing migrants to employment-generating activities that do not
guarantee health safety. In Greek society, the impact of migration on
public health is characterized by many as a time bomb ready to explode,
especially in urban centers. Meanwhile, the economy and particularly the
informal sector of the labor market is benefiting from migrant workers.
More research is needed as this mode of exploitative labor and
precarious employment needs to be adequately addressed to mitigate
barriers in the access of labor and healthcare rights.
Originality/value Via its contribution to the sociology of migration
with particular emphasis on labor healthcare, the paper provides
evidence that due to their concentration in precarious,
low-status/low-wage jobs migrant workers have very limited access to
healthcare services. The removal of inequalities and discrimination
against migrant workers in accessing healthcare services and medical
care is a challenge for South European Union countries and particularly
for Greece. However, in spite of this, there is no uniform policy in the
management of migrants with respect to their access to health services.
The paper will aid debates between policy makers and academics working
on migration and inequalities due to the division of labor and health
disparities, will contribute to the understanding of the perils attached
to precarious, low-status/low-wage jobs and in addressing health
inequalities effectively.},

Year = {2006},
Volume = {62},

Abstract = {The dynamics of labor force participation and joblessness during young
adulthood influence access to social and material resources and shape
exposure to different sources of psychosocial strain. Differences in
these dynamics by race, ethnicity, and gender are related to changes in
a behavioral determinant of poor health (tobacco use) for young adults
aging into midlife. Using discrete-time hazards models, we estimate the
relationship between labor force participation in the past year and
smoking cessation for US adults (ages 14-21 years in 1979) followed in a
population-representative sample until 1998 (i.e. the National
Longitudinal Survey of Youth). We assess the unique role of racial,
ethnic and gender differences in exposure, vulnerability, and reactivity
to employment and joblessness by controlling for social and economic
resources obtained through working and by controlling for early life
factors that select individuals into certain labor force and smoking
trajectories. There are three main findings: (1) joblessness is more
strongly associated with persistent daily smoking among women than among
men; (2) fewer social and economic resources for women out of the labor
force compared to employed women explains their lower cessation rates;
and (3) lower cessation among unemployed women compared to employed
women can only partially be explained by these resources. These findings
illustrate how differential access to work-related social and economic
resources is an important mediator of poor health trajectories.
Contextual factors such as social norms and psychosocial strains at work
and at home may play a unique role among European American men and women
in explaining gender differences in smoking (c) 2005 Elsevier Ltd. All

Abstract = {This article explores the (in)equality dynamic of childcare-related
policy reforms in post-Yugoslav countries to expose `silent' cleavages
embedded in parenting leaves and early childhood education and care
policies design that may challenge or reinforce parental (in)equalities
in employment and care opportunities. It is guided by the principles and
(sub-)questions of intersectionality-based policy analysis to determine
who benefits and/or is excluded from the policy goals and allocation of
childcare-related resources. All former Yugoslav republics initially
relied on gendered and selective childcare-related policy design,
empowering only a fraction of working mothers. In the last three decades
only Slovenia equalized the potential of childcare-related policy
allowing various parents to more easily engage in care and employment.
The other post-Yugoslav countries that were more exposed to the
post-1990 societal re-traditionalization and cost-containment measures
mostly exacerbated the existing or created new layers of inequalities
and (dis)advantages intersecting along gender, class, ethnical and
spatial lines. While enacting more socially inclusive leaves, they also
amplified the systematic exclusion of some parents from access to
childcare-related rights and the opportunity to work and care. Parents,
particularly mothers in precarious employment, ethnic minorities and
`new' migrants, as well as those living in less developed areas, were
the most affected by the (absence of) reforms.},

examine the associations among social capital, primary care resources,
and adult PHs and pediatric asthma hospitalizations.
Data Extraction. Data were merged at the zip code-level (n=837).
Principal Findings. Few of the social capital measures were
independently associated with PHs: longer mean commute times (reduced
bonding social capital) were related to higher adult rates; more racial
and ethnic diversity (increased bridging social capital) was related to
lower nonelderly adult rates but higher pediatric rates; more
faith-based organizations (linking social capital) were associated with
higher nonelderly adult rates. Having a safety net clinic within 20
miles was associated with lower adult rates, while general internists
were associated with higher rates. More pediatricians per capita were
related to higher pediatric rates.
Conclusions. The importance of social capital for health care access is
unclear. Some bonding and bridging ties were related to PHs, but
differentially across age groups; more work is needed to operationalize
linking ties.},

Title = {Subjective Well-Being of Professional Females: A Case Study of Dalian
High-Tech Industrial Zone},
Journal = {FRONTIERS IN PSYCHOLOGY},
Year = {2022},
Volume = {13},
Month = {JUL 5},
Abstract = {The education level and social participation of contemporary Chinese
women have reached their historical peak; work is fast becoming the
dominant theme of their lives. However, influenced by traditional
attitudes, women are still expected to undertake the main family care
tasks, thus, facing dual constraints of family and work, which seriously
affect their life happiness. Based on the theory of subjective
well-being and feminist geography, this study used the questionnaire
survey and in-depth interview results of professional females in Dalian
High-tech Industrial Zone as basic data to explore the life satisfaction
and emotional cognition in intra- and extra-household life of
professional females (Professional females: In this study, they are the
women who have received formal education and currently have full-time
and steady job (including regular employees in the national systems and
those who have signed labor contracts with labor units).). The following
results were obtained: (1) Most professional females reported higher
life satisfaction in intra- rather than extra-household life, and it
varied with individual attributes, reflecting the internal differences
among them. (2) The positive emotions of professional females came from
the company of family and friends in intra-household life, and
satisfaction with the working environment and treatment in
extra-household life. (3) The negative emotions came from the pressure
of ``marriage,{''} ``birth,{''} and other traditional concepts in
intra-household life. In extra-household life, it came from the health
problems caused by working stress, interpersonal problems and gender
inequality in the workplace, and the anxiety of age and future career
development. Therefore, this study committed to revealing the living
status and subjective feelings of contemporary professional females in
China, hoping to improve women's life quality and enhance their life
happiness from a theoretical and realistic perspective.},

Journal = {JOURNAL OF SOCIAL ISSUES},
Year = {2023},
Volume = {79},
Number = {3, SI},
Pages = {1035-1056},
Month = {SEP},
Abstract = {Before the pandemic, immigrant mothers from Latin America in the United
States typically shouldered the weight of caregiving for children,
maintained jobs, and managed transnational care responsibilities. But as
COVID-19 erupted across the globe, the combination of gendered roles and
a collapsing economy ruptured the already fragile arrangement of
childcare and paid labor for Latina immigrant mothers. In this article,
I examine how school closures intersected with Latina women's identities
and social positions as immigrant mothers who suddenly confronted job
loss, illness, and increased familial responsibilities. I show how
Latina immigrant women renegotiated relationships to schooling, becoming
teachers overnight in an unfamiliar system. Mothers shifted educational
aspirations for their children to prioritize safety, as they managed
increased stress and conflict while schools remained remote. I
demonstrate how the breakdowns in care infrastructure forced mothers to
rethink the elusive balance between paid labor and childcare, especially
for those who were undocumented. Throughout, I explore how immigrant
women's intersecting identities left them vulnerable to structural
racism and exclusionary immigration policies. Despite the multiple
layers of struggle, women continued to support their children's
education and socio-emotional well-being, even in the face of multiple
levels of gendered, racialized inequalities.},

Title = {Diagnostics barriers and innovations in rural areas: insights from
junior medical doctors on the frontlines of rural care in Peru},
Journal = {BMC HEALTH SERVICES RESEARCH},
Year = {2015},
Volume = {15},
Month = {OCT 5},
Abstract = {Background: Worldwide, rural communities face barriers when accessing
health services. In response, numerous initiatives have focused on
fostering technological innovations, new management approaches and
health policies. Research suggests that the most successful innovations
are those involving stakeholders at all levels. However, there is little
evidence exploring the opinions of local health providers that could
contribute with further innovation development and research. The aims of
this study were to explore the perspectives of medical doctors (MDs)
working in rural areas of Peru, regarding the barriers impacting the
diagnostic process, and ideas for diagnostic innovations that could
assist them.
Methods: Data gathered through three focus group discussions (FGG) and
18 individual semi-structured interviews (SSI) with MDs who had
completed their medical service in rural areas of Peru in the last two
years were analyzed using thematic analysis.
Results: Three types of barriers emerged. The first barrier was the
limited access to point of care (POC) diagnostic tools. Tests were
needed for: i) the differential diagnosis of malaria vs. pneumonia, ii)
dengue vs. leptospirosis, iii) tuberculosis, iv) vaginal infections and
cervical cancer, v) neurocysticercosis, and vi) heavy metal toxicity.
Ultrasound was needed for the diagnosis of obstetric and intra-abdominal
conditions. There were also health system-related barriers such as
limited funding for diagnostic services, shortage of specialists,
limited laboratory services and access to telecommunications, and lack
of institutional support. Finally, the third type of barriers included
patient related-barriers to follow through with diagnostic referrals.
Ideas for innovations proposed included POC equipment and tests, and
telemedicine.
Conclusions: MDs at primary health facilities in rural Peru face
diagnostic challenges that are difficult to overcome due to a limited
access to diagnostic tools. Referrals to specialized facilities are
constrained by deficiencies in the organization of health services and
by barriers that impede the patients' travel to distant health
facilities. Technological innovations suggested by the participants such
as POC diagnostic tools and mobile-health (m-health) applications could
help address part of the problem. However, other types of innovation to
address social, adaptation and policy issues should not be dismissed.},

mixed embeddedness perspective},
Journal = {INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF GENDER AND ENTREPRENEURSHIP},
Year = {2016},
Volume = {8},
Number = {3},
Pages = {307-326},
Abstract = {Purpose - This paper aims to utilize a mixed-embeddedness approach to
examine how state welfare policies, employment conditions and gender
norms shape orientations to divisions of business and domestic labor
among Czech copreneurs, i.e. romantic couples involved in businesses
together.
Design/methodology/approach - Twelve copreneur couples were interviewed;
male and female partners were interviewed separately. Women's narratives
are centered in analyzing motivations for business, divisions of labor,
orientation to business/family and state policies. After detailing
women's orientations, correspondence with male partner orientations is
considered.
Findings - Analysis reveals how state policies, employment conditions
and gender norms inform copreneur narratives about business and family
life in the Czech Republic. Female respondents expressed three
orientations: business as opportunity, business for family and
business/home as teamwork. Women tended both business and family,
whereas most male partners focused exclusively on business.
Research limitations/implications - Although the small, purposive sample
was not representative of all Czech copreneurs, findings detail how
social context frames business/family dynamics.
Practical implications - This mixed-embeddedness perspective
demonstrates how gender norms, state taxation and welfare shape the
organization of Czech copreneurships and can support or discourage
women's entrepreneurship.
Social implications - Mechanisms producing gender inequality in
copreneur businesses are revealed.
Originality/value - Findings identify connections between female
copreneur business/family orientations and the context of gender
regimes, state policy and employment practices in a post-socialist
country. Also revealed are changing orientations across family and
business stages.},

health literacy programmes delivered by community organisations: a
qualitative study based on the theory of planned behaviour},
Journal = {BMJ OPEN},
Year = {2022},
Volume = {12},
Number = {3},
Month = {MAR},
Abstract = {Objectives Reluctance to seek help is a leading contributor to
escalating mental injury rates in Australian workplaces. We explored the
benefit of using community organisations to deliver mental health
literacy programmes to overcome workplace barriers to help-seeking
behaviours. Design This study used a qualitative application of the
theory of planned behaviour to examine underlying beliefs that may
influence worker's intentions to participate in mental health literacy
programmes delivered by community organisations and manager support for
them. Setting This study took place within three large white-collar
organisations in the Australian state of Victoria. Participants Eighteen
workers and 11 managers (n=29) were interviewed to explore perspectives
of the benefits of such an approach. Results Community organisations
have six attributes that make them suitable as an alternative mental
health literacy programme provider including empathy, safety,
relatability, trustworthiness, social support and inclusivity.
Behavioural beliefs included accessibility, understanding and
objectivity. The lack of suitability and legitimacy due to poor
governance and leadership was disadvantages. Normative beliefs were that
family and friends would most likely approve, while line managers and
colleagues were viewed as most likely to disapprove. Control beliefs
indicated that endorsements from relevant bodies were facilitators of
participation. Distance/time constraints and the lack of skills,
training and lived experiences of coordinators/facilitators were seen as
barriers. Conclusions Identifying workers' beliefs and perceptions of
community organisations has significant implication for the development
of effective community-based strategies to improve worker mental health
literacy and help seeking. Organisations with formal governance
structures, allied with government, peak bodies and work-related mental
health organisations would be most suitable. Approaches should focus on
lived experience and be delivered by qualified facilitators. Promoting
supervisor and colleague support could improve participation. Models to
guide cross-sector collaborations to equip community organisations to
deliver work-related mental health literacy programmes need to be
explored.},

Abstract = {A recent call to address health care disparities has come from the
Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education's (ACGME's)
Clinical Learning Environment Review (CLER) program. The CLER program
aspires that faculty and residents will identify the disparities among
the patient populations they serve and engage in quality improvement
(QI) activities designed to address them. In this Perspective, the
authors provide a framework for integrating QI and health equity
principles in graduate medical education to meet these ACGME
expectations. The authors illustrate their four-step framework by
describing a faculty development workshop that provides strategies and
tools for embedding equity into existing QI educational efforts and
using QI methods to address equity challenges. Using examples, the
authors outline how medical educators can begin to integrate QI and
equity initiatives to address health care disparities and involve their
residents/fellows in the process. In addition, the authors emphasize the
importance of applying an equity lens to QI interventions and of
recognizing that QI initiatives will have different impacts on outcomes
depending on the patient population. The authors conclude by discussing
the need for institutional leadership to build capacity and training to
improve data collection and reporting of quality metrics by demographic
variables; provide resources to disseminate lessons learned; support
faculty development to teach and mentor trainees through equity-related
QI work; and prioritize time in the curriculum for learners to
participate in equity improvement activities.},

Title = {Protocol to develop sustainable day care for children aged 1-4 years in
disadvantaged urban communities in Dhaka, Bangladesh},
Journal = {BMJ OPEN},
Year = {2018},
Volume = {8},
Number = {7},
Month = {SEP},
Abstract = {Introduction Lack of safe, stimulating and health-promoting environments
for children under-5 hinders their physical, social and cognitive
development, known as early childhood development (ECD). Improving ECD
impacts on children, and can improve educational attainment for girls,
who often care for younger siblings, and employment prospects for
mothers. Developing and evaluating the impacts of ECD programmes within
childcare needs to assess a range of social, health, educational and
economic impacts, including women's empowerment. Children living in
slums are at high risk of poor early development and holistic,
sustainable interventions are needed to address ECD in these contexts.
This study will be undertaken in Dhaka, Bangladesh, a city where over
8.5 million inhabitants live in slums. In collaboration with government,
non-governmental organisations and communities, we are developing and
testing a sustainable day-care model for low-income communities in
Dhaka.
Methodology and analysis A sequential mixed methods approach is being
used in the study, with qualitative work exploring quantitative
findings. Two hundred households with children under-5 will be surveyed
to determine day-care needs and to assess ECD (parent-reported and
direct assessment). The feasibility of four ECD measuring tools
Caregiver-Reported Early Development Index, Measuring Early Learning
Quality and Outcomes, The Early Human Capability Index and International
Development and Early Learning Assessment will be assessed
quantitatively and qualitatively. Qualitative methods will help
understand demand and perceptions of day care while mothers work.
Participatory action research will be used to develop a locally
appropriate and potentially sustainable model of day care for under-5
children. A ward in the south of Dhaka has been selected for the study
as this typifies communities with slum and non-slum households living
next to each other, allowing us to explore potential for better-off
household to subsidise day care for poorer households.
Ethics and dissemination Findings will be published and inform decision
makers at the national, regional and the local actors in order to embed
the study into the policy and practice on childcare and ECD. Ethical
approvals for this study were obtained from the School of Medicine
Research Ethics Committee at the Faculty of Medicine and Health at the
University of Leeds (ref: MREC16-106) and the Bangladesh Medical
Research Council (ref: BMRCAIREC/20 I 6-20 I 9 I 250).},

policies},
Journal = {SSM-POPULATION HEALTH},
Year = {2021},
Volume = {15},
Month = {SEP},
Abstract = {Part-time work is a common work arrangement in the United States that
can be precarious, insecure, and lacking opportunities for advancement.
In turn, part-time work, especially involuntary part-time work, tends to
be associated with worse health outcomes. Although prior research
documents heterogeneity in the health consequences of precarious work
across countries, we do not know whether state-level institutional
contexts shape the association between part-time work and self-rated
health in the United States. Using data from the Current Population
Survey (2009-2019; n = 813,077), the present study examined whether
linkages between part-time work and self-rated health are moderated by
state-level social policies and contexts. At the population level, we
document differences in the prevalence of fair/poor health among
part-time workers across states. For instance, 21\% of involuntary
part-time workers reported fair/poor health in West Virginia compared to
7\% of involuntary part-time workers in Massachusetts. Findings also
provide evidence that voluntary (beta = .51) and involuntary (beta=.57)
part-time work is associated with greater odds of fair/poor health among
individuals. Moreover, the association between voluntary part-time work
and self-rated health is weaker for individuals living in states with
higher amounts for maximum unemployment insurance, higher minimum wage,
and lower income inequality. State-level policies did not moderate the
association between involuntary part-time work and health. The present
study points to the need to mitigate the health consequences of
part-time work with social policies that enhance the health of workers.},

and female plot manager- to investigate how the variable of choice
affects the calculation of the gender gap. Our analysis obtains
different results depending on the gender variable of choice. The study
finds that regardless of the variable of choice, the gender gap in
agricultural productivity decreases or disappears when factors of
production and crop choice are controlled for. The conditional gender
gap is about 10\% and significant when using female plot manager as the
gender variable, while we find no conditional gender gap when using the
other gender variables. The use of time fixed-effects and decomposition
contributes evidence that the typically available gender variables are
insufficient for identifying how gender and decision-making of different
household members play a role in productivity. This finding is
problematic for targeting effective interventions to increase
agricultural productivity and reduce gender inequalities in agriculture.
Finally, we find that the older status of female heads, holders and
manager of plots, child dependency ratio, and limited access to adult
male labor are factors decreasing productivity in female plots in
Uganda. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.},

Abstract = {Purpose: To examine the impact of the American College of Obstetricians
and Gynecologists and Society for Maternal-Fetal Medicine (ACOG-SMFM)
2014 recommendations for preventing unnecessary primary
Cesareans.Methods: In a population-based cohort of births in New York
City from 2012 to 2016, we used con-trolled interrupted time series
analyses to estimate changes in age-standardized Cesarean rates among
nulliparous, term, singleton vertex (NTSV) deliveries.Results: Among
192,405 NTSV births across 40 hospitals, the age-standardized NTSV
Cesarean rate de-creased after the ACOG-SMFM recommendations from 25.8\%
to 24.0\% (Risk ratio {[}RR]: 0.93; 95\% CI 0.89, 0.97), with no change
in the control series. Decreases were observed among non-Hispanic White
women (RR: 0.89; 95\% CI 0.82, 0.97), but not among non-Hispanic Black
women (RR: 0.97; 95\% CI 0.88, 1.07), Asian/Pacific Islanders (RR: 1.01;
95\% CI 0.91, 1.12), or Hispanic women (RR: 0.94; 95\% CI 0.86, 1.02).
Sim-ilar patterns were observed at teaching hospitals, with no change at
nonteaching hospitals.Conclusions: While low-risk Cesarean rates may be
modifiable through changes in labor management, additional research, and
interventions to address Cesarean disparities, are needed.(c) 2023

Journal = {PANOECONOMICUS},
Year = {2011},
Volume = {58},
Number = {5, SI},
Pages = {651-674},
Abstract = {This inquiry analyzes how political orientations shape welfare states
and labour market institutions when seeking to reduce poverty. In order
to identify effects of these two key variables, we conduct a panel
regression analysis that includes two poverty measures: poverty rates
before and after social spending. This inquiry considers 14 EU
countries, and in the period from 1995 to 2008, which are grouped
according to welfare state regimes We consider Social Democratic,
Corporatist, Mediterranean and Liberal welfare state regimes. Panel
regression results indicate that political orientation engenders no
significant statistically measurable effects on poverty rates before
social spending. Effects register, however, as significant when
considering poverty rates after social spending. With respect to the
first set of results, we advance two key explanations. First, we note a
longer period of time is necessary in order to observe actual effects of
political orientation on market generated poverty. Second, political
parties with their respective programs do not register as influential
enough to solve social problems related to income disiribution when
taken alone. Influences register as indirect and are expressed through
changes in employment rates and social spending. The second set of
results support the hypothesis that a selected political regime does
indeed contribute to poverty reduction. In sum, political orientation
and political regime does indeed affect poverty through welfare state
institutions, as well as through labour market institutions.},

Abstract = {Purpose: Youth with disabilities experience barriers in transitioning to
Post-Secondary Education (PSE) and employment. Mentorship programs
provide a promising approach to supporting youth through those
transitions. This paper aims to identify the effective components of
mentorship programs and describe participants' experiences. Method: We
undertook a systematic review of mentorship interventions for youth and
young adults with disabilities. We searched seven electronic databases
for peer-reviewed articles published in English between 1980 and 2014.
We included articles that examined mentorship interventions focused on
PSE or employment outcomes among youth, aged thirty or younger, with
physical, developmental, or cognitive disabilities. Results: Of the 5068
articles identified, 22 met the inclusion criteria. For seven mentorship
interventions, at least one significant improvement was reported in
school- or work-related outcomes. Mentorship programs with significant
outcomes were often structured, delivered in group-based or mixed
formats, and longer in duration (>6 months). Mentors acted as role
models, offered advice, and provided mentees with social and emotional
support. Conclusions: Evidence suggests that mentorship programs may be
effective for helping youth with disabilities transition to PSE or
employment. More rigorously designed studies are needed to document the
impact of mentorship programs on school and vocational outcomes for
youth with disabilities.},

Abstract = {Background Health and social inequality are associated with multiple
adverse childhood experiences including poverty, mental illness, and
child maltreatment. While effective interventions currently exist for
many health and social problems, large segments of the population
experience barriers accessing needed services. In alignment with broader
public health efforts to reduce health and social inequality in one
state in the U.S.A., the current study describes the development and
formative evaluation of a brief, low cost, portable model of
prevention-oriented family service navigation called Navigate Your Way.
Methods Caregivers of children experiencing significant unmet health or
social service needs were recruited to the study. Participants completed
an initial and closing telephone interview which included measures of
past and current family health and social service utilization, service
barriers, parenting stress, and child internalizing/externalizing
behaviors. Between interviews participants created a family service plan
and received 10 weeks of telephone and web-mediated family navigation,
at which time process and fidelity of implementation data were
collected. Frequency and descriptive statistics are provided for
participant demographic characteristics, service barriers, intervention
engagement, and primary and secondary study outcomes. Paired samples
t-tests examined changes in study outcomes between initial and closing
telephone interviews. Results Thirty two caregivers enrolled,
twenty-nine completed the study. The age range was 20-59 (M = 39.5, SD =
10.0). The majority identified as female (96.9\%, n = 31), racial/ethnic
minority (56.2\%, n = 18), and reported an average 10 barriers to care
(M = 10.4, SD = 4.1). The most frequently reported service needs were
mental health care, housing, food security, transportation, and health
insurance. The mean duration of intervention delivery was 83 days. Most
participants (82.8\%, n = 24) were connected to one or more health or
social services. Caregivers reported significant improvements to youth
internalizing behaviors (d = 2.5, p = .05) and high levels of overall
satisfaction with the navigation approach. Conclusion Telephone and
web-mediated service navigation is a feasible and practical approach to
supporting families in rapidly connecting to health and social care.
Future research investigating the efficacy and implementation of
Navigate Your Way in routine settings is indicated.},

Abstract = {COVID-19 pandemic has deeply affected the economy and deepening
inequality and poverty. Changes are going to be so deep that it is
difficult to imagine that things will be as they were before the disease
in Latin American countries and their cities. The magnitude of the
phenomenon has been different among Latin American countries. We
recognize that this crisis is the ``top of the iceberg{''} of capitalism
endemic crisis and that its impacts on cities have been profound. A
brief account of recent historical urban context of Latin American
unequal and unsustainable development process shows that it has
delivered cities with social, economic, spatial and environmental deep
problems which represent a breeding ground for COVID-19, as well as for
climate change and social inequality's threats and for new pandemics to
come. Before this panorama we propose that ``other city is possible{''},
if it is recognized that deep changes have to be carried out beyond the
ordinary ones: health of fossil capitalism; reduce energy consumption;
recover ecosystems; transform cities. A different ``territorial
matrix{''} that recognizes cities as spaces for development not as fatal
destinies is needed; able to put ahead the ``right to the city{''} and
the ``right of nature{''} and that cities should be well governed with
social participation. We have to recover recent good practices: work at
home with labor rights, thoroughly rebuild housing, urban expansion and
mobility policies. Is it possible to imagine a response as energetic as
before COVID-19 against climate change and socio-spatial inequality?},

Year = {2008},
Volume = {37},
Number = {3},

Abstract = {Our study extends research on the feminization of poverty by analyzing
the variation in women's, men's, and feminized poverty across affluent
democracies from 1969 to 2000. Specifically, we address three issues.
First, we provide more recent estimates of adult women's and men's
poverty and the ratio of women's to men's poverty with two different
poverty measures. We suggest that by incorporating the elderly, the
feminization of poverty may be greater than previously estimated. The
feminization of poverty is nearly universal across affluent Western
democracies 1969-2000. Second, we show that women's, men's and overall
poverty are highly correlated, but the feminization of poverty diverges
as a distinct social problem. Third, we find that women's, men's and
overall poverty share several correlates, particularly the welfare
state, though some differences exist. At the same time, several of our
findings differ with past research. The feminization of poverty is only
influenced by social security transfers, single motherhood and the sex
ratios of the elderly and labor force participation. While power
resources theory probably best explains women's, men's and overall
poverty, structural theory may best explain the feminization of poverty.
We conclude by discussing how analyses of the feminization of poverty
contribute to debates on poverty and gender inequality. (C) 2007

Abstract = {Given the geographical variation in socio-economic and infrastructural
development in Nigeria, this study examines the possible effect of the
different sources of sub-national government revenue across the country.
This is in contrast to previous studies that are either based on
individual unit level of analysis or examined the relationship between
the aggregated composition of government revenue with socio-economic and
infrastructural development in the country. The data for this study were
assembled from the National Bureau of Statistics, Federal Ministry of
Health and Federal Ministry of Education and were analysed using spatial
statistics and stepwise linear regression. Findings show that
sub-national government revenue is spatially dispersed, while federal
allocation (FA) accounted for the major source of sub-national
government revenue, indicating poor internal revenue generation by
states. Pay-as-you-earn tax (PAYE), revenue from Ministries and
Departments (MDAs), direct assessment, road taxes and FA were negatively
correlated with gross domestic product (GDP) per capita, the provision
of educational facilities and employment, while PAYE, revenue from MDAs
and FA were associated with the provision of health facilities. The
study recommends that, to boost revenue generation, states should focus
on the production of commodities for which they have comparative
advantage. Also, to achieve comprehensive socio-economic and
infrastructural development, the government must be strategic in the
allocation of revenue, which entails having a framework that will
include projects of immense benefits to the citizens while also ensuring
equitable allocation of revenue in the provision of basic services.},

Abstract = {This study aimed to identify the reasons why most girls living in rural
areas are not able to pursue their upper-secondary education. The study
group consisted of 10 girls living in the rural areas of Tokat province
and had not been sent to upper-secondary education, 10 parents who did
not send their daughters to upper-secondary education, and 66 teachers
and school administrators. The data were collected via interviews.
During the interviews, demographic data of the girls and families, as
well as the reasons why the girls were not sent to school, were
collected. The data were then examined via content analysis. Measures to
ensure validity and reliability were taken during data collection,
processing, and analysis. In the study, 21 reasons, which were further
categorized into 4 themes, were identified. Our findings have determined
patriarchy, distrust, conservatism, poverty, use of child labor, child
marriage, distance to school, and peer pressure as the main reasons
preventing the girls to pursue their upper-secondary education.
Furthermore, most answers consisted of a combination of two or more
reasons. Thus, we recommend that public institutions and NGOs,
especially the Ministry of National Education, the Ministry of Family
and Social Policies, and the Ministry of Health, should focus on studies
that aim to change the gender perception of rural families for equality.},

Title = {Assessing the efficacy of a job rotation for improving occupational
physical and psychosocial work environment, musculoskeletal health,
social equality, production quality and resilience at a commercial
laundromat: protocol for a longitudinal case study},
Journal = {BMJ OPEN},
Year = {2023},
Volume = {13},

Month = {MAY},
Abstract = {IntroductionJob rotation is a work organisation strategy used to reduce
work-related exposures and musculoskeletal complaints, yet evidence for
the efficacy of the approach is weak. Mismatch between job rotation and
company needs, lack of full implementation, lack of exposure variation
in included tasks and failure to assess variation may underlie
inconclusive research findings to date. The study aims to develop a job
rotation with company stakeholders, perform a process evaluation of the
implementation, and determine the extent to which the intervention
improves the physical and psychosocial work environment, indicators of
health, gender and social equality among workers and production quality
and resilience.Methods and analysisApproximately 60 production workers
at a Swedish commercial laundromat will be recruited. Physical and
psychosocial work environment conditions, health, productivity and
gender and social equality will be assessed pre and post intervention,
using surveys, accelerometers, heart rate, electromyography and focus
groups. A task-based exposure matrix will be constructed, and exposure
variation estimated at the level of the individual worker pre and post
intervention. An implementation process evaluation will be conducted.
Job rotation efficacy will be assessed in terms of improvement in work
environment conditions, health, gender and social inequality, and
production quality and resilience. This study will provide novel
information on the effects of the job rotation on physical and
psychosocial work environment conditions, production quality and rate,
health and gender and social inequality among blue-collar workers in a
highly multicultural workplace.Ethics and disseminationThe study
received approval from the Swedish Ethical Review Authority (reference
number 2019-00228). The results of the project will be shared directly
with the employees, managers and union representatives from the
participating company, other relevant labour market stakeholders and
with researchers at national and international conferences and via
scientific publication.Trial registration numberThe study is
preregistered with the Open Science Framework (https://osf.io/zmdc8/).},

Abstract = {Women have a lower BMI than men in developed countries, yet the opposite
is true in developing countries. We call this the gender BMI puzzle and
investigate its underlying cause. We begin by studying time trends in
Japan, where, consistent with the cross-country puzzle, the BMI of adult
women has steadily decreased since the 1950s, whereas the BMI of adult
men has steadily increased. We study how changes in energy intake and
energy expenditure account for the over-time gender BMI puzzle using the
Japanese National Nutrition Survey from 1975 to 2010, which provides
nurse-measured height and weight and nutritionist-assisted food records.
Because long-term data on energy expenditure do not exist, we calculate
energy expenditure using a steady-state body weight model. We then
conduct cross-country regression analysis to corroborate what we learn
from the Japanese data.
We find that both energy intake and energy expenditure have
significantly decreased for Japanese adult men and women and that a
larger reduction in energy expenditure among men than women accounts for
the increasing male-to-female BMI gap. Trends in BMI and energy
expenditure vary greatly by occupation, suggesting that a relatively
large decrease in physical activity in the workplace among men underlies
the gender BMI puzzle.
The cross-country analysis supports the generalizability of the findings
beyond the Japanese data. Furthermore, the analysis suggests the
increasing male-to-female BMI gap is driven not only by a reduction in
the energy requirements of physically demanding work but also by
weakening occupational gender segregation. No support is found for other
explanations, such as increasing female labor force participation,
greater female susceptibility to malnutrition in utero, and gender
inequality in nutrition in early life. (C) 2018 Elsevier B.V. All rights

Title = {THE SOCIO-POLITICAL AND MEDICAL ASPECTS OF ALCOHOL ABUSE AS A FACTOR OF
RISK CAUSING SOCIAL DISTRESS AMONG OLDER AGE GROUPS},
Journal = {JOURNAL OF SOCIAL POLICY STUDIES},
Year = {2018},
Volume = {16},
Number = {1},
Pages = {67-80},
Abstract = {The article analyses the role of alcohol consumption as a risk factor
increasing social disadvantage among older age groups. Firstly, the
problem of alcohol abuse among the elderly is considered with reference
to the major sociopolitical international and Russian documents. These
documents outline the key elements of state policies and the instruments
in use, which aim to keep a rapidly growing elderly population healthy,
thus reducing the burden on the health system and social security and
employment. Particular attention is paid here to the problem of
alcoholism among the elderly. Based on the results of empirical studies
of the lifestyles of 713 of people aged 60 to 89 in the Arkhangelsk
region, this paper offers an evaluation of the impact and consequences
of alcoholism, which can be viewed as a destabilizing mechanism in
social life settings. The main difficulties in that respondents
highlighted that, directly or indirectly, led to alcohol use were the
limitation of activities caused by the reduction or disability,
loneliness, inadequate social skills, social isolation, lack of physical
activity. Thus, consumption of alcohol can be understood as a
`withdrawal' from one's accumulated problems. Loneliness as a
manifestation of social exclusion is one of the most dangerous
stimulants towards alcohol use among the elderly, which can be seen as a
form of `doping'. The frequency with which alcoholic beverages are
consumed depends on gender and age characteristics, as well as education
level. Another important factor to be considered is the consequences of
the alcohol consumption of older persons as an important risk factor for
social disadvantage at the macro-, micro-social and personal levels. The
results obtained here update regional studies on the life quality of the
elderly population in the regions, revealing a high risk of alcoholic
consumption, as well as the development of social policies due to the
demographic development and the increase in the availability of medical
care for the elderly.},

Abstract = {Farm households diversify their income sources into off-farm wage
employment motivated by low farm income and availability of surplus
family labor, whereas they enter into off-farm self employment to earn
an attractive return. Farm households have upward-sloping, although
inelastic, off-farm labor supply curves. Therefore, increasing the
availability of off-farm activities and improving the wage rate received
by farm households can expand the economic activity of the Tigray
Regional State. Due to entry barriers, relatively wealthy farm
households may dominate the most lucrative rural non-farm activities
such as masonry, carpentry and petty trade. Hence the underlying factors
that hinder participation in non-farm activities such as credit
constraints and lack of skill may have to be addressed through the
provision of credit and technical training for the poor. (C) 2001

Abstract = {This paper highlights the role of community prevention in improving
overall health and in supporting health equity. By addressing the
underlying causes of illness and injury, community prevention efforts
can prevent illness and injury before they occur. The paper presents
three frameworks that support quality community prevention efforts. The
first, Taking Two Steps to Prevention, analyzes the underlying causes of
illness, injury and health inequities and helps identify key
opportunities for intervention and prevention. The second framework, the
Spectrum of Prevention, guides users in thinking through the elements of
a comprehensive community prevention strategy: strengthening individual
knowledge and skills; promoting community education; educating providers
and leaders (in all sectors); fostering coalitions and networks;
changing organizational practice (within government, health institutions
and workplaces, among others); and influencing policy and legislation.
Both Taking Two Steps and the Spectrum are explained through the
demonstration of two successful and ongoing community prevention
efforts: first, preventing smoking; and second, promoting breastfeeding.
The third framework, Collaboration Multiplier, focuses on developing
sustainable interdisciplinary partnerships capable of addressing a
variety of health and social problems. Collaboration Multiplier provides
a matrix that clarifies the contributions that different sectors bring
to a particular health or social problem and helps develop a shared
language and understanding for working together.},

LATIN AMERICA},
Series = {Routledge Studies in Development Economics},

Abstract = {Ecuador engaged in drastic economic reforms in the early 1990s. In the
decade that followed there is a tale of great economic and political
turmoil. In the process, the country's dependence on primary exports
(oil, shrimps and bananas) has not been reduced, while the economy is
likely to have become even more sensitive to terms-of-trade shocks
following its decision to adopt the dollar as official means of payments
thereby fully giving up independence of monetary policy. The early 1990s
began with fairly successful economic stabilization helped by debt
reduction under the Brady deal, use of the exchange rate as nominal
anchor and a rise in trade and capital inflows following import
liberalization and capital account opening. In the first half of the
1990s, modest growth was achieved and real wages were up fostering a
substantial decline in (urban) poverty. Things start to breakdown after
1995 following political turmoil and several external shocks. A
full-blown currency and financial crises emerged in 1999 as the domestic
currency could no longer be defended. A shift towards a flexible
exchange-rate regime and rise in interest rates did not evade, but
rather accelerated the banking crisis as it revealed the currency
mismatch and large share of bad debts in the system. Per capita income
fell by 9 per cent in 1 year and poverty increased substantially during
1998-9. The crisis eventually led to the decision to dollarize the
economy. Inflation hit at an unprecedented height in the first months
following dollarization, but the inflation rate has gradually
decelerated since and the economy has slowly recovered. Inflation has
been higher though than that of the major trading partners leading to an
appreciation of the hypothetical real exchange rate. Real wages have
been able to recover alongside the real appreciation alike in the early
1990s. Workers remittances have become a major new source of household
income following massive emigration after the economic crisis of 1999.
These factors have helped reduce (urban) poverty in 2001-2. Factors
associated with the structural reforms, however, seem to have pushed up
income inequality. This trend has been visible throughout the 1990s,
particularly due to a rise in skill-intensity of production in most
traded and non-traded goods sectors pushing up the wage gap between
skilled and unskilled workers. Employment growth has been as volatile as
aggregate output growth, but on balance more workers have been pushed in
the informal sector and a widening gap between formal and informal
sector workers has further contributed to rising inequality. These
trends may be associated to a large extent with the process of trade
liberalization in Ecuador as shown by the CGE simulations. The
simulation results indicate that the trade opening in Ecuador induced
mild aggregate welfare gains, but rising income inequality due to rising
wage differentials between skilled and unskilled workers implies that at
the end of the day trade liberalization had no poverty-reducing impact.
Scenarios of deepened trade integration, such as under the Free Trade
Agreement for the Americas and a WTO scenario of free trade and no
export subsidies only exacerbate these trends. Under the WTO scenario
rising inequality and unfavourable relative prices for agricultural
exports would even lead to a rise in poverty. To reap the benefits of
trade, Ecuador's stabilization and growth strategy should thus give
priority to investment in human and physical infrastructure to foster
productivity growth and reduce the shortage of skilled workers.},

Abstract = {South African legislation is viewed as progressive in relation to
persons with disabilities. Policies addressing socio-economic inequality
include a focus on promoting skills development and employment for
persons with disabilities. A predominant instrument for providing
post-school training and work opportunities to disadvantaged youth,
including persons with disabilities, is learnership programmes funded
through the Sector Education and Training Authorities (SETAs). Despite
enabling policies and investment in learnerships, persons with
disabilities comprise only 1.3\% of the workforce, while an estimated
15\% of the population are disabled. This situation opens up the skills
development strategy, and supporting legislation, for some critical
review. Using Critical Disability Studies as a lens, this paper offers
three critiques concerning the operation of learnerships for disability
inclusion in South Africa; (1) neglecting to align skills development
and market needs holds persons with disabilities in a cycle of training
and poverty; (2) focusing exclusively on providing hard skills fails to
account for complex challenges faced by persons with disabilities; and
(3) viewing skills development and inclusive employment as a charitable
endeavour fails to achieve social justice. This paper argues that the
planning and implementation of learnerships should respond to current
debates concerning holistic approaches to inclusive development.},

Title = {Family status and women's career mobility during urban China's economic
transition},
Journal = {DEMOGRAPHIC RESEARCH},
Year = {2021},
Volume = {44},
Pages = {189-224},
Month = {FEB 2},
Abstract = {BACKGROUND
In contrast to the historical experience of Western welfare states,
where social and family policies help create more integrated
public-private spheres, marketization in China has presented a case of
sphere separation. This phenomenon has important implications for the
dynamics of gender inequality in economic transition.
OBJECTIVE
This article examines how family status is associated with women's
career mobility in reform-era urban China and the impact of family on
women's career choices across different reform stages.
METHOD
Based on retrospective data from the Chinese General Social Survey
(CGSS) in 2008, we adopt discrete-time logit models to examine the
effects of marriage and childbearing on women's upward mobility, the
risk of labor market exit, and how the effects vary over time.
RESULTS
Chinese women in the workforce are adversely affected by marriage and
having dependent children. They are more likely than men to experience
(involuntary, in particular) job exit to fulfill their roles as wives
and mothers and less likely to move up in the career ladder. This
pattern is more prominent as the economic reform proceeds.
CONCLUSION
Marketization has adversely affected Chinese women's career outcomes by
increasing work-family tension after the work unit (danwei) system and
socialist programs that supported working women were scrapped.
CONTRIBUTION
This study is one of the few empirical studies to attempt to explain the
widening gender gap in China's job market from the perspective of family
using the two-sphere separation framework. The framework originated in
Western family studies but has been adapted to suit the context of urban
China},

Abstract = {During the past two generations, democratic forms have coexisted with
massive increases in economic inequality in the United States and many
other advanced democracies. Moreover, these new inequalities have
primarily benefited the top 1 percent and even the top .01 percent.
These groups seem sufficiently small that economic inequality could be
held in check by political equality in the form of ``one person, one
vote.{''} In this paper, we explore five possible reasons why the US
political system has failed to counterbalance rising inequality. First,
both Republicans and many Democrats have experienced an ideological
shift toward acceptance of a form of free market capitalism that offers
less support for government provision of transfers, lower marginal tax
rates for those with high incomes, and deregulation of a number of
industries. Second, immigration and low turnout of the poor have
combined to make the distribution of voters more weighted to high
incomes than is the distribution of households. Third, rising real
income and wealth has made a larger fraction of the population less
attracted to turning to government for social insurance. Fourth, the
rich have been able to use their resources to influence electoral,
legislative, and regulatory processes through campaign contributions,
lobbying, and revolving door employment of politicians and bureaucrats.
Fifth, the political process is distorted by institutions that reduce
the accountability of elected officials to the majority and hampered by
institutions that combine with political polarization to create policy
gridlock.},

Pages = {1734-1745},

Abstract = {Bangladesh, the eighth most populous country in the world with about 153
million people, has recently been applauded as an exceptional health
performer. In the first paper in this Series, we present evidence to
show that Bangladesh has achieved substantial health advances, but the
country's success cannot be captured simplistically because health in
Bangladesh has the paradox of steep and sustained reductions in birth
rate and mortality alongside continued burdens of morbidity. Exceptional
performance might be attributed to a pluralistic health system that has
many stakeholders pursuing women-centred, gender-equity-oriented, highly
focused health programmes in family planning, immunisation, oral
rehydration therapy, maternal and child health, tuberculosis, vitamin A
supplementation, and other activities, through the work of widely
deployed community health workers reaching all households. Government
and non-governmental organisations have pioneered many innovations that
have been scaled up nationally. However, these remarkable achievements
in equity and coverage are counterbalanced by the persistence of child
and maternal malnutrition and the low use of maternity-related services.
The Bangladesh paradox shows the net outcome of successful direct health
action in both positive and negative social determinants of health-ie,
positives such as women's empowerment, widespread education, and
mitigation of the effect of natural disasters; and negatives such as low
gross domestic product, pervasive poverty, and the persistence of income
inequality. Bangladesh offers lessons such as how gender equity can
improve health outcomes, how health innovations can be scaled up, and
how direct health interventions can partly overcome socioeconomic
constraints.},

Abstract = {Racial/ethnic minority persons constitute approximately 25-30\% of the
United States population with an estimation of Hispanics at 12.5\%,
Blacks at 12.3\%, Asian and Pacific Islanders at 3.7\% and American
Indians at 0.9\%. U. S. Schools will also undergo demographic shifts.
Currently, nearly 33\% of all children under age 18 are children of
color. By 2000, persons with disabilities made up one of the largest
minority groups in the Uniteds States, with more than 49.7 million
persons (or nearly 20\% Americans) reporting significant disabilities.
Persons with disabilities constitute the largest minority group in the
United States. Disability rates have escalated more in the minority
population: The disability rates for Native American and African
Americans (each at 24.3\%), Native Hawaiians and other Pacific Islanders
(20\%) and Whites (19.7\%) while those of Hispanic origin have a
significantly lower rate (15.3\%). Racial/ethnic minority persons with
disabilities often face attitudinal, physical and social barriers that
inhibit full participation in society. A substantial number of diverse
individuals are unemployed and underemployed and have not been given
full opportunity to express their skills in the labor market. Persons
with dual or triple minority status (i.e., considering gender, race and
disability) may experience unique problems and barriers in school,
employment and social settings. Despite historical and current
disability legislation (i.e., Americans with Disability Act) barriers
continue to exist. Racial/ethnic minority persons with disabilities are
more at risk, have fewer personal and family resources, and fare less
well socioeconomically than minorities without disabilities. Many lack
pertinent knowledge relevant to health care, childcare education,
housing and employment resources. Rehabilitation professionals and
services providers must be cognizant of various strategies and support
services needed to improve the quality of life for ethnic minority
persons with disabilities. There is a tremendous need for
community-based collaboration to empower the community and optimize
rehabilitation service delivery systems including the following:
Provision of culturally competent services, utilization of health
promotion tools, inclusion of family and community members in health
care decision making and location of resources, expanding hours of
operation, provision of linguistic services, and utilizing natural
supports in the workplace and community. The challenge requires a
commitment to reduce barriers and improve the quality of life for
racial/ethnic minority persons with disabilities to ensure justice,
equal access and employment for all citizens.},

Title = {Observing Inequality: Can Ergonomic Observations Help Interventions
Transform the Role of Gender in Work Activity?},

Abstract = {Work activity ergonomics (sometimes called francophone ergonomics) draws
heavily on observation in order to support transformation of work to
arrive at better health without interfering with productivity. Recently,
ergonomists have attempted to integrate gender into their interventions.
At the same time, ergonomists have been observing and documenting the
importance of considering collective dimensions of work, thus including
the construction of social relations among workers. Gender as well as
biological sex can affect work activity through (1) Gendered job and
task assignments; (2) Biological differences between women and men
influencing the interface between work activity and the physical
environment; (3) Gendered human relations at work, including sexual
stereotyping, sexism, sexual harrassment, and sexual relations among
workers and between workers and management or clients; (4)
Manifestations of work-family articulation. But actually observing these
phenomena poses various difficulties for the ergonomist. How can/should
gender be observed by ergonomists? We describe a set of twenty studies,
undertaken by ergonomists in collaboration with trade union women's
committees and health and safety committees, where observations were
central. We describe in particular detail a study of work-family
articulation. Participant and ergonomic observations of workers with
highly invasive schedules assigned to cleaning transportation equipment,
and relational analysis tools were mobilized to reveal determinants of
work activity and some sources of social inequalities. Integrating
observations of gender and other dimensions of social relations into
ergonomic analysis and intervention is revealed as necessary, but not
simple, and fraught with obstacles.},

barriers and personal resources in the participation of people with
chronic physical disabilities},
Journal = {SOCIAL SCIENCE \& MEDICINE},
Year = {2009},
Volume = {69},
Number = {1},
Pages = {56-60},
Month = {JUL},
Abstract = {People with chronic physical disabilities participate less in both paid
and voluntary work and are less satisfied with their lives than people
without health problems. Governments and scientists have suggested that
participation in employment is the main road to well-being. We analysed
national survey data on the participation in work and satisfaction with
life, comparing people with a chronic illness and a physical disability
(n = 603) to people with a chronic illness but without a physical
disability (n = 1199) and the general population (n = 6128) in the
Netherlands. The results show that the relationship between happiness
and work is different for people with a chronic illness and a physical
disability, as compared to the other two populations. Fewer people with
a chronic illness and disability were categorized as `satisfied people
with work' (i.e. participating in work and satisfied with their life),
while most people belonged to a group of `satisfied people without work'
and, surprisingly, not to the expected group of `dissatisfied people
without work'. In order to explain this exceptional distribution we
modelled satisfied participation in work as an outcome of a balance
between personal resources and barriers. By means of discriminant
regression analysis, we identified the severity of motor disability as
the main barrier, and education level and age, as the main resource
factors that distinguish between `satisfied people with work' and others
among the group of people with a chronic illness and a physical
disability. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.},

Title = {Equity in the public social healthcare protection in Tanzania: does it
matter on household healthcare financing?},
Journal = {INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL FOR EQUITY IN HEALTH},
Year = {2023},
Volume = {22},
Number = {1},
Month = {MAR 20},
Abstract = {Efforts to promote equity in healthcare involve implementing policies
and programs that address the root causes of healthcare disparities and
promote equal access to care. One such program is the public social
healthcare protection schemes. However, like many other developing
countries, Tanzania has low health insurance coverage, hindering its
efforts to achieve universal health coverage. This study examines the
role of equity in public social healthcare protection and its effects on
household healthcare financing in Tanzania. The study used secondary
data collected from the National Bureau of Statistics' National Panel
Survey 2020/21 and stratified households based on their place of
residence (rural vs. urban). Moreover, the logit regression model,
ordered logit, and the endogenous switching regression model were used
to provide counterfactual estimates without selection bias and
endogeneity problems. The results showed greater variations in social
health protection across rural and urban households, increasing
disparities in health outcomes between these areas. Rural residents are
the most vulnerable groups. Furthermore, education, income, and direct
healthcare costs significantly influence equity in healthcare financing
and the ability of households to benefit from public social healthcare
protection schemes. To achieve equity in healthcare in rural and urban
areas, developing countries need to increase investment in health sector
by reducing the cost of healthcare, which will significantly reduce
household healthcare financing. Furthermore, the study recommends that
social health protection is an essential strategy for improving fair
access to quality healthcare by removing differences across households
and promoting equality in utilizing healthcare services.},

Abstract = {This paper examines the digital divides for women in rural areas within
the Information Society, referring particularly to the Galician
experience (Autonomous Region in the North West of Spain). In order to
explore the barriers to social and labor exclusion it was elaborated a
survey relating with the use and impact of ITC in social and labor
experiences of rural women. The results showed that rural women are
aware of the key role played for ITC on their way to achieve the
participation on decision making process as well as in social life and
labor. The main barriers to the Internet penetration in women social
life were employment, education and income. From an individual point of
view, the existence of non-users was explained by a combination of
access problems, lack of ICT skills or rather negative attitudes towards
ITC. Finally, a bunch of policy recommendations is proposed focus on
providing better Internet access in rural areas and to sensitize the
population, particularly the oldest, about the importance of gender
equality in access to technology in order to avoid digital barriers for
rural women and reduce social exclusion of this group. (C) 2013 Elsevier

Abstract = {A major public policy problem is the extremely low labor force
participation of people with severe mental illness coupled with their
overrepresentation on the public disability rolls. This situation is
especially troubling given the existence of evidence-based practices
designed to return them to the labor force. This article reviews
research from the fields of disability, economics, health care, and
labor studies to describe the nature of barriers to paid work and
economic security for people with disabling mental disorders. These
barriers include low educational attainment, unfavorable labor market
dynamics, low productivity, lack of appropriate vocational and clinical
services, labor force discrimination, failure of protective legislation,
work disincentives caused by state and federal policies, poverty-level
income, linkage of health care access to disability beneficiary status,
and ineffective work incentive programs. The article concludes with a
discussion of current policy initiatives in health care, mental health,
and disability. Recommendations for a comprehensive system of services
and supports to address multiple barriers are presented. These include
access to affordable health care, including mental health treatment and
prescription drug coverage; integrated clinical and vocational services;
safe and stable housing that is not threatened by changes in earned
income; remedial and post-secondary education and vocational training;
benefits counseling and financial literacy education; economic security
through asset development; legal aid for dealing with employment
discrimination; peer support and self-help to enhance vocational
self-image and encourage labor force attachment; and active involvement
of U.S. business and employer communities.},

Journal = {ANAESTHESIA AND INTENSIVE CARE},
Year = {2020},
Volume = {48},

Month = {NOV},
Abstract = {Gender inequity persists within the anaesthetic workforce, despite
approaching numerical parity in Australia and New Zealand. There is
evidence, from anaesthesia and the wider health workforce, that domestic
gender norms regarding parental responsibilities contribute to this. The
creation of `family-friendly' workplaces may be useful in driving
change, a concept reflected in the gender equity action plan developed
by the Australian and New Zealand College of Anaesthetists. This study
aimed to explore the extent to which a family-friendly culture exists
within anaesthesia training in New Zealand, from the perspective of
leaders in anaesthesia departments. An electronic survey composed of
quantitative and qualitative questions was emailed to all supervisors of
training, rotational supervisors and departmental directors at
Australian and New Zealand College of Anaesthetists accredited training
hospitals in New Zealand. Twenty-eight of the 71 eligible participants
responded (response rate 39\%). The majority (61\%) agreed with the
statement `our department has a ``family friendly{''} approach to
anaesthesia trainees'; however, there was a discrepancy between views
about how departments should be and how they actually are. Several
barriers contributing to this discrepancy were identified, including
workforce logistics, governance, departmental structures and attitudes.
Uncertainty in responses regarding aspects of working hours, parental
leave and the use of domestic sick leave reflect gaps in understanding,
with scope for further enquiry and education. To redress gender bias
seriously through the development of family-friendly policies and
practices requires supportive governance and logistics, along with some
cultural change.},

Journal = {HARVARD BUSINESS REVIEW},
Year = {1995},
Volume = {73},
Number = {3},
Pages = {55-71},
Month = {MAY-JUN},
Abstract = {The economic distress of America's inner cities may be the most pressing
issue facing the nation. The lack of businesses and jobs in
disadvantaged urban areas fuels not only a crushing cycle of poverty but
also crippling social problems such as drug abuse and crime. And, as
inner cities continue to deteriorate, the debate on how to aid them
grows increasingly divisive.
The sad reality is that the efforts of the past several decades to
revitalize inner cities have failed. The establishment of a sustainable
economic base and - with it employment opportunities, wealth creation,
role models, and improved local intrastructure - still eludes us despite
the investment of substantial resources.
The time has come to recognize that revitalizing the inner cities will
require a radically new approach. While social programs will continue to
play a critical role in meeting human needs and improving education,
they must support - and not undermine - a coherent economic strategy.
The question we should be asking is how inner-city-based businesses and
nearby employment opportunities for inner city residents can proliferate
and grow. A sustainable economic base can be created in the inner city,
but only as it has been created elsewhere: through private, for-profit
initiatives and investment based on economic self-interest and genuine
competitive advantage.
An economic model must begin with the premise that inner city businesses
must be profitable and positioned to compete on a regional, national,
and even international scale. Our policies and programs have fallen into
the trap of redistributing wealth. The real need - as well as the real
opportunity - is to create wealth.},

between social class and social security among the rural migrant workers
in urban China},
Journal = {INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL FOR EQUITY IN HEALTH},
Year = {2017},
Volume = {16},
Month = {NOV 7},
Abstract = {Background: The rampant urbanization and medical marketization in China
have resulted in increased vulnerabilities to health and socioeconomic
disparities among the rural migrant workers in urban China. In the
Chinese context, the socioeconomic characteristics of rural migrant
workers have attracted considerable research attention in the recent
past years. However, to date, no previous studies have explored the
association between the socioeconomic factors and social security among
the rural migrant workers in urban China. This study aims to explore the
association between socioeconomic inequity and social security inequity
and the subsequent associations with medical inequity and reimbursement
rejection.
Methods: Data from a regionally representative sample of 2009 Survey of
Migrant Workers in Pearl River Delta in China were used for analyses.
Multiple logistic regressions were used to analyze the impacts of
socioeconomic factors on the eight dimensions of social security (sick
pay, paid leave, maternity pay, medical insurance, pension insurance,
occupational injury insurance, unemployment insurance, and maternity
insurance) and the impacts of social security on medical reimbursement
rejection. The zero-inflated negative binomial regression model (ZINB
regression) was adopted to explore the relationship between
socioeconomic factors and hospital visits among the rural migrant
workers with social security.
Results: The study population consisted of 848 rural migrant workers
with high income who were young and middle-aged, low-educated, and
covered by social security. Reimbursement rejection and abusive
supervision for the rural migrant workers were observed. Logistic
regression analysis showed that there were significant associations
between socioeconomic factors and social security. ZINB regression
showed that there were significant associations between socioeconomic
factors and hospital visits among the rural migrant workers. Also,
several dimensions of social security had significant associations with
reimbursement rejections.
Conclusions: This study showed that social security inequity, medical
inequity, and reimbursement inequity happened to the rural migrant
workers simultaneously. Future policy should strengthen health justice
and enterprises' medical responsibilities to the employed rural migrant
workers.},

analysis: (a) knowledge and awareness about breast cancer, (b) personal
factors, and (c) medical service provider and social environment.
Conclusions: Focus groups conducted in line with HBM and HPM were
effective in explaining barriers and facilitators toward participation
of women in screening behaviors. Lack of information, indifference, and
cultural factors are the most important barriers of women.
Recommendations for Practice: The study will shed light on health care
professionals working in primary health care organizations for

Journal = {FRONTIERS IN PSYCHOLOGY},
Year = {2023},
Volume = {14},
Month = {APR 25},
Abstract = {In recent decades, there has been a massive incorporation of women into
the labor market. However, the belief that certain jobs or business
functions can be performed better by people of one gender than the other
has not allowed for widespread changes in the business culture to
achieve effective equality between women and men in companies. Examples
of this are unequal access to employment, vertical and horizontal
segregation in occupations, wage discrimination, problems in reconciling
personal and professional life, or difficulties in accessing management
positions in companies (glass ceiling). Other determinants of gender
inequalities have been long working hours, as well as the presence of
employees, characteristic of European business culture. The progress
achieved to date began with the incorporation of women into the labor
market under unequal conditions that soon called for the need to
establish a regulatory framework to try to eradicate them. The legal
status of women in Europe has undoubtedly improved as a result of the
development of European regulations, which have been binding in the
development of business policies in the Member States and have succeeded
in modifying the organizational climate through proposals such as the
development of Equality Plans or salary audits. Examples of the most
recent legislative initiatives of the European Union on equality that
affect business practices are Directive 2022/2041/EC on adequate minimum
wages in the European Union or Directive 2022/2381/EC on a better gender
balance among directors of listed companies. This study attempts to
systematize the changes in the legislation on effective equality between
men and women in business and to analyze its effect on organizational
culture through the information available in the statistics on gender
equality-mainly from the European Union-which gather quantitative and
qualitative information on the adaptation of business culture to the new
legal framework and the overcoming of gender stereotypes that have been
guiding business management in the last decade.},

Abstract = {The congenital heart care community faces a myriad of public health
issues that act as barriers toward optimum patient outcomes. In this
article, we attempt to define advocacy and policy initiatives meant to
spotlight and potentially address these challenges. Issues are organized
into the following 3 key facets of our community: patient population,
health care delivery, and workforce. We discuss the social determinants
of health and health care disparities that affect patients in the
community that require the attention of policy makers. Furthermore, we
highlight the many needs of the growing adults with congenital heart
disease and those with comorbidities, highlighting concerns regarding
the inequities in access to cardiac care and the need for
multidisciplinary care. We also recognize the problems of transparency
in outcomes reporting and the promising application of telehealth.
Finally, we highlight the training of providers, measures of
productivity, diversity in the workforce, and the importance of
patient-family centered organizations in advocating for patients.
Although all of these issues remain relevant to many subspecialties in
medicine, this article attempts to illustrate the unique needs of this
population and highlight ways in which to work together to address
important opportunities for change in the cardiac care community and
beyond. This article provides a framework for policy and advocacy
efforts for the next decade.},

Title = {Is the quality of primary healthcare services influenced by the
healthcare centre's type of ownership?-An observational study of patient
perceived quality, prescription rates and follow-up routines in
privately and publicly owned primary care centres},
Journal = {BMC HEALTH SERVICES RESEARCH},
Year = {2015},
Volume = {15},
Month = {SEP 26},
Abstract = {Background: Primary healthcare in Sweden has undergone comprehensive
reforms, including freedom of choice regarding provider, freedom of
establishment and increased privatisation aiming to meet demands for
quality and availability. In this system privately and publicly owned
primary care centres with different business models (for-profit vs
non-profit) coexist and compete for patients, which makes it important
to study whether or not the type of ownership influences the quality of
the primary healthcare services.
Methods: In this retrospective observational study (April 2011 to
January 2014) the patient perceived quality, the use of antibiotics and
benzodiazepine derivatives, and the follow-up routines of certain
chronic diseases were analysed for all primary care centres in Region
Vastra Gotaland. The outcome measures were compared on a group level
between privately owned (n = 86) and publicly owned (n = 114) primary
care centres (PCC).
Results: In comparison with the group of publicly owned PCCs, the group
of privately owned PCCs were characterized by: a smaller, but
continuously growing share of the population served (from 32 to 36 \%);
smaller PCC population sizes (avg. 5932 vs. 9432 individuals); a higher
fraction of PCCs located in urban areas (57 \% vs 35 \%); a higher
fraction of listed citizens in working age (62 \% vs. 56 \%) and
belonging to the second most affluent socioeconomic quintile (26 \% vs.
14 \%); higher perceived patient quality (82.4 vs. 79.6 points); higher
use of antibiotics (6.0 vs. 5.1 prescriptions per 100 individuals in a
quarter); lower use of benzodiazepines (DDD per 100 patients/month) for
20-74 year olds (278 vs. 306) and >74 year olds (1744 vs. 1791); lower
rates for follow-ups of chronic diseases (71.2 \% vs 74.6 \%). While
antibiotic use decreased, the use of benzodiazepines increased for both
groups over time.
Conclusions: The findings of this study cannot unambiguously answer the
question of whether or not the quality is influenced by the healthcare
centre's type of ownership. It can be questioned whether the reform
created conditions that encouraged quality improvements. Tendencies of
an (unintended) unequal distribution of the population between the two
groups with disparities in age, socio-economy and geography might lead
to unpredictable effects. Further studies are necessary for
evidence-informed policy-making.},

Title = {A Systematic Review of Workplace-Based Employee Health Interventions and
Their Impact on Sleep Duration Among Shift Workers},
Journal = {WORKPLACE HEALTH \& SAFETY},
Year = {2021},
Volume = {69},
Number = {11},
Pages = {525-539},
Month = {NOV},
Abstract = {Background: Shift work is associated with long-term health risks.
Workplace-based health interventions hold promise for improving or
maintaining the health of shift workers; yet, the impact of
workplace-based interventions on shift worker sleep duration has not
been assessed. We conducted a systematic review of workplace
interventions on shift worker sleep. Methods: We conducted searches in
PubMed, Web of Knowledge, EMBASE, Scopus, and PsycINFO (n = 6,868
records) of all studies published through May 15, 2019. Eligibility
criteria included the following: (a) individuals aged >= 18 years; (b) a
workplace-based employee intervention; (c) an employee population
comprised predominantly of shift workers (>50\%); and (d) sleep duration
as a study outcome. Findings: Twenty workplace interventions met
eligibility criteria. Mean intervention duration was 125 (SD = 187) days
and mean sample size was 116 employees (SD = 256) with a mean age of
36.4 years (SD = 6.5). Interventions most commonly focused on light
exposure (25\%) or shift timing (25\%), followed by sleep hygiene
(20\%). Most interventions were conducted in the health care and social
assistance sector (60\%). Study quality on average was 64\% (SD = 7\%).
A majority of the studies found that a workplace-based health
intervention was associated with a desirable increase in 24-hour total
sleep duration (55\%). The overall average increase in daily employee
sleep duration achieved by interventions ranged for RCT studies from
0.34 to 0.99 hours and for non-RCT studies from 0.02 to 1.15 hours.
Conclusions/Applications to Practice: More than half of the employee
health interventions, especially yoga or mindfulness interventions,
resulted in a desirable increase in sleep duration. Workplaces hold
promise as an avenue? for delivering programs and policies that aim to
improve sleep duration among shift workers.},

Title = {The impacts of COVID-19 on LGBTQ+ foster youth alumni{*}},
Journal = {CHILD ABUSE \& NEGLECT},
Year = {2022},
Volume = {133},
Month = {NOV},
Abstract = {Background: LGBTQ+ youth frequently experience disparities in outcomes
related to permanency and overall well-being while in out-of-home care.
These negative outcomes often persist after youth have transitioned out
of care, particularly in the domains of housing, education, employment,
and mental health. Initial research has found that the ongoing COVID-19
pandemic has exacerbated negative physical and mental health outcomes,
as well as decreased economic stability among transition age youth.
Objective: This study seeks to determine if COVID-19 has resulted in
unique impacts on foster care alumni, and if these impacts are the same
for LGBTQ+ and non-LGBTQ+ transition age youth. Participants and
Setting. This study used data from the 2020 Jim Casey Youth
Opportunities Initiative Opportunity Passport Survey to explore these
questions. Methods: This survey was administered electronically to a
national sample of 1223 youth ages 18-26 with lived experience in foster
care. Results: Results indicate that relative to non-LGBTQ+ foster care
alumni, LGBTQ+ foster care alumni experienced more negative outcomes in
housing stability, employment, and mental health/trauma due to COVID-19.
No significant differences were found for education-related impacts.
Outcomes varied by sex assigned at birth, ethnicity, and sexual
orientation, gender identity and expression (SOGIE) of respondents, with
female respondents, black, indigenous and other people of color (BIPOC)
youth and LGBTQ+ youth being most frequently impacted. Conclusions:

Title = {``Men Are in Front at Eating Time, but Not When It Comes to Rearing the

Ownership in Kenya},
Journal = {FOOD AND NUTRITION BULLETIN},
Year = {2018},
Volume = {39},
Number = {1, SI},
Pages = {3-27},
Month = {MAR},
Abstract = {Background: Livestock can promote resilience in low-income communities
through a number of pathways. Livestock development programs seek to
amplify these benefits but often fail to consider the costs to intended
beneficiaries or the effect of prevailing gender norms.
Objective: To explore perceptions of livestock ownership among female
smallholder livestock keepers in Nyanza Region, Kenya, and unpack how
the distribution of livestock benefits and investments varies by gender
within households.
Methods: We used multiple ethnographic techniques, including Photovoice,
a photo-elicitation interview method, focus group discussions, and pile
sorts, with female smallholder livestock owners (n = 18) participating
in an ongoing cohort study. Transcripts were coded using a combination
of a priori constructs and grounded theory.
Results: We found that livestock benefited households by providing
financial security, food security, social benefits, and human time and
labor savings. However, these benefits largely promoted long-term
household resilience rather than immediate gains. Livestock ownership
also had major costs to household time and labor, which were
overwhelmingly borne by women and children. Despite this investment,
women had limited livestock ownership rights, decision-making power,
control over income, or access to meat.
Conclusions: Our findings suggest that livestock ownership requires
significant investments of household time and labor, which
disproportionately burden women. Prevailing gender inequalities may
therefore constrain the net benefit of livestock ownership for many
women and their households in some contexts. Livestock development
programs must assess both program benefits and costs at multiple levels
to ensure that women's participation in livestock production leads to
improved individual and household outcomes.},

Abstract = {Objectives: We investigate associations between adverse employment
histories over an extended time period and health functioning in later
life, and explore whether national labor market policies moderate the
association.
Methods: We use harmonized life-history data from the Gateway to Global
Aging Data on two European studies (SHARE and ELSA) linked to health
beyond age 50 (men = 11,621; women = 10,999). Adverse employment
histories consist of precarious, discontinued, and disadvantaged careers
between age 25 and 50, and we use depressive symptoms, grip strength,
and verbal memory as outcomes.
Results: Adverse employment histories between age 25 and 50 are
associated with poor health functioning later in life, particularly
repeated periods of unemployment, involuntary job losses, weak labor
market ties, and disadvantaged occupational positions. Associations
remain consistent after adjusting for age, partnership history,
education and employment situation, and after excluding those with poor
health prior to or during working life. We find no variations of the
associations by national labor market policies.
Discussion: Our study calls for increased intervention efforts to
improve working conditions at early career stages. Despite the
importance in shaping employment histories, the role of national
policies in modifying the impact of employment on health is less clear.},

Title = {Longitudinal Effects of Transportation Vulnerability on the Association
Between Racial/Ethnic Segregation and Youth Cardiovascular Health},
Journal = {JOURNAL OF RACIAL AND ETHNIC HEALTH DISPARITIES},
Year = {2021},
Volume = {8},
Number = {3},
Pages = {618-629},
Month = {JUN},
Abstract = {Background Transportation vulnerability (defined as lack of
personal/public transportation access) is particularly prevalent in
areas with high racial/ethnic segregation where communities typically
lack proximity to quality education, jobs, healthy food, playgrounds,
and medical care. Prior research has shown an association between
residential segregation and youth cardiovascular health, although little
work has examined the effects of transportation vulnerability on this
relationship. Methods Longitudinal mixed methods were used to compare
the effects of transportation vulnerability on the association between
changes in exposure to residential segregation (defined as the uneven
geographic distribution of minorities) and five cardiovascular health
outcomes across sex in minority youth for up to four consecutive years
of participation in an afterschool fitness program during 2010-2018 (n =
2742; Miami-Dade County, Florida, US). Results After accounting for
child race/ethnicity, age, year, and poverty, girls with high
transportation vulnerability and reduced exposure to segregation (vs.
increased or no change in segregation) showed the most improvements
across all outcomes, including body mass index percentile (26\% (95\% CI
23.84, 28.30)), sum of skinfold thicknesses (18\% (95\% CI 14.90,
20.46)), run time (17\% (95\% CI 14.88, 18.64)), systolic blood pressure
percentile (15\% (95\% CI 11.96, 17.08)), and diastolic blood pressure
percentile (12\% (95\% CI 9.09, 14.61)). Conclusion Transportation
inequities related to concentrated racial/ethnic segregation may be an
important factor in reducing disparities in youth cardiovascular health,
particularly among girls. These study findings provide important
longitudinal evidence in support of health interventions to reduce
transportation vulnerability for racial/ethnic minority youth in
underserved areas.},

Abstract = {European Union gender equality policies have been increasingly
interested in benchmarking and promoting higher representation of women
in non-elected positions of power. While former Slovak government
(2016-2020) achieved the highest proportion of women in ministerial
positions as yet, according to EIGE's Gender Equality Index, Slovakia
still occupies lower tiers of the index with respect to ``women in

does not answer questions concerning career trajectories and
gender-based barriers, which may be experienced by women at Slovak
ministries, let alone how these may be changing when the share of women
in leading positions increases. The following study is inspired by the
concepts of descriptive and substantial representation as it adopts the
analytical approach of gender regimes in organizations to study formal
and informal norms of gendered organizations. Results show that greater
representation of women in leading positions moves the gender regime
closer to one that favourable to women. However, the Slovak case study
suggests, that even dominant or balanced representation of women in
positions of power does not eliminate experiences with discrimination or
gender stereotyping.},

Abstract = {Few data are available on patient navigators (PNs) across diverse roles
and organizational settings that could inform optimization of patient
navigation models for cancer prevention. The National Breast and
Cervical Cancer Early Detection Program (NBCCEDP) and the Colorectal
Cancer and Control Program (CRCCP) are two federally-funded screening
programs that support clinical- and community-based PNs who serve
low-income and un- or underinsured populations across the United States.
An online survey assessing PN characteristics, delivered activities, and
patient barriers to screening was completed by 437 of 1002 identified
PNs (44\%). Responding PNs were racially and ethnically diverse, had
varied professional backgrounds and practice-settings, worked with
diverse populations, and were located within rural and urban/suburban
locations across the U.S. More PNs reported working to promote screening
for breast/cervical cancers (BCC, 94\%) compared to colorectal cancer
(CRC, 39\%). BCC and CRC PNs reported similar frequencies of individual-
(e.g., knowledge, motivation, fear) and community-level patient barriers
(e.g., beliefs about healthcare and screening). Despite reporting
significant patient structural barriers (e.g., transportation, work and

navigation activities (e.g., education, appointment reminders). PN
training to identify and champion timely and patient-centered
adjustments to organizational policies, practices, and norms of the

research is needed to determine whether multilevel interventions that
support this approach could reduce structural barriers and increase

served by these two important cancer-screening programs.},

Title = {The Proportion of Female Physician Links With Advanced Educational
Opportunity for Female and by Female},
Journal = {INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF HEALTH POLICY AND MANAGEMENT},
Year = {2020},
Volume = {9},
Number = {9},
Pages = {411-412},
Month = {SEP},
Abstract = {Background: The overall proportion of female physician is increasing
worldwide. However, its ratio exhibits a substantial diversity among
each member country of Organisation for Economic Co-operation and
Development (OECD). This study aimed to reveal the social factors of
countries associated with the percentage of female physicians.
Methods: We retrieved the percentage of female physicians and social
characteristic which may affect the ratio of female physicians of 36
OECD countries in 2016 or nearest year from the World Bank Open Data.
Multivariate regression analysis was performed after univariate
evaluations with Spearman's coefficient to explore correlation of social
variables with the proportion of female physicians.
Results: The percentages of female adolescents who dropped out of school
before lower secondary school, female population that attained or
completed Master's or equivalent degree, female labour force, and female
academic staff in tertiary education showed statistically significant
correlation with proportion of female physicians (Spearman coefficient
=-0.527, 0.585, 0.501, and 0.499; P = .01, .001, .002, and .008).
Female's educational attainment at least Master's or equivalent and that
of female academic staff at tertiary education were selected after
multivariate analysis.
Conclusion: Our study revealed the relationships between advanced
education opportunity and female participation in academic positions
with the percentage of female physicians. Our research is limited in the
difficulty to evaluate physicians' working hours in spite of its
possible effect. Further studies with qualitative assessment are
warranted to explore the detail reasons to cause gender gap in

Abstract = {This paper considers whether or not in Tanzania, ethnicity conditions
access to health and nutrition during childhood and adolescence. We
estimate height-augmented Mincerian earnings functions with data from

parameter estimates reveal that when the effects of unobserved
investments in health and nutrition during childhood and adolescence on
adult height are accounted for, the labor market return on height varies
across ethnic groups in our sample. This suggests that in Tanzania
ethnicity is a constraint on effective health care policy as there is
ethnic discrimination in the provision of health and nutrition
investment during childhood and adolescence that constrains adult
height, living standards and economic growth. As such, public health
policy in sub-Saharan Africa could potentially be more effective through
reforms that eliminate any ethnic bias in the provision of health
capital during childhood/adolescence.},

Title = {Health systems analysis of eye care services in Zambia: evaluating
progress towards VISION 2020 goals},
Journal = {BMC HEALTH SERVICES RESEARCH},
Year = {2014},
Volume = {14},
Month = {FEB 28},
Abstract = {Background: VISION 2020 is a global initiative launched in 1999 to
eliminate avoidable blindness by 2020. The objective of this study was
to undertake a situation analysis of the Zambian eye health system and
assess VISION 2020 process indicators on human resources, equipment and
infrastructure.
Methods: All eye health care providers were surveyed to determine
location, financing sources, human resources and equipment. Key
informants were interviewed regarding levels of service provision,
management and leadership in the sector. Policy papers were reviewed. A
health system dynamics framework was used to analyse findings.
Results: During 2011, 74 facilities provided eye care in Zambia; 39\%
were public, 37\% private for-profit and 24\% owned by Non-Governmental
Organizations. Private facilities were solely located in major cities. A
total of 191 people worked in eye care; 18 of these were
ophthalmologists and eight cataract surgeons, equivalent to 0.34 and
0.15 per 250,000 population, respectively. VISION 2020 targets for
inpatient beds and surgical theatres were met in six out of nine
provinces, but human resources and spectacles manufacturing workshops
were below target in every province. Inequalities in service provision
between urban and rural areas were substantial.
Conclusion: Shortage and maldistribution of human resources, lack of
routine monitoring and inadequate financing mechanisms are the root
causes of underperformance in the Zambian eye health system, which
hinder the ability to achieve the VISION 2020 goals. We recommend that
all VISION 2020 process indicators are evaluated simultaneously as these
are not individually useful for monitoring progress.},

Volume = {58},

Abstract = {This article evaluates the influence of local district conditions on
subjective quality of life of older South African adults. Policymakers
increasingly recognize that ``successful{''} aging policies must not
only address physical health needs but also factors that influence
subjective well-being.
To investigate the influence of area-level distribution of ``public
goods{''} on well-being in a low- and middle-income setting, nationally
representative WHO-Study of Global AGEing and Adult Health (WHO-SAGE)
survey data is combined with district-level data that captures built
resources and health system distribution. Multilevel regression modeling
is utilized to explore how community context, including built resources
and health infrastructure quality, influence older persons' quality of
life and how chronic health conditions may moderate this relationship
while controlling for important individual characteristics.
While controlling for individual and district level factors, it is found
community level provision of built resources of basic services (i.e.,
water, sanitation, electricity, housing) has a modest but significant
impact on older persons' subjective well-being. Further, this effect on
older persons' perceptions of quality of life is moderated by individual
chronic health status; individuals with a chronic health condition do
not receive an equivalent benefit from district built condition like
those without an illness do.
This work adds to the literature concerning the effect of environments
in low- and middle-income countries on older adults' subjective
well-being. It also adds to the growing literature on the complex
relationship between subjective well-being and health in diverse
contexts.},

Abstract = {Introduction. Legislative consolidation of a right is not always
implemented in practice. This can be fully attributed to the situation
in the sphere of equality of people of different sexes in the economy,
including the sphere of public administration. The purpose of the
article is to assess the status of women in the economy of modern
Russia, based on the study of official statistics, as well as the
possibility of women's participation in solving key problems of the
development of society through representation in public authorities at
different levels of government.
Materials and Methods. The author analyzed data from Russian Federal
State Statistics Service, publications of scientists involved in the
study of the issue concerned, as well as materials from authoritative
international organizations. The systemic approach, analysis and
synthesis, the monographic method, content analysis, as well as the
employed methods of economic and statistical analysis made it possible
to identify the main trends in the changing status of women in the
Russian labor market and public authorities at different levels of
government.
Results. The status of women in the Russian labor market and public
authorities at the federal, regional and municipal levels has been
characterized. Violation of the rights of women has been established in
terms of remuneration when filling the same positions as men with equal
amount of working time. It has been revealed that the representation of
women in the highest bodies of state power lags behind the benchmark
level of 30 \%, proclaimed by the Fourth World Conference on Women in
Beijing and supported by the Russian Federation.
Discussion and Conclusion. A conclusion has been drawn that women are
underrepresented in senior government positions in the Russian
Federation. In the Russian labor market, violation of women's rights is
manifested in lower wages, despite higher overall level of education of
women. The results may prove useful when conducting research in the
field of gender equality, as well as when developing and implementing
measures aimed at improving the status of women in the country's economy
and ensuring their right to participate in making decisions important
for the society.},

entering Israel at a young age were able not only to accumulate
sufficient labor force experience but also to secure the types of

economic independence by old age. The findings underscore the role of
the state in compensating those who immigrated at older ages for their
inability to accumulate market resources by raising them above the

Journal = {CHINA ECONOMIC REVIEW},

Volume = {11},
Number = {2},
Pages = {189-209},
Abstract = {This paper applies inframarginal analysis, which is a combination of
marginal and total cost-benefit analysis, to a model with both constant
returns and increasing returns in production. It demonstrates that as
transaction conditions are improved, the general equilibrium
discontinuously jumps from autarky to partial division of labor with a
dual structure, then to the complete division of labor where the dual
structure disappears. Two types of dual structure may occur in the
transitional stage of economic development and globalization. One of
them involves the division of labor in the developed economy and autarky
in the less developed economy, generating increasing disparity of per
capita real income between the two types of economies. The other
involves a domestic dual structure in the less developed economy, where
the population is divided between a commercialized sector that trades
with a foreign country and a self-sufficient sector that is not involved
in trade. All gains from trade go to the developed economy. This paper
shows that deterioration of a country's terms of trade and an increase
of gains that this country receives from trade may concur, provided
productivity progress from an expanded network of division of labor
outpaces the deterioration of terms of trade. In the model with both
endogenous and exogenous comparative advantages, a country may export a
good with exogenous comparative disadvantage if endogenous comparative
advantage dominates this exogenous comparative disadvantage.
Implications of the findings for China's WTO membership and China's
trade policy are explored. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Inc. All rights

Title = {Art practice with migrant women: Three challenges to rediscovering home},
Journal = {ACTION RESEARCH},
Year = {2022},
Month = {2022 APR 29},
Abstract = {The paper is based on an arts-based project that was aimed at
understanding what `home' means to migrant women in London. The project
entailed teaching art techniques to 36 women participants and the active
contribution of a large group of volunteers and research assistants.
Women in the project were from various backgrounds but the majority were
from Afghanistan. As such the project was conducted using multiple
languages and a systematic collaboration among the research team members
and between researchers and participants. This complex communication
made the process of meaning-making of concept of home challenging. Three
main challenges that were experienced in relation to this collaborative
methodology have been identified and the strategies that were developed
to address them are detailed. The three challenges in combining action
research and arts methods that are discussed in this paper include: 1.
Challenges about collective decision-making; 2. Challenges about the
notions of progress and process; and 3. Challenges concerning
stakeholders' scope of experience. The paper offers a pathway towards
working in contentious research settings between academia and
community-based organisations in project that include participants from
different backgrounds and speak various languages. We offer insights
into how both researchers and participants can learn from challenges in
deploying collaborative methodologies such as art practice in action
research. We show here that incorporating art practice is a
transformative action even when it is seen as far from an essential
skill or unnecessary. Such action-oriented practices in research are
directly related to United Nations' sustainable development goals in
reducing gender inequality and the opportunities that art practice can
offer for quality education to marginalised groups in society.},

Abstract = {Purpose Women and disadvantaged minorities within emerging and
developing economies often resort to business activity within the
informal economy as a way to overcome various barriers and challenges to
formal workforce participation. This paper aims to explore the
characteristics, motives, barriers and challenges of female engagement
in informal business activities in Jordan. Design/methodology/approach
The qualitative analysis used in this paper is based upon empirical
findings from semi-structured, in-depth interviews with 14 female
informal entrepreneurs in Amman, Jordan. Findings The study revealed
that informal female entrepreneurs tend to be both opportunity- and
necessity-driven. Generating profit and contributing to the household
income seems to be their main motive. Their businesses were funded
either through personal savings or from their social network (e.g.
husband, family and friends). Promotion of the business relied mostly on
word-of-mouth or social media. High inflation, high competition, time
pressures and lack of business skills were cited as the biggest
challenges. Besides being content with the status quo, lack of knowledge
about the procedures for registering a business and fear of bureaucracy
were among the main reasons for not legalizing their activities.
Originality/value There are very few studies that analyse informal
micro-entrepreneurship in the Arab world, particularly in the Jordanian
context, which is of growing interest due to low number of women in the
workforce and the growing number of refugees in the country. This study
therefore presents new knowledge around women's informal
micro-entrepreneurship in Jordan and provides recommendations for
further research and policy-making.},

Abstract = {Background: The Healthy Men, Health Communities program aims to improve
preventive behaviors among African American men to reduce HPV-related
cancer disparities.
Purpose: We describe the development of an educational intervention
using cultural-targeting strategies (i.e., linguistics, peripherals,
evidence, socio-culture, and constituent-involving).
Methods: After building capacity of community-based organization (CBO)
leaders as research team members, we conducted 3 focus groups, 30
surveys, and a community review and program evaluation with African
American men.
Results: Focus group themes were (1) The Known and Unknown of Cancer,
HPV, and the vaccine; (2) Personal experiences with cancer were
commonplace; (3) Barriers to Engaging HPV Cancer Preventive Behaviors;
(4) Multi-Modal Strategies are needed to improve preventive behaviors;
and (5) Actual versus Preferred Sources of Information. Survey data
indicated that men desired information on penile (52\%) and oral cancers
(48\%). The preferred education format was a summit with speakers on
various topics (96\%). Post-summit evaluation indicated majority of
males intended to get screened (73\%), eat healthier (77\%), and
exercise more (64\%). About 40\% reported getting themselves, children,
or grandchildren the HPV vaccine.
Discussion: Our program demonstrated acceptability, feasibility, and

Abstract = {Persons with visual impairments (VI) have a high nonparticipation rate
in the labor force. Information about factors influencing their labor
force participation could provide insight into how to increase
employment rates. We selected persons with VI from the Survey of Income
and Program Participation to investigate factors that differentiate
persons out of the labor force (OLF) for chronic health or disability
reasons from those employed and those OLF due to other reasons. Persons
with VI and OLF for chronic health or disability reasons were more
likely to have additional disabilities; have physical, mental, or other
health limitations to work; and receive Supplemental Security Income or
Social Security Disability Insurance. Compared with those employed,
people with VI and OLF for chronic health or disability reasons appear
to have multiple characteristics indicating poorer health, lower
education attainment, and greater financial insecurity. Compared with
those OLF due to other reasons, people with VI and OLF for chronic
health or disability reasons were less likely to be female but more
likely to receive food assistance and to indicate disadvantaged health
status. These results suggest that skills to accommodate vision
disability or health conditions are essential to employment or further
education, and additional education may expand vocational options.
Benefits counseling, encouragement, and careful career planning may
assist persons with VI in moving toward financial independence.},

Curve?},

Abstract = {ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AND GENDER EQUALITY IS THERE A GENDER KUZNETS
CURVE? By JOSHUA EASTIN and ASEEM PRAKASH This research note examines
the relationship between economic development and gender equality.
Drawing on the concept of the Kuznets curve, the authors hypothesize
that the relationship between economic development and gender inequality
is curvilinear (S shaped), with three distinct stages. In the first
stage, economic development improves gender equality because it enables
greater female labor-force participation. An independent income stream
increases women's intrahousehold bargaining power. The opportunity to
develop human capital confers greater political and social recognition.
In the second stage, labor-force stratification and gender
discrimination encourage divergent male/female income trajectories,
which decrease the opportunity costs of female labor-force withdrawal
and lend traction to social resistance against burgeoning gender norms.
Consequently, there is a deceleration in initial equality gains. In the
final stage, gender equality again improves, as greater educational
participation and technological advancement provide new employment
opportunities for women, increase the opportunity costs of staying home,
and encourage the evolution of new social institutions and norms that
overcome prior discriminatory practices. The authors find support for
this argument in statistical tests of the relationship between economic
development and gender equality on a panel of 146 developing countries
for the period 1980-2005. They employ four indicators that reflect
distinct dimensions of women's political, social, and economic status.
They find economic development positively influences gender equality
when per capita incomes are below \$8,000-\$10,000. These equality gains
level off or decline slightly in the second stage, from \$8,000-10,000
to about \$25,000-\$30,000. Beyond this level, economic development is
again associated with improvements in gender equality. The key
implication is that the effect of economic development on gender
equality is contingent on the level of development. Policymakers and
social activists should develop policy correctives to ensure that
economic development confers improvements in gender equality across
phases of development.},

Title = {Does addressing gender inequalities and empowering women and girls
improve health and development programme outcomes?},
Journal = {HEALTH POLICY AND PLANNING},
Year = {2016},
Volume = {31},
Number = {10},
Pages = {1492-1514},
Month = {DEC},
Abstract = {This article presents evidence supporting the hypothesis that promoting
gender equality and women's and girls' empowerment (GEWE) leads to
better health and development outcomes. We reviewed the literature
across six sectors-family planning (FP); maternal, newborn and child
health (MNCH); nutrition; agriculture; water, sanitation and hygiene;
and financial services for the poor-and found 76 studies from low and
middle-income countries that met our inclusion criteria. Across these
studies, we identified common GEWE variables that emerged repeatedly as
significant predictors of sector outcomes. We grouped these variables
into 10 thematic categories, which we termed `gender-related levers'.
These levers were then classified by the strength of evidence into
Wedges, Foundations and Facilitators. Wedges are gender-related levers
that had strong associations with improved outcomes across multiple
sectors. They include: `control over income/assets/resources',
`decision-making power' and `education'. Elements of these levers
overlap, but combined, they encapsulate agency. Increasing female agency
promotes equality and broadly improves health and development for women,
their families and their communities. The second classification,
Foundations, displayed strong, positive associations across FP, MNCH and
nutrition. Foundations have a more proximal relationship with sector
outcomes and include: `equitable interpersonal relationships',
`mobility' and `personal safety'. Finally, the third group of levers,
Facilitators, was associated with improved outcomes in two to three
sectors and include: `access to information', `community groups', `paid
labour' and `rights'. These levers make it easier for women and girls to
achieve their goals and are more traditional elements of development
programmes. Overall, gender-related levers were associated with
improvements in a variety of health and development outcomes.
Furthermore, these associations were cross-sectoral, suggesting that to
fully realize the benefits of promoting GEWE, the development community
must collaborate in co-ordinated and integrated ways across multiple
sectors. More research is needed to identify the mechanisms by which
gendered interventions work and under what circumstances.},

Title = {Mothers employed in paid work and their predictors for home delivery in
Pakistan},
Journal = {BMC PREGNANCY AND CHILDBIRTH},
Year = {2018},
Volume = {18},
Month = {AUG 3},
Abstract = {Background: Pakistan has one of the highest rates of maternal and
neonatal mortality in the world. It is assumed that employed mothers in
paid work will be more empowered to opt for safer institutional
deliveries. There is a need to understand the predictors of home
deliveries in order to plan policies to encourage institutional
deliveries in the region.
Methods: The study aimed to ascertain the predictors for home deliveries
among mothers employed in paid work in Pakistan. Data analysis is based
on secondary data taken from the Pakistan Demographic Health Survey
2012-13. Bivariate and multivariate logistic regression models were
conducted.
Results: The findings show that the majority (53.6\%) of employed
mothers in Pakistan give birth at home. Employed mothers in paid work
with the following characteristics had higher chances for delivering at
home: (i) women from rural areas (AOR 1.26; 95\% CI: 0.94-1.71), or
specific regions within Pakistan, (ii) those occupied in unskilled work
(AOR 2.61; 95\% CI: 1.76-3.88), (iii) women married to uneducated (AOR
1.70; 95\% CI: 1.08-2.66), unemployed (AOR 1.69; 95\% CI: 1.21-2.35), or
unskilled men (AOR 2.02; 95\% CI: 1.49-2.72), (iv) women with more than
7 children (AOR 1.57; 95\% CI: 1.05-2.35), (v) women who are unable in
the prenatal period to have an institutional check-up (AOR 4.84; 95\%
CI: 3.53-6.65), take assistance from a physician (AOR 3.98; 95\% CI:
3.03-5.20), have a blood analysis (AOR 2.63; 95\% CI: 1.95-3.57), urine
analysis (AOR 2.48; 95\% CI: 1.84-3.33) or taken iron tablets (AOR 2.64;
95\% CI: 2.06-3.38), and (vi) are unable to make autonomous decisions
with regard to spending their earnings (AOR 1.82; 95\% CI: 1.27-2.59)
and healthcare (AOR 1.12; 95\% CI: 0.75-1.65).
Conclusions: Greater efforts by the central and provincial state bodies
are needed to encourage institutional deliveries and institutional
access, quality and cost. Maternal and paternal benefits are needed for
workers in both the formal and informal sectors of the economy. Finally,
cultural change, through education, media and religious authorities, is
necessary to support institutional deliveries and formal sector paid
employment and out of home work opportunities for mothers of Pakistan.},

Title = {Perceptions of success of women early career researchers},
Journal = {STUDIES IN GRADUATE AND POSTDOCTORAL EDUCATION},
Year = {2018},
Volume = {9},
Number = {1},
Pages = {2-18},
Abstract = {Purpose - In the highly gendered academic sector, womens' high
participation rates have not translated into equal career progression
with men. Existing literature suggests that early career publication
success is a good indicator of long-term publication success. This
research is intended to provide a better understanding of whether the
notions of success espoused by neo-liberal universities align with the
subjective measures of what constitutes academic success for women ECRs
(early career researchers).
Design/methodology/approach - The study examines the perceptions of nine
successful women ECRs at an Australian university. It uses collaborative
autoethnography with thematic analysis of participants' self-reflective
narratives on being a successful ECR.
Findings - Five themes were identified. One focussed on objective
academic success, which included publications, grants and citations. The
other four themes - living a balanced life, making a difference, labour
of love and freedom and flexibility - offered more subjective views of
success. These included: research making a contribution to society,
undertaking research they are passionate about, having autonomy in their
role and achieving work-life balance.
Practical implications - The findings demonstrate that women define
success in broader terms than neo-liberal universities, and future
studies should consider these divergent definitions. Universities
committed to equality should understand differences in how women may
approach career progress and incorporate this into support processes and
in alignment of individual and university goals.
Originality/value - This research offers unique insights into the
experience of post-doctoral employment for women in the academic
environment and the factors influencing their success in this early
career phase.},

Title = {Inequalities among malnourished children in India A decomposition
analysis from 1992-2006},
Journal = {INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF SOCIAL ECONOMICS},
Year = {2016},
Volume = {43},
Number = {6},
Pages = {643-659},
Abstract = {Purpose - The purpose of this paper is threefold: first, to measure the
health inequalities among malnourished children; second, to decompose
the health inequalities to identify key socioeconomic predictors for
child malnutrition; and third, to assess the change in the proportional
contribution of key predictors over time.
Design/methodology/approach - The study has used data of National Family
Health Survey (NFHS) conducted in 1992-1993, 1998-1999 and 2005-2006.
The information on anthropometric indicators for children below three
years of age is provided; however the study is restricted to
``weight-for-age,{''} as it is considered to be a comprehensive
indicator of child nutritional status. In the first stage of analysis,
health inequalities are measured among malnourished children using
concentration indices (CI) for each round of NFHS. In second stage, the
inequalities are decomposed to estimate the proportional contribution of
socioeconomic predictors. In the third stage, change in the relative
contribution of socioeconomic predictors over three rounds is assessed
to suggest target-specific policies and programs.
Findings - The results highlight a slow decline of only seven percentage
points in the proportion of malnourished children in India during
1992-2006. The increasing values of CIs from -0.13 (1992) to -0.18
(2006) demonstrates the concomitant rise in economic inequalities among
malnourished children. The results of decomposition analysis point
toward household poor economic status and mother's illiteracy as the
major contributor of inequalities during 1992-2006. During the study
period, the economic status explained 50, 65 and 59 percent of
inequalities, whereas mother's illiteracy explained 40, 30 and 29
percent of inequalities, respectively. Overall, the contributors to
health inequalities remained the same over time with a change in their
relative contribution.
Research limitations/implications - The present study is focussed on
three rounds of NFHS data conducted at different time period and so it
has certain limitations which should be kept in mind while interpreting
the results. The study has revealed mother's education and economic
status of the household as the major contributory factors toward child
health inequalities. However, one should not forget that the level and
quality of education has undergone tremendous change from 1992 to 2006
which the authors could not capture considering the availability of data
in the form of years of schooling. Second, since the NFHS-1 has
collected the information about the caste groups in only three
categories, i.e. schedule caste, schedule tribe and others; the authors
have to pool the other backward caste groups with the general caste
groups. Third, the authors have used the broad classification of place
of residence, i.e. rural and urban area to analyze the inequalities
assuming the uniform level of development across the urban regions;
however there exists huge disparities within urban areas which leave
scope for further research. Fourth, though, the authors have estimated
the wealth based inequalities, but NFHS does not provide the absolute
level of wealth and so the authors have computed the proxy measure for
wealth based on the household assets which has been extensively used in
the field of research. Despite these limitations, the authors however
believe that the present research work has appropriately decomposed the
inequalities among malnourished children and have revealed the changes
in the proportional contribution of socioeconomic factors over time.
Practical implications - The decomposition analysis brought into light
that average health indicators are insufficient for determining the
right approach to health intervention programs. Health policy
interventions have to focus ideally on both health averages and within
and between group inequalities based on varying contributions of
socioeconomic determinants.
Social implications - Concentrated efforts along with the inter-sectoral
concurrence, good nutrition governance, effective investment and unequal
distribution of resources are pre-requisites to ameliorate the level and
existing inequalities in child malnutrition in India.
Originality/value - The distinctiveness of this study can be primarily
found in the use of all three rounds of NFHS data to estimate health
inequalities among underweight children. The study has also decomposed
the health inequalities to estimate and analyze the change in relative
contribution of socioeconomic predictors for each round to facilitate
the formulation of target-specific policies and programs.},

Title = {Lactation in quarantine: The (in)visibility of human milk feeding during
the COVID-19 pandemic in the United States},
Journal = {INTERNATIONAL BREASTFEEDING JOURNAL},
Year = {2022},
Volume = {17},
Number = {1},
Month = {MAR 21},
Abstract = {Background In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, billions of people were
asked by their state and local governments not to go to work and not
leave the house unless they had to. The goal of this qualitative study
was to collect the lived experiences of a small group of parents and
lactation professionals in the United States about what it was like to
feed babies human milk under these conditions of quarantine. Methods
This project is a social constructionist analysis of lactation
narratives of 24 parents feeding their children human milk and 13
lactation professionals. They were interviewed remotely in 2020-21 via
videoconferencing about their experiences and perspectives on the
pandemic's effect on lactation. Additionally, photographs of 16 of the
parents are provided to visualize their practices and how they chose to
represent them. Results Four interrelated themes were identified in
participants' narratives about how they experienced and made sense of
human milk feeding during the pandemic: the loneliness of lactation
during the pandemic, the construction of human milk as a resource to
cope with the crisis, the (in)visibility of lactation amidst heightened
multitasking, and the sense of connection created by human milk feeding
at a time of unprecedented solitude. Conclusions While the pandemic may
have had both positive and negative effects on lactation, it exposed
continuing inequities in infant feeding, generating new forms of
(in)visibility for lactating labor. Going forward, one lesson for policy
and lawmakers may be that to adequately support lactation, they should
take cues from the families who had positive experiences during the
crisis. This would call for systemically overhauling of US laws and
policies by guaranteeing: universal basic income, paid parental leave
for at least six months, paid lactation leaves and breaks, affordable
housing, universal health care, subsidized childcare programs, and equal
access to high-quality, non-discriminatory, and culturally appropriate
medical care-including lactation counseling-, among other initiatives.},

Abstract = {Background Trans and gender-diverse people face multiple barriers within
health care. Primary care practitioners are key to providing health care
to trans and gender-diverse people but they often lack training in, and
understanding of, trans identities and healthcare options. Few studies
have examined health professionals' understanding of the barriers that
exist in health care for trans and gender-diverse people. Aim To map out
barriers to providing good-quality health care to trans and
gender-diverse people, and explore ways to address them. Design and
setting A qualitative interview study involving 20 health professionals
working with young trans and gender-diverse people. Method Participants
were recruited through purposive and snowball sampling. Data were
generated using semi-structured qualitative interviews. A thematic
analysis involved coding and categorising data using NVivo (version 12)
software and further conceptual analysis in which developing themes were
identified. Results Four barrier domains to good-quality care for trans
and gender-diverse people were identified: structural (related to lack
of guidelines, long waiting times, and shortage of specialist centres);
educational (based on lack of training on trans health); cultural and
social (reflecting negative attitudes towards trans people); and
technical (related to information systems and technology). Conclusion
There is an urgent need to address the barriers trans and gender-diverse
people face in health care. Structural-level solutions include health
policy, professional education, and standards; at the practice level,
GPs can act as potential drivers of change in addressing the cultural
and technical barriers to better meet the needs of their trans and

Abstract = {To improve population health, one must put emphasis on reducing health
inequities and enhancing health protection and disease prevention, and
early diagnosis and treatment of diseases by tackling the determinants
of health at the downstream, midstream, and upstream levels. There is
strong theoretical and empirical evidence for the association between
strong national primary care systems and improved health indicators. The
setting approach to promote health such as healthy schools, healthy
cities also aims to address the determinants of health and build the
capacity of individuals, families, and communities to create strong
human and social capitals. The notion of human and social capitals
begins to offer explanations why certain communities are unable to
achieve better health than other communities with similar demography. In
this paper, a review of studies conducted in different countries
illustrate how a well-developed primary health care system would reduce
all causes of mortalities, improve health status, reduce
hospitalization, and be cost saving despite a disparity in socioeconomic
conditions. The intervention strategy recommended in this paper is
developing a model of comprehensive primary health care system by
joining up different settings integrating the efforts of different
parties within and outside the health sector. Different components of
primary health care team would then work more closely with individuals
and families and different healthy settings. This synergistic effect
would help to strengthen human and social capital development. The model
can then combine the efforts of upstream, midstream, and downstream
approaches to improve population health and reduce health inequity.
Otherwise, health would easily be jeopardized as a result of rapid
urbanization.},

The Czech Republic and Norway},

Abstract = {Based on a qualitative study of young people's visions of their future,
this article explores tensions emerging between care work and
professional success in the life-scripts of young girls and boys in the
Czech Republic and Norway. The two countries both have a high level of
female labour market participation but have developed distinctively
different welfare policies as concerns the emphasis placed on family vs.
institutional care. In Norway, there has been a strong increase in
subsidized public child care, and simultaneously fathers' roles as
caretakers have been stressed both in public policies and discourse. The
Czech Republic has experienced an opposite trend; maternity leave has
been extended, public creches have almost vanished and public discourse
has focused on the superiority of motherly care over public care.
Framing our discussion within debates around naturalization, gendered
subject positions and balance, we ask how - or to what extent -- such
distinct discourses and policies influence the ways that young people
come to envision their future life. Two different models of balance are
applied: one which sees the individual as the balancing unit and the
other taking relational dimensions into account. Some expected
differences between the young Czechs and Norwegians are found, for
example, with regards to articulations of male involvement in care work
and female economic independence. Through the relational model of
balance, we are also able to discover striking similarities between the
two contexts, which demonstrate enduring gendered inequalities in
perceived divisions of work-care responsibilities. Firstly, the girl
career seeker - one who gives priority to career over family -- does not
appear as an imaginable position neither among girls nor among boys.
Moreover, there is a striking silence around the particularities of
care-work as performed by women, something which suggests that aspects
of care are still naturalized as female.},

Journal = {JOURNAL OF THE INTERNATIONAL AIDS SOCIETY},
Year = {2021},

Month = {SEP},
Abstract = {Introduction Social protection programmes are considered HIV-sensitive
when addressing risk, vulnerability or impact of HIV infection.
Socio-economic interventions, like livelihood and employability
programmes, address HIV vulnerabilities like poverty and gender
inequality. We explored the HIV-sensitivity of socio-economic
interventions for unemployed and out-of-school young women aged 15 to 30
years, in East and Southern Africa, a key population for HIV infection.
Methods We conducted a systematic review using a narrative synthesis
method and the Mixed Methods Appraisal Tool for quality appraisal.
Interventions of interest were work skills training, microfinance, and
employment support. Outcomes of interest were socio-economic outcomes
(income, assets, savings, skills, (self-) employment) and HIV-related
outcomes (behavioural and biological). We searched published and grey
literature (January 2005 to November 2019; English/French) in MEDLINE,
Scopus, Web of Science and websites of relevant international
organizations. Results We screened 3870 titles and abstracts and 188
full-text papers to retain 18 papers, representing 12 projects. Projects
offered different combinations of HIV-sensitive social protection
programmes, complemented with mentors, safe space and training (HIV,
reproductive health and gender training). All 12 projects offered work
skills training to improve life and business skills. Six offered formal
(n = 2) or informal (n = 5) livelihood training. Eleven projects offered
microfinance, including microgrants (n = 7), microcredit (n = 6) and
savings (n = 4). One project offered employment support in the form of
apprenticeships. In general, microgrants, savings, business and life
skills contributed improved socio-economic and HIV-related outcomes.
Most livelihood training contributed positive socio-economic outcomes,
but only two projects showed improved HIV-related outcomes. Microcredit
contributed little to either outcome. Programmes were effective when (i)
sensitive to beneficiaries' age, needs, interests and economic
vulnerability; (ii) adapted to local implementation contexts; and (iii)
included life skills. Programme delivery through mentorship and safe
space increased social capital and may be critical to improve the
HIV-sensitivity of socio-economic programmes. Conclusions A wide variety
of livelihood and employability programmes were leveraged to achieve
improved socio-economic and HIV-related outcomes among unemployed and
out-of-school young women. To be HIV-sensitive, programmes should be
designed around their interests, needs and vulnerability, adapted to
local implementation contexts, and include life skills. Employment
support received little attention in this literature.},

Year = {2023},
Volume = {47},

Month = {JUN},
Abstract = {Critics have identified the corporate and business sector as
contributing to household food insecurity through its endorsement of low
wages, anti-union activities and lobbying for retrenchment of the
Canadian welfare state. It is therefore troubling that this same
corporate and business sector has come to dominate positions on the
boards of directors of civil society organizations with missions to
reduce household food insecurity. Fisher uses the term `Big Hunger' to
describe how this `hunger-industrial complex' of food banks, food
diversion schemes and corporations and companies are accruing benefits
to themselves yet do little to reduce household food insecurity. We
consider such processes as illustrating two key political economy
concepts: (1) Marx's concepts of base and superstructure and (2)
Gramsci's cultural hegemony. We carry out a critical case study of the
relevance of these concepts to the Canadian household food insecurity
scene by examining how the corporate and business sector now dominates
the boards of directors of four major civil society organizations
concerned with reducing household food insecurity. We find evidence of
these civil society organizations Corresponding exhibiting agenda
distortion, reciprocity and loss of integrity, all reflecting their
becoming part of the superstructure of capitalist society whose ruling
elites come to dominate the ideas and values of society. Issues of
wages, unionization and collective agreement bargaining, taxes and
taxation, income inequality and retrenchment of the welfare state - all
important contributors to household food insecurity and key concerns of
the corporate and business community - are for the most part absent from
these civil society organizations' reports, documents and statements. We
specify the implications these developments have for addressing
household food insecurity and the inequitable distribution of other
social determinants of health.},

Abstract = {In this study, we conducted a citation network analysis of
intersectionality scholarship. We aimed to elucidate content domains in
this scholarship's citation network. In addition, we explored a
citation-based genealogy of this scholarship, attending to the
representation of women of color identified in prior critical analyses
of intersectionality scholarship as key but under-acknowledged
contributors to intersectional thought and praxis. We used
CitNetExplorer to analyze a network of 17,332 records and 60,132
citation links. The analysis yielded 17 clusters, with the five largest
clusters focusing on (1) conceptualizing intersectionality theory,
methodology, and analysis; (2) psychology, identity stigma, and multiple
minority statuses; (3) sociology of gender inequality, labor markets,
and organizations; (4) political science, political systems and policy,
including in the European context; and (5) violence against women,
gender and health, and health equity. Although some of the key women of
color contributors to intersectional thought were among the most cited
authors in the network, others were cited infrequently or not at all
across the network and clusters. Taken together, the analyses revealed
substantial and ongoing engagement with efforts to define and refine
intersectionality as epistemology and methodology. However, the analyses
pointed to the need for scholars to reengage with, cite, and follow the
examples of the women of color who contributed to intersectional thought
by actually doing intersectional praxis that directly advances social
justice aims. Some of the smaller clusters in the citation network
reflected content domains, such as environmental justice and community
planning, ripe for such activist-scholar work.},

Journal = {SOCIAL SCIENCE \& MEDICINE},

Abstract = {Despite remarkable progress in the fight against HIV, the number of new
infections remains unacceptably high, epidemics continue to grow in
certain communities, and therefore AIDS continues to be one of the
deadliest pandemics of our times. This study analyzes the rate of new
HIV infections over almost 30 years in low- and middle-income countries.
Previous research identifies two critical ways to address HIV prevention
in developing countries: educating women and using mobile phones to
improve health literacy and access to virtual healthcare. Our study
bridges these literatures by evaluating how women's education and mobile
technology work together to support the goals of HIV prevention in low-
and middle-income countries. Using two-way panel fixed effects
regression models of HIV incidence across 76 developing countries, we
find that both increasing access to women's education and increasing
access to mobile phones are associated with fewer HIV infections over
time. Furthermore, we discover that women's education moderates the
relationship between mobile phones and HIV. More specifically, mobile
phones seem to be more beneficial for HIV prevention in cases where
rates of formal schooling are low. However, at higher levels of women's
education, the impact of mobile phones on new HIV infections is
substantially reduced. Our findings have important policy implications
for Information and Communications for Development (ICT4D) programs.},

Abstract = {Accessible summary Lack of cultural competence in care contributes to
poor experiences and outcomes from care for migrants and racial and
ethnic minorities. As a result, health and social care organizations
currently promote cultural competence of their workforce as a means of
addressing persistent poor experiences and outcomes. At present, there
are unsystematic and diverse ways of promoting cultural competence, and
their impact on clinician skills and patient outcomes is unknown. We
developed and implemented an innovative model, cultural consultation
service (CCS), to promote cultural competence of clinicians and directly
improve on patient experiences and outcomes from care. CCS model is an
adaptation of the McGill model, which uses ethnographic methodology and
medical anthropological knowledge. The method and approach not only
contributes both to a broader conceptual and dynamic understanding of
culture, but also to learning of cultural competence skills by
healthcare professionals. The CCS model demonstrates that
multidisciplinary workforce can acquire cultural competence skills
better through the clinical encounter, as this promotes integration of
learning into day-to-day practice. Results indicate that clinicians
developed a broader and patient-centred understanding of culture, and
gained skills in narrative-based assessment method, management of
complexity of care, competing assumptions and expectations, and clinical
cultural formulation.
AbstractCultural competence is defined as a set of skills, attitudes and
practices that enable the healthcare professionals to deliver
high-quality interventions to patients from diverse cultural
backgrounds. Improving on the cultural competence skills of the
workforce has been promoted as a way of reducing ethnic and racial
inequalities in service outcomes. Currently, diverse models for training
in cultural competence exist, mostly with no evidence of effect. We
established an innovative narrative-based cultural consultation service
in an inner-city area to work with community mental health services to
improve on patients' outcomes and clinicians' cultural competence
skills. We targeted 94 clinicians in four mental health service teams in
the community. After initial training sessions, we used a cultural
consultation model to facilitate in vivo' learning. During cultural
consultation, we used an ethnographic interview method to assess
patients in the presence of referring clinicians. Clinicians'
self-reported measure of cultural competence using the Tool for
Assessing Cultural Competence Training (n=28, at follow-up) and
evaluation forms (n=16) filled at the end of each cultural consultation
showed improvement in cultural competence skills. We conclude that
cultural consultation model is an innovative way of training clinicians
in cultural competence skills through a dynamic interactive process of
learning within real clinical encounters.},

Methods Dyadic interview technique was used to identify student and

Results Student participants reported becoming more intrinsically
motivated and future-focused by programme completion. They noted a
broader outlook about the meaning of employment; moving from a narrow,
financial-focused, short-term perception to a longer-term, more holistic
view of work. Although student participants reported high confidence
levels for obtaining and keeping employment by programme completion,
mentors voiced concerns about realism of their goals due to employment
barriers for people with disabilities.
Conclusions Work motivation has been previously associated with positive
employment participation. Findings provide some support for assessment

Abstract = {Introduction: Veterans die by suicide at higher rates than nonveterans.
Given that the emergency department is often the first point of entry to
healthcare following a suicide attempt, it would be beneficial for
community providers to have knowl-edge of the characteristics, medical
issues, and effective treat-ments most often associated with those
having served in the military to ensure guideline concordant and quality
suicide care. This study aimed to identify assessment and referral
prac-tices of emergency departments at rural community hospitals related
to care for suicidal veterans and explore the feasibility and
acceptability of identifying veterans in need of postdi-scharge
aftercare. Methods: This qualitative exploratory study involved content
analysis of semistructured interviews. Ten emergency clinicians from 5
rural Arkansas counties with high suicide rates were interviewed about
their experiences working with suicidal patients within the emergency
department and perceptions assessment, management, and referral
practices. Results: Although most of the emergency departments had
process for assessing for suicide risk, emergency clinicians not always
feel confident in their knowledge of assessing caring for suicidal
patients. Military history was not included in assessment, treatment, or
aftercare planning, nor were brief interventions such as safety planning
or lethal means safety education provided. Discussion: Best practices
for suicide assessment and man- agement of veterans exist; however,
challenges specific to the emergency department regarding staff training
and engaging the community to effectively link at-risk veterans to
needed care hinder implementation. Veteran-inclusive assessment and
intervention practices could enhance the quality of care provided in
community emergency departments.},

Abstract = {This article investigates the cultural politics of entrepreneurship as a
form of opposition to gentrification in Oakland, California. Building on
Watkins and Caldwell's (2004) foundational work, I examine the
relationship between political projects resisting gentrification, racial
and economic disparities - and the cultural work of signifying a
community's continued presence amidst displacement and glorification of
newcomers. Based on 30 interviews with employees of food justice
non-profit organizations, social enterprises, and government agencies, I
argue that activists promote food-based entrepreneurship to create
employment and business opportunities for long-term residents that
enables them to stay in their hometown. In doing so, the contributions
of long-standing communities to Oakland's diverse food cultures are
highlighted. However, property values are rising rapidly that even these
opportunities cannot ensure that long-term communities remain. For this
reason, I conclude by offering examples of direct action and policy
advocacy that can supplement these entrepreneurial approaches.},

Abstract = {Although there has been substantial debate and research concerning the
economic impact of neo-liberal practices, there is a paucity of research
about the potential relation between neo-liberal economic practices and
population health. We assessed the extent to which neo-liberal policies
and practices are associated with population health at the national
level. We collected data on 119 countries between 1980 and 2004. We
measured neo-liberalism using the Fraser Institute's Economic Freedom of
the World (EFW) Index, which gives an overall score as well as a score
for each of five different aspects of neo-liberal economic practices:
(1) size of government, (2) legal structure and security of property
rights, (3) access to sound money, (4) freedom to exchange with
foreigners and (5) regulation of credit, labor and business. Our measure
of population health was under-five mortality. We controlled for
potential mediators (income distribution, social capital and openness of
political institutions) and confounders (female literacy, total
population, rural population, fertility, gross domestic product per
capita and time period). In longitudinal multivariable analyses, we
found that the EFW index did not have an effect on child mortality but
that two of its components: improved security of property rights and
access to sound money were associated with lower under-five mortality (p
= 0.017 and p = 0.024, respectively). When stratifying the countries by
level of income, less regulation of credit, labor and business was
associated with lower under-five mortality in high-income countries (p =
0.001). None of the EFW components were significantly associated with
under-five mortality in low-income countries. This analysis suggests
that the concept of `neo-liberalism' is not a monolithic entity in its
relation to health and that some `neo-liberal' policies are consistent
with improved population health. Further work is needed to corroborate
or refute these findings.},

on the employment sector: Evidence from Tanzania},
Journal = {WORLD DEVELOPMENT},
Year = {2021},
Volume = {142},
Month = {JUN},
Abstract = {This paper uses the Tanzanian Universal Primary Education (UPE) program
implemented between 1974 and 1978 to study the effect of education on
household consumption and on labor market participation in a rural
environment. Combining regional disparities of access to school with the
timing of the program, I adopt a difference-in-difference approach. To
estimate the returns to education for the entire population and not only
for wage workers, I use a two-sample estimation approach to predict
consumption for every household and find that education increases
predicted consumption for household heads working in every sector. I
also provide evidence that education increases the probability of
working in agriculture for women. These results, at first surprising,
suggest that education may influence the structural trans-formation and
that returns to education are positive in agriculture, provided that
skills taught at school are consistent with agriculture.

Title = {Social representations of gender and their influence in Supported
Employment: employment specialists' experiences in Sweden},
Journal = {DISABILITY AND REHABILITATION},
Year = {2023},
Month = {2023 SEP 1},
Abstract = {PurposeGender differences have been found in the outcomes of vocational
rehabilitation (VR) and in Supported Employment (SE), therefore, the
purpose of this study was to explore employment specialists' (ES) social
representations of gender in relation to work and VR and how these
social representations influence the ES's work in the VR process
according to SE.MethodsThe qualitative method of focus group discussions
was employed. Ten focus groups were held with 39 ESs from four
categories of SE organizations in Sweden. Topic analysis was applied to
the transcribed material from the focus groups.ResultsFive themes with
different social representations about gender and disability in relation
to VR and working life formed in the analysis: (1) differences in
personal and health factors among VR-participants, (2) gender norms in
society influencing VR, (3) energy-intensive environmental issues
influencing VR, (4) gender-specific interactions in VR, and (5) gendered
paths in the welfare system.ConclusionSocial representations of higher
strains on women with disabilities compared to men with disabilities
both in private and working life, which reflect the lived experiences of
the ESs, is a possible explanation for gender differences in VR and
working life for persons with disabilities.IMPLICATIONS FOR
REHABILITATIONGender differences in the outcomes of vocational
rehabilitation (VR) interventions have been noticed worldwide. In this
study, pervasive social representations about gender and disability in
relation to VR were found, but also unconsciousness about gender among
VR professionals. Therefore, awareness of gender is necessary in
VR.Individualized and person-centered approaches to VR like Supported
Employment, although considered best practice, might hide structures
like gender, which could lead to reproducing discriminating processes
and therefore not achieving gender equality in VR. Therefore, knowledge
of discrimination is important in VR.Gender-sensitivity in vocational
rehabilitation models with a person-centered and individualized approach
is needed and there might also be a need to systematically tailor
vocational rehabilitation models to reach gender equality in the
outcomes of the interventions. Therefore, gender equality indicators are
needed for VR models, to evaluate model effectiveness from a gender
perspective.},

Month = {JUN},
Abstract = {Sexual and reproductive health is known to generally be insufficiently
addressed by health care personnel working in cancer care. We hence
developed a short educational intervention, Fex-Talk, to overcome the
barriers to communicate about sexuality and fertility. The present study
sought to evaluate the Fex-Talk intervention, which aims to enhance
nurses' readiness to discuss fertility and sexuality issues with cancer
patients. The educational intervention involves a single session with an
optional follow-up session, and it includes different components in
accordance with Kolb's experiential learning cycle. The evaluation was
based on participants' oral and written feedback regarding the content
and organization of the intervention, as well as on teachers' field
notes from five educational events involving nurses who work with cancer
patients (n = 140). The data were analyzed using a thematic approach.
Four themes were identified, namely increased awareness, need for
knowledge, challenging discomfort, and dealing with external obstacles.
The intervention increased participants' awareness of patients' need to
discuss sexuality and fertility and of their own need for additional
knowledge. The role-play exercise was said to challenge personal
discomfort, although the participants still felt it helped to boost
their courage to, in the future, engage in such conversations. Several
external obstacles to initiate a conversation about sexuality or
fertility were identified, and possible strategies for overcoming them
were discussed. In conclusion, the Fex-Talk intervention was experienced
positively by the participating nurses. The results indicate that the
intervention increased nurses' understanding of patients' needs related
to sex and fertility and overcome barriers to initiate discussions about
sex and fertility with patients.},

Title = {Introducing peer worker roles into UK mental health service teams: a
qualitative analysis of the organisational benefits and challenges},
Journal = {BMC HEALTH SERVICES RESEARCH},
Year = {2013},
Volume = {13},
Month = {MAY 24},
Abstract = {Background: The provision of peer support as a component of mental
health care, including the employment of Peer Workers
(consumer-providers) by mental health service organisations, is
increasingly common internationally. Peer support is strongly advocated
as a strategy in a number of UK health and social care policies.
Approaches to employing Peer Workers are proliferating. There is
evidence to suggest that Peer Worker-based interventions reduce
psychiatric inpatient admission and increase service user (consumer)
empowerment. In this paper we seek to address a gap in the empirical
literature in understanding the organisational challenges and benefits
of introducing Peer Worker roles into mental health service teams.
Methods: We report the secondary analysis of qualitative interview data
from service users, Peer Workers, non-peer staff and managers of three
innovative interventions in a study about mental health self-care.
Relevant data was extracted from interviews with 41 participants and
subjected to analysis using Grounded Theory techniques. Organisational
research literature on role adoption framed the analysis.
Results: Peer Workers were highly valued by mental health teams and
service users. Non-peer team members and managers worked hard to
introduce Peer Workers into teams. Our cases were projects in
development and there was learning from the evolutionary process: in the
absence of formal recruitment processes for Peer Workers, differences in
expectations of the Peer Worker role can emerge at the selection stage;
flexible working arrangements for Peer Workers can have the unintended
effect of perpetuating hierarchies within teams; the maintenance of
protective practice boundaries through supervision and training can
militate against the emergence of a distinctive body of peer practice;
lack of consensus around what constitutes peer practice can result in
feelings for Peer Workers of inequality, disempowerment, uncertainty
about identity and of being under-supported.
Conclusions: This research is indicative of potential benefits for
mental health service teams of introducing Peer Worker roles. Analysis
also suggests that if the emergence of a distinctive body of peer
practice is not adequately considered and supported, as integral to the
development of new Peer Worker roles, there is a risk that the potential
impact of any emerging role will be constrained and diluted.},

reconciled},

Month = {AUG},
Abstract = {We study the design of child-care policies when redistribution matters.
Traditional mothers provide some informal child care, whereas career
mothers purchase full time formal care. The sorting of women across
career paths is endogenous and shaped by a social norm about gender
roles in the family. Via this social norm traditional mothers' informal
child care imposes an externality on career mothers, so that the market
outcome is inefficient. Informal care is too large and the group of
career mothers is too small so that inefficiency and gender inequality
go hand in hand.
In a first-best world redistribution across couples and efficiency are
separable. Redistribution is performed via lump-sum transfers and taxes
which are designed to equalize utilities across all couples. The
efficient allocation of child care is obtained by subsidizing formal
care at a Pigouvian rate.
However, in a second-best setting, a trade-off between efficiency and
redistribution emerges. The optimal uniform subsidy is lower than the
``Pigouvian{''} level. Conversely, under a nonlinear policy the
first-best ``Pigouvian{''} rule for the (marginal) subsidy on informal
care is reestablished. While the share of high career mothers continues
to be distorted downward for incentive reasons, this policy is effective
in reconciling the objectives of reducing the child care related
inefficiency and achieving a more equal income distribution across
couples. Our results continue to hold when the norm is defined within
the mothers' social group, rather than being based on the entire
population. (C) 2020 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.},

Abstract = {Unacceptable healthcare disparities in endocrine disease have persisted
for decades, and 2021 presents a difficult evolving environment. The
COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the gross structural inequities that
drive health disparities, and antiracism demonstrations remind us that
the struggle for human rights continues. Increased public awareness and
discussion of disparities present an urgent opportunity to advance
health equity. However, it is more complicated to change the behavior of
individuals and reform systems because societies are polarized into
different factions that increasingly believe, accept, and live different
realities.
To reduce health disparities, clinicians must (1) truly commit to
advancing health equity and intentionally act to reduce health
disparities; (2) create a culture of equity by looking inwards for
personal bias and outwards for the systemic biases built into their
everyday work processes; (3) implement practical individual,
organizational, and community interventions that address the root causes
of the disparities; and (4) consider their roles in addressing social
determinants of health and influencing healthcare payment policy to
advance health equity. To care for diverse populations in 2021,
clinicians must have self-insight and true understanding of
heterogeneous patients, knowledge of evidence-based interventions,
ability to adapt messaging and approaches, and facility with systems
change and advocacy. Advancing health equity requires both science and
art; evidence-based roadmaps and stories that guide the journey to
better outcomes, judgment that informs how to change the behavior of
patients, providers, communities, organizations, and policymakers, and
passion and a moral mission to serve humanity.},

Abstract = {BACKGROUND: Americans with disabilities have historically faced
substantial barriers to employment participation. The state-federal
vocational rehabilitation (VR) program has played an important role in
increasing the employment opportunities of Americans with disabilities

high-quality employment, independence, self-sufficiency, and full
integration into the community.
OBJECTIVE: The Vocational Rehabilitation Technical Assistance Center for
Quality Employment (VRTAC-QE) was designed to bring together the broad
range of existing quality employment strategies and supporting
practices, identify and implement new ones, and incorporate them into an
integrated training and technical assistance plan, consistent with the
circumstances and priorities of each State VR agency that requests
technical assistance.
METHOD: In the present paper, we present the results of a needs
assessment survey conducted among StateVRrehabilitation counselors and
professionals in cooperating rehabilitation agencies and services.
RESULTS: The purpose of the present study was to determine technical
assistance and training needs of State VR counselors in four practice
domains: (a) outreach services, (b) pre-employment transition services,
(c) vocational rehabilitation services, and (d) employment services.

Abstract = {This paper analyzes the contrast between the revolutionary shift in
LGBTTI rights and the maternalistic shadow still cast over
childcare-related family policies rights in Argentina. It analyzes
family laws highlighting recent developments with regards to the
recognition of women and the LGBTTI population as equal rights holders

working parents with childcare responsibilities, exploring whether or
not the enactment of the Egalitarian Marriage Act shifted the
consideration of working mothers and fathers' rights and obligations
regarding childcare. Finally, it discusses the progress - and related
challenges - in implementing policies that can disentangle the gender
and social inequalities embedded in them. I argue that the breakthrough
in LGBTTI rights is situated in the persistent continuity of the sexual
division of labor established through labor regulations aimed at working
parents. These not only misrecognize the LGBTTI population, but they
also reinforce a system of socioeconomic and inequalities. This scenario
reaffirms maternalistic assumptions that do not reflect the new family
dynamic and recent legal advances. In addition, in the most unequal
region of the world, the need to close socioeconomic gaps is crucial.},

Abstract = {Often, knowledge and quality education is reserved for the elite, where
there are systemic obstacles to gaining access to today's leaders.
Gender and racial inequities in executive-level positions across North
America have been a long-standing debate amongst scholars and policy
makers. Research has consistently documented that women are
disproportionately represented in upper management and in positions of
power and still continue to dominate traditionally ``female{''}
occupations, such as administrative support and service workers. Though
gender inequalities are evidently present, there is also a clear
under-representation of visible minorities holding executive-level
positions as well. In order to reverse these trends, governments across
North-America have enforced employment equity legislation and many
organizations have voluntarily committed to similar initiatives.
Perceived educational and career-related barriers to opportunity,
choice, and information within these segregated groups are shaped early
on. For this reason, many researchers champion early interventional
programs in order to prevent such perceived barriers from developing. In
this paper, there will be a thorough discussion on social networks and
how certain groups are denied access to sources of social capital, thus
hindering their ability to seek out prospective jobs or entering certain
career streams. In this study, Women in the Lead, a database published
in 2009, is a national directory of women whose professional expertise
and experience recommend them as candidates for positions of senior
level responsibility and as members on corporate boards. The Women in
the Lead database was comprised entirely of professional women who had
voluntarily subscribed as members. Of the 630 women asked to
participate, 210 responded to the survey. The 210 women who responded
were from 14 different industries in Canada and the US. The next
generation was described as soon to be graduates of high school. A
summary of this advice is reported in this paper, with the objective of
providing guidance to the next generation looking to enter the
workforce, regardless of their gender, location, and race.},

First-Episode Psychosis},

Abstract = {Objective: Social Security Administration (SSA) disability benefits are
an important source of income for people with psychoses and confer
eligibility for health insurance. The authors examined the impact of
coordinated specialty care on receipt of such benefits in first-episode
psychosis, along with the correlates and consequences of receiving them.
Method: The Recovery After an Initial Schizophrenia Episode Early
Treatment Program (RAISE-ETP) study, a 34-site cluster randomized trial,
compared NAVIGATE, a coordinated specialty care program, to usual
community care over 2 years. Receipt of SSA benefits and clinical
outcomes were assessed at program entry and every 6 months for 2 years.
Piecewise regression analysis was used to identify relative change in
outcome trajectories after receipt of disability benefits.
Results: Among 399 RAISE-ETP participants, 36 (9\%) were receiving SSA
disability benefits at baseline; of the remainder, 124 (34.1\%) obtained
benefits during the 2-year study period. The NAVIGATE intervention
improved quality of life, symptoms, and employment but did not
significantly reduce the likelihood of receiving SSA disability
benefits. Obtaining benefits was predicted by more severe psychotic
symptoms and greater dysfunction and was followed by increased total
income but fewer days of employment, reduced motivation (e.g., sense of
purpose, greater anhedonia), and fewer days of intoxication.
Conclusions: A 2-year coordinated specialty care intervention did not
reduce receipt of SSA disability benefits. There were some advantages
for those who obtained SSA disability benefits over the 2-year treatment
period, but there were also some unintended adverse consequences.
Providing income supports without impeding recovery remains an important
policy challenge.},

Title = {Scheduling practices for pregnant emergency medicine residents},
Journal = {AEM EDUCATION AND TRAINING},
Year = {2022},
Volume = {6},
Number = {6},
Month = {DEC},
Abstract = {BackgroundNight shift work is associated with adverse pathophysiologic
effects on maternal and fetal well-being. Although emergency medicine
(EM) residents work frequent night shifts, there is no existing guidance
for residency program directors (PDs) regarding scheduling pregnant
residents. Our study assessed scheduling practices for pregnant EM
residents, differences based on program and PD characteristics, barriers
and attitudes toward implementing a formal scheduling policy, and PDs'
awareness of literature describing adverse effects of night shifts on
maternal-fetal outcomes. MethodsWe conducted an anonymous, web-based
survey of U.S. EM residencies (N = 276). Quantitative data were
summarized; chi-square analysis and logistic regression were used to
assess relationships between program and PD characteristics and schedule
accommodations. Qualitative description was used to analyze an
open-ended question, organizing findings into major and minor themes.
ResultsOf the 167 completed surveys (response rate 61\%), 67\% of
programs reported no formal policy for scheduling pregnant residents but
made adjustments on an individual basis including block changes (85\%),
decreased (46\%) or no night shifts (34\%), and working shifts earlier
in pregnancy to cover later shifts (20\%). Barriers to adjustments
included staffing constraints (60\%), equity concerns (45\%), or impact
on wellness (41\%) among all residents and privacy (28\%). PDs endorsed
scheduling adjustments as important (mean 8.1, 0-10 scale) and reported
guidance from graduate medical education governance would be useful
(60\%). Larger program size, but not PD gender or proportion of female
residents, was associated with an increased likelihood of scheduling
modifications. Twenty-five percent of PDs reported little knowledge of
literature regarding night shift work and pregnancy. Qualitative themes
supported quantitative findings. ConclusionsMost EM residency programs
do not have formal scheduling policies for pregnant residents, but most
PDs support making adjustments and do so informally. More education and
guidance for PDs are needed to promote the development of formal
policies.},

Volume = {96},

Abstract = {Context: The United States lacks timely reliable mechanisms for
assessing the professional work of subspecialty physicians.
Objective: The aim was to use early-career members of The Endocrine
Society as a model to estimate subspecialty physician involvement in
patient care, teaching, research, and administration among clinical,
academic, federal, and pharmaceutical/biotech workplaces and to assess
the workforce for research within individual workplaces.
Methods: Physicians joining The Endocrine Society from 1991-2005 and
residing in North America were invited to complete a Web-based survey.
This report relies on 817 early-career endocrinologists or 29.6\% of
eligible respondents.
Results: Respondents from all types of workplaces engaged in patient
care, teaching, research, and administration. The time committed to the
four tasks, however, differed significantly among workplaces. Research
(basic, translational, disease, patient, population, and prevention) was
accomplished within all workplaces, but the scope and scale of
investigative work was employer dependent. Recipients of National
Institutes of Health K08/23 awards succeeded in receiving federal
research project grants (P < 0.001). Respondents associated research
with lowered incomes, a perception validated by an estimated drop in
annual earnings of 2.8\% per half-day spent on research (P < 0.001).
Women in academic settings earned less than men (P < 0.01) and were less
likely to occupy tenure-eligible positions (P < 0.01).
Conclusions: Web-based surveys offer a simple tool for estimating the
work of subspecialty physicians and provide a framework for improving
biomedical investigation. Several interventions should be considered for
endocrinology: recruit physicians from underrepresented demographic
groups, increase K08/23 awards, incentivize investigative careers, and
improve the national infrastructure for biomedical research. (J Clin
Endocrinol Metab 96: 923-933, 2011)},

Abstract = {Background: The Health Disparities Collaboratives (HDCs), a quality

Objectives: To determine the HDC's effect on clinical processes and

Research Design: Systematic review of the literature.
Results: The HDCs improve clinical processes of care over short-term
period of 1 to 2 years, and clinical processes and outcomes over longer
period of 2 to 4 years. Most participants perceive that the HDCs are
successful and worth the effort. Analysis of the Diabetes Collaborative
reveals that it is societally cost-effective, with an incremental
cost-effectiveness ratio of \$33,386 per quality-adjusted life year, but
that consistent revenue streams for the initiative do not exist. Common
barriers to improvement include lack of resources, time, and staff
burnout. Highest ranked priorities for more funding are money for direct
patient services, data entry, and staff time for QI. Other common

Relatively low-cost ways to increase staff morale and prevent burnout
include personal recognition, skills development opportunities, and fair

Title = {European Part-time Workers' Health and Well-being in Times of Crisis.
The Case of Female Part-timers},
Journal = {HACIENDA PUBLICA ESPANOLA-REVIEW OF PUBLIC ECONOMICS},
Year = {2020},
Number = {235, SI},
Pages = {61-86},
Abstract = {The economic crisis, which started in late 2007, had a major impact on
countries' labour markets, and triggered a rise in the number of
non-standard contracts. Most European Union (EU) countries witnessed a
significant increase in part-time jobs. This type of employment and its
working conditions may have a negative impact on the health and
well-being of workers, especially women. The aims of this paper are: 1)
to determine whether there are differences in levels of part-time
workers' health and well-being by gender for the EU as a whole as well
as for each European country individually, and 2) to ascertain which
determinants impact female part-time workers' health and well-being. A
Synthetic Health and Well-being Indicator (SHWI) was designed using the
measure of P-2 distance approach as a methodological tool. In order to
explore the determinants for female part-timers, linear regressions were
used adopting a multilevel analysis based on data from the 2010 European
Working Conditions Survey.
The main results show that female part-time workers display lower levels
of health and well-being than their male counterparts in the EU. Factors
such as the nature of the work, difficulty making ends meet, perceived
job insecurity, social support and work-life balance play an essential
role in levels of female part-timers' health and well-being. We may
conclude that, in addition to greater institutional support for the
inclusion of women in the labour market, changes in public policies
designed to improve working conditions (better schedules and a greater
presence of non-manual skilled jobs) coupled with changes in family
policy, could play a key role in reducing gender differences.},

Abstract = {This study investigates the geographic effects on regional economic
growth in China under market reforms. We develop a model for the
regional growth pattern of the Chinese economy during the period,
characterized by foreign direct investment (FDI) and mobilization of
rural surplus labor. The FDI and labor migration are directed by the
differentials in the expected returns from the capital investment and in
the wage rate. The differentials are, to a large extent, explained by
geographic factors. In the context of market reforms and the open-door
policy, the spatial and topographic advantages of the coastal provinces
are realized. As a result, the returns to the capital investment in the
coastal provinces are higher than in the rest of the country, thus
attracting more FDIs and migrant labor into the region and causing the
growth disparity. Our empirical test supports this hypothesis. It finds
that geographic factors are statistically significant in explaining the
regional disparity in China. This disparity is mainly a coast versus
noncoast gap. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science Inc. All rights reserved.},

Title = {Hiring Agents' Beliefs: A Barrier to Employment of Autistics},
Journal = {SAGE OPEN},
Year = {2019},
Volume = {9},
Number = {3},
Month = {JUL},
Abstract = {Capable, qualified, and working-age (18-65) autistic adults experienced
an 83\% unemployment rate in the United States in 2017 resulting in
extreme poverty and severely decreased quality of life. Research dating
from 1957 to 2016 inferred hiring agents' beliefs were the cause. In
this multiple regression study, the nature of the relationship between
hiring agents' beliefs and their selection of qualified autistic
candidates was explored through Ajzen's theory of planned behavior to
determine what hiring agent's beliefs, if any, influence the selection
of qualified autistic candidates to fill open positions. I used the
Hiring Agent Survey Regarding Selection of Qualified Autistic Candidates
to anonymously gather data from hiring agents throughout the contiguous
United States. Known values of the independent variable, the beliefs
influencing hiring agents, were summed and clustered against the
TPB-predicted, percentage-based, continuous-level dependent variable,
which was hiring agents' selection of qualified autistic candidates.
This statistically significant regression analysis, F(45, 73) = 36.067,
p < .001, adj. R-2 = .930, predicted the degree to which each control,
normative, and behavioral belief influenced hiring agents' selection.
Hiring agents' desire for mandated comprehensive organizational
diversity, along with their negative stereotypical associations and fear
of embarrassment, signify a need for substantive policy and strategic
interventions. Results of such aggressive diversity initiatives could
considerably improve the nation's socioeconomic health and substantively
increase autistics' quality of life.},

Abstract = {We explore the role of workplace accommodations in reducing employment
barriers and improving the employment of people with disabilities. We do
so using data from the 2015 Survey of Disability and Employment on
people with disabilities who applied for vocational rehabilitation
services in three states. The results show that at least one third of
nonworking people with disabilities reported employment barriers that
could be addressed by workplace accommodations, such as lack of
transportation and an inaccessible workplace. We also find that
receiving certain types of workplace accommodations, such as help with
transportation, flexible work schedules, or a personal care attendant,
is positively correlated with being employed at the time of the survey.
Finally, people who are in poor health or have physical disabilities
were more likely to perceive workplace inaccessibility as a barrier but
less likely to have received accommodations in their current or most
recent job. This suggests that people with these characteristics may be
good candidates to target for greater access to workplace
accommodations.},

Abstract = {The Scandinavian welfare states are mature in the sense of having a high
level of standards for public provisions of welfare services as well as
a high replacement level for income transfers, especially for low-income
groups. In this welfare model, individuals have basic rights to welfare
services and social transfers independently of their ability to pay,
their labour-market history, etc. The financial viability of the model
relies on a high tax burden and a high level of labour-force
participation for males and females. Evaluated on the basis of
international comparisons of income levels and inequality, the model has
performed well. In a forward-looking perspective, however, the welfare
model faces problems that may put the financial viability of the model
at risk. Two important challenges are demographic changes and the
so-called growth dilemma (increased demand for services and leisure). We
discuss these issues using Denmark as an example and argue that while
these two challenges may be of the same order of magnitude, it is easier
to propose solutions to the demographic challenges than to the growth
dilemma which are consistent with the basic principles of the welfare
state.},

Abstract = {Perception of Equality between Men and Women in Slovakia. The paper
deals with the topic of gender equality perception in Slovakia. As an EU
member since May 2004, Slovakia has introduced many anti discriminatory
measures as a part of the accession process. An important part in the
evaluation of the success rate of such measures is the collection of
gender sensitive data. This study works with such data collected by a
project supported by the EQUAL initiative. A comparison of public
opinion perception of gender based inequalities in the Slovak labour
market between 2002 and 2006 shows a relatively stable picture although
some shifts towards the more ``household work doing men{''} and a dual
career family can be observed. Even though the feeling that women assert
their rights more is stronger then in 2002 some paradoxes do exist.
Contrary to the EU average the public opinion in Slovakia sees the NGOs
and the EU as the combatants of the discrimination rather than the
national governments or the parliament. The article concludes with an
appeal for collecting of sex segregated data and gender statistics as it
sees them being essential for social theory building as well as for
better social policy decisions. Sociologia 2007, Vol. 39 (No. 3:

Title = {Indigenous unrest and the contentious politics of social assistance in
Mexico},
Journal = {WORLD DEVELOPMENT},
Year = {2019},
Volume = {123},
Month = {NOV},
Abstract = {Is social assistance being used to contain ethnic and racial unrest in
developing countries? There is a growing literature on social assistance
policies in the Global South, but this literature largely focuses on
economic and demographic factors, underestimating the importance of
contentious politics. The case of Mexico shows that social assistance
programs are disproportionately directed to indigenous populations,
leading to diminished protest participation. Drawing on data from the
2010, 2012 and 2014 rounds of the Latin American Public Opinion Project,
we apply multivariate regression analysis to examine the determinants of
social assistance program participation in Mexico. Our study finds that
after controlling for income, household size, age, education, and
employment status, indigenous ethnic identity is a key determinant in
who benefits from social assistance in Mexico. Our results show that
high ethnic disparity in social assistance is not only due to higher
poverty rates among the indigenous population. Rather, indigenous people
receive more social assistance mainly because of their ethnic identity.
In addition, this study demonstrates that indigenous people who benefit
from social assistance programs are less likely to join anti-government
protests. We argue that this ethnic targeting in social assistance is a
result of the fact that indigenous unrest has become a political threat
for Mexican governments since the 1990s. These results yield substantive
support in arguing that the Mexican government uses social assistance to
contain indigenous unrest. The existing literature, which is dominated
by structuralist explanations, needs to strongly consider the
contentious political drivers of social assistance provision in the
Global South for a full grasp of the phenomenon. Social assistance in
Mexico is driven by social unrest and this suggests that similar ethnic,
racial, religious and contentious political factors should be examined
in other developing countries to understand social assistance
provisions. (C) 2019 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.},

Abstract = {PURPOSE Cancer disparities persist among medically underserved
populations despite widespread efforts to address them. We describe the
development of a framework for addressing cancer care disparities across
the cancer care continuum (CCC), guided by the CCC domains established
by the Institute of Medicine/National Academies of Sciences,
Engineering, and Medicine (IOM/NAS).
MATERIALS AND METHODS An environmental scan was conducted to identify
strategies and associated experts who are providing or have successfully
provided community- and/or patient-centric IOM/NAS-defined domain
standards to our target populations. A multistakeholder expert
roundtable working group was convened for framework development. A
premeeting survey informed agenda development, documented expert
practices for target populations, and identified priority areas for
meeting focus.
RESULTS The environmental scan identified 84 unique experts across 8
stakeholder groups and 44 patient organizations; 50 were invited to the
roundtable and 33 participated. They broadly represented disease sites,
geography, and experience with target populations and all CCC domains.
The premeeting survey (16 responses) identified coordination of care or
patient navigation (66.7\%), community engagement (60.0\%), and
healthcare system changes (53.3\%) as priority focus areas. The experts
identified access and treatment barriers or gaps within and between CCC
domains, specified key notable practices to address these, and developed
an actionable framework and recommendations for each priority focus
area.
CONCLUSION The framework and recommendations are intended to guide
researchers, healthcare leaders, advocates, community- and
patient-focused service organizations, and policy leaders to address and
promote health equity in cancer care access and treatment outcomes. (c)

Abstract = {The ``New Economy{''} features 24/7 employment, varied work schedules,
job insecurity, and lower benefits and wages, which lead to disparities
in experiences of security and sufficiency. This study investigates
sufficiency concerns in the New Economy; who is having trouble making
ends meet? Sufficiency concerns are subjective perceptions that work is
insufficient to meet basic needs and that family and work cannot be
coordinated in a stable way. This study uses the 2006 National Survey of
Religion and Family Life (N = 1,621) to analyze Americans' experiences
in the New Economy and how these experiences are related to work-family
conflict. Sufficiency concerns were experienced by a quarter to a third
of our respondents and were shaped by gender and structural inequality,
especially race and education. Moreover, sufficiency concerns strongly
predict work-family conflict, even when other controls are included.
This research furthers our understanding of work-family conflict and the
winners and losers in the New Economy.},

Abstract = {Mindfulness-based interventions (MBIs; e.g., MBSR, MBCT, ACT) have been
widely used and disseminated for treat-ment of myriad physical and
psychological problems. However, most MBIs have primarily been used with
middle-or upper-class White populations, with some instances where they
have been adapted for use with diverse populations (e.g.,
Burnett-Zeigler et al., 2016; Roth \& Robbins, 2004). However, even when
adapted, most MBIs have not explicitly addressed unique factors faced by
the target population, such as racial discrimination, unemployment, lack
of financial means, and other stressors. We developed and used an
iterative approach to refine a MBI group based on MBSR and MBCT, for a
racially and ethnically diverse population in the Bronx, considered by
the U.S. census to be the most diverse in the country. Based on a
trauma-informed care and centering people of color approach, we
developed a longer than usual (16 weeks) mindfulness-based group, where
core skills were broken down into smaller chunks to facilitate easier
incorpo-ration into daily life. We also used a longer duration and
1-hour weekly meeting time keeping in mind needs of the indi-viduals,
who often had limited time to participate due to work limitations and
other comorbid physical conditions. While acknowledging that the
individuals this group was catering to had experienced multiple
traumatic events, we sought to also highlight and further develop the
resilience and courage people in the Bronx community bring to the table.
We review two clinically rich case vignettes, and also discuss
recommendations for working with racially and economically marginal-ized
people, and include a call to action for health care providers and
organizations to engage in activism.},

Year = {2003},
Volume = {289},
Number = {8},
Pages = {996-1000},
Month = {FEB 26},
Abstract = {Context By improving the process of care, quality improvement efforts
have the potential to reduce race and sex disparities. However, little
is known about whether reductions actually occur. National quality
improvement activities targeting hemodialysis patients provide an
opportunity to examine this issue.
Objective To determine the effect of quality improvement efforts on race
and sex disparities among hemodialysis patients.
Design, Setting, and Subjects Longitudinal study of 58700 randomly
selected hemodialysis patients from throughout the United States in 1993
through 2000.
Intervention Medicare-funded quality improvement project involving
monitoring of patient outcomes, feedback of performance data, and
education of clinicians at dialysis centers.
Main Outcome Measures Changes in hemodialysis dose (Kt/V), anemia
management (hemoglobin level), and nutritional status (albumin level).
Results The proportion of all patients with an adequate hemodialysis
dose increased 2-fold. In 1993, 46\% of white patients and 36\% of black
patients received an adequate hemodialysis dose compared with 2000 when
the proportions were 87\% and 84\%, respectively. Thus, the gap between
white and black patients decreased from 10\% to 3\% (P<.001). The gap
between female and male patients decreased from 23\% to 9\% over the
same period (P=.008). The proportion of all patients with adequate
hemoglobin levels increased 3-fold. The proportion of all patients with
adequate albumin levels remained unchanged. Race and sex disparities in
anemia management and nutritional status did not change significantly.
Conclusions Quality improvement efforts have a variable impact on race
and sex disparities in health outcomes. Further work is needed to
determine how quality improvement methods can be targeted to reduce
health disparities.},

Abstract = {The covid-19 pandemic has caused the fall of economies, and the increase
of unemployment, poverty, and inequality. This has influenced getting
back to the concept of basic income, which seeks to transcend from a
welfare vision of the state into an equitable society that guarantees
the well-being of its population. The objective of this work is to carry
out an ex ante evaluation of the effects on poverty and inequality of
the implementation of basic income in Ecuador. The methodology consists
of a microsimulation exercise based on the Enemdu (Instituto Nacional de
Estadistica y Censos {[}INEC], 2019). The results indicate that by
assigning a monthly transfer equal to the value of the income poverty
line for adults and 30\% for minors, income poverty would decrease from
25 to 6\%; the middle tier would ascend to half of the population, and
the Gini coefficient would decrease from 0.473 to 0.391. This represents
a cost of 12.5\% of gross domestic product (GDP), with a need for
financing through additional resources of 51\%. Three main aspects are
distinguished to reflect on the implementation of a public policy of
this type: the political will of the authorities, a national agreement,
and a sustainable financing strategy.},

Volume = {69},
Pages = {156-172},
Month = {JUL},
Abstract = {There are high hopes that livelihood diversification could contribute to
goals of poverty reduction in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). This study uses
household panel data collected in 2008 and 2013, combined with a mixed
methodology to examine the regional and gender disparities, as well as
the determinants of change in livelihood diversification in the
agricultural regions of Nyeri and Kakamega in rural Kenya. The study
period was characterised by important structural changes in the
composition and sources of household cash incomes, with farm incomes
declining significantly, pushing female headed households into absolute
poverty. Whereas the contribution of nonfarm income to total household
cash incomes increased significantly, especially in Kakamega. The
econometric results show that there is a positive and significant
relationship between changes in household asset wealth and changes in
livelihood diversification at the regional level, implying that
diversification is mainly an accumulation strategy for wealthier farm
households. In addition, changes in livelihood diversification are
significantly correlated with the initial level of diversification,
household demographic characteristics such as age, gender, education
level, and hiring labour. Furthermore, increased access to agricultural
input credit and more secure land rights seem to promote specialisation
in farming rather than diversification. Whereas poverty has a negative
and significant effect on change in livelihood diversification. The
results have implications for development policy in rural Kenya
highlighting the need to harness the positive aspects of livelihood
diversification for poverty reduction, while reducing the negative
effects on poorer households by reducing asset entry barriers into
remunerative activities.},

Year = {2011},
Volume = {19},
Number = {4},
Pages = {882-899},
Month = {JUL},
Abstract = {This paper develops a composite participation index (PI) to identify
patterns of transport disadvantage in space and time. It is
operationalised using 157 weekly activity-travel diaries data collected
from three case study areas in rural Northern Ireland. A review of
activity space and travel behaviour research found that six dimensional
indicators of activity spaces were typically used including the number
of unique locations visited, distance travelled, area of activity
spaces, frequency of activity participation, types of activity
participated in, and duration of participation in order to identify
transport disadvantage. A combined measure using six individual indices
were developed based on the six dimensional indicators of activity
spaces, by taking into account the relativity of the measures for
weekdays, weekends, and for a week. Factor analyses were conducted to
derive weights of these indices to form the PI measure. Multivariate
analysis using general linear models of the different indicators/indices
identified new patterns of transport disadvantage. The research found
that: indicator based measures and index based measures are complement
each other; interactions between different factors generated new
patterns of transport disadvantage; and that these patterns vary in
space and time. The analysis also indicates that the transport needs of
different disadvantaged groups are varied. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All

Abstract = {The aim of this research was to study the factors that affected the
quality of working life of Thai and migrant workers and how labour
public management affected the quality of working life. This study
employed a mixed-methods research design which consisted of qualitative
and quantitative methodology. The first phase was qualitative research,
in-depth interviews and the focus group interviews were conducted with
Thai and Burmese workers. The data obtained in the first phase was
analyzed using content analysis. The second phase was quantitative
research in which questionnaires were collected from 400 participants.
The data obtained in this phase were analyzed using exploratory factor
analysis to describe the factors that affected the quality of working
life of Thai and Burmese migrant workers. The results showed that the
factors affecting the quality of life of both Thai and migrant workers
are the following: 1) government policies such as public health,
economic aspects, and education can improve the well-being of the
workers; 2) the quality of working life can be improved through the
support of the government labour administration; it can provide labour
protections and welfares following the international labour law and
diversity within the workplace according to the human rights principles;
3) government officials' attitudes toward migrant workers discriminate
against them. These findings can be used as the guidelines to develop
Thai and migrant workers' management. The results can be practical
knowledge to support the performance of government agencies in the
future.},

Abstract = {In his celebrated book on income inequality, Jan Tinbergen (1975) wrote
about the race between demand and supply in determining the evolution of
wages and inequality. The demand side of the recent labor market is well
understood. Skill-biased technical change favors skilled workers in many
different economic environments. The supply side is less well
understood. In the Netherlands, until recently, the supply side was
winning and the returns to education were declining or stagnant. The
exact reasons for this phenomenon are not well understood. Recently,
however, there is evidence that suggests that the returns to schooling
are increasing and that demand is outstripping supply, as it has done in
most developed countries around the world. This has produced rising wage
inequality. Unless more active supply side measures are undertaken, this
trend is likely to continue. This problem, joined with the persistent
problem of immigrant assimilation and the growing role of immigrants in
the Dutch economy, renews interest in the supply side of the labor
market. This lecture examines the determinants of the supply of skills
in the short run and the long run. It examines the roles of short-term
credit constraints and long-term family factors in fostering or
retarding skill accumulation. It summarizes the evidence on a number of
policy proposals to foster skills including early childhood programs,
programs to alleviate short-term financial pressure, job training and
second chance programs, and tax policies. This lecture stresses the
cumulative dynamic nature of skill production and the importance of
recognizing that skill begets skill in designing suitable policies to
reduce inequality and foster economic growth. While the evidence is
based on American data, the lessons are relevant for economies around
the world. Specific lessons for the Netherlands are emphasized.},

Abstract = {Purpose
Thailand is a developing economy underpinned by high levels of wealth
inequality and an ingrained patronage culture. This research aims to
examine how social enterprises (SEs) have been encouraged in Thailand in
recent years as ``micro-level challenges{''} to capitalism and their
potential impact in addressing inequality.
Design/methodology/approach
Through analysing policy documents and consultations, this paper traces
the development of Thai policies intended to encourage SEs' development.
Additionally, the paper uses case study interviews and documents to
demonstrate how SEs tackle inequality. From these, a framework is
developed, outlining SEs' roles and interventions to reduce inequality.
Findings
Thailand's new policy is in contrast to those countries where SEs face
policy neglect. Nevertheless, government has been slow to embed
processes to encourage new SEs. Despite SEs' ``challenge{''} to
capitalism, listed companies are increasingly providing in-kind and
financial support. The case study data shows SEs reduce inequality as
they work with rural citizens to increase their employment and incomes.
This work may also contribute to diminishing rural citizens' dependency
on political patronage.
Research limitations/implications
While SEs can address inequality gaps, the research includes only
existing SEs on specific lists. Nevertheless, the Thai experience will
be useful to other developing countries, especially those beset by
political patronage.
Originality/value
The research shows legislation is insufficient to support SE growth and
inequality reduction. The framework highlights the need for both
government policy attention and interventions from donors and companies
to support SEs' efforts.},

Abstract = {Introduction - The Centro de Orientacao ao Adolescente of Campinas
(Southeastern Brazil) maintains a program to qualify economically
disadvantaged adolescent students aged 15 to 18 years to enter the labor
market. Objective - To understand life projects of teenagers who became
mothers while participating in the program, in the period from 2003 to
2008, aiming to find the place of professional life in their life
trajectory before and after motherhood. Method - Eight young mothers
were interviewed, and a qualitative methodology was applied to the
analysis of the interviews. Results - The trajectories of study and work
were discontinued or adapted due to motherhood. Four young mothers
completed high school and none had entered university. Three did not
return to work and the rest had diverse work experiences. The reported
difficulties to enter the labor market were: inadequate instruments to
support the children's care, low income, lack of work experience,
presence of small children and little educational background. Final
Considerations - Teenage motherhood did not indicate the exclusion of
educational or work projects but indicated adjustments and the need for
a family and social support network. It was noted the need for public
policies targeted at the inclusion of youths in the labor market and at
support services such as nurseries. Also, the need for a change in
gender relations was demonstrated, with greater equality of rights as a
precondition for the inclusion of women, especially those who are
mothers, in the labor market.},

in Britain},

Year = {2019},
Volume = {22},
Number = {4},

Abstract = {The current rate of production and consumption of meat poses a problem
both to peoples' health and to the environment. This work aims to
develop a simulation of peoples' meat consumption in Britain using
agent-based modelling. The agents represent individual consumers. The
key variables that characterise agents include sex, age, monthly income,
perception of the living cost, and concerns about the impact of meat on
the environment, health, and animal welfare. A process of peer influence
is modelled with respect to the agents' concerns. Influence spreads
across two eating networks (i.e. co-workers and household members)
depending on the time of day, day of the week, and agents' employment
status. Data from a representative sample of British consumers is used
to empirically ground the model. Different experiments are run
simulating interventions of the application of social marketing
campaigns and a rise in price of meat. The main outcome is the mean
weekly consumption of meat per consumer. A secondary outcome is the
likelihood of eating meat. Analyses are run on the overall artificial
population and by subgroups. The model succeeded in reproducing observed
consumption patterns. Different sizes of effect on consumption emerged
depending on the application of a social marketing strategy or a price
increase. A price increase had a greater effect than environmental and
animalwelfare campaigns, while a health campaign had a larger impact on
consumers' behaviour than the other campaigns. An environmental campaign
targeted at consumers concerned about the environment produced a
boomerang effect increasing the consumption in the population rather
than reducing it. The results of the simulation experiments are mainly
consistent with the literature on food consumption providing support for
future models of public strategies to reduce meat consumption.},

Title = {Horizontal equity and efficiency at primary health care facilities in
rural Afghanistan: A seemingly unrelated regression approach},
Journal = {SOCIAL SCIENCE \& MEDICINE},
Year = {2013},
Volume = {89},
Pages = {25-31},
Month = {JUL},
Abstract = {Producing services efficiently and equitably are important goals for
health systems. Many countries pursue horizontal equity providing people
with the same illnesses equal access to health services by locating
facilities in remote areas. Staff are often paid incentives to work at
such facilities. However, there is little evidence on how many fewer
people are treated at remote facilities than facilities in more densely
settled areas. This research explores if there is an association between
the efficiency of health centers in Afghanistan and the remoteness of
their location.
Survey teams collected data on facility level inputs and outputs at a
stratified random sample of 579 health centers in 2005. Quality of care
was measured by observing staff interact with patients and determining
if staff completed a set of normative patient care tasks. We used
seemingly unrelated regression to determine if facilities in remote
areas have fewer Outpatient visits than other rural facilities. In this
analysis, one equation compares the number of outpatient visits to
facility inputs, while another compares quality of care to determinants
of quality.
The results indicate remote facilities have about 13\% fewer outpatient
visits than non-remote facilities, holding inputs constant. Our analysis
suggests that facilities in remote areas are realizing horizontal equity
since their clients are receiving comparable quality of care to those at
non-remote facilities. However, we find the average labor cost for a
visit at a remote facility is \$1.44, but only \$0.97 at other rural
facilities, indicating that a visit in a remote facility would have to
be `worth' 1.49 times a visit at a rural facility for there to be no
equity-efficiency trade-off. In determining where to build or staff
health centers, this loss of efficiency may be offset by progress toward
a social policy objective of providing services to disadvantaged rural
populations. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.},

Title = {Interventions targeting sexual and reproductive health and rights
outcomes of young people living with HIV: a comprehensive review of
current interventions from sub-Saharan Africa},
Journal = {GLOBAL HEALTH ACTION},
Year = {2015},
Volume = {8},
Abstract = {Background: A growing number of young people (ages 10-24) are living
with HIV (YPLWH) in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). These YPLWH have
particular needs and challenges related to their sexual and reproductive
health and rights (SRHR). Contextual factors including gender
inequalities, violence, stigma, and discrimination and lack of tailored
services undermine YPLWH's SRHR.
Objective: Understand the scope and impact of interventions targeting
YPLWH to improve SRH-related outcomes in SSA.
Design: We undertook a review to synthesise evaluated interventions
(qualitative, quantitative, or mixed methods) aimed at improving the SRH
outcomes of YPLWH in SSA with outcomes based on a World Health
Organization framework of comprehensive SRHR approaches for women living
with HIV. Using inclusion criteria, only six interventions were
identified.
Results: Interventions sought to improve a range of direct and indirect
SRH outcomes, including sexual behaviour, adherence, disclosure, and
mental health. Four overarching issues emerged: 1) all interventions
were structured according to cognitive behavioural therapy theories of
behaviour change - while showing promise they do not tackle the wider
gender, social, and economic contexts that shape YPLWH's SRH; 2)
`significant others' were included in two of the interventions, but
further work needs to consider how to leverage parental/guardian support
appropriately; 3) interventions only accessed young people who were
already linked to care, participants were likely to have better SRH
outcomes than those potentially more vulnerable YPLWH; and 4) none of
the interventions explored the sexuality of young people.
Conclusions: There have been a limited number of evaluated interventions
to strengthen SRH of YPLWH in SSA, and gaps exist in addressing the SRHR
needs of YPLWH. Intervention approaches require greater scope and depth,
including the need to address structural and contextual challenges.},

Title = {Enhancing Diversity and Inclusion in Clinical Trials},
Journal = {CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY \& THERAPEUTICS},
Year = {2023},
Month = {2023 JAN 11},
Abstract = {Women and people from most racial and ethnic groups in the United States
have historically been under-represented in clinical trials of
investigational medical products. Inadequate representation of these
groups may lead to an incomplete understanding of the safety and
efficacy of new drugs, devices, biologics, and vaccines, and limit the
generalizability of trial findings. As a result, new medical products
may not be beneficial to all people who need them, and existing
inequities in outcomes among various population groups may remain
unchanged or worsen, or new disparities may arise. Although much work
has focused on study-level strategies, research organizations must make
systemic changes to how clinical trials are envisioned and implemented
to achieve sustainable support for diversity and inclusion in clinical
trials. The Clinical Trials Transformation Initiative (CTTI) conducted
interviews with leaders at institutions that conduct clinical trials to
explore perspectives on organizational-level practices that promote
diversity and inclusion in clinical trials. Leaders described
motivations, such as an ethical and moral imperative; organizational
practices, such as staff investment and resource allocation; perceived
return on investments, such as better science; and deterrents, such as
cost and time. The CTTI also convened an expert meeting to discuss the
interview findings and provide guidance. We present the interview
findings and expert guidance in a framework that describes four key
areas-commitment, partnerships, accountability, and resources-on
sustaining organizational-level approaches for improving diversity and
inclusion in clinical trials, with the ultimate goal of advancing health
equity. Institutions who conduct and support clinical trials should
implement organizational-level approaches to improve equitable access
and diverse patient participation in clinical trials.},

Abstract = {This paper considers the policy environment and settlement support
services provided for migrants arriving in Australia and the challenges
faced by them when engaging in a complex policy environment. Using
structuration theory, it aims to understand how migrants' understanding
of settlement services relates to their exercise of agency and to the
institutional and social structures they draw upon to integrate in the
new society. Data were collected through 14 focus group discussions (N =
164), across seven migrant communities in Greater Western Sydney,
Australia. The paper highlights access to language services and literacy
programmes as contributing to the obstacles affecting migrants' ability
to achieve employment and draw on available settlement services. Three
main themes emerged: (i) language barrier; (ii) employment in the new
country; and (iii) settlement services. Language posed as a major
barrier to find suitable employment and overall settlement. While
non-recognition of prior skills or education, and a lack of local
employment experience, posed significant barriers for migrants looking
for work, participants also found settlement services had not been able
to ease this challenging process. Our findings suggest the need to
consider pre-migration experiences while planning for interventions that
are tailored to better integration of migrants into the Australian
workforce.},

Digital Financial Inclusion in a Cross-Country Setting},
Journal = {SUSTAINABILITY},
Year = {2023},
Volume = {15},
Number = {13},
Month = {JUL},
Abstract = {Financial inclusion (FI) for vulnerable populations, such as women, is
critical for achieving gender equality, women's empowerment, and
thereby, inclusive growth. Sustainable development goal 5 considers
gender equality as a fundamental right and views the empowerment of
women as a necessary step. Access to finance is a significant means to
empower a person. In this regard, the use of digital financial services
is of particular significance for women as it allows them easier access
to financial products for business and household needs. For implementing
policies to reduce financial exclusion of women, it is necessary to
first measure the extent of FI in society. While there are several
attempts to measure FI for the general population, there is limited
literature on the gender-based measurement of FI. This paper fills this
important research gap by developing a gender-based FI index (GFII)
focusing particularly on digital services and evaluating the performance
of countries across the globe (by considering 109 countries based on
data availability) in terms of a gender-based FI measure developed by
us. This index is developed using two separate indices, a digital
financial service usage index (DFI) and a conventional financial service
usage index (CFI). We calculate it for different countries for 2011,
2014, 2017, and 2021 using the Global Findex databaseIt helps us to
investigate the performance of different countries over the years in
ensuring the financial inclusion of women and how digital services are
penetrating over the years. One contribution of the paper is to relate
the Gender Development Index (GDI) and Gender Inequality Index (GII) of
countries, two well-known measures of inclusive and sustainable
development, with GFII and DFI for female (DFIF). This exercise shows
that while there is a positive correlation between these two sets of
indicators, there are a number of countries that are high (or low) in
gender development (or inequality) that need to improve their digital
FI. Interestingly, using the Global Findex database and the Feasible
Generalized Least Squares (FGLS) and instrumental variable panel data
model, we show that health, education, labour force participation rate,
and political empowerment of women significantly impact the digital
financial inclusion of women. The paper brings out relevant policy
suggestions for improving women's digital financial access and thereby
enhancing gender empowerment for faster and more inclusive growth.},

Abstract = {Purpose - (a) To examine ``native-born/immigrant'' (nativity) and
``national/foreign professional credentials'' (country of credentials)
as status factors in terms of expectation states theory, and (b) to lay
out a blueprint for a theory-based, experimental research agenda in this
area.
Design/methodology/approach - (for (b) above). I propose a research
program based on three types of expectation states experimental designs:
the open group-discussion, the rejection-of-influence standardized
setting, and the application-files format. All three incorporate
measures of either biased evaluations or double standards for
competence, or of both. I illustrate how these designs can be adapted to
assess, through the presence/absence of one or the other of those
practices, the separate impacts of nativity, country of professional
credentials and selected additional factors on the inference of task
competence. The need for and the advantages of systematic, experimental
work on this topic are highlighted.
Findings - (from (a) above). I review evidence of the status value of
nativity and country of credentials through data on evaluations,
employment, and earnings. My evidence originates in contemporary
Canadian studies that present results from surveys, interviews, census
records, and to a lesser extent - experiments, and these findings
support my claim.
Practical/social implications - The proposed research will facilitate
the development of interventions toward the standardized and unbiased
assessment of immigrants' foreign credentials.
Originality/value - The agenda I put forth constitutes a novel approach
to the study of nativity and country of credentials. The work will
extend the expectation states program, and enhance immigration research
both theoretically and methodologically.},

acquisition, using the Mental Health Inventory, a subscale of the SF-36
health questionnaire. Linear fixed-effects regression models were used
to estimate the effect of disability acquisition on mental health. We
tested for effect modification by two characteristics of people's
employment prior to disability acquisition: occupational skill level and
contract type. Multiple imputation using chained equations was used to
handle missing data. Results Disability acquisition was associated with
a substantial decline in mental health score (estimated mean difference:
- 4.3, 95\% CI - 5.0, - 3.5). There was evidence of effect modification
by occupational skill level, with the largest effects seen for those in
low-skilled jobs (- 6.1, 95\% CI - 7.6, - 4.5), but not for contract
type. Conclusions The findings highlight the need for social and health
policies that focus on increasing employment rates, improving the
sustainability of employment, and providing employment services and
education and training opportunities for people who acquire a
disability, particularly for people in low-skilled occupations, to
reduce the mental health inequalities experienced by people with
disabilities.},

Abstract = {Healthcare workers play a critical role in providing medical care to
individuals and communities. Due to the nature of their work, compared
to the general public, healthcare workers are at a higher risk of
exposure to infectious diseases, including vaccine-preventable ones. The
routine vaccination of healthcare workers in low- and
lower-middle-income countries is a critical issue. Vaccination not only
protects healthcare workers from contracting infectious diseases but
also prevents the spread of diseases to the patients, reduces healthcare
costs, increases healthcare workers' morale and productivity, and
demonstrates a commitment to health and safety. However, the
implementation of policies for routine vaccination of healthcare workers
in low- and lower-middle-income countries faces several challenges,
including lack of funds, lack of evidence-based data, vaccination
hesitancy through misguided beliefs, and low literacy among healthcare
workers. In this article, we discuss the need for a policy for routine
vaccination of healthcare workers in low- and lower-middle-income
countries. We also analyse the barriers and recommendations for policy
implementation and the role of partnerships. Additionally, we highlight
the main points of the World Federation of Public Health Associations'
policy statement `Protecting the Healthcare Workforce in Low- and
Middle-Income Countries through Vaccination' which has the potential to
drive policy-makers and healthcare organisations worldwide into
prioritising routine vaccination of healthcare workers in low- and
lower-middle-income countries.},

Volume = {39},
Number = {2, SI},
Pages = {299-317},

Abstract = {This paper provides an overview of the key factors impacting upon the
gender pay gap in the UK, Europe and Australia. Forty years after the
implementation of the first equal pay legislation, the pay gap remains a
key aspect of the inequalities women face in the labour market. While
the overall pay gap has tended to fall in many countries over the past
forty years, it has not closed; in some countries it has been stubbornly
resistant, or has even widened. In reviewing the collection of papers
that make up this special issue we identify four broad themes with which
to group the contributions and draw out the explanations for diverse
trends: theoretical and conceptual debates; legal developments and their
impacts; wage setting institutions and changing employer demands; and
newly emerging pay inequalities between and within educational and
ethnic groups. Across the four themes we underline how the trends in the
gender pay gap capture the dynamism of inequalities, as the market power
of different groups and stakeholders changes over times. Three key
dimensions emerge from the papers to provide a framework for future
research and policy discourse: the relationship between litigation and
bargaining strategies; the interaction between wage-setting institutions
and new organisational practices; and the increasing and range of
diversity or equality strands competing for equal treatment. We conclude
that progress towards closing the gender pay gap will not be easy, will
require a collective effort of various actors, and will not be quick.},

Abstract = {Health is a comprehensive phenomenon with many determinants. The
influence of environmental conditions on human health poses challenges
for public health scientists. One of the main issues is the availability
and relevance of the data on public health, including such indicators as
morbidity and decease prevalence. In this study, we overcome this
obstacle by using micro data on self-reported health from the Russia
Longitudinal Monitoring Survey of Higher School of Economics. The study
analyses the influence of environmental conditions on individual
self-rated health in Russia, taking into account the heterogeneity of
coefficients among self-rated health levels. We used generalised ordered
probit model with random effects and embedded procedure for parallel
line assumption violation testing. The characteristics of air, water and
the quantity of pollutants in each region were considered as independent
factors. The study showed significant negative influence of
environmental factors on self-rated health throughout Russia. It is also
demonstrated that higher self-rated health estimates are given by
respondents whose level of education is no lower than that of vocational
or trade school, who are married, and who are regularly engaged in
physical activity. The results obtained can be used to improve regional
state programmes aimed at improving the quality of life of the
population in groups with different levels of health, for example, to
the development and targeting of a set of health policy measures.
Additionally, these findings can be utilised in programmes to improve
the quality of the environment, which can increase the overall level of
self-assessment of health in a particular region.},

Title = {Remote mental health care interventions during the COVID-19 pandemic: An
umbrella review},
Journal = {BEHAVIOUR RESEARCH AND THERAPY},
Year = {2022},
Volume = {159},
Month = {DEC},
Abstract = {Mitigating the COVID-19 related disruptions in mental health care
services is crucial in a time of increased mental health disorders.
Numerous reviews have been conducted on the process of implementing
technology-based mental health care during the pandemic. The research
question of this umbrella review was to examine what the impact of
COVID-19 was on access and delivery of mental health services and how
mental health services have changed during the pandemic. A systematic
search for systematic reviews and meta-analyses was conducted up to
August 12, 2022, and 38 systematic reviews were identified. Main
disruptions during COVID-19 were reduced access to outpatient mental
health care and reduced admissions and earlier discharge from inpatient
care. In response, synchronous telemental health tools such as
videoconferencing were used to provide remote care similar to pre-COVID
care, and to a lesser extent asynchronous virtual mental health tools
such as apps. Implementation of synchronous tools were facilitated by
time-efficiency and flexibility during the pandemic but there was a lack
of accessibility for specific vulnerable populations. Main barriers
among practitioners and patients to use digital mental health tools were
poor technological literacy, particularly when preexisting inequalities
existed, and beliefs about reduced therapeutic alliance particularly in
case of severe mental disorders. Absence of organizational support for
technological implementation of digital mental health interventions due
to inadequate IT infrastructure, lack of funding, as well as lack of
privacy and safety, challenged implementation during COVID-19. Reviews
were of low to moderate quality, covered heterogeneously designed
primary studies and lacked findings of implementation in low- and
middle-income countries. These gaps in the evidence were particularly
prevalent in studies conducted early in the pandemic. This umbrella
review shows that during the COVID-19 pandemic, practitioners and mental
health care institutions mainly used synchronous telemental health
tools, and to a lesser degree asynchronous tools to enable continued
access to mental health care for patients. Numerous barriers to these
tools were identified, and call for further improvements. In addition,
more high quality research into comparative effectiveness and working
mechanisms may improve scalability of mental health care in general and
in future infectious disease outbreaks.},

India Evidences from a village-based study in Uttar Pradesh},
Journal = {INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF SOCIAL ECONOMICS},
Year = {2017},
Volume = {44},
Number = {6},
Pages = {774-796},
Abstract = {Purpose - The purpose of this paper is to analyse the social and
economic disparities across social groups in rural Uttar Pradesh. The
paper demonstrates that the structure of the rural economy in India is
characterised by deeply ingrained prejudices and social discrimination.
The four-village study undertaken in one of the most populated states in
India, Uttar Pradesh, clearly reveals that there is a huge disparity in
terms of various social and economic indicators and that the so-called
high growth has hardly helped in bettering their lives.
Design/methodology/approach - The paper is based on primary data
collected from the Census survey of villages exploring socio-economic
disparities across social groups by using decomposition models.
Findings - The results evidently lend credence to the postulations that
a large proportion of the disadvantaged groups are prone to multiple
deprivations, both in the society and in labour markets. The inquiry
reveals this phenomenon clearly.
Research limitations/implications - From the policy point of view, it is
therefore imperative to ensure the direct and focussed provision of
basic human requirements in terms of education, employment and income of
the state. The implementation of direct policy interventions is an
absolute necessity if the state has to guarantee convergence and the
inclusive growth process on a sustained basis.
Originality/value - This paper fulfils an identified need to study the
inequality among the social groups in terms of education, employment,
income and livelihood opportunities in selected villages of four
districts of Uttar Pradesh.},

Abstract = {Purpose: Despite being in high numbers in medical colleges, only a small
proportion of women join the workforce and even fewer reach leadership
positions in Pakistan. Organizations like United Nations and Women
Global Health are working towards closing the gender gap. The study aims
to explore the enablers and barriers for women in healthcare leadership
and to explore the strategies to promote women in leadership positions
in Pakistan's specific societal culture. Methods: In this qualitative
exploratory study, semi-structured interviews of 16 women holding
leadership positions in the health-care profession, ie, medical and
dental (basic or clinical sciences) were included. The data were
collected until saturation was achieved. The data were analyzed in MS
Excel. Deductive and Inductive thematic analysis was done.Results:
Thirty-eight codes were generated that were combined in the form of
categories. The major themes that emerged from the data were: elevating
factors, the shackles holding them back, let us bring them up and
implicit bias. Elevating factors were intrinsic motivation and
exceptional qualifications, while the shackles were related to gender
bias, male insecurities, and lack of political background. It was
noteworthy that differences in gender roles were highly defined by
culture and religion.Conclusion: There is a need to change the
perception of South Asian society and redefine gender roles through
media and individual attempts. Women must take charge of their choices
and believe in themselves. The institutional policies to help promote
gender equality would be mentorship programs for new faculty,
gender-responsive training for everyone, equal opportunities for all,
and maintaining gender diversity on all committees.},

Title = {Who's enrolled in the State Children's Health Insurance Program (SCHIP)?
An overview of findings from the Child Health Insurance Research
Initiative (CHIRI)},
Journal = {PEDIATRICS},
Year = {2003},
Volume = {112},
Number = {6, S},
Pages = {E499-E507},
Month = {DEC},
Abstract = {Background. The State Children's Health Insurance Program ( SCHIP) was
enacted in 1997 to provide health insurance coverage to uninsured
low-income children from families who earned too much to be eligible for
Medicaid.
Objectives. To develop a `` baseline{''} portrait of SCHIP enrollees in
5 states ( Alabama, Florida, Kansas, Indiana, and New York) by
examining: 1) SCHIP enrollees' demographic characteristics and health
care experiences before enrolling in SCHIP, particularly children with
special health care needs ( CSHCN), racial and ethnic minority children,
and adolescents; 2) the quality of the care adolescents received before
enrollment; and 3) the changes in enrollee characteristics as programs
evolve and mature.
Methods. Each of 5 projects from the Child Health Insurance Research
Initiative ( CHIRI) surveyed new SCHIP enrollees as identified by state
enrollment data. CHIRI investigators developed the CHIRI common core ( a
set of survey items from validated instruments), which were largely
incorporated into each survey. Bivariate and multivariate analyses were
conducted to ascertain whether there were racial and ethnic disparities
in access to health care and differences between CSHCN and those
without. Current Population Survey data for New York State were used to
identify secular trends in enrollee characteristics.
Results. Most SCHIP enrollees ( 65\% in Florida to 79\% in New York)
resided in families with incomes less than or equal to 150\% of the
federal poverty level. Almost half of SCHIP enrollees lived in single-
parent households. A majority of SCHIP parents had not had education
beyond high school, and in 2 states ( Alabama and New York) similar to
25\% had not completed high school. The vast majority of children lived
in households with a working adult, and in a substantial proportion of
households both parents worked. Children tended to be either insured for
the entire 12 months or uninsured the entire 12 months before enrolling
in SCHIP. Private insurance was the predominant form of insurance before
enrollment in SCHIP in most states, but 23.3\% to 51.2\% of insured
children had Medicaid as their most recent insurance.
Health Care Use and Unmet Needs Before SCHIP. The vast majority of all
SCHIP enrollees had a usual source of care ( USC) during the year before
SCHIP. The proportion of children who changed their USC after enrolling
in SCHIP ranged from 29\% to 41.3\%. A large proportion of SCHIP
enrollees used health services during the year before SCHIP, with some
variability across states in the use of health care. Nevertheless, 32\%
to almost 50\% of children reported unmet needs.
CSHCN. The prevalence of CSHCN in SCHIP ( between 17\% and 25\%) in the
study states was higher than the prevalence of CSHCN reported in the
general population in those states. In many respects, CSHCN were similar
to children without special health care needs, but CSHCN had poorer
health status, were more likely to have had unmet needs, and were more
likely to use the emergency department, mental health care, specialty
care, and acute care in the year before enrolling in SCHIP than children
without special health care needs.
Race and Ethnicity. A substantial proportion of SCHIP enrollees were
black non- Hispanic or Hispanic children ( Alabama: 34\% and < 1\%;
Florida: 6\% and 26\%; Kansas: 12\% and 15\%; and New York: 31\% and
45\%, respectively). Minority children were poorer, in poorer health,
and less likely to have had a USC or private insurance before enrolling
in SCHIP. The prevalence and magnitude of the disparities varied among
the states.
Quality of Care for Adolescents. Seventy- three percent of adolescent
SCHIP enrollees engaged in one or more risk behaviors ( ie, feeling sad
or blue; alcohol, tobacco, and drug use; having sexual intercourse; and
not wearing seat belts). Although almost 70\% of adolescents reported
having had a preventive care visit the previous year, a majority of them
did not receive counseling in each of 4 counseling areas. Controlling
for other factors, having a private, confidential visit with the
physician was associated with an increased likelihood ( 2 - 3 times more
likely) that the adolescent received counseling for 3 of 4 counseling
areas.
Trends Over Time. New York SCHIP enrollees in 2001, compared with 1994
enrollees in New York's SCHIP- precursor child health insurance program,
were more likely to be black or Hispanic, older, from New York City, and
from families with lower education, income, and employment levels. A
greater proportion of 2001 enrollees was uninsured for some time in the
year before enrollment, was insured by Medicaid, and lacked a USC.
Secular trends in the low- income population in the state did not seem
to be responsible for these differences. Program modifications during
this time period that may be related to the shift in enrollee
characteristics include changes to benefits, outreach and marketing
efforts, changes in the premium structure, and the advent of a single
application form for multiple public programs.
Conclusions. SCHIP enrollees are a diverse group, and there was
considerable variation among the 5 study states. Overall, SCHIP
enrollees had substantial and wide- ranging health care needs despite
high levels of prior contact with the health care system. A sizable
minority of SCHIP enrollees has special health care needs. There is
racial and ethnic diversity in the composition of enrollees as well,
with racial and ethnic disparities present. The quality of care
adolescents received before enrollment in SCHIP was suboptimal, with
many reporting unmet health care needs and not receiving recommended
counseling. The characteristics of SCHIP enrollees can be expected to
change as SCHIP programs evolve and mature.
Policy Implications. 1) Benefits should be structured to meet the needs
of SCHIP enrollees, which are comparable to Medicaid enrollees' needs in
many respects. 2) Provider networks will have to be broad if continuity
of care is to be achieved. 3) Multiple outreach strategies should be
used, including using providers to distribute information about SCHIP.
4) The quality of care delivered to vulnerable populations ( eg,
minority children, CSHCN, and adolescents) should be monitored. 5)
States and health plans should actively promote quality health care with
the goal of improving the care received by SCHIP enrollees before
enrollment. 6) States will have to craft policies that fit their local
context. 7) Collecting baseline information on SCHIP enrollees on a
continuous basis is important, because enrollee characteristics and
needs can change, and many vulnerable children are enrolling in SCHIP.},

Abstract = {The World Health Organisation policy of improving retention of rural
health care practitioners recommended that continuing medical education
(CME) programmes addressing their needs should be accessible and
delivered where they live and work. This cross-sectional study involved
a self-administered anonymous questionnaire completed by GPs attending
CME small groups (CME-SGL) in Ireland. All GPs attending CME-SGL in a
one-month period were invited to complete the questionnaire which
examined demographic details, distance to travel to educational
meetings/nearest regional hospital, barriers to accessing continuing
education, whether CME-SGL met their educational needs, morale and
professional isolation.
A total of 1,686 responses were collected, of which 332 (19.6\%) were
from rural GPs. Of these, 289 (87\%) reported that their educational
needs were fully or mostly met by attending CME-SGL. Compared to urban
doctors, rural GPs had further to travel to CME-SGL meetings, were
further from the nearest regional hospital, and reported increased
barriers to accessing continuing education. Rural GPs reported lower
morale and greater levels of professional isolation. Despite
considerable barriers to accessing continuing education, rural GPs
reported that CME-SGL meets their educational needs. Future research
should focus on the potential positive impact this may have on
professional isolation and morale.},

Abstract = {Objective The Lighthouse Project (2017-2018) explored the role that
faith-based organizations (FBOs) might play as resilience hubs for
climate-related stresses and extreme weather emergencies in
disadvantaged urban environments of three cities. This paper discusses
the role that public health played in these initiatives and makes an
appeal for more participatory, community-engaged public health in light
of the persistent gaps in its approach to equitable climate change
preparedness.
Methods Pilots were initiated in the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area
(GTHA): Brampton's Emergency Managers offered pre-selected FBO
volunteers specialized training to be part of the city's emergency
response in establishing FBO sites as emergency muster stations. An
environmental organization in Hamilton explored how its existing
networks could rally around a local social resilience challenge, and a
community organizer in Toronto undertook network building to support
mostly newcomer populations in one inner-city neighbourhood. All pilots
used a mix of cold calling, workshops, municipal presentations, and
participation in local programming and public events. Two convened local
working groups.
Results By the end of the pilot, Brampton's Emergency Management Office
had made one contractual relationship with an FBO and its volunteers. In
Hamilton, a multi-stakeholder network emerged to support the climate
preparedness of agencies serving local vulnerable populations. In
Toronto, a residents' working group was established to address neighbour
well-being and emergency response in one apartment tower. Work in all
three communities is ongoing.
Conclusion Multi-stakeholder support for community organizations and
local volunteers can enable partnerships in neighbourhood-level climate
resilience-before, during and after extreme weather events. Public
Health, while not typically top-of-mind as a key ally in this work, is
well positioned to make a contribution. Consistent with place-based
approaches, an emergent community development design enabled community
animators to catalyze collaborations to suit the on-the-ground realities
of each site.},

accessibility for employees with autism},
Journal = {RESEARCH IN DEVELOPMENTAL DISABILITIES},
Year = {2021},
Volume = {114},
Month = {JUL},
Abstract = {Background, aims and methods: Participation in employment by individuals
with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) remains restricted despite their
high motivation and evident abilities. Challenges to employment result
from personal characteristics and environmental barriers. This
phenomenological research explores the accessibility of a competitive
work environment according to the perceptions of adults with ASD.
Procedures and outcomes: We conducted in-depth interviews with 19
employees with ASD, followed by a thematic content analysis. Three
themes emerged: (a) the employees' motivation for employment, (b)
challenges and abilities at work, and (c) workplace accessibility (types
of accommodations, implementation process).
Results and conclusions: The findings contribute a classification of
accommodations that addresses the core characteristics of
autism-challenges as well as abilities and motivations for employment.
Four types of accommodations were identified: job-performance
communication, attitudes and interpersonal communication, daily
workplace routines, and physical and sensory environments. Hence, this
study supports the centrality of environmental factors in successful
employment of individuals with ASD.
Implications: This study presents an evidence-based foundation for
autism-related workplace accessibility. It offers an approach to enhance
employees' abilities, strengths, and motivation for employment, as well
as to decrease barriers and challenges. The findings may expand
organizational policies regarding accessibility and thereby anchor
workplace accommodations within organizations' corporate cultures.},

Title = {Racial/Ethnic Residential Segregation, Socioeconomic Inequality, and Job
Accessibility by Public Transportation Networks in the United States},
Journal = {SPATIAL DEMOGRAPHY},
Year = {2021},
Volume = {9},
Number = {3, SI},

Month = {OCT},
Abstract = {This paper examines the access that neighborhoods have to jobs via
public transit, if it varies by race/ethnicity, and what difference it
makes in terms of socioeconomic outcomes. Decades of research has argued
that important sites of employment are often not located in or are
inaccessible to racial/ethnic minority neighborhoods. Here, we examine
this proposition and take into account how public transit may play into
this process. On the one hand, public transit as a public good may have
the power to overcome the liabilities of place. If we can build
transportation systems that give all neighborhoods comparable access to
jobs, part of the spatial mismatch problem may be corrected. On the
other hand, if public transit is built in such a way that certain
racial/ethnic groups are benefiting, but not others, access alone is not
enough to achieve parity. Using the 2013-2017 American Community Survey
and the 2017 Access Across America Transit study, we examine how
neighborhood racial/ethnic composition is related to job accessibility
and socioeconomic outcomes at the block group level for 49 of the 50
largest metropolitan areas in the United States. We find that Black and
Latino neighborhoods have access to fewer jobs via public transit, and
that they also have lower median household income and a higher
unemployment rate, net of access to jobs. Access to more jobs via mass
transit is related to higher incomes in White block group clusters, but
has no impact on household incomes in Black and Latino clusters. This
suggests that public transit as implemented serves to aggravate existing
inequalities and is not currently acting as a policy tool to ameliorate
inequality.},

Title = {Is gender inequity a risk factor for men reporting poorer self-rated
health in the United States?},
Journal = {PLOS ONE},
Year = {2018},
Volume = {13},
Number = {7},
Month = {JUL 17},
Abstract = {Theoretical approaches suggest that gender inequity increases men's
health risks. Previous findings from the United States support this
contention, however only a small number of health outcomes have been
explored. This study extends the range of health outcomes examined by
using a cross-sectional, multilevel analysis to investigate whether
measures of state-level gender inequity are predictors of men's
self-rated health. Data were derived primarily from the Behavioral Risk
Factor Surveillance System and the full-case data set included 116,594
individuals nested within 50 states. Gender inequity was measured with
nine variables: higher education, women's reproductive rights, abortion
provider access, elected office, management, business ownership, labour
force participation, earnings and relative poverty. Covariates at the
individual level were age, income, education, race/ethnicity, marital
status and employment status. Covariates at the state level were income
inequality and gross domestic product per capita. In fully adjusted
models for all-age men the reproductive rights (OR 1.06 95\% Cl
1.01-1.11), abortion provider access (OR 1.11 95\% Cl 1.05-1.16) and
earnings (OR 1.06 95\% Cl 1.02-1.12) measures all predicted an increased
risk of men reporting poorer self-rated health for each 1 standard
deviation increase in the gender inequity z-score. The most consistent
effect was seen for the 65+ age group where the reproductive rights (OR
1.09 95\% Cl 1.03-1.16), abortion provider access (OR 1.15 95\% Cl
1.09-1.21), elected office (OR 1.06 95\% Cl 1.01-1.11) and earnings (OR
1.10 95\% Cl 1.04-1.16) measures all showed a significant effect. These
findings provide evidence that some aspects of gender inequity increase
the risk of poorer self-rated health in men. The study contributes to a
growing body of literature implicating gender inequity in men's health
patterns.},

Title = {Is gender policy related to the gender gap in external cause and
circulatory disease mortality? A mixed effects model of 22 OECD
countries 1973-2008},
Journal = {BMC PUBLIC HEALTH},
Year = {2012},
Volume = {12},
Month = {NOV 12},
Abstract = {Background: Gender differences in mortality vary widely between
countries and over time, but few studies have examined predictors of
these variations, apart from smoking. The aim of this study is to
investigate the link between gender policy and the gender gap in
cause-specific mortality, adjusted for economic factors and health
behaviours.
Methods: 22 OECD countries were followed 1973-2008 and the outcomes were
gender gaps in external cause and circulatory disease mortality. A
previously found country cluster solution was used, which includes
indicators on taxes, parental leave, pensions, social insurances and
social services in kind. Male breadwinner countries were made reference
group and compared to earner-carer, compensatory breadwinner, and
universal citizen countries. Specific policies were also analysed. Mixed
effect models were used, where years were the level 1-units, and
countries were the level 2-units.
Results: Both the earner-carer cluster (ns after adjustment for GDP) and
policies characteristic of that cluster are associated with smaller
gender differences in external causes, particularly due to an
association with increased female mortality. Cluster differences in the
gender gap in circulatory disease mortality are the result of a larger
relative decrease of male mortality in the compensatory breadwinner
cluster and the earner-carer cluster. Policies characteristic of those
clusters were however generally related to increased mortality.
Conclusion: Results for external cause mortality are in concordance with
the hypothesis that women become more exposed to risks of accident and
violence when they are economically more active. For circulatory disease
mortality, results differ depending on approach - cluster or indicator.
Whether cluster differences not explained by specific policies reflect
other welfare policies or unrelated societal trends is an open question.
Recommendations for further studies are made.},

Abstract = {Despite the UK's recent history of promoting the social inclusion and
equality of men and women with learning disabilities they remain a
significantly disadvantaged group. Compared with their non-disabled

inclusion of men and women with learning disabilities can be promoted
solely through policies that emphasise inclusion through work and the

Abstract = {Background Existing research documents disparities in CKD by age, race
and ethnicity, and access to health care. However, research on CKD in
lesbian, gay, bisexual, and trans (LGBT1) older adults, despite their
higher rates of diabetes, heart disease, smoking, and alcohol use, is
limited.
Methods Pooled data from the Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System
(2014-2019) for 22,114 LGBT1 adults and 748,963 heterosexuals aged 50
and older were used to estimate the prevalence of self-reported kidney
disease. Logistic regressions were used to compare older adults by
sexual orientation.
Results Older LGBT1 men (adjusted odds ratio=1.3; 95\% confidence
interval {[}CI], 1.09-1.54) were more likely than their heterosexual
counterparts to report kidney disease, after controlling for
sociodemographic factors, health behaviors, access to health care, and
self-reported coronary heart disease, HIV, and diabetes; LGBT1 men and
women also reported higher incidences of known risk factors for CKD. For
example, both LGBT1 men (odds ratio {[} OR]=1.39; {[}95\% CI],
1.26-1.54) and LGBT+ women (OR=1.39; {[}95\% CI], 1.25-1.55) were more
likely to be smokers and have a higher incidence of activity
limitations, adverse health outcomes, and limited access to health care,
housing, and employment.
Conclusion These results support increasing access to screenings for CKD
risk factors, providing preventative education and culturally responsive
and affirming care, and addressing other societal drivers of
vulnerability in older LGBT1 adults. The findings also support the value
of interventions that address the interaction between CKD risk factors
and the social marginalization that older LGBT1 adults experience.},

Abstract = {The present work studies how community health workers (CHWs) perform the
role of educator and how this relates to the implementation of other CHW
roles, skills, and qualities. Prior studies on this topic have relied on
interviews or focus groups rather than analysis of CHW interactions. We
conducted a thematic analysis of 24 transcripts of conversations
occurring between CHWs and participants during home visits as part of
the Mexican American Trial of Community Health Workers, a randomized
controlled trial that improved clinical outcomes among low-income
Mexican American adults with type 2 diabetes. Three themes describing
interactions related to diabetes self-management education accounted for
about half of encounter content. The other half of encounter content was
dedicated to interactions not explicitly related to diabetes described
by 4 subthemes. In a successful CHW intervention, focused educational
content was balanced with other interactions. Interactions not
explicitly related to diabetes may have provided space for the
implementation of core CHW roles, skills, and qualities other than
educator, particularly those related to relationship building. It is
important that interventions provide CHWs with sufficient time and
flexibility to develop strong relationships with participants.},

Abstract = {Inspired by the launch of the African Women's Decade (AWD) in 2010, the
Beijing Platform for Action (1995), and more recently the adoption of
the African Union Agenda 2063 and the global commitment, the United
Nations 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and its core principle
to ``leave no one behind{''}, Make Every Woman Count's (MEWC) annual
report evaluates the progress, or lack thereof, being made to include
and promote the rights of women at the country, regional, and
Pan-African levels. MEWC aims to shed light on the situation of women's
rights in Africa through the collection of disaggregated data. MEWC has
compiled an annual report to track the progress of the AWD commitments
since 2011. A presentation of progress and developments for each country
on the continent will be made in relation to the AWD benchmarks of
women's equality until 2020. In past years, the AWD Report tracked
progress on several different issues affecting women. However, for
2017-2018, MEWC focused solely on one area: Women's participation in
decision-making processes and leadership to place the spotlight on the
situation of women leaders in Africa in all sectors, including women
MPs, women ministers, women in the judiciary and women in the private
sector. MEWC believes that the collection of data is an important tool
that can be used by human rights advocates, academics, national and
international organisations, governments, and activists to work for the
achievement of gender equality. This article presents the work of MEWC,
an emerging digital space for African women's voice, and shares some of
the findings of its recent report `African Women's Decade 2010-2020:
Women's participation in decision-making and leadership'. Last, based on
the report's outcomes, it explores ways to address the gender
inequalities in leadership.},

Abstract = {This paper analyses the barriers to work faced by long- and short-term
unemployed people in remote rural labour markets. Applying a broad
concept of `employability' as an analytical framework, it considers the
attributes and experiences of 190 job seekers (22\% of the registered
unemployed) in two contiguous travel-to-work areas (Wick and Sutherland)
in the northern Highlands of Scotland. The labour demand side of
employability is also considered through interviews with 17 employers.
The paper identifies the specific job search and other employment
problems faced by unemployed people living in isolated rural communities
(labour supply); considers the perspective of employers (labour demand);
and discusses potential policies to address the needs of unemployed
individuals. Many job seekers were found to have gaps in generic and
job-specific skills, whilst some (particularly males) were reluctant to
pursue opportunities in non-traditional sectors of the economy. The
importance of informal job search and recruitment networks (which may
exclude the young and the long-term unemployed) and the lack of access
to formal employment services in remote areas also potentially
contributed to labour market disadvantage. Holistic and client-centred
solutions are required to address the barriers faced by these rural job
seekers, including adult basic education provision, flexible training
focussing on skills and work experience with particular relevance to the
new rural economy, and support services for job seekers in isolated
areas. These supply-side policies should be combined with demand-side
measures to stimulate endogenous and exogenous growth in isolated local
economies. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.},

Abstract = {The first 25 years of universal public health insurance in Canada saw
major reductions in income-related health inequalities related to
conditions most amenable to medical treatment. While equity issues
related to health care coverage and access remain important, the social
determinants of health (SDH) represent the next frontier for reducing
health inequalities, a point reinforced by the work of the World Health
Organization's Commission on Social Determinants of Health. In this
regard, Canada's recent performance suggests a bleak prognosis. Canada's
track record since the 1980s in five respects related to social
determinants of health: (a) the overall redistributive impact of tax and
transfer policies; (b) reduction of family and child poverty; (c)
housing policy; (d) early childhood education and care; and (e)
urban/metropolitan health policy have reduced Canada's capacity to
reduce existing health inequalities. Reasons for this are explored and
means of advancing this agenda are outlined. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ireland

Abstract = {Purpose As coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) spreads globally, the
economic and health consequences are disproportionately affecting
marginalized workers. However, countries' existing labor and social
security laws often exclude the most vulnerable workers from coverage,
exacerbating existing inequalities. Guaranteeing the rights to adequate
income even when ill, decent working conditions and nondiscrimination in
constitutions may provide a foundation for protecting rights
universally, safeguarding against counterproductive austerity measures,
and providing a normative foundation for equality and inclusion as
economies recover. The purpose of this article is to examine the
prevalence of these rights globally and assess some of their early
impacts amid the pandemic. Design/methodology/approach The authors
created and analyzed a database of constitutional rights for all 193
United Nations member states. All constitutions were double coded by an
international multidisciplinary, multilingual team of researchers.
Findings This study finds that 54\% of countries take some approach to
guaranteeing income security in their constitutions, including 23\% that
guarantee income security during illness. Thirty-one percent guarantee
the right to safe working conditions. Only 36\% of constitutions
explicitly guarantee at least some aspect of nondiscrimination at work.
With respect to equal rights broadly, constitutional protections are
most common on the basis of sex (85\%), followed by religion (78\%),
race/ethnicity (76\%), socioeconomic status (59\%), disability (27\%),
citizenship (22\%), sexual orientation (5\%) and gender identity (3\%).
Across almost all areas, protections for rights are far more common in
constitutions adopted more recently. Originality/value This is the first
study to systematically examine protections for income security and
decent work, together with nondiscrimination, in the constitutions of
all 193 UN member states.},

Title = {The role of business size in assessing the uptake of health promoting
workplace initiatives in Australia},
Journal = {BMC PUBLIC HEALTH},
Year = {2016},
Volume = {16},
Month = {APR 21},
Abstract = {Background: Worksite health promotion (WHP) initiatives are increasingly
seen as having potential for large-scale health gains. While health
insurance premiums are directly linked to workplaces in the USA, other
countries with universal health coverage, have less incentive to
implement WHP programs. Size of the business is an important
consideration with small worksites less likely to implement WHP
programs. The aim of this study was to identify key intervention points
and to provide policy makers with evidence for targeted interventions.
Methods: The worksites (n = 218) of randomly selected, working
participants, aged between 30 and 65 years, in two South Australian
cohort studies were surveyed to assess the practices, beliefs, and
attitudes regarding WHP. A survey was sent electronically or by mail to
management within each business.
Results: Smaller businesses (< 20 employees) had less current health
promotion activies (mean 1.0) compared to medium size businesses (20-200
employees -mean 2.4) and large businesses (200+ employees -mean 2.9).
Management in small businesses were less likely (31.0 \%) to believe
that health promotion belonged in the workplace (compared to 55.7 \% of
medium businesses and 73.9 \% of large businesses) although half of
small businesses did not know or were undecided (compared to 36.4 and
21.6 \% of medium and large businesses). In total, 85.0 \% of smaller
businesses believed the health promotion activities currently employed
in the worksite were effective (compared to 89.2 \% of medium businesses
and 83.1 \% of large businesses). Time and funding were themost cited
responses to the challenges to implementing health promoting strategies
regardless of business size. Small businesses ranked morale and
work/life balance the highest among a range of health promotion
activities that were important for their workplace while work-related
injury was the highest ranked consideration for large businesses.
Conclusion: This study found that smaller workplaces had many barriers,
beliefs and challenges regarding WHP. Often small businesses find health
promotion activities a luxury and not a serious focus of their
activities although this study found that once a health promoting
strategy was employed, the perceived effectiveness of the activities
were high for all business regardless of size. Tailored low-cost
programs, tax incentives, re-orientation of work practices and
management support are required so that the proportion of small
businesses that have WHP initiatives is increased.},

Abstract = {Despite the high rates of trauma histories in offenders and the link
between trauma and subsequent criminal behavior, the mechanisms
underlying the relationship between trauma and criminogenic risk factors
have not received adequate attention. Trauma-informed care is
increasingly a priority in forensic organizations, although individual
trauma work is rarely a focus for prison-based intervention. Research
conducted with female offenders has consistently found higher rates of
complex trauma histories in comparison to male offenders. Current
correctional models are disproportionately informed by studies of male
offenders despite findings of disparities between offending pathways
based on gender and histories of complex trauma. A review of the
literature regarding the relationship between trauma and offending
behavior using the Risk-Need-Responsivity (RNR) model of criminogenic
needs and the relationship between trauma and offending in females in
comparison to males is considered. Findings have both pragmatic and
theoretical significance for addressing the gap in exploring etiological
mechanisms linking the RNR criminogenic risk factors to crime.
Implications and recommendations for correctional policy and model
development addressing trauma will be discussed.},

Title = {Fostering Activation Among Latino Parents of Children With Mental Health

Journal = {PSYCHIATRIC SERVICES},
Year = {2017},
Volume = {68},
Number = {10},
Pages = {1068-1075},
Month = {OCT 1},
Abstract = {Objective: Latino families raising children with mental health and other
special health care needs report greater dissatisfaction with care
compared with other families. Activation is a promising strategy to
eliminate disparities. This study examined the comparative effectiveness
of MePrEPA, an activation intervention for Latino parents whose children
receive mental health services.
Methods: A randomized controlled trial (N=172) was conducted in a
Spanish-language mental health clinic to assess the effectiveness of
MePrEPA, a four-week group psychoeducational intervention to enhance
parent activation among Latino parents, compared with a parent-support
control group. Inclusion criteria were raising a child who receives
services for mental health needs and ability to attend weekly sessions.
Outcomes were parent activation, education activation, quality of school
interaction, and parent mental health. Effectiveness of the intervention
was tested with a difference-in- difference approach estimating linear
mixed models. Heterogeneity of treatment effect was examined.
Results: MePrEPA enhanced parent activation (beta=5.98, 95\% confidence
interval {[}CI]=1.42-10.53), education activation (beta=7.98,
CI=3.01-12.94), and quality of school interaction (beta=1.83,
CI=.14-3.52) to a greater degree than did a parent-support control
group. The intervention's impact on parent activation and education
outcomes was greater for participants whose children were covered by
Medicaid and were novices to therapy and those with low activation at
baseline. No statistically significant effects were observed in parent
mental health.
Conclusions: Activation among Latino parents was improved with MePrEPA,
which can be readily incorporated in current practices by mental health
clinics. Future work should replicate findings in a large number of
sites, adding behavioral measures and distal impacts while examining
MePrEPA's effects across settings and populations.},

Journal = {INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF HEALTH POLICY AND MANAGEMENT},
Year = {2018},
Volume = {7},
Number = {1},
Pages = {1-9},
Month = {JAN},
Abstract = {The health effects of economic resources (eg, education, employment, and
living place) and psychological assets (eg, self-efficacy, perceived
control over life, anger control, and emotions) are well-known. This
article summarizes the results of a growing body of evidence documenting
Blacks' diminished return, defined as a systematically smaller health
gain from economic resources and psychological assets for Blacks in
comparison to Whites. Due to structural barriers that Blacks face in
their daily lives, the very same resources and assets generate smaller
health gain for Blacks compared to Whites. Even in the presence of equal
access resources and assets, such unequal health gain constantly
generates a racial health gap between Blacks and Whites in the United
States. In this paper, a number of public policies are recommended based
on these findings. First and foremost, public policies should not merely
focus on equalizing access to resources and assets, but also reduce the
societal and structural barriers that hinder Blacks. Policy solutions
should aim to reduce various manifestations of structural racism
including but not limited to differential pay, residential segregation,
lower quality of education, and crime in Black and urban communities. As
income was not found to follow the same pattern demonstrated for other
resources and assets (ie, income generated similar decline in risk of
mortality for Whites and Blacks), policies that enforce equal income and
increase minimum wage for marginalized populations are essential.
Improving quality of education of youth and employability of young
adults will enable Blacks to compete for high paying jobs. Policies that
reduce racism and discrimination in the labor market are also needed.
Without such policies, it will be very difficult, if not impossible, to
eliminate the sustained racial health gap in the United States.},

Abstract = {This research examines the relationship between disabilities in families

theorized that disabilities played a central role in returns to welfare

Hypothesis tests support the theory that both child and maternal
disabilities, which act as barriers to self-sufficiency, increase rates
of TANF re-entry and SSI entry. We show that because past studies did
not account for disabilities on the odds of returning to welfare,
effects of work, number of children, and past receipt of TANF are
somewhat overstated. Our findings add to the literature on welfare
recidivism and have implications for welfare reforms that emphasize work

Volume = {20},
Number = {9},
Pages = {1681-1688},
Month = {NOV},
Abstract = {Background The Metropolitan Chicago Breast Cancer Taskforce was formed
to address a growing black/white breast cancer mortality disparity in
Chicago. The Taskforce explored three hypotheses: black women in Chicago
receive fewer mammograms, black women receive mammograms of inferior
quality, and black women have inadequate access to quality of treatment
for breast cancer.
Methods A total of 102 individuals from 74 Chicago area organizations
participated in the Task Force participating in three work groups from
January to September 2007. The work groups held focus groups of
providers, organized town hall meetings in four Chicago communities,
gathered black/white breast cancer mortality data for Chicago, the
United States, and New York City, and conducted a mammography capacity
and quality survey of mammography facilities.
Results Chicago's black and white breast cancer mortality rates were the
same in 1980. By the late 1990s, a substantial disparity was present,
and by 2005, the black breast cancer mortality rate was 116\% higher
than the white rate. In 2007, 206,000 screening mammograms were
performed for women living in Chicago, far short of the 588,000 women in
the 40-69 age range in Chicago. Facilities that served predominately
minority women were less likely to be academic or private institutions
(p < 03), less likely to have digital mammography (p < 003), and less
likely to have dedicated breast imaging specialists reading the films (p
< 003). Black women and providers serving them reported significant
difficulties in accessing needed care for breast cancer screening and
treatment.
Conclusion There are significant access barriers to high quality
mammography and treatment services that could be contributing to the
mortality differences in Chicago. A metropolitan wide taskforce has been
established to address the disparity.},

Month = {JUL 8},
Abstract = {Purpose The purpose of this paper is to quantify the labor market
outcomes of people with disabilities (PwD) in Indonesia and compares
them to people without disabilities. It first studies the labor force
participation of PwD before examining the large and persistent wage gaps
they face. It explores whether these wage gaps are explained by
differences in productivity, a distinction which has important
implications for policies addressing these gaps.
Design/methodology/approach The analysis is based on the Indonesian
Family Life Survey Wave 5, which includes unique questions allowing for
several definitions of disability. Multinomial logistic regression is
used to study differences in type of employment for PwD. Wage gaps are
estimated and corrected for selection using propensity score matching,
supported by a Heckman selection model and Oaxaca-Blinder decomposition.
Comparisons with other physically disadvantaged subgroups and the
analysis of heterogeneity by job requirements and sector of work explore
whether productivity gaps help explain wage gaps. Findings PwD generally
have lower unconditional labor force participation, but disparities
largely disappear when controlling for characteristics. Moreover,
patterns vary depending on whether the measure of disability used
depends on prior medical diagnosis. PwD that do not require prior
diagnosis tend to work in more vulnerable employment. When they are
employed for wages, people with these types of disabilities face lower
wages, up to 22\% lower. Meanwhile, (surprisingly) those with medically
diagnosed conditions face no difference or a wage premium. This paper
finds compelling evidence that, where a wage penalty exists, a
substantial part is unexplained by observable characteristics.
Originality/value Previous literature on disability has been mostly
based on studies of high-income economies. This paper extends the
literature to Indonesia, which differs from high-income contexts due to
lack of mental healthcare resources and assistive technologies, as well
as weaker rule of law. It provides unique insights based on types of
disability and the salient dimensions of disability in the workplace. It
also provides evidence that productivity differences do not explain the
wage gap.},

Title = {Complete vaccination service utilization inequalities among children
aged 12-23 months in Ethiopia: a multivariate decomposition analyses},
Journal = {INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL FOR EQUITY IN HEALTH},
Year = {2020},
Volume = {19},
Number = {1},
Month = {MAY 12},
Abstract = {Background Although World Health Organization works to make vaccination
service available to everyone everywhere by 2030, majority of the
world's children have been unvaccinated and unprotected from
vaccine-preventable diseases. In fact, evidences on factors contributing
to changes in vaccination coverage across residential areas, wealth
categories and over time have not been adequate. Therefore, this study
aimed at investigating inequalities in vaccination status of children
aged 12-23 months owing to variations in wealth status, residential
areas and over time. Methods Maternal and child health service data were
extracted from the 2011 and 2016 Ethiopian Demographic and Health Survey
datasets. Then, multivariate decomposition analysis was done to identify
the major factors contributing to differences in the rate of vaccination
utilization across residences and time variations. Similarly, a
concentration index and curve were also done to identify the
concentration of child vaccination status across wealth categories.
Results Among children aged 12-23 months, the prevalence of complete
childhood vaccination status increased from 20.7\% in rural to 49.2\% in
urban in 2011 and from 31.7\% in rural to 66.8\% in urban residences in
2016. The decomposition analyses indicated that 72\% in 2011 and 70.5\%
in 2016 of the overall difference in vaccination status was due to
differences in respondent characteristics. Of the changes due to the
composition of respondent characteristics, such as antenatal care and
place of delivery were the major contributors to the increase in
complete childhood vaccination in 2011, while respondent characteristics
such as wealth index, place of delivery and media exposure were the
major contributors to the increase in 2016. Of the changes due to
differences in coefficients, those of low wealth status in 2016 across
residences significantly contributed to the differences in complete
childhood vaccination. On top of that, from 2011 to 2016, there was a
significant increment in complete childhood vaccination status and a
59.8\% of the overall increment between the surveys was explained by the
difference in composition of respondents. With regard to the change in
composition, the differences in composition of ANC visit, wealth status,
place of delivery, residence, maternal education and media exposure
across the surveys were significant predictors for the increase in
complete child vaccination over time. On the other hand, the
wealth-related inequalities in the utilization of childhood vaccination
status were the pro-rich distribution of health services with a
concentration index of CI = 0.2479 (P-value < 0.0001) in 2011 and {[}CI
= 0.1987; P-value < 0.0001] in 2016. Conclusion A significant
rural-urban differentials was observed in the probability of a child
receiving the required childhood vaccines. Children in urban households
were specifically more likely to have completed the required number of
vaccines compared to the rural areas in both surveys. The effect of
household wealth status on the probability of a child receiving the
required number of vaccines are similar in the 2011 and 2016 surveys,
and the vaccination status was high in households with high wealth
status. The health policies aimed at reducing wealth related
inequalities in childhood vaccination in Ethiopia need to adjust focus
and increasingly target vulnerable children in rural areas. It is of
great value to policy-makers to understand and design a compensation
mechanism for the costs incurred by poor households.
Special attention should also be given to rural communities through
improving their access to the media. The findings highlight the
importance of women empowerment, for example, through education to
enhance childhood vaccination services in Ethiopia.},

Title = {Attracting and retaining health workers in rural areas: investigating
nurses' views on rural posts and policy interventions},
Journal = {BMC HEALTH SERVICES RESEARCH},
Year = {2010},
Volume = {10},
Number = {1},
Month = {JUL 2},
Abstract = {Background: Kenya has bold plans for scaling up priority interventions
nationwide, but faces major human resource challenges, with a lack of
skilled workers especially in the most disadvantaged rural areas.
Methods: We investigated reasons for poor recruitment and retention in
rural areas and potential policy interventions through quantitative and
qualitative data collection with nursing trainees. We interviewed 345
trainees from four purposively selected Medical Training Colleges (MTCs)
(166 pre-service and 179 upgrading trainees with prior work experience).
Each interviewee completed a self-administered questionnaire including
likert scale responses to statements about rural areas and
interventions, and focus group discussions (FGDs) were conducted at each
MTC.
Results: Likert scale responses indicated mixed perceptions of both
living and working in rural areas, with a range of positive, negative
and indifferent views expressed on average across different statements.
The analysis showed that attitudes to working in rural areas were
significantly positively affected by being older, but negatively
affected by being an upgrading student. Attitudes to living in rural
areas were significantly positively affected by being a student at the
MTC furthest from Nairobi.
During FGDs trainees raised both positive and negative aspects of rural
life. Positive aspects included lower costs of living and more autonomy
at work. Negative issues included poor infrastructure, inadequate
education facilities and opportunities, higher workloads, and inadequate
supplies and supervision. Particular concern was expressed about working
in communities dominated by other tribes, reflecting Kenya's recent
election-related violence. Quantitative and qualitative data indicated
that students believed several strategies could improve rural
recruitment and retention, with particular emphasis on substantial rural
allowances and the ability to choose their rural location. Other
interventions highlighted included provision of decent housing, and more
rapid career advancement. However, recently introduced short term
contracts in named locations were not favoured due to their lack of
pension plans and job security.
Conclusions: This study identified a range of potential interventions to
increase rural recruitment and retention, with those most favored by
nursing students being additional rural allowances, and allowing choice
of rural location. Greater investment is needed in information systems
to evaluate the impact of such policies.},

Abstract = {Study design Qualitative study using in-depth interviews. Objectives To
describe experienced barriers and facilitators for work and social
participation among individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI). Setting
Vocational rehabilitation (VR) center in Yogyakarta Province, Indonesia.
Methods Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 12 participants
(8 males, 4 females) aged 24-67 years. Five participants still underwent
vocational rehabilitation, while seven participants lived in the
community. Thematic analysis was used. Results None of the participants
who worked before the injury returned to her/his previous occupation,
most participants became self-employed. The frequency of participation
in social activities decreased substantially. Barriers for work and
social participation included health conditions and environmental
barriers, including inaccessibility, stigma and discrimination and
limited institutional support and services. Identified facilitators for
work and social participation were perceived importance of work and
social participation, adaptations to disability condition, and social
support. Conclusion Barriers to engage in work and social activities for
individuals with SCI in Indonesia are combination of physical
limitations, lack of accessibility, stigma, and institutional barriers.
The capacity of social networks such as family in facilitating
participation should be strengthened during the VR processes. VR should
provide marketing skills and link self-employed clients with the market,
in collaboration with the private sector and industries. Immediate
policy and programmatic action is needed to enable these individuals to
enhance sustainable work and social participation.},

Title = {Functioning and disability in recent research from Cameroon: a narrative
synthesis},
Journal = {PAN AFRICAN MEDICAL JOURNAL},
Year = {2017},
Volume = {27},
Month = {JUN 1},
Abstract = {Introduction: People living with disabilities in Cameroon face many
barriers to daily functioning and social participation. However, there
is limited research on disabilities and their impact. We sought to
examine the research related to disability from Cameroon. Methods: We
conducted a systematic review, bibliometric analysis, and narrative
synthesis of research related to disability, functioning, and social
participation from Cameroon published during 2005-2014. The articles
were screened in duplicate to identify articles addressing impacts of
disability on functioning. Disability was contextualized using the
International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF)
framework. Data were analyzed narratively per identified themes using an
inductive data-driven approach. Results: A total of 46 studies were
included following full-text review of which 36 addressed
non-communicable diseases and conditions, 7 addressed infectious
diseases and 3 addressed neglected tropical diseases. Among ICF Activity
and Participation Restrictions, work and employment was the highest
reported category (19 studies), followed by intimate relationships (14
studies), and looking after one's health (8 studies). Among ICF
Environmental Factors, societal attitudes were the highest reported
category (21 studies), followed by health services, systems and policies
(14 studies) and support and relationships (11 studies). Among other
common themes, knowledge and awareness was the highest reported category
(22 studies), closely followed by traditional beliefs (20 studies) and
financial barriers (9 studies). Conclusion: There is a small body of
primary research from Cameroon on disability. The main themes related to
disability are stigma, limited knowledge and awareness, poor quality of
care and hindered employment opportunities. Further efforts are required
to investigate the complexities of living with a disability in Cameroon
and strategies to enhance adequate participation in activities of daily
life.},

Africa},
Journal = {JOURNAL OF RURAL STUDIES},
Year = {2020},
Volume = {76},

Month = {MAY},
Abstract = {An emerging orthodoxy supports the proposition that the rural economy -
built around agriculture but encompassing much more - will serve as
sweet spot of employment opportunities for many millions of young people
into the foreseeable future. However, our understanding of how rural
young people in Africa take advantage of processes of rural
transformation or engage with the rural economy is limited. Drawing on
qualitative research conducted with 117 rural young people in three
country contexts (Ghana, Zimbabwe and Tanzania), this paper reports the
findings on the steps and pathways through which young people construct
livelihoods in hotspots of agricultural commercialisation. Overall what
emerges from a diversity of backgrounds, experiences and pathways is
that the commercialised rural economy within which they operate offer
them a variety of income earning opportunities. Family and broader
social relations are key in enabling young people to access the needed
resources in the form of land, capital, and inputs to begin their
ventures. Between family and rental markets, there is little evidence
that young people's engagement with crop production is limited by their
inability to access land. We also find evidence of asset accumulation by
young people in the form of housing, furniture and savings among others,
which reflects the combination of relatively dynamic rural economies,
enabling social relations, and hard work. However, for many it is a
struggle to stay afloat, requiring effort, persistence, and an ability
to navigate setbacks and hazards. Our findings challenge a number of
assumptions underlying policy and public discourse around rural young
people and employment in Africa. We highlight some key implications for
policy seeking to promote youth employment in rural Africa.},

Abstract = {Work Integration Social Enterprises (WISE) offer supported work
environments for people experiencing disadvantage, including people with
disability. This paper reflects on a research project that is mapping
the ways in which social enterprises in regional Australian cities
produce wellbeing for their employees. Through supported employment
programs, these organisations are transforming individual lives, helping
to build a sense of self-worth and purpose, and increase individuals'
social skills and capacities. Many of the perceived benefits are
associated with a belief in the innate good of paid work. Based upon
interviews with employees in the social enterprises, it is apparent that
the hopes attached to providing `meaningful work' are considerable. At
the same time social enterprises are taking on social responsibilities
that were once provided by the state, while also selling their services
as employers of disabled and disadvantaged members of society and
maintaining commercial viability of the enterprise. Using feminist
political economy alongside discussion of the distributive economy, this
paper explores how contemporary policy conditions, productivist biases
and normative discourses about the value of wage work inflect the forms
of wellbeing that can be experienced by WISE workers.},

Title = {Nicotine/tobacco use disparities among transgender and gender diverse
adults: Findings from wave 4 PATH data},
Journal = {DRUG AND ALCOHOL DEPENDENCE},
Year = {2022},
Volume = {232},
Month = {MAR 1},
Abstract = {Background: Transgender and Gender Diverse (TGD) populations have
current cigarette/e-cigarette/cigar use rates ranging from 32.6\% to
39.7\%. Importantly, while some studies have reported tobacco use as
significantly higher among TGD versus cisgender individuals in
multivariate analyses, others have reported no significant differences.
The present study used data from wave 4 of the Population Assessment of
Tobacco and Health (PATH) study, a large, nationally representative U.S.
study, to examine relationships among sociodemographic characteristics,
internal and external factors, and tobacco use behaviors, with a focus
on TGD individuals.
Methods: Data were from 33,628 adults from the PATH study's wave 4
(collected December 2016-January 2018). Multivariable logistic
regression models examined differences in current tobacco use
(cigarettes, electronic nicotine products, and cigars) between TGD and
cisgender individuals through the replication of previous work using
PATH data, as well as evaluating the role of other internal and external
factors.
Results: TGD individuals were 2-3 times more likely than cisgender
individuals to report current nicotine/tobacco use, even after
adjustment for potential confounders. TGD individuals tended to have
lower income and education and be more likely to endorse a sexual
minority identity than their cisgender counterparts; meanwhile, lower
income, less education, and lesbian/gay and bisexual identities were
significant predictors of nicotine/tobacco use, independent of TGD
identity.
Conclusions: Present findings underscore the high rates of
nicotine/tobacco use in the TGNC community and emphasize the necessity
of TGD-focused research methods and measures, access to quality medical
care, and policy aimed at minimizing marginalization and
nicotine/tobacco use disparities experienced by TGD communities.},

article looks at what happened after that. How did the returned migrants

rural households functioned as safety nets in the severe recession in
the Indian economy which highlights the weakness in the state policy and
lack of resources in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. They were safety
nets not only for workers directly working in food value chains but also
for reverse migrants. Overall, the recession did not just result in a
temporary loss of income but also increased inequality and strengthened

Title = {Parental influence on female vocational intentions in the Arabian Gulf},
Journal = {INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF MANPOWER},
Year = {2017},
Volume = {38},
Number = {2},
Pages = {145-159},
Abstract = {Purpose - The purpose of this paper is to examine parental
career-related behavior (PCB) in relation to the vocational intentions
of female nationals enrolled at higher education institutions in the
United Arab Emirates.
Design/methodology/approach - A conceptual framework was constructed to
examine the interplay between the PCB factors of support, interference
and lack of engagement, against context-relevant dimensions of gendered
sociocultural barriers, public sector preferences and the likelihood
itself of labor market entry. Survey data from face-to-face encounters
(n = 335) was collected.
Findings - Parental support was found to significantly reduce the
perceived sociocultural barriers to workforce participation. Parental
interference amplified these barriers and also increased public sector
preferences. Those with educated fathers were more likely to seek labor
market entry and consider atypical career paths, while those with a
parent working in the private sector were more willing to consider this
sector.
Research limitations/implications - One limitation was a sample
comprising only female students, nonetheless it implies PCB has an
impact on ``national{''} female labor force participation (FLFP).
Therefore, seeking to engage parents as more active stakeholders in
vocationally related HEI interventions would benefit from greater policy
attention.
Originality/value - This paper is the first to consider parental
influence on FLFP using the PCB construct. Its value is in the framework
model presented and its contribution to the discourse on the Arabian
Gulf's labor market dynamics.},

country with dense population of urban dwellers. However, disparity
among various states in terms of infrastructures, per-capita wealth and

collecting data about economic status of Indian families is highly cost
extensive, motivating remote sensing as a cheaper yet robust way of
measuring economic livelihood data. In this work, we combine publicly
available night time light imagery which are good proxy measure for
economic activities, along with recent survey data to develop machine

have presented state-wise economic status for different states and
showed the effectiveness of the proposed scheme by comparing with the

Title = {The complexities of urban informality: A multi-dimensional analysis of
residents' perceptions of life, inequality, and access in an Iranian
informal settlement},
Journal = {CITIES},
Year = {2023},
Volume = {132},
Month = {JAN},
Abstract = {Informal settlements constitute a prominent form of urbanization across
the world. The rapid growth of Yazd presents an example of informal
urbanization in Iran at the nexus of development, poverty, and
inequality. While scholarship on urban informality is abundant, a lacuna
exists in the literature on systematic quantitative research on
informality among urban residents. The present study investigates
residents' perceptions regarding infor-mality and captures their
responses before and after the expansion of an informal settlement in
Yazd. Through this quantitative research, we aim to articulate and
highlight specific domains of informality, offering a framework
assessing the complexities of informality that extend beyond only
Iranian informal settlements. This paper analyzes the status of urban
informality and migration in terms of their social, economic, physical,
environmental, and urban management characteristics in ``Airport
Neighborhood{''}, a prominent Yazd neigh-borhood. This paper seeks to
add theoretical and empirical depth to the categorization of distinct
yet overlapping domains of informality. Our quantitative approach to
migration and informality informs our central research question: How
does the complexity of informality affect different groups of people
living in one informal set-tlement? We find that recent migrants to the
settlement are less involved in urban governance, women experi-ence
improved work opportunities after moving to the informal settlement but
remain marginalized, and insufficient and poorly maintained
infrastructure operates as a significant barrier to socio-economic
stability and mobility. We also find that urban settlement results in
increased debt among residents in Airport Neighborhood, and that youth
unemployment is a significant issue that did not improve for recent
migrants to the neighborhood despite young people citing employment as a
key motivating factor for migration. Our empirical work highlights the
theoretical complexity of informality, as subgroups of people face
varying challenges that correlate with their age, gender, and time spent
in a particular informal settlement.},

Abstract = {A major barrier to employment for people with mental illness is limited
access to supportive and non-discriminatory workplaces. Social firms are
businesses committed to employing up to 50\% of people with a disability
or other disadvantage and to providing supportive work environments that
benefit workers. Little research has been conducted to understand the
features and social processes that support the vocational experiences of
employees with mental health issues in social firms.
Objective: This ethnographic study sought to explore the experiences of
nine employees at one Australian social firm.
Participants: Nine employees of a social firm, with and without mental
illness.
Methods: Study methods used included participant observation,
interviewing and document analysis.
Results and conclusions: The study highlights the complexity of running
a socially-invested business, and the importance of cross-sectoral
partnerships to support their operational success. Natural workplace
supports, adequate training and support infrastructure and enabling
participation in the business, were identified as important to creating
a supportive workplace. Partnerships within the workplace and in support
of the workplace are discussed. Future growth and development of
partnerships are recommended to support the establishment of social

Volume = {41},

Pages = {385-403},
Month = {AUG},
Abstract = {In 2019, South Africa implemented a national minimum wage (NMW) for the
first time. This is an important intervention, given that the South
African labour market continues to generate some of the highest levels
of income and wealth inequality in the world. The minimum wage is
intended as a structural intervention to transform the labour market by
setting a wage floor, while highlighting larger issues that continue to
reproduce inequality in the labour market. The process raises
interesting questions about the role of social dialogue in the policy
making process, especially at a time when the roles of experts and
evidence are contested in political economy. This article reviews the
national minimum wage process from two angles: assessing the economic
evidence and examining the political economy of minimum wages in South
Africa. We take this approach in order to better understand the roles of
evidence and politics in the policy making process. While both processes
were contested, important differences emerge from the analysis: the
economic lens highlights the intersection of evidence and ideology,
while a political economy review identifies important lines of
contestation in the policy making process itself. The national minimum
wage process shows that institutionalised social dialogue continues to
be a central part of the policy making process, but that it cannot be
taken for granted: the particular configuration of the social dialogue
process and the roles assigned to each player matter.},

Abstract = {Previous research highlights how schools value white, middle-class modes
of parental involvement, we know less about Latinx parents' involvement
in their children's schools. This article compares the participatory
patterns of Latinx and non-Latinx white parents whose children attend a
Spanish/English dual-immersion school in Los Angeles. Drawing from 66
interviews and 20 months of participant observation, I find that all
parents participate actively but are channeled into racially segregated
Parent Teacher Organizations (PTO) based on the reputation, demographic
composition and informal culture of each of these organizations. This
organizational segregation disadvantages Latinxs - working-class Latinx
parent efforts garner less power and recognition and middle-class Latinx
are less active in PTOs, as they feel they do not `fit' in either
organization. This article illustrates how school-based parental
involvement is stratified in ways that are not fully captured by solely
focusing on participation, and demonstrates how parent organizations can
function as racialized organizations that perpetuate inequality.},

Title = {The Defeat of Multiculturalism over Nationalism and Religion:
Transformation of Immigration Policies in Denmark and Sweden},
Journal = {HITIT THEOLOGY JOURNAL},
Year = {2021},
Volume = {20},
Number = {2},
Pages = {517-545},
Abstract = {Since the Treaty of Westphalia, sovereign states have combined national
security with border security, as border is accepted as the line of
sovereignty that separates ``us{''} from ``others{''}. The step of
forming a European identity as a supra-identity apart from the national
identities of the European countries within the borders of each state
takes its roots from this perception of being ``us{''}. Though
highlighted in Copenhagen Criteria that the stability of institutions
guaranteeing democracy, rule of law, human rights and respect for and
protection of minorities are ensured; when we look at today's
immigration policies we see a serious deviation from this founding
approach emphasizing and ensuring multiculturalism.
With labour migration in the 1960s, refugees fleeing Yugoslavia in the
1990s, and the 2015 refugee crisis, Europe's population structure began
to change. Following the 9/11 terrorist attacks, the security approach
has taken the place of economic considerations in migration management.
The 2015 refugee crisis has become not only a border security crisis but
also a crisis of European identity and welfare state protection. This
paper aims to investigate the effects of religion, nationalism, and
economic concerns on the transformation of immigration policies after
2015 in Denmark, which employs extreme restrictive policies, and Sweden,
which has a relatively welcoming culture. The majority of the literature
discusses whether those countries are religious or secular; it is
expected that the study contributes to a better understanding of the
impact of religion and nationalism on migration policies, as well as a
discussion of its future implications.
Denmark had been extremely homogeneous with only one language and
religion and no ethnic minorities, though, this homogeneous structure
has begun to deteriorate with the increase in non-western immigration
since the 1990s. While the Danish Law of 1983 was widely regarded as the
most liberal in Europe, after 1990, equal rights were replaced by
immigrant responsibility and integration. With the rise of the
anti-immigrant parties in the 2001 elections, social rights were
curtailed, and Danish values took centre stage. In Denmark, rules like
reducing social assistance after 2015 aim to protect the welfare state,
whereas rules like the ban on the burqa and the handshake in the
naturalization ceremony are motivated by other factors. The Danish Prime
Minister announced the zero-refugee target, the anti-immigrant farright
Danish People's Party declared their intention to reduce the number of
all immigrants. So, a new discourse has emerged in which no form of
immigration is desired. On the other hand, Sweden follows Denmark
slightly behind in terms of process, but by going through literally the
same processes. While positive discourse about immigrants had been
dominant in Sweden, which implemented multicultural policies, the
discourse turned negative with the 2015 refugee crisis. Increasing
unemployment among immigrants, income inequality, and Swedish identity
discussions seems to lead to a rise in nationalism and nativism in the
2022 elections, as well as a reduction in the generosity of the welfare
state.
Denmark and Sweden cases show how similar welfare states with the same
historical and immigration background respond differently to the refugee
crisis. While the unemployment rate for foreign-born workers is high in
both countries, it is more than three times higher in Sweden. Refugee
crisis has made religious identity more visible and put pressure on
Scandinavian welfare model as well as governments. Although integration
and assimilation policies are brought to the forefront in terms of
religious behaviour patterns of Muslims, the emphasis on religion is not
made directly, instead, it is made through the symbols of Islam. The
reason why Muslims considered as ``others{''} mainly takes its
foundation from this difference. Although they do not make religion an
important part of their life, and atheism is higher than other parts of
the world, in many European countries Christianity is still considered
an important part of the European identity and the Church is an
important part of it. According to the conclusion of this study, it is
highly possible that Denmark might serve as a model to Europe, primarily
to Nordic countries, and this strengthens the possibility that
anti-immigrant opposition will sharpen and divide societies. The effects
of radical Islam, which is gradually increasing its influence around the
world, is undoubtedly huge in these politics throughout Europe; however,
abandoning or deviating from policies targeting multiculturalism might
cause isolation and alienation of immigrants, who are already fleeing
from terrorism, and push them towards radicalization which constitutes
another danger.},

Abstract = {There are gender inequalities that affect and condition the decisions
that determine people's future since childhood. Today, it is crucial to
develop skills related to scientific and technological thinking. Thus,
the scarce number of women in STEM-related careers (Science, Technology,
Engineering, Mathematics) is a concern that has long ago become a source
of discussion. This issue is critical to achieve the UN Sustainable
Development Goals (2030 Agenda).
In this context, the Research was carried out to generate knowledge
about the conditions and factors that favor and/or limit in childhood
the opportunities and possibilities of boys and girls to be interested,
develop skills and build a satisfactory relationship in the learning of
STEM. It studied boys and girls aged 6-10 in Mexico City (Mexico), Sao
Paulo (Brazil) and Buenos Aires (Argentina). The opinions, assessments,
expectations, and representations of children, parents, and teachers
related to the STEM areas were collected and analyzed.
Objectives:
Investigate how boys and girls aged 6-10 relate to science and
technology, and recognize their perceptions of STEM.
Identify gender biases by teachers, parents, and guardians that impact
the relationship between boys and girls with STEM areas.
Propose specific actions, recommendations, and tools to disassemble
gender biases in education and the family environment.
This research was carried out in the framework of the Compromiso Disney
(Disney Commitment) regional skill building program and its Digital
Culture and Innovation in Education initiatives, which promote
children's rights in the digital era.
The program includes free Training for Teachers through e-learning and
webinars hosted by experts in the matter, free educational resources,
ongoing research, and activities and workshops for children.
Findings Highlights
9 out of 10 girls aged 6-8 associate engineering with male affinities
and skills. Although girls and boys think that the four STEM disciplines
can be performed by both men and women.
Girls' interest in mathematics decreases as they progress through
school.
1 out of 3 parents in Buenos Aires thinks that the low participation of
girls in science and technology is a consequence of girls' personal
taste and that they receive few stimuli at home and in school to be
interested in and to relate to those disciplines.
More information at http://bit.ly/research-gender
Innovative aspects of the research
Unexplored topic in the region. There were no studies analyzing gender
differences and inequalities related to science and technology in
childhood, particularly during the first years of formal education.
Focus groups of both girls and boys to identify their perceptions and
assessments, considering self-assessment as critical information of the
problem, which is rarely considered as part of the analysis.
Recommendations focus on the need to work with boys as one of the
pillars to improve the inclusion of girls in science and technology.
It proposes an articulated strategy with the responsible parts for
children and teenager education and upbringing: families, State,
educators, social organizations, schools, and companies by the portions

Title = {Evaluating an organization-wide disparity reduction program:
Understanding what works for whom and why},
Journal = {PLOS ONE},
Year = {2018},
Volume = {13},
Number = {3},
Month = {MAR 14},
Abstract = {Background
Disparity-reduction programs have been shown to vary in the degree to
which they achieve their goal; yet the causes of these variations is
rarely studied. We investigated a broad-scale program in Israel's
largest health plan, aimed at reducing disparities in socially
disadvantaged groups using a composite measure of seven health and
health care indicators.
Methods
A realistic evaluation was conducted to evaluate the program in 26
clinics and their associated managerial levels. First, we performed
interviews with key stakeholders and an ethnographic observation of a
regional meeting to derive the underlying program theory. Next,
semi-structured interviews with 109 clinic teams, subregional
headquarters, and regional headquarters personnel were conducted. Social
network analysis was performed to derive measures of team
interrelations. Perceived team effectiveness (TE) and clinic
characteristics were assessed to elicit contextual characteristics.
Interventions implemented by clinics were identified from interviews and
coded according to the mechanisms each clinic employed. Assessment of
each clinic's performance on the seven-indicator composite measure was
conducted at baseline and after 3 years. Finally, we reviewed different
context mechanism-outcome (CMO) configurations to understand what works
to reduce disparity, and under what circumstances.
Results
Clinics' inner contextual characteristics varied in both network density
and perceived TE. Successful CMO configurations included 1) highly dense
clinic teams having high perceived TE, only a small gap to minimize, and
employing a wide range of interventions; (2) clinics with a large gap to
minimize with high clinic density and high perceived TE, focusing
efforts on tailoring services to their enrollees; and (3) clinics having
medium to low density and perceived TE, and strong middle-management
support.
Conclusions
Clinics that achieved disparity reduction had high clinic density, close
ties with middle management, and tailored interventions to the unique
needs of the populations they serve.},

Abstract = {Social firms, or ``affirmative businesses{''} as they are known in North
America, are businesses created to employ people with disabilities and
to provide a needed product or service. This Open Forum offers an
overview of the development and status of social firms. The model was
developed in Italy in the 1970s for people with psychiatric disabilities
and has gained prominence in Europe. Principles include that over a
third of employees are people with a disability or labor market
disadvantage, every worker is paid a fair-market wage, and the business
operates without subsidy. Independent of European influence, affirmative
businesses also have developed in Canada, the United States, Japan, and
elsewhere. The success of individual social firms is enhanced by
locating the right market niche, selecting labor-intensive products,
having a public orientation for the business, and having links with
treatment services. The growth of the social firm movement is aided by
legislation that supports the businesses, policies that favor employment
of people with disabilities, and support entities that facilitate
technology transfer. Social firms can empower individual employees,
foster a sense of community in the workplace, and enhance worker
commitment through the organization's social mission.},

Title = {Interventions to promote access to eye care for non-Indigenous,
non-dominant ethnic groups in high-income countries: a scoping review
protocol},
Journal = {BMJ OPEN},
Year = {2020},
Volume = {10},
Number = {6},
Abstract = {IntroductionFor many people, settling in a new country is associated
with a new identity as an `ethnic minority', one that can remain through
future generations. People who are culturally distinct from the dominant
population group may experience a variety of barriers to accessing
healthcare, including linguistic and cultural barriers in communication,
navigation of an unfamiliar health system and unconscious or overt
discrimination. Here, we outline the protocol of a scoping review to
identify, describe and summarise interventions aimed at improving access
to eye care for non-Indigenous, non-dominant ethnic groups residing in
high-income countries.Methods and analysisWe will search MEDLINE, Embase
and Global Health from their inception to July 2019. We will include
studies of any design that describe an intervention to promote access to
eye care for non-Indigenous, non-dominant ethnic groups. Two authors
will independently review titles, abstracts and full-text articles for
inclusion. Reference lists from all included articles will also be
searched. In cases of disagreement between initial reviewers, a third
author will help resolve the conflict. For each included article, we
will extract data about the target population, details of the
intervention delivered and the effectiveness of or feedback from the
intervention. Overall findings will be summarised with descriptive
statistics and thematic analysis.Ethics and disseminationThis review
will summarise existing literature and as such ethics approval is not
required. We will publish the review in an open-access, peer-reviewed
journal, and draft appropriate summaries for dissemination to the wider
community. This wider community could include clinicians, policymakers,
health service managers and organisations that work with non-dominant
ethnic groups. Our findings will also feed into the ongoing Lancet
Global Health Commission on Global Eye Health.},

Africa: Case studies of Limpopo, Nile, and Volta river basins},
Journal = {NATURAL RESOURCES FORUM},

Abstract = {Much of Sub-Saharan Africa is burdened with water scarcity and poverty.
Continentally, less than four percent of Africa's renewable water
resources are withdrawn for agriculture and other uses. Investments in
agricultural water management can contribute in several ways to
achieving the Millennium Development Goals of eradicating extreme
poverty and hunger and ensuring environmental sustainability. Increased
yield and cropping area and shifts to higher valued crops could help
boost the income of rural households, generate more employment, and
lower consumer food prices. These investments can also stabilize output,
income and employment, and have favourable impacts on education,
nutrition and health, and social equity. Investments in agricultural
water management can cut poverty by uplifting the entitlements and
transforming the opportunity structure for the poor. The overall role of
investments in agricultural water management in eradicating hunger and
poverty is analyzed. This paper contributes to the present debate and
efforts to identify strategies and interventions that can effectively
contribute to poverty reduction in Africa. It provides an overview of
population growth, malnutrition, income distribution and poverty for
countries in three case study river basins - Limpopo, Nile, and Volta.
With discussions on the contribution of agriculture to national income
and employment generation, the paper explores the linkages among water
resources investments, agricultural growth, employment, and poverty
alleviation. It examines the potential for expansion in irrigation for
vertical and horizontal growth in agricultural productivity, via gains
in yield and cropping area to boost the agricultural output. Factors
constraining such potential, in terms of scarcity and degradation of
land and water resources, and poor governance and weak institutions, are
also outlined. The paper argues that increased investments in land and
water resources and related rural infrastructure are a key pathway to
enhance agricultural productivity and to catalyze agricultural and
economic growth for effective poverty alleviation.},

Journal = {DERECHO PUCP},
Year = {2022},
Number = {89},
Pages = {261-288},
Month = {DEC-MAY},
Abstract = {This article deals with gender-sex violence as a significant expression
of the structural nature of gender and sexuality in migratory processes.
From the biographical approach, expressions of the multiple forms that
this violence acquires (direct, structural, cultural) are addressed in
the narratives of ten cis and trans migrant women of Latin American
origin who reside in the cities of Antofagasta and Santiago, located in
the north and central Chile, respectively, and who have an active
participation in social organizations that carry out community care
tasks, although these labours are not part of the purposes and main
actions of these organizations. The approach is carried out around the
idea of politicization in two senses: first, from the proposal to
politicize sex-gender violence -that is, to make visible the power
relations that make it possible and the historical processes that have
led to the construction of ``violent{''} bodies and lives from the
framework that intersects gender and sexuality with foreignness,
ethnicity, ``race{''} and class, among other dimensions-; and, second,
from the analysis of experiences of politicization of some of these
migrant women in which this sex-gender violence is re-signified as the
engine of their social participation, a re-signification crossed by the
tensions and contradictions that this channeling of participatory action
in tasks characterized by sex-gender inequality such as care implies.
Although it is concluded that the scope of these experiences in the
transformation of this sex-gender violence is fundamentally limited to
the individual scale of intra-domestic violence, it is proposed that
these organizational experiences, in their daily actions and practices,
silently and in the long run term undermine the liminality of the
foreigner in relation to the recognition of rights by the State of
residence, which harbors transformative potentialities of the idea of
citizenship, at least from that practical dimension.},

Abstract = {Using data from a longitudinal study of working-class participants on a
youth enterprise start-up programme in the United Kingdom, we examine
whether programmes aimed at disadvantaged groups enable parents to
combine business trading with childcare responsibilities. Business
planning and programme selection practices ignored childcare, rendering
it a solely private matter, invisible to public scrutiny. Yet this
childcare barrier became both a cause and a consequence of business
failure. Participants' experiences of combining trading and childcare
varied by gender. All mothers and one father had complex strategies for
synchronising trading and childcare responsibilities. However, these
strategies soon collapsed, contributing to business closure. Most
fathers relied on the childrens' mother to organise and conduct
continuous care, but this was dependent on fathers becoming breadwinners
through profitable trading which was not achieved. There is growing
policy recognition of the importance of the childcare barrier to paid
work for lower income families and for self-employed women in the United
Kingdom. However, despite recent initiatives, severe constraints remain
for working-class parents to start and manage a business. Several
implications for policy are discussed.},

Title = {Cultural ``Blind Spots,{''} Social Influence and the Welfare of Working
Donkeys in Brick Kilns in Northern India},
Journal = {FRONTIERS IN VETERINARY SCIENCE},
Year = {2020},
Volume = {7},
Month = {APR 29},
Abstract = {Non-governmental organizations (NGOs) work across the globe to improve
the welfare of working equids. Despite decades of veterinary and other
interventions, welfare issues persist with equids working in brick
kilns. Engagement with all stakeholders is integral to creating abiding
improvements to working equid welfare as interventions based purely on
reactive measures fail to provide sustainable solutions. Equid owners,
particularly those in low to middle-income countries (LMICs), may have
issues such as opportunity, capacity, gender or socio-economic status,
overriding their ability to care well for their own equids. These
``blind spots{''} are frequently overlooked when organizations develop
intervention programs to improve welfare. This study aims to highlight
the lives of the poorest members of Indian society, and will focus on
working donkeys specifically as they were the only species of working
equids present in the kilns visited. We discuss culture, status,
religion, and social influences, including insights into the
complexities of cultural ``blind spots{''} which complicate efforts by
NGOs to improve working donkey welfare when the influence of different
cultural and societal pressures are not recognized or acknowledged.
Employing a mixed-methods approach, we used the Equid Assessment
Research and Scoping (EARS) tool, a questionnaire based equid welfare
assessment tool, to assess the welfare of working donkeys in brick kilns
in Northern India. In addition, using livelihoods surveys and
semi-structured interviews, we established owner demographics,
socioeconomic status, ethnicity, religion and their personal accounts of
their working lives and relationships to their donkeys. During
transcript analysis six themes emerged: caste, ethnicity, inherited
knowledge; social status, and impacts of ethnic group and caste; social
status and gender; migration and shared suffering; shared suffering,
compassion; religious belief, species hierarchy. The lives led by these,
marginalized communities of low status are driven by poverty, exposing
them to exploitation, lack of community cohesion, and community
conflicts through migratory, transient employment. This vulnerability
influences the care and welfare of their working donkeys, laying bare
the inextricable link between human and animal welfare. Cultural and
social perspectives, though sometimes overlooked, are crucial to
programs to improve welfare, where community engagement and
participation are integral to their success.},

Abstract = {Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is estimated to affect 1 in 44 children
in the United States. Disparities exist related to socioeconomic,
racial/ethnic and geographic demographics. Due to the shortages of
autism specialists in diagnosis, treatment and education for people with
ASD, novel approaches to improve access to best practices are needed to
ensure quality services. ECHO Autism: Early Intervention clinic consists
of biweekly sessions focused on early identification and management of
evidence-based practices for young children with ASD. It is an
adaptation of the ECHO Autism clinic that has been proven effective for
primary care providers. The clinic provides a safe, virtual learning
environment where diverse professionals who work with children at risk
or diagnosed with ASD can collaborate and learn together. ECHO Autism:
Early Intervention bridges the care gap between autism specialists,
community intervention providers, and children with autism to increase
capacity for autism intervention best practices in underserved
communities. Through participation in this convenient, web-based small
group, the providers get specific case guidance on children at risk or
diagnosed with autism and share best practices for autism specific
interventions. Finally, the clinic connects participants with community
resources, and family/caregiver support. In our article, we address the
current challenge of access to quality early intervention specific to
ASD in rural and underserved communities and how this issue can be
addressed through a virtual ECHO Autism clinic. The aim of this concept
article is to describe the innovative ECHO Autism: Early Intervention
clinic and discuss its benefits and impact in the field.},

Month = {AUG},
Abstract = {Introduction In Manitoba, Canada, there has been an increase in the
number of people newly diagnosed with HIV and those not returning for
regular HIV care. The COVID-19 pandemic resulted in increased sex and
gender disparities in disease risk and mortalities, decreased harm
reduction services and reduced access to healthcare. These health crises
intersect with increased drug use and drug poisoning deaths,
houselessness and other structural and social factors most acutely among
historically underserved groups. We aim to explore the social and
structural barriers and facilitators to HIV care and harm reduction
services experienced by people living with HIV (PLHIV) in Manitoba.
Methods and analysis Our study draws on participatory action research
design. Guiding the methodological design are the lived experiences of
PLHIV. In-depth semi-structured face-to- face interviews and
quantitative questionnaires will be conducted with two groups: (1)
persons aged >= 18 years living or newly diagnosed with HIV and (2)
service providers who work with PLHIV. Data collection will include sex,
gender, sociodemographic information, income and housing, experiences
with the criminal justice system, sexual practices, substance use
practices and harm reduction access, experiences with violence and
support, HIV care journey (since diagnosis until present), childhood
trauma and a decision-making questionnaire. Data will be analysed
intersectionally, employing grounded theory for thematic analysis,
sex-based and gender-based analysis and social determinants of health
and syndemic framework to understand the experiences of PLHIV in
Manitoba.
Ethics and dissemination We received approval from the University of
Manitoba Health Ethics Research Board (HS25572; H2022:218), First
Nations Health and Social Secretariat of Manitoba, Nine Circles
Community Health Centre, Shared Health Manitoba (SH2022:194) and 7th

Abstract = {Background: The Coalition for a Healthier Community for Utah Women and
Girls (CHC-UWAG) focused on addressing obesity-related health
disparities impacting Utah women of color using community-based
participatory research, a gender-based approach, and culturally
sensitive health promotion activities delivered through community health
workers (CHWs). A randomized trial of low vs. high intensity wellness
coaching by CHWs was initiated. During this process, numerous policy
issues emerged and were tracked. We present a case study illustrating
how we identified, tracked, and engaged with emerging policy
initiatives.
Methods: Between September 2011 and August 2017, policy initiatives
addressing obesity-related disparities among Utah women and girls were
identified, tracked in a shared document, and updated regularly.
Policies were classified by level (organizational, local, and statewide)
and by focus (healthy eating, active living, and promotion of community
health workers). CHC-UWAG engagement with policy work was also
documented and tracked.
Results: Broad dissemination of study findings generated interest in the
role of CHWs in addressing obesity. Partnering community-based
organizations implemented policies focused on healthy eating and
physical activity. Barriers to the broader use of CHWs in Utah were
addressed in policy initiatives including the formation of a Utah Public
Health Association Section for CHWs and a statewide CHW Coalition with
involvement of CHC-UWAG members.
Conclusions: The regular solicitation of information about policy
initiatives resulted in successful policy tracking and engagement in
policy work. The utilization of a gender-based approach helped
illuminate the impact of emerging policies on the health of women and
girls. Published by Elsevier Inc. on behalf of Jacobs Institute of

Abstract = {The purpose of this paper is analysing Polish ruling party (Law and
Justice) politics in the context of social policy and populism. Populism
can be described as proffering of material goods in return for electoral
support. Voters remain loyal to the party because they expect to receive
benefits in exchange. It was important reason Law and Justice won
election. During the election campaign, they have promised to give
monthly PLN 500 (epsilon 114) in cash handouts to families for every
second and subsequent child. In effect Law and Justice party (PiS) won
absolute majority in the Parliament and Senate in 2015 elections. They
did as promise and after more than a year from election support for
ruling, PiS is still climbed, despite Polish government is clearly
threatening democratic principles.
How could be explained this phenomenon in a country like Poland? Maybe
the mass support for populist PiS reflects growing socioeconomic
inequalities and socially insecure. After decades of communist rule,
Poland transitioned to a democratic government and a market economy. For
more than two decades, the country was developing at a pace exceeding an
average of 4\% a year. On the other hand, in Poland is rapidly rising
level of wealth and income inequality and mass support for populist
political parties. PiS, a right-wing party influenced by the country's
powerful Catholic church, has long argued that the fruits of Poland's
economic growth over the past decade have been felt only by the minority
from urban middle classes. Rewarding working-class people, who typically
have larger families and live in rural areas, mainly in the country's
poorer eastern regions, was a key part of the party's election victory.
The analyse of values, principles and goals of social policy will show
that the new family benefit founded by PiS has nothing to do with social
policy or with populist politics. Its meaning PiS simply used social
policy as electoral investment instrument for attracting electoral
support and buying votes. This situation is very dangerous for democracy
and for the future of civil society in Poland.},

Title = {Improving Native American elder access to and use of health care through
effective health system navigation},
Journal = {BMC HEALTH SERVICES RESEARCH},
Year = {2018},
Volume = {18},
Month = {JUN 18},
Abstract = {Background: Public insurance reforms of the past two decades have failed
to substantively address the healthcare needs of American Indians in
general, let alone the particular needs of American Indian elders, ages
55 years and older. Historically, this population is more likely to be
uninsured and to suffer from greater morbidities, poorer health outcomes
and quality of life, and lower life expectancies compared to all other
United States aging populations, representing a neglected group within
the healthcare system. Despite the pervasive belief that the Indian
Health Service will address all their health-related needs, American
Indian elders are negatively affected by gaps in insurance and lack of
access to health care. While the 2010 Patient Protection and Affordable
Care Act included provisions to ameliorate disparities for American
Indians, its future is uncertain. In this context, American Indian
elders with variable health literacy must navigate a complex and
unstable healthcare system, regardless of where they seek care.
Methods: This community-driven study features a mixed-method,
participatory design to examine help-seeking behavior and healthcare
experiences of American Indian elders in New Mexico, in order to develop
and evaluate a tailored intervention to enhance knowledge of, access to,
and use of insurance and available services to reduce healthcare
disparities. This study includes qualitative and quantitative interviews
combined with concept mapping and focus groups with American Indian
elders and other key stakeholders.
Discussion: The information gathered will generate new practical
knowledge, grounded in actual perspectives of American Indian elders and
other relevant stakeholders, to improve healthcare practices and
policies for a population that has been largely excluded from national
and state discussions of healthcare reform. Study data will inform
development and evaluation of culturally tailored programming to enhance
understanding and facilitate negotiation of the changing landscape of
health care by American Indian elders. This work will fill a gap in
research on public insurance initiatives, which do not typically focus
on this population, and will offer a replicable model for enhancing the
effects of such initiatives on other underserved groups affected by
healthcare inequities.},

Title = {The role of the Government in addressing social issues in Ghana: The
perceptions of Ghanaian undergraduate social work students},
Journal = {JOURNAL OF SOCIAL WORK},
Year = {2015},
Volume = {15},
Number = {2},
Pages = {162-185},
Month = {MAR},
Abstract = {Data for this exploratory study were drawn from a sample of 185 Ghanaian
social work students from one university in Ghana in the Fall of 2010.
Complementary log-log ordinal logistic regressions were run to analyze
the relationship between Ghanaian social work students' sociodemographic
variables and their perceptions of the central government's role in
addressing social issues in Ghana.
Findings The results of this study demonstrated that there are indeed
differences between Ghanaian social work students by age, gender,
marital status, and number of children on their perceptions of the role
of the government in addressing social issues in Ghana. The findings
revealed that social work students who were female, younger, nonmarried,
or without children were more likely to perceive that the government
should ensure employment, health insurance, and equal opportunities to
Ghanaians. Moreover, the findings revealed that social work students
with one or more children were less likely to perceive that the
government should ensure health insurance.
Applications Social work administrators and educators may wish to make
several changes to undergraduate social work students' coursework and
practicum placement training that requires social work students to take
and complete (a) theoretical courses that emphasize concepts associated
with human rights and social justice, (b) diversity courses that
emphasize the intersection between age, gender, marital status, poverty,
and inequality in Ghana, (c) macro courses that emphasize the
historical, political, economic, and social realms of the district,
regional, and central governments in Ghana, and (d) practicum placements
at macro public sector organizations.},

Title = {Strategies for Sustaining and Developing Paddy Farming in the Saga
Plain, Southwestern Japan},
Journal = {JOURNAL OF GEOGRAPHY-CHIGAKU ZASSHI},
Year = {2019},
Volume = {128},
Number = {2, SI},
Pages = {209-233},
Abstract = {Traditional agricultural practice in the Saga plain was formerly a
combination of paddy rice, which was the main crop, and wheat/barley,
which was the secondary crop. However, when production adjustments to
paddy rice started in the 1970s, the original agricultural practice was
changed to a combination of paddy rice and a rotating crop of soybeans
along with a secondary crop of wheat/barley. Further, since the 1970s,
issues such as competition between agricultural land use and urban land
use, income disparity between agricultural and non-agricultural
employment, and a shortage of farming successors became serious, which
in turn caused great difficulty in sustaining agriculture and farmland.
Under such circumstances, farmers in the Saga plain started to develop
rural community-based farming as a strategy to sustain agriculture and
farmland, as well as to manage the harvesting and drying process of
rice, wheat/barley, and soybean collaboratively. Consequently, the block
rotation system of cultivating paddy rice and soybeans together with
shared use of rice planting and harvesting machines progressed and
agriculture and farmland that combined rice, wheat/barley, and soybeans
in the region tended to survive. On the other hand, due to a lack of
leadership, community cohesion, and full-time farmers, some rural
community-based farms began to be converted into agricultural
corporations as another strategy. This strategy was encouraged by a new
national agricultural policy. There were also farmers who did not
participate in rural community-based farming, and many of them were
full-time farmers who functioned as certified farmers. Such full-time
farmers have expanded the scale of managing arable land by purchasing
and leasing farmland (paddy field) from part-time farmers, both inside
and outside the region, with the intention of securing successors to
carry on agriculture. Thus, large-scale rice farmers gradually
amalgamated the paddy fields of part-time farmers and expanded the scale
of agricultural management. There were two types of large-scale
farmer-farmers maintaining relationships with rural community-based
farming and agricultural cooperatives such as JA, and independent
farmers who had a tendency to become agricultural corporations. The
decision to become an agricultural corporation was largely influenced by
several key factors including the existence of a successor to continue
farming, managerial skills of business operators, and the level of the
family workforce of farmers. In other words, as a result of securing
successors, large-scale rice farmers could start businesses such as
drying preparation facilities, and build their own sales networks.
Further, in order to control substantial production costs, the family
workforce was used for production, processing, clerical work, and sales
promotions. As a result, agriculture in the Saga plain was supported by
rural community-based farming, independent large-scale paddy farmers,
and large-scale paddy farmers incorporated into agricultural
organizations, and these divisions of the management strategy were based
on the degree of agricultural labor and community bonding forces. A
series of distinctive strategies largely contributed to the survival and
development of agriculture and farmland in the Saga plain.},

Title = {Do material, psychosocial and behavioural factors mediate the
relationship between disability acquisition and mental health? A
sequential causal mediation analysis},
Journal = {INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF EPIDEMIOLOGY},
Year = {2018},
Volume = {47},
Number = {3},
Pages = {829-840},
Month = {JUN},
Abstract = {Background: There is evidence of a causal relationship between
disability acquisition and poor mental health; however, the mechanism by
which disability affects mental health is poorly understood. This gap in
understanding limits the development of effective interventions to
improve the mental health of people with disabilities.
Methods: We used four waves of data from the Household, Income and
Labour Dynamics in Australia Survey (2011-14) to compare self-reported
mental health between individuals who acquired any disability (n = 387)
and those who remained disability-free (n = 7936). We tested three
possible pathways from disability acquisition to mental health,
examining the effect of material, psychosocial and behavioural
mediators. The effect was partitioned into natural direct and indirect
effects through the mediators using a sequential causal mediation
analysis approach. Multiple imputation using chained equations was used
to assess the impact of missing data.
Results: Disability acquisition was estimated to cause a five-point
decline in mental health {[} estimated mean difference: -5.3, 95\%
confidence interval (CI) -6.8, -3.7]. The indirect effect through
material factors was estimated to be a 1.7-point difference (-1.7, 95\%
CI -2.8, -0.6), explaining 32\% of the total effect, with a negligible
proportion of the effect explained by the addition of psychosocial
characteristics (material and psychosocial: -1.7, 95\% CI -3.0, -0.5)
and a further 5\% by behavioural factors
(material-psychosocial-behavioural: -2.0, 95\% CI -3.4, -0.6).
Conclusions: The finding that the effect of disability acquisition on
mental health operates predominantly through material rather than
psychosocial and behavioural factors has important implications. The
results highlight the need for better social protection, including
income support, employment and education opportunities, and affordable
housing for people who acquire a disability.},

Abstract = {Studies for high-income countries have shown that the prescription that
a man should earn more than his wife holds back women's performance in
the labour market, evidencing the importance of gender identity norms in
explaining persistent gender gaps. Using data on couples in Uruguay for
the period 1986-2016, this paper analyses behavioural responses to the
male breadwinner norm, investigating the role of job informality as an
additional mechanism of response to gender norms. My results show that
the higher the probability that the wife earns more than her husband,
the less likely she is to engage in a formal job, providing evidence
that gender norms affect not only the quantity of labour supply (i.e.
labour force participation and hours of work), but also the quality of
jobs in which women are employed. Moreover, I also identify meaningful
effects of the norm on men: those with lower potential earnings than
their wives react to the norm by self-selecting into better-paid formal
jobs. Not considering these effects would lead to underestimating the
consequences of gender norms on labour market inequalities in the
context of developing countries.},

Volume = {96},
Number = {4},

Month = {JUN},
Abstract = {While maternal employment has become the norm in advanced industrial
nations, gendered norms of parenting and employment disadvantage mothers
in the labor force. This paper sheds new light on motherhood pay gaps by
investigating the contribution of an understudied dynamic-mothers'
overrepresentation in low-paying workplaces. Estimating between-and
within-establishment wage gaps with nationally representative Canadian
linked employer-employee data reveals that segregation in low-paying
establishments accounts for the bulk of mothers' wage disadvantage
relative to childless women. Pay gaps net of human capital differences
are not chiefly a result of mothers' lower wages vis-a-vis similar women
in a given workplace, but rather stem from the fact that mothers are
disproportionately employed in workplaces that pay all employees
relatively poorly. Having identified the importance of
between-establishment segregation, additional analyses probe support for
two theories about underlying mechanisms: compensating differentials
tied to family-supportive work contexts, and discrimination. While each
plays a role, evidence is strongest for discrimination, with
organizational characteristics that tend to reduce opportunities for
discrimination also dramatically reducing or eliminating motherhood pay
gaps.},

Title = {Social and environmental impacts of charcoal production in Liberia:
Evidence from the field},
Journal = {ENERGY FOR SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT},
Year = {2018},
Volume = {47},
Pages = {124-132},
Month = {DEC},
Abstract = {This work provides empirical evidence of social and environmental
impacts of the production phase of charcoal in Liberia, West Africa. It
helps address a gap in information for stakeholders and establishes a
baseline for more focused research and interventions efforts for the
country's sector.
Charcoal is often perceived as a maligned part of the energy ladder,
mainly due to the environmental and health effects of its end use. This
fuel is generally a small part of energy policies or left out
altogether. Main efforts to curtail its impacts are aimed at reducing
its use. The hope is that households will move away from this fuel all
together. But evidence shows that cultural preference, socio-economic
factors, and flaws in the concept of the energy ladder will ensure
charcoal continues to be a significant part of the energy portfolio in
Sub-Saharan Africa. The production phase of the fuel has received little
attention particularly when considering the large environmental and
social impacts faced by producers. In Liberia, where over 90\% of the
urban population depends on this fuel, very little is known about the
situation faced by producers and the impacts resulting from it. The
research team surveyed producers in key charcoal-production areas of
Liberia and interviewed stakeholders from governmental and non-profit
agencies.
Results show that a majority of survey respondents do not replant when
harvesting for production and use traditional earth mound kilns. Child
labor and physical injury were common among respondents. Gender
disparities and a lack of institutional support or formalization of the
industry were identified. Policies aimed at the production phase of
charcoal are generally absent in the country.
Further research is needed to fully understand the situation in Liberia
and more engagement with producers will be key. However, these initial
findings point to the need for focused attention on the production phase
of the fuel and attempt to fill the gap of available data from the
field. (C) 2018 International Energy Initiative. Published by Elsevier

Journal = {PREVENTIVE MEDICINE},
Year = {2018},
Volume = {112},
Pages = {97-103},
Month = {JUL},
Abstract = {Despite substantial declines since the 1960's, heart disease remains the
leading cause of death in the United States (US) and geographic
disparities in heart disease mortality have grown. State-level
socioeconomic factors might be important contributors to geographic
differences in heart disease mortality. This study examined the
association between state-level minimum wage increases above the federal
minimum wage and heart disease death rates from 1980 to 2015 among
`working age' individuals aged 35-64 years in the US. Annual,
inflation-adjusted state and federal minimum wage data were extracted
from legal databases and annual state-level heart disease death rates
were obtained from CDC Wonder. Although most minimum wage and health
studies to date use conventional regression models, we employed marginal
structural models to account for possible time-varying confounding.
Quasi-experimental, marginal structural models accounting for state,
year, and state x year fixed effects estimated the association between
increases in the state-level minimum wage above the federal minimum wage
and heart disease death rates. In models of `working age' adults (35-64
years old), a \$ 1 increase in the state-level minimum wage above the
federal minimum wage was on average associated with similar to 6 fewer
heart disease deaths per 100,000 (95\% CI: -10.4, -1.99), or a
state-level heart disease death rate that was 3.5\% lower per year. In
contrast, for older adults (65+ years old) a \$ 1 increase was on
average associated with a 1.1\% lower state-level heart disease death
rate per year (b=-28.9 per 100,000, 95\% CI: -71.1, 13.3). State-level
economic policies are important targets for population health research.},

Title = {TOWARDS A GENUINE PROGRESS INDICATOR FOR NEW ZEALAND},
Booktitle = {ECOSYSTEM SERVICES IN NEW ZEALAND: CONDITIONS AND TRENDS},
Year = {2013},
Pages = {474-495},
Abstract = {The concept of the Genuine Progress Indicator (GPI) has been developed
internationally to provide a measure of national well-being that can be
used to complement economic indicators. In the absence of an
alternative, Gross Domestic Product (GDP) is currently used as a proxy
measure of well-being, but this has many serious short-comings such as,
not taking into account unpaid contributions made to well-being, or
providing a means for monitoring the extent to which natural capital is
being drawn down or Maintained. Calculation of the GPI starts with the
personal consumption component of GDP and adjusts this figure up or down
for a range of additional social and economic factors. In this chapter,
we describe the GPI calculation process that has been developed for New
Zealand for the period 1970 to 2006. Social factors include income
inequality, non-defensive public consumption, unemployment,
underemployment, overwork, the services from public capital, household
and community work, commuting, private defensive expenditure on health,
and crime. Environmental factors considered include loss and damage to
terrestrial ecosystems, loss of wetlands, soils and air quality, land
degradation, climate change, reduced water quality, ozone depletion,
loss of renewable resources, and noise pollution. Each of these factors
constitutes a consumption or replenishment of non-financial forms of
capital critical to the nation's well-being. At the broadest level, we
found that GDP and the GPI were similar for the period preceding the
reforms of the 1980s. Subsequently, the two measures diverged
substantially. Whereas GDP doubled, the GPI increased by less than 50\%.
In both cases, most of this increase occurred from the early 1990s
onwards. The data reveal areas where well-being is under pressure, and
opportunities for redirecting policy in order to maximise well-being.
Although refinements are needed before the measure can feature routinely
in the country's national accounting, the GPI provides new insights into
the country's development, and the calculation framework can be used to
drive data improvement efforts.},

Abstract = {Introduction: This study examines the associations between state-level
and provider sources of racism and healthcare access and quality for
non-Hispanic Black and White individuals.
Methods: Data from 2 sources were integrated: (1) data from the
Association of American Medical Colleges' Consumer Survey of Health Care
Access (2014-2019), which included measures of self reported healthcare
access, healthcare quality, and provider racial discrimination and (2)
administrative data compiled to index state-level racism. State-level
racism composite scores were calculated from federal sources (U.S.
Census, Department of Labor, Department of Justice). The data set
comprised 21,030 adults (n=2,110 Black, n=18,920 White) who needed care
within the past year. Participants were recruited from a national panel,
and the survey employed age-insurance quotas. Logistic and linear
regressions were conducted in 2020, adjusting for demographic,
geographic, and health-related covariates.
Results: Among White individuals, more state-level racism was associated
with 5\% higher odds of being able to get care and 6\% higher odds of
sufficient time with provider. Among Black individuals, more state-level
racism was associated with 8\% lower odds of being able to get care.
Provider racial discrimination was also associated with 80\% lower odds
of provider explaining care, 77\% lower odds of provider answering
questions, and 68\% lower odds of sufficient time with provider.
Conclusions: State-level racism may engender benefits to healthcare
access and quality for White individuals and may decrease access for
Black individuals. Disparities may be driven by both White advantage and
Black disadvantage. State-level policies may be the actionable levers of
healthcare inequities with implications for preventive medicine. (C)

Title = {Racial and Ethnic Differences in Advance Directive Possession: Role of
Demographic Factors, Religious Affiliation, and Personal Health Values
in a National Survey of Older Adults},
Journal = {JOURNAL OF PALLIATIVE MEDICINE},
Year = {2016},
Volume = {19},
Number = {2, SI},
Pages = {149-156},
Month = {FEB},
Abstract = {Background: Black and Hispanic older Americans are less likely than
white older Americans to possess advance directives. Understanding the
reasons for this racial and ethnic difference is necessary to identify
targets for future interventions to improve advance care planning in
these populations.
Methods: The aim of the study was to evaluate whether racial and ethnic
differences in advance directive possession are explained by other
demographic factors, religious characteristics, and personal health
values. A general population survey was conducted in a nationally
representative sample using a web-enabled survey panel of American
adults aged 50 and older (n = 2154).
Results: In a sample of older Americans, white participants are
significantly more likely to possess advance directives (44.0\%) than
black older Americans (24.0\%, p < 0.001) and Hispanic older Americans
(29.0\%, p = 0.006). Gender, age, retired or disabled employment status,
educational attainment, religious affiliation, Internet access,
preferences for physician-centered decision making, and desiring
longevity regardless of functional status were independent predictors of
advance directive possession. In fully adjusted multivariable models
with all predictors included, black older Americans remained
significantly less likely than white older Americans to have an advance
directive (odds ratio {[}OR] = 0.42, 95\% confidence interval {[}CI] =
0.24-0.75), whereas the effect of Hispanic ethnicity was no longer
statistically significant (OR = 0.65, 95\% CI = 0.39-1.1).
Conclusion: In a nationally representative sample, black race is an
independent predictor for advance directive possession. This association
remains even after adjustment for other demographic variables, religious
characteristics, and personal health values. These findings support
targeted efforts to mitigate racial disparities in access to advance
care planning.},

Title = {Cancer genetic testing in marginalized groups during an era of evolving
healthcare reform},
Journal = {JOURNAL OF CANCER POLICY},
Year = {2021},
Volume = {28},
Month = {JUN},
Abstract = {Background: The Affordable Care Act and subsequent reforms pose
tradeoffs for racial-ethnic, rural, and sex-related groups in the United
States experiencing disparities in BRCA1/2 genetic counseling and
testing and colorectal cancer screening, calling for policy changes.
Methods: A working group of the American Public Health Association
Genomics Forum Policy Committee engaged in monthly meetings to examine
ongoing literature and identify policy alternatives in the coverage of
cancer genetic services for marginalized groups. 589 items were
collected; 408 examined. Efforts continued from February 2015 through
September 2020.
Results: African Americans and Latinos have shown 7-8 \% drops in
uninsured rates since the Exchanges opened. The ACA has increased
BRCA1/2 test availability while several disparities remain, including by
sex. Rural testing and screening utilization rates have improved.
Medicaid expansion and the inclusion of Medicare in the ACA have
resulted in mixed improvements in colorectal cancer screening rates in
marginalized groups.
Conclusion: Cancer genetic testing and screening to date have only
partially benefited from healthcare reforms. Sensitivity to cost
concerns and further monitoring of emerging data are needed. A reduction
in disparities depends on the availability of private insurance,
Medicaid and Medicare to the marginalized. Attention to value-based
design and the way cancer benefits are translated into actual testing
and screening are crucial.
Policy Summary: The findings suggest the need for further
benefits-related health agency interpretation of and amendments to the
ACA, continued Medicaid and innovative Medicare expansion, and
incorporation of cancer services values-based considerations at several
levels, aimed at reducing group disparities.},

Abstract = {Based on the 2014 China Labor-force Dynamics Survey data, this paper
constructs a population diversity index to test the impact of population
diversity on crime rates. The results suggest that population diversity
is one of the causes of increasing urban crime. After considering the
endogeneity problem and testing the robustness from different
perspectives, the conclusion remains unchanged. The results of mediation
tests indicate that social trust is an important mediator variable, that
is, population diversity leads to an increase of crime rate when the
level of social trust is low. Moreover, the results also show that the
impact of population diversity on crime is much weaker when property
rights protections are more complete, people have more confidence in the
court system, and the government spends more on education and social
security. This shows that better institutions can, to some extent,
replace the role of non-market forces, thereby curbing the negative
impact of population diversity on crime rates. It also suggests that
public expenditure can reduce the likelihood of crime by increasing the
opportunity cost of crime. This paper provides empirical evidence
valuable to government crime control policies in China. Governments at
all levels should pay full attention to the adverse effects of cultural
differences in governance and promote mutual cultural recognition and
integration of different groups.},

Abstract = {Agencies offering supported employment (SE) in the European Union (EU)
were surveyed using a Web-based questionnaire in 2006. Responses were
obtained from 184 organizations, primarily from Finland, Spain, and the
United Kingdom (UK). The majority of respondents offered a wide range of
services with 83\% offering SE and about half having begun offering it
in the last 5 years. The data showed many organizations offering
services in addition to SE (e. g., vocational training or sheltered work
provision). There was significant variation in provision of key elements
of SE, particularly workplace support. This may disadvantage people with
intellectual disabilities (ID). Funding of SE varied across areas, with
22\% overall reliant on short-term European funding. People with ID were
the largest group of users by ``minorities{''} in Finland and Spain.
Most worked more than 24 h per week, with only a minority having
permanent contracts. Hours of support were generally low. The authors
conclude that funding for SE is fragile and that variations in the model
used may disadvantage people with more severe ID, and thus lead to less
effective SE. Fewer hours worked in the UK than elsewhere suggest a lack
of harmonization of welfare benefit legislation provision across the EU,
again affecting people with ID disproportionately. The study highlights
the need for follow-up studies.},

multi-benefit cropland repurposing framework},
Journal = {SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT},
Year = {2023},

Abstract = {Low-income, rural frontline communities of California's Central Valley
experience environmental and socioeconomic injustice, water insecurity,
extremely poor air quality, and lack of fundamental infrastructure
(sewage, green areas, health services), which makes them less resilient.
Many communities depend financially on agriculture, while water scarcity
and associated policy may trigger farmland retirement further hindering
socioeconomic opportunities. Here we propose a multi-benefit framework
to repurpose cropland in buffers inside and around (400-m and 1600-m
buffers) 154 rural disadvantaged communities of the Central Valley to
promote socioeconomic opportunities, environmental benefits, and
business diversification. We estimate the potential for (1) reductions
in water and pesticide use, nitrogen leaching, and nitrogen gas
emissions, (2) managed aquifer recharge, and (3) economic and employment
impacts asso-ciated with clean industries and solar energy. Retiring
cropland within 1600-m buffers can result in reductions in water use of
2.18 km3/year, nitrate leaching into local aquifers of 105,500 t/year,
greenhouse gas emissions of 2,232,000 t CO2-equivalent/year, and 5388 t
pesticides/year, with accompanying losses in agricultural revenue of
US\$4213 mil-lion/year and employment of 25,682 positions. Buffer
repurposing investments of US\$27 million/year per community for ten
years show potential to generate US\$101 million/year per community
(total US\$15,578 million/year) for 30 years and 407 new jobs/year
(total 62,697 jobs/year) paying 67 \% more than prior farmworker jobs.
In the San Joaquin Valley (southern Central Valley), where groundwater
overdraft averages 2.3 km3/year, potential water use reduction is 1.8
km3/year. We have identified 99 communities with surficial soils
adequate for aquifer recharge and canals/rivers within 1600 m. This
demonstrates the potential of managed aquifer recharge in buffered zones
to sub-stantially reduce overdraft. The buffers framework shows that
well-planned land repurposing near disadvantaged com-munities can create
multiple benefits for farmers and industry stakeholders, while improving
quality of life in disadvantaged communities and producing positive
externalities for society.},

Wolong Nature Reserve for Giant Pandas in China},
Journal = {ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT},
Year = {2008},
Volume = {42},

Abstract = {Ecotourism is widely promoted as a conservation tool and actively
practiced in protected areas worldwide. Theoretically, support for
conservation from the various types of stakeholder inside and outside
protected areas is maximized if stakeholders benefit proportionally to
the opportunity costs they bear. The disproportional benefit
distribution among stakeholders can erode their support for or lead to
the failure of ecotourism and conservation. Using Wolong Nature Reserve
for Giant Pandas (China) as an example, we demonstrate two types of
uneven distribution of economic benefits among four major groups of
stakeholders. First, a significant inequality exists between the local
rural residents and the other types of stakeholder. The rural residents
are the primary bearers of the cost of conservation, but the majority of
economic benefits (investment, employment, and goods) in three key
ecotourism sectors (infrastructural construction, hotels/restaurants,
and souvenir sales) go to other stakeholders. Second, results show that
the distribution of economic benefits is unequal among the rural
residents inside the reserve. Most rural households that benefit from
ecotourism are located near the main road and potentially have less
impact on panda habitat than households far from the road and closer to
panda habitats. This distribution gap is likely to discourage
conservation support from the latter households, whose activities are
the main forces degrading panda habitats. We suggest that the unequal
distribution of the benefits from ecotourism can be lessened by
enhancing local participation, increasing the use of local goods, and
encouraging relocation of rural households closer to ecotourism
facilities.},

Abstract = {Purpose A systematic review was conducted to review the effectiveness of
workplace accommodation (WA) regarding employment, work ability, and
cost-benefit among disabled people. It also describes the evidence
gained on the barriers and facilitators of WA process to sustain
employment. Methods We reviewed systematically current scientific
evidence about effectiveness of WA among disabled persons. The outcomes
were employment, work ability, and cost-benefit. Qualitative studies of
employment facilitators and barriers were also included. The population
comprised people with physical disability, visual impairment, hearing
impairment, cognitive disability, or mental disability, aged 18-68
years. CINAHL, the Cochrane Library, Embase, Medic, OTseeker, PEDro,
PsycInfo, PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science were searched for
peer-reviewed articles published in English from January 1990 to
November 2012. Results Three quantitative (one randomized controlled,
one concurrently controlled, and one cohort) and eight qualitative
studies met the inclusion criteria. There was moderate evidence that
specific types of WA (vocational counselling and guidance, education and
self-advocacy, help of others, changes in work schedules, work
organization, and special transportation) promote employment among
physically disabled persons and reduce costs. There was low evidence
that WA (liaison, education, work aids, and work techniques) coordinated
by case managers increases return to work and is cost-effective when
compared with the usual care of persons with physical and cognitive
disabilities. The key facilitators and barriers of employment were
self-advocacy, support of the employer and community, amount of training
and counselling, and flexibility of work schedules and work
organization. Conclusions More high-quality studies using validated
measures of the work ability and functioning of disabled persons are
needed. The identified barriers and facilitators found in the
qualitative studies should be used to develop quantitative study
designs.},

Abstract = {People with disabilities (PWD) are a health disparities population who
experience well-documented physical, structural, attitudinal, and
financial barriers to health care. The disability rights community is
deeply engaged in advocacy to promote health care justice for all PWD.
As the community continues to work toward systems change. there is a
critical need for community-directed interventions that ensure
individuals with disabilities are able to access the health care
services they need and are entitled to. Peer health navigator (PHN)
programs have been shown to help people from diverse underserved
communities break down barriers to health care. The PHN model has not
been systematically adapted to meet the needs of PWD. In this article,
we describe the collaborative process of developing Our
Peers-Empowerment and Navigational Supports (OP-ENS), an
evidence-informed PHN intervention for Medicaid beneficiaries with
physical disabilities in Chicago, IL. USA. Our Peers-Empowerment and
Navigational Supports is a 12-month community-based PHN intervention
that pairs Medicaid beneficiaries with physical disabilities (peers)
with disability PHNs who use a structured recursive process of barrier
identification and asset mapping, goal setting. and action planning to
help peers meet their health care needs. Our Peers-Empowerment and
Navigational Supports was developed by a collaborative team that
included disability rights leaders, representatives from a Medicaid
managed care organization. and academic disability health care justice
researchers. We highlight both the conceptual and empirical evidence
that informed OP-ENS as well as the lessons learned that can assist
future developers.},

Title = {Identifying drivers of increasing opioid overdose deaths among black

Abstract = {BackgroundBlack individuals in the USA face disproportionate increases
in rates of fatal opioid overdose despite federal efforts to mitigate
the opioid crisis. The aim of this study was to examine what drives
increases in opioid overdose death among Black Americans based on the
experience of key stakeholders.MethodsFocus groups were conducted with
stakeholders providing substance use prevention services in Black
communities in St. Louis, MO (n = 14). One focus group included peer
advocates and volunteers conducting outreach-based services and one
included active community health workers. Focus groups were held at
community partner organizations familiar to participants. Data
collection was facilitated by an interview guide with open-ended
prompts. Focus groups were audio recorded and professionally
transcribed. Transcripts were analyzed using grounded theory to abstract
line-by-line codes into higher order themes and interpret their
associations.ResultsA core theme was identified from participants'
narratives suggesting that opioid overdose death among Black individuals
is driven by unmet needs for safety, security, stability, and survival
(The 4Ss). A lack of The 4Ss was reflective of structural disinvestment
and healthcare and social service barriers perpetuated by systemic
racism. Participants unmet 4S needs are associated with health and
social consequences that perpetuate overdose and detrimentally impact
recovery efforts. Participants identified cultural and
relationship-based strategies that may address The 4Ss and mitigate
overdose in Black communities.ConclusionsKey stakeholders working in
local communities to address racial inequities in opioid overdose
highlighted the importance of upstream interventions that promote basic
socioeconomic needs. Local outreach efforts utilizing peer services can
provide culturally congruent interventions and promote harm reduction in
Black communities traditionally underserved by US health and social
systems.},

Abstract = {Background:Dedifferentiation refers to the trend of positioning people
with intellectual disabilities together with other disabled individuals
for political purposes, to act as a counter to differentiated
approaches. This article explores the influence of dedifferentiation in
professional support settings through the lived experiences of people
with intellectual disabilities and their staff. Methods:Ethnographic
research, including participant observation and interviews, conducted
with an intellectual disability social care provider and an independent
community cafe, both based in an area of England. Results:Tensions exist
between dedifferentiation aims and the lived experiences of people with
intellectual disabilities, who often struggled to achieve in areas
including independent community inclusion and paid employment.
Conclusion:Dedifferentiation has disadvantages for people with
intellectual disabilities. It can underestimate and mask needs that
people experience in relation to their disabilities. Policy and
professional support might be improved by (1) recognising these limits
and (2) incorporating people's real-world needs into support provision.},

Title = {Social Justice: Disparities in Average Earnings across Portuguese
Municipalities},
Journal = {SOCIAL SCIENCES-BASEL},
Year = {2019},
Volume = {8},
Number = {4},
Month = {APR},
Abstract = {An ever-ongoing discussion these days involves the disparities in
monthly earnings across different genders, geographical locations,
levels of education, economic sectors, and skills and careers, with
various economic and social consequences. In fact, in a framework such
as that in which we live in nowadays (with pertinent concerns about
economic and social convergences across several indicators),
investigating these disparities would be interesting in order to
complement the basis that is considered for the design of social
policies. There are few studies considering the approaches here
developed for this topic. The objective of this study is to analyse the
disparities in the average monthly earnings received by employees across
Portuguese mainland municipalities over the period 2004-2012,
considering as additional analysis criteria geographical location,
gender, levels of qualification, levels of education, economic sectors,
professional activities, and further qualifications. For this both a
cluster and factor analysis were considered to better identify
municipalities with similar characteristics and correlations among
variables. The results show that the disparities in the monthly average
earnings between the Portuguese municipalities are related to three
indexes associated with gender, qualifications, and chosen professions.
The findings presented are specific to the Portuguese framework;
however, the approaches developed in this study may be applied in other
contexts to explore the dynamics related with the topic of social
justice.},

Title = {Palliative care integration: a critical review of nurse migration effect
in Jamaica},
Journal = {BMC PALLIATIVE CARE},
Year = {2021},
Volume = {20},
Number = {1},
Month = {OCT 13},
Abstract = {Background Provision of palliative care to individuals with late-stage
serious illnesses is critical to reduce suffering. Palliative care is
slowly gaining momentum in Jamaica but requires a highly skilled
workforce, including nurses. Out-migration of nurses to wealthier
countries negatively impacts the delivery of health care services and
may impede palliative care capacity-building. This critical review aimed
to explore the evidence pertaining to the nurse migration effect on the
integration of palliative care services in Jamaica and to formulate
hypotheses about potential mitigating strategies. Methods A
comprehensive search in the PubMed, CINAHL, and ProQuest PAIS databases
aimed to identify articles pertinent to nurse migration in the Caribbean
context. Grant and Booth's methodologic framework for critical reviews
was used to evaluate the literature. This methodology uses a narrative,
chronologic synthesis and was guided by the World Health Organization
(WHO) Public Health Model and the Model of Sustainability in Global
Nursing. Results Data from 14 articles were extracted and mapped. Poorer
patient outcomes were in part attributed to the out-migration of the
most skilled nurses. `Push-factors' such as aggressive recruitment by
wealthier countries, lack of continuing educational opportunities,
disparate wages, and a lack of professional autonomy and respect were
clear contributors. Gender inequalities negatively impacted females and
children left behind. Poor working conditions were not necessarily a
primary reason for nurse migration. Four main themes were identified
across articles: (a) globalization creating opportunities for migration,
(b) recruitment of skilled professionals from CARICOM by high income
countries, (c) imbalance and inequities resulting from migration, and
(d) mitigation strategies. Thirteen articles suggested education,
partnerships, policy, and incentives as mitigation strategies. Those
strategies directly align with the WHO Public Health Model drivers to
palliative care integration. Conclusion Emerged evidence supports that
nurse migration is an ongoing phenomenon that strains health systems in
Caribbean Community and Common Market (CARICOM) countries, with Jamaica
being deeply impacted. This critical review demonstrates the importance
of strategically addressing nurse migration as part of palliative care
integration efforts in Jamaica. Future studies should include targeted
migration mitigation interventions and should be guided by the three
working hypotheses derived from this review.},

Land in Ghana},
Journal = {WORLD DEVELOPMENT},
Year = {2016},
Volume = {88},
Pages = {188-200},
Month = {DEC},
Abstract = {Improving women's access to land is high on the agricultural policy
agenda of both governmental and non-governmental agencies. Yet, the
determinants and rationale of gendered access to land are not well
understood. This paper argues that gender relations are more than the
outcomes of negotiations within households. It explains the importance
of social norms, perceptions, and formal and informal rules shaping
access to land for male and female farmers at four levels: (1) the
household/family, (2) the community, (3) the state, and (4) the market.
The framework is applied to Ghana, using the results from qualitative
field work. Norms on household and family organization and on men's and
women's responsibilities and capabilities play a key role in gendered
allocation of resources. However, these norms and perceptions are
dynamic and evolve jointly with the development of markets and changes
in values of inputs such as labor and land. Theoretical models that
represent the gendered distribution of assets as the result of
intrahousehold bargaining should be revised, and extrahousehold factors
should be included. From a policy perspective, laws that ensure gender
equality in terms of inheritance and a more gender-equitable
distribution of property upon divorce can play a key role in improving
women's property rights. Yet, their impact may be limited where
customary rights dominate and social norms and rules continue to
discriminate according to gender. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

Abstract = {In the mid-nineteenth century, the New England Company (NEC), an
Anglican missionary society, focused many of its efforts on hiring
Indigenous teachers for its schools at Grand River and Tyendinaga, two
Haudenosaunee (Iroquois) communities in southern Ontario. The NEC
believed that it was useful to hire Indigenous teachers due to their
ability to speak to the students in one of the local Indigenous
languages as well as in English. Many Haudenosaunee leaders and families
also believed that a Western education would benefit their children and
therefore supported the construction of churches and schools.
Kanyen'keha: ka (Mohawk) women born into this cultural environment
worked to build careers for themselves as on-reserve educators. Some
struggled to secure meaningful employment due to their gender, while
others found work but faced numerous challenges in performing their
jobs. This paper reveals that Kanyen'keha: ka women persisted as
teachers despite gender and material barriers, creating models for
participation in colonial education for Haudenosaunee youth in the
nineteenth century.},

Abstract = {Sri Lanka has experienced a massive demographic, environmental, economic
and social transition in recent decades. Over this period of time the
country has undergone rapid urbanization leading to accompanying shifts
in lifestyle and it suffers a double burden of under-and over-nutrition.
Current programmes in the country focus on improving the dietary
behaviour of secondary school students. The purpose of this study was to
investigate principal's perceptions on barriers to healthy dietary
choice among pupils within a socio-ecological framework. Focus groups (n
= 11) were carried out with school principals and staff (n = 55) in two
rural districts of Sri Lanka. Principals identified a number of barriers
to healthy dietary choice by students, which could be found at a number
of levels of influence of a socio-ecological framework: (i) structural
level barriers included educational and agricultural policies, (ii)
living and working level barriers included employment opportunities and
local food production, (iii) social and community level barriers
included traditions and social/ cultural beliefs and (iv) individual
level barriers included knowledge and preference. Findings from this
study suggest that the barriers to healthy dietary choice amongst
secondary school students in Sri Lanka occur at many levels supporting
the use of multifactorial programmes to promote healthy eating. Only
from understanding these barriers and finding ways to counter them can
we hope to reduce the double burden of under-and over-nutrition the
country is currently suffering.},

Title = {Analysing gender differences in academic performance and labour market
outcomes of engineering graduates: evidence from India},
Journal = {INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF MANPOWER},
Year = {2023},
Month = {2023 JUL 25},
Abstract = {PurposeParticipation of women in engineering education is considerably
low in India, although it is increasing in recent years. Also,
engineering is primarily treated as a male-dominated profession, and the
authors do not find many women in this sector. What factors contribute
to this significant gender differences in engineering education and
labour market in India? In this context, this study aims to examine the
factors that explain the gender variations in academic performance and
labour market outcomes (placement and earnings) of engineering graduates
in India.Design/methodology/approachThe paper is based on primary survey
data from fourth-year engineering students in Delhi, collected in
2018-2019, with a total sample size of 3186. The study uses Ordinary
least square method (OLS) and Heckman selection model to analyse gender
differences in academic performance and labour market outcomes of
engineering graduates, respectively.FindingsThe study finds that
academic performance of male students is around 10.4\% more than female
students. However, this difference is heavily influenced by various
socioeconomic and institutional factors. Interestingly, 3\% of female
engineering graduates have received more job offers than males, which
contradicts the common belief that women engineers face job
discrimination in the labour market in India. However, the authors find
that male engineers earn around 7\% more than female engineers shows the
evidence of pro-male gender wage inequality in earnings. The findings
support that there is a considerable variation in academic performance
and earnings between male and female engineering
graduates.Originality/valueWhile the authors find some literature in the
area of gender difference in the academic performance and labour market
among university graduates in India, studies in the field of engineering
education are sparse. In a context where fewer women are found in the
field of engineering education along with low participation in the
labour market, the findings of this study significantly contribute to
the policy making.},

Title = {Coverage inequality and quality of volunteered geographic features in
Chinese cities: Analyzing the associated local characteristics using
geographically weighted regression},
Journal = {APPLIED GEOGRAPHY},
Year = {2017},
Volume = {78},
Pages = {78-93},
Month = {JAN},
Abstract = {The volunteered geographic information (VGI) gains increasing popularity
with the general public and scientific community. However, the optimism
about the VGI has been tempered by two critical issues: inequality in
data coverage (social justice) and data quality. It therefore requires a
better understanding of the mechanism driving VGI contributions and
content quality. With a case of China, this paper demonstrates one
potential avenue, examining the associations between VGI
coverage/quality and local demographic and socioeconomic
characteristics. In particular, VGI data are harvested from the
OpenStreetMap for 333 cities in China. VGI coverage is measured by the
total volume of different geographic features (point, line and polygon);
and VGI quality is described from two aspects: completeness and
accuracy. Geographically weighted regression (GWR) shows that both
demographic and socioeconomic factors have statistically significant
influences on VGI coverage and quality. More specifically, densely
populous cities with more young, educated and non-agricultural people
enjoy higher VGI coverage and quality. Cities with lower VGI coverage
and quality are primarily located in the western and southwestern
regions where the ethnic minorities concentrate. High VGI coverage and
quality are possibly observed in economically developed cities with high
marketization degree. Besides, possibility of high VGI coverage and
quality occurs in cities with more labor in scientific research and
greater percentage of employers in the tertiary industry. The GWR also
demonstrates that the strength and nature of the obtained relationships
vary across the 333 cities. The spatial non-stationary relationships may
partially answer for the controversial empirical conclusions in earlier
case studies at different scales. Quantitative analysis (Gini index,
Lorenz curve and Moran's I index) further evidences the great inequality
in VGI coverage and quality. It can be safely inferred that the
differences in engagement and use of VGI, as a new digital divide, can
raise troubling concerns on the social justice implications. (C) 2016

Title = {THE INCOME EFFECT OF MINIMUM WAGE FOR THE UNDERCLASS Is It Positive in
China?},
Journal = {WORLD REVIEW OF POLITICAL ECONOMY},
Year = {2017},
Volume = {8},
Number = {4},
Pages = {503-541},
Month = {WIN},
Abstract = {The ongoing debates on the impact of minimum wage have largely focused
on the policy's employment effect for its theoretical implications, but
the real question at stake here is its income effect, that is, whether
or not it can increase the income of the underclass. Previous efforts
have mostly relied on various forms of market imperfection to verify the
theoretical integrity of this policy, whereas in this article we have
raised another Marxian perspective, emphasizing the positive check of
minimum wage on overtime work. Classical economists have long recognized
the vulnerability of the working class when faced against capitalists,
but only Marx has paid special attention to the complicated interaction
between hourly/unit wage rates and the length of the working day,
proposing that low wage rates would not only hurt workers by forcing
them to work overtime, but that it would also hurt the capitalists as a
class once large-scale labor degradation kicks in, endangering the very
existence of a well-functioning working class for them to employ. Both
the inherent conflict of interests between individual capitalists and
capitalists as a class and workers' systematic disadvantage against
capital serve to call for the intervention of a ``visible hand{''} which
is the establishment of a minimum wage. A theoretical model has been
proposed to formalize this wage-hour mechanism for the underclass,
emphasizing the special constraints they face when making labor supply
decisions. We have discussed three different types of income effect,
explaining how workers' income might increase with minimum wage and how
firms might also benefit from such a process.},

Abstract = {Background Recently, United States life expectancy has stagnated or
declined for the poor and working class and risen for the middle and
upper classes. Declining labor-union density-the percent of workers who
are unionized-has precipitated burgeoning income inequity. We examined
whether it has also exacerbated racial and educational mortality
inequities. Methods From CDC, we obtained state-level all-cause and
overdose/suicide mortality overall and by gender, gender-race, and
gender-education from 1986-2016. State-level union density and
demographic and economic confounders came from the Current Population
Survey. State-level policy confounders included the minimum wage, the
generosity of Aid to Families with Dependent Children or Temporary
Assistance for Needy Families, and the generosity of unemployment
insurance. To model the exposure-outcome relationship, we used marginal
structural modeling. Using state-level inverse probability of
treatment-weighted Poisson models, we estimated 3-year moving average
union density's effects on the following year's mortality rates. Then,
we tested for gender, gender-race, and gender-education
effect-modification. Finally, we estimated how racial and educational
all-cause mortality inequities would change if union density increased
to 1985 or 1988 levels, respectively. Results Overall, a 10\% increase
in union density was associated with a 17\% relative decrease in
overdose/suicide mortality (95\% confidence interval {[}CI]: 0.70,
0.98), or 5.7 lives saved per 100 000 person-years (95\% CI: -10.7,
-0.7). Union density's absolute (lives-saved) effects on
overdose/suicide mortality were stronger for men than women, but its
relative effects were similar across genders. Union density had little
effect on all-cause mortality overall or across subgroups, and modeling
suggested union-density increases would not affect mortality inequities.
Conclusions Declining union density (as operationalized in this study)
may not explain all-cause mortality inequities, although increases in
union density may reduce overdose/suicide mortality.},

Title = {China's income gap and inequality under clean energy transformation: A
CGE model assessment},
Journal = {JOURNAL OF CLEANER PRODUCTION},
Year = {2020},
Volume = {251},
Month = {APR 1},
Abstract = {To achieve nationally determined contribution (NDC) targets, China has
developed a series of low carbon development plans. Among them, the
clean energy transformation is very crucial. This study evaluates the
impact of a set of policies including the development of renewable
energy, upgrading heavy industry, and energy efficiency improvement on
China's income gap between 2012 and 2050. A dynamic computable general
equilibrium (CGE) model with detailed representations of economic
activity, an upgraded labor market and disaggregated labor types based
on statistical and survey data is used. Our research provides support
for the necessity of low-carbon policies to achieve NDC targets. Results
show some key findings. First, low-carbon policies have the greatest
impact on employment across all energy industries, with negative impacts
in most traditional energy sectors and positive impacts in most
renewable power sectors. Second, labor will continue to migrate from
rural to urban areas with the transformation of the economic structure
and the urbanization rate will further increase, reaching a maximum of
around 70\%. The reduction of the rural population will bring new
opportunities for the modernization of agriculture, increasing the
income of rural residents and realizing the equitable development
between urban and rural areas. Third, the income gap among urban
residents will widen due to the different level of labor demand for
employees with different education levels. (C) 2019 Elsevier Ltd. All

Title = {Process evaluation of a pragmatic implementation trial to support
self-management for the prevention and management of type 2 diabetes in
Uganda, South Africa and Sweden in the SMART2D project},
Journal = {BMJ OPEN DIABETES RESEARCH \& CARE},
Year = {2022},

Month = {SEP},
Abstract = {Introduction Type 2 diabetes (T2D) and its complications are increasing
rapidly. Support for healthy lifestyle and self-management is paramount,
but not adequately implemented in health systems. Process evaluations
facilitate understanding why and how interventions work through
analyzing the interaction between intervention theory, implementation
and context. The Self-Management and Reciprocal Learning for Type 2
Diabetes project implemented and evaluated community-based interventions
(peer support program; care companion; and link between facility care
and community support) for persons at high risk of or having T2D in a
rural community in Uganda, an urban township in South Africa, and
socioeconomically disadvantaged urban communities in Sweden.
Research design and methods This paper reports implementation process
outcomes across the three sites, guided by the Medical Research Council
framework for complex intervention process evaluations. Data were
collected through observations of peer support group meetings using a
structured guide, and semistructured interviews with project managers,
implementers, and participants.
Results The countries aligned implementation in accordance with the
feasibility and relevance in the local context. In Uganda and Sweden,
the implementation focused on peer support; in South Africa, it focused
on the care companion part. The community-facility link received the
least attention. Continuous capacity building received a lot of
attention, but intervention reach, dose delivered, and fidelity varied
substantially. Intervention-related and context-related barriers
affected participation.
Conclusions Identification of the key uncertainties and conditions
facilitates focus and efficient use of resources in process evaluations,
and context relevant findings. The use of an overarching framework
allows to collect cross-contextual evidence and flexibility in
evaluation design to adapt to the complex nature of the intervention.
When designing interventions, it is crucial to consider aspects of the
implementing organization or structure, its absorptive capacity, and to
thoroughly assess and discuss implementation feasibility, capacity and
organizational context with the implementation team and recipients.
These recommendations are important for implementation and scale-up of
complex interventions.},

Title = {``Raising the curtain on the equality theatre{''}: a study of
recruitment to first healthcare job post-qualification in the UK
National Health Service},
Journal = {HUMAN RESOURCES FOR HEALTH},
Year = {2022},
Volume = {20},

Month = {JUL 8},
Abstract = {Background UK equality law and National Health Service (NHS) policy
requires racial equality in job appointments and career opportunities.
However, recent national workforce race equality standard (WRES) data
show that nearly all NHS organisations in the UK are failing to appoint
ethnically diverse candidates with equivalent training and
qualifications as their white counterparts. This is problematic because
workforce diversity is associated with improved patient outcomes and
other benefits for staff and organisations. Aim To better understand the
reasons behind underrepresentation of ethnically diverse candidates in
first NHS healthcare jobs post-qualification and to identify any
structural or systemic barriers to employment for such groups. Methods
The study was informed by critical theory and the authors'
interdisciplinary perspectives as educators and researchers in the
healthcare professions. Data collected from semi-structured face-to-face
interviews with 12 nurse and physiotherapy recruiting managers from two
NHS trusts in London were analysed using a healthcare workforce equity
and diversity conceptual lens we developed from the literature. Using
this lens, we devised questions to examine six dimensions of equity and
diversity in the interview data from recruiting managers. Results
Recruiting managers said they valued the benefits of an ethnically
diverse workforce for patients and their unit/organisation. However,
their adherence to organisational policies for recruitment and
selection, which emphasise objectivity and standardisation, acted as
constraints to recognising ethnicity as an important issue in
recruitment and workforce diversity. Some recruiting managers sense that
there are barriers for ethnically diverse candidates but lacked
information about workforce diversity, systems for monitoring
recruitment, or ways to engage with staff or candidates to talk about
these issues. Without this information there was no apparent problem or
reason to try alternative approaches. Conclusion These accounts from 12
recruiting managers give a `backstage' view into the reasons behind
ethnic inequalities in recruitment to first healthcare job in the UK
NHS. Adherence to recruitment and selection policies, which aim to
support equality through standardisation and anonymisation, appear to be
limiting workforce diversity and creating barriers for ethnically
diverse candidates to attain the jobs that they are trained and
qualified for. The Healthcare Workforce Equity + Diversity Lens we have
developed can help to `raise the curtain on the equality theatre' and
inform more inclusive approaches to recruitment such as contextualised
recruitment or effective allyship between employers and universities.},

Abstract = {The wealth gap between rich and poor countries, which is growing, causes
poor countries to be pushed to the margins of the world economy, the
growth of unemployment in them, and the impoverishment of the
population. The income inequality that exists in Ukraine has negative
economic and social consequences. Currently, there is a need to use
statistical analysis to study the dynamics of indicators of the level of
well-being of the population, the problems of inequality and poverty in
Ukraine in the context of the performance by the state of its functions
as a subject of social policy in the face of modern challenges and
risks. The purpose of this article is to study inequality, assess the
extent and trends of this phenomenon in Ukraine, determine the
relationship between economic development and socio-economic inequality
and develop proposals to reduce it. The dynamics and structure of the
main indicators of the level of development of material well-being of
the population in the context of statistical evaluation for the period
2000-2020 were analyzed. To analyze the dynamics of the Gini coefficient
in Ukraine, the quintile coefficient of differentiation of aggregate
income of the population and the quintile coefficient of funds (by
aggregate income), the average annual growth/decline in the indexes of
physical volume of GDP, real wages, employment and the number of
unemployed population, the dynamics of the share of spending on social
protection and social welfare in the structure of total budget
expenditure and in the GDP of the country. An in-depth statistical
analysis of the relationship between average monthly disposable income
and the number of people with an average per capita equivalent gross
monthly income below the legal subsistence minimum was conducted. In
developing the state targeted social program to overcome and prevent
poverty in Ukraine, the focus is on ensuring economic growth,
stimulating employment and others, increasing money incomes, conducting
anti-inflationary policies, investments and targeted assistance for the
economic development of certain sectors of the economy.},

review},

Year = {2019},
Volume = {17},
Number = {1},
Pages = {78-91},
Month = {JAN 2},
Abstract = {Conservation agriculture (CA) involves the practice of concurrent
minimum tillage, permanent soil cover using crop residue, and crop
rotation. Evidence indicates that CA increases agricultural
productivity, reduces farming labour requirements, and improves soil
quality. While CA is practised in several African contexts, little is
known about its interaction with gender. This review synthesized
knowledge on the interplay of gender and CA in sub-Saharan Africa. The
review highlighted the relative neglect of gender issues in research on
CA in SSA. Existing research was limited both in quantity and to a few
countries in the region. There was also little critical focus on gender
as a social phenomenon: a few of the studies conceptualized gender in
terms of the socially constructed roles of men and women while the
majority framed it in terms of the sexual categories of male and female.
Compared to men, and due largely to gendered barriers, including lack of
access to land; machinery; inputs; extension services; and credit
facilities, women farmers adopted CA less and dis-adopted it more. CA
increased women's incomes, labour involvement, household food security,
as well as risks for land and crop dispossession by men when farming
becomes lucrative. It also increased workloads, employment opportunities
and health risks for women. CA positively altered gender relations,
boosting women's participation in agricultural decision-making at the
household level. Deliberately enlisting women as beneficiaries; working
with men to advance their understanding of women's needs in agriculture;
and offering agricultural inputs directly to women are some strategies
that enhanced women's participation in CA. Gaps in current research on
gender and CA include: critical focus on and understanding of gender as
a social construct in relation to CA; the long-term impacts on CA for
gender relations, incomes for men and women, and women's empowerment;
the sustainability of strategies for supporting gendered participation
in CA; and the dynamics of gendered access to local farmland markets for
CA.},

Abstract = {This article examines how local state officials operated the Los Angeles
Regional Labor Board, 1933-1934, a regional branch of the National Labor
Board. Amid a surge in workers mobilizing strikes and organizing unions,
which faced fierce business opposition in LA, one of the period's most
anti-union cities, local state officials discarded initial solutions to
industrial conflict - solutions based on state paternalism and involved
parties' voluntary compliance - and proposed more robust state
interventionist tools. Such efforts were to enhance state authority and
power and forge greater class equality by accepting worker rights and
limiting business prerogatives, while the officials also obsessively
encouraged the economic `wheels be kept turning and the pulse
quickened.' Drawing on regional-based archives, we trace local officials
navigating and shaping social relations, and investigate the
unpredictable, everyday workings of local responses to national-level
policy-making. Earlier scholarship on the period highlights the role of
leaders, like FDR or Senator Wagner, or business elites crafting
seemingly pro-working-class policy, alongside the accounts of structural
political economy. We emphasize local state agencies tasked with policy
implementation becoming sites of contention for class actors and state
officials, reflecting more general patterns but also initiating
institutional procedures with enduring implications for US capital-labor
relations.},

Title = {Primary care priorities in addressing health equity: summary of the
WONCA 2013 health equity workshop},
Journal = {INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL FOR EQUITY IN HEALTH},
Year = {2014},
Volume = {13},
Month = {NOV 7},
Abstract = {Background: Research consistently shows that gaps in health and health
care persist, and are even widening. While the strength of a country's
primary health care system and its primary care attributes significantly
improves populations' health and reduces inequity (differences in health
and health care that are unfair and unjust), many areas, such as
inequity reduction through the provision of health promotion and
preventive services, are not explicitly addressed by general practice.
Substantiating the role of primary care in reducing inequity as well as
establishing educational training programs geared towards health
inequity reduction and improvement of the health and health care of
underserved populations are needed.
Methods: This paper summarizes the work performed at the World WONCA
(World Organization of National Colleges and Academies of Family
Medicine) 2013 Meetings' Health Equity Workshop which aimed to explore
how a better understanding of health inequities could enable primary
care providers (PCPs)/general practitioners (GPs) to adopt strategies
that could improve health outcomes through the delivery of primary
health care. It explored the development of a health equity curriculum
and opened a discussion on the future and potential impact of health
equity training among GPs.
Results: A survey completed by workshop participants on the current and
expected levels of primary care participation in various inequity
reduction activities showed that promoting access (availability and
coverage) to primary care services was the most important priority.
Assessment of the gaps between current and preferred priorities showed
that to bridge expectations and actual performance, the following should
be the focus of governments and health care systems: forming
cross-national collaborations; incorporating health equity and cultural
competency training in medical education; and, engaging in initiation of
advocacy programs that involve major stakeholders in equity promotion
policy making as well as promoting research on health equity.
Conclusions: This workshop formed the basis for the establishment of
WONCA's Health Equity Special Interest Group, set up in early 2014,
aiming to bring the essential experience, skills and perspective of
interested GPs around the world to address differences in health that
are unfair, unjust, unnecessary but avoidable.},

Abstract = {This article examines how Affirmative Action was used to govern access
to higher education for the disadvantaged. In 1991, a gender-based
Affirmative Action policy was incorporated into college admission in
Uganda. Using existing empirical data at district and college levels,
the article accounts for the categories of women for whom the Uganda's
Affirmative Action policy is most effective. The study found that
Affirmative Action had a substantial effect. Sixty-six per cent of the
sampled population would not have been admitted, had it not been for
Affirmative Action. But the policy did not work for the historically
disadvantaged; it worked for specific categories of women from specific
regions, districts and high schools; on grounds that it was implemented
for competitive reasons. The study provides relevant lessons for policy
making in countries grappling with the challenges of high socio-economic
inequality and higher returns to higher education.},

Abstract = {Childcare services are increasingly regarded a major policy lever to
combat social inequalities in early life. Yet, it was shown that
inequality in the use of childcare services is the norm rather than the
exception in European and Organisation for Economic Co-operation and
Development (OECD) countries. As a result, social inequalities between
disadvantaged and advantaged children are likely to be reinforced
instead of being narrowed. The aim of this article is to conduct a
macro-level analysis exploring which welfare state characteristics are
associated with inequality in childcare use. We find that government
involvement in the availability, affordability and quality of service
provision is related to lower levels of inequality in childcare use. The
results also suggest an impact of labour market opportunities and
parental leave schemes. The findings contribute to a proper
understanding of the institutional mechanisms underlying inequality in
childcare service use.},

Title = {Social Vulnerability and Mental Health Inequalities in the
``Syndemic{''}: Call for Action},
Journal = {FRONTIERS IN PSYCHIATRY},
Year = {2022},
Volume = {13},
Month = {MAY 30},
Abstract = {Covid-19 is referred to as a ``syndemic,{''} i.e., the consequences of
the disease are exacerbated by social and economic disparity. Poor
housing, unstable work conditions, caste, class, race and gender based
inequities and low incomes have a profound effect on mental health and
wellbeing. Such disparities are increasing between, among and within
countries and are exacerbated by human rights violations, in institution
and in society, stigma and discrimination. Social capital can mediate
health outcomes, through trust and reciprocity, political participation,
and by mental health service systems, which can be coercive or more open
to demand of emancipation and freedom. Societal inequalities affect
especially vulnerable groups, and Covid itself had a wider impact on the
most socially vulnerable and marginalized populations, suffering for
structural discrimination and violence. There are complex relations
among these social processes and domains, and mental health inequalities
and disparity. Participation and engagement of citizens and community
organizations is now required in order to achieve a radical
transformation in mental health. A Local and Global Action Plan has been
launched recently, by a coalition of organizations representing people
with lived experience of mental health care; who use services; family
members, mental health professionals, policy makers and researchers,
such as the International Mental Health Collaborating Network, the World
Federation for Mental Health, the World Association for Psychosocial
Rehabilitation, the Global Alliance of Mental Illness Advocacy Networks
(GAMIAN), The Mental Health Resource Hub in Chennai, India, The Movement
for Global Mental Health (MGMH) and others. The Action Plan addresses
the need for fundamental change by focusing on social determinants and
achieving equity in mental health care. Equally the need for the
politics of wellbeing has to be embedded in a system that places mental
health within development and social justice paradigm, enhancing core
human capabilities and contrasting discriminatory practices. These
targets are for people and organizations to adopt locally within their
communities and services, and also to indicate possible innovative
solutions to Politics. This global endeavor may represent an alternative
to the global mental discourse inspired by the traditional biomedical
model.},

Title = {Spatio-temporal pattern and driving mechanisms of cropland circulation
in China},
Journal = {LAND USE POLICY},
Year = {2021},
Volume = {100},
Month = {JAN},
Abstract = {Land circulation is the transfer of land management rights without
change of contracting and ownership rights. This is an effective
solution for alleviating land fragmentation, facilitating the transfer
of surplus rural labor, and improving rural income. Based on the
provincial-level survey data from the Ministry of Agriculture of China,
this study analyzes the spatio-temporal pattern of cropland circulation
based on the cropland circulation rate (CCR), and explores the driving
mechanism of cropland circulation from the perspectives of population,
economy, agricultural investment, and legalization. The results showed
that the CCR exhibited a polarized spatial pattern of ``high value in
the east and low value in the west{''} across China. Moreover, we
observed significant spatial agglomeration of CCR, with Jiangsu,
Zhejiang, and Shanghai as centers of high CCR values and Sichuan and
Gansu as centers of low CCR values. Furthermore, the spatial disparity
of CCR showed an obviously narrowing trend during the period from 2014
to 2018. As for the circulation modes of cropland, the dominant mode in
China is leasing (sub-contracting), which is easy to implement and
directly increases farmers' incomes. This paper further found that the
critical driving forces of cropland circulation can be summarized as
follows: transformation of rural labor to non-farming occupations,
improvement of rural income, and legalization of land circulation
markets. It should be noted that many off-farm workers have not given up
their management rights for cropland, which is due to the following
reasons: unstable job opportunities and insufficient social benefits of
off-farm workers, low income from land rent and agricultural production,
and lack of legal framework for land circulation. Therefore, urban-rural
binary household registration (hukou) and migrant worker employment
systems in China should be gradually reformed to accelerate the
non-farming transformation of rural labor. Preferential policies for
industrial investment can be made to attract more factories to operate
in rural areas, which will bring more non-farming jobs to local famers
and directly increase their incomes. Moreover, financial subsidy
policies, land tenure system reform, and farmland consolidation
strategies should also be launched to make land circulation more
profitable for both land-givers and land-receivers. Finally, laws and
regulations could be perfected and enforced to improve the legalization
level of the land circulation market.},

Title = {Perceived barriers and primary care access experiences among immigrant
Bangladeshi men in Canada},
Journal = {FAMILY MEDICINE AND COMMUNITY HEALTH},
Year = {2020},
Volume = {8},
Number = {4},
Month = {SEP},
Abstract = {Objective The study aimed to explore the experience of male members of a
rapidly grown community of Bangladeshi immigrants while accessing
primary healthcare (PHC) services in Canada.
Design A qualitative research was conducted among a sample of
Bangladeshi immigrant men through a community-based participatory
research approach. Focus group discussions were conducted to collect the
qualitative data where thematic analysis was applied.
Setting The focus group discussions were held in various community
centres such as individual meeting rooms at public libraries, community
halls and so on arranged in collaboration with community organisations
while ensuring complete privacy.
Participant Thirty-eight adults, Bangladeshi immigrant men, living in
Calgary were selected for this study and participated in six different
focus groups. The sample represents mostly married, educated, Muslim,
Bangla speaking, aged over 25 years, full-time or self-employed and
living in an urban centre in Canada >5 years.
Result The focus groups have highlighted long wait time as an important
barrier. Long wait at the emergency room, difficulties to get access to
general physicians when feeling sick, slow referral process and long
wait at the clinic even after making an appointment impact their daily
chores, work and access to care. Language is another important barrier
that impedes effective communication between physicians and immigrant
patients, thus the quality of care. Unfamiliarity with the healthcare
system and lack of resources were also voiced that hinder access to
healthcare for immigrant Bangladeshi men in Canada. However, no
gender-specific barriers unique to men have been identified in this
study.
Conclusion The barriers to accessing PHC services for Bangladeshi
immigrant men are similar to that of other visible minority immigrants.
It is important to recognise the extent of barriers across various
immigrant groups to effectively shape public policy and improve access
to PHC.},

Title = {Critical Elements of Community Engagement to Address Disparities and
Related Social Determinants of Health: The Centers of Disease Control
and Prevention Community Approaches to Reducing Sexually Transmitted
Disease Initiative},
Journal = {SEXUALLY TRANSMITTED DISEASES},
Year = {2021},
Volume = {48},
Number = {1},
Pages = {49-55},
Month = {JAN},
Abstract = {Background
Community Approaches to Reducing Sexually Transmitted Disease (CARS), a
unique initiative of the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention,
promotes the use of community engagement to increase sexually
transmitted disease (STD) prevention, screening, and treatment and to
address locally prioritized STD-related social determinants of health
within communities experiencing STD disparities, including youth,
persons of color, and sexual and gender minorities. We sought to
identify elements of community engagement as applied within CARS.
Methods and Materials
Between 2011 and 2018, we collected and analyzed archival and in-depth
interview data to identify and explore community engagement across 8
CARS sites. Five to 13 interview participants (mean, 7) at each site
were interviewed annually. Participants included project staff and
leadership, community members, and representatives from local community
organizations (e.g., health departments; lesbian, gay, bisexual,
transgender, and queer-serving organizations; faith organizations;
businesses; and HIV-service organizations) and universities. Data were
analyzed using constant comparison, an approach to grounded theory
development. Results
Twelve critical elements of community engagement emerged, including
commitment to engagement, partner flexibility, talented and trusted
leadership, participation of diverse sectors, establishment of vision
and mission, open communication, reducing power differentials, working
through conflict, identifying and leveraging resources, and building a
shared history. Conclusions
This study expands the community engagement literature within STD
prevention, screening, and treatment by elucidating some of the critical
elements of the approach and provides guidance for practitioners,
researchers, and their partners as they develop, implement, and evaluate
strategies to reduce STD disparities.},

Journal = {ANNALS OF WORK EXPOSURES AND HEALTH},
Year = {2017},
Volume = {61},
Number = {1},
Pages = {3-15},
Month = {JAN 1},
Abstract = {Objectives: Economic, social, technical, and political drivers are
fundamentally changing the nature of work and work environments, with
profound implications for the field of occupational health.
Nevertheless, researchers and practitioners entering the field are
largely being trained to assess and control exposures using approaches
developed under old models of work and risks.
Methods: A speaker series and symposium were organized to broadly
explore current challenges and future directions for the occupational
health field. Broad themes identified throughout these discussions are
characterized and discussed to highlight important future directions of
occupational health.
Findings: Despite the relatively diverse group of presenters and topics
addressed, some important cross-cutting themes emerged. Changes in work
organization and the resulting insecurity and precarious employment
arrangements change the nature of risk to a large fraction of the
workforce. Workforce demographics are changing, and economic disparities
among working groups are growing. Globalization exacerbates the `race to
the bottom' for cheap labor, poor regulatory oversight, and limited
labor rights. Largely, as a result of these phenomena, the historical
distinction between work and non-work exposures has become largely
artificial and less useful in understanding risks and developing
effective public health intervention models. Additional changes related
to climate change, governmental and regulatory limitations, and
inadequate surveillance systems challenge and frustrate occupational
health progress, while new biomedical and information technologies
expand the opportunities for understanding and intervening to improve
worker health.
Conclusion: The ideas and evidences discussed during this project
suggest that occupational health training, professional practice, and
research evolve towards a more holistic, public health-oriented model of
worker health. This will require engagement with a wide network of
stakeholders. Research and training portfolios need to be broadened to
better align with the current realities of work and health and to
prepare practitioners for the changing array of occupational health
challenges.},

Abstract = {Youth with disabilities receiving Supplemental Security Income (SSI)
experience multiple barriers to successful transitions to postsecondary
education and employment. To improve outcomes for this group, the
PROMISE Initiative funded six demonstration programs across the US to
test a set of evidence-based services linked to improved employment and
educational outcomes, such as case management, benefits counseling, and
financial literacy training. Unfortunately, study youth and families did
not fully engage in program services, perhaps diminishing effectiveness
of the intervention and opportunities for better outcomes. The aim of
this descriptive qualitative study was to document family crises
experienced by PROMISE participants and explore how these crises
contributed to their lack of engagement from the perspectives of case
managers who worked with young SSI beneficiaries and their families.
Focus groups with nine case managers representing six states from one
PROMISE program identified five types of family crises: financial,
transportation, behavioral, legal/corrections, and family conflict.
Findings suggest that case managers may need additional resources to
effectively address the crises encountered. Strategies and future
interventions to address crisis situations are suggested.},

Volume = {27},
Number = {1},
Pages = {30-36},
Month = {SEP-NOV},
Abstract = {Objectives
To gain a consensus view of potential roles for Nurse Practitioners
(NPs) in a rural Australian hospital and identify the barriers and
enablers in their development and implementation.
Design
A three round Delphi study.
Setting
A rural hospital.
Participants
Twenty eight nurses, five doctors, four consumers, two health service
managers, two allied health practitioners, one midwife, three community
workers, two administrators and three others with hospital affiliation.
Main Outcome Measures
Consensus at 75\% level of agreement or greater, identifying service
gaps which might benefit from NPs and the barriers and enablers
impacting on the success of developing and implementing the role.
Results
Introduce mental health, aged and critical care NPs initially. Barriers
and enablers identified as impacting on the development and
implementation of the role were:
Educational access for isolated rural nurses local cohort learning with
employment contracts encompassing fee assistance and designated study
time.
Acceptance from doctors - supported role provided the proposed service
is sustainable. Small teams of NPs would achieve this.
Inappropriate Recruitment - NP role matching service need, not
individual.
Policy and Funding Constraints - clients are best served by NPs working
across the care continuum. Co funding by acute and community providers
could overcome the current constraints of commonwealth/state payment.
Conclusion
In developing and implementing NP roles at a rural health service the
issues of access to tertiary education, creating a sustainable number of
NP positions and financial cooperation from community and acute
providers must be taken into account. Only then can nurses who wish to
take on this NP role in a rural health service have the possibility of
success.},

the ACA: Qualitative findings},
Journal = {DISABILITY AND HEALTH JOURNAL},
Year = {2019},
Volume = {12},
Number = {3},

Month = {JUL},
Abstract = {Background: Although health insurance gains are documented, little is
known about personal experiences of adults with disabilities in
accessing health care after coverage expansions of the Affordable Care
Act (ACA) in 2014.
Objective/Hypothesis: We interviewed 22 adults across the U.S. with a
variety of disabilities and health insurance types to document remaining
barriers to health care after ACA coverage expansions.
Methods: Telephone interviews were conducted from May to August 2017.
Participants were recruited via disability-related organizations and
were demographically and geographically diverse. Content analysis of
interview transcripts was used to identify major themes related to
accessing health care.
Results: Five major themes emerged: 1) information and understanding of
coverage; 2) out-of-pocket costs; 3) prescription medications; 4)
provider networks; and 5) transportation. Barriers in these areas led
participants to delay or forgo health care and interfered with their
ability to participate in paid employment.
Conclusions: The ACA was intended to expand access to insurance
coverage, not necessarily meet all health care related needs for people
with disabilities. Many barriers remain to accessing needed care for
this population, regardless of insurance status. Limited prescription
coverage, limited provider networks and steep out-of-pocket costs may be
addressed by policy makers at the state or national level. Similarly,
having timely and accurate plan information is important in facilitating
access to care and insurers should be aware that outdated information
can result in missed care. Finally, transportation to appointments can
be especially challenging for people with disabilities and insurers
should consider options to address this issue. (C) 2019 Elsevier Inc.

Title = {The Inclusiveness of Maternity Leave Rights over 120 Years and across
Five Continents},
Journal = {SOCIAL INCLUSION},
Year = {2021},
Volume = {9},
Number = {2},
Pages = {275-287},
Abstract = {Even though paid maternity leave was the earliest form of social
protection specifically aimed at women workers and is fundamental in
securing their economic independence vis-a-vis employers and spouses, it
has received scant scholarly attention. Neither the traditional
historical accounts of welfare state emergence nor the more recent
gendered analyses of developed welfare states have provided comparative
accounts of its beginnings and trajectories. Employing the newly created
historical database of maternity leave, we provide the first global and
historical perspective on paid maternity leave policies covering 157
countries from the 1880s to 2018. Focusing on eligibility rather than
generosity, we construct a measure of inclusiveness of paid maternity
leaves to highlight how paid maternity leave has shaped not only gender
but also social inequality, which has, until recently, largely been
ignored by the literature on leave policies. The analyses of coverage
expansion by sector and the development of eligibility rules reveal how
paid maternity leave has historically stratified women workers by
occupation and labor market position but is slowly evolving into a more
universal social right across a broad range of countries. Potential
drivers for this development are identified using multivariate analysis,
suggesting a pivotal role for the political empowerment of women in the
struggle for gender and social equality. However, the prevalence of
informal labor combined with insufficient or non-existing maternity
benefits outside the systems of social insurance still poses significant
obstacles to the protection of women workers in some countries.},

Review},

Volume = {9},

Abstract = {In most organisations, women are underrepresented in top positions. Many
aspects of Women's Leadership are studied in the literature for
underrepresentation of women leaders. This study aims to analyse and
consolidate the insights about those aspects of Women's Leadership,
which gives them a stable and secure position in the organisation,
beyond the unseen walls of gender discrimination. These aspects are
barriers, enablers, strengths and weaknesses of Women's Leadership. The
research method used for the study is a systematic literature review
method. Peer-reviewed, scholarly journal articles and book references
between 1990 and 2021 identified from the Scopus and Web of Sciences
databases are considered for the study. The result showed much
uniformity in the `Women's Leadership' phenomenon, globally. This
research found that Women's Leadership studies are mostly conducted in
areas such as social sciences, business and management, medicine,
education, etc. It also found that most women-leadership-related studies
are conducted in developed countries where the percentage of women
leaders is comparatively higher than in other industries. Still, women
leaders in both developed and developing countries face similar barriers
during their careers. The gender gap and the glass ceiling they have to
break are some of the issues experienced by women in any organisation.
Organisational bias, lack of assertiveness and poor networking also pose
barriers to Women's Leadership. Yet, there are some enablers for Women's
Leadership, such as mentoring, good training programmes and workplace
culture. However, maintaining a work-life balance, working under
pressure and excluding informal communication are considered as
limitations for Women's Leadership. Strengths, such as high emotional
intelligence, empathy, democratic leadership style, sincerity and
ability to make decisions under critical circumstances benefit the
organisation. This study will help to get an integrated and consolidated
theoretical review of different aspects of Women's Leadership in the
organisation. Moreover, the study can help to implement various
organisational policies to increase the percentage of women in
leadership roles.},

Title = {Whose Problem Is It? Gender Differences in Faculty Thinking About Campus
Service},
Journal = {TEACHERS COLLEGE RECORD},
Year = {2016},
Volume = {118},
Number = {8},
Month = {AUG},
Abstract = {Background/Context: Empirical evidence suggests women faculty spend more
time in campus service than men, which perpetuates inequality between
men and women because research is valued more than service in academic
reward systems, especially at research universities.
Purpose/Focus of Study: In this study I apply insights from research on
gender inequality to examine whether women and men faculty at a research
university were thinking about their campus service differently. I add
to the literature by (1) making faculty thinking about campus service
visible, (2) examining how this thinking is constrained by gender, and
the gendered nature of organizations, and (3) revealing how
individualistic and cosmopolitan orientations, and communal and local
orientations appear together in faculty thinking about campus service.
Research Design: My research assistants and I conducted 60-75
minute-long, semistructured interviews with 88 faculty including 34 men
and 54 women on their work environment experiences. Interview questions
focused on choices that faculty had made to emphasize different kinds of
work (teaching, research, service), balance work priorities, and
succeed.
Findings/Results: Overall, more women framed campus service in communal
terms and expressed local orientations toward campus service; more men
positioned service as a campus problem, and noted their own interests to
avoid or minimize involvement in campus service so as not to hurt their
career. In a smaller group of cases, (e.g., four men and five women) the
faculty member expressed the dominant pattern for the other gender;
however, even in these cases participants provided examples of the
dominant pattern for their gender as well. In all cases, women and men
were influenced by gendered ways of thinking about work, and gendered
organizational practices that permeated their socialization and work
environments.
Conclusions/Recommendations: Findings suggest that interventions are
needed to affect thinking about campus service within university
environments, as thinking shapes gendered divisions of labor. Sharing
campus service data transparently, developing department consensus about
appropriate levels of service contributions, and developing a sense of
collective ownership for academic programs are examples of organizing
practices that could generate change toward more gender neutral
divisions of labor. Addressing the complex issue of inequality in campus
service is not only about counting the numbers of service activities,
although this is important. It is also critical to understand how
faculty may be approaching the issue, the forces shaping their thinking,
and the consequences of their thinking for individual careers and the
future of the academic community.},

Development: the Experience of India},
Journal = {MGIMO REVIEW OF INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS},
Year = {2020},
Volume = {13},
Number = {3},
Pages = {151-169},
Abstract = {The article deals with the role of small scale industry in India in
achieving the sustainable development. The author draws attention to the
fact that the small scale industry promotion policy impacts
significantly not only on decreasing the unemployment rate as well as
long-term and youth unemployment but also on solving such acute social
problems as poverty, famine, undernourishment and food insecurity, lack
of quality education, gender inequality and the empowerment of women.
The author pays attention to the evolution of small business in India in
1950-2010s. It argues convincingly that due to significant number of
population as well as low-skilled labor on the one hand and limited
financial resources on the other one small business has been considered
to be a buffer between modern big business and the bulk of the
population remaining outside it. The author considers the effectiveness
of the industrial policy through the prism of stimulating small-scale
industry and changing its place in the Indian economy. The author
examines the activity of the The National Bank for Agricultural and
Rural Development (NABARD) which is considered to be the most important
institution which looks after the development of the small scale
industries.The aim of NABARD was poverty reduction and development
assistance (it's one of the premier agencies providing developmental
credit in rural areas). The article presents the definition of small
scale industry in India both in terms of employment level and the
investment limits as well as statistical data on number of units, its
share in industrial production and exports and expansion of small scale
sector in 2000-20105. The author identified main problems facing cottage
and small scale industries in India at the present time.
The research is based on the systematic approach to the study of
national economy using basic methods of scientific knowledge such as
induction and deduction, analysis and synthesis.},

Tanzania},
Journal = {WORLD DEVELOPMENT},
Year = {2018},
Volume = {109},
Pages = {497-510},
Month = {SEP},
Abstract = {The economy of Tanzania, like those of many other sub-Saharan African
countries, displays strong geographic and locational disparities. We
develop a three-location spatial applied general equilibrium model
calibrated to the 2001 Tanzanian Social Accounting Matrix to examine the
impact of various public investment programs on household welfare across
this diverse geography in which production and consumption are
locationally specific and transport costs support equilibrium price
differences across locations. We examine how different public investment
packages combined with reforms in the transport sector alter the
equilibrium structure and location of economic activity. The choice of
financing arrangement matters for welfare, since tax incidence, relative
price, and real exchange rate movements are non neutral. We show that
the distributional consequences of alternative investment programs may
matter more in terms of household welfare than the direct consequences
of targeting investment to particular sectors or locations. For
instance, under some financing scenarios, interventions that aid
agriculture may lead to decreases in the welfare of the rural unskilled
labor force, because the financing mechanisms create distortions that
effectively skew the terms of trade sufficiently powerfully against the
rural unskilled as to outweigh the direct welfare-enhancing effects of
the public investment. We also note that welfare gains are generated by
the movement of rural workers out of quasi-subsistence agriculture into
higher productivity jobs in other sectors and locations. (C) 2016

Title = {Trends of amenable deaths due to healthcare within the European Union
countries. Exploring the association with the economic crisis and
education},
Journal = {SSM-POPULATION HEALTH},
Year = {2021},
Volume = {16},
Month = {DEC},
Abstract = {The study of premature deaths from causes that are generally preventable
given the current availability of healthcare - called amenable deaths
due to healthcare - provides information on the quality of services.
However, they are not only impacted by healthcare characteristics: other
factors are also likely to influence. Therefore, identifying the
association between amenable deaths due to healthcare and health
determinants, such as education, might be the key to preventing these
deaths in the future. Still unclear however, is how this works and how
amenable deaths due to healthcare are distributed and evolve within the
European Union (EU) below the national level. We therefore studied the
geographical and temporal patterns of amenable deaths due to healthcare
in the 259 EU regions from 1999 to 2016, including the 2007-2008
financial crisis and the post-2008 economic downturn, and identified
whether any association with education exists.
A cross-sectional ecological study was carried out. Using a hierarchical
Bayesian model, we estimated the average smoothed Standardized Mortality
Ratios (sSMR). A regression model was also applied to measure the
relative risks (RR) at 95\% credible intervals for cause-specific
mortality association with education.
Results show that amenable deaths due to healthcare decreased globally.
Nevertheless, the decrease is not the same across all regions, and
inequalities within countries do persist, with lower mortality ratios
seen in regions from Central European countries and higher mortality
ratios in regions from Eastern European countries. Also, the evolution
trend reveals that after the financial crisis, the number of these
deaths increased in regions across almost all EU countries. Moreover,
educational disparities in mortality emerged, and a statistical
association was found between amenable deaths due to healthcare and
early exit from education and training.
These results confirm that identifying and understanding the background
of regional differences may lead to a better understanding of the
amenable deaths due to healthcare and allow for the application of more
effective policies.},

Title = {Can the minimum wage reduce poverty and inequality in the developing
world? Evidence from Brazil},
Journal = {WORLD DEVELOPMENT},
Year = {2021},
Volume = {138},
Month = {FEB},
Abstract = {Even though there is growing social support for higher minimum wages as
anti-poverty policy tools, very little is known about their
effectiveness in reducing poverty or inequality in the developing world.
Latin America's largest economy offers a fertile setting for shedding
light on the issue, in being a large and data-rich country where
frequent increases in the minimum wage can allow for direct estimation
of influence on the distribution of income. Using a
difference-in-difference estimator that takes advantage of substantial
regional income variation and 21 increases in the Brazilian national
wage floor, the study finds that within three months of these minimum
wage hikes, poverty and inequality declined by 2.8\% and 2.4\%,
respectively. Influence waned over time, particularly with respect to
bottom-sensitive distribution measures, a development that is consistent
with resulting job loses that fell more heavily among poorer households.
The fact that the following annual hike in the minimum wage led to a
renewed decline in poverty and inequality, suggests that potential
unemployment costs were again overwhelmed by benefits in the form of
higher wages among working individuals. However, evidence also
establishes an inelastic relationship between wage floor hikes and
changes in the incidence of poverty, as well as diminishing returns to
the strategy when the legal minimum is high relative to median earnings.

Title = {Unveiling and addressing implementation barriers to routine immunization
in the peri-urban slums of Karachi, Pakistan: a mixed-methods study},
Journal = {HEALTH RESEARCH POLICY AND SYSTEMS},
Year = {2021},
Volume = {19},
Number = {SUPPL 2, 2, SI},
Month = {AUG 11},
Abstract = {Background Great disparities in immunization coverage exist in Pakistan
between urban and rural areas. However, coverage estimates for large
peri-urban slums in Sindh are largely unknown and implementation
challenges remain unexplored. This study explores key supply- and
demand-side immunization barriers in peri-urban slums, as well as
strategies to address them. It also assesses immunization coverage in
the target slums. Methods Conducted in four peri-urban slums in Karachi,
this mixed-methods study consists of a baseline cross-sectional coverage
survey of a representative sample of 840 caregivers of children aged
12-23 months, and 155 in-depth interviews (IDIs) through purposive
sampling of respondents (caregivers, community influencers and
immunization staff). After identifying the barriers, a further six IDIs
were then conducted with immunization policy-makers and policy
influencers to determine strategies to address these barriers, resulting
in the development of an original validated implementation framework for
immunization in peri-urban slums. A thematic analysis approach was
applied to qualitative data. Results The survey revealed 49\% of
children were fully vaccinated, 43\% were partially vaccinated and 8\%
were unvaccinated. Demand-side immunization barriers included household
barriers, lack of knowledge and awareness, misconceptions and fears
regarding vaccines and social and religious barriers. Supply-side
barriers included underperformance of staff, inefficient utilization of
funds, unreliable immunization and household data and interference of
polio campaigns with immunization. The implementation framework's policy
recommendations to address these barriers include: (1) improved human
resource management; (2) staff training on counselling; (3)
re-allocation of funds towards incentives, outreach, salaries and
infrastructure; (4) a digital platform integrating birth registry and
vaccination tracking systems for monitoring and reporting by frontline
staff; (5) use of digital platform for immunization targets and
generating dose reminders; and (6) mutual sharing of resources and data
between the immunization, Lady Health Worker and polio programmes for
improved coverage. Conclusions The implementation framework is
underpinned by the study of uncharted immunization barriers in complex
peri-urban slums, and can be used by implementers in Pakistan and other
developing countries to improve immunization programmes in
limited-resource settings, with possible application at a larger scale.
In particular, a digital platform integrating vaccination tracking and
birth registry data can be expanded for nationwide use.},

Pages = {234-257},
Abstract = {Purpose - Networking practices are considered to be an important career
advancement strategy. However, little empirical research exists which
provides understanding of this phenomenon as it relates to the
differences in practices and experiences between genders. The purpose of
this paper is to explore how the role and nature of networking and
career relationships in nonprofit sport organizations is perceived to
impact career development.
Design/methodology/approach - In total, 34 semi-structured interviews
were conducted with male and female executives in a range of nonprofit
organizations to elicit views, attitudes, and information regarding
formal and informal networking strategies and practices employed in this
context.
Findings - Findings highlight differences in perceptions of how
networking is defined, the central role of mentors, the nature of
networking relationships, and networking strategies. The authors found
that there are various perceived barriers with regard to gender and
organizational culture in sport national governing bodies (NGBs).
Research limitations/implications - Networking practice and policy
implications are discussed for sport NGBs and other organizations. The
authors offer recommendations for future research.
Originality/value - The project adds value to the understanding of the
career advancement of women as it directly compares perceptions of men
and women.},

Title = {Do women's empowerment and self-expression values change adolescents'
gendered occupational expectations? Longitudinal evidence against the
gender-equality paradox from 26 European countries},
Journal = {FRONTIERS IN SOCIOLOGY},
Year = {2023},
Volume = {8},
Month = {JUN 9},
Abstract = {Despite the increases in women's educational attainment in recent
decades, female labor market participation and labor market returns are
still lower than those of their male counterparts. Among the main
factors explaining this persistence of economic inequality is the
persistently gendered nature of occupational expectations, which results
in gender segregation of labor. In this paper, we describe how
gender-specific adolescents' occupational expectations change over time
(2006-2018) and how women's empowerment and cultural norms might
influence gender-specific occupational expectations. Against the
backdrop of the research on the gender-equality paradox and from a
comparative perspective, we focus on national and institutional
characteristics to investigate how individual and national factors
explain gendered occupational expectations. We answer our research
questions by applying a two-step multilevel model with fixed effects.
For this, we used PISA data and merged them with state-level information
from 26 European countries. We add to existing research by making three
contributions. First, we describe the changes in occupational
expectations over time within European countries by looking at the
gender composition of the desired occupation and distinguishing three
categories (gender-typical, gender-balanced, and gender-atypical).
Second, we investigate the relationship between national characteristics
and the evolution of gendered occupational expectations separately by
gender to reveal gender-specific mechanisms. Third, by using data from
two-time points, we explore which national-level changes lead to changes
in students' occupational expectations. Our first descriptive results
show that the patterns of how students' occupational expectations change
over time differ remarkably between countries. In 2018 in some
countries, students' occupational expectations became more segregated
while in others the number of students with gender-balanced or
gender-atypical expectations increased. Our fixed effects models show
that women's empowerment and self-expression value explained variance
over time. For example, women's empowerment measured via an increase in
women's employment and participation in parliament led to less
gender-typical occupational expectations among girls and boys.
Similarly, a rise in self-expression values led to less gender-typical
occupational expectations, again for both boys and girls. Remarkably,
our results do not verify the gender-equality paradox for occupational
expectations, as is the case in previous cross-sectional analyses.},

Title = {Economic crisis, women's changing economic roles, and their implications
for women's status in North Korea},
Journal = {PACIFIC REVIEW},
Year = {2011},
Volume = {24},
Number = {2},
Pages = {159-177},
Abstract = {Although many studies have analyzed the gendered impact of economic
crisis, few have examined the case of North Korea. This article will
explore how North Korea's economic crisis caused changes in women's
economic participation. It will also analyze the impact of these new
economic roles on the lives of women, and examine the broader
implications of these roles for the status of women in North Korea. The
North Korean economic crisis changed the pattern of women's economic
participation, pulling women out of the formal labor market and driving
them into the informal private economic sector. It also forced a number
of women to leave their homeland in order to provide support for their
own and their families' livelihoods. The new economic roles women have
assumed in the wake of the food crisis have affected women's lives in
many negative ways, resulting in an increase in their workloads, as well
as an increase in the amount of sexual violence and stress of family
breakdowns they experience. At the same time, however, these new roles
have given women stronger voices in family decision-making matters and
allowed them to develop, to some degree, a sense of self-consciousness
and awareness of their own rights. Nevertheless, the fact that women
have been engaged in new economic activities does not imply that they
also have a high likelihood of advancing their socioeconomic status. To
the contrary, women's defection from their homeland does not allow them
to voice their opinions in matters related to the existing gender
inequalities. Moreover, North Korean women are not considered capable of
forming a critical mass, as they lack economic, social, political, and
organizational resources to collectively voice their discontent.
Furthermore, the neo-Confucian tradition of male superiority that is
still firmly entrenched in the society is a major barrier that remains
to be overcome.},

Title = {Employment as a health determinant for working-age, dually-eligible
people with disabilities},
Journal = {DISABILITY AND HEALTH JOURNAL},
Year = {2013},
Volume = {6},
Number = {2},
Pages = {100-106},
Month = {APR},
Abstract = {Background: Individuals with disabilities are a health disparity
population with high rates of risk factors, lower overall health status,
and greater health care costs. The interacting effect of employment,
health and disability has not been reported in the research.
Objective: This study examined the relationship of employment to health
and quality of life among people with disabilities.
Methods: Self-reported survey data and secondary claims data analyses of
810 Kansans ages 18-64 with disabilities who were dually-eligible for
Medicare and Medicaid; 49\% were employed, with 94\% working less than
40 hours per week. Statistical analyses included ANOVA for differences
between the employed and unemployed groups' health status, risk scores,
and disease burdens; chi-square analyses for differences in prevalence
of health risk behaviors and differences in quality of life by
employment status; and logistic regression with health status measures
to determine factors associated with higher than average physical and
mental health status.
Results: Findings indicated participants with any level of paid
employment had significantly lower rates of smoking and better quality
of life; self-reported health status was significantly higher, while per
person per month Medicaid expenditures were less. Employment, even at
low levels, was associated with better health and health behaviors as
well as lower costs. Participants reported being discouraged from
working by medical professionals and federal disability policies.
Conclusions: Although cause-effect cannot be established from this
study, findings strongly support changes to provider practices and
federal disability policy to support employment at all levels for people
with disabilities. (C) 2013 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.},

Journal = {EPILEPSIA},
Year = {2009},
Volume = {50},
Number = {10},
Pages = {2175-2179},
Month = {OCT},
Abstract = {P>A rehabilitation approach has been adopted for many long-term
neurologic conditions, but not for epilepsy. The disabilities associated
with epilepsy are cognitive, psychological, and social, which are not as
readily identified by medical doctors as are physical disabilities. A
rehabilitation approach moves the emphasis from a medically driven
process to a focus on the personal, social, and physical context of
long-term illness. It is suggested that a missed opportunity for
education and support for self-management occurs after diagnosis. This
results in disadvantage to those whose educational level and knowledge
of epilepsy are low. People who do not achieve epilepsy control may then
experience higher levels of psychological distress, and a negative cycle
of loss of self-efficacy, poor epilepsy control, social disadvantage,
and disability. Rehabilitation services have benefited communities
surrounding centers of excellence. Not so in epilepsy. Despite centers
of excellence, areas with deprivation have higher than national average
levels of patients reporting a seizure in the prior year, and higher
emergency hospital admissions. Specialists working in partnership with
general practitioners (GPs) and practice nurses can do more to increase
participation and reduce distress for people with epilepsy. When
available, GPs and nurses with special interest in epilepsy promote
integrated services. Primary-secondary networks are likely to be more
effective in preventing downward drift. This requires evaluation.},

Title = {Subdividing the Digital Divide: Differences in Internet Access and Use
among Rural Residents with Medical Limitations},
Journal = {JOURNAL OF MEDICAL INTERNET RESEARCH},
Year = {2011},
Volume = {13},
Number = {1},
Month = {JAN-MAR},
Abstract = {Background: Access to health care is often contingent upon an
individual's ability to travel for services. Certain groups, such as
those with physical limitations and rural residents, have more travel
barriers than other groups, reducing their access to services. The use
of the Internet may be a way for these groups to seek care or
information to support their health care needs.
Objective: The purpose of this study was to examine Internet use among
those whose are, for medical reasons, limited in their ability to
travel. We also examined disparities in Internet use by race/ethnicity
and rural residence, particularly among persons with medical conditions.
Methods: We used data from the 2001 National Household Travel Survey
(NHTS), a nationally representative sample of US households, to examine
Internet use among individuals with medical conditions, rural residents,
and minority populations. Internet use was defined as any use within the
past 6 months; among users, frequency of use and location of use were
explored. Control variables included sociodemographics, family life
cycle, employment status, region, and job density in the community. All
analyses were weighted to reflect the complex NHTS sampling frame.
Results: Individuals with medical conditions were far less likely to
report Internet use than those without medical conditions (32.6\% vs
70.3\%, P < .001). Similarly, rural residents were less likely to report
Internet access and use than urban residents (59.7\% vs 69.4\%, P <
.001). Nationally, 72.8\% of white respondents, versus 65.7\% of persons
of ``other{''} race, 51.5\% of African Americans, and 38.0\% of
Hispanics reported accessing the Internet (P < .001). In adjusted
analyses, persons with medical conditions and minority populations were
less likely to report Internet use. Rural-urban differences were no
longer significant with demographic and ecological characteristics held
constant.
Conclusions: This analysis confirmed previous findings of a digital
divide between urban and rural residents. Internet use and frequency was
also lower among those reporting a medical condition than among those
without a condition. After we controlled for many factors, however,
African Americans and Hispanics were still less likely to use the
Internet, and to use it less often, than whites. Policy makers should
look for ways to improve the access to, and use of, the Internet among
these populations.},

Title = {Firearm homicide mortality is influenced by structural racism in US
metropolitan areas},

Month = {JUL},
Abstract = {INTRODUCTION: Metropolitan cities in the United States suffer fromhigher
rates of gun violence. However, the specific structural factors
associated with increased gun violence are poorly defined. We
hypothesized that firearm homicide in metropolitan cities would be
impacted by Black-White segregation index.
METHODS: This cross-sectional analysis evaluated 51 US metropolitan
statistical areas (MSAs) using data from 2013 to 2017. Several measures
of structural racism were examined, including the Brooking Institute's
Black-White segregation index. Demographic data were derived from the US
Census Bureau, US Department of Education, and US Department of Labor.
Crime data and firearm homicide mortality rates were obtained from the
Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Centers for Disease Control.
Spearman. and linear regression were performed.
RESULTS: Firearm mortality was associated with multiple measures of
structural racism and racial disparity, including White-Black
segregation index, unemployment rate, poverty rate, single parent
household, percent Black population, and crime rates. In regression
analysis, percentage Black population exhibited the strongest
association with firearm homicide mortality (beta = 0.42, p < 0.001).
Black-White segregation index (beta = 0.41, p = 0.001) and percent
children living in single-parent households (beta = 0.41, p = 0.002)
were also associated with higher firearm homicide mortality. Firearm
legislation scores were associated with lower firearm homicide mortality
(beta = -0.20 p = 0.02). High school and college graduation rates were
not associated with firearm homicide mortality and were not included in
the final model.
CONCLUSION: Firearm homicide disproportionately impacts communities of
color and is associated with measures of structural racism, such as
White-Black segregation index. Public health interventions targeting gun
violence must address these systemic inequities. Furthermore, given the
association between firearm mortality and single-parent households,
intervention programs for at-risk youth may be particularly effective.

Abstract = {Labour markets around the world are experiencing extraordinary
disruption during the COVID-19 pandemic. The gap in the employment rate

vulnerabilities. This scenario is troubling from both a human rights and
an economic perspective. In this paper, we examine the interface of two
policy instruments intended to improve the prospects of people with
disability finding and keeping employment in Australia - Disability
Employment Services and the National Disability Insurance Scheme - in
the lead up to and in the early stages of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Findings from three studies conducted between 2018 and 2020 reveal these
instruments are not mutually reinforcing. With a 10-year National
Disability Employment Strategy (NDES) in development under federal
government oversight, we argue that more concerted and targeted effort
from these services and broader public policies and programs is needed
to ensure Australians with disability are not sidelined in the labour
market in the wake of the pandemic.},

Abstract = {Using an unanticipated policy reform that shifted 4 months the cutoff
date for school eligibility in the state of Tlaxcala, Mexico, we
estimate the effect of relative age on test scores in grades 3-9.
Different identification strategies produce similar results: 1 year of
additional age confers an advantage of roughly 03 standard deviations.
By contrasting Tlaxcala with a neighboring state that did not change the
cutoff concurrently, we decompose the effect of relative age into a
positive effect of age at test, and a negative effect of the position in
the distribution of age. Older classmates have a positive spillover,
whereas younger classmates have a negative spillover. If tested at the
exact same age, younger students would outperform their older
classmates. We complement the analysis with estimates of relative-age
effects in six labor and marriage market outcomes in a sample of Mexican
adults. Significant effects are found in the six outcomes. Lastly, we
lay out a theoretical model to explain differences in relative-age
effects in wages across countries, highlighting the role played by
selectivity of the mechanisms used to allocate educational opportunities
and the wage premium to those educational opportunities in the labor
market. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.},

Abstract = {Estimates suggest that between 41\% and 94\% of breast cancer survivors

they choose other-care over self-care. This study explored the self-care
experiences of women with breast cancer within the contexts of complex

(N = 14) were enrolled in a behavioral-educational intervention aimed at
lymphedema risk-reduction. This feminist family theory-informed
secondary analysis of qualitative data focused on women's familial roles
and the balance or lack of balance between self-sacrifice and self-care.
Findings included participants' struggles with time management and
prioritizing self-care over care of others as well as making a
commitment to self-care. Findings have implications for patient and
family-level education and research with regard to gender role-based
barriers to self-care and self-care within complex social contexts.},

Journal = {INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF EDUCATIONAL DEVELOPMENT},

Volume = {99},
Month = {MAY},
Abstract = {This paper analyzes the relationship between the indicators of higher
education quality and the salaries of university graduates in Russia.
Based on the data from the longitudinal study `Trajectories in Education
and Careers', it is shown that graduates of highly selective
universities, higher education institutions which partic-ipate in the
excellence initiatives, or those awarded a special status (for example,
participants of the `5-100 ` project and National Research Universities)
receive a higher wage premium for education compared to other graduates.
This conclusion is consistent with the human capital theory and
signaling theory. Differences in wages depending on the field of study
were also found. Graduate salaries have a gender gap and are also
positively associated with family income and school background. Thus,
inequality in the labor market has roots both in the variation of the
quality of higher education, and before university entry - in family and
high school. The findings can substantiate the policy aimed at smoothing
educational inequality and differences in wages.},

consequences. Disproportionate exposure to ACEs and lack of appropriate
responses stemming from systemic racism contributes to racial
inequities. Culturally responsive practices and policies focused on
early childhood are critical to prevent toxic stress and subsequent
health inequities. This paper describes a collaboration among
researchers, practitioners, and parents of color with lived experiences
of ACEs entitled: Two Generations Thrive, which aims to prevent the
intergenerational transmission of ACEs through improving practices and
policies within the health care, education, and child welfare systems.
Method: Community-based Participatory Research (CBPR) and cultural
humility provided a framework and key principles for our collaboration,
with an emphasis on critical reflection, mitigating power imbalances,
and institutional accountability. Qualitative and quantitative methods
were used to evaluate outcomes. We describe our process of building an
infrastructure for bidirectional collaboration and key lessons learned
to offer a roadmap for researchers, clinicians, and advocates who seek
to partner in preventing ACEs and subsequent health inequities. Results:
Key lessons learned include: the importance of building and maintaining
trust, consistently working to mitigate power imbalances, and the power
of bidirectional collaboration to maximize the benefit of research and
action for communities traditionally marginalized in research and
practice. Conclusions: Cultural humility and CBPR provide a strong
foundation to promote bidirectional collaboration among researchers,
practitioners, and parents with lived experience of ACEs.
Clinical Impact Statement Repeated exposure to adversity can cause toxic
stress, which is damaging to physical and mental health.
Disproportionate exposure to ACEs and lack of appropriate responses
stemming from systemic racism contribute to racial inequities associated
with toxic stress including disproportionate intergenerational
transmission of ACEs among families of color. This article describes a
bidirectional partnership among researchers, practitioners, and parents
initially focused on intervention research that grew to focus on
building capacity across systems to reduce racial inequities associated
with toxic stress.},

Abstract = {Community-based migrant organizations play a vital role in the provision
of welfare services to temporary migrant workers, international
students, and refugees whose access to government support services are
limited. Through a co-design based inquiry, we explored the potential to
utilize mainstream digital platforms to support the welfare agenda of an
Australia-based Filipino migrant organization. We discuss the advantages
and disadvantages of implementing such technology-mediated workflows
within the community-based organization and the essential practices that
they may undermine. Drawing on this case study, we present a provisional
set of reflections for design practitioners working in the space of
migrant communities and other marginalized community groups. These
include the importance of designing for the communitys long-term and
holistic development, leveraging volunteers digital literacy, and a call
for more malleable platforms that allow community groups to reflect
their core values and needs directly onto the platform configurations.},

Title = {Sustainable efficiency drivers in Eurasian airports: Fuzzy NDEA approach
based on Shannon's entropy},
Journal = {JOURNAL OF AIR TRANSPORT MANAGEMENT},
Year = {2021},
Volume = {92},
Month = {MAY},
Abstract = {This research explores the physical infrastructure and flight
consolidation efficiency drivers of Eurasian airports regarding their
infrastructure and movement productivity levels. A novel Fuzzy
Double-Frontier Network DEA (FDFNDEA) model is proposed to investigate
the relationship between desirable (freight and passenger turnovers) and
undesirable (pollutant emission levels due to aircraft movements)
outputs against the respective infrastructure usage, fuel consumed, and
movements performed at each of the 23 Eurasian airports from 2000 to
2018. This balance between desirable and undesirable outputs emerges
spatially and temporally due to the evolution of the airport system?s
productive resources at each one of the Eurasian countries over the
period observed. Shannon?s entropy is used as the cornerstone to
quantify the input and output vagueness of this evolution in Triangular
Fuzzy Numbers (TFN), thus allowing the accurate building of alternative
optimistic and pessimistic double-frontier efficiency. Differently from
previous research, Shannon?s entropy is the key for measuring input and
output vagueness levels in light of the maximal entropy principle. This
principle states that the distribution that best represents the current
state of knowledge is the one with largest entropy. Maximal entropy
yields bias-free decision-making in the sense that the input/output
distributional profiles for Eurasian airports contain the maximal
possible heterogeneity, working as a robust or best/worst-case scenario
against eventual unconsidered assumptions. Hence, optimistic and
pessimistic Malmquist Productivity Indexes (MPI) for overall and each
stage productivity results are subsequently regressed against contextual
variables related to airport characteristics and regional
socio-demographic and economic indicators of each Eurasian country using
bootstrapped Cauchy regressions. The findings revealed the spatial
heterogeneity of productivity factors and airport performance across
Eurasia. Results also demonstrated the negative impact of income
inequality and the positive impact of private participation on
technological progression in the Eurasian airport industry.},

Abstract = {Persons with disabilities face substantial barriers that impede their
integration and participation in social and economic activities.
Households with disabled members may be vulnerable to poverty due to the
extra cost of living with a disability. However, there exists a
knowledge gap in the magnitude of the extra cost of disabilities in sub
Saharan Africa. Using data from a nationally representative household
survey, this paper estimates the extra cost of disabilities in Ghana.
The paper further examines the welfare effects of households with
persons with disabilities. Based on the standard of living approach, we
estimate the extra cost to households with a person with disability to
be 26\% of annual household consumption expenditures. Adjusting for the
extra cost of poverty, the incidence of poverty increases from 38.5 to
52.9\% amongst households with a disabled member. Our findings suggest
the need to improve the efficiency of support programs to persons with
disabilities to mitigate the extra costs of disabilities and reduce
their vulnerability to poverty. In addition, enhancing access to
economic opportunities and social services for persons with disabilities
will be imperative to improve their quality of life and dignity.},

Abstract = {This article examines the ways in which unionization impacted upon race
relations in Chicago's meatpacking industry. It focuses upon a period
when a dynamic working-class movement sought to overcome barriers
imposed by a hierarchical job structure and reinforced by ethnic and
racial divisions. The movement drew its strength from several sources.
The support of the Chicago Federation of Labor threw the resources of a
powerful local movement behind the campaign and encouraged the emergence
of new, inclusive, forms of organization. The existence of shop-floor
organizations further augmented the movement's power. Finally, the
intervention of the government, in the form of binding arbitration, led
to dramatic improvements in wages and conditions which helped the
movement consolidate its position. Although these gains were undone and
the movement destroyed, the union campaign transformed racial and class
experiences in the stockyards.},

Title = {Making the case for citizenship-oriented mental healthcare for youth in
Canada},
Journal = {JOURNAL OF PUBLIC MENTAL HEALTH},
Year = {2023},
Volume = {22},
Number = {1},
Pages = {3-11},
Month = {MAR 27},
Abstract = {Purpose - Varying stakeholders have highlighted how recovery-oriented
mental health services such as youth mental health services have
traditionally focused on supporting individual resources to promote
recovery (e.g., agency) to the exclusion of addressing structural issues
that influence recovery (e.g. poverty). One response to this criticism
has been work helping people with mental health problems recover a sense
of citizenship and sense of belonging in their communities. Work on
citizenship has yet to influence youth mental healthcare in Canada's
provinces and territories. This paper aims to highlight ways that youth
mental healthcare can better help youth recover a sense of
citizenship.Design/methodology/approach - The arguments described in
this paper were established through discussion and consensus among
authors based on clinical experience in youth mental health and an
understanding of Canada's healthcare policy landscape, including current
best practices as well as guidelines for recovery-oriented care by the
Mental Health Commission of Canada.Findings - Here, this study proposes
several recommendations that can help young with mental health problems
recover their sense of citizenship at the social, systems and service
levels. These include addressing the social determinants of health;
developing a citizenship-based system of care; addressing
identity-related disparities; employing youth community health workers
within services; adapting and delivering citizenship-based
interventions; and connecting youth in care to civic-oriented
organizations.Originality/value - This paper provides the first
discussion of how the concept of citizenship can be applied to youth
mental health in Canada in multiple ways. The authors hope that this
work provides momentum for adopting policies and practices that can help
youth in Canada recover a sense of citizenship following a mental health
crisis.},

Title = {Work histories of older adults in China: Social heterogeneity and the
pace of de-standardisation},
Journal = {ADVANCES IN LIFE COURSE RESEARCH},
Year = {2021},
Volume = {48},
Month = {JUN},
Abstract = {Inequalities in the labour market are recognised as presenting a major
impediment to extending the working lives of older adults in China as
part of any proposed reforms of the public pension system against the
background of population ageing. While a growing body of literature has
paid attention to understanding this issue within the wider
international context, there remains a dearth of research on work
histories in China. This research which is crucial for the understanding
of inequalities in later life. This paper provides a unique evidence on
the work experiences over the life course of 7281 Chinese individuals
aged 60 and over (born between 1930-1954), using retrospective life
history data from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study.
With the application of sequence analysis and cluster analysis, results
reveal a picture of significant social heterogeneity within work
trajectories between urban and rural areas and between men and women.
Such differences are largely shaped by the wider economic and
institutional context, as well as by key personal characteristics such
as educational attainment. More importantly, cohort comparisons
highlight how different groups of current Chinese older alduts have been
affected by changes in the labour market and the public pension system
over the past sixty years. Whilst it is to be expected that younger
cohorts amongst today's older population will have experienced some
destandardisation of work trajectories following the opening up of the
economy since the 1980s, the heterogeneity in work trajectories across
different social groups within and between cohorts is notable. These
findings emphasise the importance of ensuring policy design that
delivers equitable pension entitlements and supports flexible working
patterns in order to reduce inequalities in the labour market between
rural and urban residents and between men and women.},

married women in Kenya between 2003 and 2014: an analysis of Kenya
demographic health surveys},
Journal = {BMC PUBLIC HEALTH},
Year = {2023},
Volume = {23},

Month = {APR 20},
Abstract = {BackgroundGlobally, fertility has declined in the last three decades. In
sub-Saharan Africa Including Kenya, this decline started more recent and
at a slower pace compared to other regions. Despite a significant
fertility decline in Kenya, there are disparities in intra- and
interregional fertility. Reduction in lifetime fertility has health
benefits for both the mother and child, thus it is important to improve
women and children health outcomes associated with high fertility. The
study, therefore evaluated the factors associate with change in lifetime
fertility among married women of reproductive age in Kenya between 2003
and 2014.MethodsThe study used the Kenya Demographic and Health Survey
(KDHS) datasets of 2003, 2008 and 2014. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) was
used to calculate the mean number of children ever born and to assess
the change in fertility across different factors. Poisson regression
model with robust standard errors was used to study the relationship
between number of children ever born (lifetime fertility) and
independent variables. A Poisson-based multivariate decomposition for
the nonlinear response model was performed to identify and quantify the
contribution of demographic, socioeconomic and reproductive correlates,
to the change in lifetime fertility between 2003 and 2014.ResultsThe
study included 3,917, 4,002, and 7,332 weighted samples of women of
reproductive age in 2003, 2008, and 2014, respectively. The mean number
of children born declined from 3.8 (95\% CI: 3.6-3.9) in 2003 to 3.5
(95\% CI: 3.4--3.7) in 2008 and 3.4 (95\% CI: 3.3-3.4) in 2014 (p =
0.001). The expected number of children reduced with the age at first
sexual intercourse, the age at first marriage across the survey years,
and household wealth index. Women who had lost one or more children in
the past were likely to have increased number of children. The changes
in the effects of women's characteristics between the surveys explained
96.4\% of the decline. The main contributors to the change in lifetime
fertility was the different in women level of education.ConclusionThe
lifetime fertility declined by one-tenth between 2003 and 2014; majorly
as a result of the effects of characteristics of women in terms of level
of education. These highlights a need to implement education policies
that promotes women education focuses on gender equality and women
empowerment. Continuous strengthening of the healthcare systems (access
to quality antenatal care, skilled delivery, and postpartum care) to
reduce child mortality is essential.},

National Park, Tanzania},
Journal = {FOREST POLICY AND ECONOMICS},
Year = {2012},
Volume = {21},
Pages = {20-31},
Month = {AUG},
Abstract = {This paper investigates livelihoods of communities around Mikumi,
Tanzania's fourth largest national park, and impacts of living close to
the park. People are very poor in the area, also beyond the areas close
to the park. The average income is around 0.45 USD per person per day.
People report food shortages in two out of the last five years. Even
``the least poor group{''} earns no more than an average of 2 USD/cap
and day.
Main incomes (80\%) are derived from agriculture and non-farm incomes.
There is a differential diversification pattern where poor people depend
more on selling their labour within agriculture, while the less poor
group depends more on non-farm activities. Environmental (forest and
natural resources) incomes are low, compared to what is typically found
in such rural areas, making up 6.3\% of total incomes. Living close to
the park incurs costs in the range of 2 to 20\% of total household
incomes, mainly through wildlife raiding crops and livestock; the scale
depending on village location.
The study documents that attempts to reduce tensions between local
people and the park through outreach activities yield negligible results
compared to the costs people incur, and do little to reduce the
conflict-ridden park-people relations.
Although the park may not necessarily be a ``poverty trap{''}, it must
be seen as yet another and substantial constraint for people securing
their livelihoods. Increasing land scarcity, population densities,
income inequalities all imply mounting pressures that aggravate resource
use conflicts. Furthermore, the present situation with external
political interference in selection and implementation of outreach
activities is not conducive to progress. Given that 24\% of Tanzania
consists of wildlife protected areas, much more focused, rights-based
and location specific approaches should be developed to reduce losses,
and to secure local people's rights to income from the parks and due
compensation for accrued costs. People should have formal rights to
access park resources that can be subjected to controlled, sustainable
harvesting. The present park management culture in terms of attitudes,
values and norms needs to change through training in how to work with
local people. Such interventions would help reduce conflict levels. (C)

Title = {Health inequalities between employed and unemployed in northern Sweden:
a decomposition analysis of social determinants for mental health},
Journal = {INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL FOR EQUITY IN HEALTH},
Year = {2018},
Volume = {17},
Month = {MAY 16},
Abstract = {Background: Even though population health is strongly influenced by
employment and working conditions, public health research has to a
lesser extent explored the social determinants of health inequalities
between people in different positions on the labour market, and whether
these social determinants vary across the life course. This study
analyses mental health inequalities between unemployed and employed in
three age groups (youth, adulthood and mid-life), and identifies the
extent to which social determinants explain the mental health gap
between employed and unemployed in northern Sweden.
Methods: The Health on Equal Terms survey of 2014 was used, with
self-reported employment (unemployed or employed) as exposure and the
General Health Questionnaire (GHQ-12) as mental health outcome. The
social determinants of health inequalities were grouped into four
dimensions: socioeconomic status, economic resources, social network and
trust in institutional systems. The non-linear Oaxaca decomposition
analysis was applied, stratified by gender and age groups.
Results: Mental health inequality was found in all age groups among
women and men (difference in GHQ varying between 0.12 and 0.20). The
decomposition analysis showed that the social determinants included in
the model accounted for 43-51\% of the inequalities among youths,
42-98\% of the inequalities among adults and 60-65\% among middle-aged.
The main contributing factors were shown to vary between age groups:
cash margin (among youths and middle-aged men), financial strain (among
adults and middle-aged women), income (among men in adulthood), along
with trust in others (all age groups), practical support (young women)
and social support (middle-aged men); stressing how the social
determinants of health inequalities vary across the life course.
Conclusions: The health gap between employed and unemployed was
explained by the difference in access to economic and social resources,
and to a smaller extent in the trust in the institutional systems.
Findings from this study corroborate that much of the mental health
inequality in the Swedish labour market is socially and politically
produced and potentially avoidable. Greater attention from researchers,
policy makers on unemployment and public health should be devoted to the
social and economic deprivation of unemployment from a life course
perspective to prevent mental health inequality.},

Abstract = {Objective: The objective of the article is to determine links of gender
discrimination with compensation and benefits practices, the main
features of assurance of equal rights and their impact on employees'
motives that can shift economic results of the enterprises.
Research Design \& Methods: For macro level analysis, we use graph and
mapping method. Features of gender discrimination and its links with
compensation and benefits are revealed in sociological review.
Findings: Ensuring gender equality is a difficult task for even the most
developed countries of the world, as none of them has achieved full
equality of sex, including in respect of labour rights. As our study
shows, significant progress has been made in this area in Ukraine, as in
general, gender gap and the economic equality of women keep within the
EU-specific range of values. Gender discrimination is accompanied by
age: 57.1\% out of the 71.4\% of discriminated women are aged under 35;
the higher the age and gender discrimination, the smaller the wage gap.
In enterprises with gender discrimination, the potential level of
turnover is 71\%, which is significantly higher comparing to enterprises
with equal rights.
Implications \& Recommendations: The obtained results should be used by
trade unions and public policy makers in socio-labour agreements to
reduce inequality in compensation and benefits practices.
Contribution \& Value Added: We suggest the developed approach to define
gender discrimination in order to determine its features in compensation
and benefits policy, but also to influence business results via
assurance of equal rights of employees.},

Title = {Predictors of mental health and substance use disorder treatment use
over 3 years among rural adults using stimulants},
Journal = {SUBSTANCE ABUSE},
Year = {2019},
Volume = {40},
Number = {3, SI},
Pages = {363-370},
Month = {JUL 3},
Abstract = {Background: Persons using substances, living in rural communities, tend
to underutilize mental health (MH) and substance use disorder (SUD)
treatment compared with their urban peers. However, no studies have
examined longitudinal predictors of MH and SUD treatment use among rural
persons using stimulants. Methods: Data were collected through
interviews conducted between 2002 and 2008 from a natural history study
of 710 adults using stimulants and living in rural counties of Arkansas,
Kentucky, and Ohio. Each study site recruited participants using
respondent-driven sampling (RDS). Participants were adults, not in drug
treatment, and reporting past-30-day use of methamphetamine, crack
cocaine, or powder cocaine. Study participants completed face-to-face
baseline assessments and follow-up interviews using computer-assisted
personal interviews. Follow-up interviews were conducted at 6-month
intervals for 3 years. Results: Our results show that being male,
nonwhite, and having a prior lifetime history of MH or SUD treatment use
were associated with lower odds of using MH and SUD treatment over time;
having medical insurance and living in a state with potentially greater
availability of MH and SUD treatment were associated with higher odds of
using MH and SUD treatment over the 3-year period. Further, reporting
greater legal problems and alcohol severity were associated with greater
odds of using MH and SUD care, whereas greater employment problems was
associated with higher odds of SUD but not MH treatment use.
Conclusions: Findings from this study could be used to inform clinical
and public health strategies for improving linkage to MH and SUD care in
this population. Our findings also highlight the importance of having
medical insurance as a potential facilitator to utilizing SUD care in
this population and support the need for health care policies that
increase the ability of rural adults who use stimulants to pay for such
services.},

Abstract = {Intensive unpaid caring is associated with greater likelihood of not
being employed, but impacts for mental health carers specifically remain
unknown. This study aimed to: (a) examine the association between caring
intensity and not being employed for primary mental health carers, (b)
ascertain whether this relationship differs from that for other
disability carers, (c) enumerate Australian primary mental health carers
with a possible need for employment support and (d) describe these
carers' unmet support needs and barriers to employment. Co-resident,
working age primary mental health (n = 137) and other disability carers
(n = 821) were identified in the Survey of Disability, Ageing and Carers
(collected July-December 2015). Multiple logistic regression analyses
examined associations between levels of caring intensity (1-9, 10-19,
20-39, 40+ hr/week) and not being employed. A `possible need for
employment support' indicator was derived from information about current
employment status, caring hours, past impact of caring on employment and
desire for more work or workplace accommodations. After controlling for
demographic and caring role factors, mental health carers providing 40+
hr of care weekly had greater odds of not being employed compared to
carers providing <10 hr (AOR 13.38, 95\% CI: 2.17-82.39). For other
disability carers, the odds of not being employed were also higher among
those providing 20-39 hr of care (AOR 3.21, 95\% CI: 2.18-4.73). An
estimated 54.1\% (95\% CI: 43.1-64.8) of carers had a possible need for
employment support, with the proportion increasing as level of caring
intensity increased. Of carers who were not employed, 42.2\% (95\% CI:
30.3-55.0) reported a desire to work, and the main reported barrier was
no alternative care arrangements or disruption to the person supported.
Findings suggest that improving employment participation for mental
health carers requires a greater balance between unpaid care and access
to formal services for people with mental illness.},

inequality},
Journal = {STRUCTURAL CHANGE AND ECONOMIC DYNAMICS},
Year = {2022},
Volume = {60},
Pages = {433-446},
Month = {MAR},
Abstract = {We study a two-class model of growth and the distribution of income and
wealth at the intersection of contemporary work in classical political
economy and post-Keynesian economics. The key insight is that aggregate
demand is an externality for individual firms: this generates a
strategic complementarity in production and results in equilibrium
underutilization of the economy's productive capacity, as well as
hysteresis in real output. Underutilization also affects the functional
distribution of income and the dis-tribution of wealth: both the wage
share and the workers' wealth share would be higher at full capacity.
Consequently, fiscal allocation policy that achieves full utilization
also attains a higher labor share and a more equitable distribution of
wealth; while demand shocks have permanent level effects. Extensions
look at hysteresis in the employment rate and growth. These findings are
useful as an organizing frame-work for thinking through the lackluster
economic record of the so-called Neoliberal era, the sluggish recovery
of most advanced economies following the Great Recession, and the
importance of fiscal policy in countering large shocks such as the
Covid-19 pandemic.(c) 2022 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.},

Volume = {33},
Number = {4, S},

Month = {OCT},
Abstract = {Background: Bridging the Gap (BTG) is a collaborative research
initiative supported by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation. Ten years
ago, BTG was created to assess the impact of policies, programs, and
other environmental influences on adolescent alcohol, tobacco, and
illicit drug use and related outcomes. This multidisciplinary, multisite
initiative examines these factors at multiple levels of social
organization, including schools, communities, and states. More recently,
the significant increases in obesity among children, adolescents, and
adults led BTG to expand its efforts to include research on the role of
policies, programs, and other factors on adolescent obesity and the
physical inactivity and dietary habits that contribute to this growing
problem. Eleven papers resulting from BTG's obesity-related research are
contained in this supplement, along with two papers describing the
National Cancer Institute-supported efforts to track relevant state
policies.
Methods: Bridging the Gap involves a variety of data-collection efforts
built largely around the Monitoring the Future (MTF) surveys of 8th-,
10th-, and 12th-grade students. These include: surveys of administrators
in the MTF schools that gather extensive information on the school food
environment, physical education in schools, and other relevant
information; collection of contextual information from the communities
in which the MTF schools are located; tracking of relevant state
policies; and gathering of a wide variety of data from archival and
commercial databases. These databases are analyzed individually and in
various combinations.
Discussion: Bridging the Gap's extensive research has shown the
importance of a range of school, community, state, and other influences
in affecting adolescent substance use and related outcomes. BTG's early
research on adolescent diet, physical activity, and obesity much of
which is contained in this supplement-similarly demonstrates the role of
environmental factors in influencing these outcomes and in explaining
observed racial/ethnic and socioeconomic-related disparities in them.
Conclusions: The growing recognition of the public health and economic
consequences of childhood, adolescent, and adult obesity has led to a
variety of policies, programs, and other interventions to stimulate
healthy eating and physical activity, often despite the lack of evidence
on their impact. BTG and others are working to build the evidence base
for effective interventions to address this significant problem, but
much remains to be learned.},

Abstract = {Purpose of reviewThere is a growing population of adolescent and young
adult (AYA, ages 15-39 years) cancer patients and survivors, and the
field of AYA oncology is rapidly evolving. Despite an increased focus on
survival and quality of life for AYAs, gaps in knowledge remain. The
current review focuses on what is known across several domains unique to
AYA cancer care as well as areas of improvement and future directions in
research and intervention.Recent findingsDue to the developmental stages
included in the AYA age range, a cancer diagnosis and treatment can
affect relationships, education and employment, finances, and long-term
health differently than diagnoses in younger or older populations.
Recent studies that have focused on these unique aspects of AYA cancer
care, including health-related quality of life (HRQoL), fertility,
financial toxicity, barriers to clinical trial enrollment, genetic
predisposition, and survivorship care are included in the current
review.Although studies have described many of the challenges faced by
AYAs across the cancer continuum from diagnosis to survivorship, more
work is needed, particularly in systematically measuring HRQoL,
eliminating barriers to clinical trial enrollment, addressing financial
toxicity, and increasing access to fertility preservation and
high-quality survivorship care.},

Abstract = {Background Some gender-based disparities in medicine may relate to
pregnancy and parenthood. An understanding of the challenges faced by
pregnant physicians and physician parents is needed to design policies
and interventions to reduce these disparities. Objective Our objective
was to characterize work-related barriers related to pregnancy and
parenthood described by physicians. Design We performed framework
analysis of qualitative data collected through individual,
semi-structured interviews between May and October 2018. Data related to
pregnancy or parenthood were organized chronologically to understand
barriers throughout the process of pregnancy, planning a parental leave,
taking a parental leave, returning from parental leave, and parenting as
a physician. Participants Physician faculty members of all genders,
including parents and non-parents, from a single department at a large
academic medical school in Canada were invited to participate in a
department-wide study broadly exploring gender equity. Approach Thematic
analysis guided by constructivism. Key Results Twenty-eight physicians
were interviewed (7.2\% of eligible physicians), including 22 women and
6 men, of which 18 were parents (15 mothers and 3 fathers). Common
barriers included a lack of systems-level guidelines for pregnancy and
parental leave, inconsistent workplace accommodations for pregnant
physicians, a lack of guidance and support for planning parental leaves,
and difficulties obtaining clinical coverage for parental leave. Without
systems-level guidance, participants had to individually navigate
challenges and resolve these difficulties, including negotiating with
their leadership for benefits. This led to stress, wasted time and
effort, and raised questions about fairness within the department.
Conclusions Physician parents face unique challenges navigating
institutional policies as well as planning and taking parental leave.
Systems-level interventions such as policies for pregnancy, parental
leave, and return to work are needed to address barriers experienced by
physician parents.},

Title = {Unequal power relations and partner violence against women in Tanzania:
a cross-sectional analysis},
Journal = {BMC WOMENS HEALTH},
Year = {2018},
Volume = {18},
Month = {NOV 15},
Abstract = {BackgroundResearch on factors associated with partner violence against
women is often framed within the context of gender inequality and power
imbalances between husbands and wivesinequalities that are considered
products of broader structural systems. Tanzania, a patriarchal society
where high levels of partner violence exists, has gone through rapid
economic and social changes over the past two decades. Increasing
numbers of women are seeking paid work, and men's ideals of manhood have
reshaped with evidence of extra marital relations and alcohol use.
Nationally representative population-based data documents 46.2\% of
ever-married women have experienced physical or sexual partner violence
in their lifetime; 29.6\% in the past year. In order to plan appropriate
interventions to end violence against women, factors consistently
associated with abuse need to be understood.MethodsThis study uses
couples data from the 2015 Tanzania Demographic and Health Survey to
examine correlates of past year partner violence against women.
Multivariate regression analysis was used to explore individual and
relational-level variablesincluding socio-demographic characteristics
and history of abuse among women, partner behavioural characteristics,
and indicators of gender and economic inequalityamong 1278 married and
cohabiting couples.ResultsAt the individual level, women's experiences
of non-partner violence (sexual abuse by a non-partner and witnessing
violence in childhood) was strongly associated with risk and highlights
that all forms of violence against women serve to keep them
subordinated. Partner behavioural characteristics (polygamy and
problematic alcohol use) were also associated with risk. Household
socio-economic status, however, was not significantly associated with
women's risk in the final multivariate model. At the relational-level,
men's age difference of 10 or more years; and any employment (compared
to none/unpaid) were associated with lower risk. When considering
attitudes tolerant towards wife abuse, the strongest association with
risk of violence was when both partners held tolerant
views.ConclusionThe findings support the assertions of violence being
associated with women's prior/additional experiences of abuse and with
men's harmful expressions of masculinity. In addition to interventions
that focus on transforming gender norms and attitudes (at the individual
and community levels), addressing economic, legal and political
structural barriers are also required.},

Title = {Group Home Staff Experiences WithWork and Health in the COVID-19
Pandemic in Massachusetts},
Journal = {JAMA HEALTH FORUM},
Year = {2023},
Volume = {4},
Number = {4},
Month = {APR},
Abstract = {IMPORTANCE Direct reports of the experiences of staff working in group
homes for people with serious mental illness (SMI) and/or intellectual
or developmental disabilities (ID/DD) are rarely reported. Hearing from
workers about their experiences in the COVID-19 pandemic may inform
future workforce and public policy.
OBJECTIVE To gather baseline data onworker experience with the perceived
effects of COVID-19 on health andwork in the pandemic prior to
initiating an intervention to mitigate the spread of COVID-19 and to
measure differences in worker experience by gender, race, ethnicity,
education, and resident population served (persons with SMI and/or
IDD/DD).
DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS This mixed-mode, cross-sectional
survey study was conducted using online then paper-based
self-administration from May to September 2021 at the end of the first
year of the pandemic. Staff working in 415 group homes that provided
care within 6 Massachusetts organizations serving adults aged 18 years
or older with SMI and/or ID/DD were surveyed. The eligible survey
population included a census of staff who were currently employed in
participating group homes during the study period. A total of 1468 staff
completed or partially completed surveys. The overall survey response
rate was 44\%(range by organization, 20\% to 52\%).
MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES Self-reported experiential outcomes were
measured in work, health, and vaccine completion. Bivariate and
multivariate analyses explore experiences by gender, race, ethnicity,
education, trust in experts and employers, and population served.
RESULTS The study population included 1468 group home staff (864
{[}58.9\%] women; 818 {[}55.7\%] non-Hispanic Black; 98 {[}6.7\%]
Hispanic or Latino). A total of 331 (22.5\%) group home staff members
reported very serious perceived effects on health; 438 (29.8\%) reported
very serious perceived effects on mental health; 471 (32.1\%) reported
very serious perceived effects on health of family and friends; and 414
reported very serious perceived effects (28.2\%) on access to health
services, with statistically significant differences observed by race
and ethnicity. Vaccine acceptance was higher among persons with higher
educational attainment and trust in scientific expertise and lower among
persons who self-reported as Black or Hispanic/Latino. A total of 392
(26.7\%) respondents reported needing support for health needs, and 290
(19.8\%) respondents reported needing support for loneliness or
isolation.
CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE In this survey study, approximately one-third
of group home workers reported serious personal health and access to
health care barriers during the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic in
Massachusetts. Addressing unmet health needs and access to health and
mental health services, including inequities and disparities by race,
ethnicity, and education, should benefit staff health and safety, as
well as that of the individuals with disabilities who rely on them for
support and care.},

Title = {Parental Education Better Helps White than Black Families Escape
Poverty: National Survey of Children's Health},
Journal = {ECONOMIES},
Year = {2018},
Volume = {6},
Number = {2},
Month = {JUN},
Abstract = {According to the Blacks' Diminished Return theory, the health effects of
high socioeconomic status (SES) are systemically smaller for Black
compared to White families. One hypothesis is that due to the existing
structural racism that encompasses residential segregation, low quality
of education, low paying jobs, discrimination in the labor market, and
extra costs of upward social mobility for minorities, Black families
face more challenges for leveraging their education to escape poverty.
Aims: Using a nationally representative sample of American families with
children, this study investigated racial variation in the effects of
highest education of parents on family's ability to scale poverty,
defined as the household's income-to-needs ratio. Methods: This
cross-sectional study used data from the National Survey of Children's
Health (NSCH) 2003-2004a nationally representative telephone survey that
included 86,537 parents of children 0-17 years old. The sample was
composed of White (n = 76,403, 88.29\%) and Black (n = 10,134, 11.71\%)
families. The independent variable was highest education of the parents.
The dependent variable was household poverty status (income-to-needs
ratio). Race was the focal moderator. Linear regression was used in the
pooled sample, as well as by race. Results: In the pooled sample, higher
education of parents in the household was associated with lower risk of
poverty. Race, however, interacted with parental education attainment on
household-income-to-needs ratio, indicating smaller effects for Black
compared to White families. Lower number of parents and higher number of
children in Black families did not explain such racial disparities.
Conclusions: The economic gain of parental education on helping family
escape poverty is smaller for Black than White families, and this is not
as a result of a lower parent-to-child ratio in Black households.
Policies should specifically address structural barriers in the lives of
all minorities to minimize the diminished return of SES resources across
racial minority groups. Policies should also enhance quality of
education and reduce the extra cost of upward social mobility for racial
minorities. As the likely causes are multilevel, the solutions should
also be multilevel. Without such interventions, it may be very difficult
if not impossible to eliminate the existing economic and health gap
between racial groups.},

Abstract = {Evidence suggests that Iraq and Afghanistan war veterans with
polytrauma/traumatic brain injury (TBI) history and neurobehavioral
symptoms may face difficulties returning to work, yet also encounter
barriers to accessing, navigating, and engaging in Department of
Veterans Affairs (VA) vocational rehabilitation programs. This study
utilized qualitative interviews and focus groups with veterans with
documented polytrauma/TBI history to explore veterans' perceived
barriers to employment and vocational rehabilitation program
participation, as well as to solicit thoughts regarding interest in an
evidence-based vocational rehabilitation program, the Individual
Placement and Support model of Supported Employment (IPS-SE). Veterans
identified physical, emotional, cognitive, and interpersonal barriers to
finding and maintaining work that they described as linked with their
polytrauma/TBI symptoms and sequelae. Communication and logistical
issues were described as the primary barriers to vocational
rehabilitation program access. while barriers to program utilization
included eligibility characteristics, fear of losing financial benefits.
and a military-cultural belief of self-sufficiency that made
help-seeking difficult. Finally, veterans endorsed key aspects of
IPS-SE, such as staff serving as translators, advocates, and navigators
of the job search and maintenance process. Policy recommendations are
addressed.},

Title = {``<i>The car is my extra legs</i>{''} - Experiences of outdoor mobility
amongst immigrants in Sweden with late effects of polio},
Journal = {PLOS ONE},
Year = {2019},
Volume = {14},
Number = {10},
Month = {OCT 31},
Abstract = {Background
The aim of the study was to describe the experience of outdoor mobility
among immigrants with late effects of polio living in Sweden. There is a
need to understand more about this young group of persons since they
often have problems with mobility and gait, but they may also face
participation restrictions due to issues associated with integration
into a new community and culture.
Method
A total of 14 young immigrants with late effects of polio participated
and were interviewed individually. The study used a qualitative method
to explore personal experiences and the interviews were analyzed through
an inductive approach, using qualitative content analysis.
Results
The analysis led to a major theme; self-image and acceptance, that
comprised a changeable process and experiences of cultural, social, and
gender-specific barriers, but also of environmental and personal factors
that impacted their outdoor mobility. By using a car, the participants
felt they could come across as normal which also increased their
self-esteem.
Conclusions
Independent mobility is a major enabler for ongoing employment and being
able to use a car increases the chances for integration into society for
young immigrants with late effects of polio. Public transport is not
considered to be adequate or efficient enough due to the participants'
mobility impairments, but driving can prevent involuntary isolation and
facilitate participation. A car can increase quality of life but may
also be a facilitator for work and reduce the demand for societal
support.},

utilization is because of little or no benefit from the state earned

Abstract = {Purpose: Increasing global migration, high obesity in developed
countries, and ethnic health inequalities are compelling reasons to
monitor immigrant obesity trends. Longitudinal studies of ethnicity,
length of residence, and adiposity in contexts outside of the United
States are lacking.
Methods: Nine waves (2006-2014) of the Household Income and Labour
Dynamics in Australia survey were analyzed (n = 20,934; 52\% women;
101,717 person-year observations) using random effects modeling to
assess average annual change in body mass index (BMI) by ethnic group. A
second analysis used an immigrant only cohort (n = 4583; 52\% women;
22,301 person-year observations) to examine BMI change by length of
residence.
Results: Over 9 years, mean BMI increased significantly in all ethnic
and Australian-born groups, and by the final wave, mean BMI exceeded 25
kg m(-2) for all groups. Trajectories of change did not vary between
groups, with the exception of slower BMI increases for North-West
European men compared with Australian born. Immigrants residing in
Australia for 10-19 years had significantly faster annual increases in
BMI compared with long-term immigrants (>= 30 years).
Conclusions: Immigrants to Australia, regardless of ethnicity, are at
risk of obesity over time. Obesity prevention policy should prioritize
immigrants in the early-mid settlement period. (C) 2018 Elsevier Inc.

(RNFS) employment in India: A theoretical modelling and an empirical
analysis},
Journal = {WORLD DEVELOPMENT},
Year = {2021},
Volume = {141},
Month = {MAY},
Abstract = {Amidst the laggardness of the farm sector, a major shift away from the
farm sector to the rural non-farm sector (RNFS) has been observed in
India, in the recent decades. However, the diversification into the
RNFS, especially for the small and the marginal farmers, may be
restricted due to the presence of various entry barriers like, lack of
education in general and technical education in particular, credit
constraint and a lower endowment of social capital. In this context, the
study develops a simple theoretical model to incorporate the labour
allocation decisions of the rural farm households, focussing on the
potential entry barriers in the RNFS. The theoretically determined entry
barriers along with other covariates are then used to empirically
estimate the intensity of RNFS participation. We employ household level
panel data on Indian states belonging to Semi-arid tropics (SAT) and
Eastern regions, for the years 2010-14. A fractional response model is
used to empirically analyse the determinants underlying RNFS
diversification. The empirical results of the study confirm the presence
of entry barriers in the form of lack of education and technical
education, and access to credit and social capital. Other variables that
are found to have a significant impact on diversification are land
asset, family size, gender of the household head, age of the household
head and farm income. Since, access to education, skill, credit and
social capital are vital factors determining RNFS diversification,
specific policies are required to be implemented for increasing access
to these assets so as to increase RNFS employment in India. (C) 2020

Title = {Community service provider perceptions of implementing older adult fall
prevention in Ontario, Canada: a qualitative study},
Journal = {BMC GERIATRICS},
Year = {2018},
Volume = {18},
Month = {FEB 1},
Abstract = {Background: Despite evidence for effective fall prevention
interventions, measurable reductions in older adult (>= 65 years) fall
rates remain unrealized. This study aimed to describe the perceived
barriers to and effective strategies for the implementation of
evidence-based fall prevention practices within and across diverse
community organizations. This study is unique in that it included
community service providers who are not generally thought to provide
fall prevention services to older adults, such as retail business,
community support, volunteer services, community foundations, recreation
centres, and various emergency services.
Methods: Interviews and focus groups were conducted with a purposive
sampling of providers (n = 84) in varied roles within diverse
community-based organizations across disparate geographical settings.
Results: Community service providers experience significant multi-level
barriers to fall prevention within and across organizations and
settings. The overall challenge of serving dispersed populations in
adverse environmental conditions was heightened in northern rural areas.
Barriers across the system, within organizations and among providers
themselves emerged along themes of Limited Coordination of
Communication, Restrictive Organizational Mandates and Policies,
Insufficient Resources, and Beliefs about Aging and Falls. Participants
perceived that Educating Providers, Working Together, and Changing
Policies and Legislation were strategies that have worked or would work
well in implementing fall prevention. An unintentional observation was
made that several participants in this extremely varied sample
identified expanded roles in fall prevention for themselves during the
interview process.
Conclusions: Community service providers experience disabling contexts
for implementing fall prevention on many levels: their specific
geography, their service systems, their organizations and themselves. A
systemic lack of fit between the older adult and fall prevention
services limits access, making fall prevention inaccessible,
unaccommodating, unavailable, unaffordable, and unacceptable. Educating
Providers, Working Together, and Changing Policies and Legislation
offers promise to create more enabling contexts for community
stakeholders, including those who do not initially see their work as
preventing falls.},

Abstract = {People with disabilities in Australia face significant employment
barriers. Research and policy initiatives over the past fifteen years
have consistently emphasised the benefits of vocational education and
training generally, and apprenticeship and traineeships specifically, as
leading to positive vocational pathways and employment outcomes for
people with disabilities. However, there is a dearth of evidence of
graduate outcomes for apprentices and trainees with disabilities. This
paper presents the employment outcomes including hours of work and
salaries for a cohort of apprenticeship and traineeship graduates with
and without disabilities across a three-year longitudinal Australian
study. Overall, there are positive employment outcomes for the research
participants although graduates without a disability achieved better
outcomes than graduates with disabilities and participants in receipt of
the disability support pension had significantly lower wages than other
participants with disabilities. There are indications that the gap in
outcomes between graduates with and without disabilities has reduced
over time, although generalisability of the findings may be limited by
the observational study design. Nevertheless, the study has confirmed
positive employment and related outcomes for apprenticeship and
traineeship graduates with disabilities, which were sustained, or
arguably improved, over the three-year period covered by the study.},

Abstract = {BackgroundAlmost nowhere in the world do women participate as much as
men in the labor force. Despite differences in countries' economic,
social and cultural contexts, gender norms-unwritten rules of acceptable
actions for men and women-have been found to affect women's labor
participation across contexts. Gender norms include those regulating who
takes care of children, who is expected to earn more, and in which
sectors men and women should work. Importantly, norms affect access to
labor markets at times of scarcity: when there's only work for one,
gender norms can dictate whether a woman or man gets the job. Advocates
of equal labor force participation point to evidence that employment can
contribute to people's health and well-being; yet the evidence is mixed
and contradictory, and mostly comes from high-income countries. In
restrictive normative contexts in which women are assigned the role of
family caretaker, full time employment (FTE) might be particularly
burdensome. At the same time, the literature lacks a cross-country
analysis of how gender norms affect women's FTE and their health when
employed full time, despite qualitative research providing clear
evidence of the influence of gender norms on labor participation. AimsIn
this paper we examine: (1) how gender norms affect women's access to FTE
across 97 countries; (2) associations between FTE and women's
self-reported health self-rated (SRH) across different normative
contexts (i.e., countries where it is common vs. uncommon for women to
stay home); and (3) how women's FTE and gender norms changed over time
in four countries. DataWe used time-series data from the World Values
Survey and European Values Survey conducted in over 100 countries
between 1981 and 2014. Both surveys attempt to capture norms, beliefs
and values in addition to sociodemographic information among a
nationally representative adult population in each country. The sample
for the cross-sectional analyses (aims 1 and 2) included 97 countries
and 131,132 respondents. The sample for aim 3 included data from
Argentina, Egypt, Finland and Japan. VariablesOur outcome of interest
was pro-equality norms in the context of access to the labor market for
women. Respondents were asked ``if jobs are scarce, men should have more
right to a job than women do?{''}. Response options included no, neither
or yes. We created a binary variable to represent pro-equality norms. We
included employment status and SRH as exposures of interest. AnalysisWe
used individual-level data to generate on-average and sex-stratified
estimates of the outcome and exposures for each country, at each time
point. We estimated the percentage of all respondents, of women, and of
men who held pro-equality norms (believe that men should not have more
right to a job than women), the percentage who were employed full time,
and the average level of SRH. To measure gender inequality in FTE, we
also estimated the absolute difference in FTE between women and men for
each country at each time point. First, we conducted descriptive,
cross-sectional ecological analyses using one survey per country from
wave 5 or 6 (whichever was most recent) to examine associations between
pro-equality norms and employment status as a proxy for associations
between norms and the context of employment in each country. We also
examined associations between pro-equality norms and SRH.
We then specified adjusted logistic regression models with controls for
age, sex and education to examine associations between pro-equality
norms and employment status. To examine if the relationship between FTE
and SRH varied by normative context, we grouped countries in quartiles
of pro-equality norms. Finally, we conducted descriptive ecological
analyses of the relationship between pro-equality norms and employment
status over time in four countries. ResultsObjective 1: Gender norms
intersect with socio-cultural contexts in determining women's FTE. While
in some countries gender norms aligned positively with women's access to
employment (i.e., more equal norms matched more equality in FTE), in
Eastern Europe and South America we observed a mismatch. In Eastern
Europe we found strong norms against equal access but small sex
differences in FTE. In South America, we observed a stark difference in
FTE favoring men, despite positive gender norms promoting women's paid
employment. Objective 2: We found the association between SRH and FTE to
vary across normative contexts. For instance, while in Scandinavian
countries it was protective to be a woman in FTE and harmful not to work
full-time, we found the opposite effect in Middle Eastern countries.
Objective 3: We found a general tendency to move toward greater equality
in norms and FTE over time everywhere in the world. However, political
and economic events can generate variations over time and setbacks in
progress toward equality.We specifically looked at 4 countries:
Argentina, Egypt, Finland and Japan and assessed the effects of
economic, political and national legislative changes on FTE over time.
ImplicationsThis paper contributes to the conversation on tensions
between universal justice and contextual factors affecting one's health.
To achieve purposeful and global universal health and justice, policy
makers and global health practitioners must design effective,
context-relevant interventions that are deeply and transparently
informed by the values they embody. As we strive to achieve global
gender equality, its meanings and purposes will vary across contexts in
ways that demand people-led conversations and interventions.},

Abstract = {This paper studies the school to work transition in the UK with the aim
of achieving a richer understanding of individuals' trajectories in the
five years after reaching school leaving age. By applying the technique
of `optimal matching' on data from 1991 to 2008, we group individuals'
trajectories post-16, and identify a small number of distinct transition
patterns. Our results suggest that while 9 out of 10 young people have
generally positive experiences post-16, the remaining individuals
exhibit a variety of histories that might warrant policy attention. We
assess the extent to which characteristics at age 16 can predict which
type of trajectory a young person will follow. Our analysis shows that,
despite the apparent heterogeneity, virtually all at-risk trajectories
are associated with a relatively small set of key `risk factors': early
pregnancy; low educational attainment and self-confidence; and
disadvantaged family background. These characteristics are known to be
strongly correlated across individuals and raise concerns about the
degree of socioeconomic polarisation in the transition from school to
work. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.},

Title = {Barriers to and facilitators of labor market engagement for individuals
with chronic physical illnesses in their experiences with work
disability policy: a qualitative systematic review},
Journal = {JBI EVIDENCE SYNTHESIS},
Year = {2022},
Volume = {20},
Number = {2},

Month = {FEB},
Abstract = {Objective: The objective of this review was to identify and synthesize
the best available evidence to address two questions. From the
perspectives of individuals with chronic physical illnesses: i) what are
the barriers in work disability policies with respect to labor market
engagement? and ii) what are the facilitators in work disability
policies with respect to labor market engagement? Introduction: Chronic
physical illnesses have a high and increasing prevalence worldwide and
are associated with significant disability in the working-age
population. Individuals with chronic illnesses and disability have low
employment and high unemployment rates, and low wages. Work disability
policies have an important role in reducing negative labor market
impacts, but inadequate policies may also pose barriers to work
engagement. Inclusion criteria: This review included studies of
individuals who were of working age, had one or more chronic physical
illness, and had experience relevant to disability policy and work
engagement. The phenomena of interest were perceived barriers and
perceived facilitators in work disability policies with respect to labor
market engagement. The context was any study setting globally. Studies
considered for this review had qualitative data from a variety of
methodologies. Methods: This review was conducted in accordance with the
JBI methodology for systematic reviews of qualitative evidence. A
literature search involved academic databases (ie, CINAHL Plus, MEDLINE,
PsycINFO, AgeLine, SocINDEX, Social Work Abstracts, Sociological
Abstracts, Social Services Abstracts) for published studies; gray
literature sources (ie, ProQuest Dissertations and Theses, MedNar,
Google Scholar, OpenGrey, OAIster, Google, and relevant websites) for
unpublished studies; and reference lists of retrieved records. No
language, date, or country limiters were applied to the searches.
Retrieved records from the database and gray literature searches were
screened, with potentially relevant records then examined in full
against the inclusion criteria. Eligible studies were critically
appraised for methodological quality and those included in this review
were subjected to data extraction of descriptive details and the study
findings that were relevant to the review questions. Study findings were
synthesized and were assigned confidence scores. Results: Forty-four
studies of various qualitative designs and varied methodological quality
(from low to high) were included in this review. The study samples
represented a number of different chronic physical illnesses. There were
301 credible and unequivocal study findings, which were aggregated into
20 categories and 5 synthesized findings. Persons with chronic physical
illnesses perceived barriers and facilitators relevant to the adequacy
of disability policies in meeting their needs for returning to work
after leave due to illness and for sustaining ongoing work engagement.
They also perceived barriers and facilitators relevant to stakeholders'
communication, help, and support respecting workers' efforts toward work
engagement. Conclusion: Although confidence in the synthesized findings
is low due to limitations in the methods and research findings across
primary studies, the evidence suggests that both the adequacy and
implementation of work disability policies need to be improved to meet
the needs of workers with chronic physical illnesses, for their labor
market engagement. Systematic review registration number: PROSPERO

Review},

Month = {DEC},
Abstract = {Purpose This systematic review analyzed the effectiveness of
rehabilitation interventions on the employment and functioning of people
with intellectual disabilities (ID), as well as barriers and
facilitators of employment. Methods This was a systematic review of
quantitative, qualitative, and mixed methods studies. The outcomes were
employment, transition to the open labor market and functioning. The
review included qualitative studies of employment barriers and
facilitators. The population comprised people with ID aged 16-68 years.
Peer-reviewed articles published in English between January 1990 and
February 2019 were obtained from the databases Cinahl, the Cochrane
Library, Embase, Eric, Medic, Medline, OTseeker, Pedro, PsycInfo,
PubMed, Socindex, and the Web of Science. We also searched Google
Scholar and Base. The modified selection instrument (PIOS: participants,
intervention, outcome, and study design) used in the selection of the
articles depended on the selection criteria. Results Ten quantitative
(one randomized controlled, one concurrently controlled, and eight
cohort studies), six qualitative studies, one multimethod study, and 21
case studies met the inclusion criteria. The quantitative studies showed
that secondary education increases employment among people with ID when
it includes work experience and personal support services. Supported
employment also increased employment in the open labor market, which
sheltered work did not. The barriers to employment were the use of
sheltered work, discrimination in vocational experience, the use of
class teaching, and deficient work experience while still at school. The
facilitators of employment were one's own activity, the support of one's
family, job coaching, a well-designed work environment, appreciation of
one's work, support form one's employer and work organization, knowledge
and experience of employment during secondary education, and for
entrepreneurs, the use of a support person. Conclusions The employment
of people with ID can be improved through secondary education including
proper teaching methods and personal support services, the use of
supported work, workplace accommodations and support from one's family
and employer. These results can be utilized in the development of
rehabilitation, education, and the employment of people with ID, to
allow them the opportunity to work in the open labor market and
participate in society.},

Abstract = {In this paper we explore the responses of a group of long-term

We draw from an evaluation of a recent pilot scheme: the UK Employment

responses, shaped through experiences which reflect gender, class, and
age divisions. Despite significant tabour market disadvantage, some of
the men responded by proactively engaging with the employability agenda.
Drawing on qualitative longitudinal data, we follow the trajectories of
the men in work, examining how they fared in insecure, precarious labour
markets. We conclude by looking at the strengths and limitations of the
current policy agenda, suggesting that more creative ways need to be
found to engage some of the most disadvantaged in the reskilling agenda

Title = {The effects of women's joining in paid employment on public place usage:
Sakarya Geyve case},
Journal = {MEGARON},
Year = {2022},
Volume = {17},
Number = {1},
Pages = {107-116},
Abstract = {This research is about the effects of women's being a part of paid
employment on the usage of public places by using women's daily life
experiences. Joining paid labour is a crucial strategy for women's
empowerment policies. Working outside means leaving home, private space,
and being a part of the public places for women. But creating job
opportunities for women is not a magical tool that solves all the gender
inequalities, on the contrary, Marxist feminists argue that the gendered
structure of labour even expands the gap between genders. And feminist
geographers underline that women experience public places with a range
of barriers created by the patriarchal form of built environments. Even
the women have decent works, it is not easy for women to be in public
just because the built environment avoids their needs. But despite this
hopeless and adverse framework, microanalyses that focus on female
workers from developing countries show that women embrace working
outside of the home. And when they have proper conditions, they create
their empowerment strategies which are slow but deep and strong. This
study aims to reveal these empowerments strategies and the needed
necessary conditions from the usage of public place perspective. The
study case, Geyve in Sakarya, has rural and urban characteristics at the
same time. Patriarchal and religious values are deeply embedded in the
place. And these values affect the gender roles, labour, and the usage
of public places too. Traditionally, women used to work in the
agricultural sector as unpaid workers. And their public place usage is
limited. But in the 1990s, two food factories opened in Geyve and
offered uneducated women a job opportunity aside from the agricultural
sector. Women's participation in paid labour in 30 years changed many
dynamics, usage of public places too. The study was conducted with the
feminist method, focusing on women's standpoint, to understand these
changes from the women's perspective. The main data source of this study
is the daily life experiences of blue-collar women. These daily life
experiences were obtained through in-depth interviews with twenty two
female workers. The factory representatives declared that the majority
of the female workers are married with children. For this reason, the
interviewees were mainly selected from married women with children. The
working conditions are critically important in women's changing
behaviours, for this reason, the study focused on a work environment
where women work in the same environment with men, under the same
conditions, and have the same rights. In this context, the study didn't
include Geyve's automotive sector. Because this sector is mostly
dominated by men. And the textile sector is also out of the scope of the
study for a similar reason. Textile sector workers are mostly female
and, there is a strong gender hierarchy in this sector. The food
factories, which are built in the 1990s and have 1500 workers together,
provide the appropriate conditions for the study. In-deep interviews
focused on revealing gendered forms of public places, women's
questioning interiorised gender roles, and the reflections of these
questionings on public place usage. The study showed that women's
strategies diversify based on their marital status, owning children, and
age. For example, mothers with school-aged children justify their
existence in public places with their motherhood identity. And young and
single women prefer the same cafes as college students.
Older women with adult children do not care to be in public or
themselves, but they admire the youngsters and support their younger
female members. There are two important common statements from
interviews. All interviewees emphasised that they have the same rights
to be in public because they work under the same conditions as men, and
earn the same money. And they feel safe when they are surrounded by
other females when they are in public places. These two statements show
that although the women are aware of the unfair patriarchal form of
public places, they don't try to demolish it to get their rights.
Instead of resisting, they bargain, negotiate, and create small freedom
areas for themselves. Joining paid labour and public life are crucial
elements of women's empowerment. But women face many barriers in this
way because of the patriarchy. Having local information about the
women's struggle and survival strategies can be helpful to create ideal
working places, empowerment policies, and place-making choices.
Hopefully, this study will be useful to understand women's standpoint
and include their needs and struggles during the policy-making
processes.},

Africa's diversity. Nanotechnology research supports existing businesses

Overall, the effort created nanotechnology innovation that is somewhat
inclusive in its intent, impact, process, and structure. However,
innovation could be more inclusive and just by focusing more on

Abstract = {Evidence-based advocacy underpins the sustainable delivery of quality,
publicly guaranteed, and universally available palliative care. More
than 60 million people in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) have
no or extremely limited access to either palliative care services or
essential palliative care medicines (e.g., opioids) on the World Health
Organization Model List. Indeed, only 12\% of the global palliative care
need is currently being met. Palliative care advocacy works to bring
this global public health inequity to light. Despite their expertise,
palliative care practitioners in LMICs are rarely invited to health
policymaking tables - even in their own countries - and are
underrepresented in the academic literature produced largely in the
high-income world. In this paper, palliative care experts from
Bangladesh, Colombia, Egypt, Sudan, Uganda, and Zambia affiliated with
the International Association for Hospice \& Palliative Care Advocacy
Focal Point Program articulate the urgent need for evidence-based
advocacy, focusing on significant barriers such as urban/rural divides,
cancer-centeredness, service delivery gaps, opioid formulary
limitations, public policy, and education deficits. Their advocacy is
situated in the context of an emerging global health narrative that
stipulates palliative care provision as an ethical obligation of all
health systems. To support advocacy efforts, palliative care evaluation
and indicator data should assess the extent to which LMIC practitioners
lead and participate in global and regional advocacy. This goal entails
investment in transnational advocacy initiatives, research investments
in palliative care access and cost-effective models in LMICs, and
capacity building for a global community of practice to capture the
attention of policymakers at all levels of health system governance. (c)

Abstract = {The implementation of the nurse practitioner (NP) workforce in primary
health care (PHC) in New Zealand has been slow, despite ongoing concerns
over persisting health inequalities and a crisis in the primary care
physician workforce. This article, as part of a wider institutional
ethnography, draws on the experiences of one NP and two NP candidates,
as they struggle to establish and deliver PHC services in areas of high
need, rural, and Indigenous Maori communities in New Zealand. Using
information gathered initially by interview, we develop an analysis of
how the institutional and policy context is shaping their experiences
and limiting opportunities for the informants to provide meaningful
comprehensive PHC. Their work (time and effort), with various health
organizations, was halted with little rationale, and seemingly contrary
to New Zealand's strategic direction for PHC stipulated in the Primary
Health Care Strategy 2001. The tension between the extant biomedical
model, known as primary care, and the broader principles of PHC was
evident. Our analysis explored how the perpetuation of the neoliberal
health policy environment through a ``hands-off{''} approach from
central government and district health boards resulted in a highly
fragmented and complex health sector. Ongoing policy and sector
perseverance to support privately owned physician-led general practice;
a competitive contractual environment; and significant structural health
sector changes, all restricted the establishment of NP services.
Instead, commitment across the health sector is needed to ensure
implementation of the NP workforce as autonomous mainstream providers of
comprehensive PHC services.},

Title = {Services for people with communication disability in Fiji: barriers and
drivers of change},
Journal = {RURAL AND REMOTE HEALTH},
Year = {2015},
Volume = {15},
Number = {3},
Month = {JUL-SEP},
Abstract = {Context: The World Health Organization's World report on disability
calls upon all nations to `remove the barriers which prevent {[}people
with disabilities] from participating in their communities; getting a
quality education, finding decent work, and having their voices heard'
(p. 5). People with communication disability (PWCD), as a consequence of
their atypical communication, may be more likely to be excluded from
society, and denied their basic human rights, than other people with
disability. Fiji, a multicultural and multilingual nation in the
south-western Pacific Ocean, has limited services for PWCD. Service
providers in Fiji include disability care workers, special education
teachers, traditional healers, and a small number of visiting volunteer
speech-language pathologists. This paper outlines the historical and
current barriers to, and drivers of change for, service development for
PWCD in Fiji.
Issues: Five barriers to service development for PWCD in Fiji were
identified. (1) A major structural barrier is the small population size
to develop appropriate infrastructure including professional education
programs. (2) Geographical barriers include the dispersed geography
across 300 islands, low population density, the rural-urban divide, and
risk of disaster from cyclones and flooding. (3) Linguistic diversity,
while culturally important, can present a barrier to the provision of
quality services that are available in the languages spoken by PWCD. (4)
Cultural barriers include historical political instability, although
Fiji has become more stable due to the recent democratic elections. The
social climate affects development of services that are appropriate for
different dominant cultural groups. (5) Financial barriers include low
gross domestic product, low financial security and low human development
index; however, the financial outlook for Fiji is steadily improving due
to the change in political stability.
Lessons learned: Three levels of drivers of change were identified.
Macro-level drivers included Fiji's endorsement of international policy
and increased globalisation (eg tourism). Meso-level drivers of change
included receipt of foreign aid and support from international
non-government organisations, development of disability-inclusive
legislation and policy within Fiji, and strengthening of government
policies that support disabled people's organisations. Micro-level
drivers of change included establishment of disabled people's
organisations by consumers, adoption of disability-inclusive policy and
procedures by service providers, and changes in the perceptions of
disability within the general community. Fijian prevalence data confirms
that there is an underserved population of PWCD in need of specialist
services. Significant advocacy work in the disability field by Fijian
and international disabled people's organisations has led to the Fiji
government signing international policy (eg Convention on the Rights of
Peoples with Disabilities), inclusion of disability rights in national
legislation (eg 2013 Constitution of Fiji Islands) and localised policy
and practice documentation (eg inclusive education policy by the Fiji
Islands Ministry of Education). Continued service development is
required if Fijians with communication disability are to have their
needs met. The drivers of change at all levels are positioned well to
overcome current barriers to change; however, a coordinated approach
including macro-, meso-, and micro-level drivers is required to ensure
the future development of adequate services for PWCD in Fiji.},

Abstract = {To review recent literature on the rate and barrier to return to work
(RTW) as well as the type of occupation reentry after spinal cord injury
(SCI). Study search had been conducted in health sciences databases such
as MEDLINE via OvidSP, Cinahl via Ebsco and PubMed from 2010-2015. The
keywords used were `spinal cord injuries,' `spinal cord injury,' `spinal
cord lesion' `tetraplegia,' `paraplegia,' or `quadriplegia,'
`employment,' `return to work,' `occupation' or `vocational.' The search
had retrieved 623 references to be filtered. The filtration yielded 346
abstracts to be assessed for eligibility. The abstracts reviewed yielded
21 eligible studies for further review. The rate of RTW was found low in
most of the included studies with the range of 12.9\% to 42.1\%.
Paraplegia, male, adult, and higher physical function had been the most
employed. Low physical demand job such as management and administration,
lecturing, teaching, and training, business and services, were the most
re-entered. Secondary complications, transportation, poor accessibility
at work, lack of knowledge and job were the most common barriers to RTW.
Better health status, higher physical function, support and
consideration, emotional stability and motivation, higher education, and
transportation may facilitate the RTW. This information may assist the
case or disability management, particularly during job seeking period to
enhance the rate of RTW among SCI.},

Abstract = {This article provides lessons learned on establishing effective
community participation in two externally funded, NGO-implemented health
projects working at district level in Cambodia. The first project was
implemented in accordance with the Cambodian national guidelines on
community participation. The second using lessons and experiences gained
as a result of the first project - worked with Buddhist pagoda
volunteers. Primary research was conducted in both settings to assess
the effectiveness of the two participation strategies. The article
concludes that the success of community participation in externally
funded health projects with relatively short implementation timeframes
requires engagement with existing community-based organizations and
agencies. In Cambodia, where Theravada Buddhism is the dominant
religion, pagodas and associated volunteers appear to represent such an
organization. Community participation structured around pagoda
volunteers - who are held in high esteem within their local communities
- is more effective and sustainable than newly (and externally)
established community structures with formally elected representatives.
Pagodas and associated volunteers in rural Cambodia offer the advantages
of effective leadership, local organization, resource mobilization and
management. It is recommended that programmes and agencies wishing to
adopt community participation strategies in health utilize participatory
research to identify the most appropriate local organization to lead
such initiatives.},

Abstract = {Objective: maternal mortality represents the single greatest health
disparity between high and low income countries. This inequity is
especially felt in low income countries in sub Saharan Africa and
Southeast Asia where 99\% of the global burden of maternal death is
borne. A goal of MDG 5 is to reduce maternal mortality and have a
skilled attendant at every birth by 2015. A critical skill is ongoing
intrapartum monitoring of labour progress and maternal/fetal well-being.
The WHO partograph was designed to assess these parameters.
Design and setting: a retrospective review of charts (n = 1,845)
retrieved consecutively over a 2 month period in a tertiary teaching
hospital in Ghana was conducted to assess the adequacy of partograph use
by skilled birth attendants and the timeliness of action taken if the
action line was crossed. WHO guidelines were implemented to assess the
adequacy of partograph use and how this affected maternal neonatal
outcomes. Further, the timeliness and type of action taken if action
line was crossed was assessed.
Findings: partographs were adequately completed in accordance with WHO
guidelines only 25.6\% (472) of the time and some data appeared to be
entered retrospectively. Partograph use was associated with less
maternal blood loss and neonatal injuries. When the action line was
crossed (464), timely action was taken only 48.7\% of the time and was
associated with less assisted delivery and a fewer low Apgar scores and
NICU admissions.
Conclusion: when adequately used and timely interventions taken, the
partograph was an effective tool. Feasibility of partograph use requires
more scrutiny; particularly identification of minimum frequency for safe
monitoring and key variables as well as a better understanding of why
skilled attendants have not consistently `bought in' to partograph use.

Abstract = {This article explores the complexities and ambiguities in Norwegian
families' interaction with the public childcare system. Public childcare
is a cornerstone in the `double dividend', that is, social policies that
equalize children's life chances and support gender equality. The dual
earner/dual carer family model interacts with full-time participation in
the labour market, gender equality at home and universal access to
childcare, and has made contemporary childhood multi-local and mobile.
As part of their everyday organization of care, parents have to
establish connections between home, work and childcare. Here, we use the
concept of `care loops' to analyse how local families `do' combinations
of welfare services, family resources, gender ideologies and the labour
of migrant care workers. Drawing on empirical research on migrant care
workers in Norwegian families and discussing recent studies of majority
families' care practices, the article discusses the paradox that
egalitarian norms and ideals might generate extra workloads that in turn
create demands for migrant care workers and trigger geopolitical
inequality.},

Success in Evidence-Based Lifestyle-Change Programs in Racial and Ethnic
Minority Populations},
Journal = {PREVENTING CHRONIC DISEASE},
Year = {2023},
Volume = {20},
Month = {AUG},
Abstract = {Purpose and Objectives Chronic diseases (eg, diabetes, hypertension) are
the leading causes of death in the US and disproportionally affect
racial and ethnic minority populations. This disparity is partially due
to the unequal burden of unmet social needs that stem from several
factors, including racism.Intervention Approach The Alliance is a
collaboration among health care, public health, and community
organizations formed to improve referral, enrollment, and successful
completion of evidence-based lifestyle change programs, particularly
among Black people. The Alliance built 1) a system to assess and address
social barriers through the screening and referral process and 2) a
training center for frontline staff (eg, community health workers).
Evaluation Methods From January 2020 through September 2022, we
conducted an evaluation that included both quantitative and qualitative
methods. We developed an electronic database to make referrals and track
key barriers to participation. Additionally, we conducted a focus group
among frontline staff (N = 15) to understand the challenges in making
referrals and discussing, documenting, and addressing barriers to
participation. We used surveys that collected quantitative and
open-ended qualitative responses to evaluate the training center and to
understand perceptions of training modules as well as the skills
gained.Results Frontline staff engaged with 6,036 people, of whom 847
(14\%) were referred to a lifestyle-change program from January 2020
through September 2022. Of those referred, 257 (30\%) were eligible and
enrolled in a program. Food access and unreliable inter net were the
most common barriers to participation. Thirteen of 15 frontline staff
participated in trainings, and, on average, trainees completed 4.2
trainings and gained several skills (eg, ability to monitor personal
bias, de-escalate a crisis, educate on mental health, understand
community and environmental factors). Implications for Public Health The
Alliance is an example of how health care, public health, and community
partners can work together to increase enrollment in lifestyle-change
programs of residents disproportionately affected by chronic diseases.
Lessons learned from implementation and evaluation can inform other
complex partnerships to improve public health.},

Title = {Electronic Health Records as Biased Tools or Tools Against Bias: A
Conceptual Model},
Journal = {MILBANK QUARTERLY},
Year = {2022},
Volume = {100},
Number = {1},
Pages = {134-150},
Month = {MAR},
Abstract = {Policy Points Electronic health records (EHRs) are subject to the
implicit bias of their designers, which risks perpetuating and
amplifying that bias over time and across users. If left unchecked, the
bias in the design of EHRs and the subsequent bias in EHR information
will lead to disparities in clinical, organizational, and policy
outcomes. Electronic health records can instead be designed to challenge
the implicit bias of their users, but that is unlikely to happen unless
incentivized through innovative policy. Context Health care delivery is
now inextricably linked to the use of electronic health records (EHRs),
which exert considerable influence over providers, patients, and
organizations. Methods This article offers a conceptual model showing
how the design and subsequent use of EHRs can be subject to bias and can
either encode and perpetuate systemic racism or be used to challenge it.
Using structuration theory, the model demonstrates how a social
structure, like an EHR, creates a cyclical relationship between the
environment and people, either advancing or undermining important social
values. Findings The model illustrates how the implicit bias of
individuals, both developers and end-user clinical providers, influence
the platform and its associated information. Biased information can then
lead to inequitable outcomes in clinical care, organizational decisions,
and public policy. The biased information also influences subsequent
users, amplifying their own implicit biases and potentially compounding
the level of bias in the information itself. The conceptual model is
used to explain how this concern is fundamentally a matter of quality.
Relying on the Donabedian model, it explains how elements of the EHR
design (structure), use (process), and the ends for which it is used
(outcome) can first be used to evaluate where bias may become embedded
in the system itself, but then also identify opportunities to resist and
actively challenge bias. Conclusions Our conceptual model may be able to
redefine and improve the value of technology to health by modifying EHRs
to support more equitable data that can be used for better patient care
and public policy. For EHRs to do this, further work is needed to
develop measures that assess bias in structure, process, and outcome, as
well as policies to persuade vendors and health systems to prioritize
systemic equity as a core goal of EHRs.},

bargaining plummets by 16.5 (19.1) percentage points for male (female)
employees. Despite these changes, the gender wage gap remains almost
constant, with some small gains for women at the bottom and at the top
of the wage distribution. A sequential decomposition analysis using
quantile regression shows that all workplace related effects (firm
effects and bargaining effects) and coefficients for personal
characteristics contribute strongly to the rise in wage inequality.
Among these, the firm coefficients effect dominates, which is almost
exclusively driven by wage differences within and between different
industries. Labor demand or firm wage policy related effects contribute
to an increase in the gender wage gap. Personal characteristics tend to
reduce wage inequality for both males and females, as well as the gender
wage gap. (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.},

Abstract = {As citizens increasingly work to improve transparency and governance,
participatory budgeting (PB) has emerged in thousands of cities.
Advocates argue that PB can serve to educate citizens, increase
transparency, and even improve living standards in the cities and towns
that implement this form of public finance. However, we still know very
little about how inclusive these processes are. This article asks:
first, are participatory budgeting processes engaging women and men
equally? Second, if gender exclusion is taking place, why? Finally, what
can the development community do to begin to eradicate exclusion?
Through the case study of participatory budgeting in Peru, the article
documents that participatory budgeting in this country is not inclusive.
Economic barriers, combined with the fact that women are expected to
take on most domestic duties, make it very hard for women to actually
attend meetings, especially in rural areas where poverty and patriarchy
are more pronounced. Additionally, the weakness of women's organizations
prevents many organizations from registering to attend these processes.
The article concludes with recommendations for advocates who wish to
rectify these challenges through concrete interventions.},

Title = {Reclaiming localisation for revitalising agriculture: A case study of
peri-urban agricultural change in Gothenburg, Sweden},
Journal = {JOURNAL OF RURAL STUDIES},
Year = {2016},
Volume = {47},

Month = {OCT},
Abstract = {Agriculture near urban landscapes has recently been re-appreciated with
the recognition of its economic, social and environmental contributions.
However, rapid urbanisation and global agricultural restructuring
constituting complex processes across multiple scales tend to threaten
the survival of peri-urban agriculture. Focusing on family farms near
Gothenburg in Sweden, this paper intends to explore the. relations
between location and agriculture and how family farms have been able to
continue farming in peri-urban areas. Unlike previous studies of
peri-urban agriculture, mostly carried out by planners from an
urban-centric perspective, this paper deploys a rural and place-based
perspective by drawing on theories of agricultural location. Based on
statistical and spatial analyses of land use change, and interviews with
farmers and authorities, the processes and drivers of local agricultural
change are analysed. The results identify four simultaneous processes
that produce the diversity in forms of agriculture between farms:
structural changes, loss of farmland to urban expansion, specialisation
of on-farm activities and a niching trend of on-farm activities. The new
findings which shed light on the theory of agricultural localisation
are: 1) niche production greatly takes advantage of the pea-urban
location; 2) a reverse von Thunen's transportation pattern is enabled by
the proximity to urban consumers; 3) enhancing competitive advantage
through saving labour costs is enabled by the direct relation to
consumers at the peri-urban location; 4) multifunctional agriculture has
potential but also raises conflicts between different types of land use
in ped-urban areas; 5) a secured access to land for farmers enabled by
the local governance which separates the increasing land value from land
rent is fundamental for supporting continued peri-urban agriculture. Our
recommendation is that policy makers need to shift to a
location-sensitive governing praxis of agriculture in order to
re-vitalise pea-urban areas. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.},

Title = {Understanding the Impact of EU Prostitution Policies on Sex Workers: A
Mixed Study Systematic Review},
Journal = {SEXUALITY RESEARCH AND SOCIAL POLICY},
Year = {2023},
Month = {2023 MAY 6},
Abstract = {IntroductionThere is a growing interest in legislation and policies
regarding sex work in the European Union and a debate between two
opposite perspectives: prostitution is a form of gender violence or a
work lacking legal and social recognition. This review aims to develop
an integrative synthesis of literature regarding the impact of
prostitution policies on sex workers' health, safety, and living and
working conditions across EU member states.MethodsA search conducted at
the end of 2020 in bibliographic databases for quantitative,
qualitative, and mixed methods peer-reviewed research, and grey
literature published between 2000 and 2020 resulted in 1195 initial
references eligible for inclusion. After applying the selection
criteria, 30 records were included in the review. A basic convergent
qualitative meta-integration approach to synthesis and integration was
used. The systematic review is registered through PROSPERO
(CRD42021236624).ResultsResearch shows multiple impacts on the health,
safety, and living and working conditions of sex workers across the
EU.ConclusionsEvidence demonstrates that criminalisation and regulation
of any form of sex work had negative consequences on sex workers who
live in the EU in terms of healthcare, prevalence and risk of
contracting HIV and STIs, stigmatisation and discrimination, physical
and sexual victimisation, and marginalisation due to marked social
inequalities, for both nationals and migrants from outside the EU.Policy
ImplicationsThe evidence available makes a strong case for removing any
criminal laws and other forms of sanctioning sex workers, clients, and
third parties, which are prevalent in the EU, and for decriminalisation.
There is a need for structural changes in policing and legislation that
focus on labour and legal rights, social and financial inequities, human
rights, and stigma and discrimination to protect cis and transgender sex
workers and ethnical minorities in greater commitment to reduce sex
workers' social inequalities, exclusion, and lack of institutional
support. These measures could also positively impact reducing and
monitoring human trafficking and exploitation.},

Abstract = {Mothers in the United States use a combination of employment, public
transfers, and private safety nets to cushion the economic losses of
romantic union dissolution, but changes in maternal labor force
participation, government transfer programs, and private social networks
may have altered the economic impact of union dissolution over time.
Using nationally representative panels from the Survey of Income and
Program Participation (SIPP) from 1984 to 2007, we show that the
economic consequences of divorce have declined since the 1980s owing to
the growth in married women's earnings and their receipt of child
support and income from personal networks. In contrast, the economic
consequences of cohabitation dissolution were modest in the 1980s but
have worsened over time. Cohabiting mothers' income losses associated
with union dissolution now closely resemble those of divorced mothers.
These trends imply that changes in marital stability have not
contributed to rising income instability among families with children,
but trends in the extent and economic costs of cohabitation have likely
contributed to rising income instability for less-advantaged children.},

Spain},
Journal = {ADICCIONES},
Year = {2018},
Volume = {30},
Number = {3},
Pages = {189-196},
Abstract = {Background: Screening for alcohol consumption in adolescents is widely
justified in the health care field because of the particular
vulnerability of this population, which starts drinking alcohol at a
very early age and frequently consumes high levels of the same. Hospital
emergency departments (ED) could be a good venue to manage early
detection and carry out brief intervention (BI) programmes.
Objectives: The aim of this study was to identify perceived barriers for
medical staff of three hospitals in Spain to successfully implement a
protocol for alcohol detection and BI for minors in the ED.
Methods: Exploratory qualitative analysis using focus groups with
semi-structured, flexible and open-ended questions to explore beliefs,
attitudes, and barriers perceived by professionals to screening alcohol
consumption and implementing BI in adolescents attended at the ED.
Results: The main perceived barriers by health professionals were lack
of time, work overload, mistrust, lack of validated and simple screening
tools, lack of training/awareness and legal concerns about informed
consent and confidentiality.
Conclusions:. Barriers to screening and intervention in ED are similar
to those described previously. It is necessary to improve organization
of time allocated for medical consultations, avoid limiting ED
resources, motivate staff and provide appropriate training.},

Abstract = {Economic empowerment of women can lead to better growth, greater
competitiveness and better human development. Economic empowerment of
women through entrepreneurship and small business offers a huge space
for the introduction real changes in their lives. Entrepreneurship and
small business located in the center of events as change agents in the
world, regardless of whether it is more or less developed countries.
Why? Because it is an important source of job creation and open career
opportunities for both men and women. It is an indisputable fact,
however, that one is going, extensive presence of asymmetry in the
approach to entrepreneurship and small business, which, among other
things, also reflected in the trends in the labor market. Men and women
were and still are affected by the loss or reduced employment security,
or job loss, and women take an increasing share of responsibility cost
of living adjustment for the family. But man traditionally ``remains{''}
breadwinner of the family as conditional access to employment, and this
fact leads to high levels of participation of women on the list of the
unemployed. For all that, as a result, self-employment has become for
many women this is their only chance for paid work. At the same time,
however, women are confronted with fewer opportunities to start their
own business due to specific gender barriers in access to information,
support networks and collateral. Determining sexually sensitive policies
in supporting the development of small and medium business is therefore
an important priority of economic policy in countries in transition. The
primary goal is that through a descriptive study (first in Bosnia and
Herzegovina) to determine whether and to what extent business problems
are present in a woman's small entrepreneurship in Bosnia and
Herzegovina in post-conflict and transitional reality. In a broader
context, the results should show whether and to what extent business
problems are related to insufficient economic education, and to indicate
the level of readiness of women entrepreneur in small business to
further education, and the purpose of acquiring the knowledge necessary
for solving business problems. Work will in this regard try to show what
the current economic opportunities for additional education for women
entrepreneur in Bosnia and Herzegovina. For the realization of the
research there will be used all the basic methods of logical and
scientific knowledge. Research on this topic was based on primary data
collection methods, testing techniques through surveys. To this end, we
have interviewed 125 women entrepreneur in small business in Bosnia and
Herzegovina.
The work will include theoretical analysis of the concept of women's
entrepreneurship in general, based on the available literature,
scientific articles, professional journals, and other available and
relevant information. In connection with the interpretation of the data
obtained, the paper will in this regard provide recommendations for
measures to ensure the initial conditions (empowerment through all forms
of education and training) that would result in a larger (self)
employment of women and their increased participation in economic
activities.},

Title = {Impact of cooperative entrepreneurship on territorial human development
in Morocco - Spatial analysis},
Journal = {INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF SOCIAL ECONOMICS},
Year = {2022},
Volume = {49},
Number = {6},
Pages = {914-929},
Month = {MAY 12},
Abstract = {Purpose This paper deals with the spatial impact of cooperative
entrepreneurship on territorial human development in Morocco. Within the
background of the new development model in Morocco, this study aims to
explore how the social and solidarity economy (SSE) through the
cooperative model can reduce territorial inequalities by promoting
economic dynamics in territories with suboptimal human development.
Design/methodology/approach The empirical material is compiled from a
database of 75 provinces in Morocco. After establishing a typology of
the SSE in these territories, a test of the spatial effect of some
indicators, such as the rate of urbanization and female employment, was
undertaken. Moreover, a spatial impact study of the cooperatives'
entrepreneurship and the local human development index will be carried
out among the cooperatives' numbers and the share of their members.
Findings This study's results indicate a diversity in the participation
of the SSE in the regulation of territories. First, there is a
heterogeneous relationship in the Moroccan space. Then, the cooperative
model in Morocco shows that it plays a central role in readjusting
social and spatial inequalities, pointing territories with suboptimal
human development. Research limitations/implications Although our
theoretical contribution covers the impact of the three components of
the SSE on territorial human development in Morocco. The empirical work
of this study is limited to only one component of the SSE which are the
cooperatives. The future perspectives of this work are to follow the
impact of the three components after the implementation of the new
development model in Morocco. Practical implications The main
implication of this study is to map out the spatial role of cooperatives
in territorial planning in Morocco. Policy makers still need to
consolidate the implication of the cooperatives as a tool for promoting
spatial equity, through the governance and the convergence between the
different support and accompaniment programs for cooperatives in areas
of human development deprivation. Originality/value The originality of
this work comes from the exploration of the spatial dimension for the
analysis of the role of the cooperatives for the promotion of a
territorial human development. The SSE typologies described in the
Moroccan provinces can allow actors to develop a business plan for the
implementation of SSE initiatives.},

Abstract = {Objektives Using qualitative-hermeneutical methods with a focus on
biographical (risk-) constellations for conditions of success or failure
of return to work - and therefore on the efficiency and sustainability
of employment participation benefits - the study accompanies
participants during a time span of 2 years after their vocational
retraining on their way back into the first labor market. Methods The
study applies a mixed method design which combines 30
episodical-narrative interviews of participating rehabilitants alongside
with a questionnaire survey of a total of 214 participants and 19
interviews of scientists and vocational retraining experts. Results
Overall approximately 80\% of the participants of our sample
successfully return to work within a period of 18 months. Significant
barriers can be illustrated by characteristic risk constellations, which
correspond to the following dimensions: occupational choice, coping with
illness, the need for protective area beyond the rehabilitation scheme,
lack of (typical) life course orientation, lack of acceptance of a
transitional phase with lower salary, regional occupation-specific labor
market as well as social inclusion and support. Conclusion
Qualitative-hermeneutical methods generate - apart from diagnostic
attributions and theoretical hypotheses - new factors effective for
return to work with importance for rehabilitants; these factors refer to
their embeddedness in processes, interrelations and interactions between
biography, context factors, and administrative routines. The results
identify specific needs for post-rehabilitation services supporting
persons with risk constellations.},

However, as our study evidenced, students with disability face
significant and unique barriers to securing and completing WIL

Australian university (n = 132) to explore their experiences and
perceptions of WIL placements. Our findings indicate that while many
students are motivated to participate in placements, they have concerns
about how their disability, medical or mental health condition(s) will
be accepted by the organisations and whether their requests for
accommodations will be facilitated without judgement from supervisors.
The findings from our study are relevant to the fields of
disability/inclusion and employability, as the results showcase that
current policies and practices do not adequately support diverse

community-based agencies, governmental partners, and funding agencies to
tackle this grand challenge at the community level. The coalition
adopted Communities That Care, a tested model for developing prevention
infrastructure in communities by building the capacity of community
coalitions to assess and prioritize local need, match need to
evidence-based prevention programs, and support quality implementation
with sufficient reach to change behavioral health problems at the
community level. The collaboration chose the name Communities in Action

Title = {Pilot implementation of MiLES: a web-based intervention targeted at
managers with the aim of enhancing the successful return to work of
employees with cancer},

Abstract = {BackgroundMiLES is a web-based intervention targeted at managers with
the aim of enhancing the successful return to work (RTW) of employees
with cancer. The purpose of this study was to identify barriers to and
facilitators of implementing MiLES in organizations, from a manager's
perspective.Material and MethodsMiLES was implemented as a pilot in four
organizations for six weeks. Sixteen managers were included, of which
fourteen were interviewed regarding their perceived barriers to and
facilitators of implementation of MiLES in their organization.
Interviews were recorded, transcribed verbatim and analyzed with content
analysis.ResultsThe managers experienced barriers to and facilitators of
implementation related to: (1) implementation responsibilities, (2) the
intervention's content, and (3) organizational characteristics.
Regarding implementation responsibilities, management board approval and
an organizational infrastructure with distinct described implementation
responsibilities were perceived as facilitators. Regarding the
intervention's content, its accessibility, user-friendliness and
completeness were perceived as facilitators. If the content did not meet
the manager's specific needs, this was perceived as a barrier. Regarding
organizational characteristics, several intangible (e.g., added value of
MiLES within different organizations) and tangible (e.g., integration
into absenteeism registration) organizational characteristics were
perceived as facilitators. The absence of a quiet place to use MiLES was
perceived as barrier.ConclusionImplementation of MiLES in organizations
may benefit from an infrastructure within the organization that defines
responsibilities regarding intervention delivery to managers of
employees with cancer. Such an infrastructure should be aligned to
existing organizational structures. As per interviewed managers, MiLES
has added value in diverse organizations.},

Title = {The health of women in the US fire service},
Journal = {BMC WOMENS HEALTH},
Year = {2012},
Volume = {12},
Month = {OCT 31},
Abstract = {Background: Despite statements from national fire service organizations,
including the International Association of Fire Fighters (IAFF) and the
International Association of Fire Chiefs (IAFC), promoting a diverse
work force related to gender within the fire service, rates of women
firefighters remain very low. Thus, research into why this extensive
gender disparity continues is a high priority. Recent years have seen a
number of large scale studies on firefighter health and health risk
behaviors however, none have focused on the health of women firefighters
and nearly all have eliminated women from the sample due to small sample
size. Data from the present report is drawn from all females in a large,
randomly selected cohort of firefighters in an epidemiological study
designed to assess health outcomes and health risk behaviors identified
as most important to the fire service.
Methods: Data reported for the present study were collected as baseline
data for the Firefighter Injury and Risk Evaluation (FIRE) Study, a
longitudinal cohort study examining risk factors for injury in both
career and volunteer firefighters in the IAFC Missouri Valley Region. Of
the departments assessed, only 8 career and 6 volunteer departments had
any women firefighters. All the women solicited for participation chose
to enroll in the study. The number of women ranged from 1 to 7 in career
departments and 1 to 6 in volunteer departments.
Results: Where possible, comparisons are made between female
firefighters and published data on male firefighters as well as
comparisons between female firefighters and military members. Compared
to male firefighters, females had more favorable body composition among
both career and volunteer firefighters. Tobacco use rates were generally
higher among females than males and rates among female firefighters were
similar to the rates of female military members. While rates of alcohol
use were higher than the general population, only one of the
participants evidenced responses in the range of concern on the CAGE
screening.
Conclusions: In general, the findings offer an interesting glimpse of
the health of women in the fire service as a generally healthy
occupational workforce with some unique health risk behavior challenges.
They also highlight some of the similarities and differences between
male and female firefighters and bolster the argument for studying
female firefighters as a unique occupational sub-population.},

Title = {Barriers to finding and maintaining open employment for people with
intellectual disability in Australia},
Journal = {SOCIAL POLICY \& ADMINISTRATION},
Year = {2020},
Volume = {54},
Number = {1},
Pages = {88-101},
Month = {JAN},
Abstract = {Everyone has the right to employment. Work is important for health,
well-being, and social, economic, and financial inclusion. However, it
is often difficult for people with intellectual disability to find and
maintain work, especially in the open labour market. Policy challenges
remain about who can access open employment (also sometimes called
competitive or supported employment) and how often people with
intellectual disability do so. Greater understanding about the barriers
that people with intellectual disability encounter when they try to find
and keep work in open employment is needed.
Drawing on research with 51 people with intellectual disability in
Australia, this paper examines the systemic barriers they report to
finding and maintaining work in open employment. The findings highlight
that the barriers they experience stem from narrow, dismissive, and
discouraging attitudes to their work in open employment and from a
spectrum of experiences of stigma and discrimination in open workplaces.
The paper thus provides new knowledge about reasons that people with
intellectual disability may either reject or not continue in open
employment and take up less inclusive work options. The paper discusses
the implications of the findings, including the need for policy
development for attitudinal change, designing more varied roles for
employees with intellectual disability, ensuring access to industrial
relations protections, and increasing and better regulating and funding
requirements on support to people with intellectual disability who are
seeking work in open employment.},

forums},
Journal = {CULTURE HEALTH \& SEXUALITY},
Year = {2020},
Volume = {22},
Number = {6},
Pages = {646-659},
Month = {JUN 2},
Abstract = {An online forum analysis was conducted to explore experiences of sexual
violence and safety among transwomen, with a particular focus on
transwomen of colour. Four online forums were chosen for the analysis.
Three key themes were identified: dating and violence in intimate
relationships; fear of violence and safety strategies; and coping after
sexual assault. Forum posters faced heightened gender policing and
scrutiny, due to not conforming to normative ideals of femininity.
Femininity was also predicated on white, middle-class status, and
associated with domesticity and romance. As a result, expressions of
femininity from non-white backgrounds could be read as deviant or
excessive. The intersection of deviation from gender norms and
femininity based on whiteness meant that transwomen of colour faced
disproportionate levels of violence, both in public and private spaces.
Transwomen of colour also faced disadvantage due to participation in
higher-risk forms of sex work, low socioeconomic status and employment,
and institutional discrimination. Coping mechanisms to deal with
cumulative disadvantage included seeking support from health
professionals and transgender community networks. However, it also
included more harmful forms of self-medicating such as heavy alcohol and
drug use, self-harm and suicide attempts.},

Abstract = {Approximately 7 per cent of the African population is affiliated to the
cooperative movement, and in Kenya alone, cooperatives provide some two
million employment opportunities. In Africa, as elsewhere, inequalities
persist between women and men in terms of access to and control over
resources and opportunities. ILO provided insight into the inequality in
unemployment based on gender. ``In employment, women are found more
often than men in informal and precarious work, with particularly
pronounced imbalances in some sectors{''} (ILO, Geneva 2002). The
critical importance of closing gender gaps - which are not only contrary
to the realization of women's rights, but also an obstacle to poverty
reduction - is widely recognized. The report on the State of Food and
Agriculture of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United
Nations (FAO) shows, for instance, ``that if women had the same access
to productive resources as men, they could increase farm yields by 20-30
per cent, raising total agricultural output in developing countries by
2.5-4 per cent, which could in turn reduce the number of hungry people
in the world by 12-17 per cent{''} (FAO, Rome 2011). For women, who due
to gender-based norms often have lower access to and control over
economic and social resources and opportunities, cooperatives present
distinct advantages. According to Argawal, women participation in
cooperatives has its own advantages. ``Apart from being able to access
economies of scale as providers of services, producers or as consumers,
participating in a cooperative as a member, elected leader or manager
also brings with it enhanced status and voice in the community and
society in general{''} (Argawal 2001). Given that there is insufficient
research data on gender issues in Cooperatives, and in particular the
participation of women in Leadership roles, KUSCCO in collaboration with
the Cooperative University of Kenya conducted an qualitative empirical
research that focused on co-operatives under the umbrella of the Kenya
Union of Savings and Credit Co-operatives (KUSCCO) and explored
initiatives that KUSCCO has put in place in promoting gender integration
in them and recommended strategies for enhancing gender balance.},

Volume = {36},
Number = {6},

Month = {JUN 28},
Abstract = {Forming part of a larger project on how disabled people exercise active
citizenship in nine European countries, this study examined factors that
enhance or hamper disabled peoples' opportunities to participate fully
and on equal terms with others in the domain of work. Twenty-six,
gender-balanced life course interviews with persons living in
Switzerland and representing four impairment groups and three age
cohorts were conducted. Applying qualitative content analysis, we found
that over the entire work life course environmental factors such as
support structures and attitudes were most salient (as compared to
personal factors and impairment effects), and that facilitating and
impeding factors cut across impairment groups and age cohorts. To
achieve parity of participation and to enhance people with disabilities'
active citizenship and opportunities to access, and flourish in, the
labour market, society has to both recognize their rights and provide
sufficient economic resources to remove existing barriers.Points of
interest Having a paid job is an important aspect and sign of a person's
social participation and inclusion. We collected personal stories of
disabled people living in Switzerland to identify the barriers and
support they experienced in finding and maintaining a suitable paid job.
Most of the barriers identified were environmental and could have been
addressed by workplace adjustments and policy changes. The diversity of
the disabled interviewees was reflected in the barriers and support they
experienced. However, the presence or absence of support from family
members, job counsellors, employers and work colleagues played an
important role across different types of disabilities. Recognizing and
understanding the barriers that disabled people experience with regard
to paid employment will help to develop appropriate social responses and
individual strategies for self-help.},

Meta-Analysis of Quality Improvement Interventions in OECD Countries},
Journal = {PLOS ONE},
Year = {2013},
Volume = {8},
Number = {12},
Month = {DEC 19},
Abstract = {Background and Aims: Despite well documented disparities in health and
healthcare in rural communities, evidence in relation to quality
improvement (QI) interventions in those settings is still lacking. The
main goals of this work were to assess the effectiveness of QI
strategies designed to improve diabetes care in rural areas, and
identify characteristics associated with greater success.
Methods: We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis. Systematic
electronic searches were conducted in MEDLINE, EMBASE, CINAHL, and 12
additional bibliographic sources. Experimental studies carried out in
the OECD member countries assessing the effectiveness of QI
interventions aiming to improve diabetes care in rural areas were
included. The effect of the interventions and their impact on glycated
hemoglobin was pooled using a random-effects meta-analysis.
Results: Twenty-six studies assessing the effectiveness of twenty QI
interventions were included. Interventions targeted patients (45\%),
clinicians (5\%), the health system (15\%), or several targets (35\%),
and consisted of the implementation of one or multiple QI strategies.
Most of the interventions produced a positive impact on processes of
care or diabetes self-management, but a lower effect on health outcomes
was observed. Interventions with multiple strategies and targeting the
health system and/or clinicians were more likely to be effective. Six QI
interventions were included in the meta-analysis (1,496 patients), which
showed a significant reduction in overall glycated hemoglobin of 0.41
points from baseline in those patients receiving the interventions (95\%
CI -0.75\% to -0.07\%).
Conclusions: This work identified several characteristics associated
with successful interventions to improve the quality of diabetes care in
rural areas. Efforts to improve diabetes care in rural communities
should focus on interventions with multiple strategies targeted at
clinicians and/or the health system, rather than on traditional
patientoriented interventions.},

Journal = {WORK-A JOURNAL OF PREVENTION ASSESSMENT \& REHABILITATION},
Year = {2013},
Volume = {45},
Number = {4},
Pages = {553-563},
Abstract = {BACKGROUND: Participation in the workforce is one of the main social
evaluations all individuals are subject to in modern society. Public
policies supporting social justice for persons with disabilities have
gained prominence in several nations in the last decades and it is
critical to ensure that those who want to work are afforded the
opportunity to do so. Meanwhile they remain under represented in the
labor market within the contemporary world.
OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to identify facilitators or
barriers faced by people with disability within the workforce.
PARTICIPANTS: Ten workers with disabilities from various companies and
performing diverse professional job functions participated in
semi-structured interviews.
METHOD: The Discourse of the Collective Subject method was employed as a
means to organize and analyze qualitative data of a verbal nature.
RESULTS: Reasonable work conditions, adjustments, and accommodations
facilitate performance and job retention. Social participation through
employment leads to social recognition and the feeling of citizenship.
On the other hand prejudice, unequal opportunities, workers' low
educational attainment, and lack of training opportunities lead to
employment exclusion.
CONCLUSION: To include people with disabilities in the workforce, it is
necessary to focus on attaining equal levels of education, an unbiased
and inclusive process for entering the labor market, and continued
management of disability issues within the workplace. Together, these
elements create equal opportunities for workers with disabilities to
advance in their careers, which in turn enables participation, social
recognition and guaranties their rights as citizens.},

Journal = {WORLDWIDE HOSPITALITY AND TOURISM THEMES},
Year = {2020},
Volume = {12},
Number = {3, SI},
Pages = {261-274},
Month = {MAY 1},
Abstract = {Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to ascertain the level of alignment of
tourism investment in Jamaica with the Sustainable Development Goals
(SDGs), and their economic, social, cultural and environmental impacts
on the country.
Design/methodology/approach
This study is interpretive, combining both quantitative and qualitative
research methods. This comprises primary data; collected from interviews
of tourism policy makers and experts; and analysis of secondary research
data on tourism investments made by government agencies and other
organizations that generate and/or provide official statistical data.
Interviews are conducted in a semi-structured, open-ended format that
enable respondents to provide insights and expound on ideas shared.
Findings
The findings reveal that some SDGs have greater alignment with some of
the targets of the SDGs than others. The results proffer a possible
reason for this; this could be owing to the priorities of the Ministry
of Tourism as it relates to investment in tourism development -
investment in improved infrastructure is high on the priority of the
Ministry, and therefore reflects better alignment to SDG 9, which
relates to infrastructure.
Research limitations/implications
This study provides a backdrop from which to assess Jamaica's investment
activities in furtherance of inclusive and sustainable tourism. The
findings also inform decision makers - whether they continue on the
current trajectory, or in facilitating adjustments to enable tourism
investments to better align with the SDGs. The main limitation lies in
the fact that the research findings may only be transferable and
generalized to the extent that other jurisdictions bear similar
macroeconomic characteristics to Jamaica.
Practical implications
This study lends itself to opportunities for future research in other
similar small island developing states. It also contributes to the body
of knowledge on investments that work to further the aims of the SDGs
and provides a base from which to conduct further research.
Social implications
The social implications of tourism investment closely align with SDGs
including tourism that is more inclusive and sustainable; that reduces
income inequalities; that is beneficial to all Jamaicans, whether
directly or indirectly; and that contributes to the development of human
capital.
Originality/value
This study evaluates investment alignment with the SDGs in relation to
Destination Jamaica. No previous work has been done to explore this
relationship; hence, this research is pivotal in informing decision
makers and continuing research in this area.},

Abstract = {One of Andy Furlong's(1) abiding concerns was to show how the problems
of working-class youth are often, straightforwardly, the outcome of
inequalities in employment opportunities. On rarer occasions, however,
this explanation fits less well. Some young people grow up in families
where poverty seems more deeply embedded and inherent to those families.
Here, old ideas about a cultural `underclass' can be tempting to
politicians and policy makers. Our qualitative research, with 20
families living in extremely deprived U.K. neighbourhoods, showed that
neither a simple lack of job opportunities nor `cultures of
worklessness' explained why hardship persisted for them. Our argument is
that circumstances which appear to fit with the idea of an
inter-generational, cultural `underclass', in fact, have their
provenance in a semi-permanent constellation of external socio-economic
pressures bearing on successive generations of families over decades.
Examples did include a shared context of declining job opportunities but
extended to a contracting and disciplinary Welfare State, punitive
criminal justice systems, poor-quality education and the physical
decline of working-class neighbourhoods. We take one example - the
destructive impact of local drug markets - to uncover the complex,
obscure processes that compound the disadvantage faced by working-class
young adults and their families over generations.},

for whom?},
Journal = {GENDER WORK AND ORGANIZATION},
Year = {2018},
Volume = {25},

Month = {MAR},
Abstract = {This research examines how the framing of the business case for gender
equality (BCGE) in the European Union (EU) translates in the Irish
national context and how different actors have engaged with this framing
exercise. A central concern is how gender knowledge is mobilized by
different actors as they compete to shape discourse, policy and practice
on gender equality. We draw upon theoretical work that has interrogated
the relationship between neoliberalism, gender inequality and feminist
mobilization before reviewing critical assessments of the BCGE. The
primary focus of this paper, having mapped this theoretical debate, is
to analyse the role different Irish actors and organizations play in
reproducing key frames and to examine the ambiguous or ambivalent
engagement of different interest groups with this agenda. In turn, we
assess the degree to which the agenda enables or disables structural
change in access to power. We explore three case studies through which
the BCGE in the EU was reinforced, adapted, resisted and rejected in our
discussions, and draw out the constraints, opportunities and outcomes in
each. Our first case study, which sets the national context for the
following case studies, reviews how the Irish state interacts with the
EU to frame gender equality and how it partners with key actors (state
feminism and femocrats, private actors and feminist actors) to advance
the BCGE. The second case study examines the role of the leading Irish
feminist civil society organization (CSO) in the Women on Boards
campaign that reinforces the dominant instrumental discourse associated
with EU and national framing of gender parity on boards, and the
ambiguity of feminists about this campaign. The third case study
examines how Irish financial elites symbolically engage with gender
parity on boards while simultaneously seeking to veto the implementation
of gender representation targets proposed in the EU Capital Directive.
It is clear that a degree of instrumentality informs most actors'
framing of BCGE. We also find evidence of how power actors and financial
elites, while rhetorically engaging in BCGE and employing it when
relevant to develop reputational capital, will seek ultimately to
protect the status quo rejecting the governance benefits implied in
BCGE. Ultimately, our cases illustrate the potential of the BCGE to
support the inclusion of women in governance structures yet demonstrate
that engaging with BCGE is perilous for some.},

Abstract = {Ageism in the workplace can have significant implications for older

campaign included posters and pop-up advertising of a fake aging cream
and research on attitudes toward aging and understanding the ``too

diversity policies often do not include age considerations, and
understanding the factors that lead to ageism may allow for the
development of strategies to help combat it. Age-diverse workplaces may
gain competitive advantage by learning to harness the power of

exploratory analysis for Turkey},

Volume = {14},
Number = {3},
Pages = {446-480},
Month = {JUN 23},
Abstract = {Purpose This paper aims to offer an extensive empirical case study
analysis by investigating housing affordability in Turkey as a whole,
and in Istanbul, Ankara and Izmir over the period of 2006 and 2017 and
its sub-periods. Design/methodology/approach This paper develops a
theoretically informed model to assess affordability using complementary
methodologies in quantitative analysis. This study seeks to help outline
the nature of the problem in aggregate level and in the cities; it also
seeks to offer lessons about how to address measurement and modelling
challenges in emergent market contexts by constructing
aggregate-/city-level housing cost-to-income (HCI) ratio, adjusted HCI
(AHCI) ratio, housing affordability index (HAI) and effective HAI
sensitive to multiple calculation methodologies and alternative data set
involving income distribution and poverty tranches. Findings HCI, AHCI,
HAI and EHAI models generally suggest the parallel results: housing is
not affordable in Turkey and in Istanbul, Ankara and Izmir except for
the highest income groups. The evidence implies that besides
macroeconomic instabilities, distorted interest rates and short average
mortgage maturity, poverty and unequal income/wealth distributions are
the main reasons of the Turkish housing affordability crisis
specifically heightened in metropolitan areas such as in Istanbul.
Research limitations/implications The evidence provides an insight on
housing affordability problems in Turkey. However, small sample size and
short observation period create a limit for generalisation of the
findings. Further analysis would be required to illustrate how housing
affordability changes in different cities of Turkey in a longer period.
Practical implications By using empirical approaches, this paper helps
to understand how serious housing affordability problems of Turkey in
aggregate and urban levels. This evidence helps to explain declining
ownership ratio in low-income groups and in urban areas. Reliable
explanations on existing housing crisis of Turkey also help to develop
affordable housing policies. Social implications Declining housing
affordability and homeownership ratio may translate as the rising
housing inequality and insecurity among Turkish households. Moreover,
better affordability values of higher income groups suggest that
existing inequality, economic/social segmentation, and hence social
tension between high and low income groups, may further increase. In
this respect, the authors suggest socially important policies such as
reducing income/wealth inequalities and increasing affordable housing
supply. Originality/value This study offers a detailed empirical case
study analysis that can be used as an exemplar of how to overcome data
constraints in other evolving housing market contexts. This study sets
out an approach overcoming the challenges of measurement. This study
also combines existing methodological approaches with the modified
variables to provide a more realistic aggregate-/urban-level housing
affordability picture. The authors calculated some parts of housing
affordability ratio and index series using discretionary income, minimum
wage and effective minimum wage to show the variations of different
measurement approaches. Some constructed series are also sensitive to
income distribution and poverty thresholds. Collectively, this empirical
approach, developed by using emerging market data, provides a
contribution to the literature.},

Pages = {199-213},
Abstract = {In this essay, I present the concept of cosmopolitan law by Kant as the
law that considers the human being as a citizen of the world, regardless
of her/his state. I analyze how international law currently protects
freedom formally at the cosmopolitan level in the case of two
instruments: the individual petition on human rights and labor rights
issues and the individual responsibility for international crimes (which
Kant had in mind with his concept of ``cosmopolitan law ``). I then
analyze how the protection of freedom in two international fora requires
the development of specific policies for the protection of certain
groups, which is largely motivated by monitoring the work of these
forums by NGOs and other civil associations. From this analysis, I show
that the Kantian concept of cosmopolitan law must be intrinsically
linked to questions of identity (analysis of social inequalities and how
roles and social stereotypes are constructed) and to the concept of
cosmopolitan citizenship as a practice of cross-border associations in
political struggles (rather than concepts such as ``world society{''} or
``collective consciousness{''}). A necessary path to follow is the
connection, developed by Professor Leonel Ribeiro dos Santos, between
cosmopolitanism and the cosmos.},

Abstract = {BackgroundWith the unanimous approval of the Intersectoral Global Action
Plan on epilepsy and other neurological disorders by the World Health
Organization in May 2022, there are strong imperatives to work towards
equitable neurological care.AimsUsing epilepsy as an entry point to
other neurologic conditions, we discuss disparities faced by
marginalized groups including racial/ethnic minorities, Americans living
in rural communities, and Americans with low socioeconomic
status.Materials and MethodsThe National Institute on Minority Health
Disparities Research Framework (NIMHD) was used to conduct a narrative
review through a health equity lens to create an adapted framework for
epilepsy and propose approaches to working towards equitable epilepsy
and neurological care.ResultsIn this narrative review, we identified
priority populations (racial and ethnic minority, rural-residing, and
low socioeconomic status persons with epilepsy) and outcomes (likelihood
to see a neurologist, be prescribed antiseizure medications, undergo
epilepsy surgery, and be hospitalized) to explore disparities in
epilepsy and guide our focused literature search using PubMed. In an
adapted NIMHD framework, we examined individual, interpersonal,
community, and societal level contributors to health disparities across
five domains: (1) behavioral, (2) physical/built environment, (3)
sociocultural, (4) environment, and (5) healthcare system. We take a
health equity approach to propose initiatives that target modifiable
factors that impact disparities and advocate for sustainable change for
priority populations.DiscussionTo improve equity, healthcare providers
and relevant societal stakeholders can advocate for improved care
coordination, referrals for epilepsy surgery, access to care, health
informatics interventions, and education (i.e., to providers, patients,
and communities). More broadly, stakeholders can advocate for reforms in
medical education, and in the American health insurance
landscape.ConclusionsEquitable healthcare should be a priority in
neurological care.},

Abstract = {Objective To investigate the effectiveness of fatherhood programs
targeting unmarried, low-income, nonresident fathers. Background
Programs for unmarried, nonresident, and low-income fathers increased in
number and scope over the past decade. Programs for fathers have
typically targeted five broad areas: positive father involvement,
parenting, co-parenting, employment, and child support payment. Method
We conducted a systematic search for published and unpublished
evaluations of fathering programs targeting unmarried, never married,
and low-income fathers. We identified 25 reports with 30 independent
studies. Of these, 21 employed a control-treatment design, and nine
employed a one-group/pre-post design. Results These programs produce
small but statistically significant effects (d = .099,p < .01). We found
that only father involvement (d = .114,p < .05), parenting (d = .110,p <
.01), and co-parenting (d = .167,p < .05) were significantly affected;
the strongest effect size was in co-parenting. Unfortunately, these
programs did not significantly influence father employment and economic
well-being, nor did they significantly impact father payment of child
support. Conclusion Although programs for low-income, unmarried,
nonresident fathers have a small statistically significant effect,
evaluation work may increase the impact of these programs. Implications.
There is a continued need for evaluation focused on unmarried,
nonresident, low-income fathers. There is also need for improved
statistical reporting, reports of attrition, assessment of child
outcomes, observational measures of outcomes, and better assessment of
moderators, such as father age, program location, child developmental
stage, multipartner fertility, and other barriers to father involvement.},

Title = {Work integrated learning resources for students with disabilities: are
post-secondary institutions in Canada supporting this demographic to be
career ready?},
Journal = {HIGHER EDUCATION SKILLS AND WORK-BASED LEARNING},
Year = {2021},
Volume = {11},
Number = {1},
Pages = {125-143},
Month = {JAN 26},
Abstract = {Purpose The Government of Canada is adopting the pedagogical practice of
Work Integrated Learning (WIL) to help youth develop the career ready
skills needed to transition from school to work. As a result, colleges
and universities are receiving funding to grow academic programs that
link theoretical learning with practical work experience. However, there
is limited research about the resources available to students with
disabilities who engage in WIL. From an environmental scan of disability
supports for WIL on 55 Canadian post-secondary institutions' websites
and survey results from WIL professionals we ask: Do post-secondary
institutions in Canada help students with disabilities become career
ready? The data reveals that 40\% of schools have no reference to
disability services for any career related activities and only 18\%
refer to disability supports for WIL. Survey respondents report they are
not being trained nor have access to resources to support students with
disabilities in WIL. The authors therefore recommend changes to public
policy and resource allocation to ensure colleges and universities
provide disability services for all WIL programs, train practitioners
about career related disability management, and hire professionals who
specialize in supporting students with disabilities in WIL.
Design/methodology/approach The authors conducted an environmental scan
of 55 Canadian post-secondary schools with a student population of
10,000 or more and identified services and resources publicly advertised
online for students with disabilities in relation to employment and/or
WIL activities. From this broad search, codes were developed based on
general themes found in the recorded information, such as the location
of information and the type of resources and services advertised for
students with disabilities. During the environmental scan, the authors
also collected names and emails of people listed as working in career
and/or WIL departments who received an anonymous survey about their
experiences working with students with disabilities. Findings As the
Government of Canada expands WIL to improve labour market outcomes for
youth, the research findings of the authors provide valuable evidence
that post-secondary institutions are not supporting youth with
disabilities to become career ready. Surprisingly, 40\% of
post-secondary institutions have no reference to disability supports for
career related activities and only 18\% reference supports available for
engaging in WIL on their websites. In addition, WIL practitioners are
not receiving the resources nor training to support this demographic to
transition from school to work. This research can provide direction on
resource allocation; specifically, the need for disability related
supports and dedicated professionals for students who engage in WIL
programs in higher education. Research limitations/implications A
limitation of the methodology in scanning public sites is that
universities and colleges could have services or supports advertised on
sites that can only be viewed by the faculty, staff and students from
that school. Thus, it is possible that employment information for
students with disabilities is available for those with login privileges.
The authors attempted to mitigate this limitation by collecting survey
responses about programs and services from WIL practitioners who work at
the schools. The authors also did not measure marketing of services on
social media platforms (e.g. Facebook, Instagram).
Another limitation is that the WIL practitioner survey results are based
on their perceptions.
The sample size was not randomized, nor can the authors confirm it is a
representative sample of all WIL practitioners in Canada. Practical
implications As countries continue to grapple with how to deal with the
intersectionality of disability on an already disadvantaged demographic
in the labour market, they must ensure that students with disabilities
have access to career ready activities while in school. The authors
therefore recommend public policy and resource allocation, not only in
Canada but at a global level, that ensures post-secondary institutions:
(1) create disability management programs and resources for all WIL and
career activities; (2) hire dedicated professionals who specialize in
working with students with disabilities in WIL; and (3) provide
mandatory training for WIL practitioners on how to support students with
disabilities in programs that develop their career ready skills. Social
implications Preparing students with disabilities to be career ready
when they graduate will benefit the Canadian economy. This wasted human
capital not only negatively impacts a labour market with an aging
demographic, it affects social service programs as Canadians with
disabilities are one-third times more likely to live in poverty compared
to Canadians without disabilities (Canadian Survey on Disability, 2017).
The G20 report also stated that if employment rates for people with
disabilities who are able to work were the same as for people without
disabilities, economies around the world could increase their GDP by
3-7\% (ILO and OECD, 2018). Originality/value There is no research in
Canada to date that provides a national overview of the services in
higher education advertised to support students with disabilities in
WIL.},

Abstract = {Background Zambia experienced a major decline in under-five mortality
rates (U5MR), with one of the fastest declines in socio-economic
disparities in sub-Saharan Africa in the last two decades. We aimed to
understand the extent to which, and how, Zambia has reduced
socio-economic inequalities in U5MR since 2000.
Methods Using nationally-representative data from Zambia Demographic
Health Surveys (2001/2, 2007, 2013/14 and 2018), we examined trends and
levels of inequalities in under-five mortality, intervention coverage,
household water and sanitation, and fertility. This analysis was
integrated with an in-depth review of key policy and program documents
relevant to improving child survival in Zambia between 1990 and 2020.
Results The under-five mortality rate (U5MR) declined from 168 to 64
deaths per 1000 live births between 2001/2 and 2018 ZDHS rounds,
particularly in the post-neonatal period. There were major reductions in
U5MR inequalities between wealth, education and urban-rural residence
groups. Yet reduced gaps between wealth groups in estimated absolute
income or education levels did not simultaneously occur. Inequalities
reduced markedly for coverage of reproductive, maternal, newborn and
child health (RMNCH), malaria and human immunodeficiency virus
interventions, but less so for water or sanitation and fertility levels.
Several policy and health systems drivers were identified for reducing
RMNCH inequalities: policy commitment to equity in RMNCH; financing with
a focus on disadvantaged groups; multisectoral partnerships and
horizontal programming; expansion of infrastructure and human resources
for health; and involvement of community stakeholders and service
providers.
Conclusion Zambia's major progress in reducing inequalities in child
survival between the poorest and richest people appeared to be notably
driven by government policies and programs that centrally valued equity,
despite ongoing gaps in absolute income and education levels. Future
work should focus on sustaining these gains, while targeting families
that have been left behind to achieve the sustainable development goal

Abstract = {The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are a set of targets that the
UN hopes all countries will reach by 2030 broadly spanning the range of
health, education, racial inequalities, environmental protections, and
several other fields. Among these goals includes (Goal 3.2) an aim for
all countries to reduce Neonatal Mortality Rates (NMR) to 12 per 1,000
live births. Without properly allocating resources to see the most
dramatic shifts in NMR, many countries may be at risk of not meeting
these ambitious goals. However, there are many factors which may
influence national NMR, and while much previous work has been done to
identify factors that influence NMR usually on a nation by nation basis,
these factors can tend to vary. The goal of this study is to find
factors that consistently lead, by changing them, to a change in NMR for
many countries, in order to better inform health policy and resource
allocations to the medical sector.
This study will serve as an exploratory data analysis step for future
studies regarding the impact of several health indicators on NMR per
country. Cross-sectional data from the year 2014 were used for this
Exploratory Data Analysis (EDA). To identify indicators that showed
significant differences between the countries with high NMR and
countries with low NMR, Mann-Whitney U Tests were performed. The p-value
for each mean comparison was less than the 0.01 significance level. We
have built a K-means clustering model to observe the variables'
contribution to NMR, as well as a K-means clustering model to observe
the same data's contributions to Gross Domestic Product (GDP), to see if
both NMR and GDP follow similar trends across our target countries. The
clustering for NMR groups of countries showed mostly separate clusters,
while the clustering for the same data for the GDP classes showed very
little separation, as the most points from each class all occupied the
same cluster. To determine the actual amount that each indicator
contributed to the data, Principle Component Analysis (PCA) was
performed to understand the strongest contributions to the total data
variance. The results of this study will serve to highlight the most
important areas which must be improved in order to fulfill the
Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) by the end of the next decade and to
contribute to future studies that utilize longitudinal or more recent
data.},

Title = {Factors influencing participation among adults aging with long-term
physical disability},
Journal = {DISABILITY AND HEALTH JOURNAL},
Year = {2022},

Month = {JAN},
Abstract = {Background: People aging with long-term physical disability (AwPD)
experience barriers to participation and independent living. There are
currently limited evidence-based interventions that address issues
regarding participation for people AwPD. Objective: This study examined
factors influencing participation in personal and life activities among
people AwPD to inform future interventions. Methods: A cross-sectional
study within an ongoing, community-based cohort study of participation
was conducted. A purposive sample of people AwPD aged 45e65, living with
a physical disability for at least five years, and who speak English was
recruited through disability organizations, aging organizations, and
social media. Participants answered open-ended questions about what
supports they needed to successfully participate in nine activity
categories derived from the Health and Retirement Study participation
items (e.g., employment, community leisure). A content analysis was
conducted using NVivo to categorize responses, and member checking
occurred with four additional people AwPD. Results: A total of 215
participants completed the survey. Eight categories of factors emerged
from the data: physical environment factors, social factors, symptoms,
economic factors, policy factors, body structure and functions, mental
and emotional state, and temporal factors. Participant responses
illuminated a combination of environmental and individual factors.
Physical effects of disability and accelerated aging, such as pain and
fatigue, paired with environmental factors, such as accessibility of
transportation, were reported as influencing participation. Conclusions:
People AwPD experience a range of factors that substantially impact
their ability to remain independent and participate in society. By
identifying barriers to participation, new interventions addressing
these barriers may be developed, resulting in more effective service
provision, enhanced participation in personal and life activities, and
improved health and well-being. (c) 2021 Elsevier Inc. All rights

Abstract = {Certification programs seek to promote decent work in global
agriculture, yet little is known about their gender standards and
implications for female workers, who are often the most disadvantaged.
This study outlines the gender standard domains of major agricultural
certifications, showing how some programs (Fair Trade USA, Rainforest)
prioritize addressing gender equality in employment and others
(Fairtrade International, UTZ) incorporate wider gender rights. To
illuminate the implications of gender standards in practice, I analyze
Fairtrade certification and worker experience on certified flower
plantations in Ecuador, drawing on a qualitative and quantitative field
research study. (1) I show how Fairtrade seeks to bolster the wellbeing
of female workers, addressing their workplace needs via equal
employment, treatment, and remuneration standards and their reproductive
needs via maternity leave and childcare services. My research
demonstrates that for female workers, addressing family responsibilities
is critical, since they shape women's ability to take paid jobs, their
employment needs, and their overall wellbeing. (2) I show how Fairtrade
seeks to bolster the rights of women workers through individual and
collective capacity building standards. My findings reveal how promoting
women's individual empowerment serves as a precondition for collective
empowerment, and how targeting traditional labor rights is insufficient
for empowering female workers, since their strategic choices are
curtailed largely outside the workplace. While Fairtrade certification
bolsters the wellbeing and rights of female workers in and beyond the
workplace, much still needs to be done before women can claim their
rights as workers and citizens.},

Journal = {EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF SOCIAL SECURITY},

Volume = {18},

Abstract = {Until recently, social assistance and minimum income benefits have
received relatively little attention in the comparative welfare state
literature. Relying on two new indicators, this paper examines the
development of minimum income benefits across 26 EU and other OECD
countries. The real benefit level, the first indicator, is relatively
easy to interpret, but international comparisons require adjustments for
exchange rates and purchasing power, which can introduce variation that
is not related to underlying policy changes. In the second indicator,
the net minimum income replacement rate, this disadvantage is cancelled
out by construction. Our analysis shows that real benefit levels
increased in most countries, whilst replacement rates declined on
average. A subsequent qualitative analysis of the changes in the benefit
levels confirms that the increased benefit levels reflect policy changes
and that the lower replacement rates do not reflect benefit cuts, but
relatively larger wage increases. Such a widening gap between benefit
levels and wages is in line with the policy agenda of `making work pay'.
Finally, by analysing the extent to which changes in quantitative
indicators reflect actual policy changes, this paper seeks to make a
methodological contribution to the ongoing debate on the `dependent
variable problem' in the welfare state literature.},

Title = {Interventions to reduce inequalities in avoidable hospital admissions:
explanatory framework and systematic review protocol},
Journal = {BMJ OPEN},
Year = {2020},
Volume = {10},
Number = {7},
Abstract = {Introduction Internationally there is pressure to contain costs due to
rising numbers of hospital admissions. Alongside age, socioeconomic
disadvantage is the strongest risk factor for avoidable hospital
admission. This equity-focussed systematic review is required for
policymakers to understand what has been shown to work to reduce
inequalities in hospital admissions, what does not work and where the
current gaps in the evidence-base are. Methods and analysis An initial
framework shows how interventions are hypothesised to reduce
socioeconomic inequalities in avoidable hospital admissions. Studies
will be included if the intervention focusses exclusively on
socioeconomically disadvantaged populations or if the study reports
differential effects by socioeconomic status (education, income,
occupation, social class, deprivation, poverty or an area-based proxy
for deprivation derived from place of residence) with respect to
hospital admission or readmission (overall or condition-specific for
those classified as ambulatory care sensitive). Studies involving
individuals of any age, undertaken in OECD (Organisation for Economic
Co-operation and Development) countries, published from 2000 to
29(th)February 2020 in any language will be included. Electronic
searches will include MEDLINE, Embase, CINAHL, Cochrane CENTRAL and the
Web of Knowledge platform. Electronic searches will be supplemented with
full citation searches of included studies, website searches and
retrieval of relevant unpublished information. Study inclusion, data
extraction and quality appraisal will be conducted by two reviewers.
Narrative synthesis will be conducted and also meta-analysis where
possible. The main analysis will examine the effectiveness of
interventions at reducing socioeconomic inequalities in hospital
admissions. Interventions will be characterised by their domain of
action and approach to addressing inequalities. For included studies,
contextual information on where, for whom and how these interventions
are organised, implemented and delivered will be examined where
possible. Ethics and dissemination Ethical approval was not required for
this protocol. The research will be disseminated via peer-reviewed
publication, conferences and an open-access policy-orientated paper.

Title = {Workers' health and social relations in Italy},
Journal = {JOURNAL OF ECONOMIC STUDIES},
Year = {2016},
Volume = {43},
Number = {5},
Pages = {835-862},
Abstract = {Purpose - The purpose of this paper is to investigate whether social
relations are associated with the health of workers. It uses two types
of health status measures - self-reported and more objective health -
and it considers two types of social relationships: individual social
relations, measured through the frequency of meetings with friends; and
contextual social relations, the average frequency with which people
meet friends at the community level.
Design/methodology/approach - A probit model is estimated from the
worker sample accounting for the possibility of selecting individuals in
the labour market (selection equation). Then expanded probit models
(including inverse Mills ratio) are used on both self-reported and more
objective health measures using new data from an income and living
conditions survey carried out in 2006 by the Italian Statistics Office.
Robustness checks are employed to deal with possible problems when
interpreting the results.
Findings - The study finds that social relations are correlated with
health status of workers with differences among health outcomes. Social
relations at the individual level are positively correlated with
self-perceived health (SPH), negatively associated with chronic
condition (CC) but not related to limitations in daily activities.
Contextual social relations are negatively linked with CC and
limitations in daily activities but not correlated with SPH.
Research limitations/implications - Although the results are consistent
with the argument that individual and contextual social relations
influence workers' health, the author cannot prove causality.
Social implications - Improving the health of workers could reduce
health inequalities and could increase work performance. The implication
at a macro-economic level of an improvement in the health conditions of
workers is relevant in Italy, where the level of labour productivity is
low compared to the other developed countries (OECD, 2013). Policy
makers should consider the benefits, both at social and economic level,
of public policies designed to improve the social and physical
infrastructure of social relations.
Originality/value - This paper is the first to relate individual and
contextual social relations simultaneously to workers' health. Moreover,
it makes several other contributions to this area: it control for
unobserved worker heterogeneity; it uses both subjective self-reported
health as well as a more objective measure of health based on CC and
limitations in activities of daily living; it adopts a multilevel
approach to examine in the same framework the individual and contextual
relationship of social relations with individual health status of
workers, in so doing, filling a gap in the literature on social capital
and public health.},

Abstract = {Collective bargaining has served as a cornerstone institution for
democracy, a mechanism for increasing workers' incomes, improving
working conditions and reducing inequality, a means for ensuring fair
employment relations and a source of workplace innovation. However, the
number of workers belonging to trade unions has declined in many
countries and global economic integration has tipped bargaining power in
favour of employers. This paper reviews recent trends and developments
in respect of collective bargaining. It examines the evolution of
collective bargaining institutions in different regions of the world. It
highlights the manner in which collective bargaining structures have
adapted to competitive pressures and the increasing coordination of
bargaining practices both within and across borders. In a survey of
collective bargaining agendas, the authors note the increasing diversity
of issues on the bargaining agenda. They highlight particularly
innovative practices in respect of the application of collective
agreements to non-standard workers and the role that collective
bargaining played in mitigating the effects of the recent economic
crisis on workers and enterprises. They argue that the support of public
policy is essential to promote and sustain collective bargaining. These
developments and the ongoing challenges facing collective bargaining
present a number of issues for future research.},

Abstract = {In the paper the socio-demographic characteristics of persons with
disabilities in Bulgaria are presented. The trends of change of the
indicators are analysed: type and degree of disability, age, gender,
educational and qualification level, economic activity, regional
distribution, marital status. Based on these characteristics the profile
of persons with disabilities in different regions of the country can be
defined and also the specifics of their needs in order to implement an
adequate, effective and sustainable health and social policy in
accordance with the modern concepts for long-term care. The analysis
outlines a clear upward trend in the number of people with disabilities
and the level of permanently reduced work capacity among the people at
the age of 16 and older; an increase of the severity of the disabilities
and the risk of invalidation with age advance; a higher number of women
with disabilities per 1000 people compared with men; an increase in the
number of people with disabilities living in cities, but higher levels
of invalidation among the rural population; education inequality on the
ground of the indication ``disability{''}, being a prerequisite for a
lower educational and qualification level; a low level of economic
activity. This socio-demographic structure poses a number of challenges
to the social and health systems for receiving care adequate to the
needs and providing a good quality of life to the persons with
permanently reduced work capacity. The organization and the capacity of
services provided must correspond to the needs of the persons with
disabilities; guarantee the receiving of care necessary to preserve
their autonomy and dignity; enable access to high quality services to
all, regardless of their age, gender, residence and financial status.},

Abstract = {Carers and people with disabilities are two disadvantaged groups at risk
of social exclusion. Work is an important route to social inclusion, but
carers and people with disabilities are under-represented in the work
force. The present paper reports key findings from a new study that
evaluated People into Employment (PIE), a pilot employment project in
the north-east of England designed to support people with disabilities,
carers and former carers in gaining mainstream work. The study aimed to
identify what clients, partner agencies and employers perceived to be
PIE's most important services, its strengths and areas where there was
scope for further development. The study collected quantitative and
qualitative data at the mid-point and at the end of the project through
two questionnaire surveys, and interviews with PIE clients, the project
development officer, partner agencies and employers. Drawing on the
`pathway model', the findings show that PIE's interventions included
mobilising, matching, mediating and supporting activities. Key
ingredients in PIE's success include: tailor-made job-search activities
and training; adjusting the pace at which people move towards sustained
employment; recognising and responding to the differing needs of people
with disabilities, carers and former carers; confidence boosting;
accompanying clients to job interviews; good job matching; and ongoing
practical and emotional support for both clients and employers.
Rudimentary calculations suggest that the cost per job to the project is
less than the cost per job for large national projects. Overall, these
findings illustrate how access to employment via flexible job-search
services geared up to the local labour market can successfully promote
social inclusion for carers and people with disabilities.},

Abstract = {Objective: To provide an update on disability and outline potential
barriers and facilitators for implementation of the World Health
Organization Global Disability Action Plan (GDAP) in Pakistan.
Methods: A 6-day workshop at the Armed Forces Institute of
Rehabilitation Medicine, Islamabad facilitated by rehabilitation staff
from Royal Melbourne Hospital, Australia. Local healthcare professionals
(n = 33) from medical rehabilitation facilities identified challenges in
service provision, education and attitudes/approaches to people with
disabilities, using consensus agreement for objectives listed in the
GDAP.
Results: Respondents agreed on the following challenges in implementing
the GDAP: shortage of skilled work-force, fragmented healthcare system,
poor coordination between acute and subacute healthcare sectors, limited
health services infrastructure and funding, lack of disability data,
poor legislation, lack of guidelines and accreditation standards,
limited awareness/knowledge of disability, socio-cultural perceptions
and geo-topographical issues. The main facilitators included: need for
governing/leadership bodies, engagement of healthcare professionals and
institutions using a multi-sectoral approach, new partnerships and
strategic collaboration, provision of financial and technical
assistance, future policy direction, research and development.
Conclusion: The barriers to implementing the GDAP identified here
highlight the emerging priorities and challenges in the development of
rehabilitation medicine and GDAP implementation in a developing country.
The GDAP summary actions were useful planning tools to improve access
and strengthen rehabilitation services.},

Abstract = {Objective: To understand the experiences of veterans with disabilities
and caregiving needs who use Department of Veterans Affairs (VA)
vocational and education services, including Supported Employment, the
Post-9/11 GI Bill, and Vocational Rehabilitation and Employment. Method:
We conducted 26 joint semistructured interviews with post-9/11 veterans
who had used at least one of three vocational and education services,
and their family members who were enrolled in a VA Caregiver Support
Program. Results: VA vocational and education services helped veterans
with disabilities transition from the military into civilian life by
providing skills and incremental exposure to engaging in everyday life
tasks. Veteran motivation, caregiver support, and engaged staff at VA
and academic institutions were key drivers of veteran success. Veterans
who experienced challenges cited the following barriers: health
problems, concerns about benefits loss if they became employed, and VA
and academic programs that did not accommodate the needs of
nontraditional veteran learners. Conclusions and Implications for
Practice: There is a need to bolster VA vocational and educational
services for veterans with disabilities in several domains, including
modifying the roles of frontline staff and increasing communication
between vocational counselors and health care teams to better
accommodate the veteran's health-related limitations. Providing a
vocational rehabilitation navigator to help veterans identify
opportunities within VA and work/educational settings that are a good
match for the veteran's goals and abilities could also be beneficial
across vocational and educational services.},

Title = {Employment outcomes and experiences of people with seeing disability in
Canada: An analysis of the Canadian Survey on Disability 2017},
Journal = {PLOS ONE},
Year = {2021},
Volume = {16},
Number = {11},
Month = {NOV 29},
Abstract = {Background
Many individuals with disabilities face barriers to meaningful
employment. Legislation has been put in place to ensure employment
equity for individuals with disabilities in Canada. However, little is
known about the employment profile and experiences of people with seeing
disabilities.
Objectives
The objectives of our research study were to explore the employment
rates of people with seeing disabilities in Canada, the factors
associated with being employed, and supports and barriers that affect
their work participation.
Methods
We used the nationally representative data from the Canadian Survey on
Disability (CSD) 2017, collected by Statistics Canada. The CSD is a
national cross-sectional survey of Canadians 15 years of age and above
who face a functional limitation due to a health-related condition,
representing more than 6 million (n = 6,246,640) Canadians. Our analyses
focused on people who reported having a seeing disability. A subset of
the complete dataset was created, focusing on individuals with a seeing
disability. Weighted descriptive analyses were performed using SPSS.
Multivariate logistic regression analyses were conducted for individuals
between 25-64 years of age to identify predictors of employment.
Results
Out of the estimated 892,220 working-age adults (25-64 years) with a
seeing disability who were represented by the survey, 54\% were
employed, 6\% were unemployed and 40\% were not in the labour force.
Early onset of seeing disability (OR: 1.33; 95\% CI: 1.32-1.35), less
severe seeing disability (OR: 1.51; 95\% CI: 1.49-1.53), education above
high school (OR: 2.00; 95\% CI: 1.97-2.02) and daily use of the internet
(OR: 2.46; 95\% CI: 2.41-2.51) were positively related with employment.
The top three employment accommodations that were needed and were made
available included: modified work hours (45\%); work from home (38.5\%)
and a modified workstation (37\%). The top three needed but least
available accommodations were technical aids (14\%), communication aids
(22\%) and a computer with specialized software or adaptation (27\%).
Overall, 26\% reported that an accommodation was required but was not
made available by the employer. While 75\% of individuals with a seeing
disability were out of the labour force due to their condition, the
remaining identified barriers that prevented them from working which
included (top 3): (i) too few jobs available (20\%); (ii) inadequate
training/ experience (19\%), (iii) past attempts at finding employment
were unsuccessful (19\%).
Conclusion
Adults with seeing disability in Canada experience lower labour force
participation than the general population. Rigorous programs are
required to assist them with the job search, job retraining and
workplace accommodations. It is important for governments to improve
efforts towards inclusive education and develop strategies that promote
digital literacy of employees and job seekers with visual impairments.
Although accessibility legislations have been put in place, programs
should be established that provide accessibility solutions for various
employers, enabling them to hire individuals with different abilities.},

Abstract = {Purpose:To explore how vocational rehabilitation (VR) is currently
delivered for individuals with acquired brain injury (ABI) across
multiple stakeholder groups and identify areas for improvement in
service delivery using the Consolidated Framework for Implementation
Research (CFIR). Methods:Seven focus groups were conducted with
rehabilitation clinicians; outreach providers, insurers/regulators, VR
providers and disability employment service providers (n = 44)
experienced in VR of individuals with ABI. All groups were
audio-recorded and transcribed verbatim. Data analysis was guided by the
CFIR constructs. Results:All stakeholder groups believed they offered
quality VR interventions given available resources and legislation, but
many clients fell through the `cracks'. Themes that were identified
included: a) number and complexity of systems supporting VR; b)
fractured communication across systems, c) lack of knowledge by both
stakeholders and clients in navigating systems, d) lack of expertise in
supporting the vocational needs of clients with ABI and e) perceived
limited awareness of ABI by employers. Conclusion:Stakeholders and
clients need support to navigate Australia's complex VR pathways.
Limited specialist ABI clinicians, VR providers and disability
employment services were identified as barriers for effective VR.
Domains of the CFIR were appropriate for organising and understanding
how VR is delivered.},

Month = {DEC},
Abstract = {Objective: This study's objective was to determine the efficacy of
benefits counseling in a clinical trial. There has been concern that
disability payments for psychiatric disorders reduce incentives for
employment and rehabilitation. Benefits counseling, with education about
opportunities to work and the financial implications of work on receipt
of disability benefits, may counter these disincentives. Methods: This
single-blind, six-month randomized clinical trial enrolled 84 veterans
who had applied for service-connected compensation for a psychiatric
condition. Veterans were randomly assigned to either four sessions of
benefits counseling or of a control condition involving orientation to
the U.S Department of Veterans Affairs health care system and services.
Days of paid work and work-related activities were assessed at follow-up
visits by using a time-line follow-back calendar. Results: Veterans
assigned to benefits counseling worked for pay for significantly more
days than did veterans in the control group (effect size=.69, p<.05),
reflecting an average of three more days of paid employment during the
28 days preceding the six-month follow-up. Benefits counseling was
associated with increased use of mental health services, but this
correlation did not mediate the effect of benefits counseling on
working. Conclusions: Barriers to employment associated with disability
payments are remediable with basic counseling. More research is needed
to understand the active ingredient of this counseling and to strengthen
the intervention.},

Abstract = {AimThe purpose of this article is to summarize research targeting
hypertension and healthcare access among adults living in rural Haiti.
BackgroundHypertension is a significant public health problem that
impacts one in five persons globally. It is the leading cause of
cardiovascular-related conditions such as stroke and myocardial
infarction and accounts for most global non-communicable disease-related
deaths. Limited healthcare access and social determinants of health are
known contributors to poor health outcomes among persons with
hypertension. Among Haitians, there are stark health disparities between
those who live in urban versus rural areas. DesignA discursive review.
ResultsSeveral issues are identified as barriers to proper hypertension
prevention and management. However, after examining the effective
interventions, we found that social determinants of health such as
transportation costs, lack of field care facilities close to patients,
roadway conditions, political disturbance, and ineffective leadership
and policies are major barriers to controlling hypertension in Haiti.
Although Haiti has received help from international organizations,
strengthening its internal infrastructure is paramount in improving
healthcare access. DiscussionThe review concludes that Haitians living
in rural parts of Haiti are less likely to receive healthcare to manage
non-communicable diseases such as hypertension. Similar to other
developing countries, a heightened awareness is needed to address the
lack of healthcare access for those living in rural communities. Impact
to Nursing PracticeNurses and other healthcare professionals working
with populations in Haiti should become aware of the barriers and
facilitators that promote sufficient healthcare access. To achieve this
goal, nurses must understand the social determinants and other factors
that serve as barriers for achieving access to quality care for this
vulnerable population. No Patient or Public ContributionThere was no
patient or public involvement in the design or drafting of this

Month = {SEP},
Abstract = {Purpose of review: Work is a major determinant of mental health and a
socially integrating force. To be excluded from the workforce creates
material deprivation, erodes self-confidence, creates a sense of
isolation and marginalization and is a key risk factor for mental
disability. This review summarizes recent evidence pertaining to
employment-related stigma and discrimination experienced by people with
mental disabilities. A broad understanding of the stigmatization process
is adopted, which includes cognitive, attitudinal, behavioural and
structural disadvantages.
Recent findings: Stigma is both a proximate and a distal cause of
employment inequity for people with a mental disability who experience
direct discrimination because of prejudicial attitudes from employers
and workmates and indirect discrimination owing to historical patterns
of disadvantage, I structural disincentives against competitive
employment and generalized policy neglect. Against this background,
modern mental health rehabilitation models and legislative philosophies,
which focus on citizenship rights and full social participation, are to
be welcomed. Yet, recent findings demonstrate that the legislation
remains vulnerable to the very prejudicial attitudes they are intended
to abate.
Summary: Research conducted during the past year continues to highlight
multiple attitudinal and structural barriers that prevent people with
mental disabilities from becoming active participants in the competitive
labour market.},

Title = {Broadband speed equity: A new digital divide?},
Journal = {APPLIED GEOGRAPHY},
Year = {2014},
Volume = {52},
Pages = {25-33},
Month = {AUG},
Abstract = {The availability and performance of broadband connectivity is becoming
an increasingly important issue across much of the developed world as
the prevalence of richer media services and growing populations have
generated increasing demands on existing networks. The heterogeneous
geography of broadband infrastructure and investments results in
variable service provision, and as such, there exist large disparities
in access and performance within different spatio-temporal locations.
This paper presents analysis of 4.7 million crowdsourced Internet speed
test results that were compiled between 2010 and 2013 alongside various
indicators of socio-spatial structure to map disparities in English
broadband speed between and within urban areas. Although average speeds
have improved over time, inequity is shown to emerge between different
societal groups and locations. Short-term dynamics also reveal that in
areas of different density, speeds can fall dramatically during peak
hours, thus influencing the availability of services. The apparent
disparities in access and performance represent a major issue as
Internet use becomes increasingly ubiquitous in our everyday lives, with
inequalities evoking social and economic disadvantage at local and
national scales. This work resonates with UK government policy that has
stimulated considerable investment in improving infrastructure, and
presents analysis of an expansive crowd sourced ``big data{''} resource

quantitative portion of a larger mixed-methods study of 51 injured,
community-dwelling servicemembers compared the relative contribution of
contextual factors between groups of servicemembers with different
levels of CR. Cluster analysis indicated three groups of servicemembers
showing low, moderate, and high levels of CR. Statistical analyses
identified contextual factors that significantly discriminated between
CR clusters. Multivariate analysis of variance and discriminant analysis
indicated significant contributions of general self-efficacy, services
and assistance barriers, physical and structural barriers, attitudes and
support barriers, perceived level of disability and/or handicap, work
and school barriers, and policy barriers to CR scores. Overall, analyses
indicated that injured servicemembers with lower CR scores had lower
general self-efficacy scores, reported more difficulty with
environmental barriers, and reported their injuries as more disabling.},

Title = {``A whole new future{''} - identity construction among disadvantaged
young adults},
Journal = {CAREER DEVELOPMENT INTERNATIONAL},
Year = {2016},
Volume = {21},
Number = {7},
Pages = {658-681},
Abstract = {Purpose - The purpose of this paper is to explore how disadvantaged
young adults construct a positive work-related identity in their
transition from unemployment to employment, and what enables or
constrains a successful transition.
Design/methodology/approach - The authors conducted semi-structured
interviews with 29 apprentices of a reemployment program (Jamie Oliver's
Fifteen). The qualitative data were complemented by data on
participants' reemployment status one year after the program ended.
Findings - Identity construction was not preceded by clear motives or
``possible selves.{''} Rather, serendipitous events led to participation
in the reemployment program, after which provisional selves seemed to
emerge through different pathways. The data also suggested that
disadvantaged young adults had to discard their old selves to
consolidate their new identity.
Research limitations/implications - A successful transition from
unemployment to employment may require that old selves must be discarded
before new selves can fully emerge. Given that our qualitative design
limits the generalizability of the findings, the authors propose a
process model that deserves further empirical examination.
Practical implications - A clear employment goal is not always required
for the success of a reemployment intervention: interventions should
rather focus on accommodating the emergence and consolidation of
provisional selves. Yet, such programs can be simultaneously effective
and unhelpful: especially group identification should be monitored.
Originality/value - Most research assumes that people are driven by
specific goals when making a transition. The current study shows
otherwise: the factors that enable or constrain a successful transition
are not to be found in people's goals, but rather in the process of
identity construction itself.},

Abstract = {Introducing newborn screening (NBS) services for sickle cell disease
(SCD) in Africa has been proven to be one of the most cost-effective
approach to reducing morbidity and mortality associated with this
condition. In view of this evidence, efforts have been made by countries
in Africa where SCD prevalence is high to pilot NBS programmes and to
strengthen comprehensive care services for SCD. While it is important to
reap the benefits of NBS for SCD in Africa in terms of overall
quantitative measures, it is also important to understand how certain
social and cultural conditions may disproportionately influence the
outcomes of screening for some groups. The aim of this study was to
analyse the role of gender norms before and after NBS for SCD in
Tanzania, and to assess how they influence the quality of care of
diagnosed children. Using qualitative methods, we did in-depth
interviews with families of children with SCD identified through the NBS
services and focus group sessions with nurses working in neonatal and
postnatal sections of regional referral hospitals in Dar es Salaam. By
analysing the experiences of both the families and nurses, we were able
to provide evidence on, firstly, the gendered relations that undergird
childcare and, secondly, how those relations influence the quality of
care the child may potentially receive. The results emphasize the
importance of studying the social implications of SCD in Africa,
especially with regard to improving the quality of care for patients
with SCD in the region. We propose simple interventions, including
gender-conscious health education and genetic counselling, which can
help to improve the community understanding of genetic diseases while
also reducing gender-related inequalities related to SCD care in Africa.},

Abstract = {This paper examines the inequalities between national and non-national
workers through class formation in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC)
countries of Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the United
Arab Emirates. These inequalities are constructed over non-standardized
salaries, work conditions, and the rights deprivations that arise from
the kafala system due to demographic imbalances in the region. From this
point of view, this paper's main argument is that inequalities exist
between nationals and non-nationals in the labor market. At the same
time, this paper argues that Gulf states have made some arrangements
such as extending the kafala system and controlling salaried payments to
eliminate labor market inequalities. The secondary data, including the
participation of nationals and non-nationals in the labor market and
their minimum and maximum salaries, have been used to present the
inequalities in the labor market. This paper uses qualitative analysis
and the interpretive technique to provide clear understanding. This
paper's main finding is that although some strategies exist that have
increased the rights of non-national workers in the Gulf countries, the
salary and personal-rights inequalities in the labor market, as well as
discrimination with respect to one's home country to still exist. In
this way, the article's main objective is to make an essential
contribution to the literature on the political economy of Gulf
countries by presenting the current situation of nationals and
non-nationals in GCC countries' labor markets following the government
regulations that strengthen the labor rights.},

Title = {Reducing inequalities in health and access to health care in a rural
Indian community: an India-Canada collaborative action research project},
Journal = {BMC INTERNATIONAL HEALTH AND HUMAN RIGHTS},
Year = {2011},
Volume = {11},
Number = {2},
Month = {NOV 8},
Abstract = {Background: Inadequate public action in vulnerable communities is a
major constraint for the health of poor and marginalized groups in low
and middle-income countries (LMICs). The south Indian state of Kerala,
known for relatively equitable provision of public resources, is no
exception to the marginalization of vulnerable communities. In Kerala,
women's lives are constrained by gender-based inequalities and certain
indigenous groups are marginalized such that their health and welfare
lag behind other social groups.
The research: The goal of this socially-engaged, action-research
initiative was to reduce social inequalities in access to health care in
a rural community. Specific objectives were: 1) design and implement a
community-based health insurance scheme to reduce financial barriers to
health care, 2) strengthen local governance in monitoring and
evidence-based decision-making, and 3) develop an evidence base for
appropriate health interventions.
Results and outcomes: Health and social inequities have been masked by
Kerala's overall progress. Key findings illustrated large inequalities
between different social groups. Particularly disadvantaged are
lower-caste women and Paniyas (a marginalized indigenous group), for
whom inequalities exist across education, employment status,
landholdings, and health. The most vulnerable populations are the least
likely to receive state support, which has broader implications for the
entire country. A community based health solidarity scheme (SNEHA),
under the leadership of local women, was developed and implemented
yielding some benefits to health equity in the community-although
inclusion of the Paniyas has been a challenge.
The partnership: The Canadian-Indian action research team has worked
collaboratively for over a decade. An initial focus on surveys and data
analysis has transformed into a focus on socially engaged, participatory
action research.
Challenges and successes: Adapting to unanticipated external forces,
maintaining a strong team in the rural village, retaining human
resources capable of analyzing the data, and encouraging Paniya
participation in the health insurance scheme were challenges. Successes
were at least partially enabled by the length of the funding (this was a
two-phase project over an eight year period).},

Title = {Sizing up transport poverty: A national scale accounting of low-income

about it},
Journal = {TRANSPORT POLICY},
Year = {2019},
Volume = {74},
Pages = {214-223},

Abstract = {Millions of Canadians rely on public transportation to conduct daily
activities and participate in the labour force. However, many low-income
households are disadvantaged because existing public transit service
does not provide them with sufficient access to destinations. Limited
transit options, compounded with socioeconomic disadvantage, can result
in transport poverty, preventing travel to important destinations, like
employment opportunities. Given the growing gentrification of Canadian
downtowns and the dispersion of poverty into Canadian suburbs, the time
is right for a national accounting of those living in transport poverty,
and the development of a national transport and land use strategy for
alleviating the risks of accessibility deprivation. Accordingly, in this
paper we measure and analyze vertical inequalities in access to
employment in Canadian cities in order to estimate how many, where, and
to what extent, Canadians are at risk of transport poverty. We make use
of open transit network data and cutting edge accessibility measurement
methods to generate comparative scores suitable for a national-scale
analysis. We find that in aggregate, lower income neighbourhoods tend to
have better levels of transit accessibility. But despite this overall
positive outlook, there are still nearly one million low-income
individuals living in urban areas with low transit accessibility. We
summarize our findings by generating descriptive typologies for areas
vulnerable to transport poverty which are then used to develop and
recommend planning strategies to reduce inequalities.},

Title = {Worklessness and regional differences in the social gradient in general
health: Evidence from the 2001 English census},
Journal = {HEALTH \& PLACE},
Year = {2010},
Volume = {16},
Number = {5},
Pages = {1014-1021},
Month = {SEP},
Abstract = {Background There has been much focus on separating contextual and
compositional influences on social inequalities in health. However,
there has been less focus on the important role of place in shaping the
distribution of risk factors Spatial variations in worklessness are one
such factor In this paper, then we examine the extent to which between
and within regional differences in the social gradient in self-rated
general health are associated with differences in rates of worklessness.
Methods: Data were obtained for men and women of working age (25-59) who
had ever worked from the Sample of Anonymised Records (Individual SAR)-a
3\% representative sample of the 2001 English Census (349,699 women and
349,181 men). Generalised linear models were used to calculate region
and age adjusted prevalence difference for not good health by education
(as an indicator of socioeconomic status) and employment status The
slope index of an inequality was also calculated for each region.
Results. For both men and women, educational inequalities in
worklessness and not good health are largest in those regions with the
highest overall levels of worklessness. Adjusting for worklessness
considerably attenuated the educational health gradient within all
English regions (by over 60\%) and virtually eliminated between region
differences
Discussion. Macroeconomic policies, which influence the demand for
labour, may have an important role in creating inequalities in general
health of the working age population both within and between regions
Employment policy may therefore be one important approach to tackling
spatial and socioeconomic health inequalities. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd All

Journal = {SOCIOLOGY COMPASS},
Year = {2020},
Volume = {14},
Number = {3},
Month = {MAR},
Abstract = {As the largest minority group in the United States, Latinas/os have
experienced a long history of discrimination, prejudice, and
stigmatization as gang members. A contemporary survey of law enforcement
agencies reported that Latinos continue to be the largest proportion of
any racial or ethnic group involved in gangs. To describe such a
pattern, the framework of settler colonialism will be utilized to
describe differential experiences based on race, gender, and how
structural inequalities vary by region and time. Latinas/os have been
particularly impacted by segregation, second-class treatment, and
policies considered racially neutral. Gangs provide a topical area for
examining patterns of racialization and social control. The authors of
this article will outline the research literature on gangs and how
settler colonialism has impacted the Latina/o population regarding the
origination of gangs, reasons for joining, behaviors and activities, and
the process for leaving these groups. The authors emphasize
decolonization strategies including reducing structural inequalities and
thereby reducing gang membership and risky behaviors. Until this can be
accomplished, the authors hope for human rights, labor equity, and
religious organizing efforts that can form into social movements of
collective empowerment and justice.},

Abstract = {The strike that started on February 1, 2019 and that has lasted more
than 48 days at the Mexican Universidad Autonoma Metropolitana (UAM)
{[}1] might greatly impact its future. There are two demands of the UAM
syndicate (SITUAM) of administrative staff and faculty: one such demand
is related to the salaries of the SITUAM administrative staff and
part-time faculty and the other claim is concerning violations to the
Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA) between the SITUAM and the UAM
(the employer). The SITUAM is asking for an increment of 20\% to the
salaries of the administrative workers and part-time faculty. The second
set of demands are the violations to the CBA which includes that the UAM
hires extra personnel of confidence as part of its administrative staff
and with higher wages than those of the unionized workers and that the
UAM has not created 400 new job positions agreed in former negotiations.
To settle the lengthy strike the UAM authorities have proposed, on the
salary side, an increment of 3.35\% to the salaries of the SITUAM
administrative workers and part-time faculty as well as an increment of
3\% to the salaries of administrative workers by upgrading the wages of
current job positions (job reclassification). On the violations to the
CBA the UAM offers the creation of 93 new staff positions for the
SITUAM. The federal government has increased the 2019 budget of the UAM
by 3.39\% and most of the strikes this year in Mexican universities have
settled with increments of 3.35\% to the salaries. What the SITUAM
claims during this long strike is that at UAM the personnel of
confidence obtains disproportional economic bonuses and incentives. The
SITUAM workers ask as part of the solutions to settle the strike that
the personnel of confidence reduces its economic bonuses and incentives
and transfer that amount to their salaries. The authorities refuse. The
difference in wages between a directive and a SITUAM worker is abysmal.
At UAM there are 3882 administrative workers (47\%), 1262 personnel of
confidence (15\%) and 3090 faculty (38\%). However, the salary budget is
distributed as follows, 29.37 million US dollars (21\%) for the
administrative workers, 42.60 (31\%) for personnel of confidence and
65.92 (48\%) for faculty. This shows a great income inequality because
the personnel of confidence are the 15\% of the UAM working force and
obtain 31\% of the salary budget, while the administrative workers who
are the 47\% of the working force obtain only 21\% of the salary budget
{[}2]. Also, the last report on salaries at UAM of the year 2018, shows
that there are 85 persons who earn more than the Mexican President (net
5572 US dollars monthly): 52 are tenured professors and 33 are personnel
of confidence. As the federal budgets allocated for the next few years
might increase only by inflation, the UAM has to drastically reengineer
its budge to secure its future. In this paper the causes, outcomes and
long-term effects of the strike for the UAM future are analyzed.},

Journal = {FRONTIERS IN SUSTAINABLE CITIES},
Year = {2023},
Volume = {4},
Month = {JAN 13},
Abstract = {Insecurity, violence, and xenophobia manifest at different geographic
scales of the South African landscape threatening to compromise,
reverse, derail, and contradict the envisaged democratic processes and
gains in the country. Since the dawn of the new democracy in 1994, the
South African landscape has witnessed surges of different scales of
violence, protests, riots, looting, criminality, and vigilantism in
which question marks have been raised with respect to the right to the
city or urban space and the right to national resources and
opportunities, i.e., access, use, distribution and spread of social,
economic, environmental, and political resources and benefits. Louis
Trichardt is a small rural agricultural town located in the Makhado
municipality of Vhembe District in Limpopo Province, South Africa. In
the study, this town is used as a securityscapes lens of analysis to
explore urban conflict and violence. The relative importance index (RII)
was used to measure the barriers and solutions to advance safe
neighborhoods' settlements and built environment areas in the study
area. In this way, issues influencing the performance of reconfigured
securityscapes in Louis Trichardt were explored by highlighting how new
town neighborhood securityscape initiatives and activities are
contributing to space, place, and culture change management transitions.
The discussion pressure and pain points revolve around the widening
societal inequalities, deepening poverty, influx of (ll)legal migrants
and migrant labor, lingering xenophobia, and failure to embrace the
otherness difficulties in the country. Findings highlight the options
for urban (in)security, social (in)justice, and (re)design in
post-colonies possibilities, limitations, and contradictions of
securityscapes in (re)configured spaces of Louis Trichardt. Policy and
planning proposals to improve safety and security spatial logic and
innovation are explored. The critical role of community and local
neighborhood watch groups in complementing state security and private
registered security systems is one way of tackling this matter.},

Abstract = {Background: In the 2011 Rio Political Declaration on Social Determinants
of Health, World Health Organization (WHO) Member States pledged action
in five areas crucial for addressing health inequities. Their pledges
referred to better governance for health and development, greater
participation in policymaking and implementation, further reorientation
of the health sector towards reducing health inequities, strengthening
of global governance and collaboration, and monitoring progress and
increasing accountability. WHO is developing a global system for
monitoring governments' and international organizations' actions on the
social determinants of health (SDH) to increase transparency and
accountability, and to guide implementation, in alignment with broader
health and development policy frameworks, including the universal health
coverage and Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) agendas. We describe
the selection of indicators proposed to be part of the initial WHO
global system for monitoring action on the SDH.
Methods: An interdisciplinary working group was established by WHO, the
Public Health Agency of Canada, and the Canadian Institutes of Health
Research-Institute of Population and Public Health. We describe the
processes and criteria used for selecting SDH action indicators that
were of high quality and the described the challenges encountered in
creating a set of metrics for capturing government action on addressing
the Rio Political Declaration's five Action Areas.
Results: We developed 19 measurement concepts, identified and screened
20 indicator databases and systems, including the 223 SDG indicators,
and applied strong criteria for selecting indicators for the core
indicator set. We identified 36 suitable existing indicators, which were
often SDG indicators.
Conclusions: Lessons learnt included the importance of ensuring
diversity of the working group and always focusing on health equity;
challenges included the relative dearth of data and indicators on some
key interventions and capturing the context and level of implementation
of indicator interventions.},

Abstract = {Objective The aim of this study was to identify knowledge translation
(KT) strategies aimed at improving sexual, reproductive, maternal,
newborn, child and adolescent health (SRMNCAH) and well-being.
Design Rapid scoping review.
Search strategy A comprehensive and peer-reviewed search strategy was
developed and applied to four electronic databases: MEDLINE ALL, Embase,
CINAHL and Web of Science. Additional searches of grey literature were
conducted to identify KT strategies aimed at supporting SRMNCAH. KT
strategies and policies published in English from January 2000 to May
2020 onwards were eligible for inclusion.
Results Only 4\% of included 90 studies were conducted in low-income
countries with the majority (52\%) conducted in high-income countries.
Studies primarily focused on maternal newborn or child health and
well-being. Education (81\%), including staff workshops and education
modules, was the most commonly identified intervention component from
the KT interventions. Low-income and middle-income countries were more
likely to include civil society organisations, government and
policymakers as stakeholders compared with high-income countries.
Reported barriers to KT strategies included limited resources and time
constraints, while enablers included stakeholder involvement throughout
the KT process.
Conclusion We identified a number of gaps among KT strategies for
SRMNCAH policy and action, including limited focus on adolescent, sexual
and reproductive health and rights and SRMNCAH financing strategies.
There is a need to support stakeholder engagement in KT interventions
across the continuum of SRMNCAH services. Researchers and policymakers
should consider enhancing efforts to work with multisectoral
stakeholders to implement future KT strategies and policies to address
SRMNCAH priorities.},

Title = {The difficulty of professional continuation among female doctors in
Japan: a qualitative study of alumnae of 13 medical schools in Japan},
Journal = {BMJ OPEN},
Year = {2015},
Volume = {5},
Number = {3},
Abstract = {Objectives: To investigate the difficulties Japanese female doctors face
in continuing professional practice.
Design: A qualitative study using the Kawakita Jiro method.
Setting: A survey conducted in 2011 of 13 private Japanese medical
school alumni associations.
Participants: 359 female doctors.
Primary outcome measures: Barriers of balancing work and gender role.
Results: The female doctors reported that professional practice was a
struggle with long working hours due to a current shortage of doctors in
Japan. There was also a severe shortage of childcare facilities in the
workplace. Some women appeared to have low confidence in balancing the
physician's job and personal life, resulting in low levels of
professional pursuit. There appeared to be two types of stereotypical
gender roles, including one expected from society, stating that ``child
rearing is a woman's job{''}, and the other perceived by the women
themselves, that some women had a very strong desire to raise their own
children. Male doctors and some female doctors who were single or older
were perceived to be less enthusiastic about supporting women who worked
while raising children because these coworkers feared that they would
have to perform additional work as a result of the women taking long
periods of leave.
Conclusions: Important factors identified for promoting the continuation
of professional practice among female doctors in Japan were the need to
improve working conditions, including cutting back on long working
hours, a solution to the shortage of nurseries, a need for the
introduction of educational interventions to clarify professional
responsibilities, and redefinition of the gender division of labour for
male and female doctors. In addition, we identified a need to modernise
current employment practices by introducing temporary posts to cover
maternity leave and introducing flexible working hours during specialist
training, thus supporting and encouraging more women to continue their
medical careers.},

Month = {APR},
Abstract = {Introduction The COVID-19 pandemic and associated restrictive measures
have caused important disruptions in economies and labour markets,
changed the way we work and socialise, forced schools to close and
healthcare and social services to reorganise. This unprecedented crisis
forces individuals to make considerable efforts to adapt and will have
psychological and social consequences, mainly on vulnerable individuals,
that will remain once the pandemic is contained and will most likely
exacerbate existing social and gender health inequalities. This crisis
also puts a toll on the capacity of our healthcare and social services
structures to provide timely and adequate care. The MAVIPAN (Ma vie et
la pandemie/ My Life and the Pandemic) study aims to document how
individuals, families, healthcare workers and health organisations are
affected by the pandemic and how they adapt.
Methods and analysis MAVIPAN is a 5-year longitudinal prospective cohort
study launched in April 2020 across the province of Quebec (Canada).
Quantitative data will be collected through online questionnaires (4-6
times/year) according to the evolution of the pandemic. Qualitative data
will be collected with individual and group interviews and will seek to
deepen our understanding of coping strategies. Analysis will be
conducted under a mixed-method umbrella, with both sequential and
simultaneous analyses of quantitative and qualitative data.
Ethics and dissemination MAVIPAN aims to support the healthcare and
social services system response by providing high-quality, real-time
information needed to identify those who are most affected by the
pandemic and by guiding public health authorities' decision making
regarding intervention and resource allocation to mitigate these
impacts. MAVIPAN was approved by the Ethics Committees of the Primary
Care and Population Health Research Sector of CIUSSS de la
Capitale-Nationale (Committee of record) and of the additional
participating institutions.},

assistants (female; mean age 43.37 +/- 10.0) and individual
semi-structured interviews with two managers (female; mean age 45.5 +/-
10.26) were conducted 2 weeks and 6 months after the intervention, in
two aged-care facilities. Interviews were recorded, transcribed and
submitted to content analysis by two independent researchers. Results
were organised into implementer, participant and organisation level
hindered and facilitator factors. Findings enable the interpretation of
the experimental results and underscore the importance of collecting the
perception of different grades of staff to obtain information relevant

Month = {MAR},
Abstract = {Epilepsy, a complex spectrum of disorders, affects about 2.9 million
people in the U.S. Similar to other chronic disorders, people with
epilepsy face challenges related to management of the disorder, its
treatment, co-occurring depression, disability, social disadvantages,
and stigma. Two national conferences on public health and epilepsy
(1997, 2003) and a 2012 IOM report on the public health dimensions of
epilepsy highlighted important knowledge gaps and emphasized the need
for evidence-based, scalable epilepsy self-management programs. The
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention translated recommendations on
self-management research and dissemination into an applied research
program through the Prevention Research Centers Managing Epilepsy Well
(MEW) Network. MEW Network objectives are to advance epilepsy
self-management research by developing effective interventions that can
be broadly disseminated for use in people's homes, healthcare providers'
offices, or in community settings. The aim of this report is to provide
an update on the MEW Network research pipeline, which spans efficacy,
effectiveness, and dissemination. Many of the interventions use e-health
strategies to eliminate barriers to care (e.g., lack of transportation,
functional limitations, and stigma). Strengths of this mature research
network are the culture of collaboration, community-based partnerships,
e-health methods, and its portfolio of prevention activities, which
range from efficacy studies engaging hard-to-reach groups, to
initiatives focused on provider training and knowledge translation. The
MEW Network works with organizations across the country to expand its
capacity, help leverage funding and other resources, and enhance the
development, dissemination, and sustainability of MEW Network programs
and tools. Guided by national initiatives targeting chronic disease or
epilepsy burden since 2007, the MEW Network has been responsible for
more than 43 scientific journal articles, two study reports, seven book
chapters, and 62 presentations and posters. To date, two programs have
been adopted and disseminated by the national Epilepsy Foundation, state
Epilepsy Foundation affiliates, and other stakeholders. Recent expansion
of the MEW Network membership will help to extend future reach and
public health impact. (C) 2016 American Journal of Preventive Medicine.

Abstract = {Health care needs in the population change through ageing and increasing
multimorbidity. Primary health care might accommodate to this through
the composition of practices in terms of the professionals working in
them. The aim of this article is to describe the composition of primary
care practices in 34 countries and to analyse its relationship to
practice circumstances and the organization of the primary care system.
The data were collected through a survey among samples of general
practitioners (n = 7183) in 34 countries. In some countries, primary
care is mainly provided in single-handed practices. Other countries
which have larger practices with multiple professional groups. There is
no overall relationship between the professional groups in the practice
and practice location. Practices that are located further from other
primary care practices have more different professions. Practices with a
more than average share of socially disadvantaged people and/or ethnic
minorities have more different professions. In countries with a stronger
pro-primary care workforce development and more comprehensive primary
care delivery the number of different professions is higher. In
conclusion, primary care practice composition varies strongly. The
organizational scale of primary care is largely country dependent, but
this is only partly explained by system characteristics. (C) 2015

Abstract = {The year 2020 opened the eyes of many to the structures of racism that
persist in our country. As the visceral urgency of those galvanizing
moments fade, organizations must move beyond releasing supportive
statements and determining how they can live up to their stated values.
To truly support Black lives, academic medical centers (AMCs) must
commit to critically examine and improve the manner in which daily
practices, culture, and context uplift Black students, health care
professionals, and patients to achieve health equity. One step is to
create a culture that is willing to listen and improve when people
express discomfort or report mistreatment in order to retain people who
are underrepresented in medicine (URiM) in a welcoming environment.
Academic centers should address microaggressions to create a safe work
and learning atmosphere. Then, ensure that faculty, trainees, and staff
represent the demographics of the communities in which institutions are
situated. Recruiting and retaining an inclusive health care workforce
must be systematic and intentional to achieve representation. Studies
have shown that racial and ethnic concordance between providers and
patients improves patient satisfaction and health outcomes. Further,
business studies have shown that racially diverse leadership teams
outperform teams that are more homogenous. Diversity benefits
colleagues, learners, and patients by considering different perspectives
and improving problem solving. Additionally, AMCss should teach about
structural racism as a social determinant of health to raise awareness
of a common cause of health disparities and understand why patients of
color may distrust the medical system. Furthermore, academic centers
should work with local leaders to assess needs and provide community
benefits and advocate for policies that meet those needs. While there
are some challenges in starting these conversations in our institutions,
changing the status quo is necessary to achieve health equity for all.},

Abstract = {This article explores how parents choose childcare settings for their
pre-school children within a context of complex policy on eligibility
for free provision and a developing market. Using data from interviews
with 17 mainly middle-class parents in England, we explore in detail how
parents go about choosing a childcare setting and the different phases
of this process. This adds further nuance to the existing literature on
choosing practices and the dysfunction and inequalities of a neoliberal
childcare market, and also updates the discussion to include recent
policy developments such as the provision of `30 hours free childcare'
for 3 and 4-year-olds. We conclude that parental choosing involves a
series of decisions in two or three phases, which start from practical
considerations, followed by quality comparison and then back to
practical constraints if a decision has not been made. The options open
to parents are split between not only those able to accommodate shorter
`free' provision and those that require longer periods of childcare to
work, but also between those with children under three and above.
Contrary to previous findings in this area, this split may work to the
disadvantage of some middle-class families, whose children attend
lower-quality settings as a result.},

Abstract = {Objective: To provide an update on rehabilitation in Madagascar by using
local knowledge to outline the potential barriers and facilitators for
implementation of the World Health Organization (WHO) Disability Action
Plan (DAP).
Methods: A 14-day extensive workshop programme (September October 2014)
was held at the University Hospital Antananarivo and Antsirabe, with the
Department of Health Madagascar, by rehabilitation staff from Royal
Melbourne Hospital, Australia. Attendees were rehabilitation
professionals (n=29) from 3 main rehabilitation facilities in
Madagascar, who identified various challenges faced in service
provision, education and attitudes/approaches to people with
disabilities. Their responses and suggested barriers/facilitators were
recorded following consensus agreement, using objectives listed in the
DAP.
Results: The barriers and facilitators outlined by participants in
implementing the DAP objectives include: engagement of health
professionals and institutions using a multisectoral approach, new
partnerships, strategic collaboration, provision of technical
assistance, future policy directions, and research and development.
Other challenges for many basic policies included: access to
rehabilitation services, geographical coverage, shortage of skilled
work-force, limited info-technology systems; lack of care-models and
facility/staff accreditation standards; limited health services
infrastructure and ``disconnect{''} between acute and community-based
rehabilitation.
Conclusion: The DAP summary actions were useful planning tools to
improve access, strengthen rehabilitation services and community-based
rehabilitation, and collate data for outcome research.},

Abstract = {In the national economic development in Indonesia, Small and Medium
Enterprises (SMEs) become a priority to be developed, because SMEs can
be the backbone of the populist economic system to reduce the problem of
poverty. In addition. the development of SMEs is able to expand the
economic base and can contribute to the increase of added value, in
addition it would also serve to open employment opportunities in rural
areas. Indramayu is one of the three mango production centers in West
Java that face the problem that there are about 20\% of the mangoes that
is not worth selling. This opportunity is utilized by women who are
members of KUB (Joint Business Group) to be processed into mango dodol
at household scale. But this effort has not been widespread, only
pioneered by a small portion of women. This study aims toobserve the
driving force of women to participate in the processing of mango dodol,
and whether the mango processing business to become mango dodol is
profitable, also how much added value obtained. This study uses case
study method with interview for data collection, participant observation
and documentation study. While the data analysis technique using Hayami
Value-added Method and descriptive analysis. The results revealed that
the factors that affect the women's participation in the processing of
dodol is to increase family income, take advantage of spare time and
take advantage of rejected mangoes. The added value obtained in mango
dodol processing is Rp.50.600,00 per kilogram of input, with a
value-added ratio of 52.8\%. For the development of SMEs mangoes
Training and socialization are needed for the good dodol processing and
hygienic according to SOP (Standard Operational Procedure) from the
relevant institutions, innovation in packaging, pioneering business
partnerships with stores in the city of Indramayu and surrounding areas,
and support financing from banks with an affordable interest rate.},

Title = {Factors affecting motivation and retention of primary health care
workers in three disparate regions in Kenya},
Journal = {HUMAN RESOURCES FOR HEALTH},
Year = {2014},
Volume = {12},
Month = {JUN 6},
Abstract = {Background: The World Health Organization (WHO) and the Government of
Kenya alike identify a well-performing health workforce as key to
attaining better health. Nevertheless, the motivation and retention of
health care workers (HCWs) persist as challenges. This study
investigated factors influencing motivation and retention of HCWs at
primary health care facilities in three different settings in Kenya -
the remote area of Turkana, the relatively accessible region of
Machakos, and the disadvantaged informal urban settlement of Kibera in
Nairobi.
Methods: A cross-sectional cluster sample design was used to select 59
health facilities that yielded interviews with 404 health care workers,
grouped into 10 different types of service providers. Data were
collected in November 2011 using structured questionnaires and a Focus
Group Discussion guide. Findings were analyzed using bivariate and
multivariate methods of the associations and determinants of health
worker motivation and retention.
Results: The levels of education and gender factors were lowest in
Turkana with female HCWs representing only 30\% of the workers against a
national average of 53\%. A smaller proportion of HCWs in Turkana feel
that they have adequate training for their jobs. Overall, 13\% of the
HCWs indicated that they had changed their job in the last 12 months and
20\% indicated that they could leave their current job within the next
two years. In terms of work environment, inadequate access to
electricity, equipment, transport, housing, and the physical state of
the health facility were cited as most critical, particularly in
Turkana. The working environment is rated as better in private
facilities. Adequate training, job security, salary, supervisor support,
and manageable workload were identified as critical satisfaction
factors. Family health care, salary, and terminal benefits were rated as
important compensatory factors.
Conclusions: There are distinct motivational and retention factors that
affect HCWs in the three regions. Findings and policy implications from
this study point to a set of recommendations to be implemented at
national and county levels. These include gender mainstreaming,
development of appropriate retention schemes, competitive compensation
packages, strategies for career growth, establishment of a model HRH
community, and the conduct of a discrete choice experiment.},

Title = {The global nephrology workforce: emerging threats and potential
solutions!},
Journal = {CLINICAL KIDNEY JOURNAL},
Year = {2016},
Volume = {9},
Number = {1},
Pages = {11-22},
Month = {FEB},
Abstract = {Amidst the rising tide of chronic kidney disease (CKD) burden, the
global nephrology workforce has failed to expand in order to meet the
growing healthcare needs of this vulnerable patient population. In
truth, this shortage of nephrologists is seen in many parts of the
world, including North America, Europe, Australia, New Zealand, Asia and
the African continent. Moreover, expert groups on workforce planning as
well as national and international professional organizations predict
further reductions in the nephrology workforce over the next decade,
with potentially serious implications. Although the full impact of this
has not been clearly articulated, what is clear is that the delivery of
care to patients with CKD may be threatened in many parts of the world
unless effective country-specific workforce strategies are put in place
and implemented. Multiple factors are responsible for this apparent
shortage in the nephrology workforce and the underpinning reasons may
vary across health systems and countries. Potential contributors include
the increasing burden of CKD, aging workforce, declining interest in
nephrology among trainees, lack of exposure to nephrology among students
and residents, rising cost of medical education and specialist training,
increasing cultural and ethnic disparities between patients and care
providers, increasing reliance on foreign medical graduates, inflexible
work schedules, erosion of nephrology practice scope by other
specialists, inadequate training, reduced focus on scholarship and
research funds, increased demand to meet quality of care standards and
the development of new care delivery models. It is apparent from this
list that the solution is not simple and that a comprehensive evaluation
is required. Consequently, there is an urgent need for all countries to
develop a policy framework for the provision of kidney disease services
within their health systems, a framework that is based on accurate
projections of disease burden, a full understanding of the internal care
delivery systems and a framework that is underpinned by robust health
intelligence on current and expected workforce numbers required to
support the delivery of kidney disease care. Given the expected
increases in global disease burden and the equally important increase in
many established kidney disease risk factors such as diabetes and
hypertension, the organization of delivery and sustainability of kidney
disease care should be enshrined in governmental policy and legislation.
Effective nephrology workforce planning should be comprehensive and
detailed, taking into consideration the structure and organization of
the health system, existing care delivery models, nephrology workforce
practices and the size, quality and success of internal nephrology
training programmes. Effective training programmes at the undergraduate
and postgraduate levels, adoption of novel recruitment strategies,
flexible workforce practices, greater ownership of the traditional
nephrology landscape and enhanced opportunities for research should be
part of the implementation process. Given that many of the factors that
impact on workforce capacity are generic across countries, cooperation
at an international level would be desirable to strengthen efforts in
workforce planning and ensure sustainable models of healthcare delivery.},

Month = {NOV},
Abstract = {Introduction: The purpose of this study was to describe the job-seeking
and work experiences of transition-age youths with visual impairments.
Methods: We analyzed follow-up data from a quasi-experimental study of a
job-search intervention conducted from 2016 to 2019. Participants were
88 youths with visual impairments from three states; approximately half
received the job-search intervention, and the other half served as a
comparison group. Measures included job-search activities and outcomes,
job-seeking barriers, volunteer and work experiences, and parental
support for job-seeking. Results: Commonly reported job-search
activities were preparing or revising resumes, talking to people about
jobs, submitting applications, and submitting resumes, but most
participants performed these activities infrequently. Many job-seekers
encountered barriers during their job search, and few searches resulted
in paid employment. Participants generally reported moderate levels of
preparation to handle job-seeking barriers and parental support for
job-seeking. Intervention and comparison participants had similar
results on most measures, with few exceptions. Discussion: When youths
actively search for a job but do not find one, their motivation to
continue job-seeking may be reduced, particularly if their preparedness
to overcome job-seeking barriers is low. Although many participants had
some engagement in volunteer or work activities, short-term work
experiences were the most common-and perhaps most misunderstood-work
activity. Implications for practitioners: Youths with visual impairments
may benefit from feedback on their job-seeking approach, application
materials, and interview skills so they can make changes and determine
how to focus or refocus their efforts. In addition to offering feedback,
service providers can provide ongoing support to youth job-seekers and
encourage them to persist in their job search. Explicit discussions
about different types of work activities may help transition-age youths
understand how short-term work experiences differ from paid jobs.},

Abstract = {Objective: To document the development of work participation in young
adults with cerebral palsy who are transitioning into adulthood, examine
associated characteristics, and investigate work limitations and
barriers among employed persons.
Design: Observational longitudinal cohort study.
Subjects: Seventy-four young adults with cerebral palsy of average
intelligence, aged 16-20 years at baseline.
Methods: Work participation in 3 categories (employed, unemployed,
studying) was assessed at baseline, 2-year and 4-year follow-ups using
structured interviews. At 4-year follow-up, associations of work
participation with demographic and clinical characteristics were
examined using multinomial logistic regression. Work limitations and
barriers among employed persons were evaluated using questionnaires.
Results: From age range 16-20 years to age range 20-24 years the
proportions of subjects who were employed and unemployed increased from
12\% to 49\% and 3\% to 17\%, respectively; the proportion who were
students decreased from 85\% to 34\%. In the age range 20-24 years, the
employment rate of young adults with cerebral palsy was lower and the
unemployment rate higher, than that of the general population. A lower
level of gross motor function and younger age were associated with
unemployment. Employed persons experienced few work limitations; 28\%
experienced situational or health barriers.
Conclusion: Young adults with cerebral palsy and average intelligence
are at risk of experiencing unfavourable developments in work
participation. Rehabilitation services should offer support to prevent
unemployment and occupational disability.},

Journal = {JOURNAL OF CLINICAL NURSING},
Year = {2010},
Volume = {19},
Number = {13-14},
Pages = {2014-2022},
Month = {JUL},
Abstract = {Aims and objectives.
To describe the perceptions of breastfeeding in low-income pregnant
women to understand their needs better as they plan to return to work or
school.
Background.
Maternal employment has a negative impact on breastfeeding duration. Yet
there is insufficient research on challenges and facilitators regarding
breastfeeding and employment issue among low-income women in the USA.
Knowing the perceptions of breastfeeding among low-income pregnant women
and their plan to return to work or school may have implications for
nurses and midwives in providing quality care.
Design.
Qualitative study using focus group interviews.
Methods.
The research setting consisted of three Women, Infants and Children
clinics (WIC) in a midwestern city of the USA. Seventeen pregnant women
(aged 19-35) participated in focus group interviews. Data were coded and
analysed for themes and patterns using the QSR software - NVivo 6.
Results.
Eleven participants were single. Ten women were primigravida, and seven
were multipara. The following five themes were identified: (1) perceived
benefits of breastfeeding; (2) general perceptions of breastfeeding; (3)
maternal concerns; (4) having the right support; and (5) anticipated
challenges of combining breastfeeding and work.
Conclusions.
Low-income women anticipated substantial barriers for breastfeeding when
they planned to combine breastfeeding and work or school. The results of
this study have many implications for public health practice, research
and policy. Educating employers and the public at large about the health
and economic benefits derived from long-term breastfeeding could help
promote breastfeeding awareness.
Relevance to clinical practice.
Strategies supporting breastfeeding among low-income working women must
be provided at multiple levels to help overcome the barriers they
concern. Health care providers should help women gain confidence by
minimising their uncertainties and fears about breastfeeding to prepare
them to continue breastfeeding successfully after returning to work.},

Administration's Healthcare for Homeless Veterans program were analyzed
to identify whether the rate of referral and admission to vocational
rehabilitation differed between adults with psychiatric disorders alone

disorder (SUD). Participants with an SUD had an 11 \% greater chance of
being referred to vocational rehabilitation than did those with a

rehabilitation, those with an SUD were almost twice as likely to
participate. Those with an SUD also had a higher rate of employment
prior to evaluation than did those with a psychiatric disorder alone.
These advantages were significant after covarying for demographic
variables, specific psychiatric diagnosis, and Addiction Severity Index

findings fail to support the hypothesis that there is a bias in the
process of referral or admission into vocational rehabilitation and

Abstract = {The academic discipline of social medicine has always had a political
and policy advocacy component, in addition to its core functions of
research and teaching. Its origins lie in the 18th and 19th centuries,
in the work of Johann Peter Frank and Rudolph Virchow, among others.
Virchow's dictum that ``politics is nothing else but medicine on a large
scale{''} highlights that most social determinants of health are
politically determined and shape population health. Yet despite intense
epidemiological and sociological research on the social determinants of
health, less attention has been paid to this political and policy
dimension.
During the 1960s, the author and many other clinicians were directly
involved in attempts to use health care institutions to foster
structural change. However, the author argues that efforts to assist
individual patients and more effectively manage their interactions with
the health care system, as described in the articles in this issue's
special collection on ``structural competency,{''} while worthy and
useful, do not confront root causes. Going forward, efforts to effect
structural change must take place outside the arena of the clinical
encounter and involve interprofessional teams and collaborations with
nongovernmental organizations. They should intervene directly on the
structures that contribute to illness such as poor housing, income and
wealth inequality, inferior education, racism and residential
segregation, and toxic concentrations of extreme poverty in urban areas.
Collectively, these efforts-within and outside the spheres of
medicine-represent the real operative form of structural competency.},

Title = {Quantifying the social equity state of an energy system: environmental
and labor market equity of the shale gas boom in Appalachia},
Journal = {ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH LETTERS},
Year = {2019},
Volume = {14},
Number = {12},
Month = {DEC},
Abstract = {A fundamental societal concern in energy system transitions is the
distribution of benefits and costs across populations. A recent
transition, the US shale gas boom, has dramatically altered the domestic
energy outlook and global markets; however, the social equity
implications have not been meaningfully assessed and accounted for in
public and private decision making. In this study, we develop and
demonstrate a systematic approach to quantify the multi-dimensional
equity state of an energy system, with a focus on the shale gas boom in
the Appalachian basin. We tailor variants of standard equity metrics as
well as develop new empirical and analytical methods and metrics to
assess spatial, temporal, income, and racial equity as it relates to air
quality, climate change, and labor market impacts across the natural gas
supply chain. We find moderate to high spatial inequities with respect
to the distribution of production (Gini coefficient (y) = 0.93),
consumption for electric power generation (77 = 0.68), commercial,
industrial, and residential end use (77 = 0.72), job creation (77 =
0.72), and air pollution-related deaths (77 = 0.77), which are largely
driven by geographicallyfixed natural gas abundance and demand. Air
quality impacts are also regressive, such that mortality risk induced by
natural gas activity generally increases as income decreases; for
example, mortality risk (m) (in units of premature mortality per 100 000
people) for the lowest income class (<\$15 000; m = 0.22 in 2016) is
higher (18\%-31\%) than for the highest income class (>\$150 000; m =
0.27 in 2016). These risks are higher for white (m = 0.30 in 2016) than
non-white (m = 0.16 in 2016) populations, which is largely a result of
the demographics of rural communities within the vicinity of natural gas
development. With respect to local labor market impacts within producing
counties, we find marginal declines in income inequality (2.8\% 1.0\%)
and poverty rates (9.9\% 1.7\%) during the boom, although household
income increases for the wealthiest and decreases for the poorest. At a
systems-level, there is an implied air quality-employment tradeoff of 3
(<1 to 7) job-years created per life-year lost; this tradeoff varies
spatially (-1100 to 4400 life-years lost minus job-years created),
wherein the job benefit outweighs the air quality costs in most
producing counties whereas in all other counties the reverse is true. We
also observe temporal inequities, with air quality and employment
impacts following the boom-and-bust cycle, while climate impacts are
largely borne by future generations. Cross-impact elasticities (c),
which measure the sensitivity between different types of impacts, reveal
that employment increases are sensitive to and coupled with increases in
air and climate impacts (c = 1.1 and c = 1.3, respectively). The metrics
applied here facilitate the evaluation and design of countervailing
policies and systems that explicitly account for social inequities
mediated through energy infrastructure, supply, and demand. For example,
in future energy system transition, such equity metrics can be used to
facilitate decisions related to the siting oflow-carbon infrastructure
such as transmission lines and wind turbines and the phase -out of
fossil fuel infrastructure, as well as to demonstrate changes in
distributional tradeoffs such as the decoupling of environmental and
employment effects.},

Volume = {65},
Number = {3},
Pages = {229-237},
Month = {APR},
Abstract = {Background Older workers often take longer to recover and experience
more missed workdays after work-related injuries, but it is unclear why
or how best to intervene. Knowing the characteristics of older injured
workers may help in developing interventions to reduce the likelihood of
work disability.
Aims To describe and compare several characteristics between younger and
middle-aged working adults (25-54 years), adults nearing retirement
(55-64 years) and adults past typical retirement (>= 65 years), who
sustained work-related musculoskeletal injuries.
Methods In this cross-sectional study, Alberta workers' compensation
claimants with subacute and chronic work-related musculoskeletal
injuries were studied. A wide range of demographic, employment, injury
and clinical characteristics were investigated. Descriptive statistics
were computed and compared between the age groups.
Results Among 8003 claimants, adults 65 years or older, compared to
those 25-54 and 55-64 years, had lower education (16 versus 10 and 12\%,
P < 0.001) and were more likely to work in trades, transport and related
occupations (50 versus 46 and 44\%, P < 0.001), to have less offers of
modified work (57 versus 39 and 42\%, P < 0.001), more fractures (18
versus 14 and 11\%, P < 0.001) and no further rehabilitation recommended
after assessment (28 versus 18 and 20\%, P < 0.01).
Conclusions Injured workers past typical retirement age appeared to be a
disadvantaged group with significant challenges from a vocational
rehabilitation perspective. They were less likely to have modified work
options available or be offered rehabilitation, despite having more
severe injuries.},

Abstract = {It is estimated that 820,000 people in the UK have dementia. Dementia
costs the UK 17 billion a year and in the next 30 years this will treble
to over 50 billion a year. There is a need to raise competence of staff
delivering care to people living with dementia across health, social and
voluntary sector provision. Effective education and training will build
capacity and improve staff knowledge. However, at present not enough is
known about the experiences of staff involved in gaining the skills,
knowledge and attitudes required to support provision of high quality
care for people with dementia.
This study was conducted within a large National Health Service Trust in
the UK serving an urban, ethnically mixed population, in collaboration
with a local university. The trust responded to government policy by
seeking to identify staff training needs.
The aim was to explore the experiences of staff working within a
specialist mental health service in relation to development of skills
for the provision of person-centred care for people with dementia. To
achieve this, staff roles, experiences of dementia training and the ways
in which staff feel they learn were explored through focus group
interviews. Relatives' views of staff competencies necessary for
effective care provision were also explored to supplement the data from
staff. A total of 70 staff and 16 family carers participated and data
were subjected to inductive thematic analysis.
Five themes emerged: competency-based skills, beliefs, enablers and
barriers and ways of learning. Findings suggested participants felt that
skills for person-centred care were innate and could not be taught,
while effective ways of learning were identified as learning by doing,
learning from each other and learning from experience.},

Abstract = {The Group of 20 (G20) was launched as a leaders' forum in the midst of
the 2008 financial crisis and quickly agreed to undertake coordinated
economic stimulus efforts. While those early measures helped stabilize
the global economy, the negative impacts of the crisis on employment
continued to mount through 2009. The leaders turned their attention to
labour market issues; labour and employment ministers met in 2010 and
thereafter. However, the G20 and a number of other countries erroneously
reversed the stimulus approach beginning in Toronto in 2010, leading to
weak recovery, entrenchment of unemployment and stagnation of wages.
Labour ministers increasingly advocated more robust labour market
policies, but were resisted by finance ministers. The leaders themselves
agreed to increasingly strong statements on wages, inequality and social
issues but most G20 countries did not implement them. When the political
backlash against globalization emerged in 2016 the G20 was seen by many
as part of the out-of-touch elite that failed to address the
difficulties and economic anxiety suffered by many G20 member
households. The G20 should adjust course by implementing, in a
coordinated manner, policies that can increase employment and incomes
and reverse growing inequality. This paper lays out two practical
examples of such policies. The first is a coordinated increase in
minimum wages across the G20 to provide direct support to low-wage
workers, restart overall wage growth and increase demand. If implemented
by the entire G20 this would provide a serious stimulus to global
demand, which still remains weak, and avoid competitive undercutting
among G20 members. The second is a coordinated increase in financing for
programmes to help those who have lost as a result of globalization.
Losers often suffer very harsh economic effects and few G20 countries
compensate them adequately. A well-advertised, coordinated effort
including policies such as these could demonstrate the relevance of the
G20 to populations that have benefited little from the group's efforts
to date.},

Abstract = {Gender norms and stereotypes that perpetuate inequality are deeply
embedded in social and individual consciousness and, as a result, are
resistant to change. Gender stratification theories propose that women's
control over material resources can increase bargaining power to
leverage change in key institutions, prompting a shift to more equitable
norms. By extension, policies that promote women's paid employment
should serve as a fulcrum for gender equitable change. Is there any
evidence to support this hypothesis? Investigating this requires a means
to capture gender norms and stereotypes. The World Values Survey
provides just such a mechanism because it contains a series of gender
questions that span a twenty-year period and includes respondents from
more than seventy countries. This paper uses that survey's data to
analyze determinants of trends in norms and stereotypes over time and
across countries, and finds evidence that increases in women's paid
employment promotes gender equitable norms and stereotypes.},

Abstract = {Evidence for effective falls prevention interventions in acute wards is
limited. One reason for this may be suboptimal program implementation.
This study aimed to identify perceived barriers and enablers of the
implementation of the 6-PACK falls prevention program to inform the
implementation in a randomised controlled trial. Strategies to optimise
successful implementation of 6-PACK were also sought. A mixed-methods
approach was applied in 24 acute wards from 6 Australian hospitals.
Participants were nurses working on participating wards and senior
hospital staff including Nurse Unit Managers; senior physicians;
Directors of Nursing; and senior personnel involved in quality and
safety or falls prevention. Information on barriers and enablers of
6-PACK implementation was obtained through surveys, focus groups and
interviews. Questions reflected the COM-B framework that includes three
behaviour change constructs of: capability, opportunity and motivation.
Focus group and interview data were analysed thematically, and survey
data descriptively. The survey response rate was 60\% (420/702), and 12
focus groups (n = 96 nurses) and 24 interviews with senior staff were
conducted. Capability barriers included beliefs that falls could not be
prevented; and limited knowledge on falls prevention in patients with
complex care needs (e.g. cognitive impairment). Capability enablers
included education and training, particularly face to face case study
based approaches. Lack of resources was identified as an opportunity
barrier. Leadership, champions and using data to drive practice change
were recognised as opportunity enablers. Motivation barriers included
complacency and lack of ownership in falls prevention efforts.
Motivation enablers included senior staff articulating clear goals and a
commitment to falls prevention; and use of reminders, audits and
feedback. The information gained from this study suggests that regular
practical face-to-face education and training for nurses; provision of
equipment; audit, reminders and feedback; leadership and champions; and
the provision of falls data is key to successful falls prevention
program implementation in acute hospitals.},

Title = {Role of age and health in perceptions of returning to work: a
qualitative study},
Journal = {BMC PUBLIC HEALTH},
Year = {2019},
Volume = {19},
Month = {MAY 2},
Abstract = {BackgroundPeople aged over 50years form a growing proportion of the
working age population, but are at increased risk of unemployment
compared to other age groups. It is often difficult to return to work
after unemployment, particularly for those with health issues. In this
paper, we explored the perceptions, attitudes, and experiences of
returning to work after a period of unemployment (hereafter RTW)
barriers among unemployed adults aged over 50years.MethodIn-depth
semi-structured interviews were conducted with a diverse sample of 26
unemployed individuals aged 50-64years who were engaged with the UK
Government's Work Programme. Data were thematically analysed.ResultsAge
alone was not discussed by participants as a barrier to work; rather
their discussions of barriers to work focused on the ways in which age
influenced other issues in their lives. For participants reporting
chronic health conditions, or disabilities, there was a concern about
being unfit to return to their previous employment area, and therefore
having to start again in a new career, with associated concerns about
their health status and managing their treatment burden. Some
participants also reported experiencing either direct or indirect ageism
(including related to their health status or need to access healthcare)
when looking for work. Other issues facing older people included wider
socio-political changes, such as the increased pension age, were felt to
be unfair in many ways and contradicted existing expectations of social
roles (such as acting as a carer for other family
members).ConclusionOver-50s experienced multiple and interacting issues,
at both the individual and societal level, that created RTW barriers.
There is a need for employability interventions that focus on supporting
the over-50s who have fallen out of the labour market to take a holistic
approach, working across healthcare, employability and the local labour
market, providing treatment and skills training for both those out of
work and for employers, in order to create an intervention that that
helps achieve RTW and its associated health benefit.},

Abstract = {The changing environment of rural development policy, namely the recoil
upon local people and their voice, determines the need for new research
frameworks. Multidimensionality of competitiveness concept leads to the
broad variety of different research strategies; rural competitiveness is
one among many. Differently from the other comprehensive research, the
authors of the article chose to survey the opinion of local population
about their competitiveness' abilities naming this strategy as the
place-based individual competitiveness' perception. People from two
rural local communities were asked to assess the area of
competitiveness, to rate the competiveness' advantages with regard to
innovations, and to grade the factors of competitiveness. Different
statistical methods as correlation analysis, chi(2) test, and factor
analysis were used for the evaluation. Despite some geographical and
occupational differences in the respondents' answers, it appeared that:
low prices are still valued as the main asset of competitive advantages;
the future of rural competitiveness belongs to the rural non-farm
employment while people employed in agriculture are less inclined to
apply innovations; factors of competitiveness are treated rather through
the lenses of infrastructure while such factors as the energetic
resources and the qualification of specialists still dominate.},

to improve the quality of life in developing countries, laying out the
responsibilities of both groups of countries in working towards
achieving these goals.
Developed countries are expected to provide 0.7\% of GNP in official
development assistance to finance development programmes. Developing
countries should provide an appropriate policy environment, while
increasing their investment in these activities.
Three of the eight goals are health related and aim to achieve between
1990 and 2015: a two-thirds reduction in child deaths (MDG 4); a
three-quarters decline in maternal deaths (MDG 5); and reversal of the
HIV/AIDS, malaria and tuberculosis epidemics (MDG 6).
Doubling the proportion of girls with a secondary education from 19\% to
38\% could reduce fertility from 5.3 to 3.9 children per woman and lower
infant mortality from 81 to 38 deaths per 1000 births.
Other MDGs focus on public health (safe water, sanitation, environmental
protection), alleviation of poverty and hunger, and the determinants of
development (education, gender equity, fair trade, debt management).
Income inequity exacerbates inequalities between the rich and the poor.
Globally, only 36\% of poor women have access to skilled care at birth
compared to 85\% among the wealthiest.
In Africa and South-east Asia, the regions with highest maternal and
child death rates, universal access to community, primary level and
preventive interventions for newborns and mothers could reduce morbidity
and mortality by half. Achieving the MDGs for maternal and child health
would require universal access to clinical services as well.},

Title = {The system of general and higher education in the Russian Empire:
Principles and directions of public policy, regulation, and governing
bodies (a historical and legal aspect)},

Abstract = {The system of educational institutions of general and higher education,
governing bodies, regulation by law of the educational sphere, and, in
general, the directions of state educational policy are the most
important sphere of any state. From this point of view, this study
examines the history of the development of the educational sphere in the
Russian Empire and analyzes the main stages and changes that took place
in public policy, administration and regulation by law of these
processes. Given the wide variety of groups of educational institutions
in the country in the 18th - early 20th centuries, this work only
considers issues related to the system of general and higher educational
institutions, that is, institutions implementing primary public
education, male and female secondary education, and universities. In
this aspect, the author analyzes the guiding principles of organizing
education at the central level - in institutions belonging to the
Ministry of Public Education, because it was they who served, first of
all, the goals of training a subject of the Russian Empire ``in
general{''}, as a basic element of the entire state and the system of
public relations. Using the structural-functional and
problem-chronological approaches, the author distinguished three periods
(with internal stages) based on a general analysis of state policy in
approaches to education and, as a consequence, analyzing the
corresponding system of educational institutions, governing bodies and
normative regulation of the educational sphere. The author concludes
that the educational policy directly depended on the ideological views
and directions of the domestic policy of the monarchs and the elite of
Russia. In the system of organization and management of education, there
was a constant struggle between two tendencies: liberal transformations
(the beginning of the 19th century, the years of the Great Reforms and
the short period of the bourgeois-democratic republic of the Provisional
Government) and conservative-protective transformations (tendencies
characteristic of a longer period of time throughout the 19th century
and the beginning of the 20th century) The first tendency was
characterized by the all-class nature of education, the elimination of
class restrictions, the autonomy of university management, etc. The
second trend was characterized by the establishment of class barriers in
order to restrict access to education (and therefore, in the future, to
public service, to social elevators, etc.) of the lower strata of the
country's population, the limitation of the autonomy of universities,
the acquisition of a higher level of education by subjects who were
considered as a support of the monarchical regime - by landowners,
officials, the military, etc.},

Abstract = {Migration is an important social and economic process of globalization
for both the host country and the donor country. Recently researchers
around the world have been interested in the health of migrants and
their medical care. For Russia, this issue is especially relevant in
connection with the large number of migrants. At the moment, the issue
of medical care for labor migrants is regulated, but the provision of
health care services for families of labor migrants is practically not
regulated. We analyzed migration policy of different countries regarding
migrants and their medical services in order to find out the most
suitable strategy for introduction into Russian practice. The current
economic situation and the trends of international migration pose a
number of problems for Russia related to the realization of the rights
of migrants to health and their medical care, as well as the
preservation of the level of health of Russian citizens and the
prevention of the deterioration of the epidemiological situation. And,
what measures the migration policy will take will largely determine the
security of the country and the quality of Russian human capital.},

Title = {Forging a new identity: a qualitative study exploring the experiences of
UK-based physician associate students},
Journal = {BMJ OPEN},
Year = {2020},
Volume = {10},
Number = {1},
Month = {JAN},
Abstract = {Objective
To explore student physician associates' (PAs) experiences of clinical
training to ascertain the process of their occupational identity
formation.
Setting
The role of the PA is relatively new within the UK. There has been a
rapid expansion in training places driven by National Health Service
(NHS) workforce shortages, with the Department of Health recently
announcing plans for the General Medical Council to statutorily regulate
PAs. Given such recent changes and the relative newness of their role,
PAs are currently establishing their occupational identity. Within
adjacent fields, robust identity development improves well-being and
career success. Thus, there are implications for recruitment, retention
and workplace performance. This qualitative study analyses the views of
student PAs to ascertain the process of PA occupational identity
formation through the use of one-to-one semistructured interviews. A
constructivist grounded theory approach to data analysis was taken.
Research was informed by communities of practice and socialisation
theory.
Participants
A theoretical sample of 19 PA students from two UK medical schools
offering postgraduate PA studies courses.
Results
A conceptual model detailing student PA identity formation is proposed.
Factors facilitating identity formation include clinical exposure and
continuity. Barriers to identity formation include ignorance and
negativity regarding the PA role. Difficulties navigating identity
formation and lacking support resulted in identity dissonance.
Conclusions
Although similarities exist between PA and medical student identity
formation, unique challenges exist for student PAs. These include
navigating a new role and poor access to PA role models. Given this, PA
students are turning to medicine for their identity. Educators must
provide support for student PA identity development in line with this
work's recommendations. Such support is likely to improve the job
satisfaction and retention of PAs within the UK NHS.},

Title = {Influence of national culture and context on healthcare workers'
perceptions of infection prevention in Greek neonatal intensive care
units},
Journal = {JOURNAL OF HOSPITAL INFECTION},
Year = {2020},
Volume = {104},
Number = {4},
Pages = {552-559},
Month = {APR},
Abstract = {Background: Healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) in neonatal
intensive care units (NICUs) result in increased morbidity, mortality
and healthcare costs. HAI rates in Greek NICUs are among the highest in
Europe. There is a need to identify the factors that influence the
transmission of HAIs and implementation of prevention interventions in
this setting.
Aim: To understand healthcare workers' perceptions about HAI prevention
in Greek NICUs.
Methods: Qualitative interviews were conducted with NICU staff
(physicians and nurses) and infection prevention stakeholders
(infectious diseases physicians and infection control nurses) working in
three hospitals in Athens. Interviews were conducted in Greek,
transcribed and translated into English, and analysed using a modified
grounded theory approach.
Findings: Interviews were conducted with 37 respondents (20 physicians
and 17 nurses). Four main barriers to HAI prevention were identified:
(1) resource limitations leading to understaffing and cramped space; (2)
poor knowledge about HAI prevention; (3) Greek-specific cultural norms,
including hierarchy-driven decisions, a reluctance for public workers to
do more than they are paid for, a belief that personal experience trumps
evidence-based knowledge, and reactive rather than proactive approaches
to societal challenges; and (4) lack of a national infection prevention
infrastructure. Respondents believed that these barriers could be
overcome through organized initiatives, high-quality HAI performance
data, interpersonal interactions to build engagement around HAI
prevention, and leveraging the hierarchy to promote change from the `top
down'.
Conclusion: Implementing HAI prevention interventions in Greek NICUs
will require consideration of contextual features surrounding the
delivery of care, with particular attention paid to national culture.

Title = {Models of maternity care in rural environments: Barriers and attributes
of interprofessional collaboration with midwives},
Journal = {MIDWIFERY},
Year = {2013},
Volume = {29},
Number = {6},
Pages = {646-652},
Month = {JUN},
Abstract = {Objectives: interprofessional primary maternity care has emerged as one
potential solution to the current health human resource shortage in many
developed nations. This study explores the barriers to and facilitators
of interprofessional models of maternity care between physicians,
nurses, and midwives in rural British Columbia, Canada, and the changes
that need to occur to facilitate such models.
Design: a qualitative, exploratory framework guided data collection and
analysis.
Setting: four rural communities in British Columbia, Canada. Two rural
communities had highly functional and collaborative interprofessional
relationships between midwives and physicians, and two communities
lacked interprofessional activities.
Participants: 55 participants were interviewed and 18 focus groups were
conducted with midwives, physicians, labour and delivery nurses, public
health nurses, community-based providers, birthing women,
administrators, and decision makers.
Findings: in models of interprofessional collaboration, primary
maternity care providers - physicians, midwives, nurses - work together
to meet the needs of birthing women in their community. There are
significant barriers to such collaboration given the disciplinary
differences between care provider groups including skill sets,
professional orientation, and funding models. Data analysis confirmed
that interprofessional tensions are exacerbated in geographically
isolated rural communities, due to the stress of practicing maternity
care in a fee-for-service model with limited health resources and a
small patient caseload. The participants we spoke with identified
specific barriers to interprofessional collaboration, including
physician and nurses' negative perceptions of midwifery and homebirth,
inequities in payment between physicians and midwives, differences in
scopes of practice, confusion about roles and responsibilities, and a
lack of formal structures for supporting shared care practice.
Participants expressed that successful interprofessional collaboration
hinged on strong, mutually respectful relationships between the care
providers and a clear understanding of team members' roles and
responsibilities.
Conclusions and implications for practice: interpersonal conflicts
between primary maternity care providers in rural communities were
underpinned by macro-level, systemic barriers to interprofessional
practice. Financial, legal, and regulatory barriers to interprofessional
collaboration must be resolved if there is to be increased collaboration
between rural midwives and physicians. Key recommendations include
policy changes to resolve differences in scope of practice and
inequitable funding between rural midwives and physicians. (C) 2012

Journal = {NORA-NORDIC JOURNAL OF FEMINIST AND GENDER RESEARCH},

Volume = {28},
Number = {2, SI},
Pages = {99-112},
Abstract = {This paper contributes a Swedish perspective on how selected feminist
movement ideas, such as women's right to economic independence, are
being appropriated by neoliberal policies. Swedish governments have
argued that opening up the publicly funded eldercare sector to private
providers would advance entrepreneurship undertaken by women and
immigrants. In this article, we critically explore the ambiguity of the
gender equality and ethnic diversity arguments used to justify private
sector involvement in publicly funded eldercare in Sweden. We draw upon
Carol Bacchi's theory of policies as gendering practices to argue that
the discourses of equal opportunity underpinning the politics of
entrepreneurship in the home care sector obscure and recreate
inequalities. Our analysis, based on interviews with politicians, public
officials and interest organizations involved in the market for Swedish
eldercare, shows that the politics of entrepreneurship in the home care
sector privilege entrepreneurs who reflect the white masculine gendering
of entrepreneurship and disadvantage those with subject positions
deviating from the normative entrepreneur. Our findings suggest that
policy-engineered entrepreneurship is a poor tool in the struggle for
gender equality, as this kind of policymaking is likely to operate in
tandem with gendering and racializing practices that impede
socioeconomic progress.},

Abstract = {Modern methods of regulating migration processes in EU states include a
wide variety of adapted, transformed under the sway of globalization
tools in order to influence the movement of human capital within the
European space. The main purpose of the regulatory policy on migration
flows is the redistribution of professionally competent professionals
between different spheres of life. Herewith, the determining factor in
the effectiveness of such distribution is a rational combination of
stimulating and disincentive levers of influence on the movement of
citizens of different EU countries and taking into account the motives
of such mobility. Modernization of migration management approaches can
be a major economic, social, political and cultural progress of European
countries. The purpose of the research is to conduct a detailed analysis
of existing practices of migration flow management, in particular their
stimulation or containment, and to outline key migration trends formed
under the influence of multicomponent approaches to migration
regulation, transformation of regulatory legislation and changing
priorities of modern society. The research methods:
statistical-analytical method; ARIS method; method of tabular, graphical
and analytical modeling; comparative analysis; systematization,
generalization. Results. Current pan-European methods of regulating
migration processes are insufficiently adapted to the multinational
social-economic space; consequently, there are some disparities in the
distribution of migrants between EU countries, although the overall
dynamics of migration is positive. Fluctuations in the population of
European countries during 2000-2019 and trends in the transformation of
social-economic space confirm the insufficient level of influence of
current methods of regulating migration flows. Along with this, the
presence of a characteristic asymmetry in the distribution of migrants
requires a greater focus on the modernization of regulatory instruments,
in particular, the regulatory mechanism for managing migration
processes. As a result of the conducted study, further prospects for the
implementation of alternative methods of regulating migration processes
in EU states have been outlined; the current and projected limits for
increasing the level of observance of migrants' rights at the European
level have been clarified through the adoption of appropriate regulatory
acts; effective solutions for intensifying the influx of high-quality
labor resources from different countries to EU have been identified. The
research results can be used to study methods of regulating migration
processes in the countries in the global dimension.},

Title = {The gender responsiveness of social entrepreneurship in health-A review
of initiatives by Ashoka fellows},
Journal = {SOCIAL SCIENCE \& MEDICINE},
Year = {2022},
Volume = {293},
Month = {JAN},
Abstract = {There are vocal calls to act on the gender-related barriers and
inequities in global health. Still, there are gaps in implementing
programmes that address and counter the relevant dynamics. As an
approach that focuses on social problems and public service delivery
gaps, social entrepreneurship has the potential to be a closer health
sector partner to tackle and transform the influence of gender in health
to achieve health systems goals better. Nevertheless, social
entrepreneurs' engagement and impact on gender and health remain
understudied. Using the Ashoka Fellows database as a sampling frame in
November 2020 (n = 3352, health n = 129), we identified and reviewed the
work of 21 organizations that implemented gender-responsive
health-related programmes between 2000 and 2020. We applied the UNU-IIGH
6-I Analytic Framework to review the gender issues, interventions,
included populations, investments, implementation, and impact in each
organization. We found that a low proportion of fellows engage in
gender-responsive health programming (< 1\%). Many organizations operate
in low-and middle-income countries (16/21). The gender-responsive
programmes include established health sector practices, to address
gendered-cultural dynamics and deliver people-centred resources and
services. Interestingly, most organizations self-identify as NGOs and
rely on traditional grant funding. Fewer organizations (6/21) adopt
market-based and income-generating solutions a missed opportunity to
actualise the potential of social entrepreneurship as an innovative
health financing approach. There were few publicly available impact
evaluations-a gap in practice established in social entrepreneurship.
All organizations implemented programmes at community levels, with some
cross-sectoral, structural, and policy-level initiatives. Most focused
on sexual and reproductive health and gender-based violence for
predominantly populations of women and girls. Closer partnerships
between social entrepreneurs and gender experts in the health sector can
provide reciprocally beneficial solutions for cross-sectorally and
community designed innovations, health financing, evidence generation
and impact tracking that improve the gender-responsiveness of health
programmes, policies, and systems.},

Abstract = {The polyculture among vegetables is an activity that to have good
results, needs a proper planning. Although it often requires more labor,
has several advantages over monoculture, among them is that polycultures
are generally are more productive, provide with productivity of various
plant constituents and a more balanced human diet, contribute to
economic return, economic and yield stability, social benefits and
farmer's direct participation in decision-making. The objective of this
study was to evaluate agroeconomic indices of polycultures derived from
the combination of two cultivars of lettuce with two cultivars of rocket
in two cultures strip-intercropped with carrot cultivar `Brasilia'
through uni-multivariate approaches in semi-arid Brazil. The
experimental design used was of randomized complete blocks with five
replications and the treatments arranged in a factorial scheme of 2 x 2.
The treatments consisted of the combination of two lettuce cultivars
(Baba de Verao and Taina) with two rocket cultivars (Cultivada and Folha
Larga) in two cultures associated with carrot cv. Brasilia. hi each
block were grown plots with two lettuce cultivars and two rocket
cultivars, and carrot in sole crop. In each system was determined the
lettuce leaf yield, rocket green mass yield and carrot commercial yield.
Agrieconomic indices such as operational cost, gross and net income,
monetary advantage, rate of return, profit margin, land equivalent ratio
and yield efficiency for DEA were used to measure the efficiency of
intercropping systems. In the bicropping of lettuce and rocket

Title = {Combined effects of gender affirmation and economic hardship on
vulnerability to HIV: a qualitative analysis among US adult transgender
women},
Journal = {BMC PUBLIC HEALTH},
Year = {2020},
Volume = {20},
Number = {1},
Month = {MAY 26},
Abstract = {Background Transgender women ({''}trans women{''}), particularly
African-American and Latina trans women, have disproportionately high
prevalence of HIV in the United States (U.S.). In order to decrease
gender dysphoria and overcome discrimination, trans women affirm their
gender through social and medical transition, often in contexts of
economic hardship and sexual risk. This study qualitatively examined how
gender-affirming behaviors enhance or diminish vulnerability to HIV in
light of structural and economic barriers to gender transition. Methods
We conducted individual interviews with 19 adult trans women in two U.S.
cities (Richmond, VA and St. Louis, MO) who reported one or more sexual
risk behaviors and recent economic hardship related to
employment/income, housing, or food security. Interviews were recorded,
transcribed, and analyzed using thematic content analysis. Results The
majority (74\%) of trans women were racial/ethnic minorities with mean
age of 26.3 years. Gender-affirming behaviors varied with 58\% of trans
women having legally changed their name and gender marker; 79\% having
initiated hormone therapy; and 11\% having not initiated any medical or
legal changes. None had undertaken surgical changes. Findings suggested
that the process of gender transitioning resulted in both increasing and
decreasing HIV risk. The high need for gender affirmation by male sex
partners contributed to trans women's exposure to sexual
objectification, sexual risk behaviors, and conflicting interests in HIV
prevention messaging. Loss of housing and employment due to transition
along with the high costs of transition products and medical visits
increased reliance on sex work and created new obstacles in accessing
HIV services. Trans women experienced lower HIV risk as they acquired
legal and medical transition services, reshaped interactions with sex
partners, and received gender-affirming support by others, including
health providers, employers, peers, and housing professionals. Sexual
abstinence was viewed as a negative consequence of incomplete
transition, although characterized as a period of low HIV risk.
Conclusions Structural and policy initiatives that promote safe gender
transition and economic stability in trans women may play a critical
role in reducing HIV in this population. Addressing the harmful
pressures for U.S. trans women to conform to perceived feminine
stereotypes may also serve an important role.},

Abstract = {A paradoxical feature of China's land reform of 1946-1952 is that it was
conducted far more radically in the north, where land tenure relations
were far less unequal, than in the south where inequality of land tenure
was distinctly more acute. That landlords could only be identified in
south China was attributable to the sharply more active land rental
market there, and the ``single-cut{''} policy of defining the landlords
narrowly as a rentier class. We attribute the predominance of an active
land rental market in south China to three socioeconomic
characteristics: 1) a sharply higher inequality in land distribution, 2)
an organization of agriculture whose efficiency required the
``unsupervised initiatives{''} of family labor, and 3) a distinctly
higher proportion of ``absentee landlords{''}. Our hypothesis of land
rentals being the only variable distinguishing the landlords from the
rich peasants and only in south China is strongly supported by empirical
evidence. (C) 2012 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.},

Abstract = {Research Findings: Family child care providers widely participate in the
Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP), yet their participation
experiences have not been studied. To fill this gap, we used a mixed
methods approach that combined survey data collected from a random
sample of 224 CACFP-participating licensed family child care providers
and in-depth qualitative interviews (n = 40 survey respondents). Working
within a cost-benefit framework, we sampled from Chicago and small
cities and towns in central Illinois in order to compare providers'
perceptions of the benefits and burdens of CACFP participation by
reimbursement level and urban/rural location. Reimbursement rate was
related to providers' perceptions of the adequacy of the reimbursement
and how difficult it was to purchase food that met program requirements.
Location was related to providers' perceptions of how difficult it was
to prepare meals that met program requirements. Practice or Policy: Our
findings suggest modifications to reduce inequities in who has access to
the higher reimbursement rate. How providers qualify for the higher
reimbursement rate could be reconsidered to ensure that providers
outside of urban areas are not disadvantaged. Sponsoring organizations
could expand efforts to provide technical assistance and nutrition
education, especially for providers outside of urban areas.},

Title = {Mapping chemical structure-activity information of HAART-drug cocktails
over complex networks of AIDS epidemiology and socioeconomic data of US
counties},
Journal = {BIOSYSTEMS},
Year = {2015},
Volume = {132},
Pages = {20-34},
Month = {JUN},
Abstract = {Using computational algorithms to design tailored drug cocktails for
highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) on specific populations is
a goal of major importance for both pharmaceutical industry and public
health policy institutions. New combinations of compounds need to be
predicted in order to design HAART cocktails. On the one hand, there are
the biomolecular factors related to the drugs in the cocktail
(experimental measure, chemical structure, drug target, assay organisms,
etc.); on the other hand, there are the socioeconomic factors of the
specific population (income inequalities, employment levels, fiscal
pressure, education, migration, population structure, etc.) to study the
relationship between the socioeconomic status and the disease. In this
context, machine learning algorithms, able to seek models for problems
with multi-source data, have to be used. In this work, the first
artificial neural network (ANN) model is proposed for the prediction of
HAART cocktails, to halt AIDS on epidemic networks of U.S. counties
using information indices that codify both biomolecular and several
socioeconomic factors. The data was obtained from at least three major
sources. The first dataset included assays of anti-HIV chemical
compounds released to ChEMBL. The second dataset is the AIDSVu database
of Emory University. AIDSVu compiled AIDS prevalence for >2300 U.S.
counties. The third data set included socioeconomic data from the U.S.
Census Bureau. Three scales or levels were employed to group the
counties according to the location or population structure codes: state,
rural urban continuum code (RUCC) and urban influence code (UIC). An
analysis of >130,000 pairs (network links) was performed, corresponding
to AIDS prevalence in 2310 counties in U.S. vs. drug cocktails made up
of combinations of ChEMBL results for 21,582 unique drugs, 9 viral or
human protein targets, 4856 protocols, and 10 possible experimental
measures. The best model found with the original data was a linear
neural network (LNN) with AUROC > 0.80 and accuracy, specificity, and
sensitivity approximate to 77\% in training and external validation
series. The change of the spatial and population structure scale (State,
UIC, or RUCC codes) does not affect the quality of the model. Unbalance
was detected in all the models found comparing positive/negative cases
and linear/non-linear model accuracy ratios. Using synthetic minority
over-sampling technique (SMOTE), data pre-processing and
machine-learning algorithms implemented into the WEKA software, more
balanced models were found. In particular, a multilayer perceptron (MLP)
with AUROCC 97.4\% and precision, recall, and F-measure >90\% was found.

Journal = {SAGE OPEN},
Year = {2022},
Volume = {12},
Number = {3},
Month = {JUL},
Abstract = {Globally, young people are a major demographic group and a key
constituency in socioeconomic policy considerations. However, in a
neoliberal era, the social inclusion of youth is in jeopardy. This
qualitative study explored young people's connectedness to community and
opportunities for social inclusion in Newfoundland and Labrador. The
perspectives of social capital, social exclusion, and sense of community
provided a theoretical framework for the study. A purposive sample of 23
youth aged 15 to 24 years provided data through interviews, which we
analyzed inductively, using thematic analysis. We found that young
people connected to their communities through informal associations and
non-profit organizations. These structures provided networks of
supportive relationships and inclusive spaces, where young people felt a
sense of belonging, and had opportunities for participation.
Opportunities took the form of resources and activities that promoted
personal growth and community building. For example, through
associations and non-profit organizations, participants engaged in
general educational development, entrepreneurial training, part-time and
volunteer work, and advocacy. However, participants also reported some
barriers to inclusion in their communities. Personal level factors, such
as illness and environmental level factors, such as low-income and
social stigma were barriers to inclusion. These findings provide a basis
for policymakers and practitioners to promote youth social inclusion in
Newfoundland and Labrador.},

Labor Market Participation in Melbourne, Australia},
Journal = {KRITIKA KULTURA},
Year = {2016},
Number = {26},
Pages = {523-607},
Month = {FEB},
Abstract = {Through the lens of culture intersecting with gender, race and class,
this monograph looks at the reconfiguration of skilled worker identity
of 20 Philippines-born women who have immigrated to Australia. Through
interviews and analyses of their lived experiences, it attempts to
comprehend the complexity of their unemployment, from their encounter
with the labor market, to their attempts in breaking into the workforce.
It contextualizes the institutional disadvantages and discrimination
befalling migrant women of non-English speaking background, as well as
housework and mothering responsibilities they continue to resist at
home. The complex interaction of the women's higher education, English
language proficiency, their sense of purpose and other personal
resources-all assisted in reframing their subordinated identity, and
recapturing their careers. The women risked taking jobs lower than their
qualifications, took further studies, went through rigorous
accreditation, and acquired local experience, as stepping stones to
regain their professions and subsequently their middle-class status.
Their journey, however, is not without severe difficulties. By using
agency and privilege, this monograph argues that the women epitomized
the classical modernist ideology of the self within a capitalist system.
They were aware of structural disadvantages and discriminatory
practices, but they found ways of working within these limitations,
which results to masking the hardships they endured. The study debunks
the effectiveness of the notion that individual's capacity over the
state ``to enterprise themselves{''} is a success strategy.},

Abstract = {OBJECTIVE. The purpose of this work was to improve asthma-related health
outcomes in an ethnically and geographically disparate population of
economically disadvantaged school-aged children by using a team-based
approach using continuous quality improvement and community health
workers.
PATIENTS AND METHODS. A demonstration project was conducted with 7
community clinics treating similar to 3000 children with asthma 5 to 18
years of age. The overall clinic population with asthma was assessed for
care-process changes through random cross-sectional chart reviews at
baseline and 24 months ( N = 560). A subset of patients with either
moderate or severe persistent asthma or poorly controlled asthma ( N =
405) was followed longitudinally for specific asthma-related clinical
outcomes, satisfaction with care, and confidence managing asthma by
family interview at baseline and at 12 or 24 months. Patient-centered
and care-process outcomes included patient/parent assessment of quality
of care and confidence in self-management, asthma action plan review,
and documentation of guideline-based indicators of quality of care.
Direct clinical outcomes included daytime and nighttime symptoms, use of
rescue medications, acute care and emergency department visits,
hospitalizations, and missed school days. Each clinic site's degree of
adherence to the intervention model was evaluated and ranked to examine
the correlation between model adherence and outcomes.
RESULTS. Cross-sectional data showed clinic-wide improvements in the
documentation of asthma severity, review of action plans, health
services use, and asthma symptoms. At follow-up in the longitudinal
sample, fewer patients reported acute visits, emergency department
visits, hospitalizations, frequent daytime and nighttime symptoms, and
missed school days compared with baseline. More patients reported
excellent or very good quality of care and confidence in asthma
self-management. Linear regression analysis of the clinical sites' model
adherence ranks against site-level combined scores estimating overall
outcomes, clinical outcomes, and improvements in clinical care processes
showed significant linear correlations with R-2 >= 0.60.
CONCLUSIONS. The demonstration produced major improvements in
asthma-related care processes and clinical outcomes. Closer adherence to
the demonstration model was directly associated with better outcomes.},

ENGAGEMENT AND SOCIAL POLICY INFLUENCE WITHIN THE AMERICAN CATHOLIC
CHURCH},
Journal = {FIELDWORK IN RELIGION},
Year = {2016},
Volume = {11},
Number = {2},
Pages = {137-156},
Abstract = {The Catholic Church, constructed on an all-male clerical model, is a
hierarchical and gendered institution, creating barriers to female
leadership. In interviewing members of the clergy and women religious of
the faith, this article examines how female non-ordained and male
clerical religious leaders engage and influence social policy. It
specifically addresses how women religious maneuver around the
institutional constraints of the Church, in order to take action on
social issues and effect change. In adding to the scholarship on this
topic, I argue that part of the strategy of women religious in
navigating barriers of the institutional Church is not only knowing when
to act outside of the formal hierarchy, but realizing when it is in the
benefit of their social policy objectives to collaborate with it. This
maneuvering may not always safeguard women religious from institutional
scrutiny, as seen by the 2012 Doctrinal Assessment of the Leadership
Conference of Women Religious, but instead captures the tension between
female religious and the clergy. It also highlights how situations of
institutional scrutiny can have positive implications for female
religious leaders, their policy goals and congregations. Finally, this
examination shows how even when women are appointed to leadership posts
within the institutional Church, they can face limitations of acceptance
and other constraints that are different from their female religious
counterparts working within their own respective religious congregations
or outside organizations.},

Month = {MAR 16},
Abstract = {Training nonspecialists in providing evidence-based psychological
interventions (i.e. task-sharing) can effectively increase community
access to psychological support. However, task-sharing interventions for
this purpose are rarely used at scale. The aim of this study was to
examine the factors influencing the potential for scaling up (i.e.
scalability) of a task-sharing psychological intervention called Problem
Management Plus (PM+) for Syrian refugees in Jordan. Semi-structured
individual (n = 17) and group interviews (n = 20) were conducted with
stakeholders knowledgeable about PM+ and the mental health system for
Syrian refugees in Jordan. Using `system innovation perspective', this
study conceptualized the context as landscape developments, and systemic
considerations were divided into culture (shared ways of thinking) and
structure (ways of organizing). Political momentum was identified as a
landscape trend likely facilitating scaling up, while predicted
reductions in financial aid was regarded as a constraint. In terms of
culture, the medicalized approach to mental health, stigma and gender
were reported barriers for scaling up PM+. Using non-stigmatizing
language and offering different modalities, childcare options and
sessions outside of working hours were suggestions to reduce stigma,
accommodate individual preferences and increase the demand for PM+. In
relation to structure, the feasibility of scaling up PM+ largely depends
on the ability to overcome legal barriers, limitations in human and
financial resources and organizational challenges. We recommend
sustainable funding to be made available for staff, training,
supervision, infrastructure, coordination, expansion and evaluation of
`actual' scaling up of PM+. Future research may examine the local
feasibility of various funding, training and supervision models. Lessons
learned from actual scaling up of PM+ and similar task-sharing
approaches need to be widely shared.},

Abstract = {This paper addresses the theme of youth out-migration from rural
Australia, in the context of recent policy discussions about creativity
and its role in regional development. Ethnographic fieldwork in one
rural location - the New South Wales Far North Coast - is drawn upon to
highlight how creative industries are being cast as a potential way of
promoting cultural activities and jobs for young people, and in turn,
how they might be imagined as a means to mitigate youth out-migration.
Yet, creative industries have contradictory employment and social
outcomes. Creative industries are likely to generate higher rates of
youth participation in economic activities than public data reveal.
However, strategies for future job growth should also consider the
limitations and instabilities of creative industry employment. Second,
and more broadly, the paper discusses those socio-cultural dimensions of
nascent creative industries that may have a more substantial impact when
conceived as part of strategies to stem youth exodus from rural areas.
Creative activities may contribute to rural development in indirect
ways, especially if linked to policy goals of increased tolerance of
youth activities, better provision of cultural services, and improved
well-being for young people. While formal job-creation may be limited,
creative industries could mitigate some of the impacts of youth
migration to cities by enriching regional social life and mediating
perceptions of the advantages and drawbacks of rural versus urban life.
This kind of policy imagination requires a shift in attitudes towards
young people and a more genuine commitment to encourage young people to
feel that they belong in non-metropolitan areas.},

Abstract = {Considering the increasing number of women entering the accounting
profession, it is timely to explore the inequalities that still exist
and consider what policy processes continue to forge inequalities
between men and women. Through a systematic literature review (SLR) of
accounting and management journals during the period 1994-2017, we
assessed the different dynamics that have shaped inequalities between
men and women, presenting both the employee and employer perspectives of
professional enhancement. The study was framed around conceptualizations
of gendered organizations and highlighted how cultural and social
practices impact men and women differently. Our study found there are
still organization practices that have profound gendered effects. Our
study shows that there are contemporary human resource (HR) practices of
recruitment, selection, and advancement; perceptions of visibility and
invisibility at work; motherhood and childcare responsibilities; and
finally, discourses of the glass ceiling that constitute organization
and societal barriers that limit women's career progression. Most
importantly we reveal that constraints nowadays are similar to those
identified in the 90s. We explored these gendered constructions and
suggest relevant HR strategies that can aid women's advancement.},

Title = {Core State Preconception Health Indicators - Pregnancy Risk Assessment
Monitoring System and Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System, 2009},

Abstract = {Problem/Condition: Promoting preconception health can potentially
improve women's health and pregnancy outcomes. Evidence-based
interventions exist to reduce many maternal behaviors and chronic
conditions that are associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes such as
tobacco use, alcohol use, inadequate folic acid intake, obesity,
hypertension, and diabetes. The 2006 national recommendations to improve
preconception health included monitoring improvements in preconception
health by maximizing public health surveillance (CDC. Recommendations to
improve preconception health and health care-United States: a report of
the CDC/ATSDR Preconception Care Work Group and the Select Panel on
Preconception Care. MMWR 2006; 55{[}No. RR-6]).
Reporting Period Covered: 2009 for 38 indicators; 2008 for one
indicator.
Description of Surveillance Systems: The Pregnancy Risk Assessment
Monitoring System (PRAMS) is an ongoing state-and population-based
surveillance system designed to monitor selected self-reported maternal
behaviors, conditions, and experiences that occur shortly before,
during, and after pregnancy among women who deliver live-born infants.
The Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS) is an ongoing
state-based telephone survey of noninstitutionalized adults aged >= 18
years in the United States that collects state-level data on
health-related risk behaviors, chronic conditions, and preventive health
services. This surveillance summary includes PRAMS data from 29
reporting areas (n = 40,388 respondents) and BRFSS data from 51
reporting areas (n = 62,875 respondents) for nonpregnant women of
reproductive age (aged 18-44 years). To establish a comprehensive,
nationally recognized set of indicators to be used for monitoring,
evaluation, and response, a volunteer group of policy and program
leaders and epidemiologists identified 45 core state preconception
health indicators, of which 41 rely on PRAMS or BRFSS as data sources.
This report includes 39 of the 41 core state preconception health
indicators for which data are available through PRAMS or BRFSS. The two
indicators from these data sources that are not described in this report
are human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) testing within a year before the
most recent pregnancy and heavy drinking on at least one occasion during
the preceding month.
Ten preconception health domains are examined: general health status and
life satisfaction, social determinants of health, health care,
reproductive health and family planning, tobacco and alcohol use,
nutrition and physical activity, mental health, emotional and social
support, chronic conditions, and infections. Weighted prevalence
estimates and 95\% confidence intervals (95\% CIs) for 39 indicators are
presented overall and for each reporting area and stratified by age
group (18-24, 25-34, and 35-44 years) and women's race/ethnicity
(non-Hispanic white, non-Hispanic black, non-Hispanic other, and
Hispanic).
Results: This surveillance summary includes data for 39 of 41
indicators: 2009 data for 23 preconception health indicators that were
monitored by PRAMS and 16 preconception health indicators that were
monitored by BRFSS (one BRFSS indicator uses 2008 data). For two of the
indicators that are included in this report (prepregnancy overweight or
obesity and current overweight or obesity), separate measures of
overweight and obesity were reported.
All preconception health indicators varied by reporting area, and most
indicators varied significantly by age group and race/ethnicity.
Overall, 88.9\% of women of reproductive age reported good, very good,
or excellent general health status and life satisfaction (BRFSS). A high
school/general equivalency diploma or higher education (social
determinants of health domain) was reported by 94.7\% of non-Hispanic
white, 92.9\% of non-Hispanic other, 91.1\% of non-Hispanic black, and
70.9\% of Hispanic women (BRFSS). Overall, health-care insurance
coverage during the month before the most recent pregnancy (health-care
domain) was 74.9\% (PRAMS). A routine checkup during the preceding year
was reported by 79.0\% of non-Hispanic black, 65.1\% of non-Hispanic
white, 64.3\% of other, and 63.0\% of Hispanic women (BRFSS). Among
women with a recent live birth (2-9 months since date of delivery),
selected PRAMS results for the reproductive health and family planning,
tobacco and alcohol use, and nutrition domains included several factors.
Although 43\% of women reported that their most recent pregnancy was
unintended (unwanted or wanted to be pregnant later), approximately half
(53\%) of those who were not trying to get pregnant reported not using
contraception at the time of conception. Smoking during the 3 months
before pregnancy was reported by 25.1\% of women, and drinking alcohol 3
months before pregnancy was reported by 54.2\% of women. Daily use of a
multivitamin, prenatal vitamin, or a folic acid supplement during the
month before pregnancy was reported by 29.7\% of women.
Selected BRFSS results included indicators pertaining to the nutrition
and physical activity, emotional and social support, and chronic
conditions domains among women of reproductive age. Approximately one
fourth (24.7\%) of women were identified as being obese according to
body mass index (BMI) on the basis of self-reported height and weight.
Overall, 51.6\% of women reported participation in recommended levels of
physical activity per U. S. Department of Health and Human Services
physical activity guidelines. Non-Hispanic whites reported the highest
prevalence (85.0\%) of having adequate emotional and social support,
followed by other races/ethnicities (74.9\%), Hispanics (70.5\%), and
non-Hispanic blacks (69.7\%). Approximately 3.0\% of persons reported
ever being diagnosed with diabetes, and 10.2\% of women reported ever
being diagnosed with hypertension.
Interpretation: The findings in this report underscore opportunities for
improving the preconception health of U. S. women. Preconception health
and women's health can be improved by reducing unintended pregnancies,
reducing risky behaviors (e. g., smoking and drinking) among women of
reproductive age, and ensuring that chronic conditions are under
control. Evidence-based interventions and clinical practice guidelines
exist to address these risks and to improve pregnancy outcomes and
women's health in general. The results also highlight the need to
increase access to health care for all nonpregnant women of reproductive
age and the need to encourage the use of essential preventive services
for women, including preconception health services. In addition, system
changes in community settings can alleviate health problems resulting
from inadequate social and emotional support and environments that
foster unhealthy lifestyles. Policy changes can promote health equity by
encouraging environments that promote healthier options in nutrition and
physical activity. Finally, variation in the preconception health status
of women by age and race/ethnicity underscores the need for implementing
and scaling up proven strategies to reduce persistent health disparities
among those at highest risk. Ongoing surveillance and research in
preconception health are needed to monitor the influence of improved
health-care access and coverage on women's prepregnancy and
interpregnancy health status, pregnancy and infant outcomes, and health
disparities.
Public Health Action: Public health decision makers, program planners,
researchers, and other key stakeholders can use the state-level PRAMS
and BRFSS preconception health indicators to benchmark and monitor
preconception health among women of reproductive age. These data also
can be used to evaluate the effectiveness of preconception health state
and national programs and to assess the need for new programs, program
enhancements, and policies.},

Abstract = {Understanding the range of factors influencing career and employment
decisions of individuals with disabilities is crucial for policy makers,
businesses, and other stakeholders to support and integrate individuals
with disabilities in the economic and social capital of the Arab-Gulf.
The purpose of this sttudy was to investigate the factors that influence
individuals with disabilities in making decisions about their career and
employment. We explore how Arab adults with disabilities explain their
career and employment decisions experiences, challenges, and barriers.
We interviewed 15 adults with disabilities from four Arab-Gulf
countries: Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, and Saudi Arabia. Our findings reveal
eight factors that influence individuals with disabilities in their
decision-making process about work and their future goals. Two distinct
emerging themes were identified as influencing career and employment
decisions for individuals with disabilities: individual attributes and
environmental factors. Self-determination theory guided our analysis for
this research study. The study provided in-depth understanding of the
factors that impact employment persistence and individuals with
disabilities in the Gulf region. The findings from this base-line study
has implications for transition and self-determination. Thus, the study
discusses ways to improve the quality of services and supports for
individuals with disabilities in the Arab-Gulf and their families.},

Year = {2022},
Volume = {37},
Number = {7-8},
Pages = {NP5774-NP5804},
Month = {APR},
Abstract = {Intimate partner violence (IPV) impacts career development and
negatively influences employment prospects, education attainment, and
financial earnings; yet there is a gap in research exploring the
experiences of employment-seeking from the perspectives of survivors. An
intersectional and social ecological perspective provides an important
framework and highlights the multiple intersecting barriers of IPV and
employment ranging from mental health concerns such as trauma, anxiety
and depression to lack of shelter and childcare, limited access to
employment services, and other forms of discrimination. This article
responds to this gap in research and provides findings from a
constructivist grounded theory study of 16 employment-seeking survivors
of IPV. To theorize and understand IPV and employment utilizing an
intersectional and social ecological framework, the following research
question were addressed: (a) What are the contextual barriers or
facilitators that shape the employment-seeking process of survivors of
IPV? (b) How do the experiences of discrimination shape the
employment-seeking experience of survivors of IPV? (c) What employment
services were helpful or unhelpful during the employment-seeking
process? Two main themes emerged from analysis: (a) Multilevel barriers
to employment and (b) Employment barriers/facilitators to
employment-seeking. Findings indicate that survivors of IPV face
multiple barriers to employment at the intrapersonal (e.g., depression,
anxiety, trauma, low self-esteem), interpersonal (e.g., ties to an
abusive partner, responsibilities related to childcare), community (lack
of social support, few employment opportunities, poverty), and
structural/institutionalized levels (e.g., racism, sexism, transphobia).
Implications from these findings illustrate that employment-seeking is
shaped by structural inequities, intersecting stigma, individual level
barriers, and social identities, as well as experience of abuse, which
is an important contribution to IPV research. This study provides
insight into the complexities of employment-seeking and helps improve
knowledge on the social ecological and intersecting barriers of
employment from the perspectives of survivors.},

retrospective study of an Australian national sample},
Journal = {SSM-POPULATION HEALTH},
Year = {2021},
Volume = {16},
Month = {DEC},
Abstract = {Background: Health status is a crucial determinant of an individuals'
labour market outcomes. The present study investigates the association
between obesity and disability with perceived employment discrimination
within Australia.
Methods: A total of 17,174 person-year observations from the 11,079
respondents were analysed using four waves of data from the Household,
Income, and Labour Dynamics in Australia (HILDA) survey. The primary
outcome examined was employment discrimination, using obesity and
disability as the main exposure variables. The longitudinal
random-effects regression technique was applied to investigate the
between-person differences in employment discrimination associated with
obesity and disability.
Results: The findings suggest that more than one in ten (12.68 \%)
Australians experienced employment discrimination. The odds of being
discriminated against while applying for a job were 1.56 times (aOR:
1.56, 95 \% CI: 1.15-2.11) higher for obese than their healthy weight
counterparts in youngest women. Adults with a disability had 1.89 times
(aOR: 1.89, 95 \% CI: 1.65-2.17) higher odds of being discriminated
against than peers without disability.
Conclusion: The results provide evidence that obesity and disability
contribute to employment discrimination in Australia. The findings can
assist government and related agencies to consider the adequacy of
existing discrimination legislation and help organisations to develop
appropriate policies to address discrimination against obese and
disabled people in their workplaces.},

Title = {Help me help you: Identifying and addressing barriers to child support
compliance},
Journal = {CHILDREN AND YOUTH SERVICES REVIEW},
Year = {2020},
Volume = {110},
Month = {MAR},
Abstract = {Many custodial mothers and their children rely on child support to meet
basic needs; yet, most do not receive all of the support they are owed.
Understanding why some fathers do not meet their formal support
obligations is important for the well-being of children in single-parent
families. Research about noncustodial fathers' compliance with formal
support obligations has focused predominantly on quantitative analyses
of individual, family, and structural factors affecting compliance, with
a more limited body of qualitative work exploring noncustodial father
perspectives. Generally missing are the perspectives of staff who work
with noncustodial parents on overcoming compliance barriers. Staff
provide unique and useful insights, given their vantage point from
within systems and across fathers. However, staff perspectives alone are
inadequate for understanding the full context of noncustodial parent
experiences, as noncustodial parents possess a unique view into the
child support system as customers.
This article contributes to the evidence base on barriers to compliance
with formal child support obligations by the sharing perspectives of
staff who work with noncustodial fathers struggling to find work and pay
child support on overcoming these barriers, and comparing their
perspectives to those of noncustodial fathers. Data were gathered
through interviews and surveys with child support, employment, and
parenting staff conducted for the Child Support Noncustodial Parent
Employment Demonstration, and are compared to perspectives of fathers
gathered through focus groups for the same evaluation (Vogel, 2020).
Results indicate five types of practical, system-based, and experiential
factors contributing to noncompliance: (1) an array of barriers to
employment; (2) insufficient income to meet obligations; (3) child
support system-initiated barriers; (4) resistance to paying support
without visitation access; and (5) prior interactions with the child
support system.
Findings suggest a number of policy changes that could help facilitate
compliance among struggling noncustodial fathers, including: access to
services to address practical barriers to work; system-level health
care, child care, public infrastructure, and criminal justice reforms;
administrative and statutory changes within child support to help
address high burden orders, enforcement actions that impede employment,
and state-owed arrearages; and providing pathways to visitation when
safe and appropriate.},

indicators of need; and (2) how rate and frequency of service use in
Australia related to level of need, then to discuss the findings in
light of recent developments in Australian Mental Health Policy and
other epidemiological and services research findings.
Methods. Data from the Australian National Survey of Mental Health and
Wellbeing (NSMHWB) 2007 was analysed.
Results. Most people using mental health services had evident indicators
of need for mental health care (MHC), and most of those with lower
evident levels of need did not make heavy use of services. Only a small
proportion of individuals without any disorders or need indicators
received MHC (4\%). Although this latter group comprises a fair
proportion of service users when extrapolating to the Australian
population (16\%), the vast majority of these individuals only sought
brief primary-care or counselling treatment rather than consultations
with psychiatrists. Access and frequency of MHC consultations were
highest for people with diagnosed lifetime disorders, followed by people
with no diagnosed disorders but other need indicators, and least for
people with no identified need indicators. Limitations include some
disorders not assessed in interview and constraints based on survey size
to investigate subgroups defined, for instance, by socioeconomic
advantage and disadvantage individually or by characteristics of area.
Conclusions. MHC for individuals with no recognised disorders or other
reasonable need for such care may be occurring but if so is likely to be
an area-specific phenomenon. Rather than revealing a large national pool
of treatment resources being expended on the so-called worried well',
the findings suggested a generally appropriate dose-response
relationship between need indicators and service use. Definitive
ascertainment of area-specific disparities in this national pattern
would require a different survey approach. Government proposals for
widespread introduction of stepped-care models that may seek to divert
patients from existing treatment pathways need to be implemented with
care and well informed by local data.},

Title = {The gendered impacts of technological change for public transport
workers in the Global South},
Journal = {RESEARCH IN TRANSPORTATION BUSINESS AND MANAGEMENT},
Year = {2019},
Volume = {31},
Month = {JUN},
Abstract = {The automation and digitisation of work are heavily impacting on the
public transport workforce worldwide. Many of the jobs affected are
those typically done by women. Yet much discussion about the future of
work in public transport is gender blind, or considers women primarily
as users of public transport. This paper draws on original research
commissioned by the International Transport Workers Federation (ITF) to
address this gap, based on five cities that have introduced changes to
public transport with significant implications for women's employment -
Bangkok, Bogota, Cape Town, Mexico City and Nairobi. It was a
qualitative study involving 164 interviews in five cities, primarily
with women transport workers but also union representatives, community
organisations, policy makers and employers. It finds both opportunities
from and risks to women's employment, including the chance to move from
informal work to new formal employment, as well as job loss from
integrated fare payment systems. It considers the possibility of
breaking down traditional patterns of occupational gender segregation in
public transport when new systems or technologies are introduced.
However in order for women to move into traditionally male jobs such as
driving in greater numbers, several barriers must be addressed, such as
gender stereotyping, violence at work and working hours and shift
patterns. The paper offers some suggestions for how unions, employers,
transport authorities and funders can address such barriers.},

Abstract = {In this paper we analyze the effect of inequality on school enrollment,
preferred tax rate and expenditure per student in developing countries;
when parents can choose between child labor, public schooling or private
schooling. We present a model in which parents make schooling decisions
for their children, weighing the utility benefit of having a child with
formal public or private education versus the forgone income from child
labor or household work. Parents vote over the preferred tax rate to
finance freely provided public education. The utility benefit of an
educated child is proportional to expenditure per student, so that there
is congestion in public school. We find that when parents can send their
children to work or to private school, high inequality leads to exit
from public education at both ends of the income distribution. Thus high
inequality reduces the support for public education, leading to a low
tax rate and expenditure per student. Exit from public education results
in both high child labor and a large fraction of students attending
private school. In fact there is a threshold level of inequality above
which there is no longer support for public education. In addition we
explore the implications for the design of foreign aid. The results
suggest that foreign aid policies should focus on promoting school
attendance rather than increasing school resources, as the later policy
might be offset by a reduction in the recipient country's fiscal effort,
with little impact on outcomes.},

Abstract = {This study examines challenges faced by refugee new parents from Africa
in Canada. Refugee new parents from Zimbabwe (n = 36) and Sudan (n = 36)
were interviewed individually about challenges of coping concurrently
with migration and new parenthood and completed loneliness and
trauma/stress measures. Four group interviews with refugee new parents
(n = 30) were subsequently conducted. Participants reported isolation,
loneliness, and stress linked to migration and new parenthood. New
gender roles evoked marital discord. Barriers to health-related services
included language. Compounding challenges included discrimination, time
restrictions for financial support, prolonged immigration and family
reunification processes, uncoordinated government services, and
culturally insensitive policies. The results reinforce the need for
research on influences of refugees' stressful experiences on parenting
and potential role of social support in mitigating effects of stress
among refugee new parents. Language services should be integrated within
health systems to facilitate provision of information, affirmation, and
emotional support to refugee new parents. Our study reinforces the need
for culturally appropriate services that mobilize and sustain support in
health and health related (e.g., education, employment, immigration)

Abstract = {An estimated more than one billion people, or 15\% of the world's
population live with some form of disability (WHO). The condition of
their life depends very much on the level of integration into the labour
market. According to the International Labour Organization (ILO) 72.3\%
of disabled people are at the working age of between 15-64. (1) Disabled
people are more likely to experience adverse economic outcomes than
persons without disabilities such as lower wage rates, weak employment
opportunities, unavailability of supporting tools and technologies,
accessibility, and non-adopted means of communication. Workplace
Inclusion aims to remove barriers to ensure all employees with or
without disabilities to enjoy full participation in a workplace which
supports the future success of business and economy. The Project WI4.0
focuses on the improvement of workplace inclusion of people with
disabilities.
Workplace Inclusion means to build up a workplace culture that builds
respect, fosters inclusiveness, promotes diversity and embraces the
unique skills and qualities of all employees of a company. Workplace
Inclusion encompasses many positive aspects of life. It is about
acknowledging the diverse skills and perspectives that people may bring
to the workplace because of their cultural background or their
disability. The aim is to remove barriers to ensure all employees enjoy
full participation in a workplace which supports the development and
achievement of well informed and culturally appropriate business
outcomes. It also involves recognizing the value of individual
differences and managing them in the workplace.},

Abstract = {This study aims to explore employers' attitudes and perceptions in
hiring and retaining people with physical disabilities. Semi-structured
interviews were carried out with eleven human resource managers working
in the private sector of Islamabad. Transcripts comprising participants
verbatim were analyzed using Thematic Analysis and a descriptive
approach. The reliability of the research was established by ensuring
credibility, dependability, transferability, and conformability.
Inter-rater reliability was found satisfactory. Findings show six major
themes namely employers' attitude, policy awareness and implementation,
perceived concerns and challenges by employers, barriers to employment
of people with disability (PWD), provision of reasonable accommodation
and, career development and retention policy. The research findings
indicate that human resource managers generally have socially desirable,
favorable attitudes towards the employment of people with disabilities.
However, in-depth exploration indicated either attitudinal barriers or
apprehensions to hire PWD due to the lack of resources and limitations
in policy implementation. Findings show that small and medium-sized
organizations face greater challenges in hiring and retaining PWD.
Further, a dire need for governmental and legislative support to the
employers is highlighted. Implications of research findings have been
discussed.},

Title = {The gendering of political and civic participation among Colombian
migrants in London},
Journal = {ENVIRONMENT AND PLANNING A-ECONOMY AND SPACE},
Year = {2011},
Volume = {43},
Number = {7},
Pages = {1499-1513},
Month = {JUL},
Abstract = {In this paper we examine how Colombian migrants participate in formal
and informal political and civic activities in London. Drawing on
qualitative and quantitative research conducted between 2005 and 2009,
we explore how gender regimes change as people move across borders and
how this affects political and civic participation. Although the
gendered patterns of participation partly reflect research elsewhere, in
terms of men's stronger involvement in formal and transnational
activities and women's greater participation in informal politics and
immigrant politics, some important differences emerged. Not only do
formal and informal activities overlap, but class position and
life-course stage as well as immigration status affect these processes.
Although middle-class women were able to take advantage of opportunities
for formal political participation in London and transnationally,
working-class women gained the most from changing gender regimes,
exercising increased control over their lives through their
disproportionate participation with migrant-community organisations. In
both cases, however, women's political engagement was easier when
demands on their traditional roles, as mothers in particular, were
lessened later in the life course. Working-class men emerged as the
least active politically and civically, and this was related to working
patterns, feelings of disempowerment and a desire to return home.
Conceptually, we further challenge an unreconstructed political
opportunities structure perspective for explaining migrants' political
mobilisation by arguing for the need to include not only a gendered
approach but also one that explicitly integrates intersectionality into
any analysis. For Colombian migrants in London, although political and
civic participation is far from uniform, there is evidence that
engagement in such activities is important in the lives of many
migrants, and especially for working-class women who appear to have been
the most active in challenging hegernonic gender regimes.},

Journal = {JOURNAL OF ORGANIZATIONAL CHANGE MANAGEMENT},
Year = {2011},
Volume = {24},
Number = {4},
Pages = {464-486},
Abstract = {Purpose - The purpose of this paper is to examine identity
intersectionalities of age, ethnicity, and gender among US professional
women of color working in upper management as they challenge the glass
ceiling in order to change organizations from the inside out.
Design/methodology/approach - Featured are narratives of 36
midlife-aged, middle-class African-American, Asian-American, and
Hispanic women who have built careers in mediated message industries.
Feminism and Foucauldianism provide theoretical underpinning.
Findings - The findings illuminate how midlife-aged women of color
paradoxically resist and accept master narratives of ``less than{''} in
striving to change organizations and achieve their maximum potential.
Organizational glass ceilings remain impenetrable, but women of color
are optimistic that benefits of diverse upper-level managements
ultimately will be embraced. Moreover, overlapping public and private
spheres continue to further complicate career advancement.
Research limitations/implications - Method-inherent limitations include
recognizing that narratives are not generalizable but serve as a point
of departure for future study. Implications for theory building are
offered, as well as ongoing research suggestions such as probing
intra-group differences and expanding dialog to include other unique
identity groups.
Social implications - Of key import for public policy decision making
are research participants' voices how, as beneficiaries of
socio-political movements and legislation spanning nearly five decades,
they still seek to negotiate organizational hierarchies and balance
public and private work spheres.
Originality/value - Heretofore, little scholarly attention has focused
on midlife-aged women of color and glass ceiling barriers in conjunction
with monitoring organizational change. This exploratory study was
designed to address the gap; encouraging policymakers and organizational
leaders to consider these women's unique identities and experiences.},

Title = {Women empowerment: new paradigm shift of Saudi women into labor
workforce},
Journal = {SOCIETY AND BUSINESS REVIEW},
Year = {2022},
Volume = {17},
Number = {1},
Pages = {66-91},
Month = {JAN 27},
Abstract = {Purpose The purpose of this study is to emphasize on women empowerment
that leads to a new paradigm shift of Saudi woman into labor force. This
study also outlines how Saudi Government has formulated several policies
and reforms to empower women in the workplace, especially gender
equality. Also, this study will discourse a clear idea on numerous
measures initiated by Saudi Government on how to empower Saudi women in
the labor force and what would be the impact of women empowerment and
gender equality on Saudi economy. Design/methodology/approach The
research methodology has undertaken the Saudi feminization approach that
emphasizes solely on uplifting women empowerment within the context of
social changes that are arising in Saudi Arabia. The data analyzed comes
from the primary data statistics report that depicts 10 years of data
from general authority for statistics (GaStat) for the period ranging
from 2010-2016 (Q2) and 2016 -2020 along with global gender gap index
(GGGI) for the period of 2006, 2017 and 2020. Additionally, data was
considered from the latest articles, Saudi news, statistics revealed by
``Pew Research Center,{''} international labor organization (ILO, 2020),
which depicts the involvement of Saudi women at international level.
Findings The data were analyzed from GaStat for the period ranging from
2010-2016 (Q2) and 2016-2020 along with GGGI for the period of 2006,
2017 and 2020 that has shown drastic changes in inspiring Saudi women
empowerment pertaining to the labor market, the educational field,
economic participation and gender equality. The most interesting point
was that the total Saudi employed persons, especially males are double
of females' ratio. It depicts that until Q3 and Q4, 2018 females were
still facing unemployment phase and their economic participation was
less in comparison with male Saudis. However, there found to have a new
paradigm shift; rising of Saudi women in various sectors in the year
2019 where unemployment decreased to 5.7\%, labor force participation at
58.8\%. Social implications Saudi Arabia is stringing very hard to
develop its economy over the next decade and beyond and have
strong-minded to strengthen the contribution of women to development of
society and economy. Currently, Saudi women have found ample job
opportunities welcoming them in various sectors. Furthermore, they can
work in numerous professions and fields that were formerly limited to
men. According to Leyal Khalife (2019, July 1) and the statistics
released by ``Pew Research Center,{''} Saudi Arabia has experienced the
highest growth rate - among G20 countries -of women joining the
workforce in the past 20 years. The data revealed that women accounted
for 23\% of Saudi's workforce in 2018 - a rise of 7\% increase since
2018. Finally, today Saudi Arabia has shown the highest growth rate
among G20 states, including Australia, Germany, Brazil and others.
Originality/value The latest reforms emphasizes on minimizing the gender
gap and inspire young girls to build a career path. This procedure

Title = {Investigating the gender pay gap in the Maltese financial and insurance
sector: a macro and micro approach},
Journal = {EQUALITY DIVERSITY AND INCLUSION},
Year = {2023},
Month = {2023 AUG 22},
Abstract = {PurposeAlthough women have advanced in the economic sphere, the gender
pay gap (GPG) remains a persisting problem for gender equality. Using
Acker's theory of gendered organisations, this study strives to gain a
better understanding from a macro and micro approach, how family and
work-related policies, especially family-friendly measures (FFMs), and
their uptake, contribute and maintain the GPG in Malta and specifically
within the Financial and Insurance sector.Design/methodology/approachTwo
research instruments were used. National policy documents were analysed
through the gender lens, followed by structured interviews with HR
managerial participants within this sector.FindingsFindings suggest that
at a macro level, family and work-related policies could be divided into
two broad categories: A set of family-friendly policies that contribute
to the GPG because of their gendered nature, or because the uptake is
mostly taken by women. These include make-work pay policies, which
initially appear to be gender neutral, but which attracted lower
educated inactive women to the Maltese labour market at low pay,
contributing to an increase in the GPG. Second, a set of policies that
take on a gender-neutral approach and help reduce the GPG. These include
policies like the free childcare and after school care scheme that allow
mothers to have a better adherence to the labour market. At the micro
level within organisations, pay discrepancies between women and men were
largely negated and awareness about the issue was low. Here, ``ideal
worker{''} values based on masculine norms seemed to lead to covert
biases towards mothers who shoulder heavier care responsibilities in the
families and make a bigger use of FFMs. Because men are better able to
conform to these gendered values and norms, the GPG persists through
vertical segregation and glass ceilings, among others.Research
limitations/implicationsSince not all the companies in the Eurostat NACE
code list participated in this research, results could not be
generalised but were indicative to future large-scale studies..Practical
implicationsAt the macro and policy level, some FFMs take on a clear
gendered approach. For example, the disparity in length between
maternity (18 weeks) and paternity leave (1 day) reinforces gender roles
and stereotypes, which contribute to the GPG in the long run. While some
FFMs like parental leave, career breaks, urgent family leave, telework,
flexible and reduced hours seem to take on a more gender-neutral
approach, the uptake of FFMs (except childcare) seems to generate
discriminatory behaviour that may affect the GPG. When considering the
make-work pay policies such as the ``in-work benefit{''} and the
``tapering of benefits{''}, this study showed that these policies
attracted lower educated and low-skilled women into the labour market,
which in turn may have further contributed to the increasing GPGs. On
the other hand, the childcare and after school policies relieve working
mothers from caregiving duties, minimising career interruptions,
discriminatory behaviour and overall GPGs.Social implicationsThis study
confirmed that organisations within the Financial and Insurance sector
are gendered and give value to full-time commitment and long working
hours, especially in managerial roles. Managerial positions remain
associated with men because mothers tend to make more use of FFMs such
as parental leave, reduced, flexible hours and teleworking.
Mothers are indirectly penalised for doing so, because in gendered
organisations, the uptake of FFMs conflict with the demands of work and
ideal worker values (Acker, 1990). This maintains the vertical
segregation and widens the GPG within the Financial and Insurance
sector.Originality/valueBy using the gender lens and taking a wider and
more holistic approach from the macro and micro level, this study
highlights how interlinking factors lead to and sustain the GPG in the
Financial and Insurance sector in Malta.},

Abstract = {Income maintenance during unemployment, old age or long-term sickness is
a key facet of welfare provision and an important mediatory factor in
the relationship between socio-economic position and health status.
Since October 2008, the main long-term sickness absence benefit in the
UK (Incapacity Benefit) has been replaced by Employment Support
Allowance. Despite the importance of income maintenance for health and
health inequalities, this change has been largely ignored within public
health circles. After outlining these reforms and providing a historical
policy context, this article utilises welfare reform theory and
empirical literature to argue that these changes represent a broader
international transformation from welfare to workfare states, the
re-emergence of labour discipline, and a political shift in how people
suffering from ill health are categorised as disabled or not and
perceived as `deserving' or `undeserving' of state support. Finally, the
case is made for the need to develop a new critical public health
research and practice agenda around worklessness.},

Abstract = {Asteatosis is common in elderly people due to a decrease in the moisture
content of the epidermal stratum corneum through a loss of skin barrier
function caused by aging. Because itching often accompanies asteatosis,
this condition may cause a decrease in quality of life. Care staff in
elderly care facilities have many opportunities to provide care for
residents. In this study, we examined how educational training on skin
care changed the thoughts and actions of care staff in these facilities
and how these changes impacted the skin conditions of residents. The
subjects for the training were all care staff in facilities because
these staff work most closely with facility residents. We performed skin
care training for the subjects and investigated changes in the skin
conditions of the residents before and after the training. The training
promoted the understanding of skin care among the care staff and
improved the skin symptoms of residents with asteatosis. However, there
were no changes in the severity of itchiness based on a verbal rating
scale and in interviews of residents. This study showed that skin care
training for the care staff in facilities is effective to improve skin
conditions of residents. In addition, it was suggested that a full grasp
of the residents' skin symptoms based upon an interview on itching alone
was difficult, and thus there is a need to observe skin conditions
directly.},

Title = {A Web-Based Intervention for Youth With Physical Disabilities: Comparing
the Role of Mentors in 12- and 4-Week Formats},
Journal = {JMIR PEDIATRICS AND PARENTING},
Year = {2020},
Volume = {3},

Month = {JAN-JUN},
Abstract = {Background: Youths with physical disabilities face many barriers in
society, including social exclusion, stigma, and difficulties finding
employment. Electronic mentoring (e-mentoring) offers a promising
opportunity for youths with disabilities and has the potential to
improve their inclusion while enhancing career outcomes. However, little
is known about the role of mentors in a Web based e-mentoring format to
improve employment outcomes.
Objective: This study aimed to explore the role of mentors in engaging
youths in an e-mentoring intervention and to compare and contrast
mentors' engagement strategies within a 12- and 4-week format.
Methods: This paper drew on a pilot feasibility study, which is a group,
Web-based employment readiness intervention involving a discussion forum
for youths with physical disabilities. Our intervention involved having
trained youth mentors (ie, near-peers who also had a disability) lead
Web-based discussion forums while offering peer support and resources,
which involved 12 modules completed over both a 12- or 4-week format. We
used a mixed method approach including qualitative data (mentor
interviews and discussion forum data) and quantitative data (pre-post
survey data) comparison.
Results: A total of 24 youths participated across 3 e-mentoring
intervention groups: 9 in the 12-week format (mean age 17.7 years {[}SD
1.7]) and 15 in the 4-week format (mean age 19.5 years {[}SD 2.6]), led
by 3 trained youth mentors with disabilities, 2 males and 1 female (mean
age 22 years {[}SD 2.64]). Our findings revealed that mentors engaged
youths in the e-mentoring program by providing informational, emotional,
and tangible support. We noted more instances of mentors providing
advice, empathy, and encouragement in the 12-week format compared with
the 4-week format. We also found fewer examples of providing advice,
developing a rapport, and social support from mentors in the 4-week
format. Our findings revealed no significant differences between the 2
groups regarding time spent in the forum, number of logins, number of
posts, and self-rated engagement.
Conclusions: Mentors in the 12-week and 4-week format engaged
participants differently in providing informational and emotional
support, although there were no differences in tangible support
provided. Mentors reported that the 12-week format was too long and
lacked interaction between participants, whereas the 4-week format felt
rushed and had fewer detailed responses from mentees.},

Abstract = {Historically, the teaching profession was pretty much a man's one in all
cultures due to the universal traditional restriction of women's social
status. However, between the 18th and the 19th centuries some girl
schools appeared in the region; they gave girls not only general
education, but also a governess or elementary teacher profession. The
aim of the article is to determine the specificity of the gender
evolution of the teaching profession in Germany that started in the
beginning of the 19th century and significantly lagged behind in
comparison with other developed countries. By analyzing various sources
(like statistical reports, legislative acts of single German lands
reflecting the organization of education in the 19th and 20th centuries,
scientific studies, periodical press, memoirs and some fiction), the
author sought to identify the leading factors and reasons which pushed
girls to the teaching profession, to characterize the social status of
German female teachers during the two centuries, to determine the
dynamics of educational policy transformations caused by a complex set
of conditions and contradictions in the German society. The basis of the
study of teacher's work feminization was a sociocultural approach to
present the process as a German educational phenomenon. The statistical
method allowed to analyze quantitative data on the progressive increase
of female teachers and staff transformations during some periods of
political and economic changes. With the help of the system-functional
method, the content of measures taken by the regional authorities in
different periods to promote or counter the feminization of the teaching
profession was studied. General scientific methods of analysis,
comparison and generalization allowed to make scientific conclusions on
the topic. As a result, it was determined that the gender image of the
German teacher began to change from the beginning of the 19th century:
more and more women appeared in the teaching profession, both nuns and
laywomen. Women chose to become teachers under pressure from financial
circumstances and public opinion, according to which educational work
was considered as the only acceptable one for unmarried women from
bourgeois families in conformity with the traditional understanding of
women's social role. It is revealed that feminization of the teaching
profession also caused development of vocational education for women.
The study proves that such opportunities were created by the specifics
of the economic and political situation in the country in separate
periods of the 18th and 19th centuries. During two world wars and
economic crises, women were dislodging men in the labor market, but the
authorities opposed these processes for a long time and legislatively
prevented the popularization of the teacher's profession for women. Poor
financial situation of unmarried women, however, forced them to accept
restrictive measures, and the number of female teachers was slowly
increasing. Gender professional discrimination persisted until the 1950s
both in the hiring of female teachers and in the organization of teacher
education; and the study proved that it objectively could not be
overcome earlier.},

Title = {Impact of intellectual capital on the financing of startups with new
business models},
Journal = {JOURNAL OF KNOWLEDGE MANAGEMENT},
Year = {2021},
Volume = {25},
Number = {1, SI},
Pages = {227-250},
Month = {JAN 27},
Abstract = {Purpose Financing investments in a knowledge-intensive sector may be
more difficult as there is a greater degree of uncertainty and
asymmetries of information. This paper aims to examine whether a
company's intellectual capital (human capital, relational capital and
structural capital) can serve as a quality signal in the financing of
health care startups with new business models.
Design/methodology/approach The study constructed a manual database
using several paid and unpaid databases. This paper collected random
data from 204 startups that obtained funding during the 2014-2017 period
and used signaling theory to examine the factors that impact access to
external financing for Indian health care technology startups. Findings
This paper found that venture capitalists partly base their financing
decisions on the relational capital of the startup represented by
startups' age and the average number of website visits, the presence of
a syndicate of investors. Human capital variables and structural
variables do not show much significant impact. This paper also find some
business models show a negative impact on financing implying that
investors are reluctant to invest in new technologies that carry more
uncertainty and take a longer time to become profitable. Research
limitations/implications Before concluding this paper, it is important
to acknowledge the limitations of the study and some implications for
future research purposes. First, the study is conducted on only 204
startups from India, and as such, it suffers from a small sample size,
like many other comparable survey-based studies in entrepreneurship.
Second, the results are obtained with respect to data collected from
Indian startups and represent the Indian context which limits the
generalization on a global level. Practical implications The results
suggest that years of experience and prior relevant experience, do not
actually impact the financing of a new venture. These results are
crucial as India has a unique demographic advantage over other countries
in relation to age. If young minds are adequately nurtured, this can
result in innovation, entrepreneurship and job creation (which still
remains as a foremost challenge for India). Social implications From a
policy perspective, a number of implications emerge from the current
study. There is a need for ameliorating the capacity of the education
system in providing top-quality support including a greater focus on
entrepreneurship courses and to replicate the education delivery model
from top foreign institutes. The government should take this opportunity
to revive the system of education and follow the methodology of elite
institutes and to develop entrepreneurship spirit in other colleges and
schools. Originality/value Financing the investments of young startups
with new business models in knowledge-based sectors may be more
difficult. In this paper, this paper demonstrates that startups have to
effectively use and manage their intellectual assets to achieve
sustainable competitive advantage. The findings of the paper emphasize
the role of intellectual capital in securing financing through venture
capital.},

Title = {Exclusion as a Criterion for Selecting Socially Vulnerable Population
Groups},
Journal = {ECONOMIC AND SOCIAL CHANGES-FACTS TRENDS FORECAST},
Year = {2016},
Volume = {44},
Number = {2},
Pages = {22-47},
Abstract = {The article considers theoretical aspects of a scientific research ``The
Mechanisms for Overcoming Mental Barriers of Inclusion of Socially
Vulnerable Categories of the Population for the Purpose of Intensifying
Modernization in the Regional Community{''} (RSF grant No. 16-18-00078).
The authors analyze the essence of the category of ``socially vulnerable
groups{''} from the legal, economic and sociological perspectives. The
paper shows that the economic approach that uses the criterion ``the
level of income and accumulated assets{''} when defining vulnerable
population groups prevails in public administration practice. The legal
field of the category based on the economic approach is defined by the
concept of ``the poor and socially unprotected categories of
citizens{''}. With the help of the analysis of theoretical and
methodological aspects of this issue, the authors show that these
criteria are a necessary but not sufficient condition for classifying
the population as being socially vulnerable. Foreign literature
associates the phenomenon of vulnerability with the concept of risks,
with the possibility of households responding to them and with the
likelihood of losing the well-being (poverty theory; research areas
related to the means of subsistence, etc.). The asset-based approaches
relate vulnerability to the poverty that arises due to lack of access to
tangible and intangible assets. Sociological theories presented by the
concept of social exclusion pay much attention to the breakdown of
social ties as a source of vulnerability. The essence of social
exclusion consists in the inability of people to participate in
important aspects of social life (in politics, labor markets, education
and healthcare, cultural life, etc.) though they have all the rights to
do so. The difference between the concepts of exclusion and poverty is
manifested in the displacement of emphasis from income inequality to
limited access to rights. Social exclusion is characterized by the
situation and state of exception that is linked to social status and
self-perception of human rights and expressed through the senses of
inferiority, anger, fear, despair, depression, shame. The status of
social exclusion has many criteria: poverty, limited opportunities for
employment and education, lack of access to social and community
networks and activities, inability to plan one's own life. The
explanatory concept of social exclusion is based on the construction of
the attitude toward socially vulnerable layers as the devalued social
status. The barrier of social inclusion consists in the formation of a
negative image of a representative of this category of the population in
the eyes of more secure population groups; and the reason for this
phenomenon lies in individual characteristics of an individual: lack of
purpose, apathy, laziness, low motivation to labor and training, and bad
habits. The prevailing social stereotype contributes to the
stratification of entire families, including children, who are in
advance deprived of the most important economic, political and cultural
resources of society, and have no opportunities for the upward mobility.
If no measures are taken to overcome social exclusion, it can lead to
the fact that part of the population will fall out of social development
and slip into a state of stagnation and complete social dependence. The
concept of social inclusion shifts the priorities of state social policy
from the allocation of social transfers to actively changing the mindset
in society.},

Abstract = {The Indian education scenario has undergone a dramatic shift in the last
decade. With its demographic advantage of a growing number of young
people, higher education has witnessed a consistent rise due to increase
of access for learning opportunity in the recent years. The country
currently stands at a developmental crossroads, as it is confronted with
the need to balance the goal of becoming globally competitive and at the
same time achieving the inclusive growth. In spite of remarkable growth
in the recent past, a growing body of evidence also points to serious
concerns, which include growing incidences of youth unemployment and
quality of education \& training related issues that require urgent
action to help the India to sustain its progress and make significant
achievements.
With the phenomenal explosion of knowledge and application of
information-cum-communication technologies (ICT) have accelerated the
structured access to data and information. ICT has brought about
dramatic changes in the world of work. New developments in information
technologies have opened-up fresh prospective in teaching and learning.
While formal education and training continues to be necessary, planned
interventions through ICT based professional development will have also
to be infused to advance the knowledge, skills and attitudes among
learners as well as practicing teachers. Teacher Educators will be the
central forces in utilizing and applying the new learning opportunities
created by ICT. The continuous professional development of Teacher
Educator is pivotal in deciding, how teaching-learning should take place
in the present-day education system.
ICTs will have to be harnessed, as its integration offers unique
opportunity to increase the avenues for continuous professional
development for practicing teacher educators. Thereby the quality of
education, effectiveness and efficiency of delivery will improve to
diverse learner groups and communities. The present groundbreaking
initiative is in response to the strong need identified for empowering
academic staff to master the art of teaching by using technology and
modern learning techniques, thus elevating the quality of education in
the institutions. An attempt is made to share and discuss the
progressive learning experiences of employing ICT for professional
development of next generation teacher educators of the Western Region
in India.
The paper presents a design framework of using exclusively developed
Amrita Virtual Interactive Elearning World (A-VIEW) platform along with
Modular Object Oriented Dynamic Learning Environment (MOODLE) learning
management system for offering the professional development programs
specifically designed for technical educators and professionals. The
programs aimed at capacity building of academic staff, administrators
for transforming the educational culture \& teaching -learning system
within the institute by creating a sustained and holistic impact. This
endeavor envisaged the trained Teacher Educators to act as a change
agent. This means we can respond to the diverse needs of learners to
prepare them for gainful employment and sustainable livelihoods. It also
shares the specific challenges come across, while implementing the new
initiative in the region. The program evaluation indicates encouraging
feedback \& positive change as retorting by all the beneficiaries.
Finally, it will provide reflections on the role of ICT in the near
future.},

Abstract = {Background. Traditional municipal services are not successful at
reaching Turkish seniors. Compared to native Germans Turkish seniors
have a lower social participation.
Objective. Do native language groups hosted by aGerman organization
promote the social participation of Turkish seniors? How does social
participation take place in the ZWAR networks (between work and
retirement; aproject to strengthen social participation of seniors) and
which factors promote or reduce social participation?
Material and methods. Qualitative structuring content analysis of two
group discussions, which were based on guided interviews.
Results. The social participation of Turkish-speaking seniors was
strengthened on three levels: (1)through regular meetings of the Turkish
ethnic group social relationships were promoted and German language
skills and other skills were improved. Through mutual sharing and
understanding of the stressors specific to migration, emotional support
was provided. The sharing of mutual cultural and linguistic backgrounds
created asense of community and meetings were perceived as an antidote
to migrants' exhausting lives in German society. (2)At the
organizational level, participation was promoted through extensive group
events. Regardless of their cultural background all participants
identified as equal ZWAR members. The ZWAR project functioned as an
umbrella organization for participation in the intercultural context.
(3)Participation in community events created contacts with community
stakeholders and fostered volunteer work. Hence, participants were able
to use their skills, and therefore broaden their horizons.
Conclusion. Turkish ZWAR networks promoted the social participation of
members because integration with their ethnic group reduced access
barriers, broadened members' scopes of action, and created new
opportunities for participation.},

Title = {A Cross-Sectional Study on Pharmacy Students' Career Choices in the
Light of Saudi Vision 2030: Will Community Pharmacy Continue to Be the
Most Promising, but Least Preferred, Sector?},
Journal = {INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH AND PUBLIC HEALTH},
Year = {2021},

Abstract = {Introduction: The Saudi Arabian healthcare divisions that recruit and
hire pharmacists include hospital pharmacy, community pharmacies,
universities, and research centres. Local studies showed that hospital
pharmacy is the most preferred sector, while community pharmacy is the
least preferred. However, jobs in hospital pharmacy are limited compared
to community pharmacy. Hence, to accommodate the increasing numbers of
pharmacy graduates and to facilitate the implementation of Saudi Vision
2030, which promotes primary healthcare and the participation of both
private and non-governmental organisations in healthcare delivery,
community pharmacy ought to be Saudised. This study was conducted to
assess the career choices made by Saudi pharmacy students and the
enablers that influence their career choice, especially in community
pharmacy. Methods: A prospective cross-sectional approach was used. A
total of 437 final year pharmacy students were recruited from 15
pharmacy schools around the country. Results: Salary and advancement
opportunities as well as geographical location, benefits, and work
environment were found to be ``very important{''} enablers when making
career decisions. Hospital pharmacy was selected as the most preferred
sector by 242 (55.4\%) of the participants, while community pharmacy was
the least favoured pharmacy sector (17\% or 6.2\%). The enablers that
might influence the consideration of a job in community pharmacy
included career aspiration and social accountability. On the other hand,
the barriers were personal beliefs about the sector and the nature of
the work. Conclusions: The community pharmacy sector was found to be the
least preferred sector to work in. The study revealed a list of enablers
that the participants found to be relevant or of high relevance when
choosing community pharmacy as a career pathway. Some of the enablers
contribute to the role of the pharmacist towards the local community,
social accountability, and towards the country's Vision, such as
interaction with the general public and educating them. Other enablers
are related to the pharmacists' career aspirations, such as owning a
business. Some of the barriers that were found relevant include high
workload, inflexible working hours, and limited opportunities for
professional development. Localisation of community pharmacies would
help to create more jobs for national pharmacists, increase the
participation of female pharmacists in the workforce and support the
achievement of Vision 2030. The barriers should be tackled on several
levels: undergraduate curriculum, regulatory, and actual practice.
Undergraduate education needs to include primary pharmaceutical care
services in its curriculum. Regulatory changes include enforcing the
renationalisation of the community pharmacy sector and permitting
females to work in community pharmacies without location restrictions.},

Abstract = {An important feature of many rural markets is the over-supply of labour.
An insufficient number of jobs in rural areas is usually associated with
the shortage of capital, companies, consumers and skilled workers, i.e.
limited impact of the agglomeration effect. Additionally, in regions
with structural changes in agriculture, the phenomenon of increased or
hidden unemployment is visible. One of the important objectives of
labour market policy in Poland was a promotion of employment, especially
in peripheral, poor and agricultural territories. Along with the
accession of Poland to the EU, both agricultural and cohesion policy
instruments supported by the structural funds have also been aimed at
resolving the problems of rural labour markets. They concerned mainly
the diversification of agricultural activities, support of
entrepreneurship, as well as development of knowledge and skills. The
paper considers the barriers and challenges in increasing employment in
rural Poland. In particular, the changes on local rural labour markets
and the influence of relevant policy tools thereon have been studied.
The study is based on the quantitative and qualitative analysis of the
public statistics and information on the implementation of selected EU
CAP and Cohesion Policy instruments in Poland from the period 2007-2014
and the literature of the subject. The study showed that, despite the
favourable economic situation and the effects of projects aimed at
creating and maintaining non-agricultural jobs in rural areas supported
by the EU founds, the rural employment rate and the number of people
employed in agriculture did not increase significantly. In this context,
the paper provides the explanation of limited improvements in terms of
rural employment and policy offers recommendations in this area.},

Abstract = {Studies of family reunification suggest that migrants' decisions whether

this article draws from the literature on social reproduction in the

migrations respectively to France and to Belgium. Interview data
analysis brings to the fore the forces that influence the decisions of
Filipino and Thai migrant women regarding family reunion: the
inequalities of access to rights and resources stemming from their
positions in the global reproductive systems, which are stratified and
structured by gendered norms and state policies. Their positions within
the reproductive systems in their countries of origin and of immigration
entail obligations to fulfil, expectations to meet, and (dis)advantages
to live with. As a result, not all Filipino and Thai migrants pursue
family reunion, even in the presence of favourable factors such as a
regular migration status and stable economic resources.},

Abstract = {Objectives The expansion of out-of-hours pharmacy services results from
a drive to improve patient care and promote integration into the wider
healthcare team. However, there has been little attempt to explore these
intended outcomes as well as the potential problems arising from working
out of hours. The aim of this study was to explore the experiences and
views of pharmacists who work shifts as part of a 24/7 pharmacy service.
Methods Semistructured interviews with shift-working pharmacists were
conducted. Data were analysed using a framework approach. Results
Pharmacists described the positive impact they had on patient safety by
ensuring the prompt supply of time-critical medicines and their
proactive role in preventing adverse drug events. Pharmacists' on-site
presence and attendance at handover promoted integration into the wider
team and facilitated unplanned interventions. However, requests for
non-urgent supplies were a source of frustration. Disparity of
pharmacists' perceptions of senior support demonstrated a need to
explore communication further and the importance of non-technical
skills, such as communication in service provision. Shift work appeared
to be a double-edged sword for work-life balance, preventing
participation in regular hobbies, but providing flexibility. Service
improvements could include technician support, greater feedback
provision and improved ordering processes. Conclusions Overall,
pharmacists believed the shift service exhibited numerous advantages
over a traditional remote on-call service, particularly in improving
aspects of patient safety and integration into the wider healthcare
team. Clarity of the service scope and development of non-technical
skills are areas for improvement and development.},

Title = {Dying for a change: a systematic review of compassionate release
policies},
Journal = {INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF PRISONER HEALTH},
Year = {2023},
Volume = {19},
Number = {1, SI},
Pages = {47-62},
Month = {MAR 16},
Abstract = {Purpose The purpose of this study was to systematically review
literature to investigate trends in compassionate release policies,
facility implementation, barriers at both the incarcerated individual
and institutional levels, as well as gaps in the literature. The absence
of uniform and appropriate policies to address suitable interventions at
the end-of-life has aggravated the challenges and issues facing
health-care systems within a correctional facility. A response to
address and alleviate these barriers is policies related to
compassionate release, a complex route that grants eligible inmates the
opportunity to die in their community. Despite the existence of
compassionate release policies, only 4\% of requests to the Federal
Bureau of Prisons are granted, with evidence demonstrating similarly low
rates among numerous state prison systems, signifying the underuse of
these procedures as a vital approach to decarceration.
Design/methodology/approach A systematic review was completed using
preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and meta-analyses
guidelines. Centre for Agriculture and Biosciences International
Abstracts, Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature,
Cochrane Library, Education Resources Information Center, Google
Scholar, MEDLINE, PsycINFO, PubMed, Social Services Abstracts and Social
Work Abstracts were searched from inception to March 2021. Inclusion
criteria included: the compassionate release policy (or related policy)
is implemented in the USA; reported qualitative and/or quantitative
outcomes; and reported original data. Findings Twenty studies formed the
final data set. Data analysis revealed four main themes: language
barriers, complexities of eligibility criteria, over-reliance on
prognostication and social stigma. Barriers to inmates' access to
compassionate release policies include unclear or technical language
used in policy documents. Eligibility criteria appear to vary across the
country, including disease prognoses and the ability to predict terminal
declines in health, creating confusion amongst inmates, lawyers and
review boards. Stigmas surrounding the rights of incarcerated
individuals frequently influence policymakers who experience pressure to
maintain a punitive stance to appease constituents, thus discouraging
policies and interventions that promote the release of incarcerated
individuals. Research limitations/implications Further research is vital
to strengthen the understanding of compassionate release policies and
related barriers associated with accessing various types of early
parole. To promote social justice for this marginalized population,
end-of-life interventions in corrections need to be consistently
evaluated with outcomes that improve care for dying inmates. Practical
implications Within correctional facilities, correctional health-care
workers should play an integral role in influencing prison and medical
staff attitudes toward dying inmates by providing an understanding of
how to effectively support this vulnerable population. Social workers
should participate in research that focuses on effective guidelines for
correctional facilities to provide compassionate end-of-life care for
inmates. Social implications Racial disparities in the US criminal
justice system are prevalent and well documented, as individuals of
color are arrested far out of proportion to their share of all
individuals in the USA. This particular population is thus challenged
with poor access to and quality of health care in corrections.
Correctional health-care workers can play an integral role in
influencing policymakers, as well as prison and medical staff attitudes
toward dying inmates by providing an understanding of how to effectively
support this vulnerable population. Originality/value Currently, there
are no published research articles that provide a systematic review of
compassionate release policies in the USA.},

Journal = {PERFORMANCE RESEARCH},

Volume = {23},
Number = {1},
Pages = {52-60},
Abstract = {Beginning in 2012, the Wellcome Trust, Arts Council England and a number
of other stakeholders supported voice artist Yvon Bonenfant to undertake
a sustained process of performance-making for children aged 6-11. Taking
advantage of the decreasing cost of working with audience-responsive
digital infrastructure, Bonenfant and his team developed a live,
interactive touring performance; an interactive installation artwork;
and an iPad app. These artworks all intended to elicit the unusual
voicings of their audience, and then entice the audience into generating
increasingly sophisticated, inter-sensory vocal art, made from
non-normative (or extended, unusual) vocal sounds. Through so doing, the
artworks intended to celebrate the joy of vocal difference with their
users. However, the works raised interesting questions about
participation, invitation, coercion, discourses of freeing the voice',
and the nature of the power structures embedded in this kind of
participatory performance with children. Four problematic dynamics are
addressed: Firstly, we explore how the artworks took advantage of a
seeming neurodevelopmental predisposition to respond to their
invitations. Secondly, we explore the role of live performers, the pace
at which they move children through participatory activities, and to
what degree their actions open up a sense of participant choice, or
inversely, highlight a lack thereof. Next, the design language of the
artworks, and both its inviting and coercive qualities, is explored.
Finally, the nature of the internal story' told by the bodies of the
participants to the participants themselves within the experience of the
works is discussed. Through so doing, the article asserts that because
the intention to take our child audience into a space of vocal freedom'
and the attendant liberatory affect, is realised largely when the wider
culture constructs such sound as forbidden; and its conclusions meditate
on the implications of this.},

from Australia's paid parental leave},
Journal = {HEALTH PROMOTION INTERNATIONAL},

Month = {OCT},
Abstract = {How do public health advocates and practitioners encourage policy actors
to address the social determinants of health? What strategies can be
used to elevate healthy social policies onto government agendas? In this
paper, we examine the case of Australia's first national paid parental
leave scheme, announced in 2009 after decades of policy advocacy. This
scheme provides job-protected leave and government-funded pay at the
minimum wage for 18weeks for eligible primary care givers on the birth
of an infant, and has been shown to reduce health inequities. Drawing on
documentary sources and interviews (n=25) with key policy actors, this
paper traces the evolution of this landmark social policy in Australia,
focusing on the role of actors, institutions and policy framings in
setting the policy agenda. We find that advocates strategically deployed
three different framings-for economy, gender equality and health-to
drive paid parental leave onto the Government's agenda. They navigated
barriers linked to power, gender ideology and cost, shifting tactics
along the way by adopting different frames in various institutional
settings and broadening their coalitions. Health arguments varied in
different institutional settings and, at times, advocates selectively
argued the economic or gender equality framing over health. The case
illustrates the successful use of strategic pragmatism to provoke
action, and raises broader lessons for advancing action on the social
determinants of health. In particular, the case highlights the
importance of adopting multiple synergistic policy framings to draw
support from non-traditional allies and building coalitions to secure
public policy change.},

Title = {Exploring US Veterans' post-service employment experiences},
Journal = {MILITARY PSYCHOLOGY},
Year = {2018},
Volume = {30},
Number = {1},
Pages = {63-69},
Abstract = {Although most U.S. veterans transition to civilian life successfully,
securing employment and reintegrating into civilian communities, some
veterans face transition challenges that can lead to or exacerbate
mental and physical health problems. Emerging research from a survey
conducted by Prudential indicates that difficulty transitioning to
civilian life is largely attributable to employment (Prudential, 2012).
This study sought to understand veterans' employment experiences. Four
focus groups (n = 33) with pre- and post-9/11 veterans who at the time
were accessing housing and employment support services were conducted.
Thematic analysis of focus group transcripts led to the emergence of 2
master themes: (a) organizational and societal barriers, such as limited
availability of transition programs, discharge type, negative
experiences of support services, and perceived discrimination; and (b)
personal barriers, such as lack of initiative to plan and difficulty
adjusting to working with civilians. Since data was collected for this
study, updates to TAP have been implemented; this may have alleviated
some of the reported barriers. The role of veterans' personal
characteristics in employment requires attention in the context of
agency, initiative, identity, and cultural adjustment. Policy,
programmatic, practice, and future research recommendations are made.},

Abstract = {Research Question: The purpose of this study was to provide an update on
the status of African American working women in public parks and
recreation (city and county) in the United States. Three research
questions guided this study: (1) What is the occupational mobility
pattern for the sample of African American female public parks and
recreation employees from 2010-2015?; (2) Is there a relationship
between select demographic variables and occupational mobility within
the sample population?; and (3) What are the sample population's
perceptions about race and gender as potential barriers to occupational
mobility? Research Methods: A 50-item e-survey was developed utilizing
Qualtrics and was sent to study participants via e-mail. The survey
contained three sections: (1) perceived status (importance of the
position in the organization) of 17 common occupational titles; (2)
information about occupational mobility; and (3) demographic
information. The occupational titles used in the present study were
consistent with the titles used in previous occupational mobility
studies in public parks and recreation and in previous National
Recreation and Park Association salary surveys. Results and Findings:
Overall, the majority of the sample (79.6\%, n = 90) did not experience
any mobility between 2010-2015; 16\% (15.9\%, n = 18) were upwardly
mobile, and the remaining 4.4\% (n = 4) experienced downward mobility. A
weak but significant association was found between the variables
mobility pattern and position type {[}X-2 (6, N = 113) = 13.20, p = .04;
V = .24]. However, no significant associations were found between
mobility pattern, age, number of years of experience in public parks and
recreation, marital status, minor children at home, educational level
and income, respectively. When the respondents were asked whether they
were presently seeking a position that they felt would be a career
advancement, 53.1\% (n = 60) indicated ``yes{''} while the remaining
46.9\% (n = 53) responded ``no{''}.},

Abstract = {Success in global surgery interventions cannot be claimed until
consistent long-term follow up is achieved and corresponding outcomes
are studied. However, post-operative outcomes remain inconsistently

efforts largely focused on the delivery of surgical care. Barriers in
low- and middle-income countries include patient cost and distance, low

structural deficiencies. Here, we suggest that future work can be
focused on (1) enhancing systems to facilitate longterm follow up and

development of international cross-organizational registries and
standardized quality measures. Long-term collaborations between local

symptoms among apparel workers in the Dominican Republic: a
quasi-experimental study},
Journal = {BMJ OPEN},
Year = {2015},
Volume = {5},
Number = {8},
Abstract = {Objectives: Poverty reduction interventions through cash transfers and
microcredit have had mixed effects on mental health. In this
quasi-experimental study, we evaluate the effect of a living wage
intervention on depressive symptoms of apparel factory workers in the
Dominican Republic.
Setting: Two apparel factories in the Dominican Republic.
Participants: The final sample consisted of 204 hourly wage workers from
the intervention (99) and comparison (105) factories.
Interventions: In 2010, an apparel factory began a living wage
intervention including a 350\% wage increase and significant workplace
improvements. The wage increase was plausibly exogenous because workers
were not aware of the living wage when applying for jobs and expected to
be paid the usual minimum wage. These individuals were compared with
workers at a similar local factory paying minimum wage, 15-16 months
postintervention.
Primary outcome measures: Workers' depressive symptoms were assessed
using the Center for Epidemiologic Studies-Depression Scale (CES-D).
Ordinary least squares and Poisson regressions were used to evaluate
treatment effect of the intervention, adjusted for covariates.
Results: Intervention factory workers had fewer depressive symptoms than
comparison factory workers (unadjusted mean CES-D scores: 10.6 +/- 9.3
vs 14.7 +/- 11.6, p=0.007). These results were sustained when
controlling for covariates (beta=-5.4, 95\% CI -8.5 to -2.3, p=0.001).
In adjusted analyses using the standard CES-D clinical cut-off of 16,
workers at the intervention factory had a 47\% reduced risk of
clinically significant levels of depressive symptoms compared with
workers at the comparison factory (23\% vs 40\%).
Conclusions: Policymakers have long grappled with how best to improve
mental health among populations in low-income and middle-income
countries. We find that providing a living wage and workplace

Abstract = {Objective To investigate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the
research activity and working experience of clinical academics, with a
focus on gender and ethnicity. Design Qualitative study based on
interviews and audio/written diary data. Setting UK study within
clinical academia. Participants Purposive sample of 82 clinical
academics working in medicine and dentistry across all career stages
ranging from academic clinical fellows and doctoral candidates to
professors. Methods Qualitative semistructured interviews (n=68) and
audio diary data (n=30; including 16 participants who were also
interviewed) collected over an 8-month period (January-September 2020),
thematically analysed. Results 20 of 30 (66.6\%) audio diary
contributors and 40 of 68 (58.8\%) interview participants were female.
Of the participants who disclosed ethnicity, 5 of 29 (17.2\%) audio
diary contributors and 19/66 (28.8\%) interview participants identified
as Black, Asian or another minority (BAME). Four major themes were
identified in relation to the initial impact of COVID-19 on clinical
academics: opportunities, barriers, personal characteristics and social
identity, and fears and uncertainty. COVID-19 presented opportunities
for new avenues of research. Barriers included access to resources to
conduct research and the increasing teaching demands. One of the most
prominent subthemes within `personal characteristics' was that of the
perceived negative impact of the pandemic on the work of female clinical
academics. This was attributed to inequalities experienced in relation
to childcare provision and research capacity. Participants described
differential experiences based upon their gender and ethnicity, noting
intersectional identities. Conclusions While there have been some
positives afforded to clinical academics, particularly for new avenues
of research, COVID-19 has negatively impacted workload, future career
intentions and mental health. BAME academics were particularly fearful
due to the differential impact on health. Our study elucidates the
direct and systemic discrimination that creates barriers to women's
career trajectories in clinical academia. A flexible, strategic response
that supports clinical academics in resuming their training and research
is required. Interventions are needed to mitigate the potential lasting
impact on capacity from the pandemic, and the potential for the loss of
women from this valuable workforce.},

Volume = {92},
Number = {2},
Pages = {185-191},
Month = {FEB},
Abstract = {China is engaged in efforts to train 300,000 family doctors by 2020 to
meet its population's health care needs. This Article discusses the
family doctor shortage, compares family medicine training programs,
examines the distributional challenges faced by these programs, and
proposes directions for further experimentation. Despite an increasing
number of family doctors, they represented only 5.6\% of all doctors in
2013. Currently, three training programs run concurrently-the
post-transfer training, residency training, and designated family
medicine undergraduate education programs. These programs face several
challenges. First, the educational qualifications of primary care
practitioners (PCPs) vary greatly between rural and urban regions. From
2005 to 2013, the percentage of PCPs with three or more years of medical
training in urban areas was at least 20.0\% higher than in rural areas.
Second, regional disparities in the number of family doctors for every
10,000 people exist. The richer eastern part of China has a ratio of
1.51 family doctors for every 10,000 people, nearly double that of
central (0.70) and western China (0.86). Third, better-educated doctors
are most likely going to prefer to work in hospitals, which offer a
lucrative career path with higher pay and social status. Intervention
packages that combine student selection policies that look at place of
origin and career intent with other incentive strategies are worth
implementing. Adequate clinical exposure and regular, rigorous
evaluations are crucial for enhancing training quality. China should
strike a balance in the distribution of family doctors between the
richer and poorer areas to ensure equity.},

Journal = {ADVANCES IN LIFE COURSE RESEARCH},
Year = {2016},
Volume = {27},
Pages = {43-60},
Month = {MAR},
Abstract = {How are gendered work family life courses associated with financial
well-being in retirement? In this article we compare the cohorts born
1920-1950 in West Germany and Switzerland, whose adult life courses are
characterized by similar strong male-breadwinner contexts in both
countries. The countries differ in that Switzerland represented a
liberal pension system, whereas Germany represented a corporatist
protective pension system when these cohorts retired. We therefore
assess how gendered work family life courses that developed in similar
male-breadwinner contexts are related to financial well-being in
retirement in different pension systems. Using data from the SHARELIFE
survey we conduct multichannel sequence analysis and cluster analysis to
identify groups of typical work family life courses from ages 20 to 59.
Regression models estimate how these groups are associated with the
individual pension income and household income in retirement. Results
show that women who combined motherhood with part time work and extended
periods out of the labour force have even lower individual pension
income in Switzerland compared to their German peers. This relative
disadvantage partly extends to lower household income in retirement.
Findings support that male breadwinner policies earlier in life combined
with liberal pension policies later in life, as in Switzerland,
intensify pension penalties for typical female work family life courses
of early motherhood and weak labour force attachment. We conclude that
life course sensitive social policies should harmonize regulations,
which are in effect earlier in life with policies later in life for
specific birth cohorts. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.},

Year = {2019},
Volume = {7},
Number = {2, SI},

Month = {MAY 4},
Abstract = {Labour migration policies create social tensions over the functioning of
national labour markets, the interests of the local workforce,
employers' needs and migrant workers' rights. This makes legislating on
labour migration a balancing act, which often leads to legislation which
grants wide discretion to bureaucrats in assessing labour market needs
or other public interest indicators. We question whether, and if so how,
the use of discretion in labour migration law transforms our concepts of
migration and - possibly - membership. Central to our analysis is the
fundamental question of how discretion may be properly limited. The
existence of acceptable levels of transparency, accountability and
representativeness in policy- and law-making processes is the first line
of defence against arbitrary exclusion of `the other' from membership.
We show how discretion in labour migration policy is not determined so
much by regional context (e.g. the EU). We do this by presenting two
case studies on jurisdictions from very different regional contexts: the
Netherlands and Macau SAR. These jurisdictions are representative of the
persistent pressure exerted by governments to overcome obstacles
encountered in the rigid statutory wording and mould the daily
application of migration law to their perception of public interest. We
use the globally relevant concept of income, understood sometimes as a
barrier to migration and sometimes as a means to protect the migrant,
and inquire on the recurrent use of discretion in setting the level of
income required for migration. We show how discretion is used to label
income as either too high or too low. In this respect, the use of
discretionary power calls into question the principles of participation,
transparency, affectedness, and accountability. Income requirements and
their enforcement present themselves not as a means to protect migrant
workers but more like another instrument of exclusion from - potential -
full membership.},

Journal = {JOURNAL OF VOCATIONAL REHABILITATION},
Year = {2022},
Volume = {56},
Number = {3},
Pages = {303-312},
Abstract = {BACKGROUND: The benefits of successful integrated employment for people
with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) are immense.
However, barriers contributing to high rates of unemployment among
people with IDD, such as lack of appropriate training for employers and
inadequate supports, are still widespread. Ensuring access to technology
in the workplace is one method to support employees with IDD and
mitigate those barriers. Furthermore, assistive technology may provide a
simple and cost-effective intervention in the vocational setting.
OBJECTIVE: In this study, we conducted a series of focus groups with
adults with IDD and their family members to explore the use of
technology by individuals with IDD in vocational contexts.
METHODS: We used a qualitative descriptive approach to frame the study
design. Data were analyzed using a multi-cycle thematic coding process.
RESULTS: Four major themes emerged from the analysis: participants'
wireless/wearable technology use, benefits and facilitators of
technology use at work, barriers and challenges to technology use at
work, and expectations for and outcomes associated with technology
supports in the workplace.
CONCLUSIONS: Findings have the potential to impact employer education
and training on benefits of appropriate technology use for individuals
with IDD at work, onboarding and training of individuals with IDD when
using technology at work, and funding responsibility for technology in
the workplace.},

Abstract = {Pathways to employment are typically interrupted by first-episode
psychosis (FEP) which strikes during the developmentally critical time
of young adulthood. This paper reports on the key moments and messages
that influenced the developing employment, education, or disability
trajectories of young adults in the years following completion of
Coordinated Specialty Care (CSC) for FEP. Nineteen semi-structured
interviews were conducted with young adults with both lived experience
of a FEP and a CSC program, from a critical case sample of 10 persons
who were involved in an advocacy group. Results indicate that family
support and expectations, disability narratives from mental health
professionals, the realities of the modern labor market, and university
disability support strongly influenced the pathway to employment,
education, or disability, and that these were influenced by multiple
structural realities such as family SES, disability policies, and
treatment ideology, and the capacity of the labor market and
universities. This paper concludes that CSC services should create a
unified plan to address the structural barriers that challenge those
from marginalized families, reevaluate traditional disability ideology
in mental health treatment, and better support new pathways to secure
employment and education for all young adults with FEP.},

Abstract = {Stress negatively impacts health outcomes across all racial and ethnic
groups, but the health disparities experienced by Latino immigrants in
nontraditional migration cities are exacerbated by undeveloped
infrastructure and weak social support networks. Immigrants in new
migration cities can be difficult to engage in health interventions and
are therefore underrepresented in the very research where their
inclusion is most crucial. To effectively engage Latino immigrants, a
team of academic and community researchers collaborated on a
community-based participatory research project to design and implement a
stress and coping intervention. Top stressors reported were family,
children, and work, but health was most commonly identified as the
primary stressor. Participants overwhelmingly chose physical activity
goals for stress reduction. Pre- to post- intervention results revealed
significant improvements in social support and stress management.
Results demonstrate the effectiveness of a peer-led, community-partnered
approach to implementing a stress intervention with Latino immigrants in
a nontraditional migration city.},

Abstract = {Resource constraints and high staff turnover are perceived as
substantial barriers to high quality residential aged care. Achieving
relationship-focused, person-centered care (PCC) is an ongoing
challenge. This paper reports on an international project that explored
how residential care leadership understand meaningful engagement for
residents with dementia from culturally and linguistically diverse
(CALD) backgrounds. This paper critically appraises the process, and
outcomes, of an adapted Delphi method. Participants were the residential
care leadership (i.e. staff in supervisory capacity) from four
international facilities. Participation in the Delphi process was
limited even though surveys were designed to require minimal time for
completion. No participants opted for the alternative option of being
interviewed. Findings indicate that residential care leadership
recognised the importance of meaningful engagement for residents from
CALD backgrounds. Limitations of time, resources and policy
infrastructure were cited as barriers to achieving PCC. These findings
suggest that facility leadership understand the importance of PCC, but
identify multiple barriers rather than enablers for delivering PCC.
Alternative methods, such as collecting data in interactive sessions
allowing real-time discussion should be initiated to more effectively
engage residential care leaders for a collaborative approach to explore
PCC practices.},

Abstract = {Background Centers for Medicare \& Medicaid Services (CMS) began
encouraging governors to implement work requirements for Medicaid
enrollees using section 1115 waivers in 2018. Significant controversy
surrounds such attempts, but we know little about the perceptions and
experiences of enrollees. Objective To characterize experiences of work
and its relationship to participation in Medicaid and other public
programs among potential targets of Medicaid work requirements. Design
In-depth, semi-structured, one-time qualitative interviews. Participants
35 very low-income, non-disabled Medicaid expansion enrollees
participating in a county-sponsored Medicaid managed care plan as a part
of a larger study. Approach We used a biographical narrative
interpretive method during interviews including questions about the use
of employment and income support and other public programs including
from state and federal disability programs. Our team iteratively coded
verbatim transcripts allowing for emergent themes. Key Results Interview
data revealed high motivation for, and broad participation in, formal
and informal paid work. Eight themes emerged: (1) critical poverty (for
example, ``I'm not content, but what choices do I have?{''}); (2)
behavioral and physical health barriers to work; (3) social barriers:
unstable housing, low education, criminal justice involvement; (4) work,
pride, and shame; (5) inflexible, unstable work (for example, ``Can I
have a job that will accommodate my doctor appointments? horizontal
ellipsis Will my therapy have to suffer? You know? So it's a double
edged sword.{''}); (6) Medicaid supports the ability to work; (7) lack
of transparency and misalignment of program eligibility (for example,
``It's not like I don't want to work because I would like to work. It's
just that I don't want to be homeless again, right?{''}); and (8)
barriers, confusion, and contradictions about federal disability.
Conclusions We conclude that bipartisan solutions prioritizing the
availability of well-paying jobs and planful transitions off of public
programs would best serve very low-income, work-capable Medicaid
enrollees.},

Abstract = {The United States invests billions of taxpayer dollars each year into
foreign assistance programs that foster international diplomacy and
development directed toward improving the quality of life for people
around the world. These programs develop economies and combat poverty,
promote democracy and governance, build new infrastructure, advance and
protect human rights, among other development goals. The United States
cannot effectively accomplish the goals of foreign assistance programs
unless it undertakes measures to ensure that the programs are accessible
to and inclusive of people with disabilities. The United States has been
a leader in advancing the rights of people with disabilities and must
continue to promote disability rights through its international
development work. Overseas economic development will not be successful
unless people with disabilities are included. Because of the significant
number of people with disabilities in developing countries, if they are
not included, the very economic growth the United States is trying to
foster will be hindered. The goals of democracy and governance programs
cannot be achieved without the inclusion of people with disabilities. In
many countries, domestic law contains blatant discriminatory provisions
for people with disabilities that undermine access to justice and full
participation in society. The provisions that discriminate against
people with disabilities include arbitrary exclusions in electoral
codes, sweeping plenary guardianship laws with no due-process
protections, discriminatory banking practices, and inaccessible court
proceedings. National disability legal frameworks remain underdeveloped
throughout the world. (C) 2012 Published by Elsevier Inc.},

Abstract = {Both Legislators and demographers have shown concerns about the aging of
populations in the global North countries, and, for over two decades,
have suggested encouraging migrations to make up for its effects. As a
result, qualified and highly qualified migration have boomed, reflecting
the global consolidation of migrant labor in technological, scientific
and financial sectors. This substitution migration policy, however, is
put into question from a knowledge-based economical and political
perspective, since, by disregarding the relationship between labor
productivity transformations and demographic crisis, it fails to see
important processes whereby immigrants are differentially included.
Moreover, we want to reject the philanthropic and optimistic views of
globalization, as consolidated in formulations such as ``brain gain{''}
and ``brain circulation{''}, which emphasize the generalized positive
effects of qualified workers' migration. Instead, we suggest delving
into the cognitive injustice of international migration processes, which
are part of a greater global social injustice pattern. Indeed, rather
than reproducing the discourse of mobility, democracy and human rights,
we assert that selective immigration policies effectively consolidate
the reproduction of global social inequalities.},

Title = {How do pregnant women and new mothers navigate and respond to challenges
in accessing health care? Perspectives from rural South Africa},
Journal = {SOCIAL SCIENCE \& MEDICINE},
Year = {2020},
Volume = {258},
Month = {AUG},
Abstract = {Women in low- and middle-income countries and in contexts characterized
by inequality face various interpersonal and structural barriers when
accessing formal maternal and child health (MCH) services. These
barriers persist even in contexts where programs to increase access to
services, such as community health worker (CHW) interventions, have been
implemented. However, while barriers to accessing care have been
extensively documented, less is known about the diverse ways that women
respond to, and navigate, these situations. This study explores
strategies pregnant women and new mothers use to navigate and respond to
health care barriers in a rural district in the Eastern Cape, South
Africa. Twenty-six pregnant or recently delivered clients of the Enable
Mentor Mother program were interviewed about their experiences of
accessing formal MCH services. Interviews were conducted between
February-March 2018 by an experienced isiXhosa-speaking research
assistant, translated and transcribed into English, with transcripts
coded and organized by themes using ATLAS.ti software. Facing resource
shortages, inconsistent communication, and long travel times to clinics,
participants employed diverse, innovative strategies to navigate
interpersonal and structural barriers to care. While some participants
chose to respond to barriers more passively-citing endurance and
acceptance as practices of health system engagement-those participants
who focused more on active responses tended to leverage their education,
existing relationships, and available community resources to overcome
barriers. Nevertheless, most participants described feelings of
frustration and dejection. While CHW interventions may alleviate some of
the burdens facing fragile health care systems in these contexts, these
programs still rely on an underlying infrastructure of care that primary
health care clinics and hospitals should be providing. Future
programming should work in tandem with formal health systems and should
support staff to improve quality of care provided to pregnant women, new
mothers, and their infants to prioritize their health at a time of
vulnerability.},

Month = {DEC},
Abstract = {Background: This study fills a gap in the literature with a quantitative
comparison of the maternity care experiences of women in different
geographic locations in Queensland, Australia.
Method: Data from a large-scale survey were used to compare women's care
experiences according to Australian Standard Geographical Classification
(major city, inner regional, outer regional, remote and very remote).
Results: Compared to the other groups, women from remote or very remote
areas were more likely to be younger, live in an area with poorer
economic resources, identify as Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander
and give birth in a public facility. They were more likely to travel to
another city, town or community for birth. In adjusted analyses women
from remote areas were less likely to have interventions such as
electronic fetal monitoring, but were more likely to give birth in an
upright position and be able to move around during labour. Women from
remote areas did not differ significantly from women from major cities
in their satisfaction with interpersonal care. Antenatal and postpartum
care was lacking for rural women. In adjusted analyses they were much
less likely to have booked for maternity care by 18 weeks gestation, to
be telephoned or visited by a care provider in the first 10 days after
birth. Despite these differences, women from remote areas were more
likely to be breastfeeding at 13 weeks and confident in caring for their
baby at home.
Conclusions: Findings support qualitative assertions that remote and
rural women are disadvantaged in their access to antenatal and postnatal
care by the need to travel for birth, however, other factors such as age
were more likely to be significant barriers to high quality
interpersonal care. Improvements to maternity services are needed in
order to address inequalities in maternity care particularly in the
postnatal period. (C) 2014 Australian College of Midwives. Published by

Title = {A Step Toward Timely Referral and Early Diagnosis of Cancer:
Implementation and Impact on Knowledge of a Primary Care-Based Training
Program in Botswana},
Journal = {FRONTIERS IN ONCOLOGY},

Volume = {8},
Month = {MAY 29},
Abstract = {Introduction: Health system delays in diagnosis of cancer contribute to
the glaring disparities in cancer mortality between high-income
countries and low- and middle-income countries. In Botswana,
approximately 70\% of cancers are diagnosed at late stage and median
time from first health facility visit for cancer-related symptoms to
specialty cancer care was 160 days (IQR 59-653). We describe the
implementation and early outcomes of training targeting primary care
providers, which is a part of a multi-component implementation study in
Kweneng-East district aiming to enhance timely diagnosis of cancers.
Methods: Health-care providers from all public facilities within the
district were invited to participate in an 8-h intensive short-course
program developed by a multidisciplinary team and adapted to the
Botswana health system context. Participants' performance was assessed
using a 25-multiple choice question tool, with pre- and post assessments
paired by anonymous identifier. Statistical analysis with Wilcoxon
signed-rank test to compare performance at the two time points across
eight sub-domains (pathophysiology, epidemiology, social context,
symptoms, evaluation, treatment, documentation, follow-up). Linear
regression and negative binomial modeling were used to determine change
in performance. Participants' satisfaction with the program was measured
on a separate survey using a 5-point Likert scale.
Results: 176 participants attended the training over 5 days in April
2016. Pooled linear regression controlling for test version showed an
overall performance increase of 16.8\% after participation (95\% 01
15.2-18.4). Statistically significant improvement was observed for seven
out of eight subdomains on test A and all eight subdomains on test B.
Overall, 71 (40.3\%) trainees achieved a score greater than 70\% on the
pretest, and 161 (91.5\%) did so on the posttest. Participants reported
a high degree of satisfaction with the training program's content and
its relevance to their daily work.
Conclusion: We describe a successfully implemented primary health care
provider focused training component of an innovative intervention aiming
to reduce health systems delays in cancer diagnosis in sub-Saharan
Africa. The training achieved district-wide participation, and
improvement in the knowledge of primary health-care providers in this
setting.},

Journal = {REHABILITATION COUNSELING BULLETIN},
Year = {2022},
Month = {2022 SEP 22},
Abstract = {Young adults with disabilities tend to have lower rates of employment
and career indicators as compared with youth without disabilities.
Therefore, understanding the factors that may influence such outcomes is
crucial. This study examined the future perceptions of 18 young adults
with physical disabilities while focusing on the barriers and supports
that may impact their transition into adult life. All participants were
living in a rehabilitative student community in southern Israel. They
participated in an in-depth semi-structured interview. Data analysis,
which was conducted according to an adaptation of the Consensual
Qualitative Research method, revealed four major domains: emotions,
future life roles, barriers, and supports. Findings emphasized that the
participants' disability was extremely dominant in their future
perceptions. In general, they expressed caution and concern about their
future. They also tended not to express detailed long-term planning.
Their perceptions focused on their future work, future intimate
relationships, and the need to manage simultaneously different roles.
When addressing their possible barriers and supports, they related both
to environmental (e.g., social stigma and community support) and to
personal (e.g., low self-esteem and high motivation) factors.
Implications for research and practice are discussed.},

Abstract = {While high rates of intra-Asian migration have rendered foreign migrants
physically ``invisible{''} in the past, migrants of increasingly
racially diverse backgrounds have started to enter South Korea in the
past decade. Through in-depth interviews with sub-Saharan African
migrants, this article examines the effects of colourism on three levels
of migrant adaptation: (1) host government legal policies, (2) host
societal reception, and (3) resources within the migrant community.
Findings reveal that African migrants, compared to their lighter skinned
Asian counterparts, are more vulnerable to precarious living conditions
regardless of their legal, educational, or occupational backgrounds. In
addition, Africans also lack resources in South Korean civil society as
well as within the African migrant community, and thus face formidable
barriers in collective resistance. Harsh discrimination in everyday life
causes many to adopt maladaptive behaviours - resisting linguistic
acquisition and adopting a sojourner orientation - triggering a negative
feedback loop that exacerbates their oppression.},

Abstract = {The lack of diversity in professions that have been dominated by one
social group has created a crisis that calls for partnerships between
government and civil society actors to create innovative models of
workforce development and timely policy decisions to dismantle
long-standing barriers of exclusion and income gaps based on race,
gender, class, religion, sexual orientation, and other constructs. The
field of early childhood education (ECE) has been impacted by long-run
social problems such as gender-imbalance (Skelton, 2011; Rohrmann, 2012;
Mottint, 2013), cultural barriers (Pruit, 2015; Drudy, 2008),
stereotypes about male teachers' nurturing abilities (Sargent, 2004;
Johnson, Middleton, Nicholson, \& Sandrick, 2010), homophobic reactions
(Pruit, 2015; King, 1998) and low-paying jobs (Whitebook et al., 2016;
Cooney \& Bittner, 2001), which have collectively deterred men from
working with young children. Empirical research can provide much-needed
data to help practitioners and policymakers make sentient decisions to
take on these social challenges. This paper shares findings from a
place-based study that uses mixed methods (e.g., surveys, interviews,
and on-site observations) to examine strategic efforts toward increasing
men's engagement in the ECE workforce. One of the study's key research
question is: How can empirical data inform governmental agencies and
civil society to garner more supports for augmenting male participation
in the ECE field? Over a twelve-month period, the study has gleaned and
analyzed empirical data from more than 60 culturally and linguistically
diverse male educators and program administrators (both male and female)
who work in a variety of early education and care programs operating in
low, moderate, and high-resource neighborhoods throughout New York City.
The research uses SPSS, NVivo and SurveyMonkey in its analysis to
triangulate demographic information and employment-related themes that
emerge from the data. This methodology has helped to uncover recurrent
patterns in the analysis of factors that influence men's engagement in
the ECE field. The paper concludes that gender-flexible policy and
equitable salary will reinforce institutional efforts that aim to
enhance men's involvement in the early childhood education workforce.},

Volume = {35},

Pages = {141-162},
Abstract = {Physically Disabled Citizens as Social Minority - A Basis for Preparing
the Anti-discrimination Legislation. In the presented text, the author
deals with the issue of physical disability and the impact of physical
disability on the life of an individual, i.e. what practical
disadvantages are imposed on the affected individual by having such
disability when compared to people having no such disability. The author
describes in more detail various models of physical disability that
involve the history of how society has been approaching this phenomenon.
According to the author, the presence of disadvantages arising from
physical disability that affect the life of a human beings entities the
disabled to be considered as a minority. The author makes distinction
between two types of approach to this minority: on one side, there is an
approach that is currently becoming a basis for preparing
anti-discrimination legislation and for launching a global campaign
promoting human rights protection; this approach is put to contrast
against a traditional collective approach that is based on general
indemnification of the disabled by means of social welfare and labour
policy measures. The author looks at some contradictory areas, which, in
real-life practice, make it more difficult to think of the disabled as
an internally as well as externally coherent minority. This fact,
however, does not weaken the UN-level effort of professional experts and
activists for human rights of the persons with physical disability who
are currently working on preparation of General Declaration of Human
Rights of Persons with Physical Disability.},

Abstract = {Purpose To explore how persons with psychiatric disabilities experience
facilitators of and barriers to participation in paid work in
transitional, supported, and open employment settings, in order to
provide guidance for efforts to attract and retain these persons in
gainful employment as a key dimension of recovery and community life.
Methods A metasynthesis was conducted using 16 qualitative studies
published between 1990 and 2011. Results Ten themes, two phases, and an
overarching metaphor were identified. The first five themes describe
facilitators of and impediments to getting a job (getting off the
bench): (1) fighting inertia; (2) taking control; (3) encouraging peers;
(4) disruptions related to the illness; (5) lack of opportunities and
supports. The next five themes represent facilitators of and impediments
to working (skating on the ice); (6) going mainstream; (7) social
cohesion; (8) clarity in role and responsibilities; (9) environmental
factors; (10) managing self-disclosure. We chose as our overarching
metaphor ``Balancing on Skates on the Icy Surface of Work,{''} as we
view both iceskaters and workers with psychiatric disabilities as
needing to achieve and maintain their balance while being ``on the
edge{''} between various extremities. Conclusion We have shown that, for
persons with psychiatric disabilities to ``get off the bench{''} and
``onto the ice{''} of employment, they may need to be supported in
finding and maintaining their balance in new situations through a
combination of learning new skills and competencies (learning how to
skate) while receiving in vivo assistance from empathic and
knowledgeable supporters (being coached while on the ice).},

Title = {Looking for Meaningful Work in the Architecture, Engineering, and
Construction Industry: A Structural Equation Modelling Analysis of
Refugee and Migrant Work-Seeking Experiences},
Journal = {JOURNAL OF CONSTRUCTION ENGINEERING AND MANAGEMENT},
Year = {2023},
Volume = {149},
Number = {7},
Month = {JUL 1},
Abstract = {This research develops and tests a structural equation model of the
factors which determine the work-seeking experiences of refugees and
skilled migrants in the Australian architecture, engineering, and
construction (AEC) industry. Past studies had identified a number of
potential barriers to employment that refugees and migrants face when
looking for work, though they are typically treated in isolation,
meaning that the way they interact in determining employment outcomes is
poorly understood. To address this gap in research, data was collected
from 100 migrants and refugees that were either working in or actively
seeking employment in the Australian AEC industry. The model, developed
through partial least square analysis, provides new insights into the
interaction between labor market familiarity, human capital, perceived
support structures, labor market discrimination, work-related
acculturation and the experiences of securing meaningful work in the
Australian AEC industry. The results indicate that the level of
familiarity of a candidate with the local market positively influences
their perceived support structures, which in turn impacts their
work-related acculturation, and opportunities for obtaining meaningful
work. Perceived labor market discrimination also influences the
relationship between the familiarity of the candidate with the market
and their perceived levels of support. It is concluded that policy
makers should focus on better integration of skilled migrants and
refugees in the local AEC industry via enhancing familiarity in the
local market, qualification and experience recognition, raising
awareness of work culture, and legal systems and procedures, along with
removing negative stereotypes to help reduce the barriers to employment
that they face.},

Struggle to Negotiate Teacher Working Conditions},
Journal = {CANADIAN JOURNAL OF EDUCATIONAL ADMINISTRATION AND POLICY},
Year = {2021},
Number = {196},
Pages = {83-101},
Abstract = {This paper presents an update of a 2010-literature review on class size
research completed as background in preparation of an affidavit on class
size provided by the lead author in the case of British Columbia
Teachers' Federation v. British Columbia, argued before the Supreme
Court of British Columbia in 2010, appealed ultimately to the Supreme
Court of Canada and ruled on November 10, 2016. We find that smaller
classes can improve teacher-student interactions and individualized
instruction, decreasing time spent on discipline issues, leading to
better student behaviour, attitude, and efforts. Smaller classes
generally have greater advantages for younger students, and effects are
more observable in class sizes of less than 20. Small classes may shrink
achievement gaps, decrease dropout rates, and increase high school
graduation rates, and appear to enhance academic outcomes, particularly
for marginalized groups. Researchers have detected class size effects
many years later. Small classes have been found to boost teachers'
morale and job satisfaction. While some studies have found effects at
the secondary and post-secondary level, results are generally
inconclusive at this level. Finally, some researchers have argued that
class size reductions are an inefficient use of funds which might be
better spent elsewhere in the system. The paper concludes with a brief
reflection on the process of providing this research for Supreme Court
case.},

Title = {Depressive symptoms among working women in rural North Carolina: A
comparison of women in poultry processing and other low-wage jobs},
Journal = {INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF LAW AND PSYCHIATRY},
Year = {2007},
Volume = {30},
Number = {4-5},
Pages = {284-298},
Month = {JUL-OCT},
Abstract = {We report on the prevalence of self-reported depressive symptoms and
associated factors among women employed in a poultry processing plant
and a community comparison group of other employed women in northeastern
North Carolina in the southern United States. The rural area is poor and
sparsely populated with an African American majority. The largest
employer of women in the area is a poultry processing plant. The goals
of the analyses were 1) to evaluate whether women employed in poultry
processing had a higher prevalence of depressive symptoms than other
working women from the same geographic area, and 2) to evaluate factors
which might be associated with depression among all of these working
women, including specific characteristics of their work environment.
Recruitment of participants (n=590) and data collection were by
community-based staff who were also African American women. Depressive
symptoms were measured using the Center for Epidemiologic Studies
Depression Scale (CES-D). Work organization factors were measured with
the Job Content Questionnaire (JCQ). Log-binomial regression was used to
calculate crude and adjusted prevalence ratios.
The prevalence of depressive symptoms, based on a CES-D measure of
sixteen or more, was 47.8\% among the poultry workers and 19.7\% among
the other working women (prevalence ratio=2.3). After adjusting for
socioeconomic variables, health-related quality of life and coping
style, the prevalence of depressive symptoms remained 80\% higher among
the poultry workers. The prevalence of symptoms was also higher among
those who perceived low social support at work, hazardous work
conditions, job insecurity, and high levels of isometric load. These
factors were all more common among the women employed in the poultry
plant. The concentration of this low-wage industry in economically
depressed rural areas illuminates how class exploitation and racial
discrimination may influence disparities in health among working women.

Title = {Global political economy and Frontier economies in Africa: Implications
from the oil and gas industry in Ghana},
Journal = {ENERGY RESEARCH \& SOCIAL SCIENCE},
Year = {2015},
Volume = {10},
Pages = {41-56},
Month = {NOV},
Abstract = {This review highlights what has been learnt from research on West
Africa's oil economy, Ghana and what remains to be studied. The existing
knowledge about the industry is both analytical (entailing different
frames of thinking, such as enclave and linkages approaches) and
empirical (including in what ways is the oil resource a blessing, a
curse, or both and to what extent regulations can attenuate or
accentuate undesirable outcomes). The existing research shows that to
probe whether there is a resource curse/blessing is to ask the question
the wrong way. Instead, it is more useful to ask in what ways the oil
and gas industry in Ghana driven by a fear of resource curse moulds and
is moulded by institutions and aspirations. The tendency has been to
emphasise the need for more economic growth and avoid state corruption.
Steeped in mainstream economic management, the interest is in bolstering
growth-enhancing processes, such as attenuating currency instability and
expending limited revenue on social development as a right because such
social expenditure is `unsustainable'. While this emphasis can achieve
the important goal of stabilising the economy, it totally ignores or
superficially considers the more complex ramifications of oil and gas
extraction, namely the growing sphere of influence of transnational oil
companies some of which have become key actors in planning, inequalities
across space in terms of income and productive resources, exploitation
of women, especially, and labour more generally, and ecological pillage.
When the policy focal lenses are changed to emphasise these other
ramifications, both the implications for and possibilities to use oil
resources for social development become more clearly evident and the
need to re-theorise the ramifications of oil ever more pressing. In
spite of this contribution to the global energy debate, the existing
body of knowledge in Ghana is weak in the sense that it lacks a careful
theorisation of oil as part of the biogas-electricity-oil-gas-biofuel
complex, how this complex is melded into the local/global capitalist
mode of production, contradictions in the process, attempts at
attenuating these contradictory processes, and how these attempts, in
turn, cause different and differential experiences across the entire
spectrum (up, mid, and downstream) of oil production, distribution, and
consumption. To address these gaps, this article briefly describes
several new approaches that could be used to bolster theorisation of the
oil and gas industry. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.},

Month = {2023 AUG 9},
Abstract = {Little is known of HPV vaccination (HPVV) recommendation practices among
healthcare providers who treat the Arab American community. Evidence
indicates that HPVV patient uptake is low in this population. A survey
was administered to healthcare providers (N = 46, 63\% response rate)
who treated \& GE; 5\% Arab American patients aged 9-26 years in areas
of New York City and New Jersey with large Arab American populations.
They were asked about barriers to HPVV recommendation and uptake among
their Arab American patients. Providers (Doctors of Medicine and
Osteopathy, Nurse Practitioners, and Physician Assistants) mostly worked
in pediatrics (41\%), primary care/internal medicine (26\%),
obstetrics/gynecology (20\%), and family medicine (15\%). Most (91\%)
were confident in their ability to effectively counsel their patients on
HPVV. The most frequent provider-reported barriers to administering the
HPVV to Arab American patients were patient cultural/religious practices
(reported by 67\%) and patient and provider difficulties with insurance
reimbursement (44\%). Most providers (84\%) agreed that
organizations/programs to increase HPVV uptake among Arab American
patients were needed. Providers felt that HPVV uptake could be increased
with educational materials in the patients' native languages ({''}very
useful,{''} 81\%) and provider cultural competency training ({''}very
useful,{''} 65\%). In responses to open-ended questions, cultural and
religious HPVV barriers were a salient topic, as were linguistic
barriers and provider burdens related to HPVV costs and regulations.
HPVV uptake could potentially be improved with Arabic language education
materials, provider education that is culturally and linguistically
tailored to the Arab American community, and policies to address HPVV
financial and regulatory burdens.},

Year = {2020},
Volume = {16},

Month = {DEC},
Abstract = {Background: Prior work has identified disparities in the quality and
outcomes of healthcare across socioeconomic subgroups. Medication use
may be subject to similar disparities.
Objective: To assess the association between demographic and
socioeconomic factors (gender, age, race, income, education, and rural
or urban residence) and appropriateness of medication use.
Methods: US adults aged >= 45 years (n = 26,798) from the REasons for
Geographic And Racial Differences in Stroke (REGARDS) study were
included in the analyses, of which 13,623 participants aged >= 65 years
(recruited 2003-2007). Potentially inappropriate medication (PIM) use in
older adults and drug-drug interactions (DDIs) were identified through
2015 Beers Criteria and clinically significant drug interactions list by
Ament et al., respectively as measures of medication appropriateness.
Multivariable logistic regression was used to assess the association of
disparity parameters with PIM use and DDIs. Interactions between race
and other disparity variables were investigated.
Results: Approximately 87\% of the participants aged >= 65 years used at
least one drug listed in the Beers Criteria, and 3.8\% of all
participants used two or more drugs with DDIs. Significant gender-race
interaction across prescription-only drug users revealed that white
females compared with white males (OR = 1.33, 95\% CI 1.20-1.48) and
black males compared with white males (OR = 1.60, 95\% CI 1.41-1.82)
were more likely to receive PIM. Individuals with lower income and
education also were more likely to use PIM in this sub-group. Females
were less likely than males (female vs. male: OR = 0.55, 95\% CI
0.48-0.63) and individuals resided in small rural areas as opposed to
urban areas (small rural vs. urban: OR = 1.37, 95\% CI 1.07-1.76) were
more likely to have DDIs.
Conclusion: Demographic and socioeconomic disparities in PIM use and
DDIs exist. Future studies should seek to better understand factors
contributing to the disparities in order to guide development of
interventions.},

Title = {What are the effects of anti-discriminatory legislation on socioeconomic
inequalities in the employment consequences of ill health and

Abstract = {Objective: To investigate how anti-discrimination legislation in the
form of the UK Disability Discrimination Act (DDA) affected
socioeconomic disparities in the employment rates of people with a
limiting long-term illness (LLTI) or disability.
Design: National cross-sectional data on employment rates for people
with and without an LLTI or disability were obtained from the General
Household Survey (GHS) for a 14-year period ( 1990-2003; 12 surveys).
Representative population samples were analysed. The sample size for the
GHS over the study period ranged from 19 193 to 24 657 and the average
response rate ranged from 72\% to 82\%.
Main outcome measure: Age-standardised employment rates for individuals
with and without an LLTI or disability, analysed by sex and
socioeconomic status.
Results: Analysis of covariance identified that the DDA had had a
negative effect on employment rates for individuals with an LLTI or
disability during the study period. This negative effect was found to be
differential according to social class ranging from no effect in social
classes I and II (22.86\%, 95\% CI 28.7\% to 2.99\%), increasing with
social class group, to a highly significant effect in social classes IV
and V (210.7\%, 95\% CI 26.16\% to 215.24\%). No differential effect was
identified by sex.
Conclusions: Anti-discriminatory legislation is not an effective way of
overcoming the employment consequences of ill health and disability, nor
is it a useful public policy tool in terms of reducing inequalities.},

Title = {Satellite Dependency: The Problem of Legitimating Structures for
Localized Arts and Cultural Policy},
Journal = {AMERICAN BEHAVIORAL SCIENTIST},
Year = {2023},
Month = {2023 JUN 17},
Abstract = {Against a backdrop of growing interest in localized cultural policy,
this article explores the example of Oldham, an ``overshadowed{''} town
(Pike et al., 2016) situated on the edge of the Northern English city of
Manchester (United Kingdom). While urban planning discourse has
acknowledged the impact of large cities on neighboring satellite areas,
finding that regeneration projects can result in a weak sense of place
for {[}such] secondary towns (Turok, 2009), few have considered the
extent to which arts organizations in secondary towns are able to
sustain their work and create their own narratives. Drawing from the
thought of Pierre Bourdieu and from theories of institutional logics, I
adopt a relational approach to exploring the ways in which organizations
within the local cultural ecology understand their operating
environment. Although cultural policy endeavors to use local arts
infrastructure to build local capacity, this case study reveals a
situation in which those organizations in satellite towns remain unable
to gain the status enjoyed by their metropolitan counterparts. Further,
it examples a field that remains highly institutionalized, hierarchical,
and increasingly professionalized. Institutional arrangements result in
organizations in the satellite-town depending upon its city neighbor for
crucial legitimating capitals. Just as stories of class reproduce
patterns of inequality, this situation is similarly true for
organizations. Organizations are found to be complicit in the production
and reproduction of inequalities within the institutional field, with
dominant organizations appearing more able to access legitimizing
capital than others. Ultimately, I argue that organizations in satellite
towns are heavily reliant on symbolic resources supplied by the
institutional fields of greater scope in which they are nested.
Organizations are required to harness the support of elite individuals
and dominant ``world-maker{''} organizations, which lie beyond their
immediate local context to secure legitimacy for themselves and their
activities. This situation I term ``satellite dependency.{''}},

Abstract = {Cancer is one of the most common causes of morbidity and mortality
today. It is estimated that around 43\% of cancer deaths are due to
tobacco use, unhealthy diets, alcohol consumption, inactive lifestyles
and infection. Low-income and disadvantaged groups are generally more
exposed to avoidable risk factors such as environmental carcinogens,
alcohol, infectious agents, and tobacco use. These groups also have less
access to the health services and health education that would empower
them to make decisions to protect and improve their own health.
Oro-pharyngeal cancer is significant component of the global burden of
cancer. Tobacco and alcohol are regarded as the major risk factors for
oral cancer. The populationattributable risks of smoking and alcohol
consumption have been estimated to 80\% for males, 61\% for females, and
74\% overall. The evidence that smokeless tobacco causes oral cancer was
confirmed recently by the International Agency for Research on Cancer.
Studies have shown that heavy intake of alcoholic beverages is
associated with nutrient deficiency, which appears to contribute
independently to oral carcinogenesis. Oral cancer is preventable through
risk factors intervention. Prevention of HIV infection will also reduce
the incidence of HIV/AIDS-related cancers such as Kaposi sarcoma and
lymphoma. The WHO Global Oral Health Programme is committed to work for
country capacity building in oral cancer prevention, inter-country
exchange of information and experiences from integrated approaches in
prevention and health promotion, and the development of global
surveillance systems for oral cancer and risk factors. The WHO Global
Oral Health Programme has established a global surveillance system of
oral cavity cancer in order to assess risk factors and to help the
planning of effective national intervention programmes. Epidemiological
data on oral cancer (ICD-10: C00-C08) incidence and mortality are stored
in the Global Oral Health Data Bank. In 2007, the World Health Assembly
(WHA) passed a resolution on oral health for the first time in 25 years,
which also considers oral cancer prevention. The resolution WHA60 A16
URGES Member states-To take steps to ensure that prevention of oral
cancer is an integral part of national cancer-control programmes, and to
involve oral-health professionals or primary health care personnel with
relevant training in oral health in detection, early diagnosis and
treatment;The WHO Global Oral Health Programme will use this statement
as the lead for its work for oral cancer control

Abstract = {The World Trade Organisation (WTO) is drawing up regulatory proposals
which could force governments to open up their public services to
foreign investors and markets. As part of the General Agreement on Trade
in Services (GATS) negotiations, the WTO working party on reform of
domestic regulation is developing a regulatory reform agenda which could
mark a new era of compulsion in international trade law. Article V1.4 of
the GATS is being strengthened with the aim of requiring member states
to show that they are employing least trade-restrictive policies. The
legal tests under consideration would outlaw the use of non-market
mechanisms such as cross-subsidisation, universal risk pooling,
solidarity, and public accountability in the design, funding, and
delivery of public services as being anti-competitive and restrictive to
trade. The domestic policies of national governments will be subject to
WTO rules, and if declared illegal, could lead to trade sanctions under
the WTO disputes panel process. The USA and European Union, with the
backing of their own multinational corporations, believe that these new
powers will advantage their own economies. Health-care professionals and
public-health activists must ensure that this secretive regulatory
reform process is opened up for public debate.},

Abstract = {The impact of the welfare-to-work (WtW) regional public transportation
program on participants in Chicago, Illinois, is reviewed 3 years after
an initial study. The regional transportation program provided free
transit passes and vanpool services to participants during their first 6
months of employment and training on regional transit options for job
developers. WtW participants' travel patterns were noted, social service
contractors were interviewed, and Temporary Aid to Needy Families (TANF)
clients were examined. In 2000, pass use for WtW participants and
regular 30-day pass users was determined to be almost identical because
of the strong economy of the late 1990s. Three years later, travel
patterns suggested that participants were beginning to find employment
farther from home, many in the job-rich O'Hare Airport corridor, and
that the costs and benefits of sending low-income workers to distant
work locations needed to be assessed. Although providing fare subsidies
that allow low-income workers to take advantage of existing
infrastructure may be helpful, transportation solutions probably will
not be enough to make a meaningful and sustained impact. The regional
transportation program illustrates the need for holistic approaches to
social policy. The disproportionate level of transit dependency, longer
travel times, and significantly higher use of public transit in many of
the Chicago communities that have the highest numbers of TANF clients
than in the city as a whole point to a serious need for affordable
housing near job centers in the Chicago region.},

Abstract = {FitzGerald and Arar (2018. ``The Sociology of Refugee Migration.{''}
Annual Review of Sociology 44 (1): 387-406) suggest that adapting the
New Economics of Labour Migration Theory (NELM) to include the risk of
violence as another risk managed through migration could provide a
framework to analyze refugee and `mixed migration' decision-making. I
use original data from a case study to evaluate this proposed
theoretical extension. Drawing on interviews with 21 middle-class Iraqis
who settled in the Greater Toronto area following the 2003 US-led
invasion, I find that participants who entered Canada as both refugee
and non-refugee migrants self-insured against risks to physical and
socioeconomic safety through migration. I argue that foregrounding state
policies, which delineate the legal statuses available to potential
migrants and their associated rights and obligations, improves NELM's
utility for explaining migration from conflict. By sampling on the
country of origin, rather than destination country entry category, I
show that host-state policies structure the risks of migration and,
consequently, family risk-management decisions and mobility patterns.
Additionally, those motivated to migrate due to violence can self-insure
against these risks by negotiating legal status as a means to safety if
they have the resources to meet restrictive policy requirements. Thus,
this paper suggests that better-resourced migrants may be at an
advantage when fleeing conflict.},

Journal = {MARINE POLICY},
Year = {2019},
Volume = {99},
Pages = {283-297},
Month = {JAN},
Abstract = {Aims: Seafarers are an occupational group amongst those at the highest
risk for stress, which may in turn influence their mental and physical
health. The primary aim of this study was to explore perceptions and
experiences of stress, resilience, and well-being amongst a sample of
Filipino merchant seafarers.
Methods: Focus groups were conducted with merchant seafarers working in
a large shipping organisation. Four focus groups were conducted, each
with eight ratings (n = 32) (all male). Participants were Filipino
ratings across all departments (deck, engine and galley), and worked
onboard liquefied natural gas carriers, product oil tankers and crude
oil tankers, operating globally. Qualitative data was analysed using the
descriptive and interpretive qualitative methods.
Results: Ratings communicated their perceptions and experiences of
stress, resilience and well-being in relation to 11 domains: workload;
safety; social; support; salary; food; shore leave and signing off and
on; nationality and culture; management; inequality; and optimisation.
Two critical broader themes interlaced the findings. The first, recent
changes, was highlighted by participants regarding the need for more
socialisation and shore leave for example. The second, organisational
justice, was emphasised by ratings regarding, for instance, the
importance of an equal and fair work environment.
Conclusion: Supporting the psychosocial well-being of seafarers may
benefit both the individual seafarer and their employer, through
improved well-being and increased work performance, comprising a
virtuous reinforcing cycle. Importantly, a work environment seen as
supportive and just is necessary to provide a good platform upon which
individually focused psychosocial interventions can be optimally
applied.},

Year = {2021},
Volume = {19},

Month = {DEC},
Abstract = {This article focuses on a particular group in capitalist society that is
disabled, demeaned and denied by capitalism itself, through processes of
economic exploitation, systematic and systemic class exclusion, and
discrimination/ prejudice-that is-the working class. In doing so I
recognise that the working class (defined as all those who sell their/
our labour power) is segmented horizontally into `layers,' or strata
(for example, the dispossessed, unemployed, unskilled, though to the
supervisory. managerial level/ stratum) and also vertically, for
example, by `race'and by gender, with particular ethnic groups, and
women in general, disabled and oppressed and exploited to a greater
degree than their/ our white, male sisters and brothers).
Analysing from a Classical Marxist perspective I address the structures
of the capitalist state through which this exclusion and
`subalternising'is imposed, through formal state structures such as
education, media, the panoply of state force and class law, as well as
through the material power of the capitalist class, expressed through,
for example, wage suppression and enforced immiseration of the majority
of the working class.
In doing so I address two types of neo-Marxist analysis- `Structuralist
neo-Marxism' and `Culturalist neo-Marxism', and the dialectical
relationship between them. They differ on such matters as: the degree of
`relative autonomy' for resistant agency; the relative impact and import
of cultural-ideological as against structural- material analysis; and
the salience or not of social class analysis, the Capital-Labour
relation, vis-a vis other forms of oppression such as `race; and
gender', and their implications for political resistance and
organisation at the cultural-ideological level and at the level of
power, the material power to reform and revolutionise economic and
social relations of Capital.
I propose an activist programme of resistance at two levels. Firstly,
societal level, looking at Marxists such as Marx and Engels, Rosa
Luxemburg, Lenin, Trotsky and the dialectical relationship between
Reform and Revolution.
Secondly, at the level of Education, both formal and informal (through
social movements, political parties, trade unions, through public
pedagogy for example). Within the formal education structures, I advance
specific proposals regarding schooling and teacher education.
This is a panoptic paper- the issues above are linked in terms of
Classical Marxist analysis of capitalism, class exploitation and
oppression, and the implications of such analysis for the praxis and
politics of resistance.},

Volume = {68},

Month = {APR},
Abstract = {Unauthorized migrants face health disadvantages in many receiving
nations. However, few studies have explored precisely how the condition
of ``illegality{''} influences illness experiences, medical treatment,
and convalescence. This article presents a case study from Germany
(2004-2006 and 2008), where unauthorized migrants face limited access to
health care and the threat of deportation results in avoidance of
services and treatment delays. This is confounded by unique laws which
essentially criminalize health care workers for aiding migrants. This
article provides a snapshot of 183 patients who attended a Berlin clinic
that functions as the single largest source of medical assistance for
unauthorized persons in Germany. The demographic information sketches a
picture of labor migrants with a mean age of approximately 29 years.
More women than men presented at this clinic, a result of its ability to
successfully arrange prenatal care and delivery as well as a reflection
of local labor markets. The diversity of countries of origin (n = 55) is
surprising, underscoring the utility of using illegal status as a
unifying variable to highlight migrants' shared position in the global
economy and the resulting barriers to basic medical services. Patients
presented with a range of illnesses typical for their age group.
However, the effects of illegal status resulted in four areas of
disparities: 1) limits to the overall quality and quantity of care for
mothers and infants: 2) delayed presentation and difficulties accessing
a regular supply of medication for patients with chronic illnesses; 3)
difficulties in accessing immediate medical attention for unpredictable
injuries and other acute health concerns;, and 4) a lack of mental
health care options for generalized stress and anxiety affecting health.
In Germany, an incoherent policy environment contributes to inadequate
services and treatment delays. Solutions must address these legal
ambiguities, which represent a primary barrier to equity in a nation
with otherwise universal health coverage. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All

Abstract = {Women's property ownership matters for their well-being and agency,
broader economic prosperity, and children's development. However, until
recently, a lack of data has constrained further exploration of gender
differences in property ownership in the developing world. Using data
from 41 developing countries, this paper contributes to the literature
by investigating gender gaps in the incidence of property ownership
among couples and the factors associated with these gaps, focusing on
the role of legal systems. We find that in almost all countries,
husbands are more likely to own property than wives. Across countries in
our sample, husbands are, on average, 2.7 times more like than wives to
own property alone and 1.4 times more likely to own property alone or
jointly. Within countries, gender gaps in the incidence of property
ownership are most pronounced for disadvantaged groups, that is, the
rural population and the poorest quintile. These gender gaps reflect a
variety of factors, including discriminatory laws with respect to
inheritance, property ownership, marital regimes, and laws that protect
from workplace discrimination. Countries with more gender egalitarian
legal regimes have higher levels of property ownership by married women,
especially housing, suggesting that legal reforms are a potential
mechanism to increase women's property ownership.},

Title = {Identifying student learning competencies for urban underserved practice
using a Delphi process},
Journal = {CURRENTS IN PHARMACY TEACHING AND LEARNING},

Abstract = {Introduction: The pharmacy profession has a growing opportunity to
provide high-quality patient care to urban underserved patients. The
Accreditation Council for Pharmacy Education (ACPE) has also recognized
the necessity of training pharmacy students to care for underserved
patients within Standard 3.5 in Standards 2016. Despite this recognized
need to train students to care for urban underserved patients, there is
limited literature to guide schools and colleges of pharmacy in
developing learning activities and curricula to meet this need.
Methods: This study utilized a three-round modified Delphi process to
develop learning competencies. Participation was solicited from pharmacy
practice faculty members of the American Association of Colleges of
Pharmacy (AACP) Health Disparities and Cultural Competency Special
Interest Group (SIG). This study used a proportion of experts rating
agree or strongly agree at 80\% to determine consensus.
Results: The expert pool had a combined 235 years of pharmacy practice
experience in urban underserved settings. Ten learning competencies were
developed and finalized: Identified learning competencies related to the
development of pharmaceutical and social knowledge base; development of
pharmaceutical care and social skills; and building awareness of
benefits and disadvantages of working with urban underserved patient
populations.
Discussion: The learning competencies described in this study provide
schools and colleges of pharmacy a tool to help guide learning activity
and curricular development to educate students to provide high-quality
and compassionate care to urban underserved patients.
Conclusions: This study is the first description of practice-based
student learning competencies for urban underserved pharmacy practice in
the literature.},

Title = {Sociodemographic inequities associated with participation in
leisure-time physical activity in sub-Saharan Africa: an individual
participant data meta-analysis},
Journal = {BMC PUBLIC HEALTH},
Year = {2020},
Volume = {20},
Number = {1},
Month = {JUN 15},
Abstract = {BackgroundLeisure-time physical activity (LTPA) is an important
contributor to total physical activity and the focus of many
interventions promoting activity in high-income populations. Little is
known about LTPA in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA), and with expected declines
in physical activity due to rapid urbanisation and lifestyle changes we
aimed to assess the sociodemographic differences in the prevalence of
LTPA in the adult populations of this region to identify potential
barriers for equitable participation.MethodsA two-step individual
participant data meta-analysis was conducted using data collected in SSA
through 10 population health surveys that included the Global Physical
Activity Questionnaire. For each sociodemographic characteristic, the
pooled adjusted prevalence and risk ratios (RRs) for participation in
LTPA were calculated using the random effects method. Between-study
heterogeneity was explored through meta-regression analyses and tests
for interaction.ResultsAcross the 10 populations (N =26,022), 18.9\%
(95\%CI: 14.3, 24.1; I-2 =99.0\%) of adults (>= 18years) participated in
LTPA. Men were more likely to participate in LTPA compared with women
(RR for women: 0.43; 95\%CI: 0.32, 0.60; P <0.001; I-2 =97.5\%), while
age was inversely associated with participation. Higher levels of
education were associated with increased LTPA participation (RR: 1.30;
95\%CI: 1.09, 1.55; P =0.004; I-2 =98.1\%), with those living in rural
areas or self-employed less likely to participate in LTPA. These
associations remained after adjusting for time spent physically active
at work or through active travel.ConclusionsIn these populations,
participation in LTPA was low, and strongly associated with sex, age,
education, self-employment and urban residence. Identifying the
potential barriers that reduce participation in these groups is
necessary to enable equitable access to the health and social benefits
associated with LTPA.},

Title = {The work-life experiences of an invisible workforce The case of live-in
women migrant domestic workers in Malaysia},
Journal = {EQUALITY DIVERSITY AND INCLUSION},
Year = {2020},
Volume = {39},
Number = {5, SI},
Pages = {567-583},
Month = {JUN 15},
Abstract = {Purpose The purpose of this paper is to explore the work-life (WL)
experiences of live-in women migrant domestic workers (MDWs), who
represent a significant proportion of migrant workers globally. MDWs
play a key role in enabling the work-life balance (WLB) of others,
namely the middle-class households that employ them. Yet, their
experiences have largely been invisible in mainstream WL literature. The
authors draw on an intersectional approach to frame the WL experiences
of this marginalized group of women at the intersection of being
secondary labour segment workers, with significant legal and employment
restrictions as migrant workers, who work and live in the same place as
their employers. Design/methodology/approach Qualitative interviews were
conducted with 13 women MDWs from Indonesia and the Philippines working
in Malaysia. The women talked about the meaning of work as MDWs, how
they maintain familial connections whilst working abroad, and how they
negotiate their WLB as live-in workers. Thematic analysis of the
interviews focused on the intersection of the women's multiple
dimensions of disadvantage, including gender, class and temporary
migrant-foreigner status, in shaping their accounts of the WL interface.
Findings Three thematic narratives highlight that any semblance of WLB
in the MDWs' lived experience has given way to the needs of their
employers and to the imperative to earn an income for their families
back home. The themes are: working as MDWs enables the women and their
families back home to have a life; the co-existence of WL boundary
segmentation and integration in relation to ``real{''} and
``temporary{''} families; and the notion of WLB being centred around the
women's ability to fulfil their multiple duties as MDWs and absent
mothers/sisters/daughters. Research limitations/implications - The study
is based on a small sample of live-in women MDWs in Malaysia, intended
to promote typically excluded voices and not to provide generalizable
findings. Accessing potential participants was a considerable challenge,
given the vulnerable positions of women MDWs and the invisible nature of
their work. Practical implications - Future research should adopt a
multi-stakeholder approach to studying the WL experiences of women MDWs.
In particular, links with non-governmental organizations who work
directly with women MDWs should be established as a way of improving
future participant access. Social implications - The study underscores
the existence of policies and regulations that tolerate and uphold
social inequalities that benefit primary labour segment workers to the
detriment of secondary labour segment workers, including women MDWs.
Originality/value Extant WL literature is dominated by the experiences
of ``the ideal work-life balancers{''}, who tend to be white
middle-class women, engaged in professional work. This study offers
original contribution by giving voice to a taken-for-granted group of
women migrant workers who make other people's WLB possible. Moreover,
the study challenges WL research by underscoring the power inequities
that shape the participants' marginal and disadvantaged lived experience
of work, life, family and WLB.},

Title = {Return to work factors and vocational rehabilitation interventions for
long-term, partially disabled workers: a modified Delphi study among
vocational rehabilitation professionals},
Journal = {BMC PUBLIC HEALTH},
Year = {2022},
Volume = {22},

Month = {MAY 2},
Abstract = {Background Long-term disability has a great impact on both society and
workers with disabilities. Little is known about the barriers which
prohibit workers with long-term disabilities from returning to work and
which interventions are best suited to counteract these barriers. The
main purpose of this study was to obtain consensus among professionals
on important return to work (RTW) factors and effective vocational
rehabilitation (VR) interventions for long-term (> 2 years), partially
disabled workers. Our three research questions were: (1) which factors
are associated with RTW for long-term disabled workers?; (2) which
factors associated with RTW can be targeted by VR interventions?; and
(3) which VR interventions are the most effective to target these
factors? Methods A modified Delphi Study was conducted using a panel of
22 labour experts, caseworkers, and insurance physicians. The study
consisted of several rounds of questionnaires and one online meeting.
Results The multidisciplinary panel reached consensus that 58 out of 67
factors were important for RTW and that 35 of these factors could be
targeted using VR interventions. In five rounds, the expert panel
reached consensus that 11 out of 22 VR interventions were effective for
at least one of the eight most important RTW factors. Conclusions
Consensus was reached among the expert panel that many factors that are
important for the RTW of short-term disabled workers are also important
for the RTW of long-term partially disabled workers and that a
substantial number of these factors could effectively be targeted using
VR interventions. The results of this study will be used to develop a
decision aid that supports vocational rehabilitation professionals in
profiling clients and in choosing suitable VR interventions.},

Abstract = {The authors conducted a study to address gaps in the literature
regarding parents' experiences of the transition of their child from
special education to postschool mainstream services. Specifically, this
study sought to explore the nature, factors, and psychological impact of
their child's transition to post-school services. To achieve these aims,
a qualitative, grounded theory approach was employed in which
semi-structured interviews were conducted with a small sample of parents
of children with mild intellectual disability living in the southern
region of Ireland. The results indicated that the transition process was
generally experienced as stressful, uncertain, and problematic,
particularly in terms of the bureaucratic aspects. The experiential
shift from school to vocational training and employment emerged as the
most salient in parents' perceptions. Parents also identified a range of
factors that served as barriers and supports of the transition process,
in which the role of the parent emerged as a key facilitative factor.
The findings suggest that considerable gaps remain between policy and
service provision in Ireland regarding transition planning and
postschool services for young adults with intellectual disabilities and
their families, often posing barriers to successful transitions.},

Abstract = {Parent Management TrainingOregon Model (PMTO (R)) is a set of
theory-based parenting programs with status as evidence-based
treatments. PMTO has been rigorously tested in efficacy and
effectiveness trials in different contexts, cultures, and formats.
Parents, the presumed agents of change, learn core parenting practices,
specifically skill encouragement, limit setting, monitoring/supervision,
interpersonal problem solving, and positive involvement. The
intervention effectively prevents and ameliorates children's behavior
problems by replacing coercive interactions with positive parenting
practices. Delivery format includes sessions with individual families in
agencies or families' homes, parent groups, and web-based and telehealth
communication. Mediational models have tested parenting practices as
mechanisms of change for children's behavior and found support for the
theory underlying PMTO programs. Moderating effects include children's
age, maternal depression, and social disadvantage. The Norwegian PMTO
implementation is presented as an example of how PMTO has been tailored
to reach diverse populations as delivered by multiple systems of care
throughout the nation. An implementation and research center in Oslo
provides infrastructure and promotes collaboration between practitioners
and researchers to conduct rigorous intervention research. Although
evidence-based and tested within a wide array of contexts and
populations, PMTO must continue to adapt to an ever-changing world.},

Title = {Financial evaluation of a Universal Basic Income in Andalusia},
Journal = {REVISTA DE ESTUDIOS REGIONALES},
Year = {2021},
Number = {120},
Pages = {129-164},
Month = {JAN-APR},
Abstract = {Nowadays, multiple debates exist in academic area and public opinion
about the advantages and disadvantages of the implementation of a
universal basic income (UBI). This is an unconditional, nonwithdrawable
income for every individual as a right of citizenship, and
obligation-free (Parijs and Vanderborght, 2005). UBI can be received
with other public benefits in kind (education, health, etc.) or in-cash,
and therefore does not predict the Welfare State reduction. In addition,
the right is strictly applied to the individual and the extension of the
right to the family unit is not possible. Finally, its enjoyment does
not imply any type of work or other compensation.
Philosophical, political and economic justifications of UBI are of
various kinds, although we can indicate three of them. It is a tool to
reduce poverty and income inequality (Atkinson, 1993, Smith, 2014).
Likewise, individuals are only free to be able to self-govern their
private life and participate in public life when they possess the
material means that allow them not to depend on others to live, being
RBU a public policy that guarantees this fundamental right (Domenech and
Bertomeu, 2005 Petit, 2013, Van Parijs and Vanderborght, 2005). Finally,
UBI could compensate the initial unequal starting situation of
individuals in society; that is, it serves to reduce inequality in the
initial endowment of assets and resources obtained without there being a
clear reciprocity in terms of productive activity previously carried out
(Birnbaum, 2016). In this way, it is implemented as a mechanism to
create equal opportunities (Rawls, 1971, Dworking, 1985, Roemer, 1998).
But this purpose is not new, the first academic argument arises in the
work of Paine in 1797, and he called citizen income (Cunliffe and
Erreygers, 2004), which is reformulated by economists of great prestige
on the XX century (Meade, 1938, Friedman, 1962, Tobin, Pechman and
Mieszkowski, 1967). Later, Van der Veen and Van Parijs (1986), reopen
the debate on their applicability in a context with high unemployment,
being precursors of economic viability research for different
territories: Europe (Callan and Sutherland, 1997), national contexts
(Atkinson, 1995, Torry, 2015, Colombino et al., 2010) or local
communities (Boffey, 2015).
Already in the 21st century, the UBI has taken on greater relevance due
to its translation into the political discussion, including the
international arena (OECD, 2017). This interest has been propitiated by
several events: the growth of inequality worldwide, which has also
affected Spain and Andalusia (Piketty, 2014, Stiglitz, 2015, Milanovic,
2011, Ayala, 2016), technological advances and their effects on
employment (Atkinson, 2015, World Economic Forum, 2016) and the
evaluations of its real implementation in different contexts. These
empirical estudies are showed it capacity to reduce inequality without
generating disincentives to work as in the case of: Alaska (Goldsmith,
2010); Namibia (Haarmann and Haarmann, 2015); California (Altman, 2016)
Utrech or Maastrich (BIEN, 2015), among others.
Several studies about UBI viability and its impact on inequality for
Spain have been carried out (Arcarons, Raventos and Torrens, 2014b,
Oliver and Spadaro, 2004) as well as for the Basque Country and
Catalonia (Arcarons et al., 2014a, 2005). In addition, different
legislative initiatives have been promoted at the regional and state
levels to support measures of this type (Martinez, 2008), although they
have not prospered.
In our work, we draw the economic viability of the UBI in Andalusia, an
autonomous region of Spain. The funding proposal is based on replacing
redundant economic benefits and an income tax reform in 2010. This year
is significant because correspond al period of economic crisis, and
there is not extra fiscal revenues from cicle economic.
The first step affect the monetary assistance benefits. All of them are
means-tested transfers, whose individual amount is not higher than UBI
disappear and their total budget allocation is used to finance the
reform. There are two benefits that exceed the amount of RBU granted to
each individual, such as contributory pensions and unemployment
benefits. In those cases, individuals continue to receive the amount
that exceeds the UBI.
The second step is a IRPF reform. All deductions are eliminated, the
existence of an exempt minimum equal to the amount of the UBI and
application of a linear rate of 49.5\%. We model a micro-simulation
using a sample of individual respondents and non-respondents settlements
of income tax from Institute of Fiscal Studies for 2010; as well as the
information provided by different public administrations on the amounts
of means-tested transfers.
Our results show the reform makes affordable the financial viability of
UBI in Andalusia. We evaluate two schemes for a population of 8,370,975
habitants in Andalusia in 2010. In the first, all residents receive
7.500 euros per month and the total budget is 62.782,31 millions of
euros. In the second, children under 18 years old recieve 1.500 euros
per month and the budget is 52.884,22 millons of euros. The first scheme
generates a deficit estimated at 8,377.6 millions of euros. Conversely,
the second scheme creates a surplus equal to 1,520.63 millions of euros.
This surplus could allow to reduce the marginal tax or to increase the
UBI, for example.
Regarding their redistributive impacts are remarkable. The first scheme
results show that the population among the first and the seventh deciles
are winners, and three last deciles are losers. In the second scheme the
winners are all population of two first deciles, more than 50\%
population among the third and the seventh deciles, and less than 50\%
for the rest of deciles.
Effective tax rates are not quite different in both schemes. The
effective tax rates in the first scheme are negative until fourth
decile, are minor until sixth decile, and tenth decile put up 34,52\%
effective tax.
The indicators of inequality, concentration and progressivity show a
large redistributive impact of the reform. When comparing the situation
before and after the reform (gross income ex ante vs. net income ex post
plus RBU), the Gini Index decreases by 23 percentage points in scheme
one, and 19 percentage points in scheme two. This result is
underestimating the total redistributive impact of the measure, since
the population outside the microsimulation is not included in the
analysis, as it is exempt from the current IRPF, which is a great
beneficiary of the reform.
The study provides solid evidence of financial viability of the
hypothetical implementation in Andalusia of taxtransfer reforms
embodying some version of a basic income policy. The reform shows great
effectiveness as a measure to reduce inequality. However, the subsequent
economic implications (impact on the labor market, poverty, etc.),
social (criterion of justice, principle of reciprocity) or politic
(conflict and pressure from interest groups) confirm the need of
complementary studies, in order to be raised in the political agenda.
In addition, RBU could serve as an instrument to obtain information
about certain individuals and groups, that due to their personal or
group characteristics, do not access the current subsidy system: lack of
information, misunderstanding of adminstrative procedures, and other
types of barriers they limit their request. Together, better social
inclusion results would be obtained.
Finally, the digital age is generating great economic and social
changes. In this context, a RBU could play a decisive role, as an
instrument of correction of technological unemployment, avoiding the
increase of inequality and increasing equal opportunities. The fiscal
viability calculation of RBU facilitates the way to further debates that
provide useful information to design the political agenda.},

Journal = {JOURNAL OF VOCATIONAL REHABILITATION},

Volume = {48},

Abstract = {BACKGROUND: There is entrenched exclusion of around half the working age
people with disability in Australia and elsewhere. There also appears to
be a lack of attention being paid to the `demand'side of efforts to
improve the employment of people with disability, particularly in
relation to small and medium sized organizations.
OBJECTIVE: To identify gaps in disability employment research, policy,
and strategies in relation to small to medium employers; and to identify
challenges and potential solutions for these employers in becoming
disability confident and inclusive organizations.
METHODS: A comprehensive search of literature was conducted including
published articles, books, and reports. Searches were also conducted on
relevant government and disability employment related web sites.
RESULTS: First, although larger employers are contributing to the
discussion of ways to increase the employment of people with disability,
small to medium employers are largely missing from the discussion.
Second, reliance on the broad business case argument alone for employing
people with disability, is not enough to change attitudes and
organizational cultures that are at the root of the workforce exclusion
of people with disability.
CONCLUSIONS: The major barrier to employment of people with disability
is negative attitudes that result in discriminatory organizational
cultures. Current initiatives in this area are not addressing the needs
or potential role of small to medium organizations. Solutions to both
these issues are described.},

Abstract = {Mental health in the workplace today are ubiquitous and cause
significant dysfunction in organizations (turnover, absenteeism,
presenteeism, early retirement, long sick...). Statements of
professional unfitness for depression is of particular concern. The
human and financial costs associated with the support of mental
disability is important, in France it is estimated to 14 billion euros.
Mental disorder in the workplace also has a significant impact on the
individual. If not always leads to actual inability to work, it usually
causes, from the disclosure of the disorder, professional inequalities
related to perceived environmental work disability. Therefore, this type
of public remains largely on the sidelines of a stable occupation and
all forms of recognition and undergo disqualifications and some forms of
exclusion. Instead of saving, the workplace can promote relapse and even
constitute a real obstacle to improving health. These exclusionary
behavior result in persistent employment resistance in France and
elsewhere, especially because of the prejudice of employers. These
resistances persist despite legal obligations in this regard (e.g. in
France: Law of 11 February 2005 on Equal Rights and Opportunities). To
address the issue of sustainable professional inclusion (recruitment,
integration and job preservation) of people with mental disabilities,
studies are especially developed for the rehabilitation in the workplace
of this public or accompanying us in their professional reintegration
into protected workplaces. We propose a reflection on the adaptation of
knowledge about psychological processes of hiring discrimination in the
particular employment situation of people with mental disabilities in
ordinary workplaces. Researches on social representations, stereotypes
and prejudices applied in the workplace help to understand the negative
attitudes and resistance to the hiring of people with mental
disabilities despite regulations. Representations of professional
efficiency, cognitive bias in social perception, personological
expectations and responsibilities about the success of the employment
integration of new employees strongly impact the hiring and integration
behaviors of actors of the company. Nevertheless, the influence of the
organizational context was highlighted in the researches in psychology
of organizations. Recruitment and integration practices implemented by
organizations, the procedures used to recruit (procedural justice) and
the quality of interpersonal treatment of individuals (interpersonal
justice) are essential elements of socialization. Disability is
recognized as a particularly salient dimension and effective in
activating cognitive processes biased. Individual and/or collective
courses of action as persuasive communication, suppression and dilution
of stereotypes, self-regulation of prejudice, intergroup contact and the
sharing of values, affirmative action, promoting diversity, are proposed
to modify these psychological barriers. However, their effectiveness is
moderated by various individual factors such as the level of prejudice
of actors, their previous work experience of disabled workers, their
commitment to the values promoted by the organization for example, or
organizational and structural factors such as the characteristics of the
organization, the degree of formalization of hiring procedures, social
policy of the organization and how it is conveyed and received by
workers...
These studies support the conclusion that the process of professional
inclusion of public considered as ``non-standard{''} is complex. These
tracks remain to be tested under the mental disability taking into
account the type of company and characteristics of actors that
constitute them. (C) L'Encephale, Paris, 2014.},

Title = {Palliative care specialists' perceptions concerning referral of
haematology patients to their services: findings from a qualitative
study},
Journal = {BMC PALLIATIVE CARE},
Year = {2018},
Volume = {17},
Month = {FEB 21},
Abstract = {Background: Haematological malignancies (leukaemias, lymphomas and
myeloma) are complex cancers that are relatively common, affect all ages
and have divergent outcomes. Although the symptom burden of these
diseases is comparable to other cancers, patients do not access
specialist palliative care (SPC) services as often as those with other
cancers. To determine the reasons for this, we asked SPC practitioners
about their perspectives regarding the barriers and facilitators
influencing haematology patient referrals.
Methods: We conducted a qualitative study, set within the United
Kingdom's (UK's) Haematological Malignancy Research Network
(HMRN:www.hmrn.org), a population-based cohort in the North of England.
In-depth, semi-structured interviews were conducted with 20 SPC doctors
and nurses working in hospital, community and hospice settings between
2012 and 2014. Interviews were digitally audio-recorded, transcribed and
analysed for thematic content using the `Framework' method.
Results: Study participants identified a range of barriers and
facilitators influencing the referral of patients with haematological
malignancies to SPC services. Barriers included: the characteristics and
pathways of haematological malignancies; the close patient/haematology
team relationship; lack of role clarity; late end of life discussions
and SPC referrals; policy issues; and organisational issues. The main
facilitators identified were: establishment of interdisciplinary working
patterns (co-working) and enhanced understanding of roles; timely
discussions with patients and early SPC referral; access to information
platforms able to support information sharing; and use of indicators to
`flag' patients' needs for SPC. Collaboration between haematology and
SPC was perceived as beneficial and desirable, and was said to be
increasing over time.
Conclusions: This is the first UK study to explore SPC practitioners'
perceptions concerning haematology patient referrals. Numerous factors
were found to influence the likelihood of referral, some of which
related to the organisation and delivery of SPC services, so were
amenable to change, and others relating to the complex and unique
characteristics and pathways of haematological cancers. Further research
is needed to assess the extent to which palliative care is provided by
haematology doctors and nurses and other generalists and ways in which
clinical uncertainty could be used as a trigger, rather than a barrier,
to referral.},

Month = {MAR},
Abstract = {Comparative international data on patterns of inequality in child
welfare interventions, for example, the proportion of children about
whom there are substantiated child protection concerns or who are in
out-of-home care, are far less developed than data about inequalities in
health. Few countries collect reliable, comprehensive information and
definitions, methods of data collection and analysis are rarely
consistent. The four UK countries (England, Northern Ireland, Scotland
and Wales) provide a potential `natural experiment' for comparing
intervention patterns. This study reports on a large quantitative,
descriptive study focusing on children in contact with children's
services on a single date in 2015. It found that children's chances of
receiving a child protection intervention were related to family
socio-economic circumstances, measured by neighbourhood deprivation,
within all four countries. There was a strong social gradient which was
significantly steeper in some countries than others. Ethnicity was
another important factor underlying inequalities. While inequalities in
patterns of intervention between the four countries were considerable,
they did not mirror relative levels of deprivation in the child
population. Inequalities in intervention rates result from a combination
of demand and supply factors. The level and extent of inequity raise
profound ethical, economic and practical challenges to those involved in
child protection, the wider society and the state.},

Abstract = {Objective: The current study examined reported patterns of utilization
and barriers to early and school-age interventions, as well as
directions for future care, among families of children with congenital
or neonatal conditions with known-risk for poor neurocognitive
development. The impact of the child's severity of injury, condition and
adaptive functioning, as well as family sociodemographic factors were
considered.
Methods: The sample included 62 parents (53 mothers, 5 fathers, 4
mother-father pairs) of children diagnosed with neonatal stroke, hypoxia
ischemic encephalopathy (HIE), and congenital heart disease (CHD)
ranging in age between 3 to 9 years (mean age = 4.5 years, SD = 1.82).
Results: In this sample, approximately 80\% of children were reported to
have had utilized one or more therapies. The most frequent services
utilized included: (a) speech and language therapy, (b) occupational
therapy, and (c) physical therapy. Less than 10\% of sample reported
utilizing any psychological therapies. Common family barriers to all
interventions included time off work, lack of childcare, and
transportation. Parents of children with more severe injury or condition
reported that their children were utilizing a greater number of
interventions and also perceived a greater number of barriers. Over half
of the parents expressed a need for more parent support groups, remote
psychosocial services, and individualized psychological therapy for
themselves or their family.
Conclusions: Findings highlight patterns of utilization and perceived
gaps in early and school-age interventions for children with congenital
or neonatal conditions that impact neurodevelopment. Direction for
clinical care and improved intervention opportunities are discussed.},

Volume = {9},

Pages = {69-82},
Abstract = {Street life is a challenge for survival, even for adults, and is yet
more difficult for children. They live within the city but are unable to
take advantage of the comforts of urban life. This study focused
primarily on access to health and education in street children from 6 to
18 years old in the Indian metropolises of Mumbai and Kolkata. The study
also aimed to assess the role of social work interventions in ensuring
the rights of street children. A combination of quantitative and
qualitative research methodologies was used. Convenience sampling was
used to recruit 100 children. Data were collected on a one-to-one basis
through semi-structured interview schedules and by non-participant
observation. Findings revealed that extreme poverty was the primary
cause for the increasing numbers of street children. Lack of awareness
among illiterate parents regarding educational opportunities kept most
children away from school attendance. Factors such as lack of an
educational ambience at home made it difficult for the children to work
on their lessons outside the premises of the institution. It was evident
that those living with their parents had better access to health care
facilities than did those living on their own; however, nongovernmental
organizations made significant efforts to redress this imbalance,
setting up health check-up camps at regular intervals. Although exposure
to harsh reality at an early age had resulted in a premature loss of
innocence in most, making them sometimes difficult to work with, the
nongovernmental organizations were striving to ensure child
participation and the growth of individual identity. The
interventionists therefore focused on developing a rights-based
approach, rather than a charitable one.},

have characterised the major future of work challenges associated with
new technologies and inequality. It identifies some similarities in
viewpoints, including about the unevenness of job changes caused by new
technologies and about the declining labour income share, a key measure
of inequality. However, there are major points of differentiation. The
ILO, OECD and UNDP express serious concerns about the interaction
between new technologies and growing inequalities, on the one hand, and
a rise in precarious work, concentration of corporate power and erosion
of labour bargaining power on the other. Also, UNIDO emphasises the
inequalities in technological capacities between developed and
developing countries, which make it difficult for markets to distribute
the gains from growth evenly. While the World Bank makes some
concessions, it remains less open to real-world heterodox evidence about
how labour markets function in society. The World Bank aside, there is a
growing consensus that labour institutions around the world need to be
reinvigorated in order to respond to the challenges facing the future of

Title = {Evaluating the feasibility of the Community Score Card and subsequent
contraceptive behavior in Kisumu, Kenya},
Journal = {BMC PUBLIC HEALTH},
Year = {2022},
Volume = {22},
Number = {1},
Month = {OCT 24},
Abstract = {Background Women seeking family planning services from public-sector
facilities in low- and middle-income countries sometimes face
provider-imposed barriers to care. Social accountability is an approach
that could address provider-imposed barriers by empowering communities
to hold their service providers to account for service quality. Yet
little is known about the feasibility and potential impact of such
efforts in the context of contraceptive care. We piloted a social
accountability intervention-the Community Score Card (CSC)-in three
public healthcare facilities in western Kenya and use a mix of
quantitative and qualitative methodologies to describe the feasibility
and impact on family planning service provision. Methods We implemented
and evaluated the CSC in a convenience sample of three public-sector
facility-community dyads in Kisumu County, Kenya. Within each dyad,
communities met to identify and prioritize needs, develop corresponding
indicators, and used a score card to rate the quality of family planning
service provision and monitor improvement. To ensure young, unmarried
people had a voice in identifying the unique challenges they face, youth
working groups (YWG) led all CSC activities. The feasibility and impact
of CSC activities were evaluated using mystery client visits,
unannounced visits, focus group discussions with YWG members and
providers, repeated assessment of score card indicators, and service
delivery statistics. Results The involvement of community health
volunteers and supportive community members - as well as the willingness
of some providers to consider changes to their own behaviors-were key
score card facilitators. Conversely, community bias against family
planning was a barrier to wider participation in score card activities
and the intractability of some provider behaviors led to only small
shifts in quality improvement. Service statistics did not reveal an
increase in the percent of women receiving family planning services.
Conclusion Successful and impactful implementation of the CSC in the
Kenyan context requires intensive community and provider sensitization,
and pandemic conditions may have muted the impact on contraceptive
uptake in this small pilot effort. Further investigation is needed to
understand whether the CSC - or other social accountability efforts -
can result in improved contraceptive access.},

Abstract = {Social determinants of health (SDOH) are the greatest predictors of
one's health status. There are clear SDOH disparities present in the
United States, many of which have been especially evident during the
COVID pandemic. SDOH have become a greater focus of payers, including
Centers for Medicare \& Medicaid Services (CMS). CMS has updated the
reimbursement structure of Medicare and Medicaid to incentivize more
SDOH-related interventions. Providers are also growing increasingly
attentive to the SDOH needs of their patients, but often are unable to
sufficiently address them outside of care settings. The combination of
increased SDOH funding with inefficient mechanisms to meet patients'
SDOH needs has led to the emergence of the for-profit SDOH industry. The
purpose of this paper was to investigate the industry and identify its
size, scope, and future implications. The authors conducted an analysis
of for-profit SDOH companies using a third-party industry research
platform. A collection of 58 companies was identified with \$2.4 billion
in funding and a total valuation of over \$18.5 billion as of July,
2021. Two literature searches were conducted to support strategy
recommendations for critically evaluating SDOH outcomes from these
companies, and to determine the downstream effects they will have on
community-based organizations also working to improve SDOH.},

Abstract = {Access to effective services is imperative to address the many health
and mental health disparities that lesbian, gay, bisexual, and
transgender (LGBT) people face. This population, however, remains
underserved and often ill-served in health care environments.
Furthermore, interactions between system-and individual-level dimensions
of access create barriers to service engagement. Within much of the
extant literature surrounding health care barriers among LGBT people,
the rich narratives and varied experiences of LGBT community members
from diverse backgrounds have often been excluded. The current
interview-based study was conducted with a sample of 40 self-identified
LGBT adults living in New York City. Participants were recruited through
flyers distributed to LGBT-specific social and health service
organizations. Twenty-nine participants who discussed health care access
as a major health concern were included in the current study. Framework
analysis revealed barriers stemming from characteristics of services and
providers (system-level) and characteristics of care-seekers
(individual-level) as major health concerns. The root causes of
system-level barriers were all attributed to social-structural factors
that worked to exclude and erase LGBT people from the institutions that
shape the health and mental health systems. Individual-level barriers
were attributed to both individual and social-structural factors, such
as health literacy and stigma. Participants linked access barriers to
forgone care and to other health and mental health concerns within their
communities. We argue that addressing barriers at the individual and
sociostructural levels will better serve LGBT communities.
Public Policy Relevance Statement
Access to health and mental health services is a major health concern
among LGBT community members. The LGBT population experiences poor
health and mental health outcomes related to barriers to care. Policies
set forth by the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (e.g.,
nondiscrimination protections, expanded insurance coverage) remain
important initiatives to promote equitable health care access and
enhance the health and wellbeing of LGBT care-seekers.},

Abstract = {The study ``Media use of Persons with Disabilities{''} (MMB16 {[}1])
provides data on disabled people's access to and personal use of media
and the limitations in the use of such media. Nowadays, full and
effective participation in society {[}2] is not possible without full
and effective participation in media and communication. To date, there
is no valid data about media usage by the disabled in Germany.
This survey consists of interviews with 610 individuals with visual,
hearing or physical impairments, or learning difficulties. Expert
interviews and focus groups complete the study. The findings of this
study show that impairment comes with specific limitations as regards
media access and usage. In general, people with impairments and in
particular those with learning difficulties, access connected devices
more rarely than the general population. They go on the internet less
often and use it less for communication and information. Many blind
people are offliners, in particular if they acquired the impairment in
adulthood. Age is an important personal factor determining media usage.
The interaction of age, impairment and other context factors in
particular, leads to the extremely rare use of digital media by older
people. The disabled are heterogeneous. Full and equal participation in
media and communication depends on the context factors which influence
the participation level: age, housing, employment, obstacles and
barriers to access, technical and personal support.},

Abstract = {The vast majority of scholarship on the integration of newcomers to
Canada takes place within the large urban centres of Toronto, Vancouver,
and Montreal (Shields, Turegun, \& Lowe, 2014). In recent decades,
however, higher numbers of immigrants are choosing to settle in rural
areas for lower costs of living, local job opportunities, and quality of
life (Manitoba Labour and Immigration, 2015). In addition, larger
numbers of privately sponsored refugees are being sponsored into smaller
towns and cities (Rural Development Institute, 2016). Finally, the
Government of Canada uses immigration as an intentional strategy to grow
regional centres (Burstein, 2010). These shifts mean that rural areas
are seeing larger numbers of immigration, without the benefit of years
of extensive research to know how these areas are uniquely positioned to
welcome newcomers, and what barriers and opportunities exist for
integrating newcomers in rural areas.
This article will explore the topic of newcomer integration in rural
areas as it relates to language learning. Language is one aspect of
integration that can promote all other aspects of integration in an
intersectional (Anthias, 2008) way. As a newcomer has more language
ability, they can have easier access in social integration, economic
integration, cultural integration, as well as political and civic
integration (Derwing \& Waugh, 2012). This article will examine the
existing literature on rural immigration, related theory, and the unique
nature of rural areas, including common barriers and opportunities.
Finally the article will explore promising practices and innovations
that are being used in Canada that have potential for impact in smaller
centres, practical considerations for education and teacher preparation,
and a critical analysis of teacher education programs.},

Year = {2011},
Volume = {45},
Number = {11},

Month = {NOV},
Abstract = {Objectives: We sought to examine potential barriers to the use of
evidence-based guidelines for youth depression in a tertiary specialist
mental health service, as part of an initiative to implement evidence
based practice within the service.
Methods: This was a qualitative study adopting a social constructionist
perspective using focus groups. The focus groups, conducted with all
clinicians (medical and allied health), were audiotaped, transcribed and
thematic analysis was undertaken. Clinicians were asked about the
barriers to implementing four key recommendations from the National
Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) guidelines.
Results: Barriers existed at (i) the individual clinician level; (ii)
the clinical level in terms of the presentation of young people; and
(iii) the service level. The key individual clinician level barrier was
a stated belief that the guidelines were not relevant to the young
people presenting to the service, with little evidence to guide
practice. Related, the main barrier with regard to the clinical
presentation was the severity and complexity of this presentation, often
making the delivery of interventions like cognitive behavioural therapy
(CBT) difficult. At the service level, a lack of integration with
primary and secondary level care meant sequencing interventions
according to guideline recommendations was difficult.
Conclusions: There is a clear imperative to develop the evidence base to
ensure that effective treatments for young people aged up to 25 years
with severe and complex disorders that include comorbid conditions,
suicide risk and psychosocial difficulties are investigated and
disseminated. Furthermore, this work has highlighted the need for
greater investment in models of care that ensure integration between
existing primary and secondary care and enhanced specialist early
intervention mental health services for young people.},

physical disabilities: An across disability type analysis},
Journal = {JOURNAL OF VOCATIONAL REHABILITATION},
Year = {2018},
Volume = {48},
Number = {2},
Pages = {207-218},
Abstract = {BACKGROUND: Extant research has reported on the factors associated with
seeking and maintaining employment for individuals with different types
of physical disabilities, such as cerebral palsy (CP), multiple
sclerosis (MS), and spinal cord injuries (SCI). Some of these factors
are barriers and others are facilitators. However, research has not
determined whether the inhibiting and facilitating employment
experiences of people with physical disabilities are similar across type
of physical disability.
OBJECTIVE: The goal of this study was to compare the employment
experiences of people with physical disabilities with three different
disabilities including CP, MS, and SCI to determine whether these
employment experiences are similar.
METHODS: Homogenous focus groups were conducted with individuals with
CP, MS, and SCI concerning their employment experiences. These 18 focus
groups were conducted telephonically, audio recorded, and lasted
approximately 60 minutes each. Data from each disability type was
analyzed separately and across disability type.
RESULTS: Two themes were common among participants in the three
disability types: 1) Health and 2) Barriers to Overcome. However, there
were differences among the disability types within these themes. Some of
these differences were unique to MS.
CONCLUSIONS: This study provides a perspective on working with CP, MS,
or SCI informed directly by individuals living with these disabilities,
whether they were employed or unemployed, and gives a voice to the
employment experiences of the individuals. The findings present
information on the similarities and differences that individuals with
various physical disabilities face when working.},

Title = {Strengthening the migrant-friendliness of Thai health services through
interpretation and cultural mediation: a system analysis},
Journal = {GLOBAL HEALTH RESEARCH AND POLICY},
Year = {2020},
Volume = {5},
Number = {1},
Month = {DEC 8},
Abstract = {Background In addition to healthcare entitlements, `migrant-friendly
health services' in Thailand include interpretation and cultural
mediation services which aim to reduce language and cultural barriers
between health personnel and migrants. Although the Thai Government
started implementing these services in 2003, challenges in providing
them still remain. This study aims to analyse the health system
functions which support the interpretation and cultural mediation
services of migrant health worker (MHW) and migrant health volunteer
(MHV) programmes in Thailand. Methods In-depth interviews were conducted
in two migrant-populated provinces using purposive and snowball
sampling. A total of fifty key informants were recruited, including
MHWs, MHWs, health professionals, non-governmental organisation (NGO)
staff and policy stakeholders. Data were triangulated using information
from policy documents. The deductive thematic analysis was classified
into three main themes of evolving structure of MHW and MHV programmes,
roles and responsibilities of MHWs and MHVs, and supporting systems.
Results The introduction of the MHW and MHV programmes was one of the
most prominent steps taken to improve the migrant-friendliness of Thai
health services. MHWs mainly served as interpreters in public
facilities, while MHVs served as cultural mediators in migrant
communities. Operational challenges in providing services included
insufficient budgets for employment and training, diverse training
curricula, and lack of legal provisions to sustain the MHW and MHV
programmes. Conclusion Interpretation and cultural mediation services
are hugely beneficial in addressing the health needs of migrants. To
ensure the sustainability of current service provision, clear policy
regulation and standardised training courses should be in place,
alongside adequate and sustainable financial support from central
government, NGOs, employers and migrant workers themselves. Moreover,
regular monitoring and evaluation of the quality of services are
recommended. Finally, a lead agency should be mandated to collaborate
with stakeholders in planning the overall structure and resource
allocation for the programmes.},

Title = {Do cooperatives have favorable contexts for gender equality?: Special
reference to the province of Teruel},
Journal = {CIRIEC-ESPANA REVISTA DE ECONOMIA PUBLICA SOCIAL Y COOPERATIVA},
Year = {2016},
Volume = {88},
Pages = {61-92},
Month = {DEC},
Abstract = {Objectives
Cooperative enterprises have different organizational and operational
characteristics that could provide favorable conditions for gender
equality. In this paper, we describe several aspects of the working
conditions and workplace flexibility of women in cooperatives in the
province of Teruel, a region that is characterized by its low population
density. In addition, we study other aspects involved in the running of
these organizations in the context of social economy, and how this could
have potential benefits and advantages for the personal and professional
development of women and their families. A greater understanding of
these organizations will facilitate the development of actions aimed at
strengthening business projects that contribute to integrate women's
needs and the needs of their surrounding environments.
Design/methodology/approach
A qualitative analysis has been carried out through in-depth interviews,
which have provided more detailed and extensive information than other
available methodologies. The initial sample consists of 99 cooperatives,
representing 31.03\% of the total population of cooperative entities in
the province of Teruel, Spain. This sample was then filtered by
selecting the cooperatives which have a greater percentage of female
employees higher than male employees, or have more female than male
directors, including those cooperatives which fulfilled both of these
conditions. There resulting set of 12 cooperatives with a large number
of female employees among its staff or with high female participation in
their boards of directors. We subjected to semi-structured interviews,
one per cooperative, of their partners and/or employees, using a
semi-structured questionnaire.
Results / Research limitations / Implications
The results suggest that self-management allows greater flexibility than
other forms of enterprise in areas such as conciliation or working
conditions. Likewise, women recognize that their involvement with the
entity must be greater, since their future employment depends on the
survival of the cooperative. One factor that affects the reconciliation
of family, work and personal life is the presence or absence of
seasonality in the activities carried out by the cooperative. Internal
measures for the seasonal adjustment of demand could contribute to
improving the reconciliation and also to reducing inequalities between
men and women.
With regard to working conditions, there are opportunities for
conciliation and timetable flexibility that rely on the goodwill and the
climate of trust existing in the cooperatives. This issue is closely
related to the good relations among its members, as evidenced by the
opinions of the respondents and the presence of female leadership
focused on greater collaboration and teamwork. It is noteworthy that
these cordial relations extend even among the companies in the sector.
Collaborative attitudes between cooperatives of the same sector of
activity are frequent.
Self-management allows the working day to be better and more easily
adjusted to the specific needs of female employees as compared to other
styles of management. In general, working hours are not cause for
concern. Women are aware that if the activity requires a greater time
investment, their commitment must be greater, since their future careers
depend of the survival of the cooperative
The good relations existing among the different cooperatives in the
province are remarkable. The study emphasizes the establishment of
mutually supportive relationships with other cooperatives and, in many
cases, the use of synergies with the competing companies. This
reinforces the expected behaviors for organizations based on
inter-cooperation and networking.
Due to the peculiarities of the context in which these cooperatives
operate, mainly in rural areas, cooperatives can cover the needs of the
partners, boost rural development, to improve trade activities, provide
support and advice to access to new foreign markets; improve structures
through integration processes and obtain competitive advantages with
formulas of inter-cooperation with other groups.
Regarding the support of the public administrations in issues related to
paperwork or consultation and advisory services, no conclusive results
have been obtained. Relations with public administrations, however,
could be improved to take full advantage of the potential of wealth
creation in cooperatives and to achieve greater effectiveness of
policies of public support for the promotion of female entrepreneurship
and social economy entities. The recognition of gender inequalities in
the labor and business sphere by the Spanish government, expressed
through the Gender Equality Act, should be taken into account when
implementing administrative procedures for cooperatives in order to be
more sensitive to women's necessities.
Simplification of administrative procedures and a more individualised
guidance and advice for female entrepreneurs in the social economy
should be included in the agendas of public authorities. These measures
become especially sensitive in territories such as Teruel, where the
weakness of its business fabric and its relatively high rate of female
unemployment are clear components of the economic stagnation of the
province.
Some questionnaire answers show that cooperative principles are present
in these entities, as is the case in one company where the partners
reported being satisfied and happy to contribute to the respect of
agriculture and to promote environmental care.
In addition to the financial income associated with participation in the
cooperative, other non-economic ``intangible{''} benefits related to
personal satisfaction and fulfilment derived from such participation
should be highlighted. This added value must also be taken into account
at the time of quantifying the benefits of both cooperatives and the
social economy as a whole, and especially when formulating strategy and
assessing the results achieved.
Practical conclusions and original value
The findings show that there is still a long way to go to achieve the
reconciliation of personal, family and work life that allows full
equality. This issue reveals the need for action, both institutionally,
through a suitable framework of support measures, and internally, within
the entities themselves, through incentives leading to the full
implementation of these cooperative values and rules of conduct.
Our results give new evidence of the internal and external social
policies, and of institutional and business relationships of these
cooperatives characterized by a high representation of women. It is also
noted that self-management allows improve adaptation of the working
conditions and flexibility of women in cooperative workplaces. Moreover,
they realize that their involvement must be greater, since future
employment depends on the survival of the cooperative. It would be
interesting for future studies to compare these results with the
equivalent relationships observed between shareholders and employees in
other types of entities. Future research could also examine whether
other factors, such as the size of the organization, can influence the
existence of harmonious relations.},

evaluation of the progress made in the provision of quality early
childhood education throughout the twenty-first century. Early childhood
care and education has a long history in Vietnam. As early as the 1900s,
ECCE was provided to support women's work, as Vietnam was an agrarian
society. Following independence of France in 1954, Vietnam was involved
in war and associated hardship until the 1970s so it was not until the
1980s that large-scale reforms in education became a significant focus
of the government. Early childhood care and education was made an
official department in 1991. Throughout the 1990s and into the
twenty-first century, universal access to ECCE has been a priority with
remarkable achievements gained. However, access to ECCE in mountainous
areas, amongst ethnic minority groups and for many disadvantaged people,
needs improvement. Vietnam has made significant progress in meeting
accessibility, affordability, accountability, sustainability and social
justice goals in ECCE, ongoing investment, both financial and in terms
of human resources, is required to continue strengthening ECCE more
uniformly across the country.},

Title = {Demographic supplement for motherhood within the framework of equality
policies. Analysis of objectives, results and outcomes},
Journal = {CIRIEC-ESPANA REVISTA DE ECONOMIA PUBLICA SOCIAL Y COOPERATIVA},
Year = {2020},
Volume = {98},

Abstract = {This study analyses, from the perspective of public economics, the
Demographic Supplement for Motherhood (CDM) introduced in the Spanish
Social Security System in 2016. This measure is a supplement added to
the contributory pension received on retirement, widowhood or disability
for women who began to receive a pension and who have had two or more
children. It was introduced with two objectives in mind: to reduce the
gender gap in pensions and to socially recognise the contribution of
motherhood to the pension system.
In this paper, a socioeconomic analysis of this measure is carried out.
The objectives and issues of this measure are reviewed and its
distributional effects are analysed. The main source of information are
data provided by the Ministry of Employment and Social Security, in
particular the Continuous Sample of Working History (MCVL).
This is a new approach, with the focus being on public economics rather
than on legal aspects and use of the MCVL data which, for the first
time, includes measurements related to the CDM.
The main objectives of this study are: 1) to estimate the impact that
the CDM has had on the pension system during the first year of
application; 2) to analyse the differences in treatment it generates;
and, 3) to assess its distributional effects on the gender gap in
pensions and on inequality among women. The study finishes with an
analysis of other equality policies and puts forward the main
conclusions reached and proposals for alternative measures.
The results show that the CDM has affected 58.4\% of new female
pensioners. The women who have benefitted most from this measure are
those who receive a widow's pension (50.9\%), followed by retirement
pension (39.8\%) and disability pension (9.2\%). Their sociodemographic
characteristics show that 53.4\% of the supplement is paid to mothers
with 2 children, while women not receiving CDM tend to have higher
educational levels than those who are in receipt of the supplement. It
also shows that self-employed workers tend to have more than one child
and, therefore, receive the CDM in a greater proportion (62.5\%) than
employed workers (57.5\%). The estimated cost of this measure amounted
to 64 million euros in 2016 (approximately 0.05\% of the expenditure on
contributory pensions), a figure that will increase considerably as the
supplement is extended to future female pensioners.
Among the main criticisms highlighted by this study is the difference in
treatment this measure generates. It purports to be a measure which
acknowledges the value of motherhood yet it discriminates against many
mothers by excluding women who were pensioners before 2016 and who are
the most affected, historically, by more unfavourable family and work
structures. In addition, other categories excluded are mothers with only
one child, women who took voluntary retirement, women who receive
non-contributory pensions and women who do not receive any pension.
Finally, the measure works against the principle of equality between men
and women, promulgated by the European Union, because it discriminates
against fathers.
Another criticism is that the amount of the CDM increases as the pension
rises and continues to be paid even when the maximum pension is reached.
This means that those women with higher pensions benefit more from the
supplement, which is contrary to measures applied in other countries.
One suggestion to improve the equality of this measure is that the
supplement should have an upper limit.
Furthermore, its effect on reducing inequality has been insignificant.
As a measure of equality between men and women, the CDM has reduced the
gender gap between new pensioners (2.2\%) but its effect on the whole
system is very poor (0.22\%). The pension gap between men and women in
Spain is still very wide at a rate of 29.3\% and much more work needs to
be done to reduce this gap.
Finally, a pension system that gives women greater rights for raising
children can reinforce traditional roles, discouraging mothers from
entering the formal labour market and fathers from taking a break from
their professional careers. This is why these measures are being
questioned by the Court of Justice of the European Union in terms of
equal treatment between mothers and fathers.
The CDM does not address the causes of the problem of gender
discrimination. It does not address discrimination in employment nor
does it offer the support required in the workplace for reconciling
maternity and paternity leave. It is ineffective as a stimulus to change
labour behaviour of women because its effect is in the long term and it
is an outdated measure that can be counterproductive.
In light of these problems, the priority for the government would be to
establish authentic equality policies which create opportunities for
both men and women to develop their full potential. 1) labour market
policies that eliminate gender differences (access to employment, wages
and job promotion at work), improving the flexibility and the rationale
of the working day, and 2) reconciliation policies related to family and
work life, aimed at all workers, that recognise fathers and mothers as
having co-responsibility for childcare.
The following measures are proposed to reduce the gender gap in
pensions:
a) Replace the current CDM with an additional contribution period per
child or a fixed amount supplement, in recognition of the period of time
dedicated to bringing up children.
If contribution years were added for accessing the pension, the number
of women with contributory pensions would increase. To avoid the same
negative aspects already highlighted, it should be implemented in a way
that covers all kind of pensions and gives greater support to mothers of
children with disabilities.
b) Improve non-contributory (universal) pensions, which are those of
lesser value. This measure would increase the number of women with
pensions in their own right, thereby reducing the coverage gap and the
pension gap of the total population (including non-pensioners). This
extension is vital to stop the pension system being a welfare system
(low coverage) and being outdated and out of touch (excessively linked
to family relationships).
Our further studies will be centred on these proposals with data
provided by the MCVL in future years.},

Abstract = {This paper examines gender as a constitutive element of inequality
regimes in the workplace. The organizational logic of workplace is
reproduced through accepted but unequal policies and principles. The
organizational dynamics of the gendered workplace are embedded in the
articulation of global and local markets. The article elaborates on the
nature of the organizational logic by focusing on the local dynamics of
a Central Anatolian city, Corum, based on a case study conducted in
Turkey. We observe how capitalist organizational logic and gender
subtext operate in and through the conservative culture specific to this
locality. Through the interactions between employers and employees, the
engagement between the capitalist organization and gender subtext
constructs the realities of workplace. Workers' responses to the
structural, cultural, interactional and identity dynamics of the
organization are to be understood within the triangle of skill, care and
honour in capitalist organizational logic. Embedded in all these
responses is a specific emphasis on virtuous female worker. Such an
ideal worker fits both the capitalist organizational logic and
patriarchal system.},

Year = {2021},
Volume = {15},
Number = {1, SI},

Month = {MAR 29},
Abstract = {Purpose - The COVID-19 pandemic has engendered changes in previously
unimaginable timeframes, leading to new ways of working, which can
quickly become the ``ordinary{''} way of working. Many traditional
workplace and educational practices and environments, however, are
disadvantageous to people with disability and consequently are
under-represented in the workforce and higher education.
Design/methodology/approach - Contributing factors include exclusionary
societal and employer attitudes and inaccessible built environments
including lack of attention to paths of travel, amenities, acoustics,
lighting and temperature. Social exclusion resulting from lack of access
to meaningful work is also problematic. COVID-19 has accelerated the
incidence of working and studying from home, but the home environment of
many people with disability may not be suitable in terms of space,
privacy, technology access and connection to the wider community.
Findings - However, remote and flexible working arrangements may hold
opportunities for enhancing work participation of people with
disabilities. Instigating systemic conditions that will empower people
with disability to take full advantage of ordinary working trajectories
is key. As the current global experiment in modified work and study
practices has shown, structural, organisational and design norms need to
change. The future of work and study is almost certainly more work and
study from home. An expanded understanding of people with disabilities
lived experience of the built environment encompassing opportunities for
work, study and socialisation from home and the neighbourhood would more
closely align with the UNCRPD's emphasis on full citizenship.
Originality/value - This paper examines what is currently missing in the
development of a distributed work and study place continuum that
includes traditional workplaces and campuses, local neighbourhood hubs
and homes.},

Title = {Personal factors influence use of cervical cancer screening services:
epidemiological survey and linked administrative data address the
limitations of previous research},
Journal = {BMC HEALTH SERVICES RESEARCH},
Year = {2012},
Volume = {12},
Month = {FEB 14},
Abstract = {Background: National screening programs have reduced cervical cancer
mortality; however participation in these programs varies according to
women's personal and social characteristics. Research into these
inequalities has been limited by reliance on self-reported service use
data that is potentially biased, or administrative data that lacks
personal detail. We address these limitations and extend existing
research by examining rates and correlates of cervical screening in a
large epidemiological survey with linked administrative data.
Methods: The cross-sectional sample included 1685 women aged 44-48 and
64-68 years from the Australian Capital Territory and Queanbeyan,
Australia. Relative risk was assessed by logistic regression models and
summary Population Attributable Risk (PAR) was used to quantify the
effect of inequalities on rates of cervical cancer screening.
Results: Overall, 60.5\% of women participated in screening over the
two-year period recommended by Australian guidelines. Screening
participation was associated with having children, moderate or high use
of health services, employment, reported lifetime history of drug use,
and better physical functioning. Conversely, rates of cervical screening
were lower amongst women who were older, reliant on welfare, obese,
current smokers, reported childhood sexual abuse, and those with anxiety
symptoms. A summary PAR showed that effective targeting of women with
readily observable risk-factors (no children, no partner, receiving
income support payments, not working, obese, current smoker, anxiety,
poor physical health, and low overall health service use) could
potentially reduce overall non-participation in screening by 74\%.
Conclusions: This study illustrates a valuable method for investigating
the personal determinants of health service use by combining
representative survey data with linked administrative records. Reliable
knowledge about the characteristics that predict uptake of cervical
cancer screening services will inform targeted health promotion efforts.},

Journal = {ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE \& POLICY},
Year = {2019},
Volume = {99},

Abstract = {Despite increasing attention to the role that multiple sets of
knowledge, including citizen-based knowledge, have in developing more
resilient and sustainable pathways for flood management, informal
knowledge systems have yet to gain legitimacy and be integrated into
formal planning and decision-making process. Here we show that a
knowledge systems lens can bring to the fore the prospects and barriers
to align different knowledge systems for urban resilience. Focusing on
two communities in San Juan, Puerto Rico, we use knowledge systems
analysis to identify, analyze, and compare the elements and functions of
formal and citizen knowledge systems coming to bear on urban flood
management. We found key aspects of these knowledge systems that deserve
attention to overcome integration barriers, including different frames
about how stormwater and riverine flood systems work, a fragmented and
unclear formal knowledge system for stormwater management, and a focus
on short-term approaches that limit anticipatory capacities in both
community and governance. We discuss how citizen knowledge systems have
a more nuanced and granular understanding of riverine and stormwater
flood dynamics and the opportunities that exist to integrate knowledge
systems through co-production, citizen science, and other governance
interventions. As officials and citizens continue to learn from
experiences with extreme events like Hurricane Maria, a goal of
knowledge integration interventions should be the transformation of our
knowledge infrastructures to build climate resilience in more just and
sustainable ways.},

Abstract = {Background Women across the world are mistreated during childbirth. We
aimed to develop and implement evidence-informed, validated tools to
measure mistreatment during childbirth, and report results from a
cross-sectional study in four low-income and middle-income countries.
Methods We prospectively recruited women aged at least 15 years in
twelve health facilities (three per country) in Ghana, Guinea, Myanmar,
and Nigeria between Sept 19, 2016, and Jan 18, 2018. Continuous
observations of labour and childbirth were done from admission up to 2 h
post partum. Surveys were administered by interviewers in the community
to women up to 8 weeks post partum. Labour observations were not done in
Myanmar. Data were collected on sociodemographics, obstetric history,
and experiences of mistreatment.
Findings 2016 labour observations and 2672 surveys were done. 838
(41.6\%) of 2016 observed women and 945 (35.4\%) of 2672 surveyed women
experienced physical or verbal abuse, or stigma or discrimination.
Physical and verbal abuse peaked 30 min before birth until 15 min after
birth (observation). Many women did not consent for episiotomy
(observation: 190 {[}75.1\%] of 253; survey: 295 {[}56.1\%] of 526) or
caesarean section (observation: 35 {[}13.4\%] of 261; survey: 52
{[}10.8\%] of 483), despite receiving these procedures. 133 (5.0\%) of
2672 women or their babies were detained in the facility because they
were unable to pay the bill (survey). Younger age (15-19 years) and lack
of education were the primary determinants of mistreatment (survey). For
example, younger women with no education (odds ratio {[}OR] 3.6, 95\% CI
1 .6-8.0) and younger women with some education (OR 1.6, 1.1-2.3) were
more likely to experience verbal abuse, compared with older women (>= 30
years), adjusting for marital status and parity.
Interpretation More than a third of women experienced mistreatment and
were particularly vulnerable around the time of birth. Women who were
younger and less educated were most at risk, suggesting inequalities in
how women are treated during childbirth. Understanding drivers and
structural dimensions of mistreatment, including gender and social
inequalities, is essential to ensure that interventions adequately
account for the broader context. Copyright (C) 2019 This is an Open

provision for migrants at Schengen border},
Journal = {INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL FOR EQUITY IN HEALTH},
Year = {2019},
Volume = {18},
Month = {JUL 29},
Abstract = {BackgroundCroatia and Slovenia were the transit countries on the Balkan
route for migrants and refugees from Middle East countries in 2015 and
2016. They had to optimize health care delivery in the special
circumstances in refugee camps and transit centres. Little is known
about health care provision in border camps where a large number of
migrants stay for only couple of hours. Previous studies emphasize that
language barriers and cultural differences play a central part in the
relationship between health workers and migrants inside the transit
zone. The aim of the study was to identify specific characteristics of
health care provision experienced by primary healthcare providers in
order to prepare solutions on how to organise health care in refugee
settings.MethodsTwelve thematic interviews were conducted in the middle
of the most intense migration movements to the North-West Europe between
November and December 2015 with health workers from Croatia and
Slovenia. Interview transcripts were read, coded, reviewed, and
labelled. We used qualitative content analysis.ResultsFour themes about
the health service provision for refugees at Schengen border were
identified. The circumstance when mutual understanding is poor and the
consultation not successful, cultural differences represent a central
barrier. Participants highlighted that the importance of respecting
human dignity is crucial for the provision of basic medical care for
migrants in transit.ConclusionSuccessful overcoming language barriers,
respecting cultural differences, humanity, susceptibility to social
deprivation and traumatic experiences are the key factors important for
organisation of health care in transit centers and camps. This article
gives some useful tips for healthcare workers and policy makers who are
participating in health services provision for migrants and other
refugees. Health workers should be prepared to work in special working
conditions with a lack of resources. Their work would require timely
planning and reflection on the organization of more transit camps.Trial

support women employment},
Journal = {JOURNAL OF TRANSPORT GEOGRAPHY},
Year = {2019},
Volume = {77},
Pages = {126-138},
Month = {MAY},
Abstract = {Saudi Arabian women traditionally have been dependent on male relatives,
hired drivers, or private transportation to get to work as they were not
permitted to drive until June 2018. Some believe this has created a
barrier for those women who wanted to enter the workforce. This research
was conducted to determine whether accessibility (cost and time) for
different types of transport has a relationship with women's opportunity
to work. The unemployment rate for Saudi women in 2016 was nearly six
times that of Saudi men. Qualitative evidence suggests the high cost of
private transportation is a limiting factor for women working in Riyadh
(Bashraheel, 2009; Jiffry, 2012). However, studies have yet to quantify
the relationship between the location of employment, the job
participation rate, and commute costs. By using a commuter accessibility
model based on the financial cost of commuting for four female
employment sectors manufacturing, retail, healthcare, and education this
research sets out to test the relationship between commute costs and
employment for Riyadh women. The study, which provides the first
comparative commute cost maps for Riyadh, looks at commute costs for
driving alone, private drivers, street-hailed and app-based taxi
services, and the new Metro system. The results show that when commute
costs increase, employment among women decreases. This means that
reducing commute costs, perhaps by allowing women to drive themselves to
work, increases the opportunity for women to work. The research also
showed that manufacturing is the least accessible sector for women and
would benefit from new forms of transit such as car-pooling.},

nationwide study},
Journal = {INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF MIGRATION HEALTH AND SOCIAL CARE},
Year = {2019},
Volume = {16},
Number = {1},
Pages = {108-118},
Month = {DEC 19},
Abstract = {Purpose As long as migration is recognized as a public health concern,
policies exist to address migrants' health, and provide comprehensive
information on how public and private health care system operates,
health rights and what their health care plan does or does not cover.
Thereby, responding to patients' expectations significantly affects
overall satisfaction with health care services because this dimension is
most strongly associated with patient satisfaction. The purpose of this
paper is to constitute the first quantitative large-scale study
(n=1,512) in Cyprus and Greece exploring the level of satisfaction among
third-country nationals (TCN) in relation to their health care needs.
Design/methodology/approach The questionnaire used in this study has
been developed and measured (Cronbach alpha =0.7) in a similar study in
Greece (Galanis et al., 2013) and it has been used by other studies too
(Vozikis, 2015). Findings The authors can conclude that participants'
knowledge of the health system is not good as 70.2 percent that they do
not have a good knowledge. The findings suggest that nearly one in two
TCN faced problems in accessing clinics or communicating due to various
factors. Practical implications - The findings of this study provide the
context for further exploration of different means to improve cultural
awareness amongst health and social care professionals, including
multicultural training of health and social service providers and
medical pluralist approaches that may be closer to migrants' cultural
and health background. Overall, types of interventions to improve
cultural competency included training/workshops/programs for health
practitioners (e.g. doctors, nurses and community health workers),
culturally specific/tailored education or programs for patients/clients,
interpreter services, peer education, patient navigators and exchange
programs (Truong, 2014). To the above, practices can also be added as
multicultural education to all health professionals in order to develop
enthusiasm and be able to acknowledge immigrants' difficulties. Adding
to the above recommendation, interdisciplinary education with allied
health professionals (psychologists, social workers and nurses) may lead
to a more holistic approach of this group's needs, especially in the
forthcoming health system where primary care will play a vital role.
Social implications Access to the health system may lead to social
inclusion of TCN in the local society and improve their quality of life.
It is also important for TCN to feel that the current health system is
aware of issues related to their social and cultural background; thus,
it will make the health system and those who work look more friendly and
approachable. Originality/value In an era of crisis and of great debate
around a forthcoming National Health System, these findings indicate
that healthcare providers in Cyprus will need to address several
challenges in managing care for migrants. In order for that to happen,
assessing patient satisfaction is thereby important in the process of
quality evaluation, especially when dealing with population subgroups at
higher risk of inequalities such as immigrants or ethnic minorities.
Such studies help systems to develop by measuring their weaknesses and
enhancing their strengths. Voicing clients/patients feedback is always
helpful to minimize risks.},

Abstract = {Sightsavers is an international organisation working with partners in
over 30 countries to eliminate avoidable blindness and help people with
disabilities participate more fully in society. In the context of its
Urban Eye Health Programme in Bhopal (India), the organisation launched
a pilot approach aimed at developing an Inclusive Eye Health (IEH) model
and IEH Minimum Standards. Accessibility audits were conducted in a
tertiary eye hospital and four primary vision centres located within
urban slums, addressing the accessibility of physical infrastructures,
communication and service provision. The collection and analysis of
disaggregated data inform the inclusion strategy and provide a baseline
to measure the impact of service provision. Trainings of eye health
staff and sensitisation of decision makers on accessibility, Universal
Design, disability and gender inclusion are organised on a regular
basis. A referral network is being built to ensure participation of
women, people with disabilities and other marginalised groups, explore
barriers at demand level, and guarantee wider access to eye care in the
community. Finally, advocacy interventions will be developed to raise
awareness in the community and mainstream disability and gender
inclusion within the public health sector. Founded on principles of
Universal Design, accessibility and participation, and in line with
international human rights treaties, Agenda 2030 and the Sustainable
Development Goals (SDGs), Sightsavers' IEH model ultimately aims to
develop a sustainable, scalable and universally accessible
system-strengthening approach, capable of ensuring more inclusive
services to people with disabilities, women and other marginalised
groups, and designed to more effectively meet the health needs of the
entire population.},

Title = {Enhanced Recovery After Surgery implementation in practice: an
ethnographic study of services for hip and knee replacement},
Journal = {BMJ OPEN},
Year = {2019},
Volume = {9},
Number = {3},
Month = {JUN},
Abstract = {Objectives Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) programmes aim to
improve care quality by optimising components of the care pathway and
programmes for hip and knee replacement exist across the UK. However,
there is variation in delivery and outcomes. This study aims to
understand processes that influence implementation using the
Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research (CFIR) to inform the
design and delivery of services.
Design An ethnographic study using observations and interviews with
staff involved in service delivery. Data were analysed using a thematic
analysis, followed by an abductive approach whereby themes were mapped
onto the 31 constructs and 5 domains of the CFIR.
Setting Four hospital sites in the UK delivering ERAS services for hip
and knee replacement.
Participants 38 staff participated including orthopaedic surgeons,
nurses and physiotherapists.
Results Results showed 17 CFIR constructs influenced implementation in
all five domains. Within `intervention characteristics', participants
thought ERAS afforded advantages over alternative solutions and guidance
was adaptable. In the `outer setting', it was felt ERAS should be
tailored to patients and education used to empower them in their
recovery. However, there were concerns about postdischarge support and
tensions with primary care. Within the `inner setting', effective
multidisciplinary collaboration was achieved by transferring knowledge
about patients along the care pathway and multidisciplinary working
practices. ERAS was viewed as a `message' that had to be communicated
consistently. There were concerns about resources and high volumes of
patients. Staff access to information varied. At the domain
`characteristics of individuals', knowledge and beliefs impacted on
implementation. Within `process', involving opinion leaders in
development and `champions' who acted as a central point of contact,
helped to engage staff. Formal and informal feedback helped to develop
services.
Conclusions Findings demonstrate successful implementation involves
empowering patients to work towards recovery, providing postdischarge
support and promoting successful multidisciplinary team working.},

Europeanization and the fragmented and flexible regime of European
production},
Journal = {CAPITAL AND CLASS},
Year = {2021},
Volume = {45},
Number = {1, SI},
Pages = {71-91},
Month = {MAR},
Abstract = {In current debates on precarization in Europe, a transnational and more
class-based perspective is demanded. While fully supporting this
request, this article nevertheless notices that, often, when it comes to
the economic logic of current Europeanization, scholars have only taken
a one-sided look at financial capital and financialization. What is
needed is a deeper conceptual understanding of European labour and
production processes and how their transnational organization is
interwoven with both the European integration project and rising
precarization. In an inter-disciplinary approach, combining critical
political economy, economic and social geography, and the sociology of
work and industry, this article seeks to tackle the problem and develops
three main arguments. The first is that, long before the 2008ff. crisis,
a mode of Europeanization as multi-scalar competitive integration
developed, one that, basically, takes socio-spatial unevenness as a
competitive advantage. The second argument is that the backbone of this
competitive Europeanization mode is a transnationalized European regime
of fragmented and flexible production. This regime particularizes labour
and labour processes on all social scales, within and beyond
nation-states, by putting them in a competitive relation to each other.
The third argument is that due to permanent transnational restructuring
and technological (digital) modernization, no stable socio-spatial
division of labour within and among the European countries arises.
Instead, permanently changing forms of labour's social polarization
occur, a finding that questions classic ideas of social development
through economic and technological modernization. Precarization, defined
as the detachment of dependent labour working conditions from the means
of integrative social participation, hereby describes a specific
concentration of a nevertheless wider structural uncertainty that is
inherent to both the mode of European integration and the regime of
European production.},

Title = {Immigrant health care workers from developing countries in the US:
antecedents, consequences and institutional responses},
Journal = {EQUALITY DIVERSITY AND INCLUSION},
Year = {2022},
Volume = {41},
Number = {2},
Pages = {157-185},
Month = {MAR 18},
Abstract = {Purpose The aim of this paper is to present a conceptual model on
foreign-born health care workers from developing countries working in
the US. The model covers their motivations for migration, the
consequences in terms of the inequality and exclusion they may
experience and the role of institutional responses at micro-, macro- and
meso-level of intervention. Design/methodology/approach The paper is
based on: (1) in-depth review of key literature studies on the
foundation theories of international migration including sociology,
economics, anthropology, psychology and human resource management, (2)
analysis of theoretical approaches to medical migration across
disciplines, (3) analysis of the international and national documentary
sources of micro-, macro- and meso-level policies on migration and (4)
analysis of evidence on best practices, solutions and aspirational
changes across different levels of institutions. Findings (1) Migration
of international medical graduates (IMGs) from developing countries to
the US can be explained from a micro-, macro- and meso-level of
analysis. (2) IMGs who identify as racial/ethnic minorities may
experience unfair discrimination differently than their US-born
counterparts. (3) Although political/legislative remedies have had some
successes, proactive initiatives will be needed alongside enforcement
strategies to achieve equity and inclusion. (4) While diversity
management initiatives abound in organizations, those designed for the
benefit of IMGs from developing countries are rare. (5) Professional
identity groups and some nonprofits may challenge structural inequities,
but these have not yet achieved economies of scale. Research
limitations/implications Although it is well-documented in the US health
care literature how ethnic/racial minorities are unfairly disadvantaged
in work and career, the studies are rarely disaggregated according to
sub-groups (e.g. non-White IMGs and US-born MGs). The implication is
that Black IMG immigrants have been overlooked by the predominant
narratives of native-born, Black experiences. In placing the realities
of native-born Blacks on the entire Black population in America, data
have ignored and undermined the diverse histories, identities and
experiences of this heterogeneous group. Practical implications An
awareness of the challenges IMGs from developing countries face have
implications for managerial decisions regarding recruitment and
selection. Besides their medical qualifications, IMGs from developing
countries offer employers additional qualities that are critical to
success in health care delivery. Considering organizations traditionally
favor White immigrants from Northern and Southern Europe, IMGs from
developed countries migrate to the US under relatively easier
circumstances. It is important to balance the scale in the
decision-making process by including an evaluation of migration
antecedents in comprehensive selection criteria. Social implications The
unfair discrimination faced by IMGs who identify as racial/ethnic
minority are multilayered and will affect them in ways that are
different compared to their US-born counterparts. In effect, researchers
need to make this distinction in research on racial discrimination.
Since IMGs are not all uniformly impacted by unfair discrimination,
organization-wide audits should be in tune with issues that are of
concerns to IMGs who identify as racial/ethnic minorities.
Likewise, diversity management strategies should be more inclusive and
should not ignore the intersectionality of race/ethnicity, nationality,
country of qualification and gender.
Originality/value Immigrant health care workers from developing
countries are integral to the health care industry in the United States.
They make up a significant proportion of all workers in the health care
industry in the US. Although the literature is replete with studies on
immigrant health care workers as a whole, research has rarely focused on
immigrant health care workers from developing countries. The paper makes
a valuable contribution in drawing attention to this underappreciated
group, given their critical role in the ongoing pandemic and the need
for the US health industry to retain their services to remain viable in
the future.},

Abstract = {Objective: to describe and understand the strengths, fears, perceptions
and barriers that arise in the process of work integration of persons
with disabilities in five autonomous regions of Spain. Methods:
qualitative study, addressed through techniques such as participant
observation, questionnaires and in-depth interviews, which to identify
the strengths, motivations and fears aroused the process of job
insertion for persons with disabilities assigned to a work program
inclusion. And to publicize the perception of employers and job coaches
on this process, and uncover the barriers to must overcome people with
disabilities to obtain a job. The sample consisted of 161 people, of who
80 belonged to the group of persons with disabilities, 70 entrepreneurs
and 11 job coaches. Results: through the study, people with disabilities
or functional diversity strengthened labor and personal competencies,
which allowed them an ostensibly improvement in the possibility of
employability. In spite of this, the result was of 0.01 of employability
of the collective in mention. Conclusions: it is complex to approach and
give concrete solutions to the process of labor insertion of people with
disabilities, despite the existence of European and Spanish policies
that stimulate and encourage both public and private companies to hire
these people. It was also pointed out that in exchange for employing
this group, companies prefer to buy products made by people working in
the Special Employment Centers, possibly because of the lack of
knowledge about the labor inclusion process of this group and, moreover,
the constant presence of Actions and attitudes of discrimination towards
this population.},

Abstract = {The main aim of this study is to measure and evaluate the participation
of aged people in the labour market in Italy based on the AAI and to
identify determinants. We used Istat data from official surveys
harmonized at European level or based on samples which are
representative at national and subnational level. In Italy the increase
in retirement age and discouragement of early retirement have determined
deep changes in the age composition of the Italian workforce, with
employment rate of aged workers increased considerably. Considering the
multifaceted nature of active ageing, we used Principle Components
Analysis to identify the main factors that contribute to strengthening
the employability of aged people. 18 related AAI indicators were
considered and specific attention has been devoted also to
macro-economic indicators such as investments, availability of
infrastructures, etc. that could contribute to regional imbalances. The
analysis shows that the variability of regional employment rate can be
explained by the two ACP factors individuated: territory characteristics
and individual well-being. Regression analysis (10 regression models
were developed for panel data and random effects all controlled for ages
55-64 years and over 65 s) has provided clear indications on the
determinants: the first factor seems to have more influence on the
employment rate in the case of over 65s while the second factor has a
greater influence for workers aged 55-64.},

Number = {10},
Pages = {1376-1398},
Month = {OCT 3},
Abstract = {Much scholarship has stressed the need for conservation initiatives to
consider local livelihood realities in order to effectively manage
marine ecosystems; however, the gendered implications of marine
conservation often remain overlooked. This paper takes a feminist
political ecology approach to examine intersectional resistance to
conservation policies in one of Indonesia's largest and most populous
marine protected areas (MPAs), Wakatobi National Park. We show that
current Park policies and management fail to account for the livelihoods
and culture of local ethnic minority fishers. In response, and along
lines of gender, ethnicity, and class, ethnic minority fishers resist
conservation measures in novel ways. Justified by their moral economy,
these include continuing to access natural resources surreptitiously,
allying with each other, and critiquing authorities. While many
fisherwomen face additional barriers due to local cultural gender norms,
they resist by pursuing livelihood activities against their husband's
wishes. A key mechanism for this gendered resistance is increased
mobility for women, achieved through their clever use of new
infrastructure. Concurrently, Park authorities work to regain control
through `creative enforcement' by accepting bribes, intimidating locals,
and wasting fishers' time - techniques that further expose class,
ethnic, and gendered frictions. Overall, we find that MPA residents use
resources differently across intersectional lines and reveal the extent
to which everyday resistance can undermine conservation efforts if
regulations ignore local needs. We thus stress the need for an
intersectional and multi-scalar approach that is contextualized within
local communities and wider infrastructures to improve marine
conservation research and policy.},

Title = {FEDERAL REPUBLIC OF SOMALILAND},
Journal = {AFRICAN DISABILITY RIGHTS YEARBOOK},
Year = {2022},
Volume = {10},
Pages = {202-228},
Abstract = {According to the World Bank (WB), the Federal Republic of Somalia
population is estimated in 2020 at a total of 15 893.13 inhabitants.
According to the 2020-2023 roadmap of the Ministry of the Promotion of
Women and Human Rights, the percentage of people with disabilities in
Somalia is over 15 per cent of the total population. The Federal
Republic of Somalia does not provide information on common forms of
disability; there are still no databases due to the lack of a census.
Somalia signed and ratified the United Nations Convention on the Rights
of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD) on 2 October 2018 and 6 August 2019
respectively. It did not sign and ratify the Optional Protocol, however.
The Federal Republic of Somalia has not submitted any report, although
it was due in September 2021. The reasons for the delay may be related
to the Covid-19 pandemic.
According to article 35 of the 2012 Constitution of Somalia,
international agreements apply directly in domestic courts, which is the
monist approach to international laws. The ratification of the CRPD
meant its incorporation into the legislation of Somalia; the Law N
degrees 134 creating the National Disability Agency (NDA) was
promulgated in December 2018 and the Disability Bill drafted in 2019.
The Constitution of Somalia contains provisions directly relating to
persons with disabilities. According article 11 there is an equality
between all citizens independently of their gender, religion (.)
disability. No person shall be discriminated against based on (.)
disability. In addition, the Constitution indirectly addresses
disabilities through its article 12 which states that it is the State's
responsibility to ensure that it does not violate rights through its
actions, and makes reasonable decisions to protect the rights of any
person from abuse by others. Furthermore, article 13 states that
everyone has the right to life, and article 27 provides for
socioeconomic rights such as a right to care. No one can be deprived of
urgent care whatever the reason, including the lack of economic means.
Somalia has numerous pieces of legislation that directly addresses
disability. The key ones are:
center dot Law 134 of 31 December 2018 creating the National Agency for
Persons with Disabilities which is `mandated under paragraph 5(2)(e) to
oversee the delivery of services, including social services for persons
with disabilities'.
center dot Article 2 of the Provisional Constitution sets out 14 grounds
of discrimination including disability.
center dot Article 27(5) recognises that persons with disabilities who
have long suffered from discrimination must have the necessary support
to realise their socio-economic rights.
center dot The Ministry of Women and Human Rights drafted a disability
law. This law is in its final phase of public consultation. Participants
in this consultation process included persons with disabilities,
representatives of civil society organisations and the Somali Bar
Association.
We did not find any case law in Somalia. However, the policies that
directly address persons with disabilities are: center dot Roadmap
2020-2023 - Persons with disabilities and disability rights in Somalia.
Following an audit on the implementation of a first roadmap, 2017-2019,
this programme develops new issues, not foreseen in the previous one.
center dot Development of a national social protection policy by the
Ministry of Labour and Social Affairs (18 July 2019). Its implementation
(17 September 2019) aimed at establishing an inclusive social protection
system that meets the needs of employable people with disabilities, to
combat poverty and social exclusion. Social service programmes are thus
planned and will consider existing policies, rights stipulated in the
Constitution and laws.
center dot Better protection and management of people with mental and
mental disabilities: a) In response to allegations of mistreatment of
these persons, the Government launches criminal investigations into the
private institutions in charge of these persons with disabilities. The
National Disability Agency will now be responsible for monitoring their
living conditions. b) Creation of a toll-free telephone number for
reporting abuse of persons with disabilities. c) Provision of legal
defense for persons with mental and mental disabilities, by the Penal
Code.
Other than ordinary courts or tribunals, the Federal Republic of Somalia
has an official body that specifically addresses the violation of the
rights of persons with disabilities; the National Disability Agency
whose role is to file a criminal complaint against any public and
private entity that violates the rights of people with disabilities.
Somalia has a National Human Rights Commission (NHRC). Its mandate
includes the protection of disability rights. The NHRC has a broad
mandate that includes monitoring the human rights situation in Somalia,
investigating human rights violations, including torture or cruel,
inhuman, or degrading treatment or punishment, and an advisory mission
to the Government on the integration of human rights into legislation
and policies. There are numerous organisations that represent and
advocate for the rights and welfare of persons with disabilities in
Somalia. These include Somali Union for the Blind (SUB), Somali
Disability Empowerment Organization (SODEN), SAFDI Somalia Association
Female Disability, Somali Women Development Centre (SWDC), Somali
National Association for the Deaf (SONAD). These organisations
contribute to the promotion of disability rights through
awareness-raising. To improve their efficiency, they need to organise
themselves in a national federation and improve their capacity through
training including on disability and financial subventions. In the
Federal Republic of Somalia, the Ministry of the Promotion of Women and
Human Rights is initiated a comprehensive process to allow Somalia to
overcome its delay in reporting to conventional bodies, due to the
country's protracted civil war. The Ministry for the Promotion of Women
and Human Rights and other line ministries are working on comprehensive
legislation and policies for the protection of people with mental
disabilities. The NDA (Law 134 of 31 December 2018) is responsible for
removing barriers faced by persons with disabilities, holding the
Government accountable for the protection of the rights of persons with
disabilities, and ensuring the effective participation of persons with
disabilities in all aspects of society; notably in the areas of
governance and development.
People with mental disabilities are very often victims of ill-treatment
in private and public institutions. In view of the increasing number of
allegations of ill-treatment, the State has launched criminal
investigations against these institutions. The NDA is now responsible
for monitoring the living conditions of these people with disabilities.
In addition, a free telephone number has been created to report any
mistreatment against them. Finally, persons with a mental disability now
have a specific legal defense under the Criminal Code. A person who
`does not possess the capacity for understanding and willpower' at the
time of the commission of an offence should not be punished for an act
constituting a crime. As a result, these individuals are not detained
for offences committed because they are not found guilty. Although there
are some good laws to foster disability rights, it is imperative that
they are implemented if they are to make a difference in the protection
of disability rights. A special attention should be called for women,
girls, children as well as elderly people with disabilities. Moreover,
the Federal Republic of Somalia has a duty to carry out a census of its
population in general and of the population with disabilities in order
to obtain precise data broken down by age, sex, region, and category of
disability.},

Title = {Food supplementation for improving the physical and psychosocial health
of socio-economically disadvantaged children aged three months to five
years (Review)},
Journal = {COCHRANE DATABASE OF SYSTEMATIC REVIEWS},
Year = {2015},
Number = {3},
Abstract = {Background
Undernutrition contributes to five million deaths of children under five
each year. Furthermore, throughout the life cycle, undernutrition
contributes to increased risk of infection, poor cognitive functioning,
chronic disease, and mortality. It is thus important for decision-makers
to have evidence about the effectiveness of nutrition interventions for
young children.
Objectives
Primary objective
1. To assess the effectiveness of supplementary feeding interventions,
alone or with co-intervention, for improving the physical and
psychosocial health of disadvantaged children aged three months to five
years.
Secondary objectives
1. To assess the potential of such programmes to reduce socio-economic
inequalities in undernutrition.
2. To evaluate implementation and to understand how this may impact on
outcomes.
3. To determine whether there are any adverse effects of supplementary
feeding.
Search methods
We searched CENTRAL, Ovid MEDLINE, PsycINFO, and seven other databases
for all available years up to January 2014. We also searched
ClinicalTrials.gov and several sources of grey literature. In addition,
we searched the reference lists of relevant articles and reviews, and
asked experts in the area about ongoing and unpublished trials.
Selection criteria
Randomised controlled trials (RCTs), cluster-RCTs, controlled clinical
trials (CCTs), controlled before-and-after studies (CBAs), and
interrupted time series (ITS) that provided supplementary food (with or
without co-intervention) to children aged three months to five years,
from all countries. Adjunctive treatments, such as nutrition education,
were allowed. Controls had to be untreated.
Data collection and analysis
Two or more review authors independently reviewed searches, selected
studies for inclusion or exclusion, extracted data, and assessed risk of
bias. We conducted meta-analyses for continuous data using the mean
difference (MD) or the standardised mean difference (SMD) with a 95\%
confidence interval (CI), correcting for clustering if necessary. We
analysed studies from low-and middle-income countries and from
high-income countries separately, and RCTs separately from CBAs. We
conducted a process evaluation to understand which factors impact on
effectiveness.
Main results
We included 32 studies (21 RCTs and 11 CBAs); 26 of these (16 RCTs and
10 CBAs) were in meta-analyses. More than 50\% of the RCTs were judged
to have low risk of bias for random selection and incomplete outcome
assessment. We judged most RCTS to be unclear for allocation
concealment, blinding of outcome assessment, and selective outcome
reporting. Because children and parents knew that they were given food,
we judged blinding of participants and personnel to be at high risk for
all studies.
Growth. Supplementary feeding had positive effects on growth in
low-andmiddle-income countries. Meta-analysis of the RCTs showed that
supplemented children gained an average of 0.12 kg more than controls
over six months (95\% confidence interval (CI) 0.05 to 0.18, 9 trials,
1057 participants, moderate quality evidence). In the CBAs, the effect
was similar; 0.24 kg over a year (95\% CI 0.09 to 0.39, 1784
participants, very low quality evidence). In high-income countries, one
RCT found no difference in weight, but in a CBA with 116 Aboriginal
children in Australia, the effect on weight was 0.95 kg (95\% CI 0.58 to
1.33). For height, meta-analysis of nine RCTs revealed that supplemented
children grew an average of 0.27 cm more over six months than those who
were not supplemented (95\% CI 0.07 to 0.48, 1463 participants, moderate
quality evidence). Meta-analysis of seven CBAs showed no evidence of an
effect (mean difference (MD) 0.52 cm, 95\% CI -0.07 to 1.10, 7 trials,
1782 participants, very low quality evidence). Meta-analyses of the RCTs
demonstrated benefits for weight-for-age z-scores (WAZ) (MD 0.15, 95\%
CI 0.05 to 0.24, 8 trials, 1565 participants, moderate quality
evidence), and height-for-age z-scores (HAZ) (MD 0.15, 95\% CI 0.06 to
0.24, 9 trials, 4638 participants, moderate quality evidence), but not
for weight-for-height z-scores MD 0.10 (95\% CI -0.02 to 0.22, 7 trials,
4176 participants, moderate quality evidence). Meta-analyses of the CBAs
showed no effects on WAZ, HAZ, or WHZ (very low quality evidence). We
found moderate positive effects for haemoglobin (SMD 0.49, 95\% CI 0.07
to 0.91, 5 trials, 300 participants) in a meta-analysis of the RCTs.
Psychosocial outcomes. Eight RCTs in low-and middle-income countries
assessed psychosocial outcomes. Our meta-analysis of two studies showed
moderate positive effects of feeding on psychomotor development (SMD
0.41, 95\% CI 0.10 to 0.72, 178 participants). The evidence of effects
on cognitive development was sparse and mixed.
We found evidence of substantial leakage. When feeding was given at
home, children benefited from only 36\% of the energy in the supplement.
However, when the supplementary food was given in day cares or feeding
centres, there was less leakage; children took in 85\% of the energy
provided in the supplement. Supplementary food was generally more
effective for younger children (less than two years of age) and for
those who were poorer/less well-nourished. Results for sex were
equivocal. Our results also suggested that feeding programmes which were
given in day-care/feeding centres and those which provided a
moderate-to-high proportion of the recommended daily intake (\% RDI) for
energy were more effective.
Authors' conclusions
Feeding programmes for young children in low- and middle-income
countries can work, but good implementation is key.},

Abstract = {People with HIV are living longer. However, co-morbidities are often
more prevalent and severe than in the general population and have
greater impacts on health status. Although compelling evidence exists
about the health benefits of exercise in the HIV literature, many people
living with HIV tend to be physically inactive. The purpose of this
study was to use the Theoretical Domains Framework to investigate the
barriers and facilitators to participation in exercise of older people
living with HIV. This qualitative study involved in-depth,
semi-structured interviews with 12 adults aged 45 years and older
recruited from HIV organizations and health centres. Data were analyzed
thematically using the Theoretical Domains Framework, and two
investigators independently coded transcripts. Six prominent domains
were identified from the interviews: Social influences, environmental
context and resources, reinforcement, intentions, social and
professional role, and knowledge. Themes emerging from the interviews
fit into all 14 domains of the Theoretical Domains Framework, and 67\%
of themes fit into the six most prominent domains. The participants had
a working knowledge of exercise and its health benefits but were
unfamiliar with specific exercise parameters. The majority identified
environmental or resource constraints as salient barriers for
participation in exercise programmes. Co-morbidities, injuries, and the
side effects of HIV disease and medication were also acknowledged as
barriers. Stigma and discrimination from friends, family, people within
the LGBTQ community, and health care providers were commonly discussed.
Participants spoke of the importance of social support to facilitate
participation in exercise programmes. Other facilitators included using
technology and incorporating exercise into day-to-day activities. People
aging with HIV experience many barriers to exercise. Those designing
exercise interventions for people aging with HIV should incorporate
strategies to address these obstacles.},

Title = {Pre-pandemic planning survey of healthcare workers at a tertiary care
children's hospital: ethical and workforce issues},
Journal = {INFLUENZA AND OTHER RESPIRATORY VIRUSES},
Year = {2010},
Volume = {4},
Number = {4},
Pages = {213-222},
Month = {JUL},
Abstract = {Background
Prior to the development of written policies and procedures for pandemic
influenza, worker perceptions of ethical and workforce issues must be
identified.
Objective
To determine the relationship between healthcare worker (HCW) reporting
willingness to work during a pandemic and perception of job importance,
belief that one will be asked to work, and sense of professionalism and
to assess HCW's opinions regarding specific policy issues as well as
barriers and motivators to work during a pandemic.
Methods
A survey was conducted in HCWs at The Children's Hospital in Denver,
Colorado, from February to June 2007. Characteristics of workers
reporting willingness to work during a pandemic were compared with those
who were unwilling or unsure. Importance of barriers and motivators was
compared by gender and willingness to work.
Results
Sixty percent of respondents reported willingness to work (overall
response rate of 31\%). Belief one will be asked to work (OR 4 center
dot 6, P < 0 center dot 0001) and having a high level of professionalism
(OR 8 center dot 6, P < 0 center dot 0001) were associated with
reporting willingness to work. Hospital infrastructure support staffs
were less likely to report willingness to work during a pandemic than
clinical healthcare professionals (OR 0 center dot 39, P < 0 center dot
001). Concern for personal safety, concern for safety of family,
family's concern for safety, and childcare issues were all important
barriers to coming to work.
Conclusions
Educational programs should focus on professional responsibility and the
importance of staying home when ill. Targeted programs toward hospital
infrastructure support and patient and family support staff stressing
the essential nature of these jobs may improve willingness to work.},

Abstract = {As the configuration of the recent European political scene testifies,
there is an upward trend of the nationalistic and xenophobic atmosphere
within the EU societies, which is undoubtedly being reinforced in the
recent years, due to both the large refugee flows and the terrorist acts
occurring across Europe. Accordingly, the Gallup study of attitudes
toward immigration found people in Europe the most negative in the world
towards immigration. The majority of residents (52\%) said immigration
levels in their countries should be decreased. And all that while
migrants constitute the 4.6\% of the European population, a percentage
which could be `translated' into numbers as 20 million of migrants.
Consequently, the aforementioned situation invokes a matter of intricacy
in order for the NGOs and other organizations, who are dealing with the
issue of the integration of migrants and refugees, to work and emphasize
on the notions of global interdependencies and equality, with the
oversimplified argumentation occurs to be the wide range of resources
that strengthen the dominant narrative.
The innovative character of the project FATI (From Alienation to
Inclusion, https://www.projectfati.com) lies on the effective
collaboration of the project partners, who are seeking to create
activities by developing a unique on-line environment which contains
comprehensive training modules on social integration of migrants and
refugees into EU societies, while seeking to eliminate all those social,
linguistic and psychological barriers which prevent migrants and
refugees from being integrated in the new environment. Also, the
environment of the project is being endowed with a variety of other
pioneer digital tools and applications, specially designed for the
creation and establishment of a strong network amongst European NGOs,
social enterprises and charities for migrants and refugees, thus forming
strong alliances.
Accordingly, the ultimate aim of the project is to bring together such
organizations, thus adopting a more collective and therefore effective
action. Simultaneously, the e-platform involves the wider EU public,
mainly through the `Library of Commodities' which operates for the
purpose of provision of humanitarian aid, as the wider European public
gains the opportunity to offer its used objects to refugee settlements
located in the partner-countries. Additionally, through a `Directory of
European NGOs, social enterprises and charities for migrants and
refugees', being created as a part of the outputs of the project, a
strong network of such organizations emerges, therefore allowing their
actions to acquire global dimension, primarily by using volunteers and
services of other EU organizations located in other countries; such
operation is being considered the initial point for the development of a
mutual European policy on migrants and refugees.},

Abstract = {In Chile, between 450 and 500 cases of cancer are diagnosed annually in
children and adolescents. Treatment is financed by the state, but there
are non-financial elements that could condition ad-herence to treatment.
Objective: to explore family, socioeconomic, housing, and support
network risk factors that could affect adherence to medical treatment in
children and adolescents diagnosed with cancer. Patients and Method:
Descriptive observational study in pediatric oncology hospitals of a
national cancer program. Through a ``Social Care Form{''} applied to 104
caregivers of children and adolescents, between August 2019 and March
2020, socioeconomic data of children diagnosed with cancer were recorded
in four dimensions: i) Individual/family/health; ii)
Work/education/so-cioeconomic; iii) Housing/environment; and iv)
Participation/support networks. Results: 99\% of the children and
adolescents were registered in the public health system; 69\% belonged
to the lowest income brackets. Care for children and adolescents was
mainly provided by the mother (91\%). 79\% reported living in a house;
48\% owned or were paying for their home. Housing quality was described
as good (70\%), with low levels of overcrowding. 56\% of households had
access to Wi-Fi internet con-nection, while 27\% reported no access. The
main support network reported was the family (84\%). Conclusions:
Family, socioeconomic, housing, and support network risk factors were
observed in children and adolescents diagnosed with cancer;
socioeconomic and gender aspects highlight the social inequalities in
these families. Descriptive baseline results were obtained, so it is
suggested to re-observe its evolution and thus measure its impact on
adherence to treatment.},

Abstract = {The utilization of existing social networks is increasingly being
recognized as a powerful strategy for delivering healthcare services to
underserved populations in low- and middle-income countries. In
Guatemala, multiple barriers prevent access to healthcare services for
rural and indigenous populations, and strategies for delivering
healthcare in more efficient ways are needed. The case study we describe
here is a unique collaboration between a microfinance institution
(Friendship Bridge) and a primary care organization (Wuqu' Kawoq
vertical bar Maya Health Alliance) to scale up healthcare through an
existing lending-borrowing social network. The program provides primary
care services to female clients of Friendship Bridge in rural areas of
Guatemala, with nurses working as frontline primary care providers,
providing door-to-door healthcare services. Over the first 22 months of
the project, we have reached over 3500 of Friendship Bridge's clients,
with overall high acceptance of services. All clinical documentation and
program monitoring and evaluation are done through audit trails within
an electronical medical record system, which improves efficiency and
lowers the associated time and resources costs. We utilize quality
improvement methodologies to aid in decision making and programmatic
adjustments scale up. These strategies have allowed us to expand
services rapidly under challenging geographic and logistical
constraints, while concurrently iteratively improving staff training and
supervision, clinical care, and client engagement processes.},

Volume = {19},
Number = {3, S},
Pages = {89-98},
Month = {OCT},
Abstract = {Despite high overall immunization coverage levels among U.S. preschool
children, areas of underimmunization, called pockets of need, remain.
These areas, which pose both a personal health and a public health risk,
are typically poor, crowded, urban areas in which barriers to
immunization are difficult to overcome and health care resources are
limited.
The purpose of this report is to review barriers to immunization of
preschool children living in pockets of need and to discuss current
issues in the identification of and implementation of interventions
within these areas.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention administers a federal
grants program that funds state and metropolitan immunization programs.
This program promotes a three-pronged approach for addressing pockets of
need: (1) identification of target areas, (2) selection and
implementation of programmatic strategies to improve immunization
coverage, and (3) evaluation of progress or impact. At each step,
scientific evidence can guide programmatic efforts.
While there is evidence that state and metropolitan immunization
programs are currently making efforts to address pockets of need, much
work remains to be done to improve. immunization coverage levels in
pockets of need. Public health agencies must take on a broadened role of
accountability, new partnerships must be forged, and it may be necessary
to strengthen the oversight authority of public health. These tasks will
require a concentration and redirection of resources to support the
development of an immunization delivery infrastructure capable of
ensuring the timely delivery of immunizations to the most vulnerable of
America's children.},

Abstract = {Purpose: The purpose of this two-part study was to provide input into a
strategy to improve employment opportunities for persons with
disabilities in Armenia. Background: Employment rates for persons with
disabilities in Armenia have been variously reported between eight and
21\%, much below the general employment rate of 82\%. Method: First, a
Participatory Action Research process led to the development of a 15
item self-report measure - the Perceived Barriers to Employing Persons
with Disabilities Scale - which was administered to 158 employers.
Second, respondent data were examined to determine psychometric
properties of the scale and to inform strategic recommendations for
policy development. Findings: Exploratory factor analysis resulted in
the removal of 6 items, leaving a 9 item scale. Responses produced a
multidimensional scale clustering around 2 factors. The first of these,
structural issues, was principally informed by employer perceptions of
limited skill levels of persons with disabilities, high costs associated
with employing persons with disabilities, and the lack of accessibility
within facilities. The second factor, social issues, was informed by
employers' anticipation of negative reactions of coworkers, customers
and supervisors toward persons with disabilities entering the workforce.
Employers also indicated a belief that persons with disabilities with
skills should be entitled to work. Discussion and Conclusion: Results of
this study suggest that attitudes of Armenian employers toward people
with disabilities, and subsequent hiring decisions, are partly informed
by perceptions of the negative reactions of others within the workplace.
This finding disagrees with studies from other jurisdictions, which
generally consider that these attitudes are principally informed by
perceived skills deficits on the part of people with disabilities. These
results would support the development of employer-focused information
and awareness campaigns designed to address both of these factors.},

Journal = {AFRICAN REVIEW OF ECONOMICS AND FINANCE-AREF},
Year = {2019},
Volume = {11},
Number = {2},
Pages = {38-66},
Month = {DEC},
Abstract = {The global concerted drive for financial inclusion (FI) as a solution
for poverty reduction (PR) is confronted by indications that a majority
of the target cite low incomes or poverty itself as a barrier to FI.
This is paradoxical as it implies that the FI drive could especially
leave the core-poor behind. This study offers a perspective on the
foundations of the expectations of the FI-PR drive and the possible
reasons for the paradox. The study then investigates the paradox from a
different, indirect and independent perspective. Models are estimated
for the FI-income and income-FI linkages using variables derived from a
2013 Malawi national household survey. The results indicate a
bi-directional positive FI-income relationship and a negative
poverty/low income-FI one implying support for the FI-PR push but also
supporting the poverty-FI barrier effect. Other unsettling but familiar
results indicate that the brunt of the FI-poverty imbalance is borne by
the obviously weaker segments of society because poverty itself is
associated with households that are larger, headed by those who are
females, older, and with lower educational levels. The major
implications of the present findings are dire in that the brokerage
approach to reduce poverty via FI would not be a reliable one for the
very low-income, the core-poor. These would need unconventional FI
interventions and improvements on the direct PR approaches including
addressing production and employment outcomes.},

Title = {A descriptive study of treatment provision for problem alcohol drinking
in adult males in Khayelitsha, Cape Town, South Africa},
Journal = {BMC HEALTH SERVICES RESEARCH},
Year = {2017},
Volume = {17},
Number = {2},
Abstract = {Poor, Black African males are underrepresented as patients in facilities
that treat problem drinking in Cape Town, South Africa. Reasons for this
remain unclear, but factors such as the kinds of treatment provided,
perceptions of treatment efficacy, social stigma and traditional
treatment beliefs have been suggested as possible barriers to treatment
seeking. This descriptive study examined the availability and nature of
problem drinking treatment facilities in Khayelitsha, a largely poor
township of Black, Xhosa-speaking Africans, on the outskirts of Cape
Town.
Seven treatment facilities for problem drinking in adult males were
identified using data from the Department of Social Development in the
City of Cape Town. Staff members were identified as key informants at
each of the treatment facilities, and were interviewed using a
structured questionnaire. Twelve interviews were conducted.
Findings indicated that the available alcohol treatment facilities were
relatively new, that treatment modalities varied both across and within
treatment facilities, and that treatment was provided largely by social
workers. Treatment facilities did not accommodate overnight stay for
patients, operated during weekday office hours, and commonly referred
patients to the same psychiatric hospital.
The study provides a baseline for assessing barriers to treatment for
problem drinking in Khayelitsha by highlighting the nature of available
facilities as playing a predominantly screening role with associated
social work services, and a point of referral for admission to a
psychiatric institution for treatment. The social and financial
implications of such referral are pertinent to the discussion of
treatment barriers.
Recommendations are made to inform policy towards locally-provided
integrated care to improve treatment provision and access.},

Title = {What Are the Challenges Related to Family Planning, Pregnancy, and
Parenthood Faced by Women in Orthopaedic Surgery? A Systematic Review},
Journal = {CLINICAL ORTHOPAEDICS AND RELATED RESEARCH},
Year = {2023},
Volume = {481},
Number = {7},
Pages = {1307-1318},
Month = {JUL},
Abstract = {BackgroundOrthopaedic surgery is the surgical specialty with the lowest
proportion of women. Conflicting evidence regarding the potential
challenges of pregnancy and parenthood in orthopaedics, such as the
implications of delayed childbearing, may be a barrier to recruitment
and retainment of women in orthopaedic surgery. A summary of studies is
needed to ensure that women who have or wish to have children during
their career in orthopaedic surgery are equipped with the relevant
information to make informed decisions.Questions/purposesIn this
systematic review, we asked: What are the key gender-related barriers
pertaining to (1) family planning, (2) pregnancy, and (3) parenthood
that women in orthopaedic surgery face?MethodsEmbase, MEDLINE, and
PsychINFO were searched on June 7, 2021, for studies related to
pregnancy or parenthood as a woman in orthopaedic surgery. Inclusion
criteria were studies in the English language and studies describing the
perceptions or experiences of attending surgeons, trainees, or program
directors. Studies that sampled surgical populations without specific
reference to orthopaedics were excluded. Quantitative and qualitative
analyses were performed to identify important themes. Seventeen articles
including surveys (13 studies), selective reviews (three studies), and
an environmental scan (one study) met the inclusion criteria. The
population sampled included 1691 attending surgeons, 864 trainees, and
391 program directors in the United States and United Kingdom. The Risk
of Bias Instrument for Cross-Sectional Surveys of Attitudes and
Practices tool was used to evaluate the risk of bias in survey studies.
A total of 2502 women and 560 men were sampled in 13 surveys addressing
various topics related to pregnancy, parenthood, and family planning
during an orthopaedic career. Three selective reviews provided
information on occupational hazards in the orthopaedic work environment
during pregnancy, while one environmental scan outlined the
accessibility of parental leave policies at 160 residency programs. Many
of the survey studies did not report formal clarity, validity, or
reliability assessments, therefore increasing their risk of bias.
However, our analysis of the provided instruments as well as the
consistency of identified themes across multiple survey studies suggests
the evidence we aggregated was sufficiently robust to answer the
research questions posed in the current systematic review.ResultsThese
data revealed that many women have witnessed or experienced
discrimination related to pregnancy and parenthood, at times resulting
in a decision to delay family planning. In one study, childbearing was
reportedly delayed by 67\% of respondents (304 of 452) because of their
career choice in orthopaedics. Orthopaedic surgeons were more likely to
experience pregnancy complications (range 24\% to 31\%) than the
national mean in the United States (range 13\% to 17\%). Lastly, despite
these challenging conditions, there was often limited support for women
who had or wished to start a family during their orthopaedic surgery
career. Maternity and parental leave policies varied across training
institutions, and only 55\% (56 of 102) of training programs in the
United States offered parental leave beyond standard vacation
time.ConclusionThe potential negative effects of these challenges on the
orthopaedic gender gap can be mitigated by increasing the availability
and accessibility of information related to family planning, parental
leave, and return to clinical duties while working as a woman in
orthopaedic surgery.
Future research could seek to provide a more global perspective and
specifically explore regional variation in the environment faced by
pregnancy or parenting women in orthopaedic surgery.},

Title = {Gendered division of labour and feminisation of responsibilities in
Kenya; implications for development interventions},
Journal = {GENDER PLACE AND CULTURE},
Year = {2016},
Volume = {23},
Number = {10},
Pages = {1432-1449},
Abstract = {Analysing gender roles as a social organisation element of a community
is critical for understanding actors' rationales and agency with regard
to allocation and use of resources. This article discusses gender
relations and how they determine development outcomes, based on a
highland-lowland case-study of participants of Farmer Field Schools in
Kakamega Central Sub-County (highland) and Mbeere South Sub-County
(lowland). The gender relations at stake include the gendered division
of labour, gender roles and intra-household power relations as expressed
in access and control of resources and benefits and their implications
for agricultural development. The study used mixed methods, the Harvard
Analytical Framework of gender roles and draws on the Neo-Marxist
position on exploitation, categorisation and institutionalisation of
power relations, empowerment and the critical moments framework to
discuss the results. Results in both Sub-Counties show that patriarchy
prevails, determining institutional design, access and control of
resources and benefits. Social positions shape capabilities and
strategies of actors in decision-making and use of resources to justify
gender-specific institutional arrangements. In Kakamega, men get the
lion share of incomes from contracted sugarcane farming despite
overburdening workloads on women, while in Mbeere, both men and women
derive incomes from Khat (Catha Edulis) enterprises. However, women are
expected to spend their earnings on household expenditures, which were
hitherto responsibilities of men, thereby contributing to the
feminisation of responsibilities. Development policies and interventions
thus need to be based on an understanding of men and women's
differential access and control over resources and the institutions
underpinning men and women's bargaining power in order to adopt more
effective measures to reduce gender inequalities. ResumenAnalizar los
roles de genero como un elemento de organizacion social de una comunidad
es fundamental para comprender los fundamentos de las y los actores y su
agencia con respecto a la asignacion y uso de los recursos. Este
articulo analiza las relaciones de genero y como estas determinan los
resultados del desarrollo, basandose en un estudio de caso de
participantes de las tierras altas y bajas de Farmer Field Schools en el
subcondado Kakamega (tierras altas) y el subcondado de Mbeere (tierras
bajas). Las relaciones de genero en cuestion incluyen la division del
trabajo por genero, los roles de genero, las relaciones de poder
intra-hogar expresadas en el acceso y control de los recursos y los
beneficios y sus implicancias para el desarrollo agricola. El estudio
utiliza metodos mixtos, el Marco Analitico de Harvard sobre los roles de
genero y se basa en una postura neomarxista sobre la explotacion, la
categorizacion y la institucionalizacion de las relaciones de poder, el
empoderamiento y el marco analitico de momentos clave para analizar los
resultados. En ambos subcondados, los resultados muestran que prevalece
el patriarcado, determinando el diseno institucional, el acceso y
control de los recursos y beneficios. Las posiciones sociales dan forma
a las capacidades y las estrategias de los actores en la toma de
decisiones y uso de recursos para justificar los arreglos
institucionales especificos de genero.
En Kakamega, los hombres se quedan con la mayor parte de los ingresos
del cultivo contratado de la cana de azucar a pesar de la sobrecarga de
trabajo que hay sobre las mujeres, mientras que en Mbeere, tanto estas
como los varones obtienen ingresos de los emprendimientos del khat
(Catha edulis). Sin embargo, se espera que las mujeres utilicen sus
ingresos para gastos del hogar, los que solian ser responsabilidad de
los hombres, contribuyendo asi a la feminizacion de las
responsabilidades. Las politicas e intervenciones de desarrollo por lo
tanto necesitan basarse en un entendimiento del diferente acceso y
control de los recursos entre hombres y mujeres y de las instituciones
que apuntalan el poder de negociacion entre ambos para poder adoptar
medidas mas efectivas para reducir las desigualdades de genero.

Journal = {SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT},
Year = {2014},
Volume = {466},
Pages = {287-299},
Month = {JAN 1},
Abstract = {Climate changes, soil vulnerability, loss in biodiversity, and growing
human pressure are threatening Mediterranean-type ecosystems which are
increasingly considered as a desertification hotspot. In this region,
land vulnerability to desertification strongly depends on the interplay
between natural and anthropogenic factors. The present study proposes a
multivariate exploratory analysis of the relationship between the
spatial distribution of land vulnerability to desertification and the
socioeconomic contexts found in three geographical divisions of Italy
(north, center and south) based on statistical indicators. A total of
111 indicators describing different themes (demography, human
settlements, labor market and human capital, rural development, income
and wealth) were used to discriminate vulnerable from non-vulnerable
areas. The resulting socioeconomic profile of vulnerable areas in
northern and southern Italy diverged significantly, the importance of
demographic and economic indicators being higher in southern Italy than
in northern Italy. On the contrary, human settlement indicators were
found more important to discriminate vulnerable and non-vulnerable areas
in northern Italy, suggesting a role for pen-urbanization in shaping the
future vulnerable areas. An in-depth knowledge of the socioeconomic
characteristics of vulnerable land may contribute to scenarios' modeling
and the development of more effective policies to combat
desertification. (C) 2013 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.},

Title = {Encouragers and discouragers affecting medical graduates' choice of
regional and rural practice locations},
Journal = {RURAL AND REMOTE HEALTH},
Year = {2017},
Volume = {17},
Number = {4},
Abstract = {Introduction: Access to health care as near to where people live as
possible is desirable. However, not enough medical graduates choose to
work in rural and regional areas, especially in general practice. The
career decisions of recent medical graduates are known to be affected by
a variety of professional, societal and personal factors.
Internationally, medical programmes have exposed students to regional
and rural experiences partly to encourage them to seek employment in
these areas after graduation. As such, the Pukawakawa Programme is a
year-long regional and rural experience for selected Year 5 students
from the University of Auckland's Medical Programme in New Zealand in
partnership with the Northland District Health Board and two Primary
Health Organisations. A lack of clarity about the drivers of rural and
regional career decisions underpinned this study, which aimed to explore
the barriers and encouragers for students of the programme to return as
resident medical officers to the regional hospital where they had gained
clinical experience.
Methods: A mixed-method, descriptive design was used, including a short
survey, followed by participation in a focus-group discussion or a
one-on-one interview. Survey data were summarised in tabular form and
inductive, thematic analysis was applied to transcripts of focus groups
and interviews.
Results: Nineteen doctors in their first or second year following
graduation participated: 15 who had returned to the hospital where they
had clinical experience in the programme and four who were employed
elsewhere. `A match of personal goals and intended career intentions'
was the reason most frequently selected for junior doctors' choice of
early career employment. Other frequently selected reasons were
lifestyle, friends and family close by, and the reputation and
experience of the Pukawakawa Programme. Qualitative data revealed that
the learning experience, the unique design of the curriculum and
associated support from clinicians were identified as important factors
in encouraging students to work in regional and rural environments.
However, discouraging factors included separation from friends and
families, geographical isolation and the lack of opportunities for
partners to find work.
Conclusions: This study has confirmed the value of the Pukawakawa
Programme as an important contributor to the regional and rural
workforce of the Northland District, New Zealand. The value of an
academic-clinical partnership has been shown to support a regional and
rural clinical learning environment. Evidence is provided of one way of
having overcome barriers to building regional and rural workforce
capacity in this district.},

Abstract = {In Tamil Nadu, India, improvements have been made toward developing a
high-quality, universally accessible healthcare system. However, some
rural residents continue to confront significant barriers to obtaining
healthcare. The primary objective of this study was to investigate
self-reported morbidity, health literacy, and healthcare preferences,
utilization, and experiences in order to identify priority areas for
government health policies and programs. Drawing on 66 semi-structured
interviews and 300 household surveys (including 1693 individuals),
administered in 26 rural villages in Tamil Nadu's Krishnagiri district,
we found that the prevalence of self-reported major health conditions
was 22.3\%. There was a large burden of non-communicable and chronic
diseases, and the most common major morbidities were: connective tissue
problems (7.6\%), nervous system and sense organ diseases (5.0\%), and
circulatory and respiratory diseases (2.5\%). Increased age and
decreased education level were associated with higher odds of reporting
most diseases. Low health literacy levels resulted in individuals
seeking care only once pain interfered with daily activities. As such,
individuals' health-seeking behaviour depended on which strategy was
believed to result in the fastest return to work using the fewest
resources. Although government facilities were the most common
healthcare access point, they were mistrusted; 48.8\% and 19.2\% of
respondents perceived inappropriate treatment protocols and corruption,
respectively, at public facilities. Conversely, 93.3\% of respondents
reported high treatment cost as the main barrier to accessing private
facilities. Our results highlight that addressing the chronic and
non-communicable disease burdens amongst rural populations in this
context will require health policies and village-level programs that
address the low health literacy and the issues of rural healthcare
accessibility and acceptability. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

specialties and of all stages are caring for an increasing number of SGM
patients. Lack of education at all levels of training is identified as a
significant barrier to adequately caring for these populations, thereby
precipitating significant health disparities. Cultural competency is
often mistakenly attributed to a willingness to treat rather than the
provision of quality care. However, positive attitudes do not
necessarily correlate with trainee knowledge. Barriers to creating and
implementing culturally competent curricula are plentiful, yet
facilitating policies and resources are rare. While international bodies
continuously publish position statements and calls to action, concrete
change is seldom made. The scarcity of SGM curricula can be attributed
to the universal absence of formal acknowledgment of SGM health as a
required competency by accreditation boards and professional membership
associations. This commentary synthesizes hand-picked literature in an
attempt to inform healthcare professionals on their journey toward
developing culturally competent postgraduate medical education. By
thematically organizing evidence into a stepwise approach, the goal of
this article is to borrow ideas across medical and surgical specialties
to inform the creation of recommendations and make a case for an SGM
curriculum for EM programs in Canada.},

Title = {School-based obesity prevention for busy low-income
families-Organisational and personal barriers and facilitators to
implementation},
Journal = {PLOS ONE},
Year = {2019},
Volume = {14},
Number = {11},
Month = {NOV 5},
Abstract = {Background
Little research has targeted multiple-level barriers and facilitators in
school-based parental support programmes. This qualitative study aims to
describe barriers and facilitators, at organisational and personal
levels, that teachers and parents in disadvantaged settings in Sweden
perceived as influencing the implementation of the Healthy School Start
II (HSS II) intervention.
Methods
Data collection, analysis and interpretation were guided by the
Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research (CFIR). Focus groups
and interviews were conducted with 14 parents and ten teachers within
the HSS II trial. Data were analysed using qualitative content analysis
in a deductive step using the three CFIR domains-inner and outer
setting, and personal characteristics-followed by an inductive analysis.
Results
The theme `being on the same page-getting burdened teachers and parents
to work on common ground' was found. Among teachers, barriers and
facilitators were related to the structure of the schoolwork and
curriculum, involvement from other staff and school management, the
practical school workday, perception of high family needs but low
parental interest, insufficient resources in the families, and teacher's
personal knowledge, interests, and opinions about health and food. For
parents, barriers and facilitators were related to the perceived family
needs and resources, parents' health knowledge, consensus about healthy
behaviours and ability to cooperate, and school involvement in health
issues and the intervention.
Conclusion
Interventions should facilitate parents' and teachers' work on common
ground, with activities suitable for a stressful and burdensome workday
and everyday life. This could be achieved by integrating evidence-based
practices within school routines, and including activities that are
practicable despite parents' stressful lives, and that increase parental
consensus about promoting health. Strategies to increase involvement of
parents in families with high needs are necessary. Also, this study
suggests an expansion of the CFIR to capture the interface between
different micro-level organisations, and account for several
delivering/receiving organisations.},

five year forward view: a qualitative study},
Journal = {LONDON JOURNAL OF PRIMARY CARE},
Year = {2018},
Volume = {10},
Number = {3},
Pages = {54-58},
Abstract = {Background: The NHS is undergoing unprecedented change, central to which
is policy aimed at integrating health and social care services,
resulting in the implementation of new care models. GPs are at the
forefront of this change. However, there is lack of academic literature
on General Practitioners' perceptions on their role in light of the new
models of care proposed by the NHS Five Year Forward View which this
small-scale study begins to address.
Objectives: This study aims to produce a description of how GP's
construct their current and future general practice, professional status
and identify within the context of the current NHS transformation
agenda.
Methods: Qualitative study using semi-structured interviews and one
focus group to gather the perspective of GPs (n = 10) working across
three clinical commissioning groups in South East England.
Results: While the GPs embraced the principles underpinning the new care
models, they were both willing and reluctant to adopt their new roles,
struggled with inter-organisational and cultural barriers and their
changing professional identity.
Conclusion: Multi-professional education in primary and community care
could be an effective model to offer support and resources to the
development of the clinical and leadership skills GPs will require to
respond effectively to the transformation agenda. The emergence of
community education provider networks, innovative network organisations
designed to support workforce transformation through education and
training, can provide the vehicle through which clinical and leadership
skills training are sourced and coordinated.},

Journal = {FRONTIERS IN NUTRITION},
Year = {2023},
Volume = {10},
Month = {MAR 14},
Abstract = {IntroductionDespite the health benefits of breastfeeding for both the
mother and the child, early cessation of breastfeeding remains a public
health problem in South Africa, attributed to contextual barriers and
facilitators. Within the context of Mpumalanga province, which is
characterized by low breastfeeding rates and high infant mortality rates
in children under 5 years, we explored the facilitators and barriers to
breastfeeding among mothers attending the three primary health
facilities in Ermelo. MethodsUsing a semi-structured interview guide
suggested by the socio-ecological model, three focus group discussions
and 12 in-depth interviews were conducted among mothers selected using a
purposive sampling. Transcripts from audiotaped and transcribed verbatim
interviews were assessed through thematic analysis using NVivo version
10. ResultsMothers were aged between 18 and 42 years and from poor
sociodemographic backgrounds. At the individual level, mothers valued
breastfeeding facilitated by their commitment, maintaining it, eating
healthy foods, and having sufficient breast milk. However, returning to
work, insufficient breast milk, misconceptions about breastfeeding, and
interference with social life were the barriers for mothers to
breastfeed continuously. At the interpersonal level, the family was
identified as the main form of support to breastfeeding mothers;
however, family interference was also identified as a barrier. At the
community level, mothers shared some family beliefs and practices but
were still split between societal and cultural norms and traditional
beliefs as facilitators or barriers to breastfeeding. At the
organizational level, most mothers valued the support provided by
healthcare workers on childcare and techniques for breastfeeding at the
health facilities. They did however articulate concerns on the
miscommunication some healthcare workers offered regarding
breastfeeding, which negatively influenced their infant feeding
practices. DiscussionIntervention efforts should focus on behaviour
change to educate and equip mothers to overcome the barriers that are
within their control. Such interventions should further focus on
family-centered education and strengthening the proficiency of
healthcare workers on advising breastfeeding mothers.},

French EDEN mother-child cohort},
Journal = {INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF BEHAVIORAL NUTRITION AND PHYSICAL ACTIVITY},
Year = {2015},
Volume = {12},
Month = {SEP 24},
Abstract = {Background: The association between socioeconomic position and diet in
early childhood has mainly been addressed based on maternal education
and household income. We aimed to assess the influence of a variety of
social factors from different socio-ecological levels (parents,
household and child-care) on multi-time point dietary patterns
identified from 2 to 5 y.
Method: This study included 974 children from the French EDEN
mother-child cohort. Two multi-time point dietary patterns were derived
in a previous study: they correspond to consistent exposures to either
core-or non-core foods across 2, 3 and 5 y and were labelled
``Guidelines{''} and ``Processed, fast-foods{''}. The associations of
various social factors collected during pregnancy (age, education level)
or at 2-y follow-up (mother's single status, occupation, work
commitments, household financial disadvantage, presence of older
siblings and child-care arrangements) with each of the two dietary
patterns, were assessed by multivariable linear regression analysis.
Results: The adherence to a diet close to ``Guidelines{''} was
positively and independently associated with both maternal and paternal
education levels. The adherence to a diet consistently composed of
processed and fast-foods was essentially linked with maternal variables
(younger age and lower education level), household financial
disadvantage, the presence of older sibling (s) and being cared for at
home by someone other than the mother.
Conclusions: Multiple social factors operating at different levels
(parents, household, and child-care) were found to be associated with
the diet of young children. Different independent predictors were found
for each of the two longitudinal dietary patterns, suggesting distinct
pathways of influence. Our findings further suggest that interventions
promoting healthier dietary choices for young children should involve
both parents and take into account not only household financial
disadvantage but also maternal age, family size and options for
child-care.},

CENTRAL AND EASTERN EUROPEAN COUNTRIES},
Journal = {BALTIC JOURNAL OF ECONOMIC STUDIES},
Year = {2021},
Volume = {7},
Number = {2},
Pages = {233-239},
Abstract = {The article highlights the necessity of inclusive growth and development
concept implementation in times of economic and social instability as it
is widely recognized as the one that can and should tackle the common
long existing problems like poverty, inequality, and insecurity. Thus,
the subject of this research is to compare the patterns of inclusive
growth and development across economies of Central and Eastern Europe
(CEE); and to investigate the driving policies and institutions to
countries' inclusive growth and development. The research objective is
to highlight policies that would increase equality, economic well-being,
and as a result, the competitiveness of CEE countries. Methods. For this
purpose, the comparative analysis of CEE countries' inclusive growth and
development patterns was done; and the empirical evaluation was done to
observe relationship between the Inclusive Development Index and
indicators that described economic policies and institutional factors
relevant to inclusiveness. In a comparative analysis and a cross-country
regression model (for both dependent and independent variables), a
recently developed by World Economic Forum performance metric was used.
Results. The main findings suggest that the Czech and Slovak Republics
are the best performing among CEE countries in inclusive growth and
development patterns. On the contrary, Ukraine, Moldova, and Russian
Federation are the worst. Economic growth of these countries has not
transformed well into social inclusion. Still, there is a great
potential for all CEE economies to improve their social inclusiveness in
comparison with EU-28 and Norway (the most inclusive economy in 2018).
Results of the empirical research indicate that redistributive fiscal
policy has little influence on inclusive growth and development.
Nevertheless, it should create a public social protection system that is
engaged in decreasing poverty, vulnerability, and marginalization
without hampering economic growth. Besides, an effective and inclusive
redistributive state system of CEE economies should accentuate on
supporting human economic opportunities. According to the results of the
regression model, positive strong influence on inclusive growth and
development is associated with the employment and labour compensation
policy that allows people to directly increase their incomes and feel
active and productive members of society; the basic services and
infrastructure policy which is a necessary ground for present and future
human and economic development; the asset building and entrepreneurship
policy provides diminishing inequality and rising economic opportunities
by fostering medium and small business creation and enlarging
possibilities of home and other asset ownership. Altogether these
policies would increase broad-based human economic opportunities and
consequently both equality, economic well-being, and CEE economies'
competitiveness in the long run. The counter-intuitive effect observed
in the regression model between education and skills development policy
and country's inclusive growth and development needs further
investigations, as education is important for social mobility and
decrease in income and wealth inequality.},

Title = {Barriers to healthcare for Australian autistic adults},
Journal = {AUTISM},
Year = {2023},
Month = {2023 MAY 10},
Abstract = {Barriers to healthcare experienced by Australian autistic adults have
not been previously explored. We conducted a cross-sectional
investigation of barriers to healthcare and associated factors from a
subtle realism perspective. Perceived barriers to healthcare were
obtained from the Barriers to Healthcare Checklist Short-Form (BHC). A
total of 263 autistic and 70 non-autistic individuals completed the BHC.
On average, autistic adults reported more barriers to healthcare (4.58)
than non-autistic adults (0.76). Gender diversity, higher levels of
generalised anxiety, greater global disability and less satisfaction
with social support contributed to the experience of barriers to
healthcare in autistic participants in regression modelling. Australian
autistic adults face substantial barriers to healthcare. Understanding
these barriers provides an opportunity to develop approaches to improve
access; such as co-designing a healthcare access roadmap for autistic
adults, with co-designed policies and practices which advocate for the
needs of autistic adults. Lay abstract This study looked at how
Australian autistic and non-autistic adults experience barriers to
healthcare. We asked autistic and non-autistic adults to complete the
Barriers to Healthcare Checklist Short-Form (BHC). We analysed data from
263 autistic adults and 70 non-autistic adults. We found that autistic
adults experienced more barriers to healthcare than non-autistic adults.
Gender diversity, feeling more anxious, having greater disability and
feeling unsatisfied with social support contributed to barriers to
healthcare in autistic participants. We recommend interventions such as
developing and implementing a national action plan, similar to the
National Roadmap for Improving the Health of People with Intellectual
Disability (2021) to reduce barriers and address unmet healthcare needs
of Australian autistic adults. We also recommend working with autistic
adults to develop new policies and strategies, implementing
environmental adaptations to health care facilities, and increasing
Autism education opportunities for health professionals to address gaps
in knowledge.},

Volume = {20},

Pages = {3-12},
Month = {FEB},
Abstract = {Despite enormous advances in biomedical science, corresponding
improvements in health outcomes lag significantly. This is particularly
true in the United States, where life expectancy trails far behind that
of other high-income countries. In addition, substantial disparities in
life expectancy and other health outcomes exist as a function of race,
ethnicity, wealth, education, and geographic location. A major
reformation of our national system for generating medical evidence-the
clinical research enterprise-is needed to facilitate the translation of
biomedical research into useful products and interventions. Currently,
premarket systems for generating and evaluating evidence work reasonably
well, but the postmarket phase is disaggregated and often fails to
answer essential questions that must be addressed to provide optimal
clinical care and public health interventions for all Americans. Solving
these problems will require a focus on three key domains: (1) improving
the integration of and access to high-quality data from traditional
clinical trials, electronic health records, and personal devices and
wearable sensors; (2) restructuring clinical research operations to
support and incentivize the involvement of patients and frontline
clinicians; and (3) articulating ethical constructs that enable
responsible data sharing to support improved implementation. Finally, we
must also address the systemic tendency to optimize individual
components of the clinical research enterprise without considering the
effects on the system as a whole. Overcoming suboptimization by creating
incentives for integration and sharing will be essential to achieve more
timely and equitable improvement in health outcomes.},

Journal = {GENDER IN MANAGEMENT},
Year = {2021},
Volume = {36},
Number = {4},
Pages = {553-567},
Month = {MAY 21},
Abstract = {Purpose
There is scarcity in the literature, both empirically and theoretically,
regarding the relationship between transgender discrimination and
prostitution. This study aims to offer a new framework for
conceptualizing workplace discrimination and prostitution by examining
the mediating role of poverty in the relationship between discrimination
and prostitution.
Design/methodology/approach
The conceptual framework of this study is based on the social identity
theory and the theory of prostitution.
Findings
Transgender is a neglected group in society, and more often, they are
the ones who are unable to find jobs and when employed, find it
challenging to sustain their employment because of their gender
identity. This leads them to be discriminated at their workplaces.
Subsequently, they are forced to leave their workplace and settle to
work as prostitutes for their economic survival.
Research limitations/implications
Further research should empirically test the design model.
Practical implications
Managers play an essential role in eliminating discrimination in the
organization. Managers need to take measures in crafting gender-free and
anti-discrimination policies. They take steps to design recruitment
policies in which there is no need to disclose applicant identity.
Social implications
Discrimination, on the basis of gender identity, promotes a culture of
hate, intolerance and economic inequality in society. Prostitution has
devastating effects on society.
Originality/value
In the field of organizational behavior, discrimination as a factor of
prostitution was not explored. This study provides a significant
contribution to the transgender and discrimination literature along with
the prostitution theory and the social identity theory by proposing a
model that highlights discrimination as one of the factors that compel
the transgender community to be involved in prostitution.},

examine how workplace disability facilities affect job retention plans
among workers with physical disabilities in South Korea and how
perceived workplace safety and work satisfaction act as mediators. The
2018 Panel Survey of Employment for the Disabled was used, and we
examined 1023 workers with physical disabilities. Path analysis was used
to examine the relationships. Results showed that workers whose
workplaces provided more disability facilities were significantly more
likely to perceive their workplaces as safe and had higher work
satisfaction; hence, they were more likely to wish to maintain their
present jobs than those whose workplaces offered fewer facilities.
However, many workplaces in Korea did not provide any disability
facilities. The study provides empirical evidence to support development
of policies for improved workplace facilities and work environments for
disabled people, in accordance with the UN Agenda.},

Title = {Community group exercise versus physiotherapist-led home-based physical
activity program: barriers, enablers and preferences in middle-aged
adults},

Abstract = {Background/Purpose: Barriers and enablers of physical activity have been
investigated, but it remains unclear what middle-aged adults' physical
activity preferences are. Two physical activity interventions were
compared to determine barriers, enablers and preferences for physical
activity format in sedentary, community-dwelling 50- to 65-year-olds.
Methods: Using mixed methods, 37 Physical Activity at Home (PAAH)
participants took part in focus groups at the end of the intervention
period and completed the Active Australia Survey (AAS). Participants
were divided into three sub-groups: (1) group exercise attendees (GA, n
= 14); (2) group exercise non-attendees (GNA, n = 9); and (3)
physiotherapist-led home-based physical activity program attendees (HB,
n = 14). Focus groups were audio-taped, transcribed, coded and analysed
using an inductive thematic approach. Thirty-seven exit telephone calls
with GNA were included in the analysis. Results: Cost, self-efficacy,
work and carer commitments were major themes identified for GA and GNA.
HB participants reported fewer barriers and a number of enablers,
including flexibility of the program and physiotherapist instruction. HB
and GNA were younger than GA (p< 0.05), more likely to be in paid
employment and GNA participants were insufficiently active (p <= 0.01).
All participants preferred some home-based physical activity, although a
variety of formats was indicated. Conclusion: The barriers, enablers and
preferences indicate that the physiotherapist-led home-based physical
activity program with initial face-to-face contact and telephone support
may increase the adoption and maintenance of physical activity in
middle-aged adults, particularly for those not interested in, or unable
to attend, group exercise.},

Abstract = {Context-Given the shortage of kidneys for transplant, living kidney
donation (LKD) is increasingly used to expand the organ donor pool.
Although Hispanics/Latinos need disproportionately more kidney
transplants, they receive a smaller proportion of living donor kidney
transplants than other ethnic/racial groups.
Objective-To assess Hispanics' awareness, perceptions, misconceptions,
cultural beliefs, and values about and barriers to LKD.
Design-Nine focus groups were conducted with 76 adult Hispanics in
Chicago, Illinois, between January and March 2012.
Participants-Focus groups included kidney transplant recipients, living
kidney donors, dialysis patients, and the general Hispanic public.
Results-Several themes emerged as perceived barriers to LKD. Many
participants identified knowledge deficits about LKD, expressing
uncertainty about the differences between LKD and deceased donation, and
whether kidney disease simultaneously afflicts both kidneys. Many
believed that donors experience dramatically shorter life expectancies,
are unable to have children, and are more susceptible to kidney disease
after donating. Recipients and donors reported that family members were
involved in discussions about the donor's decision to donate, with some
family members discouraging donation. Financial bathers cited included
fear of becoming unable to work, losing one's job, or being unable to
pay household bills while recovering. Participants also identified
logistic barriers for undocumented immigrants (eg, the inability to
obtain government insurance for transplant candidates and uncertainty
about their eligibility to donate). Donors desired information about
optimizing self-care to promote their remaining kidney's health.
Culturally competent interventions are needed to redress Hispanics'
knowledge deficits and misconceptions and reduce LKD disparities among
Hispanics. (C) 2014 NATCO, The Organization for Transplant Professionals},

Abstract = {Individuals with disabilities face increasing health and employment
disparities, including increased risk of morbidity and mortality and
decreased earnings, occupational roles, and greater risk of injury at
work. Thus, there is a need to improve workplace safety and health
promotion efforts for people with disability. The purpose of this study
was to obtain stakeholder feedback about an online program, Be Active,
Work Safe, which was developed to increase the physical activity and
workplace safety practices of individuals with disability. Eight
stakeholders (content experts and individuals with disability) evaluated
the 8-week online program and provided feedback on accessibility,
usability, and content using quantitative and qualitative approaches.
Stakeholders suggested changes to the organization, layout and
accessibility, and content. This included making a stronger connection
between the physical activity and workplace safety components of the
program, broadening content to apply to individuals in different
vocational fields, and reducing the number of participant assessments.
Engaging stakeholders in the development of health promotion programs is
critical to ensure the unique issues of the population are addressed and
facilitate engagement in the program. Feedback provided by stakeholders
improved the program and provided insight on barriers for adoption of
the program. (C) 2017 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.},

Title = {Factors influencing breastfeeding continuation and formula feeding
beyond six months in rural and urban households in Indonesia: a
qualitative investigation},
Journal = {INTERNATIONAL BREASTFEEDING JOURNAL},
Year = {2023},
Volume = {18},
Number = {1},
Month = {AUG 31},
Abstract = {BackgroundGlobal and Indonesian guidelines suggest that breastfeeding
should continue for at least the first two years of life. While many
studies have focused on six-month exclusive breastfeeding practices,
little is known about why mothers do not sustain breastfeeding beyond
this period. This qualitative study aimed to explore factors influencing
breastfeeding continuation and formula feeding beyond six months,
regardless of any additional food consumed, focusing on Indonesia's
rural and urban areas.MethodsWe collected the data through 46 in-depth
interviews in Pati District and Surakarta City, Central Java, Indonesia.
Participants were mothers, grandmothers, health care practitioners, and
village kader (frontline female health workers). We used thematic
analysis combining deductive and inductive techniques for analysing the
data.ResultsRural mothers practised breastfeeding and intended to
breastfeed for a longer duration than urban mothers. Maternal attitude
towards breastfeeding, breastfeeding knowledge, previous experiences,
and other breastfeeding strategies (e.g., enhancing maternal dietary
quality) positively influenced breastfeeding sustainability. In the
urban setting, mothers encountered several breastfeeding barriers, such
as perceived breast milk insufficiency and child hunger and satiety,
child biting, and breastfeeding refusal, causing them to provide formula
milk as a breast milk substitute or supplement. In addition, families,
communities, health practitioners, and employment influenced maternal
decisions in breastfeeding continuation and formula-feeding
practices.ConclusionsOptimal breastfeeding practices up to two years of
age are determined by the individual and setting (i.e., community,
healthcare, employment) factors. Providing breastfeeding education
covering practical breastfeeding guidance will encourage mothers to
breastfeed for longer. Such interventions should involve families,
communities, health workers, and the work environment as a breastfeeding
support system. Policymakers should develop, enforce, and monitor the
implementation of breastfeeding policies to protect, promote, and
support breastfeeding in households, communities, health systems, and
work settings.},

Title = {Social support needs for equity in health and social care: a thematic
analysis of experiences of people with chronic fatigue syndrome/myalgic
encephalomyelitis},
Journal = {INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL FOR EQUITY IN HEALTH},
Year = {2011},
Volume = {10},
Month = {NOV 2},
Abstract = {Background: Needs-based resource allocation is fundamental to equitable
care provision, which can meet the often-complex, fluctuating needs of
people with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome/Myalgic Encephalomyelitis (CFS/ME).
This has posed challenges both for those providing and those seeking
support providers, in building shared understanding of the condition and
of actions to address it. This qualitative study reports on needs for
equity in health and social care expressed by adults living with CFS/ME.
Methods: The participants were 35 adults with CFS/ME in England,
purposively selected to provide variation in clinical presentations,
social backgrounds and illness experiences. Accounts of experienced
needs and needs-related encounters with health and social services were
obtained through a focus group (n = 6) and semi-structured interviews (n
= 35). These were transcribed and needs related topics identified
through data-led thematic analysis.
Findings: Participants emphasised needs for personalised, timely and
sustained support to alleviate CFS/ME impacts and regain life control,
in three thematic areas: (1) Illness symptoms, functional limitations
and illness management; (2) practical support and social care; (3)
financial support. Access of people with CFS/ME to support from health
and social services was seen to be constrained by barriers stemming from
social, cultural, organisational and professional norms and practices,
further heightened for disadvantaged groups including some ethnic
minorities. These reduced opportunities for their illness to be
explained or associated functional limitations and social disadvantages
to be addressed through social support. Participants sought more
understanding of bio-psycho-social aspects of CFS/ME, of felt needs of
people with CFS/ME and of human rights and disability rights, for
providing person-centred, equitable care.
Conclusions: Changes in attitudes of health practitioners, policy makers
and general public and more flexibly organised health and social care
provision are needed to address equity issues in support needs expressed
by people with CFS/ME, to be underpinned by research-based knowledge and
communication, for public and professional education. Policy development
should include shared decision-making and coordinated action across
organizations working for people with CFS/ME, human rights and
disadvantaged groups. Experiences of people with CFS/ME can usefully
inform an understanding of equity in their health and social care.},

Abstract = {Introduction The future of work is expected to transform the nature of
work, create unique employment barriers for young people living with
disabilities and disrupt pathways to better health. We present a Delphi
survey protocol through which we aim to obtain future-oriented
strategies that can improve the accessibility and inclusion of young
people with disabilities in the future of work. Methods and analysis The
Delphi survey will be conducted primarily online, over two rounds and in
a format that is accessible to people living with disabilities. A
diverse sample of subject matter experts (eg, policy makers, employment
service providers, labour market experts) and participants with lived
experience of a disability will be recruited using a purposive sampling
strategy. All participants will be asked to complete both rounds of the
Delphi survey. In the first round, open-ended questions will be asked
about workplace, community-based or policy supports that can foster the
inclusion of young people with disabilities in the labour market and
that can also address specific future of work trends which span
sociopolitical, economic, environmental and technological domains. In
the second round of the survey, we will aim to build consensus;
participants will be provided with a summary of specific strategies that
correspond to the different future of work trends emerging from round
one and will be asked to rank-order strategies according to their
importance. Following the completion of the second round,
consensus-based and future-focused recommendations will be generated
that can support young people with disabilities in the world of work
over the coming decades. Ethics and dissemination The study protocol has
been cleared by the University of Toronto's research ethics board
(\#40727). The study will identify future-focused support strategies
that will be shared with people living with disabilities, policy makers
and disability employment service providers through an integrated
knowledge transfer and exchange approach.},

Abstract = {Objective: The systematic collection and use of race/ethnicity and
language (REL) data by healthcare organizations has long been recognized
as a critical step to reducing healthcare disparities locally and
nationally. We seek to identify the challenges and opportunities in
implementing community-level interventions to collect REL data for
detecting and reducing disparities in care in the 14 multi-stakeholder
communities participating in the Aligning Forces for Quality initiative.
Study Design: This was a cross-sectional descriptive qualitative study.
Methods: We conducted 1-hour, face-to-face, semi-structured interviews
with identified key informants during 2-day visits to each of the 14
communities in 2010, and supplemented this information with 2 rounds of
semi-structured telephone interviews. Data were analyzed using a
qualitative analysis software program, which assists with organizing and
analyzing large quantities of interview data through creation of
analytic units. We used deductive and inductive qualitative methods to
analyze the data.
Results: Communities found it challenging to implement a community-level
intervention to collect standardized REL data because addressing
disparities is complex, the utility of having individual healthcare
organizations collect these data is difficult to communicate, and
perceptions of disparities in the community vary across stakeholders.
Opportunities include working with credible ``early adopters{''} in the
community and leveraging federal or state mandates to encourage
providers to collect this information.
Conclusions: Community-level efforts to collect REL data require
securing buy-in from organizational leadership, developing a dialogue
across the community, and generating awareness across key players about
disparities-reduction efforts, especially REL data collection, without
alienating patients, communities, and providers. (Am J Manag Care.

Abstract = {Throughout the history of contemporary feminism, women's presence in the
public sphere has been a perennial issue, demanding all sorts of
strategies to promote women's inclusion in the economic and political
arenas. Starting in the 1980s, feminist scholars in International
Relations have questioned the absence of women in the international
arena, alongside the pervasive gender hierarchies of the international
system. Not only was it that women had been systematically excluded from
politics, but the scholarship in IR had largely ignored feminist claims
about the gendering of international politics. Largely animated by
feminist movements and the nascent feminist debates in IR, the World
Conferences on Women (1975, 1980, 1985, and 1995) stressed the paramount
need for taking women's demands seriously. Such demands encompassed
social, economic, and political domains, echoing decades of feminist
struggles in the first, second and third worlds. The United Nations
played a crucial role in fostering an agenda of gender equality and
women's rights as human rights, which have been a quintessential part of
the Millennium Development Goals and, more recently, the Sustainable
Development Goals.
Furthermore, gender-oriented policies have been promoted in myriad UN
agencies and international organisations, such as the World Bank and
International Monetary Fund. Despite all these efforts purporting to
raise awareness about gender equality and women's rights, as well as
about the need for more inclusive policies for women in the
international arena, women's presence in international fora as leaders
has been remarkably low. As for the United Nations,until now no woman
has been elected to the organisation's highest post, that of secretary
general, and only recently the International Monetary Fund and World
Bank have had female managing directors. These sobering results show a
different picture of international organisations that promote gender
equality as their political and social commitment, whilst failing to
comply with the very same discourse when it comes to women's leadership
in their formal structures. In this context, the present article aims to
assess quantitatively and qualitatively women's presence in leadership
roles at the United Nations and international economic organisations
(namely, the IMF,WB and World Trade Organisation). It departs from the
following research question: What is the current state of affairs of
women's participation in the highest posts of the United Nations and the
international organizations of the global economic system?
Methodologically, we resort to descriptive statistical data of women's
presence at various agencies of the United Nations and the
aforementioned economic institutions from 1990-2018. Of greatest concern
will be those occupying the posts of presidency and vice-presidency.
Counting women is a traditional approach in feminist studies in IR, and
it is a paramount step in making women count. The second goal of our
paper, thus, derives directly from the data: by mapping the few women
occupying positions of leadership in international organisations, we can
assess the gender structures operating to the disadvantage of women. In
order to do so, we resort to feminist theories as developed in political
science and IR, for they provide the conceptual tools to provide data
with meaning. We focus primarily on how gendered institutions confine
women to specific gendered roles that emanate from the private sphere of
domesticity. This means that women suffer from various exclusionary
dynamics: firstly, they are excluded from leadership roles for the fact
of being women; secondly, the few who manage to break through the glass
ceiling of a masculine international arena are assigned positions that
mimic the elements of the private sphere. Frequently, female leaders are
responsible for social issues,childhood, food security, education, and
culture, all of which are labeled as soft issues, or belonging to the
domain of low politics.
Feminist IR scholars have extensively denounced these gendered
structures as part of how men preserve their privileges under the
framework of hegemonic masculinity. Therefore,we draw on the work of
several IR feminists who are concerned with the theoretical questioning
and empirical unravelling of such gender hierarchies to interpret our
data beyond the mere counting of women. We contend that women in
leadership roles in the United Nations and international economic
organisations more frequently occupy portfolios that are seen as soft
issues or low politics. Likewise, these roles are often associated with
the care for others, which reinforces gender roles and hierarchies.
Women are more likely to occupy the presidencies and vice-presidencies
of agencies such as UNICEF, UNESCO,WFP, and OHCHR, all of which deal
with issues associated with childhood, education, culture, food security
and human rights. We conclude that an apparent glass ceiling the
invisible barrier that prevents women from reaching higher and more
prestigious posts in their professional careers - still remains in
international institutions,limiting the participation of women in
decision-making fora. The few female leaders who manage to reach the
highest posts in the international arena are more likely to be
exceptions of a pervasive phenomenon of gender inequality and lack of
representativeness. The discourses embraced by the United Nations and
international economic organisations fail to meet the minimal criteria
for gender parity within these organizations' structures, and even where
women have been assigned leadership roles, gender stereotypes still
prevail. Further evidence revealed in our research refers to the
regional representativeness of the few female leaders in these
international organisations: about 55\% of them come from Western Europe
and North America. Latin American and African women are strongly
underrepresented in the United Nations system, as well as in the Bretton
Woods institutions, which is itself problematic because the particular
perspectives of women from the Global South are also excluded from
debates in these international fora.
Therefore, international organisations also face the challenge of
fostering the diversity of feminist perspectives by developing
strategies to include Global South women in their formal structure,
ideally as leaders. In this sense, our paper draws attention to the
importance of pluralism not only in terms of gender parity, but also of
a feminist worldview. In order to make women count in the international
arena, the United Nations and international economic organisations have
to fully commit themselves to concrete policies for women's inclusion,
not only as heads of the institutions, but also in lower hierarchies
where policies are designed. Only by acknowledging that women's
perspectives matter, can we achieve the goals of gender equality.},

Title = {Barriers and enablers to implementing multiple stroke guideline
recommendations: a qualitative study},
Journal = {BMC HEALTH SERVICES RESEARCH},
Year = {2013},
Volume = {13},
Month = {AUG 19},
Abstract = {Background: Translating evidence into practice is an important final
step in the process of evidence-based practice. Medical record audits
can be used to examine how well practice compares with published
evidence, and identify evidence-practice gaps. After providing audit
feedback to professionals, local barriers to practice change can be
identified and targetted with focussed behaviour change interventions.
This study aimed to identify barriers and enablers to implementing
multiple stroke guideline recommendations at one Australian stroke unit.
Methods: A qualitative methodology was used. A sample of 28 allied
health, nursing and medical professionals participated in a group or
individual interview. These interviews occurred after staff had received
audit feedback and identified areas for practice change. Questions
focused on barriers and enablers to implementing guideline
recommendations about management of: upper limb sensory impairments,
mobility including sitting balance; vision; anxiety and depression;
neglect; swallowing; communication; education for stroke survivors and
carers; advice about return to work and driving. Qualitative data were
analysed for themes using theoretical domains described by Michie and
colleagues (2005).
Results: Six group and two individual interviews were conducted,
involving six disciplines. Barriers were different across disciplines.
The six key barriers identified were: (1) Beliefs about capabilities of
individual professionals and their discipline, and about patient
capabilities (2) Beliefs about the consequences, positive and negative,
of implementing the recommendations (3) Memory of, and attention to,
best practices (4) Knowledge and skills required to implement best
practice; (5) Intention and motivation to implement best practice, and
(6) Resources. Some barriers were also enablers to change. For example,
occupational therapists required new knowledge and skills (a barrier),
to better manage sensation and neglect impairments while
physiotherapists generally knew how to implement best-practice mobility
rehabilitation (an enabler).
Conclusions: Findings add to current knowledge about barriers to change
and implementation of multiple guideline recommendations. Major
challenges included sexuality education and depression screening.
Limited knowledge and skills was a common barrier. Knowledge about
specific interventions was needed before implementation could commence,
and to maintain treatment fidelity. The provision of detailed online
intervention protocols and manuals may help clinicians to overcome the
knowledge barrier.},

Abstract = {Purpose Self-evaluated access and accessibility has been found to be
associated with healthcare seeking and quality of life. Studies have
shown that, however, a vast majority of individuals with disability
living in poor countries have limited access to healthcare influenced by
several barriers. The purpose of this paper is to compare the perception
of general accessibility of health care services and its association
with access barriers and other contextual factors between people with
physical disabilities and counterparts without disability.
Design/methodology/approach This study is a cross sectional survey
involving 213 individuals with physical disabilities and 213
counterparts without disability sampled using a multi-stage method. Data
were collected using a structured questionnaire with sections on
socioeconomic and living conditions, education, health, employment and
access to health care. Data analysis involved using chi(2) for
proportions and T-test and multiple regressions (stepwise) method to
determine significant factors that influence perception on
accessibility. Findings The study finds that people with disabilities
fared worse in various socioeconomic factors such as education,
employment, income and assets possession. People with disabilities also
experience more dimensional barriers and reported poor health system
accessibility. The difference in accessibility continued after adjusting
for other variables, implying that there are more inherent factors that
explain the perception of access for people with disabilities. Practical
implications - Governments should ensure equitable access to health care
delivery for people with disabilities through equitable health policies
and services that are responsive to the needs of people with
disabilities and promote the creation of enabling environment to enhance
participation in health care delivery. Originality/value The authors

GOVERNANCE?},
Series = {Globalisation Europe Multilateralism},
Year = {2013},
Pages = {249-267},
Abstract = {Since the 1980s, a new round of economic globalisation which has been
characterised by a free flow of financial factors has brought an overall
prosperity to the global economy, but also intensified the damages
wrought by economic crises and, simultaneously, aggravated the economic
recession. Globalisation also leads to a series of complex social
problems. Among those problems, the inequality of wealth is
comparatively the most fundamental and conspicuous factor. On the one
hand, during the period of economic prosperity, despite the increase of
aggregated global wealth and the reduction in the extreme levels of
poverty, the gaps within social distribution gradually widen. On the
other hand, during the periods of economic crises and recession, in
spite of a relative narrowing down of the gaps in social distribution,
the aggregated social wealth is thanks to globalisation being reduced
and the unemployment rates rising. Although different types of
countries, such as developed countries, the newly emerging economies,
and the low-income countries, differ in their performance, their overall
economic and social developments are similar. Against the background of
globalisation, a sluggish economic growth and widening of the wealth gap
in Europe seem to be particularly outstanding. The reasons for this
phenomenon are as follows: this round of globalisation has consolidated
contradictions between highly liberalised capital flows and a relatively
fixed labour force. As a result, the primary distribution of social
wealth has brought more advantages to owners of capital and more
disadvantages to the working class. At the same time, however, the
social bias caused by globalisation further weakened the redistributive
effects of the social security systems in the developed countries
(particularly in Europe), while the relative lack of social security
systems in the developing countries have aggravated the degrees of
wealth inequality. In response to the wealth inequality brought about by
globalisation, the anti-globalisation movements appear to be passive and
ineffective, whereas the efforts made by the governments of a number of
countries, particularly those in Europe, to reform the social security
systems and to promote employment might have hit the nail on the head.
Meanwhile, it seems to be ever more important to advance the
coordination of global governance which is led by interrelated
international organisations.},

Title = {Personalized and yet standardized: An informed approach to the

Journal = {PALLIATIVE \& SUPPORTIVE CARE},
Year = {2018},
Volume = {16},

Abstract = {Objective. The death of a child has been associated with adverse
parental outcomes, including a heightened risk for psychological
distress, poor physical health, loss of employment income, and
diminished psychosocial well-being. Psychosocial standards of care for
centers serving pediatric cancer patients recommend maintaining at least
one meaningful contact between the healthcare team and bereaved parents
to identify families at risk for negative psychosocial sequelae and to
provide resources for bereavement support. This study assessed how this
standard is being implemented in current healthcare and palliative care
practices, as well as barriers to its implementation.
Method. Experts in the field of pediatric palliative care and oncology
created a survey that was posted with review and permission on four
listservs. The survey inquired about pediatric palliative and
bereavement program characteristics, as well as challenges and barriers
to implementation of the published standards of care.
Result. The majority of participants (N= 100) self-reported as
palliative care physicians (51\%), followed by oncologists (19\%).
Although 59\% of staff reported that their center often or always
deliver bereavement care after a child's death, approximately two-thirds
reported having no policy for the oncology team to routinely assess
bereavement needs. Inconsistent types of bereavement services and
varying duration of care was common. Twenty-eight percent of
participants indicated that their center has no systematic contact with
bereaved families after the child's death. Among centers where contacts
are made, the person who calls the bereaved parent is unknown to the
family in 30\% of cases. Few centers (5\%) use a bereavement screening
or assessment tool.
Significance of results. Lark of routine assessment of bereavement
needs, inconsistent duration of bereavement care, and tremendous
variability in bereavement services suggest more work is needed to
promote standardized, policy-driven bereavement care. The data shed
light on multiple areas and opportunities for improvement.},

Abstract = {Limited access to networks amongst women and other institutionalised
constraints, such as the glass-ceiling effect and gender-role
stereotypes, have contributed to under representation of women in senior
management levels. Moreover, women in top jobs are not afforded support
systems in the form of networking to be effective at these senior
levels, and therefore, experience isolation in the workplace. The study
contributes to the literature on networking. Within these studies, there
is agreement that building networks necessitate deliberate attempts to
develop and maintain relationships with others who have power to assist
in career progression. Comparing all groups of women, white women tend
to be the majority in top roles and most research has been conducted on
white women samples. On the contrary, black women experience limitations
in accessing networks in the workplace because of the challenges of
duality of race and gender that include encountering stereotypical
beliefs held by society, negative historical beliefs, racial and gender
discrimination, as well as barriers to informal social networks. Also,
there are limited studies that discuss the networking experiences of
black women in senior positions. This research examines the networking
behaviours of black women in the public sector and its impact on career
progression. Following a qualitative research method, this study
identifies networking structures, activities and the benefits that are
derived from these networks for these women. Empirical data drawn from
fifteen (15) participants at senior management levels in the public
sector in the finance cluster were interviewed using the semi-structured
interview method. Purposive sampling method was adopted and the data
analysed using thematic content analysis. The participants came from
different government departments namely, the South African Revenue
Service, Auditor General of South Africa and the National Treasury of
South Africa. The findings of the study reveal that there is limited
participation in networks amongst black women in the public sector. The
participants largely associated with professional networks for career
enrichment and guidance. Overall, the study found that these women often
participated in social networks where they interacted with people who
shared similar interests as them. They further engaged in networking
activities that could provide psychosocial support, access to job
opportunities and assistance with work task challenges. The study
provides insight into how black women support themselves in top jobs.},

Title = {Setting the global research agenda for community-based HIV service
delivery through the faith sector},
Journal = {HEALTH RESEARCH POLICY AND SYSTEMS},
Year = {2021},
Volume = {19},
Number = {1},
Month = {MAY 17},
Abstract = {Background While leading AIDS organizations expect faith and health
collaborations to play a crucial role in organizing and scaling up
community-based HIV services, it is unclear how this can be realized.
Little primary research has been conducted into which strategies for
collaboration and service provision are most effective, efficient,
scalable and sustainable. Seeking to align research with urgent needs,
enhance coordination and increase the likelihood that results are used,
this study aimed to set an inclusive global research agenda that
reflects priority research questions from key stakeholders at the
intersection of HIV healthcare and faith. Methods In order to develop
this global research agenda, we drew from document analyses, focus group
discussions, interviews with purposively selected key informants from
all continents (policy-makers, healthcare providers, faith leaders,
academics and HIV activists), an online questionnaire, and expert
meetings at several global conferences. We carried out focus group
discussions and interviews with faith leaders in South Africa. Other
stakeholder focus groups and interviews were carried out online or in
person in France, Switzerland, the Netherlands and South Africa, and
virtual questionnaires were distributed to stakeholders worldwide.
Respondents were purposively sampled. Results We interviewed 53
participants, and 110 stakeholders responded to the online
questionnaire. The participants worked in 54 countries, with the
majority having research experience (84\%), experience with policy
processes (73\%) and/or experience as a healthcare provider (60\%) and
identifying as religious (79\%). From interviews (N = 53) and
questionnaires (N = 110), we identified 10 research themes: addressing
sexuality, stigma, supporting specific populations, counselling and
disclosure, agenda-setting, mobilizing and organizing funding,
evaluating faith-health collaborations, advantage of faith initiatives,
gender roles, and education. Respondents emphasized the need for more
primary research and prioritized two themes: improving the engagement of
faith communities in addressing sexuality and tackling stigma.
Conclusions A wide range of respondents participated in developing the
research agenda. To align research to the prioritized themes and ensure
that results are used, it is essential to further engage key users,
funders, researchers and other stakeholders, strengthen the capacity for
locally embedded research and research uptake and contextualize
priorities to diverse religious traditions, key populations and local
circumstances.},

Month = {SEP},
Abstract = {Aim and objectives. To identify the theories and concepts related to
building age-friendly rural communities.
Background. Global population is rapidly ageing. Creating environments
that support active ageing was a catalyst for the World Health
Organization to develop Global Age-Friendly Cities guidelines. Although
the age-friendly movement has captured the attention of some countries,
little is known about the participation of older people in rural
settings.
Method. An integrative review approach was employed to summarise the
research literature on this topic. Using a systematic search strategy,
databases including Discover (EBSCO's electronic database system), Web
of Science, Scopus, PubMed, CINAHL, PsycINFO, Medline and Google Scholar
were searched. Primary, peer-reviewed studies were included if published
during 2007-2014 in the English language.
Results. Nine studies were eligible for inclusion. The studies were set
predominantly in Canada, with the exception of one from Ireland. The
findings were summarised and clustered into main topics which included:
theoretical perspectives; geographic and demographic characteristics;
collaboration and partnerships; sustainability and capacity; and
finally, future research agendas.
Conclusions. Rural communities are changing rapidly and are becoming
increasingly diverse environments. Community characteristics can help or
hinder age-friendliness. Importantly, the fundamental starting point for
age-friendly initiatives is establishing older peoples' perceptions of
their own communities.
Relevance to clinical practice. It is important for nurses, working in
primary health care settings, to understand the needs of older people in
the communities in which they practice. This includes the community
characteristics that can be enablers and barriers to older people being
able to remain and age within their own communities.},

Month = {NOV},
Abstract = {ObjectivesThis research aimed to understand the barriers and
facilitators clinicians face in using a digital clinical decision
support tool-UpToDate-around the globe.DesignWe used a mixed-methods
cohort study design that enrolled 1681 clinicians (physicians, surgeons
or physician assistants) who applied for free access to UpToDate through
our established donation programme during a 9-week study enrolment
period. Eligibility included working outside of the USA for a
limited-resource public or non-profit health facility, serving
vulnerable populations, having at least intermittent internet access,
completing the application in English; and not being otherwise able to
afford the subscription.InterventionAfter consenting to study
participation, clinicians received a 1-year subscription to UpToDate.
They completed a series of surveys over the year, and we collected
clickstream data tracking their use of the tool.Primary and secondary
outcome measures(1) The variation in use by demographic; (2) the
prevalence of barriers and facilitators of use; and (3) the relationship
between barriers, facilitators and use.ResultsOf 1681 study enrollees,
69\% were men and 71\% were between 25 and 35 years old, with the
plurality practicing general medicine and the majority in sub-Saharan
Africa or Southeast Asia. Of the 11 barriers we assessed, fitting the
tool into the workflow was a statistically significant barrier, making
clinicians 50\% less likely to use it. Of the 10 facilitators we
assessed, a supportive professional context and utility were significant
drivers of use.ConclusionsThere are several clear barriers and
facilitators to promoting the use of digital clinical decision support
tools in practice. We recommend tools like UpToDate be implemented with
complementary services. These include generating a supportive
professional context, helping clinicians realise the tools' use and
working with health systems to better integrate digital, clinical
decision support tools into workflows.},

Title = {Dynamic pathways of barriers and opportunities for food security and
climate adaptation in Southern Mali},
Journal = {WORLD DEVELOPMENT},
Year = {2021},
Volume = {148},
Month = {DEC},
Abstract = {Barriers to food security and climate adaptation operate in complex and
dynamic ways but are often perceived as static impediments to be
overcome. In this study, we apply systems thinking for the assessment of
barriers in agricultural decision-making for food security and climate
adaptation. Using a mixed method approach of participatory simulation
game design and causal loop diagrams, we explore the dynamic pathways
through which barriers inhibit farmers from achieving food security and
climate adaptation in Southern Mali. Results show that the key barriers
in the region are financial, land, and climate-related barriers
including unavailability of formal credit sources, high input prices,
inadequate land access and ownership rights, time and labor constraints
in collective vs individual plots, and climate risks such as early and
late season droughts, high temperature, excessive rainfall, water
scarcity, and pest incidences. These barriers operate in complex,
interdependent, and dynamic ways where factors that act as enablers in
one context can also function as barriers in another context. We see
such interdependencies in three cases: i) access to interlocked credit
and loans for cotton cultivation acts as enablers of income generation
for male farmers but become barriers to female farmers who do not
cultivate cotton ii) land ownership and land use rights for male farmers
act as enablers for cultivation of income generating cash and food crops
but acts as a barrier for female farmers by way of intra-household labor
dynamics within collective plots iii) increase in land allocation to
cotton and maize cultivation acts as enablers for increased household
income but becomes a barrier to food security due to higher
vulnerability to climate risks. Assessment of causal loop diagrams
identified deep and shallow leverage points. Policies and interventions
that focused on input subsidies and credit facilities are shallow
leverage points where incremental changes will only lead to small
improvements in farmers' livelihoods. Policies that support improved
access and ownership of land to female farmers are deep leverage points
that can potentially shift the dominant cropping pattern to more
diversified and climate-resilient production. (c) 2021 The Author(s).

Abstract = {Rationale/Purpose: The Federation Internationale de Football Association
(FIFA) has taken gender equality(1) 1 According to the International
Labour Organization (2018), gender equality refers to equal allocation
of rights, responsibilities, benefits, resources, and opportunities that
all people are treated in the same way while gender quality can be
understood in diverse ways in sport (Shaw \& Frisby, 2006). For example,
girls and women are regarded the same as boys and men; in turn, they
should be treated equally. On another note, gender equity indicates fair
treatments for women and men based on their respective needs. In most
instances, gender equity might not include equality to practices using a
liberal feminist perspective, but perceptions of fairness. As such,
gender equity is considered equivalent treatment in terms of the
allocation of rights and resources. Despite its important distinction
between these two concepts gender equality and gender equity, however,
the meanings are not clearly articulated in practice and thus lead to
complex understandings of the terms. In this paper, we question the
institutionalized gender inequality. Here we do not mean that women and
men leaders to become the same, but the resource allocation. initiatives
by inaugurating a female leadership development programme (FLDP)(2) 2
FIFA's gender initiatives in leadership can be traced back to their
appointment of the first woman in the history of FIFA, Lydia Nsekera, to
its 25-member executive committee in 2013. Ever since then, FIFA elected
three women, including Lydia Nsekera, to the executive committees, and
Moya Dodd, one of these members, committed herself to put extensive
efforts to improve gender balance in football. As a result, FIFA formed
a task force, chaired by Moya Dodd, to identify key areas and create
detailed plans for women's football during the presidency of Sepp
Blatter in 2014. As part of the efforts carried out by the task force,
FIFA launched a nine-month female leadership development programme
(FLDP) in May 2015. The FLDP aims to enhance gender diversity and
inclusive decision-making practices while increasing the number of women
leaders. In doing so, FIFA can convert such diversity initiatives into
tangible benefits for women's football and eventually change leadership
dynamics in football. After implementing the first edition of the FLDP,
FIFA appointed two women in the positions of secretary-general and chief
women's football in 2016. Because Moya Dodd and few colleagues from
inside and outside FIFA have done a great deal of work to promote
equitable leadership opportunities for women in football, FIFA has held
a series of annual conferences and workshops for the development of
women's football, as well as support for women in football governance.
as well as appointing women(3) 3 While the terms sex and gender are
often used interchangeably, there are distinctions between sex and
gender. According to Powell (2018), sex is related to anatomical
structure, referring to one's biological categories and physical
characteristics that, in most cases, define female and male, as well as
living organisms. The term gender, which has generally been used as a
synonym for sex for the past decades, is related to an imposed
sociocultural and psychological conditions for the biological categories
of sex. The discourses surrounding gender is particularly associated
with the socially constructed roles, attitudes, and behaviors of and
between groups of men and women.
For example, participation in sport and physical activities is perceived
as inappropriate for girls and women and includes few activities such as
dancing and gymnastics viewed as primarily for girls and women, if at
all (Cunningham, 2019). As such, gender stereotypes and roles are
closely associated with a particular sex and sport-with being masculine,
feminine, or neutral (Burton et al., 2009). More recently, researchers
have expanded the definition of gender and sex beyond the binary,
arguing that gender can be fluid and multifaceted (Halberstam, 2012). In
this case, people can challenge the restrictive views of gender to
express diverse social meanings and expectations. While we recognize
that gender can be seen as a spectrum, in this article, we indicate the
term gender as the idea of how boys and girls or men and women are
expected to behave at work. In doing so, we are able to discuss
traditional gender role expectations associated with those behaviors
adopted overtly or covertly by societal conditions. in leadership
positions. As such, we draw from a new theoretical notion, glass cliff
to explore why FIFA started FLDP and assigned women to leadership ranks.
Methodology/Approach: Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 16
women who accomplished FLDP.},

Abstract = {Inclusive education is a key strategy in addressing the needs of
children with autism and other developmental disabilities in sub-Saharan
Africa, who rarely access specialist care or quality education. We aimed
to systematically review qualitative research on stakeholder
experiences, attitudes and perspectives on inclusive education for
pupils with developmental disabilities in mainstream schools in
sub-Saharan Africa. We searched five databases and selected relevant
studies through a two-stage screening process. We synthesised the papers
identified through template analysis of the Results and Discussion
sections, guided by the Consolidated Framework for Implementation
Research. Thirty-two publications met the inclusion criteria. The
studies were conducted in seven countries and explored the experiences
of pupils with developmental disabilities, parents, peers without
developmental disabilities and teachers. Multiple barriers (e.g. unclear
policies, insufficient training and support for teachers) and
opportunities (e.g. teachers' commitment to inclusion, collaboration
between teachers, the work of non-governmental organisations (NGOs)) for
implementing inclusive education for pupils with developmental
disabilities in sub-Saharan Africa were identified, occurring across
national and community contexts and school, classroom and individual
teacher levels. To effectively implement inclusive education for pupils
with developmental disabilities, teachers need access to appropriate
training, resources and support. Governments can capitalise on motivated
teachers and the relevant work of NGOs. Lay abstract In sub-Saharan
Africa, there are few services for children with developmental
disabilities such as autism and intellectual disability. One way to
support these children is to include them in mainstream schools.
However, currently, African children with developmental disabilities are
often excluded from mainstream education opportunities. People involved
(e.g. teachers, families and children) can offer information on factors
that could ease or interfere with inclusion. This article discusses the
findings of published studies that explored the views of relevant groups
on including children with developmental disabilities in mainstream
schools in sub-Saharan Africa. We systematically searched the literature
and identified 32 relevant articles from seven countries in sub-Saharan
Africa. We found that unclear policies and insufficient training,
resources and support for teachers often blocked the implementation of
inclusive education. Factors in favour of inclusive education were the
commitment of many teachers to include pupils with developmental
disabilities and the work of non-governmental organisations (NGOs),
which provided resources and training. This review suggests that
motivated teachers should be provided with appropriate training,
resources and support for inclusive education, directly and by promoting
the work of NGOs.},

Title = {The integration of the global HIV/AIDS response into universal health
coverage: desirable, perhaps possible, but far from easy},
Journal = {GLOBALIZATION AND HEALTH},
Year = {2019},
Volume = {15},
Month = {JUN 18},
Abstract = {BackgroundThe international community's health focus is shifting from
achieving disease-specific targets towards aiming for universal health
coverage. Integrating the global HIV/AIDS response into universal health
coverage may be inevitable to secure its achievements in the long run,
and for expanding these achievements beyond addressing a single disease.
However, this integration comes at a time when international financial
support for the global HIV/AIDS response is declining, while political
support for universal health coverage is not translated into financial
support. To assess the risks, challenges and opportunities of the
integration of the global HIV/AIDS response into national universal
health coverage plans, we carried out assessments in Indonesia, Kenya,
Uganda and Ukraine, based on key informant interviews with civil
society, policy-makers and development partners, as well as on a review
of grey and academic literature.ResultsIn the absence of international
financial support, governments are turning towards national health
insurance schemes to finance universal health coverage, making access to
healthcare contingent on regular financial contributions. It is not
clear how AIDS treatment will be fit in. While the global HIV/AIDS
response accords special attention to exclusion due to sexual
orientation and gender identity, sex work or drug use, efforts to
achieve universal health coverage focus on exclusion due to poverty,
gender and geographical inequalities. Policies aiming for universal
health coverage try to include private healthcare providers in the
health system, which could create a sustainable framework for civil
society organisations providing HIV/AIDS-related services. While the
global HIV/AIDS response insisted on the inclusion of civil society in
decision-making policies, that is not (yet) the case for policies aiming
for universal health coverage.DiscussionWhile there are many obstacles
to successful integration of the global HIV/AIDS response into universal
health coverage policies, integration seems inevitable and is happening.
Successful integration will require expanding the principle of shared
responsibility' which emerged with the global HIV/AIDS response to
universal health coverage, rather than relying solely on domestic
efforts for universal health coverage. The preference for national
health insurance as the best way to achieve universal health coverage
should be reconsidered. An alliance between HIV/AIDS advocates and
proponents of universal health coverage requires mutual condemnation of
discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity, sex work
or drug use, as well as addressing of exclusion based on poverty and
other factors. The fulfilment of the promise to include civil society in
decision-making processes about universal health coverage is long
overdue.},

Abstract = {Background and Aims The Australian Deaf Community face barriers that
impede their access to, and communication within, primary health care
settings. This study aimed to identify barriers and facilitators to
access and communication for deaf individuals and Auslan interpreters in
Australian general practice settings. Methods Semi-structured interviews
were conducted with eight Auslan interpreters and four deaf participants
recruited from interpreter organisations and social media. Transcripts
of interviews were coded inductively and deductively based on a model of
access to health care. Results Patient, provider and contextual factors
were reported. Patient barriers included English and Auslan fluency
levels within the Australian Deaf Community. GP clinics varied in the
degree of accommodation to the needs of deaf people. There were barriers
related to the communication methods used by health care providers and
their use of interpreters. Visual aids and flexibility in terms of the
GP clinics' appointment systems facilitated access. Contextual barriers
included the shortage of Auslan interpreters and the complexity of the
National Disability Insurance Scheme. Conclusion The main barriers
identified concerned the availability of interpreters, accommodation by
health providers, cultural sensitivity and the adequacy of communication
methods. Research is needed to explore the limitations of the National
Disability Insurance Scheme and interventions to improve GPs' skills in
communicating with Deaf individuals. Patient or Public Contribution A
researcher with a hearing impairment and experience in working with
people with hearing impairments was consulted on study design and

Abstract = {Problems:Health-risk behaviors contribute to the leading causes of
morbidity and mortality among youth and adults in the United States. In
addition,significant health disparities exist among demographic
subgroups of youth defined by sex,race/ethnicity, and grade in school
and between sexual minority and nonsexual minority youth.
Population-based data on the most important healthrelated b behaviors at
the national, state, and local levels can be used to help monitor the
effectiveness of public health interventions designed to protect and
promote the health of youth at the national, state, and local levels.
Reporting Period Covered: September 2016-December 2017.
Description of the System: The Youth Risk Behavior Surveillance System
(YRBSS) monitors six categories of priority healthrelated behaviors
among youth and young adults: 1) behaviors that contribute to
unintentional injuries and violence; 2) tobacco use; 3) alcohol and
other drug use; 4) sexual behaviors related to unintended pregnancy and
sexually transmitted infections (STIs), including human immunodeficiency
virus (HIV) infection; 5) unhealthy dietary behaviors; and 6) physical
inactivity. In addition, YRBSS monitors the prevalence of other
health-related behaviors, obesity, and asthma. YRBSS includes a national
school-based Youth Risk Behavior Survey (YRBS) conducted by CDC and
state and large urban school district school-based YRBSs conducted by
state and local education and health agencies. Starting with the 2015
YRBSS cycle, a question to ascertain sexual identity and a question to
ascertain sex of sexual contacts were added to the national YRBS
questionnaire and to the standard YRBS questionnaire used by the states
and large urban school districts as a starting point for their
questionnaire. This report summarizes results from the 2017 national
YRBS for 121 health-related behaviors and for obesity, overweight, and
asthma by demographic subgroups defined by sex, race/ethnicity, and
grade in school and by sexual minority status; updates the numbers of
sexual minority students nationwide; and describes overall trends in
health-related behaviors during 1991-2017. This reports also summarizes
results from 39 state and 21 large urban school district surveys with
weighted data for the 2017 YRBSS cycle by sex and sexual minority status
(where available).
Results: Results from the 2017 national YRBS indicated that many high
school students are engaged in health-risk behaviors associated with the
leading causes of death among persons aged 10-24 years in the United
States. During the 30 days before the survey, 39.2\% of high school
students nationwide (among the 62.8\% who drove a car or other vehicle
during the 30 days before the survey) had texted or e-mailed while
drivng, 29.8\% reported current alcohol use, and 19.8\% reported current
marijuana use. In addition, 14.0\% of students had taken prescription
pain medicine without a doctor's prescription or differently than how a
doctor told them to use it one or more times during their life. During
the 12 months before the srvey, 19.0\% had been bullied on school
property and 7.4\% had attempted suicide. Many high school students are
engaged in sexual risk behaviors that relate to unintended pregnancies
and STIs, including HIV infection. Nationwide, 39.5\% of students had
ever had sexual intercourse and 9.7\% had had sexual intercourse with
four or more persons during their life. Among currently sexually active
students, 53.8\% and 9.7\% had had sexual intercourse with four or more
persons durig their life. Among currently sexually aciv. students,
53-8\% reported that either they or their partner had used a condom
during their last sexua intercourse. Results from the 2017 national YRBS
also indicated many high schoel students arc engaged in behaviors
associated with chrnic diseases, such as cardiovasular diease, cancer,
and diabete. Nationwide, 8.8\% of high school students had smoked
cig.rettes and 13-2\% had used an electronic vapor product on at least 1
day during the 30 days befoe the survey. Forty-three percent played
video or computer games or used a computer for 3 or more hours per day
on an average school day for something that was not school work and
15.4\% had not been physically active for a total of at least 60 minutes
on at least 1 day during the 7 days befoe the suvey. Further, 14.8\% had
.besity and 15.6\% were overweight. The prevalence of most
health-related behavior varies by sex,raceethnicity, and, particularly,
sexual dentity and sex of exual contact. Specifically, the prevalence of
many health-risk behaviors is significantly higher among sexual minority
students compared with nonsexual minority students.Nonetheless,analysis
of long-term temporal trends indicates that the overall prevalence of
most health-risk behaviors has moved in the desired direction.
Interpretation: Most high school students cope with the transition from
childhood through adolescence to adulthood successfully and become
healthy and productive adults.However,this report documents that some
subgroups of students defined by sex, race/ethnicity,grade in school,
and especially sexual minority status have a higher prevalence of many
health-risk behaviors that might place them at risk for unnecessary or
premature mortality, morbidity, and social problems (e.g., academic
failure, poverty, and crime).
Public Health Action: YRBSS data are used widely to compare the
prevalence of health-related behaviors among subpopulations of students;
assess trends in health-related behaviors over time; monitor progress
toward achieving 21 national health objectives; provide comparable state
and large urban school district data; and take public health actions to
decrease health-risk behaviors and improve health outcomes among youth.
Using this and other reports based on scientifically sound data is
important for raising awareness about the prevalence of health-related
behaviors among students in grades 9-12, especially sexual minority
students, among decision makers, the public, and a wide variety of
agencies and organizations that work with youth. These agencies and
organizations, including schools and youth-friendly health care
providers, can help facilitate access to critically important education,
health care, and high-impact, evidence-based interventions.},

Abstract = {Car use is associated with substantial health and environmental costs
but research in deprived populations indicates that car access may also
promote psychosocial well-being within car-oriented environments. This
mixed-method (quantitative and qualitative) study examined this issue in
a more affluent setting, investigating the socio-economic structure of
car commuting in Cambridge, UK. Our analyses involved integrating
self-reported questionnaire data from 1142 participants in the Commuting
and Health in Cambridge study (collected in 2009) and in-depth
interviews with 50 participants (collected 2009-2010). Even in Britain's
leading `cycling city', cars were a key resource in bridging the gap
between individuals' desires and their circumstances. This applied both
to long-term life goals such as home ownership and to shorter-term
challenges such as illness. Yet car commuting was also subject to
constraints, with rush hour traffic pushing drivers to start work
earlier and with restrictions on, or charges for, workplace parking
pushing drivers towards multimodal journeys (e.g. driving to a
`park-and-ride' site then walking). These patterns of car commuting were
socio-economically structured in several ways. First, the gradient of
housing costs made living near Cambridge more expensive, affecting who
could `afford' to cycle and perhaps making cycling the more salient
local marker of Bourdieu's class distinction. Nevertheless, cars were
generally affordable in this relatively affluent, highly-educated
population, reducing the barrier which distance posed to labour-force
participation. Finally, having the option of starting work early
required flexible hours, a form of job control which in Britain is more
common among higher occupational classes. Following a social model of
disability, we conclude that socio-economic advantage can make
car-oriented environments less disabling via both greater affluence and
greater job control, and in ways manifested across the full
socio-economic range. This suggests the importance of combining
individual-level `healthy travel' interventions with measures aimed at
creating travel environments in which all social groups can pursue
healthy and satisfying lives. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

Abstract = {The political strategy of forum shopping is an under-researched but
highly relevant concept for understanding the dynamics of global
governance. Forum shopping involves actors seeking to realise their
policy objectives within preferred policy arenas on the basis of an
arena's particular governing characteristics. We examine the forum
shopping behaviour of the key states, business and non-governmental
groups in regard to three policy issues: labour standards, intellectual
property rights, and chemicals regulation. Our preliminary analysis is
centred around the questions of why actors forum shop, the circumstances
in which forum shopping enables actors to succeed in promoting their
interests, and the impact of forum shopping on the effectiveness of
global governance. Our cases suggest an arena's membership, issue
mandate, decision making procedures and enforcement capacity are the key
characteristics that shape actors' arena preferences. Another important
implication is that a multi-arena global governance system comprised of
duplication and overlap in issue mandate (rather than large multilateral
single issue arenas) may be beneficial for advancing actors' policy
agendas. The overarching goal of the article is to spark more systematic
research into the often practiced but under-theorised phenomenon of
forum shopping. Policy Implications center dot Global governance is
achieved through action in multiple arenas, which provide different
opportunities for political action. An arena's membership, issue
mandate, decision making procedures and enforcement capacity should be
taken into account by policymakers in assessing appropriate arenas for
advancing their goals. center dot Entrepreneurial actors take advantage
of strategic inconsistencies' in the characteristics of international
policy arenas in order to progress or block the development of proposals
through incremental decisions. center dot Policymakers must be alert to
the likely use of forum shopping by other actors, including business
actors and NGOs, which may advance or stymie the development of policy
agendas in one arena via action in alternative arenas.},

with Disabilities Act},
Journal = {JOURNAL OF CANCER SURVIVORSHIP},
Year = {2022},
Volume = {16},
Number = {1},
Pages = {142-151},
Month = {FEB},
Abstract = {Purpose This special section of the Journal of Cancer Survivorship
examines disability-inclusive employment policy and practice, cancer
survivorship, and the Americans with Disabilities Act ({''}ADA{''}) of
1990. It considers current issues in research, policy, practice, and law
in the United States, including new questions arising in light of
COVID-19, such as the nature of disability disclosure, workplace
accommodations and remote work, emerging workplace health surveillance
technologies, and inclusive employment practices for cancer survivors.
It also presents, for comparative purposes, a current analysis of
cancer-related disability discrimination in the media in the United
States and Israel.
Methods After the ``Introduction,{''} this special section presents two
studies on disclosure of disability in employment: the first addressing
disclosure during a job interview of the need for accommodations, and
the second addressing disclosure as related to individual and
organizational characteristics. The next two articles examine the
effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on the work experience: first, for
people with disabilities working remotely, with implications for cancer
survivors, and second, for cancer survivors and people with disabilities
facing potential algorithmic health discrimination due to workplace
health surveillance. The final article considers cancer-related stigma
and discrimination, as faced in the United States and Israel (using a
comparison of mass media).
Results Disability-inclusive employment laws such as the ADA promote two
central requirements: First, social institutions affirmatively remove
attitudinal and structural barriers and discrimination confronting
people with disabilities as they exercise their rights to participate
fully in society. Second, employers, governmental entities, and public
accommodations comply with the ``accommodation principle,{''} which
requires them to make reasonable adjustments to job tasks, places of
work, and public places in society, to enable equal participation by
qualified individuals with disabilities. The articles in this special
section consider these principles in innovative ways from a
disability-inclusive paradigm.
Conclusions The COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the need for a robust
research literature on disability-inclusive employment policy and
practice for people with disabilities and for cancer survivors. This
special section offers five articles as a start. The section's
``Introduction{''} also highlights recent ADA case law and introduces
two new national Rehabilitation Research and Training Centers, one on
Disability Inclusive Employment Policy ({''}DIEP RRTC{''}) and one on
Employer Practices Leading to Successful Employment Outcomes Among
People with Disabilities ({''}Employer Practices RRTC{''}), both
designed to help fill this need. The centers are currently examining
ways organizations, including those in the gig economy, can facilitate
inclusive employment of people with disabilities.},

Title = {Equality of employment opportunities for nurses at the point of
qualification: An exploratory study},
Journal = {INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF NURSING STUDIES},
Year = {2013},
Volume = {50},
Number = {3},
Pages = {303-313},
Month = {MAR},
Abstract = {Background: Securing employment after qualification is of utmost
importance to newly qualified nurses to consolidate knowledge and
skills. The factors that influence success in gaining this first post
are not known.
Objectives: The study aimed to describe the first post gained after
qualification in terms of setting, nature of employment contract and
geographical distribution and explore the relationship between a range
of factors (including ethnicity) and employment at the point of
qualification.
Design: An exploratory study using structured questionnaires and
secondary analysis of data routinely collected by the universities about
students and their progress during their course.
Settings: The study was conducted in eight universities within a large,
multicultural city in the UK as part of the `Readiness for Work'
research programme.
Participants: Eight hundred and four newly qualified nurses who had
successfully completed a diploma or degree from one of the universities;
a response rate of 77\% representing 49\% of all graduating students in
the study population.
Methods: Data were collected by self-completed semi-structured
questionnaires administered to students at the time of qualification and
at three months post-qualification. Routinely collected data from the
universities were also collected.
Results: Fifty two percent of participants had been offered a job at the
point of qualification (85\% of those who had applied and been
interviewed). Of these, 99\% had been offered a nursing post, 88\% in
the city studied, 67\% in the healthcare setting where they had
completed a course placement. 44\% felt ``confident{''} and 32\% ``very
confident{''} about their employment prospects. Predictors of employment
success included ethnicity, specialty of nursing and university
attended. Predictors of confidence and preparedness for job seeking
included ethnicity, nursing specialty, gender and grade of degree. Newly
qualified nurses from non-White/British ethnic groups were less likely
to get a job and feel confident about and prepared for job seeking.
Conclusions: This study has demonstrated that ethnicity does lead to
employment disadvantage for newly qualified nurses. This is an important
contribution towards recognizing and describing the evidence so that
appropriate responses and interventions can be developed. It is
important that universities and healthcare institutions work closely
together to support students at this important time in their nursing
career. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.},

Title = {Transportation Use and Barriers for Employed and Unemployed Autistic
Adults},
Journal = {AUTISM IN ADULTHOOD},
Year = {2023},
Month = {2023 AUG 4},
Abstract = {Community brief Why is this an important issue?Employment is important
for income, quality of life, and the ability to get the supports or
services a person needs. Autistic adults are more likely to be
unemployed or underemployed when compared with neurotypical adults and
people with other disabilities. There are many environmental barriers to
participating in adult activities in the community, but issues with
transportation are a primary barrier. In previous research, a high
number of autistic adults (72\%) reported that they had missed some of
their desired activities due to lack of transportation. It is important
to understand the relationship between transportation and employment to
know how to overcome barriers and improve employment options for
autistic adults who want to work. What was the purpose of this
research?The purpose of this research was to look at transportation and
employment status (i.e., employed or unemployed). Specifically, this
study compared types of transportation used and perceived barriers to
transportation between autistic adults who were employed and those who
were unemployed. What did the researchers do?Information was collected
from 1120 autistic adults through a large statewide survey, which
included questions about employment and transportation. Information from
autistic adults who were employed and those who were not employed was
compared. What were the results of the study?Results of this comparison
showed that participants who were employed were more likely to drive
themselves and less likely to take rides from other people or to use
service transportation. Those who were employed also reported fewer
barriers to public transportation. Barriers such as crime, planning a
trip, treatment by fellow passengers, cost, knowledge on how to use
public transportation, and sensory overload were identified by more
people who were unemployed than by people who were employed. How will
these findings help autistic adults now or in the future?The study
identified specific barriers to transportation for autistic adults who
are unemployed. This information can help to guide supports and policies
to reduce barriers for travel needed for employment. In addition,
results of this study can help guide future research to develop or
identify the transportation skills needed for travel to work for
autistic adults.
Background: Autistic adults are significantly unemployed or
underemployed even compared with other disability groups. Employment is
a social determinant that, when satisfied, closely influences
health-related quality of life. For autistic adults, environmental
barriers to transportation can impact the ability to get to employment
resulting in limited employment opportunities. This study provides a
closer examination of the association between transportation use and
employment status.Objective: To examine the use of different types of
transportation and barriers to public transit by employed and unemployed
autistic adults.Method: The data were from a large statewide study
conducted between May 2017 and June 2018 using the Pennsylvania Autism
Needs Assessment (PANA), in which information about employment and
transportation use was obtained from autistic adults who were residents
of Pennsylvania. The study sample included 1120 autistic adults (M-age =
28.03 years, standard deviation = 9.84; 70\% men; 82\% non-Hispanic
White).Results: Participants who were employed were more likely to drive
themselves than those who were unemployed (45\% vs. 21\%, p < 0.001),
while they were less likely to take rides from others (62\% vs. 75\%, p
< 0.001) or use service transportation (11\% vs. 18\%, p = 0.001). For
barriers to public transit, the results identified that employed
participants reported fewer barriers to public transportation than
unemployed participants with a small effect size (1.98 vs. 2.54, d =
0.22).Conclusion: Employed autistic adults exercise more transportation
independence. Unemployed autistic adults report more barriers to
participation and lower ability to independently use public
transportation. Future transportation and employment studies are
necessary.},

Abstract = {BackgroundLittle is known about the wellbeing and aspirations of
Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples living in social housing.
Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples living in social housing
face common social housing challenges of low income, higher incidence of
mental health issues and poorer health along with specific challenges
due to the impacts of colonisation and its ongoing manifestations in
racism and inequity. A greater understanding of social and emotional
wellbeing needs and aspirations is essential in informing the provision
of appropriate support.MethodsSurveys of social and emotional wellbeing
(SEWB) were completed by 95 Aboriginal people aged 16 years and older
living in Aboriginal Housing Victoria social housing in 2021. The survey
addressed a range of domains reflecting social and emotional wellbeing,
as defined by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.ResultsMost
respondents demonstrated a strong sense of identity and connection to
family however 26\% reported having 6 or more health conditions. Ill
health and disability were reported to be employment barriers for almost
a third of people (32\%). Improving health and wellbeing (78\%) was the
most cited aspiration. Experiences of racism and ill health influenced
engagement with organisations and correspondingly education and
employment.ConclusionStrong connections to identity, family and culture
in Aboriginal peoples living in social housing coexist along with
disrupted connections to mind, body and community. Culturally safe and
appropriate pathways to community services and facilities can enhance
these connections. Research aimed at evaluating the impact of
strengths-based interventions that focus on existing strong connections
will be important in understanding whether this approach is effective in
improving SEWB in this population.Trial Registration: This trial was

Journal = {GLOBAL CHANGE BIOLOGY BIOENERGY},
Year = {2020},
Volume = {12},
Number = {7},
Pages = {464-475},
Month = {JUL},
Abstract = {Biomass value chains for energy, fuels and bio-based products involve
complex, cross sector interactions between their upstream and downstream
stages. Overarching policymaking to date has included the use of biomass
to deliver sector specific aims (e.g. climate change, energy, etc.)
however, this is mostly planned without adjusting support across the
most challenging stages of biomass value chains and exploiting specific
advantages related to their geographic settings (e.g. domestic
feedstocks, local markets, etc.). Policies to date have, therefore,
resulted in fragmented, suboptimal biomass use and debates for
sustainability and resource efficiency. This opinion paper arose from
the project Strategic Initiative for Resource Efficient Biomass Policies
Funded by the EU Commission. It discusses the development of a dedicated
Biomass Policy Framework which applies the principles of value chain
analysis in policy design to enable the market uptake of sustainable,
domestic, resource efficient biomass solutions. Firstly, it explains how
to provide context by identifying value chains which can offer
competitive advantages for biomass mobilization, market infrastructures,
rural and economic development within their geographic setting. Then the
work builds on the context and prioritized value chains and further
rationalizes policy needs and aims within individual value chain stages.
This is done by identifying policy-related challenges and gaps that
constrain sustainable and resource efficient deployment of the selected
value chains. Also, it suggests policy interventions that will overcome
challenges, resolve gaps and as a result mobilize local biomass and
improve market uptake. Finally, it discusses the contrasting paradigms
for biomass policy formation within single sector target setting and the
value chain approach of the Biomass Policy Framework and uses the case
of low carbon biomass heat to illustrate the strengths of the suggested
approach. The paper concludes with remarks for the concept of biomass
value chain analysis in policy.},

Title = {Contesting restrictive mobility norms among female mentors implementing
a sport based programme for young girls in a Mumbai slum},
Journal = {BMC PUBLIC HEALTH},
Year = {2018},
Volume = {18},
Month = {APR 10},
Abstract = {Background: Harmful gender norms are known structural barriers to many
public health and development interventions involving adolescent girls.
In India, restrictions on girls' liberty to move freely in public spaces
contribute to school dropout and early marriage, and negatively affect
girls' health and wellbeing, from adolescence into adulthood. We report
on mechanisms of change among female mentors 18 to 24 years old who
contested discriminatory norms while implementing a sports-based
programme for adolescent girls in a Mumbai slum.
Methods: We adopted a prospective qualitative research design. Our
analysis is based on case studies derived from two rounds of face to
face, in -depth interviews with 10 young women recruited to serve as
mentors for the project's young female athletes. We combined both
thematic and narrative analysis.
Results: The programme created opportunities for collective action,
increasing mentors' ability to think and relate in a collectivized
manner, and challenged the traditional female identity constructed for
young women, which centres on domestic duties. The mentors themselves
negotiated freedoms both in and outside their homes, which required
careful and strategic bargaining. They changed the nature of key
day-to-day social interactions with parents and brothers, as well as
with neighbours, parents of their groups of athletes and men on the
streets. They formed a new reference group for each other in terms of
what was possible and acceptable. Demonstrating greater negotiation
skills within the family helped win parents' trust in the mentor's
ability to be safe in public spaces. Parents became active supporters by
not giving into social sanctions of neighbours and relatives thus
co-producing a new identity for their daughters as respectable young
women doing `good work'. They effectively side stepped reputational risk
with their presence in public spaces becoming de-sexualised.
Conclusions: Mentors contested mobility restrictions by taking risks as
a group first, with collective agency an important step towards greater
individual agency. This research provides important insights into
addressing embedded social norms that perpetuate gender discriminatory
practices and the social patterning of health inequalities.},

Title = {Interprofessional collaboration and barriers among health and social
workers caring for older adults: a Philippine case study},
Journal = {HUMAN RESOURCES FOR HEALTH},
Year = {2021},
Volume = {19},
Number = {1},
Month = {APR 19},
Abstract = {Background There is limited information on how the barriers to
interprofessional collaboration (IPC) across various professionals,
organizations, and care facilities influence the health and welfare of
older adults. This study aimed to describe the status of IPC practices
among health and social workers providing care for older adults in the
Philippines; investigate the perceived barriers to its implementation
and perceived effects on geriatric care; and identify possible solutions
to address the barriers limiting collaborative practice. Methods A case
study approach was utilized employing 12 semi-structured in-depth
interviews and 29 focus group discussions with care workers from
selected primary health care units, public and private hospitals, and
nursing homes that are directly involved in geriatric care delivery in
two cities in the Philippines. Overall, 174 health and social workers
consented to participate in this study. All interviews were
audio-recorded and transcribed verbatim. An inductive thematic analysis
using NVivo 12 (R) was used to identify and categorize relevant thematic
codes. Results Interprofessional geriatric care provided by health and
social workers was observed to be currently limited to ad hoc
communications typically addressing only administrative concerns. This
limitation is imposed by a confluence of barriers such as personal
values and beliefs, organizational resource constraints, and a silo
system care culture which practitioners say negatively influences care
delivery. This in turn results in inability of care providers to access
adequate care information, as well as delays and renders inaccessible
available care provided to vulnerable older adults. Uncoordinated care
of older adults also led to reported inefficient duplication and overlap
of interventions. Conclusion Geriatric care workers fear such barriers
may aggravate the increasing unmet needs of older adults. In order to
address these potential negative outcomes, establishing a clear and
committed system of governance that includes IPC is perceived as
necessary to install a cohesive service delivery mechanism and provide
holistic care for older adults. Future studies are needed to measure the
effects of identified barriers on the potential of IPC to facilitate an
integrated health and social service delivery system for the improvement
of quality of life of older adults in the Philippines.},

Title = {`Doing the hard yards': carer and provider focus group perspectives of
accessing Aboriginal childhood disability services},
Journal = {BMC HEALTH SERVICES RESEARCH},
Year = {2013},
Volume = {13},
Month = {AUG 19},
Abstract = {Background: Despite a high prevalence of disability, Aboriginal
Australians access disability services in Australia less than
non-Aboriginal Australians with a disability. The needs of Aboriginal
children with disability are particularly poorly understood. They can
endure long delays in treatment which can impact adversely on
development. This study sought to ascertain the factors involved in
accessing services and support for Aboriginal children with a
disability.
Methods: Using the focus group method, two community forums, one for
health and service providers and one for carers of Aboriginal children
with a disability, were held at an Aboriginal Community Controlled
Health Service (ACCHS) in the Sydney, metropolitan area of New South
Wales, Australia. Framework analysis was applied to qualitative data to
elucidate key issues relevant to the dimensions of access framework.
Independent coding consistency checks were performed and consensus of
analysis verified by the entire research team, several of whom
represented the local Aboriginal community.
Results: Seventeen health and social service providers representing
local area government and non-government-funded health and social
service organisations and five carers participated in two separate
forums between September and October 2011. Lack of awareness of services
and inadequate availability were prominent concerns in both groups
despite geographic proximity to a major metropolitan area with
significant health infrastructure. Carers noted racism, insufficient or
non-existent services, and the need for an enhanced role of ACCHSs and
AHWs in disability support services. Providers highlighted logistical
barriers and cultural and historical issues that impacted on the
effectiveness of mainstream services for Aboriginal people.
Conclusions: Despite dedicated disability services in an urban
community, geographic proximity does not mitigate lack of awareness and
availability of support. This paper has enumerated a number of
considerations to address provision of disability services in an urban
Australian Aboriginal community including building expertise and
specialist capacity within Aboriginal Health Worker positions and
services.
Increasing awareness of services, facilitating linkages and referrals,
eliminating complexities to accessing support, and working with families
and Aboriginal community organisations within a framework of resilience
and empowerment to ensure a relevant and acceptable model are necessary
steps to improving support and care for Aboriginal children with a
disability.},

Title = {Bridging the gap between pragmatic intervention design and theory: using
behavioural science tools to modify an existing quality improvement
programme to implement ``Sepsis Six{''}},
Journal = {IMPLEMENTATION SCIENCE},
Year = {2016},
Volume = {11},
Month = {FEB 3},
Abstract = {Background: Sepsis has a mortality rate of 40 \%, which can be halved if
the evidence-based ``Sepsis Six{''} care bundle is implemented within 1
h. UK audit shows low implementation rates. Interventions to improve
this have had minimal effects. Quality improvement programmes could be
further developed by using theoretical frameworks (Theoretical Domains
Framework (TDF)) to modify existing interventions by identifying
influences on clinical behaviour and selecting appropriate content. The
aim of this study was to illustrate using this process to modify an
intervention designed using plan-do-study-act (P-D-S-A) cycles that had
achieved partial success in improving Sepsis Six implementation in one
hospital.
Methods: Factors influencing implementation were investigated using the
TDF to analyse interviews with 34 health professionals. The nursing team
who developed and facilitated the intervention used the data to select
modifications using the Behaviour Change Technique (BCT) Taxonomy (v1)
and the APEASE criteria: affordability, practicability, effectiveness,
acceptability, safety and equity.
Results: Five themes were identified as influencing implementation and
guided intervention modification. These were:(1) ``knowing what to do
and why{''} (TDF domains knowledge, social/professional role and
identity); (2) ``risks and benefits{''} (beliefs about consequences), e.
g. fear of harming patients through fluid overload acting as a barrier
to implementation versus belief in the bundle's effectiveness acting as
a lever to implementation; (3) ``working together{''} (social
influences, social/professional role and identity), e. g. team
collaboration acting as a lever versus doctor/nurse conflict acting as a
barrier; (4) ``empowerment and support{''} (beliefs about capabilities,
social/professional role and identity, behavioural regulation, social
influences), e. g. involving staff in intervention development acting as
a lever versus lack of confidence to challenge colleagues' decisions not
to implement acting as a barrier; (5) ``staffing levels{''}
(environmental context and resources), e. g. shortages of doctors at
night preventing implementation. The modified intervention included six
new BCTs and consisted of two additional components (Sepsis Six training
for the Hospital at Night Co-ordinator; a partnership agreement
endorsing engagement of all clinical staff and permitting collegial
challenge) and modifications to two existing components (staff education
sessions; documents and materials).
Conclusions: This work demonstrates the feasibility of the TDF and BCT
Taxonomy (v1) for developing an existing quality improvement
intervention. The tools are compatible with the pragmatic P-D-S-A cycle
approach generally used in quality improvement work.},

Title = {Intersectoral collaboration for people-centred mental health care in
Timor-Leste: a mixed-methods study using qualitative and social network
analysis},
Journal = {INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF MENTAL HEALTH SYSTEMS},
Year = {2019},
Volume = {13},
Number = {1},
Month = {NOV 16},
Abstract = {Background Intersectoral collaboration is fundamental to the provision
of people-centred mental health care, yet there is a dearth of research
about how this strategy operates within mental health systems in low-
and middle-income countries. This is problematic given the known
attitudinal, structural and resource barriers to intersectoral
collaboration in high-income country mental health systems. This study
was conducted to investigate intersectoral collaboration for
people-centred mental health care in Timor-Leste, a South-East Asian
country in the process of strengthening its mental health system.
Methods This study employed a mixed-methods convergent design.
Qualitative data elicited from in-depth interviews with 85 key
stakeholders and document review were complemented with quantitative
social network analysis to assess understandings of, the strength and
structure of intersectoral collaboration in the Timorese mental health
system. Results There was consensus among stakeholder groups that
intersectoral collaboration for mental health is important in
Timor-Leste. Despite resource restrictions discussed by participants,
interview data and social network analysis revealed evidence of
information and resource sharing among organisations working within the
health and social (disability and violence support) sectors in
Timor-Leste (network density = 0.55 and 0.30 for information and
resource sharing, respectively). Contrary to the assumption that mental
health services and system strengthening are led by the Ministry of
Health, the mixed-methods data sources identified a split in stewardship
for mental health between subnetworks in the health and social sectors
(network degree centralisation = 0.28 and 0.47 for information and
resource sharing, respectively). Conclusions Overall, the findings
suggest that there may be opportunities for intersectoral collaborations
in mental health systems in LMICs which do not exist in settings with
more formalised mental health systems such as HICs. Holistic
understandings of health and wellbeing, and a commitment to working
together in the face of resource restrictions suggest that intersectoral
collaboration can be employed to achieve people-centred mental health
care in Timor-Leste.},

Title = {Is cooperativism helping to keep the population in Andalusia?},
Journal = {CIRIEC-ESPANA REVISTA DE ECONOMIA PUBLICA SOCIAL Y COOPERATIVA},
Year = {2019},
Volume = {97},
Pages = {49-74},
Month = {NOV},
Abstract = {Rationale and current interest in topic
Rural areas in Andalusia present clear disadvantages as compared to
urban areas, such as lack of infrastructure, scarcity of basic services
or lack of economic dynamics, causing a rural exodus and thus giving
rise to territorial imbalances in the region. This rural exodus, in
turn, has a limiting influence on the generation of economic dynamics,
resulting in an increasingly ageing population and reducing
opportunities for territorial development.
In the face of this problem, cooperatives -societies of the social
economy- may play a significant role in terms of their capacity for
attaching a population to its territory, due to the existence of a
relationship with the surroundings in which they operate, as
demonstrated by the available literature on this topic
(Garcia-Gutierrez, 1999; Buendia and Garcia, 2003; Coque, 2005; Mozas
and Bernal, 2006; Cunat and Coll, 2007; Puentes and Velasco, 2009; Calvo
and Gonzalez, 2011; Demoustier, 2011; Draperi, 2014; Guzman, Santos and
Barroso, 2016; Perez and Valiente, 2017).
Moreover, there is significant cooperativism in this region (with 19\%
of cooperatives and 18\% of the employment these generate nationwide
located in Andalusia) as well as consolidated institutional recognition
of these organisations (as evinced by the laws which regulate them, as
well as by the Pactos Andaluces por la Economia Social {[}Andalusia
Agreements for the Social Economy] or by the various support programs
for cooperative organisations).This represents an opportunity for the
creation of economic dynamics and for attaching the population to its
territory through the promotion of social economy societies.
Objectives
The main objective of this work consists in determining whether
cooperative societies in Andalusia may be contributing to the
maintenance of the region's population, especially in rural areas, to a
greater extent than mercantile businesses.
In addition to confirming whether this occurs throughout the entire
population, we have separated out the populations of women and young
people, due to the difficulties currently faced by these groups in
joining the labour market (the main reason for emigration, especially in
rural areas) and to their strategic interest in terms of consolidating
the region's population, passing the inter-generational torch in local
economic activities.
A comparison of cooperative societies with mercantile businesses is
carried out in order to lay the foundations for the establishment of
strategies and policies for the specific promotion of cooperativism, in
the event that the behaviour seen in these social economy organisations
differs from that of mercantile businesses.
Methodology
In working towards the stated objective, and after an exploratory
analysis of the variables used, spatial econometrics techniques were
applied which take into account the location of the data in a given
geographic space for the variables under study: spatial distribution and
autocorrelation analysis graph-sand the application of spatial
regression. Calculation of the models was carried out with GeoDa
software.
With respect to the variables used, these were the following: percentage
of total emigration, percentage of emigration of young people and
percentage of emigration of women were considered as dependent, proxy
variables for the attachment of population to territory; the number of
cooperatives out of the total number of businesses was established, as
well as the number of mercantile businesses (public limited companies
and limited liability companies) out of the total number of businesses,
expressed as percentages, served as explanatory variables. These
variables were obtained for the various Andalusian municipalities (a
total of 770) for 2015. In addition, for the purpose of determining
whether differences exist in emigration between rural and non-rural
municipalities, a dummy variable was added, termed rural municipality or
territory.
Results, practical conclusions and research limitations
The results obtained provide indications that cooperativism may be
contributing to an attachment of the population to its territory (as
compared to mercantile businesses, where a significant relationship was
not seen), since the regression analyses demonstrated that the variable
for percentage of cooperative societies is significant in explaining the
variability seen in emigration. Moreover, both show an inverse
relationship. The same was obtained when the said dependent variables
used were percentage of emigration of women and young people. In other
words, the proportion of cooperatives inversely influence these
emigration rates, which is not the case for mercantile businesses.
Based on the aforementioned and given that, on the one hand,
difficulties in attaching a population to its territory are further
complicated in rural Andalusian municipalities, especially for women and
young people and, on the other hand, cooperativism inversely influences
emigration from rural municipalities, the creation of quality,
sustainable employment through cooperatives societies of social economy-
may represent an opportunity for reducing problems of depopulation in
these areas.
Another result obtained is that the cooperative business culture may be
spread to neighbouring regions to a lesser extent than that of the
conventional business sector. If cooperativism can contribute to an
attachment of population to territory, the application of specific
policies and strategies for reducing emigration from rural areas
-promoting the development of cooperative societies for the creation of
quality, sustainable employment and thus spreading cooperative culture
to a greater extent-becomes at once a challenge and an opportunity for
Andalusia. From another perspective, business synergies between
cooperativism and conventional businesses may be encouraged, making the
most of the opportunity offered by the latter for spreading their
culture to neighbouring regions to a greater degree than cooperativism.
In this way, spreading the principles and values of cooperativism in the
Andalusian region can be achieved at the same time as contributing to an
attachment of population to territory, through a potential business
inter-cooperation.
Among the conclusions drawn, one also finds the need to carry out
specific strategies and policies for promoting cooperativism in
Andalusia, derived from results showing more heterogeneous behaviour in
the region than seen in the conventional business sector.
With regard to the limitations of this work, it should be noted that, in
the first place, the analysis carried out is static in nature, based on
specific moment in time (the year 2015), which represents a limitation
for analysing the evolutionary dynamic followed by both cooperatives
societies and emigration in Andalusia. In the second place, percentage
of emigration was taken as a proxy or indicative variable, with respect
to the difficulty in attaching a population to its territory. However,
the presence of other factors must be taken into account: it may be that
the percentage of emigration is low or null as a result of considerable
ageing in the population, such that depopulation or difficulty in
attaching population to territory would be caused, rather, by a lack of
demographic growth.
This work has established a number of future lines of research stemming
in part from the very limitations indicated above, among which are the
analysis of the evolutionary dynamic between cooperativism and
emigration for the purpose of identifying the relationship these have
followed over time; as well as consideration of other factors indicating
capacity for attaching population to territory, such as the previously
mentioned rate of demographic growth.},

Title = {Socioeconomic inequalities in mental health in Australia: Explaining
life shock exposure},
Journal = {HEALTH POLICY},
Year = {2020},
Volume = {124},
Number = {1},
Pages = {97-105},
Month = {JAN},
Abstract = {Background: Recent research suggests that there exists a strong link
between life shocks and mental health. However, research on the
distributional aspects of these shocks on mental health status is
limited. In the health inequality literature no Australian studies have
examined this relationship.
Objective: This study examines the distributional impact of life shocks
(negative life events and financial hardships) on mental health
inequality among different socioeconomic groups in a longitudinal
setting in Australia.
Methods: This study analysed the data of 13,496 individuals from the
Household, Income and Labour Dynamics in Australia (HILDA) survey, waves
12-17 (2012-2017). Using concentration index and Blinder-Oaxaca
approaches, the study decomposed socioeconomic inequalities in mental
health and changes in inequalities in mental health over the study
period. The study used frailty indices to capture the severity of life
shocks experienced by an individual.
Results: The results suggest that exposure to just one life shock will
result in a greater risk of mental disorder in the most disadvantaged
socioeconomic groups. The results also indicate that 24.7\%-40.5\% of
pro-rich socioeconomic mental health inequality are due to life shocks.
Financial hardship shocks contributes to 21.6\%-35.4\% of inequality
compared with 2.3\%-5.4\% inequality generated by negative life event
shocks across waves.
Conclusions: Lower SES groups experience more life shocks than higher
SES groups and in turn generate higher socioeconomic mental health
inequality. Policies aimed at reducing socioeconomic inequality in
mental health should account for these shocks when designing
interventions. (C) 2019 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.},

Title = {The open science project in an unequal world},
Journal = {RELACIONES INTERNACIONALES-MADRID},
Year = {2022},
Number = {50},
Pages = {163-181},
Month = {JUN-SEP},
Abstract = {UNESCO's Open Science Recommendation, approved last November, proposes
to promote a global consensus on its values and actions. The pillars of
openness proposed by this project are: open scientific infrastructures,
dialogue with different knowledge systems, as well as engagement with
different social sectors, namely citizen and participatory science. The
five main manifestations of open science are: open access to scientific
publications, open access to research data, open educational resources,
open software and hardware. However, in order to create an enabling
policy environment for open science, the Recommendation calls for the
promotion of responsible research evaluation practices that encourage
quality science, recognising the diversity of results and stimulating
the different missions of the university. Promoting a culture of open
science is a complex task that requires integrated information systems
to understand, promote and evaluate the universe of research outputs and
activities. For this reason, one of the main concerns raised in this
Recommendation is that, even with its good intentions, open science
could widen the gap between technologically advanced countries and
poorer countries with precarious digital infrastructure.Thus, the
unilateral growth of open science platforms in dominant countries would
not only increase inequalities in access to science, but also enable
different forms of exaction of data or commercial use of the efforts
made in the periphery. The dominant role played by English as
interoperable code also increases the existing asymmetries, putting at
risk multillingualism and bibliodiversity that are critical for the
equitable advancement of science.
The Open Science movement emerged from the scientific community and has
spread rapidly throughout the different nations, demanding the opening
of the doors of knowledge. Academics, publishers, librarians, students,
officials and citizens are joining this call. In this work we analyze
the progress in terms of open access in non-hegemonic countries, as well
as its obstacles and asymmetries. In Latin America, progress has been
made in collaborative infrastructures, digitization processes,
repositories, editorial professionalization, national regulations and
other forms of government support. But these advances contrast with a
very incipient incidence of the incentives for open access publication
and even less for open access to research data in the systems of
categorization and promotion of researchers. The same occurs with
project financing instruments, even in countries with a national open
access law, where it is observed that the impact factor of publications
continues to define successful projects and there are practically no
evaluation criteria that weight open science. At tenure and
categorization systems for researchers, there is still a predominance of
global criteria of excellence and university rankings, which reveals a
sort of alienation between government efforts at the service of
noncommercial open access and the evaluation systems still anchored in
the laws of the prestige industry created by the publishing oligopolies.
This also explains that despite the regional development of indexing
systems that guarantee the academic quality of the published production,
Latin American journals, the vast majority of which are diamond access,
still encounter many difficulties in gaining legitimacy in the academic
community.
The paper addresses the vital importance to advance in the integration
of information systems and repositories in CRIS systems, delving on the
particular relevance of the Norwegian model, to promote the shift
towards a comprehensive evaluation. These services are the unique mean
to includes all local scientific production, in all languages and
formats,while rewarding open science practices. The pilot experiences of
Brazil and Peru analyzed in this paper shows that compared to
institutional CRIS, the national CRIS have a great starting complexity,
but they foster a true integration of all the universities and
organizations. And for those institutions that develop an institutional
CRIS with software and interoperable links in the public domain, they
will be able to integrate decisively to strengthen these national
scientific information systems and will use its benefits for their own
needs. The fact that the Latin American CRIS pilot projects are national
and not institutional, as in Europe, is due to the way in which the
databases and information systems are financed. Most of the universities
that contribute to scientific and technological research in the region
are public and participate in national information systems. Given their
reliance on public funds, these institutions rarely have the resources
to finance an institutional CRIS system, much less purchase it as a
package from the large companies that offer these services. It also
contributes in this direction that the CRIS pilots appear in the public
domain, which will be a strength in the medium and long term. Open
software such as dSPACE, used as the basis of the platform in Peru, for
example, guarantees that scientific information contributes to
fulfilling the promise of open science, but at the same time offers a
fruitful path to repatriate data and fight against asymmetries in the
circulation of knowledge produced.
The paper addresses broadly the structural inequalities affecting low-
and middle-income countries, pointing out the main asymmetries that
condition open science pathways in the global South.The first part
describes the global endowment of repositories, integrated scientific
information systems and scientific journals. The second part focuses on
the experience of Latin America, which has a collaborative
infrastructure that has been developing since the 1950s, but still faces
major challenges in making the transition from open access to open
science. Finally, it discusses the critical role of evaluation systems
in the region to produce a transformation of the magnitude of open
science, without giving up sovereignty and social anchoring.},

Abstract = {Modern teaching in higher education, which include the integration of
ICT in the study process or the relocation of a specific part of the
study activities to online, i.e. virtual learning environments are no
longer uncommon in the Slovenian higher education. The reasons for this
are different, and teachers substantiate them primarily by improving the
quality of the teaching process, motivating students, and improving
student outcomes. Research into virtual communities and the processes of
developing these communities in virtual learning environments is a
relatively new area of research in HE. The beginnings of a more
systematic examination of the area go back to the 90s and mostly dealt
the concept of social presence in the virtual environment and its
influence on learning processes and outcomes (Gunawardena in Zittle
1997). The findings of these and other studies confirm the assumption
that the key to successful learning in virtual learning environments is
developing effective (learning) communities. In this article, the theory
of the Community of Inquiry (CoI), developed in 1999 by Garrison,
Anderson and Archer (2000), will be presented as one of the most famous
models for understanding learning in the virtual environment. The CoI
model assumes that effective communication in a virtual environment is
not merely a consequence of the working of cognitive factors and the
teacher's interventions; instead, the social aspect is equally
important, which means that effective e-education requires the existence
of a community. In this article, we will focus on the characteristics of
virtual learning environments, their advantages and weaknesses and try
to formulate an answer to the question whether the CoI model could be
employed as a method to encourage collaborative learning in the virtual
learning environment and describe the determinants that enable such
learning.},

Title = {Factors influencing performance of health workers in the management of
seriously sick children at a Kenyan tertiary hospital - participatory
action research},
Journal = {BMC HEALTH SERVICES RESEARCH},
Year = {2014},
Volume = {14},
Month = {FEB 7},
Abstract = {Background: Implementation of World Health Organization case management
guidelines for serious childhood illnesses remains a challenge in
hospitals in low-income countries. Facilitators of and barriers to
implementation of locally adapted clinical practice guidelines (CPGs)
have not been explored.
Methods: This ethnographic study based on the theory of participatory
action research (PAR) was conducted in Kenyatta National Hospital,
Kenya's largest teaching hospital. The primary intervention consisted of
dissemination of locally adapted CPGs. The PRECEDE-PROCEED health
education model was used as the conceptual framework to guide and
examine further reinforcement activities to improve the uptake of the
CPGs. Activities focussed on introduction of routine clinical audits and
tailored educational sessions. Data were collected by a participant
observer who also facilitated the PAR over an eighteen-month period.
Naturalistic inquiry was utilized to obtain information from all
hospital staff encountered while theoretical sampling allowed in-depth
exploration of emerging issues. Data were analysed using interpretive
description.
Results: Relevance of the CPGs to routine work and emergence of a
champion of change facilitated uptake of best-practices. Mobilization of
basic resources was relatively easily undertaken while activities that
required real intellectual and professional engagement of the senior
staff were a challenge. Accomplishments of the PAR were largely with the
passive rather than active involvement of the hospital management.
Barriers to implementation of best-practices included i) mismatch
between the hospital's vision and reality, ii) poor communication, iii)
lack of objective mechanisms for monitoring and evaluating quality of
clinical care, iv) limited capacity for planning strategic change, v)
limited management skills to introduce and manage change, vi)
hierarchical relationships, and vii) inadequate adaptation of the
interventions to the local context.
Conclusions: Educational interventions, often regarded as ` quick-fixes'
to improve care in low-income countries, may be necessary but are
unlikely to be sufficient to deliver improved services. We propose that
an understanding of organizational issues that influence the behaviour
of individual health professionals should guide and inform the
implementation of best-practices.},

Inequalities in an Indian District},

Number = {6},
Pages = {2310-2321},
Month = {FEB 14},
Abstract = {Health and livelihood impacts from ambient air pollution among
populations in developing countries are disproportional. These
disparities are often overlooked due to a lack of information on
microlevel emission data, especially in smaller cities and rural areas.
The current work in an Indian district, Saharanpur, proposes the use of
novel data sets to estimate microlevel emissions from air-polluting
infrastructure sectors in urban and rural areas for use in pollutant
transport models. Health impacts estimated based on the surface PM2.5
concentration suggest that the rate of premature deaths is 158 (95\% CI:
122- 163) and 143 (95\% CI: 65-151) deaths per 100 000 people in urban
and rural areas, respectively. Sixty-eight percent of the 6372 (95\% CI:
3321-6987) annual premature deaths occurs in rural areas. Depicting
higher contribution-exposure disparities among socioeconomic groups, the
study observed that compared to their contribution to air pollution, low
socioeconomic status (SES) groups in the region experience 6,7, 7, and
26\% more premature deaths from PM2.5 exposure for industries, household
cooking fuel burning, open waste burning, and transportation,
respectively. The majority of disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) in
the study domain are observed in economically weaker worker categories.
Reduced income due to the loss of these life years will significantly
impact these groups due to their dependence on daily wages for basic
life necessities. Microlevel pollution mitigation policies with a focus
on these inequalities are critical for promoting environmental equity
and justice.},

older patients in hospital: A cross-sectional survey},
Journal = {JOURNAL OF ADVANCED NURSING},
Year = {2022},
Volume = {78},
Number = {11},

Month = {NOV},
Abstract = {Background Preventable harms during hospitalization pose a major
challenge for health systems globally. Nurse-led strategies provide
comprehensive harm prevention to keep the most vulnerable patients safe
in hospital, but gaps in care are common. Nursing roles and activities
to prevent harm to patients during acute hospitalization are poorly
understood. Aim The aim of this study was to identify nurses' perceived
enablers and barriers to the implementation of comprehensive harm
prevention for older people admitted to an acute hospital setting.
Design Anonymous, online, cross-sectional survey. Methods The adapted
Influences on Patient Safety Behaviours Questionnaire (IPSBQ) was used
to collect data from nurses working on five general medicine wards
across three hospitals of a single tertiary health service in Australia
in 2019. Participants also rated their perceptions of overall quality of
care, missed care and awareness of strategies for an eight-factor
framework for comprehensive harm prevention. The STROBE reporting
checklist was used. Results Ward response rates between 35\% and 58\%
resulted in 132 complete questionnaires for analyses. High mean scores
for behavioural regulation (3.28), beliefs about capabilities (2.96) and
environmental context and resources (2.73) indicated these domains were
perceived by nurses as enablers. Low mean scores for the domains of
intentions (1.65), beliefs about consequences (1.69), optimism (1.72)
and professional role and identity (1.85) indicated these were barriers
to comprehensive harm prevention by nurses. High perceived quality of
care (scored 9-10/10) (p = .024), and awareness of strategies for the
eight-factor framework (p = .019) were significant enablers of
comprehensive harm prevention. Conclusion Targeted evidence-based
strategies that include education, persuasion, incentivization, coercion
and modelling would be most useful for promoting comprehensive harm
prevention by nurses. However, to be most effective the harm prevention
strategy may need to be tailored for each ward.},

Title = {Increasing the availability of health workers in rural sub-Saharan
Africa: a scoping review of rural pipeline programmes},
Journal = {HUMAN RESOURCES FOR HEALTH},
Year = {2023},
Volume = {21},
Number = {1},
Month = {MAR 14},
Abstract = {IntroductionRural pipeline approach has recently gain prominent
recognition in improving the availability of health workers in
hard-to-reach areas such as rural and poor regions. Understanding
implications for its successful implementation is important to guide
health policy and decision-makers in Sub-Saharan Africa. This review
aims to synthesize the evidence on rural pipeline implementation and
impacts in sub-Saharan Africa.MethodsWe conducted a scoping review using
Joanna Briggs Institute guidebook. We searched in PubMed and Google
scholar databases and the grey literature. We conducted a thematic
analysis to assess the studies. Data were reported following the PRISMA
extension for Scoping reviews guidelines.ResultsOf the 443 references
identified through database searching, 22 met the inclusion criteria.
Rural pipeline pillars that generated impacts included ensuring that
more rural students are selected into programmes; developing a
curriculum oriented towards rural health and rural exposure during
training; curriculum oriented to rural health delivery; and ensuring
retention of health workers in rural areas through educational and
professional support. These impacts varied from one pillar to another
and included: increased in number of rural health practitioners;
reduction in communication barriers between healthcare providers and
community members; changes in household economic and social
circumstances especially for students from poor family; improvement of
health services quality; improved health education and promotion within
rural communities; and motivation of community members to enrol their
children in school. However, implementation of rural pipeline resulted
in some unintended impacts such as perceived workload increased by
trainee's supervisors; increased job absenteeism among senior health
providers; patients' discomfort of being attended by students; perceived
poor quality care provided by students which influenced health
facilities attendance. Facilitating factors of rural pipeline
implementation included: availability of learning infrastructures in
rural areas; ensuring students' accommodation and safety; setting no age
restriction for students applying for rural medical schools; and
appropriate academic capacity-building programmes for medical students.
Implementation challenges included poor preparation of rural health
training schools' candidates; tuition fees payment; limited access to
rural health facilities for students training; inadequate living and
working conditions; and perceived discrimination of rural health
workers.ConclusionThis review advocates for combined implementation of
rural pipeline pillars, taking into account the specificity of country
context. Policy and decision-makers in sub-Saharan Africa should extend
rural training programmes to involve nurses, midwives and other allied
health professionals. Decision-makers in sub-Saharan Africa should also
commit more for improving rural living and working environments to
facilitate the implementation of rural health workforce development
programmes.},

Title = {Marriage protection and marriage selection - Prospective evidence for
reciprocal effects of marital status and health},
Journal = {SOCIAL SCIENCE \& MEDICINE},
Year = {1996},
Volume = {43},
Number = {1},
Pages = {113-123},
Month = {JUL},
Abstract = {Married adults are generally healthier than unmarried adults. It has
been hypothesized that marriage is associated with good health because
marriage has beneficial effects on health (marriage protection effects)
and/or because healthier individuals are more likely to marry and to
stay married (marriage selection effects). To investigate these
hypotheses, this study analyzes prospective panel data for a large
national sample of women in the U.S. (the National Longitudinal Surveys
of Young Women). The women were aged 24-34 yr at the beginning of two
successive five-year follow-up intervals.
Analyses of the prospective data indicate that there were significant
marriage protection effects, but only among women who were not employed.
Specifically, for women who were not employed, married women had better
health trends than unmarried women in each follow-up interval. It
appears that marriage had beneficial effects on health for women who did
not have a job which could provide an alternative source of financial
resources and social support.
In addition, analyses of the prospective data provide limited evidence
for marriage selection effects. Specifically, women who had better
health initially were more likely to marry and less likely to experience
marital dissolution, but only for women who were not employed full-time
and only during the first follow-up interval.
Thus, the prospective evidence suggests that, for women who were not
employed, both marriage protection and marriage selection effects
contributed to the marital status differential in health observed in
cross-sectional data. In contrast, neither marriage protection nor
marriage selection effects were observed for women who were employed
full-time. As would be expected, the cross-sectional data show that
marital status differentials in health were large and highly significant
for women who were not employed, whereas marital status differentials in
health were much smaller and often not significant for employed women.
Women who were neither married nor employed had particularly poor
health. Additional evidence indicates that the women who were neither
married nor employed suffered from multiple interacting disadvantages,
including poor health, low incomes, and sociodemographic characteristics
which contributed to difficulty in obtaining employment. Copyright (C)

Title = {Barriers and facilitators of domain-specific physical activity: a
systematic review of reviews},
Journal = {BMC PUBLIC HEALTH},
Year = {2022},
Volume = {22},
Number = {1},
Month = {OCT 26},
Abstract = {Background Knowing what facilitates and hinders physical activity
behaviour across domains (leisure, travel, work or education, and
household) is central for the development of actions for more active
lifestyles. Thus, the aim of this systematic review of reviews was to
summarize the evidence on barriers and facilitators of domain-specific
physical activity. Methods We included systematic reviews with or
without meta-analysis that investigated the association between
modifiable barriers and facilitators and levels of domain-specific
physical activity. Reviews published until September 2020 were retrieved
from PubMed, ISI Web of Science, Scopus, Regional Library of Medicine
(BIREME), and PsycNET, and from the reference list of selected articles.
Each review was screened by two independent reviewers for eligibility.
Data extracted from selected papers included methodological aspects
(number of primary studies, study designs, and age groups); physical
activity domains and barriers and facilitators investigated; and
direction of association. For each pair of barrier/facilitator and
domain-specific physical activity, we recorded the number of positive,
negative, and null associations reported across reviews. Quality
assessment of each systematic review was performed using the AMSTAR-2
tool. Results Forty-four systematic reviews were selected. The evidence
base was largest for leisure-time followed by travel-related physical
activity. A very small number of reviews included physical activity in
work, educational and domestic settings. Across all physical activity
domains, factors related to the built environment were more abundant in
the reviews than intra and interpersonal factors. Very consistent
positive associations were observed between a range of intrapersonal
factors and leisure-time physical activity, as well as moderately
consistent evidence of positive association for general social support
and support from family members. Evidence of moderate consistency was
found for the positive association between transport-related physical
activity and positive beliefs about consequences, walkability, and
existence of facilities that support active travel. Evidence on barriers
and facilitators for physical activity at work, educational, and
domestic settings was limited in volume and consistency. Conclusions
Efforts and resources are required to diversify and strength the
evidence base on barriers and facilitators of domain-specific physical
activity, as it is still limited and biased towards the leisure domain
and built environment factors.},

Journal = {ASIAN EDUCATION AND DEVELOPMENT STUDIES},
Year = {2021},
Volume = {10},

Pages = {5-15},
Month = {JAN 4},
Abstract = {Purpose The rapid urbanization of China brings in large number of
migrant workers coming from rural areas. With the perspective of social
integration, this study reviews the findings about economic livelihood,
social integration and health related to migrant workers since China
initiated economic reform. We show that (1) though the economic
wellbeing of migrant workers has been improved significantly after they
moved to cities, their economic standing is still lower than local
residents; (2) though there is progress of social integration between
migrant workers and local residents, conflicts and challenges due to the
competitions in employment and the sharing of community resource are
still commonly found; (3) the disadvantaged status of health is very
common among migrant workers and (4) women and the new generation in
migration have more disadvantages in the social transition. We suggest
that issues of equal rights between migrant workers and local residents
should be discussed in the future as more migrant workers intend to stay
in cities for long-term. Design/methodology/approach The methodology is
literature reviews based on the current studies about migrant, migration
and policy. The first category of literature is the research field on
China's migration and urbanization to describe the whole context of
migrant workers. The second is research field on detailed issues about
migrant workers and the last field is policy issues about the welfare
and needs among migrant workers. Findings We find that (1) though the
economic wellbeing of migrant workers has been improved significantly
after they moved to cities, their economic standing is still lower than
local residents; (2) though there are progress of social integration
between migrant workers and local residents, conflicts and challenges
due to the competitions in employment and the sharing of community
resource are still commonly found; (3) the disadvantaged status of
health is very common among migrant workers and (4) women and the new
generation in migration face more disadvantages in the social
transition. Research limitations/implications There are some limitations
in the current research: (1) the review focuses on the majority of
migrant workers to reveal the general picture about the living,
developing and rights among migrant workers, but is still lacking in
dealing with some special and disadvantaged groups. (2) More
international issues related to migrant workers should be discussed in
the future considering that China's labor market is becoming more and
more global. Social implications First, the conclusion about the
economic and social integration among migrant workers indicates that
more equal welfare services, including resident services, commence
services, medical services etc. should be included in the municipal
managements considering that Chinese cities will be the combination of
local residents and migrant residents. Second, the conclusion about the
women and children indicates that the future public services targeted at
the disadvantaged population should focus on migrant members due to the
second generation of migrant workers will be one of the mainstream
population in future China's cities. Originality/value This study gives
general views on migrant workers in current China. The findings in this
review conclude the main development and improvements among tens of
millions of migrant workers in Chinese cities.
Meanwhile, we also conclude that there are still many disadvantaged and
marginalized sub-groups in migration who are suffering from less
welfares and rights in urban lives.
More detailed and equal rights and public services should be considered
and implemented in the fast urbanization taking place.},

versus counseling and nicotine replacement therapy was recently
concluded in Klerksdorp, South Africa. In a post-trial follow-up, 23
in-depth interviews with patients and one focus group discussion with
counselors from the trial were conducted. A codebook was developed and
codes were applied to the transcripts, which were analyzed using a
thematic analysis.
Results: Barriers at the economic, social/interpersonal, and individual
levels induced stress, which hindered smoking cessation. Economic
stressors included unemployment and poverty. Social or interpersonal
stressors were lack of social support for quitting smoking and lack of
social support due to having HIV. Individual stressors were traumatic
life events. Alcohol was used to cope with stress and frequently
co-occurred with smoking. Managing cravings was a barrier unrelated to
stress. Participants proposed income and employment opportunities, group
counseling, and more frequent counseling as solutions to address
stressors at different levels. Nicotine replacement therapy was helpful
to mitigate cravings.
Conclusions: Future smoking cessation interventions need to target
barriers at multiple levels. Increasing the supply and duration of
nicotine replacement therapy may increase its effectiveness. Other
behavioral approaches such as group counseling or peer counseling could
hold promise in this setting but need to be tested for efficacy through
randomized controlled trials.
Implications: To our knowledge, this is the first qualitative study
examining barriers to smoking cessation for people living with HIV in
South Africa. Smoking is highly prevalent among people with HIV in South
Africa and cessation interventions are urgently needed. A better
understanding of barriers to smoking cessation that people with HIV face
will lead to the development of contextually appropriate interventions.
This study also provides feedback on interventions from a recently
concluded smoking cessation randomized trial and will help guide the
design of future smoking cessation trials.},

Title = {Cost of neurocysticercosis patients treated in two referral hospitals in
Mexico City, Mexico},
Journal = {TROPICAL MEDICINE \& INTERNATIONAL HEALTH},
Year = {2015},
Volume = {20},

Month = {AUG},
Abstract = {ObjectivesTo estimate annual costs related to the diagnosis, treatment
and productivity losses among patients with neurocysticercosis (NCC)
receiving treatment at two referral hospitals, the Instituto Nacional de
Neurologia y Neurocirugia (INNN) and the Hospital de Especialidades of
the Instituto Mexicano del Seguro Social (HE-IMSS), in Mexico City from
July 2007 to August 2008.
MethodsInformation on presenting clinical manifestations, diagnostic
tests, hospitalisations, surgical procedures and other treatments
received by NCC outpatients was collected from medical charts, and
supplemented by an individual questionnaire regarding productivity
losses and out-of-pocket expenses related to NCC.
ResultsThe annual average per-patient direct costs were US\$ 503 (95\%
CI: 414-592) and US\$ 438 (95\% CI: 322-571) for patients without a
history of hospitalisation and/or surgery seen at the INNN and the
HE-IMSS, respectively. These costs increased to US\$ 2506 (95\% CI:
1797-3215) and US\$ 2170 (95\% CI: 1303-3037), respectively, for
patients with a history of hospitalisation and/or surgery. The average
annual per-patient indirect costs were US\$ 246 (95\% CI: 165-324) and
US\$ 114 (95\% CI: 51-178), respectively, using minimum salary wages for
individuals not officially employed.
ConclusionsThe total annual cost for patients who had and had not been
hospitalised and/or undergone a surgical procedure for the diagnosis or
treatment of NCC corresponded to 212\% and 41\% of an annual minimum
wage salary, respectively. The disease tends to affect rural
socioeconomically disadvantaged populations and creates health
disparities and significant economic losses in Mexico.

Title = {The role of Internet in the development of future software projects},
Journal = {INTERNET RESEARCH},
Year = {2010},
Volume = {20},
Number = {1},
Pages = {72-86},
Abstract = {Purpose - The Internet has evolved, prompted in part by new Web 2.0
technologies, to become a more widespread platform for interaction,
communication, and activism. Virtual communities, or groups of people
informally bound together by shared expertise, synthesise this Internet
evolution and the Web 2.0 technology. Users increasingly want to engage
online with one another and with organisations of all kinds. These novel
Internet-based technologies dominate the new business models of the
digital economy giving companies radical new ways to harvest the talents
of innovators working outside corporate boundaries. One of the most
illustrative examples of this new trend is the Open Source Software
(OSS) projects development. This paper aims to analyse the structure and
topology of the virtual community supporting one of the most
successfully OSS projects, Linux. The objective is to provide
conclusions for being successful in the development of future virtual
communities. As companies learn to manage these virtual communities,
they will develop smarter and faster ways to create value through them.
Design/methodology/approach - The interactions of the virtual community
members of an ARM-embedded Linux project website is analysed through
social network analysis techniques. The participants' activity is
studied and some conclusions about the participation features are
obtained using the Gini coefficient. In particular, a participation
inequality behaviour or a concentration on a small number of developers
is clearly observed.
Findings - The paper deals with the guidelines that virtual communities
should follow to be successful. Results about the structure of a
successful virtual community and its time evolution are provided to
determine the mentioned guidelines.
Research limitations/implications - The research is limited to a
particular virtual community engaged with the development of the
ARM-embedded Linux OSS. Other successful virtual communities can be
analysed, and the conclusions could be compared. Anyway, the proposed
analysis methodology can be extended to other virtual communities.
Originality/value - The paper fulfils the development and features of
Internet virtual communities to be successful. Results have important
implications over the development of new software business models based
on virtual communities and open source software. Contributions about the
best organisation of virtual communities leading to a successful
development of the underlying project are presented.},

Title = {Enablers and barriers to healthy eating among hospital nurses: A
systematic review},
Journal = {INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF NURSING STUDIES},
Year = {2023},
Volume = {138},
Month = {FEB},
Abstract = {Background: Nurses are the largest health professional body globally.
Despite the significant role they play in healthcare, nurses exhibit
poor dietary habits and have high rates of chronic diseases.
Understanding the factors underlying healthy eating for nurses in the
workplace is important to implement effective interventions. Objective:
To identify enablers and barriers related to healthy eating among nurses
employed in a hospital setting.Design: A systematic literature review of
qualitative, quantitative, and mixed methods research (PROSPERO ID:
CRD42021290913).Data sources: A comprehensive systematic search was
conducted across PubMed, CINAHL, Embase, Web of Sci-ence and ProQuest
databases for papers published after January 2015.Methods: Two authors
independently screened titles and abstracts of 4139 deduplicated
studies, performed crit-ical appraisals on eligible studies using the
Mixed Methods Appraisal Tool and extracted data relevant to the
re-search question. This review includes papers that examined nurses'
eating behaviours specifically, were conducted in a hospital setting and
distinguished healthy eating from other behaviours. Data synthesis was
con-ducted through descriptive summarisation of studies and enablers and
barriers were classified according to the socio-ecological
model.Results: A total of 29 studies were identified with 8024
participants. 8 studies were qualitative, 18 quantitative, and 3 were
mixed method design. At an environmental level, barriers were high
accessibility and availability of unhealthy foods, high cost and low
availability of healthy foods and lack of storage and preparation
facilities, while an enabler was close proximity to healthy options.
Novel organisational enablers were considered roster planning which
allowed for established routines around meals, and structured workplace
programs that encour-aged improvement in health behaviours, while
barriers were shift work, inconsistent rosters and high work de-mands.
An interpersonal enabler was supportive networks while barriers were
work culture, social norms of celebrations and gifts of food from
patients. Finally, intrapersonal barriers were stress and fatigue,
personal values, beliefs, attitudes, and individual characteristics,
with the latter two also acting as enablers. Conclusions: This review
identifies the complexity and interconnectedness of enablers and
barriers to healthy eating across four domains of the socio-ecological
model. Multi-faceted strategies which address factors across several
domains are recommended for healthcare organisations to facilitate
healthy eating among nurses. Further research is needed to assess these
strategies and understand the extent to which eating behaviours can be
improved.(c) 2022 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.},

Title = {The triad: initiation, transit and consolidation versus return of women
that move from Tangier to Andalucia in a context of economic crisis},
Journal = {REVISTA DE ESTUDIOS REGIONALES},
Year = {2018},
Number = {111},
Pages = {157-180},
Month = {JAN-APR},
Abstract = {In this paper we analyze, on the one hand, the migratory process of
women from Morocco to Andalusia in a context of economic crisis. And, on
the other hand, the categories of influence in their process of social
participation. For this, we have used a qualitative methodology through
in-depth interviews. In the same way, it has been investigated in its
speeches from a longitudinal approach taking into account three key
moments in this question; the beginning, the transit and the settlement
in the consolidation versus return to the society of origin. The results
show how the expectations of women crossing the Mediterranean to reach
Spain are built and blurred, demonstrating a lack of respect for human
rights.
1. Methodology
In this work, we have not intended to measure the migratory phenomenon
but to describe its determinants and through the discourses, try to
identify the deep nature of this social reality, its relationship system
and its dynamic structure. Neither, we have not started with a
consolidated explanatory theory in scientific knowledge to, through the
deductive method, verify or refute the behavior of certain paradigms in
social reality. This has already been done successfully on occasions as
we quoted below but, based on these and starting from the reality a
migratory movement carried out by women, the present work has obtained
the necessary information for its development from the qualitative
methodology. The strategy that we carry out is oriented to discover and
understand a concrete phenomenon and this methodology is what gives
meaning to our research work. In this sense, we have carefully selected
the key informants with the intention of collecting their speech and
obtaining a broad vision of the experiences that come with the migratory
processes of Morocco women in their process of social integration in the
Autonomous Community of Andalusia.
On the other hand, understanding that the phenomenon can not be analyzed
only from the discourse of the social actors, we carry out an
ethnographic method through participant observation, culminated through
registration and observation of the social context, the way in which the
social actors in their context, the attitude of the professionals, the
public policies and norms of the context and the behaviors and attitudes
of the actors who do not intervene in the first person of the migratory
phenomenon.
Therefore, in addition to the ethnographic method, the methodology that
we have used has been qualitative, through the technique of
semi-structured interview with a sample size defined by saturation,
which reached 18 cases selected through a Sampling, given the nature of
the population under study. (Ruiz Olabuenaga, 1996).
The in-depth interviews were carried out in the city of Tangier and in
the Autonomous Community of Andalusia. The application of the in-depth
interviews to our key informants was not intended, in any case, the
statistical representation, but the socio-structural representation in
relation to the objectives of this research work.
In the same way we use two fundamental criteria when deciding who and
how many women to interview: the sampling criteria of a practical nature
and the sampling outside the control of the design.
(I). Sample criteria of a practical nature have to do with the
classification of two general types of interviewees: key and
representative.
The four questions or basic criteria that we considered in the selection
of interviewees were: (i) who has the relevant information?; (ii) who
are the most accessible women ?; (lii) who are more willing to report?
And, (iv) who are better able to communicate information more
accurately?
Other requirements were also: (i) to be knowledgeable about the object
to be investigated; (ii) that they were willing to speak, and (iii) that
they represented different points of view when different perspectives
existed on what was being studied.
(II). Sampling out of control of the design synthesized several ideas
and also had to do with the snowball procedure. Another issue to
consider is the duration and repetition of the interviews that were part
of the design tasks, some sample decisions were reviewed during the
field work. The length of each interview session ranged from about
forty-five minutes to some interviews over an hour long.
It is important to emphasize that not only is it enough to ask who and
how many women to interview, it must be considered that sufficient
interviews must be conducted so that the interviewer feels that he has
leamed everything that has to be learned and has verified these
understandings through the most knowledgeable informants and that They
deserve more confidence, from there came the principle of saturation.
We also address two important aspects in the preparation of in-depth
interviews. On the one hand, the selection of the most suitable
interviewees. And on the other hand, the decisions on the most suitable
conditions of date, place and record of the interviews.
(I). About the researcher; It is interesting to ask how they can affect
a research-interviewed interaction, since it is interviewed for research
and knowledge purposes. Some interviews specified the training and
special knowledge to make pertinent interventions in a conversational
situation not always is easy. Decisions in this regard depended on the
purposes of the study and other research contingencies.
(II). About the date, place and registration; It became necessary to
condition it to the interests of the study, combining a series of
elements, without forcing, because to that extent the success of the
interviews was largely dependent.
Regarding the evaluative criteria of the quality of the interviews, we
distinguished different groups of quality criteria applied. These
include: (i) reliability criteria; (ii) credibility criteria; (iii)
transferability; (iv) dependability; (v) authenticity and, (vi) ethical
criteria.
Likewise, a moderately alternative redefinition of the internal,
external validity and reliability standards was applied. In our opinion
we judge the credibility of the work applied for its transparency and
coherence, since the quality of the information depended to a great
extent on the collaboration of the interviewees, which entails serious
ethical obligations towards them.
In sum, the quality of the interviews applied is intrinsically related
to the characteristics of the interviewed women and the ethical
guidelines of the research. Jointly, informed consent and
confidentiality play a key role. All these are criteria that we have
taken into account in the evaluation of the quality of the interviews
applied.
Women were selected who:
1. They intended to emigrate.
2. In full transit.
3. They would have completed the migration process for two years or
less.
The categories previously selected for the analysis have been defined
through the following topics:
1. The system of attributions of the beginning of the migratory process.
2. The reception process and the contextual conditions of the receiving
society.
3. Comparative patterns of well-being in Morocco and Andalusia.
4. Expectations, desires and feelings.
5. Familiar social networks around the beginning of the migration
project.
6. Difficulties during transit.
7. Perception of the migration project itself.
8. Interference of the economic crisis in speeches.
9. Perceptions about returning to their home society.
2. The description of the methodological approach, a special condition.
Work plan and description of the phases.
The work plan developed in the different phases carried out consisted of
the following actions:
Phase I. Initial Conceptual Model.
In the first phase called the initial conceptual model, we proceeded to
review and analyze the literature related to our object of study. This
phase corresponds to the exploration and analysis of the scientific
production in the issue that concerns us and that directly links gender
and migration.
Together, we follow exhaustively the design of the model according to
Miles and Huberman, (1984) who; ``Establishes that from the categories
emerged in the bibliographic review, conclusions must be drawn up
graphically so that the relationships between the named categories are
described in detail.{''}
In this context, we note that the field work was carried out in the city
of Tangier (Morocco) and the Autonomous Community of Andalusia in the
framework of various projects for Development Cooperation of the
University of Jaen and the Spanish Agency for International Cooperation
Development (AECID)'. We resorted to using the intentional sampling
procedure that allowed us to select the subjects in the sample. The
sample was generated progressively where each subject proposed to other
people they knew.
At the same time we made use of participant observation or ethnographic
observation. Three elements of this technique were taken into account at
the time of its use; (I) social interaction, (ii) data collection
protocol, and (ii) control of information.
Phase II. Intermediate Model of Interviewees.
In this second phase of the research, we proceeded to design the
intermediate model, which starts from an empirical data, that is, from
the experience on the subject to be studied.
For this phase the interviews were structured in depth, whose questions
were revealed by key informants and interviewed women, both of whom were
intentionally selected. In order to do so, the criteria they used to
contribute relevant information to our research were taken as criteria.
In this sense, we use the snowball procedure. In this respect, the
sample frame is the meanings. That is, those of the experience emerge.
The snowball procedure allowed us to select the subjects of the sample
arbitrarily, that is, allowed us to choose Moroccan women and key
informants who presented very special characteristics. Once identified
and with the available information they were asked to locate other
members of the same study population, either by familiarity, knowledge
or ease of access. The sample was generated progressively where each
subject proposed to other people they knew.
The analysis of the interviews was performed after the transcript. The
transcripts were then sorted according to the application sequence where
the statements of the informants were taken into account. Subsequently,
a first sweep of data was made that allowed to be debugged the
information that was repeated.
In this sense, the theoretical basis of the research, the direct
experience of the researchers, the different contributions of key
professionals in this issue in Tangier and Andalusia, together with the
application of the in-depth interviews, are guarantees that allowed to
develop an exhaustive analysis Which is reflected with the development
of the present investigation.
Phase III. Final Conceptual Model.
In the final conceptual model the observations and the discussion were
elaborated according to the theoretical positions described in the
theoretical review and with the answers of the people interviewed. The
contrast of these two phases made it possible to formulate theorizing.
Theorizing, according to Martinez, (1999): ``Is a way to look at the
facts, to organize them and to represent them conceptually, through a
new network of relations between the constituent parts.{''} From this
point of view, the theory turns out to be the production of human
intelligence, since imagination and experience have been part of the
construction of knowledge.
We consider that the content analysis as a way to approach an
investigation, is a methodological complement that allows to obtain
knowledge of precise and effective way. The systematization of
information leads to the construction of a theorization, which is
reached, to the extent that we appropriate the acquired knowledge.
In sum, the design of the final conceptual model originated from the
interaction and contrast of the matching elements of the categories and
subcategories extracted from both the initial model and the intermediate
model.
Research objectives:
1. Observe the legislative framework and immigration policies and
integration models in the context of Andalusia and Tangier.
2. Analyze the conditions and discourses that are generated in this
migration process both in the context of departure, in transit and in
the receiving society.
3. Analyze the migration process of Moroccan women to Andalusia, based
on their expectations, experiences and personal assessments.
4. Identify the discourses around the exclusion processes that affect
the Moroccan woman in the host society
5. Design proposals for improvement, achieving the overcoming of the
more generalist positions insofar as they identify the migratory
phenomenon as unique.
Results in relation to objectives.
1. The exclusionary factors of this particular phenomenon are identified
in such a way that proposes the adaptation of public policies and
measures in which integration and socio-labor participation is the key
axis of action and women are recognized in all areas of performance.
However, it is recognized that certain changes in their societies of
origin are also necessary.
2. The speeches that are generated in the migratory process are
analyzed. These discourses related to the intention to emigrate that is
generated in the society of origin, in the transit and in the process of
consolidation that takes place in the receiving society. It is
highlighted that migratory flows bring into contact the systems of
gender and social class inequality of two different societies: the
society of origin and the host society. Therefore, the importance of
analyzing these issues is recognized. This is why we have analyzed this
migratory phenomenon in three key moments.
{[}GRAPHICS]
.
The migratory process of Moroccan women, in their economic character,
has a specific reception in a segmented labor market, with tasks of
family and domestic care, surrounded by a great vulnerability, but which
satisfies to some extent their migratory expectations.
3. The current economic crisis suffered by Andalusia, for almost a
decade, provokes that, although this is identified by the protagonists
in forms that are ignored in their speeches, I acted as a mechanism to
curb and expel female migration, or Precarization of underemployment to
which they access.
4. Different situations related to different moments of the migration
are exposed within a frame of fatigue and wear. Subsequently, some
perceptions of well-being are shown, in cases where women understand
that their expectations have been met.
5. We believe it is necessary, despite not being evident, an improvement
in Spanish policies to improve the quality of life of women, to make
proposals generated by the results of the analysis in the sense of
improving the integration and social participation of Moroccan women who
should have institutional resources in different areas, highlighting
improvements in the current Aliens Act, access to the education system,
labor insertion, language learning, accreditation of studies, gender
violence, impartial media and poor housing.
In our opinion, it is important to develop many positive actions and
political will to achieve an optimal process of integration and social
participation of women from Morocco in Andalusia.},

Title = {Using photovoice methodology to uncover individual-level, health
systems, and contextual barriers to uptake of second dose of measles
containing vaccine in Western Area Urban, Sierra Leone, 2020},
Journal = {VACCINE: X},
Year = {2023},
Volume = {14},
Month = {AUG},
Abstract = {Background: Vaccination coverage for the second dose of the
measles-containing vaccine (MCV2) among children has remained stagnant
in Sierra Leone at nearly 67\% since its introduction in 2015.
Identifying communityspecific barriers faced by caregivers in accessing
MCV2 services for their children and by health workers in delivering
MCV2 is key to informing strategies to improve vaccination coverage.
Methods: We used Photovoice, a participatory method using photographs
and narratives to understand community barriers to MCV2 uptake from
March- September 2020. Six female and five male caregivers of
MCV2eligible children (15-24 months of age), and six health care workers
(HCWs) in Freetown, Sierra Leone participated. After having an
orientation to photovoice, they photographed barriers related to general
immunization and MCV2 uptake in their community. This was followed by
facilitated discussions where participants elaborated on the barriers
captured in the photos. Transcripts from the six immunization-related
discussions were analyzed to deduce themes through open-ended coding. A
photo exhibition was held for participants to discuss the barriers and
suggested solutions with decision-makers, such as the ministry of
health. Results: We identified and categorized nine themes into three
groups: 1) individual or caregiver level barriers (e. g., caregivers'
lack of knowledge on MCV2, concerns about vaccine side effects, and
gender-related barriers); 2) health system barriers, such as HCWs' focus
on children below one year and usage of old child health cards; and 3)
contextual barriers, such as poverty, poor infrastructure, and the
COVID-19 pandemic. Participants suggested the decision-makers to enhance
community engagement with caregivers and HCW capacity including,
increasing accountability of their work using performance-based
approaches, among different strategies to improve MCV2 uptake.
Conclusion: Photovoice can provide nuanced understanding of community
issues affecting MCV2. As a methodology, it should be integrated in
broader intervention planning activities to facilitate the translation
of community-suggested strategies into action.},

Title = {The value of community technology workers for LPG use: A pilot in
Shirati, Tanzania},
Journal = {ENERGY SUSTAINABILITY AND SOCIETY},
Year = {2022},
Volume = {12},
Number = {1},
Month = {JAN 13},
Abstract = {Background: Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 7 calls for the adoption
and continued use of clean-burning stoves by the 2.9 billion people
relying on unclean fuels (both solid biomass and kerosene). However, to
date, the clean cooking literature has found low rates of efficient
stove adoption and continued use. This paper presents the application of
a public health community engagement model to the use of clean cooking
fuels. We implemented a pilot study with Community Technology Workers
(CTWs) as a means to overcome maintenance, education, and behavioral
barriers to clean fuel use in rural Tanzania.
Methods: The intervention was a free 6 kg Liquified Petroleum Gas (LPG)
cylinder and stove coupled with education from a local technically
trained CTW on LPG use. We evaluated the training, work, and impact of a
CTW on LPG use on 30 randomly selected households from two villages in a
rural district of Tanzania over a 1-year period. After an initial
baseline survey, technically trained local CTWs educated the households
on safe LPG use and conducted 34 follow up surveys over the next year on
their cooking fuel use. Additionally, we conducted qualitative
interviews with all households and a focus group with six of the
households.
Results: The results from the mixed methods approach show that 80\% of
families (n = 24) consistently refilled their LPG cylinders and similar
to 40\% of households exclusively used LPG. Households reported
appreciating the CTWs' visits for providing education and maintenance
support, giving them confidence to use LPG safely, reminding them to
save for their cylinder, and providing a community driven effort to use
clean fuel.
Conclusions: The findings demonstrate the feasibility of this type of
community infrastructure model to promote and facilitate consistent LPG
use, but suggest the need to couple this local support with financial
mechanisms (e.g., a microsavings program). This model could be a
mechanism to increase LPG use, particularly in rural, low-income areas.},

Title = {Exploring the development of library makerspaces in China},
Journal = {INFORMATION DISCOVERY AND DELIVERY},
Year = {2018},
Volume = {46},
Number = {2},
Pages = {127-135},
Abstract = {Purpose In response to the government's decision to make
entrepreneurship and innovation for all a national strategy in its 2015
annual work report, Chinese professionals in the library field have
expressed a growing interest in makerspaces. This study aims to provide
an overview of their current research studies and attempts in
constructing makerspaces.
Design/methodology/approach The authors aggregated research materials on
library makerspaces in China from two sources: journal articles from the
China National Knowledge Infrastructure Database and online news reports
from the search engine Baidu.com. Content analysis was used to extract
information regarding visions and perceived values, service models and
technology adoption.
Findings While a growing number of Chinese academic publications are
concerned with library makerspaces, the existing research focuses on
foreign cases and offers few empirical studies on domestic application
scenarios. Libraries and researchers in China hold a positive and
supportive attitude toward makerspaces. 3D printing is the most
frequently mentioned technology, and free-to-use, promoting
communication and realization of ideas and dreams are the most
emphasized values. Libraries should highlight their own unique
advantages and tap into their resources and services in mutually
beneficial collaborations with other types of makerspaces.
Research limitations/implications First, the results of this study
cannot fully summarize the development status of makerspaces in Chinese
libraries. Second, the research materials used in this study may be
biased, especially the news reports.
Practical implications This paper presents a semantic, visualized
analysis of aggregated online news articles and journal articles on
library makerspaces in China in an attempt to summarize their
characteristics and guiding values, validate the advantages of library
makerspaces and give suggestions on improving their service models.
Social implications This paper introduces the development trend of
makerspace in Chinese libraries, so that researchers at home and abroad
can learn more about the development of Chinese library.
Originality/value This study comprehensively overviews the development
of library makerspaces in China. The results provide suggestions to
improve maker services in library.},

Title = {Health Workforce Equity in Urban Community Health Service of China},
Journal = {PLOS ONE},
Year = {2014},
Volume = {9},
Number = {12},
Month = {DEC 31},
Abstract = {Objectives: To reveal the equity of health workforce distribution in
urban community health service (CHS), and to provide evidence for
further development of community health service in China.
Methods: A community-based, cross-sectional study was conducted in China
from September to December 2011. In the study, 190 CHS centers were
selected from 10 provinces of China via stratified multistage cluster
sampling. Human resources profiles and basic characteristics of each CHS
centers were collected. Lorenz curves and Gini Coefficient were used to
measure the inequality in the distribution of health workforce in
community health service centers by population size and geographical
area. Wilcoxon rank test for paired samples was used to analyze the
differences in equity between different health indicators.
Results: On average, there were 7.37 health workers, including 3.25
doctors and 2.32 nurses per 10,000 population ratio. Significant
differences were found in all indicators across the samples, while
Beijing, Shandong and Zhejiang ranked the highest among these provinces.
The Gini coefficients for health workers, doctors and nurses per 10,000
population ratio were 0.39, 0.44, and 0.48, respectively. The equity of
doctors per 10,000 population ratio (G=0.39) was better than that of
doctors per square kilometer (G=0.44) (P=0.005). Among the total 6,573
health workers, 1,755(26.7\%) had undergraduate degree or above,
2,722(41.4\%) had junior college degree and 215(3.3\%) had high school
education. Significant inequity was found in the distribution of workers
with undergraduate degree or above (G=0.52), which was worse than that
of health works per 10000 population (P<0.001).
Conclusions: Health workforce inequity was found in this study,
especially in quality and geographic distribution. These findings
suggest a need for more innovative policies to improve health equity in
Chinese urban CHS centers.},

Title = {The time has come to make cervical cancer prevention an essential part
of comprehensive sexual and reproductive health services for
HIV-positive women in low-income countries},
Journal = {JOURNAL OF THE INTERNATIONAL AIDS SOCIETY},
Year = {2015},
Volume = {18},
Number = {5},
Pages = {39-43},
Month = {DEC},
Abstract = {Introduction: HIV and cervical cancer are intersecting epidemics that
disproportionately affect one of the most vulnerable populations in the
world: women in low-and middle-income countries (LMICs). Historically,
the disparity in cervical cancer risk for women in LMICs has been due to
the lack of organized screening and prevention programmes. In recent
years, this risk has been augmented by the severity of the HIV epidemic
in LMICs. HIV-positive women are at increased risk for developing
cervical precancer and cancer, and while the introduction of
antiretroviral therapy has dramatically improved life expectancies among
HIV-positive women it has not been shown to improve cancer-related
outcomes. Therefore, an increasing number of HIV-positive women are
living in LMICs with limited or no access to cervical cancer screening
programmes. In this commentary, we describe the gaps in cervical cancer
prevention, the state of evidence for integrating cervical cancer
prevention into HIV programmes and future directions for programme
implementation and research.
Discussion: Despite the biologic, behavioural and demographic overlap
between HIV and cervical cancer, cervical cancer prevention has for the
most part been left out of sexual and reproductive health (SRH) services
for HIV-positive women. Lower cost primary and secondary prevention
strategies for cervical cancer are becoming more widely available in
LMICs, with increasing evidence for their efficacy and
cost-effectiveness. Going forward, cervical cancer prevention must be
considered a part of the essential package of SRH services for
HIV-positive women. Effective cervical cancer prevention programmes will
require a coordinated response from international policymakers and
funders, national governments and community leaders. Leveraging the
improvements in healthcare infrastructure created by the response to the
global HIV epidemic through integration of services may be an effective
way to make an impact to prevent cervical cancer among HIV-positive
women, but more work remains to determine optimal approaches.
Conclusions: Cervical cancer prevention is an essential part of
comprehensive HIV care. In order to ensure maximal impact and
cost-effectiveness, implementation strategies for screening programmes
must be adapted and rigorously evaluated through a framework that
includes equal participation with policymakers, programme planners and
key stakeholders in the target communities.},

Title = {CITIZEN SCIENTISTS AND MARINE RESEARCH: VOLUNTEER PARTICIPANTS, THEIR
CONTRIBUTIONS, AND PROJECTION FOR THE FUTURE},
Booktitle = {OCEANOGRAPHY AND MARINE BIOLOGY: AN ANNUAL REVIEW, VOL 52},
Series = {Oceanography and Marine Biology},
Year = {2014},
Volume = {52},
Pages = {257-314},
Abstract = {The field of citizen science is flourishing, and although terrestrial
projects are more visible, in recent years thousands of volunteers have
actively participated in marine research activities. These volunteers
(also termed `citizen scientists') may have experience in the research
in which they are participating, but they have no formal degree in
marine science or related topics. The participation of large numbers of
volunteers with variable educational or professional backgrounds poses
particular challenges for the professional scientists coordinating such
research. Knowledge about the structure of these projects, the research
activities conducted by citizen scientists, and quality control of data
collected by volunteers is essential to identify their contribution to
marine science. We examined 227 published studies in which professional
scientists collaborated with volunteers in a wide range of marine
investigations. Most studies focused on a diverse assemblage of animals,
followed by flora and other topics (e.g., contamination or beach
dynamics). Seabirds, marine mammals, turtles, and fishes were the most
commonly studied animals, but several studies also dealt with marine
invertebrates. Many of the studied taxa were commercially important,
emblematic, or endangered species. Surveys of invasive species took
advantage of the extensive spatial scale that can be covered by large
numbers of volunteers. As would be expected, the research activities of
citizen scientists were concentrated in easily accessible coastal
habitats, including sandy beaches, estuaries, coral reefs, and seagrass
beds. Hot spots of marine citizen science projects (CSPs) were found not
only in North America and Europe, but also in the Indo-West Pacific
region. Contributions made by citizen scientists were equally based on
incidental observations as on standardized surveys. Some of the research
projects had been active for more than a decade, but most were midterm
programmes, lasting a few years or less. Volunteer participants came
from a wide range of demographic backgrounds. Usually, the participants
were adults of both sexes, but a few studies considered either only men
or only women (mainly in small fishing communities). Whereas several
studies were based on schoolchildren as volunteers, no study worked
specifically with senior citizens. The educational level of
participants, often not explicitly mentioned in the publications, was
also diverse. Some projects selected participants based on their
experiences, skills, or profession, but in the majority of the studies,
there was either no selection or no information was provided, suggesting
that any interested citizen could participate. The preparation of
participants ranged from brief written or oral instructions to extensive
(weeks) training sessions with professional experts. In general,
training effort increased with the complexity of the tasks conducted by
volunteers, a crucial element being the adjustment of simple
methodologies to the capabilities of participants. Studies for which
volunteers needed to identify many different species and estimate their
abundances were considered the most complex tasks, and subsequent
analysis of such studies by professional scientists must consider
inherent bias or shortcomings. About half of the examined studies
included some type of quality control to ensure that the data collected
by citizen scientists met the standards of rigorous scientific studies.
Several authors emphasized that data quality increased with the duration
of project participation.
Efforts therefore should be made to retain experienced volunteers over
time, which is facilitated when volunteers perceive that their efforts
lead to something of practical use, such as publications, conservation
initiatives, management decisions, or policy actions. Participants
seemed to value personal satisfaction and public recognition, but
learning about the ocean was also important. The coordinators of marine
CSPs often collaborated with organizations such as conservation groups,
birdwatchers, dive associations, or fishermen's cooperatives to recruit
volunteers, but media campaigns, personal communication, social media,
and functional websites were also important. Some studies were based on
small numbers of participants (e.g., artisanal fishermen); others
involved thousands of volunteers (e.g., coral or litter surveys).
Volunteer-generated data contributed information about population
dynamics, health, or distribution of marine organisms and supported
long-term monitoring programmes of marine protected areas, harmful algal
blooms, or marine litter, among others. In general, the contribution of
citizen scientists greatly enhances research capacity, providing an
increased workforce over extensive spatial and intensive temporal scales
at comparatively moderate costs. Citizen science is able to make
significant contributions to marine science, where professional
scientific activities are limited by the available human resources.
Considering the vastness of the oceans and the diversity of habitats,
communities, and species, proper understanding of this realm requires
intensive research activities over time and space. This recognition
should lead to increased consideration of citizen science as a powerful
tool for the generation and spread of scientific knowledge. Furthermore,
sharing knowledge between volunteer participants and professional
scientists improves communication, trust, and capacity building,
facilitating efficient collaboration in much-needed conservation
initiatives.},

Title = {CLIL PRACTICES IN TOMSK POLYTECHNIC UNIVERSITY: SUCCESSES AND FAILURES},
Journal = {OBRAZOVANIE I NAUKA-EDUCATION AND SCIENCE},
Year = {2018},
Volume = {20},

Pages = {164-187},

Abstract = {Introduction. Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) has
recently been applied into education system, but a range of supporters
is rapidly increasing, covering diverse countries. The CLIL approaches
simultaneously use a foreign language as an object to studying and as an
instrument to learning other subjects. The emergence of CLIL was related
to a wide distribution of bilingualism in society and the need to cope
with the problems related to this process, including the elimination of
international conflicts, the consolidation of society as the factor of a
social well-being, the support of a competitive labour market, etc.
Despite growing popularity of CLIL across the world and recognised
status by the European Union as one of the leading effective means to
implementing international language policy of multilingualism, the
academic teaching staff of Russian higher school does not still fully
understand the organisational mechanisms and forms of a similar learning
process, largely as a result of national characteristics and traditions.
In a globalising world, CLIL didactics is currently becoming a
perspective direction of higher education and an effective way both of
acquiring and improving language and communicative competencies to
provide further successful professionalising of students and to
facilitate their career promotion in the chosen field of activity.
The aim of this paper was to sum up and discuss the experience of Tomsk
Polytechnic University in conducting CLIL-based courses.
Methodology and research methods. The concept of practice-oriented
vocational education was used as the methodological base of the
experimental work in order to search optimal variants when developing
foreign language knowledge in the students of engineering specialties.
In the course of the research, the approaches of comparative analysis,
synthesis, generalisation, forecasting, design, modelling, prolonged
monitoring of learning outcomes, observation and questionnaire survey
were applied.
Results and scientific novelty. The actualising reasons for CLIL
approach in the Russian high school education were formulated and
proved. The brief historical overview of didactic concepts was
presented. The authors analysed temporary challenges which preceded the
implementation of CLIL methodologies in the learning process of Tomsk
Polytechnic University (TPU) and the introduction of programme
``Vocational Training and Education in a Foreign Language{''} (3rd\_ 4th
years of education). The stages of teaching foreign language evolution
at the university were distinguished: the anglification of engineering
education transformed into multidisciplinary model of English for
Specific Purpose (ESP); the creation of ``pe-dagogical tandems{''} - the
organization of courses with ``double agents{''}; and, finally, CLIL
training in which a cognitive component can be seen as the key
characteristic and the main advantage. Success and failure in the field
of CLIL practices available today at TPU were revised. The examples of
private implementable practices were described and analysed. The
research findings revealed the rationality when using various applied
variations of CLIL methodology.
Practical significance. The research outcomes allowed the authors to
adjust not only the main educational programmes of higher education
institution, but also internal programmes of professional development of
teachers. Although the long-term experiment summarised in the
publication in a single higher education institution does not apply for
universality and mass circulation, the authors believe that
experimentative materials will contribute to consistent embedding of
CLIL courses into a complete system of vocational training.},

Socio-Philosophical Analysis},

Pages = {57-63},
Month = {DEC},
Abstract = {The article analyzes the policy of positive discrimination for people
with disabilities. In the framework of this policy, measures are most
often developed and implemented in the fields of education, employment,
and material support. The purpose of this policy is to strive to
equalize the rights and opportunities of the previously discriminated
group of people with disabilities. Despite the active implementation of
``affirmative action{''}, problems arise that are connected not only
with the dissatisfaction of the target group, but also with the
manifestation of discontent among people without disabilities. The
author of the article aims to identify the reasons for the insolvency of
the policy of positive discrimination for persons with disabilities. She
assumes that the reason is the fact that interpretations of positive
discrimination, despite their outwardly positive connotation, retain a
discriminatory nature and rely on the same socio-philosophical
foundations as in negative discrimination. Discrimination of people with
disabilities is denoted by the terms ``ableism{''} and ``disablism{''};
the difference between them is the focus of attention. It is assumed
that the prevailing theories of discrimination are based on the
following theories: the concept of ``Self-Other{''} in the understanding
of ``Other than the Self{''}, justified by G. Hegel, J.-P. Sartre, J.
Ortega y Gasset and criticized by M. Foucault, J. Butler; the norm
theory developed by C. Durheim, R. Metron and investigated by T.
Parsons, M. Foucault; the theory of stigma introduced by E. Goffman; as
well as the theory of minorities, which causes numerous disputes in the
academic community and is reflected in the works of M. Oliver, S. Burns,
T. Shakespeare, E. Bernes on the topic of a discriminated minority.
These concepts also maintain their fundamental position in interpreting
policies of positive discrimination. Thus, the policy of positive
discrimination, like negative discrimination, focuses on the binary
opposition ``Self-Other than the Self{''}, although it acquires an
outwardly positive character, and on the aspiration to help and adapt to
the needs of a person with a disability. The policy of positive
discrimination, partly because it is imposed from outside, does not
solve the problem of stigmatization. Studies prove the prevalence of
negative attitudes in the form of implicit ones. There is a change in
the status of a minority from the discriminated to the dominant, and a
transition from positive to reverse discrimination. The author comes to
the conclusion that the inefficiency of the measures is determined by
the methodology which is based, in fact, on the simple reversal of the
opposition. In this regard, it can be concluded that, in order to change
the current situation and include people with disabilities in society,
it is necessary not only to develop various technologies and methods,
but also to change the sociophilosophical foundations.},

Abstract = {Handling Cases of Suspected Sexual Abuse of Children and Adolescents by
the Medical-Therapeutic Staff Abstract. Background: Professional sexual
misconduct (PSM) encompasses all kinds of sexual assault or acts
stemming from professional dependency relationships. Because of the
power gap in the relationship between healthcare professionals and
patients, PSM is of particular relevance in health care facilities. Data
are accumulating and point toward a high prevalence of PSM in health
care and sexual violence against minors. Recently, several suspected
cases of PSM led to consultations at the national Medical Child
Protection Hotline for medical professionals. Particularly health care
professionals who had evidence of sexual abuse of children/adolescents
by peers and did not know how to proceed contacted the hotline.
Objective: This article compiles the current data on PSM and sexual
violence against minors in health care in Germany as well as possible
prevention and intervention strategies. Methods: Based on a selective
literature search, we point out details concerning the definition,
epidemiology, and legal framework of PSM as well as giving possible
hints on PSM by colleagues. The analysis is supplemented by a case
report on specific consultation requests made to the Medical Child
Protection Hotline. We also present possible prevention strategies of
PSM, as potential options for action if PSM is suspected. Results: While
data on epidemiology are scarce, suspected PSM by healthcare
professionals in Germany is a relevant problem. Persons with pedophilic
tendencies often specifically seek out fields of work that provide close
contact with children. By law, any sexually motivated contact with
persons under the age of 14, any sexual act perpetrated on a person
under the age of 18 by taking advantage of a coercive situation, and any
sexual contact between health care professionals and patients of any age
during treatment is prohibited. The protection of children in
institutions is a necessary and legal obligation. In cases of suspected
PSM, colleagues should not be confronted with the suspicion, but the
executive level should be informed. Seeking out information from
psychotherapists' organizations/medical associations can be helpful.
Whether to involve law enforcement authorities should be considered
carefully. In all these steps, close cooperation and respect for the
needs and will of the affected patients are paramount. Discussion and
Conclusion: PSM in medicine is presently a complex and understudied
theme. To ensure effective prevention, it is first of all necessary for
all areas to adopt an attitude toward patients that is appreciative and
respects boundaries. It is important that independent patient advocates
and complaints offices be open to feedback, including that from young
children, and take it seriously. Because of the lack of clear action
plans and often personal involvement with suspected colleagues,
uncertainty among the professionals involved is understandable.
Nevertheless, whenever PSM is suspected, any health care professional is
obliged to take considerate action to protect the patients and other
potential victims from further harm.},

Title = {Congresses on Nationalist Upbringing in the Republic of Estonia in 1927
and 1935: Models, Reception, and their Effect in Society},
Journal = {TUNA-AJALOOKULTUURI AJAKIRI},
Year = {2022},

Abstract = {The establishment of Estonia's independent statehood took the political
and cultural freedom of Estonians to an entirely new level, yet on the
other hand it required the reinterpretation of fundamental ideas for
developing society. This also meant the reassessment of nationalist
ideas and of their importance. Estonian independent statehood was seen
as the guarantor of the survival of Estonian culture and the Estonian
people. Attempts were made to find means for how to better assure the
development of Estonian culture.
Like elsewhere in Europe of that time, nationalism and its promotion
formed one important aspect of building up and developing the
educational system of independent Estonia. Two congresses for the
comprehensive discussion of various themes regarding nationalist
education were organised in Estonia in the period between the two world
wars. The first was held in Tartu on 2-3 January 1927 and the second was
held on 2-3 January 1935 in Tallinn. The organisation of a third
congress was also planned for 1940 but it was cancelled due to drastic
changes in the prevailing political situation.
The aim of this article is to analyse the models for the congresses on
nationalist education, their ideas and models from abroad, their
reception in society, and their effect on school life. The article
examines the organisation of the congresses, and their speakers and
participants, focusing on the topics that resounded there, and on
changes in the extent and points of emphasis of the congresses.
These congresses were connected to one another by the Estonian Eugenics
and Genealogy Society as their organiser. Views from the field of
eugenics, which were widespread elsewhere in Europe of that time,
resounded at the congress of 1927 and dominated in 1935, even though
eugenics, which primarily belongs to the field of medical science, had
little to do with education and upbringing.
A great deal of public interest, a large number of participants that
included many interest groups, and the formulation of ideas and ideals
regarding nationalist education characterised the congress of 1927.
Debate between the larger left- and right-wing political parties
accompanied the discussions that took place at the congress and
dominated the reports on the congress in the press. The Socialist Party,
which had the most seats in the Riigikogu (Estonian Parliament) of that
time, reproached the right-wingers for using the label of nationalism
and demanded social reforms. The right-wingers, especially the
Rahvaerakond (People's Party), protested against left-wing agitation in
schools and cast doubt on whether socialists could be nationalistically
disposed at all.
The congress of 1935 focused primarily on questions related to
demography and population policy. Practical means were sought for
channelling the development of various fields of activity. Under the
conditions of the authoritarian regime that prevailed in Estonia at that
time, political debate was missing from congress presentations and press
reports on the congress. Additionally, numerous presentations were
cancelled in protest against the prevailing domestic political
situation. For various reasons, the number of participants and the
representation of interest groups was also smaller than at the first
congress. Teachers from rural schools, who at that time numbered
considerably more than teachers from city schools, were left out of the
congress altogether because teaching had already started in the
countryside at the time that the congress took place. All this caused
dissonance because a great deal was said at the congress about the
advantages of rural life in particular. The congress was criticised in
the press for the one-sidedness of its themes and their superficial
treatment - a great deal was undertaken but the working format of the
congress did not provide room for delving deeper into topics. The
reputation of the speakers was yet another problem at the 2nd congress
in particular. The search for those who were to blame for the declining
birth rate and the spread of bad manners, which took place in the course
of discussions at the congress, prompted the public to ask whether the
verbose accusers had any moral right for making such proclamations.
The primary models for the ideas expounded at the congresses were
Finland from among Estonia's nearest neighbours and France from among
Western European countries for the social-political subsidies and awards
that had been put into effect there. Certain aspects of the social
policies of fascist Italy and National Socialist Germany were also
considered as models at the second congress. Nevertheless, both the
childlessness tax and the marriage loan were never applied in practice
in Estonia.
At the congress of 1927, the family was seen as the primary agent of
nationalist upbringing. A series of resolutions was adopted at the
congress, from which some ideas made their way into school curricula,
yet no important practical measures followed. Regarding the introduction
of the teaching of national defence in schools, the congress was above
all part of an overall process. The Estonianisation of names was given
momentum more broadly in society.
By 1935, the understanding of school as an institution of upbringing had
expanded and thereby also the understanding of school as one of the most
important institutions for carrying out nationalist upbringing. While
nationalism was previously related to mostly self-evidently in schools
and the influence of leftists on schools was seen as the main political
problem, the more vigorous development of nationalism was considered
necessary in the 1930s, especially after the coup of 1934. State
interests and the raising of `good citizens' became key words in
legislation.
The 2nd congress aspired to adopt a more concrete and practical
orientation. Themes such as social policy were discussed, particularly
the promotion of public health. The government thereafter dealt with
these themes. The discussion provided the impetus for the formation of a
commission of governmental cabinet ministers. A six-year plan for
promoting public health was called into being. A great deal of
legislation was adopted or amended, such as legislation for protecting
mothers and children, welfare legislation, and sterilisation
legislation. A child protection foundation was founded. Considering the
role and influence of the Estonian Eugenics and Genealogy Society in
organising these congresses and in their work, a connection can be seen
here between the 2nd nationalist upbringing congress and
social-political changes that followed it.
Although upbringing was prominent in the name of these congresses, it is
characteristic that educational questions remained in the background.
The issue of minority peoples was primarily delved into in the context
of school at the 2nd congress of nationalist upbringing. The need was
seen for changing how cultural self-administrations were organised,
equalising the educational level of schools where the language of
instruction was Estonian and schools where instruction was given in
other languages, and inculcating loyalty in minority peoples through the
school system in particular. In practice, educational literature in
foreign languages was developed to a small extent while more significant
changes were not made in the work of cultural self-administrations.},

Abstract = {PurposeThe United States' National Institutes of Health (NIH) have long
challenged academia to improve clinical trial enrollment, especially in
underrepresented populations; inclusive of geography, age, disability
status, racial and ethnic minorities. It has been shown that rural and
urban residents enrolled in clinical trials have similar outcomes, yet,
rural healthcare systems struggle to provide opportunities to rural
residents to participate in clinical trials when infrastructure is
limited or unsupportive of research programs and/or research staffing
levels are insufficient. To fully address the barriers to clinical trial
access in rural areas, it is not adequate to simply open more trials.
Community receptivity of research as well as organizational and
community capacity must be considered. This project was determined by
the Oregon Health and Science University's Institutional Review Board to
be generalizable research across the chosen counties and was approved to
operate under a waiver of written consent. Participants received a cash
incentive in appreciation for their time and verbally agreed to
participate after reviewing a project information sheet.MethodsThe
research team co-created a community-responsive approach to the receipt,
review, and acceptance of clinical trials in a rural community setting.
An adapted 5 step Implementation Mapping approach was used to develop a
systematic strategy intended to increase the success, and therefore, the
number of clinical trials offered in a rural community.ResultsThe
research team and participating rural community members pilot-tested the
implementation of a co-designed research review strategy, inclusive of a
Regional Cultural Landscape and three co-created project submission and
feasibility review forms, with a cancer early detection clinical trial.
The proposed clinical trial required engagement from primary care and
oncology. Utilizing the research review strategy demonstrated strong
researcher-community stakeholder communication and negotiation, which
resulted in early identification and resolution of potential barriers,
hiring a local clinical research coordinator, and timely trial
opening.ConclusionTo the knowledge of the research team, the work
described is the first to use a community-engaged approach for creating
a clinical trial implementation strategy directly supportive of
rural-sitting community stakeholders in receiving, reviewing, and
approving cancer-related clinical trials in their community.
Participating community members and leaders had the chance to negotiate
research protocol changes or considerations directly with researchers
interested in conducting a cancer clinical trial in their rural setting.},

Abstract = {The COVID-19 pandemic has strained health systems globally, with
governments imposing strict distancing and movement restrictions. Little
is known about the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on sexual and
reproductive health (SRH). This study examined perceived effects of
COVID-19 on SRH service provision and use in the Asia-Pacific region. We
conducted a qualitative study using semi-structured interviews with 28
purposively sampled SRH experts in 12 Asia-Pacific countries (e.g.
United Nations, international and national non-governmental
organisations, ministries of health, academia) between November 2020 and
January 2021. We analysed data using the six-stage thematic analysis
approach proposed by Braun and Clarke (2019). Interviewees reported that
COVID-19 mitigation measures, such as transport restrictions and those
that decreased the availability of personal protective equipment (PPE),
reduced SRH service provision and use in most countries. SRH needs
related to service barriers and gender-based violence increased.
Systemic challenges included fragmented COVID-19 response plans and
insufficient communication and collaboration, particularly between
public and private sectors. SRH service-delivery challenges included
COVID-19 response prioritisation, e.g. SRH staff task-shifting to
COVID-19 screening and contact tracing, and lack of necessary supplies
and equipment. Innovative SRH delivery responses included door-to-door
antenatal care and family planning provision in the Philippines, online
platforms for SRH education and outreach in Viet Nam, and increasing SRH
service engagement through social media in Myanmar and Indonesia. To
ensure continuation of SRH services during health emergencies,
governments should earmark human and financial resources and prioritise
frontline health-worker safety; work with communities and the private
sector; and develop effective risk communications.
La pandemie de COVID-19 a mis a rude epreuve les systemes de sante dans
le monde, les gouvernements imposant des mesures strictes de
distanciation et de limitation des deplacements. On sait encore peu de
choses sur les consequences de la pandemie de COVID-19 sur la sante
sexuelle et reproductive (SSR). Cette etude a examine les effets percus
de la COVID-19 sur la prestation et l'utilisation de services de SSR
dans la region Asie-Pacifique. Nous avons mene une etude qualitative
entre novembre 2020 et janvier 2021 a l'aide d'entretiens
semi-structures avec 28 experts en SSR selectionnes par choix raisonne
dans 12 pays d'Asie et du Pacifique (par exemple des institutions des
Nations Unies, des organisations non gouvernementales nationales et
internationales, des ministeres de la sante, des etablissements
universitaires). Nous avons analyse les donnees en utilisant l'approche
d'analyse thematique en six etapes proposee par Braun and Clarke (2019).
Les personnes interrogees ont indique que les mesures d'attenuation de
la COVID-19, comme les restrictions de transport et celles qui ont
diminue la disponibilite des equipements de protection individuelle
(EPI), ont reduit l'offre et l'utilisation de services de SSR dans la
plupart des pays. Les besoins de SSR lies aux obstacles aux services et
a la violence sexiste ont augmente. Les difficultes systemiques
comprenaient des plans de riposte fragmentaire a la COVID-19, de meme
qu'une communication et une collaboration insuffisantes, en particulier
entre les secteurs public et prive. Les obstacles se rapportant a la
prestation des services de SSR incluaient la priorite accordee a la
reponse a la COVID-19, par exemple l'affectation du personnel de SSR a
des taches de depistage de la COVID-19 et de recherche des contacts, et
le manque de fournitures et d'equipements necessaires. Les reponses
innovantes en matiere de prestation de SSR comprenaient des services de
soins prenatals et de planification familiale a domicile aux
Philippines, des plateformes en ligne pour l'education et la
sensibilisation a la SSR au Viet Nam, et l'accroissement de la
participation des services de SSR par le biais des medias sociaux au
Myanmar et en Indonesie. Pour garantir la continuite des services de SSR
pendant les urgences sanitaires, les gouvernements devraient reserver
des ressources humaines et financieres, et donner la priorite a la
securite des agents de sante de premiere ligne; travailler avec les
communautes et le secteur prive; et mettre au point une communication
efficace des risques encourus.
La pandemia de COVID-19 ha causado una sobrecarga de los sistemas de
salud del mundo, y los gobiernos han tenido que imponer estrictas
restricciones de distanciamiento y movimiento. Aun no se sabe mucho
sobre los efectos de la pandemia de COVID-19 en la salud sexual y
reproductiva (SSR). Este estudio examino los efectos percibidos de
COVID-19 en la prestacion y el uso de servicios de SSR en la region de
Asia-Pacifico. Realizamos un estudio cualitativo utilizando entrevistas
semiestructuradas con 28 expertos en SSR muestreados intencionalmente,
en doce paises de Asia-Pacifico (ej. Naciones Unidas, organizaciones no
gubernamentales internacionales y nacionales, ministerios de salud,
academicos) entre noviembre de 2020 y febrero de 2021. Analizamos los
datos utilizando el enfoque de analisis tematico de seis etapas
propuesto por Braun y Clarke (2019). Las personas entrevistadas
informaron que las medidas de mitigacion de COVID-19, tales como
restricciones al transporte y aquellas que disminuyeron la
disponibilidad de equipo de proteccion personal (EPP), disminuyeron la
prestacion y el uso de servicios de SSR en la mayoria de los paises.
Aumentaron las necesidades de SSR relacionadas con las barreras a los
servicios y la violencia de genero. Algunos de los retos sistemicos eran
planes fragmentados de respuesta al COVID-19 y comunicacion y
colaboracion insuficientes, en particular entre los sectores publico y
privado. Ejemplos de retos relacionados con la prestacion de servicios
de SSR eran la priorizacion de respuesta a COVID-19, ej. redirigir las
tareas del personal de SSR al tamizaje de COVID-19 y al rastreo de
contactos, y la falta de insumos y equipos necesarios. Entre las
respuestas innovadoras para la entrega de servicios de SSR se
encontraban la atencion prenatal y provision de planificacion familiar
de puerta en puerta en Filipinas, plataformas en linea para la educacion
y actividades de extension comunitaria sobre SSR en Vietnam, y mayor
participacion en los servicios de SSR por medio de las redes sociales en
Myanmar e Indonesia. Para garantizar la continuacion de los servicios de
SSR durante emergencias de salud, los gobiernos deben asignar los
recursos humanos y financieros y priorizar la seguridad de los
trabajadores de salud de primera linea; trabajar con las comunidades y
el sector privado; y formular comunicaciones eficaces de riesgos.},

Title = {Public expenditure on disability in the EU: estimation and analysis by
administrative cultures and models of state of well-being},
Journal = {CIRIEC-ESPANA REVISTA DE ECONOMIA PUBLICA SOCIAL Y COOPERATIVA},
Year = {2017},
Volume = {89},

Abstract = {The aim of this paper is to estimate and analyze the public expenditure
on disability in Europe, considering that this information is not
explicitly available in the accessible statistical sources.
The data sources used for estimating public expenditure on disability
are included in two different functional classifications: European
System of Integrated Social Protection Statistics (ESSPROS) and
Classification of the Functions of Government (COFOG).
Relating to the ESSPROS classification it is important to consider the
specific expenditure on disability compared to the total expenditure on
social protection, both of which referred to all public and private
entities as a whole. While from the COFOG classification is concerned
our interest will be the spending on social protection with exclusive
reference to the public sector.
The analyzed period is 2005 - 2013, which allows us to study the
evolution from the years before the economic crisis to the latest
available data.
In the first place, estimates for public expenditure in absolute terms
have been worked out for each country. Subsequently, in order to
facilitate the comparison between the different countries, two
relativizations are proposed.
In absolute terms, the countries with highest standards of welfare
states stand out as those with the highest expenditure on social
protection, mainly the Nordic countries (Sweden, Finland, Holland and
Denmark) followed by the United Kingdom and those belonging to the
continental model such as France, Germany and Italy, while the lowest
expenditure occurs in the countries of Eastern Europe. Regarding the
overall expenditure on disability, the countries that make up the
continental group (Belgium, Germany, France, Austria) are the ones with
the highest values, being at some distance from Italy, Sweden and Spain.
At the other extreme, Malta, Cyprus, Latvia, Estonia and Lithuania are
the countries with the lowest public expenditure on disability.
In order to establish a comparative analysis among the resources
allocated by the considered countries for disability care, in addition
to estimate absolute values, two relative estimations will be taken: the
first referred to the number of disabled persons in each country and the
second considering the total amount of public expenditure, in terms of
National Accounting ({''}Uses{''} in ESA 2010 terms).
The latter of these measures is easily accessible and its determination
is out of dispute. However if we expect to use as a reference the number
of disabled people in each country we will need to square the figures to
a common definition of disability for every country, definition which
does not really exist in Europe.
The Preamble to the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons
with Disabilities (2006), ratified by the EU in 2010, acknowledges that
disability is ``an evolving concept{''}, but also stresses that
``disability results from the interaction between persons with
impairments and attitudinal and environmental barriers that hinder their
full and effective participation in society on an equal basis with
others{''}. Defining disability as an interaction means that
``disability{''} is not an attribute of the person. Progress on
improving social participation can be made by addressing the barriers
which hinder persons with disabilities in their day to day lives.
Taking this into account, it has been applied the criteria of the
International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF,
World Health Organization, 2001), according to which, persons with
disabilities are those who face barriers to participation associated
mainly with a health problem or basic activity limitation of activity
proposing three levels of basic limitation of disability, each
determined by adding up life areas where a person face barriers. (Life
domain 1, 2 and 4)
Individually approached, the highest ratio values are found in
Luxembourg, Sweden, Finland, Austria, Denmark, Italy and France,
countries with a high developed model of welfare state. The smallest
figures belong to Romania, Bulgaria and Hungary, countries which are
redesigning their social policies. In the case of Luxembourg, the high
value is mainly due to the low number of registered disabled people
rather than a real high expenditure. Conversely, the case of the United
Kingdom is significant for the low value of the ratio due to the high
number of disabled people recorded.
As a second option for the relativization of public expenditure on
disability, our proposal consists in calculating for each country the
amount of expenditure on disability with regard to total public
expenditure. This new ratio will allow us to determine the relative
importance that each country ascribes to disability in budgetary terms,
with the pertinent implications about the social policy of the country
considered.
In 2012 and 2013, for all EU countries, public expenditure on disability
accounted for 2.83\% and 2.87\%, respectively, of total public
expenditure spent by public administrations.
The countries with the highest percentage during these two years are
Sweden, Denmark, Luxembourg, Finland and Croatia. In general, the
countries that make the greatest budgetary effort in spending on
disability are those with a higher expenditure per person, although
there are some specific deviations, such as Austria, France and Italy,
which, unlike UK, disclose a very small number of people with
disabilities.
Those countries with the lowest proportions regarding disability
spending on total public expenditure are Cyprus, Greece, Malta and
Ireland, all of which have budgetary and financial problems.
In Spain public spending on disability accounted for 2.53\% of total
expenditure in 2012 and 2.74\% in 2013, standing at the average rate.
To sum up, the following conclusions can be drawn in regard of
(regarding to) the relative figures in public expenditure on disability:
The countries with the highest values in both ratios are Luxembourg,
Sweden, Finland and Denmark
The countries with the lowest values in the both analysis are Cyprus,
Latvia and Slovakia.
Spain presents intermediate values on public expenditure per person with
disability so as in percentage for the total public expenditure.
Overall, the countries that make a greater budgetary effort in spending
for disability, are those that present a higher expenditure per person
and have the most developed social systems.
There are countries presenting some specific deviations, such as
Austria, France and Italy, which, unlike UK, have a very small number of
people with disabilities, a fact which would explain how they show a
high public expenditure per person and a small weight of this
expenditure compared to Total public expenditure.
The countries with the highest expenditure are the Nordic countries
known for their well-developed welfare state models, while the countries
with the lowest public spending are the Eastern European countries, in
the process of restructuring their social policies.
This approach to the measurement of public spending on disability gives
a greater visibility of the public attention to disability in Europe and
permits the comparability between the countries of our economic
environment.},

Title = {Pre-primary teachers' preparedness in integrating information and
communication technology in teaching and learning in Tanzania},
Journal = {INFORMATION AND LEARNING SCIENCES},
Year = {2019},
Volume = {121},

Pages = {79-94},

Abstract = {Purpose Integration and use of technology in teaching and learning in
the education sector from pre-primary education (PPE) to the higher
levels of education, is a policy issue. In developed countries,
including Tanzania, information and communication technology (ICT),
especially in PPE, is inadequately researched for laying evidence on its
applicability in instruction and learning. Therefore, this paper aims to
determine pre-primary teachers' preparedness in integrating ICT in
classroom instruction and challenges teachers face in integrating it for
child's meaningful learning. Design/methodology/approach Methods and
instruments: a qualitative transcendental phenomenological approach was
used in determining teachers' preparedness in integrating ICT in PPE in
Tanzania. It was further used to collect data that describe the teaching
and learning through the integration of ICT in every session as their
lived experience for pre-primary teachers. Its selection was appropriate
as it allowed researchers to systematically analyse for description the
commonalities and differences existing among the involved teachers in
integrating ICT in teaching and learning as their lived experiences
(Moerer-Urdahl and Creswell, 2004). To appropriately analyse teachers'
understanding and experiences regarding ICT and its integration in
teaching and learning in pre-primary classes, semi-structured interviews
and open-ended questionnaires were used for in-depth understanding of
the study problem. Semi-structured interviews were used to collect data
through open-ended questions where researchers took an average of 40 min
per session with participants' (teachers) using notebooks to take note
of their thoughts, feelings and beliefs about ICT integration in PPE.
Use of the semi-structured interview was based on the reality that it
provides in-depth information pertaining to participants' experiences
and viewpoints of a particular topic (Turner, 2010). Once the interview
session was complete, each teacher was given a questionnaire to fill in
for triangulating their experiences. Description of participants: a
total of 14 schools constituting 28 teachers were purposively sampled
and engaged in this study. Analysis of participants' demographic
characteristics indicates that all of the involved teachers had
certificate in teacher education that qualified them as primary school
teachers. Meanwhile, 18 (66.7 per cent) of the pre-primary school
teachers who were involved in this study were female with only 10 (33.3
per cent) had working experience at and above five years of teaching in
early grade classes. Study participants (teachers) from Itilima and
Meatu Districts were purposively involved in the study as their
experiences in young children's learning and contextual influences
(educational and training policy of 2014, the ICT policy of 2007, and
foreign studies) are potential in improving the quality of learning.
Study area: the current study was conducted in two districts (Itilima
and Meatu) all found in Simiyu region. The two districts were selected
and considered appropriate by the study as they constituted the 17 most
disadvantaged rural areas in Tanzania (Mosha et al., 2015). Authors
describe the two districts as having poor educational outcomes mainly
relatively low pass rates in the primary school leaving examination
results. In Itilima, one ward out of 22 was studied in which its six
schools {[}with a total of 12 teachers] among 87 schools in the district
were involved.
While in Meatu district, eight of 121 schools {[}with a total of 16
teachers] in one ward of 29 wards were studied. This implies that a
total of 14 schools and 28 teachers were involved in this study. Data
analysis: the data collected through the interviews and open-ended
questionnaires were subjected to content analysis procedures (reading
and re-reading notes and transcripts followed by a three-steps-coding
process consisting of open, axial and selective coding procedures). The
analysis process was informed by the Vagle's (2014) six steps for
phenomenological research data analysis procedure (holistic reading of
the entire text, first line-by-line reading, follow up questions, second
line-by-line reading, third line-by-line reading, and subsequent
readings). Practically, the researchers read and re-read the texts and
transcribed data from the language used during data collection that is
Kiswahili, into the reporting language that is English. Following
transcription, data were coded for developing categories of data through
axial and elective coding processes. Findings The data analysis was
conducted and results and its discussion are presented in three
sub-sections: preparedness of teachers in using ICT in teaching and
learning; teachers' views about the integration of ICT in teaching and
learning; and challenges faced by teachers in integrating ICT in
teaching and learning. Teacher's preparedness in the use of ICT in
teaching: exploration of teachers' preparedness in integrating ICT in
teaching and learning was preceded by exploration of teachers'
understanding of ICT in teaching and learning. Analysis revealed that
majority of teachers were aware about ICT in teaching and learning and
they understood it as the implementation of curriculum at school level
that involves use of ICT-based facilities such as television, mobile
phones, computer and radio. Teacher elaborated that appropriate use of
ICT-based facilities that would later develop children to potentially
improve their understanding and practical application in daily life.
Other teachers understood ICT in teaching and learning as use of printed
materials {[}newspapers and magazines] in facilitating pupil's learning
of planned lessons. While other teachers were aware of what ICT means
the second category of teachers as noted in their responses, had limited
understanding, as to them, ICT in education meant use of printed
materials. Difference in teachers' understanding of the ICT in teaching
and learning also indicate some teachers viewing it as use of ICT
facilities in developing children's competencies in the specific
subject. In the teachers' views, ICT is considered as subject content
and they delimited their understanding into that perspective ignoring it
as technological use for facilitating meaningful learning in all
subjects. Their views are based on the development of children with
competencies useful in facilitating further learning in the subject
known as Teknolojia ya Habari na Mawasiliano. Following the question
based on exploring teachers' understanding of ICT in teaching and
learning, researchers explored teachers' preparedness in using ICT in
teaching and learning. Table 1.0 illustrates teachers' multiple
responses regarding their preparation. Table I: teacher's preparedness
in using ICT in teaching and learning. S/N; preparedness; freq; and per
cent. Enhancing child's understanding on the use of ICT-based
facilities-20, 71.4; using remedial sessions teaching ICT-12, 42.
8; using ICT-based facilities for teaching other classes-8, 28.5. Table
1.0 illustrates that teachers are prepared to enable children use ICT to
access information and more knowledge related to their school subjects
and general life. They were of the view that ICT could serve well in
areas where text and supplementary books are scares or torn-out by
pupils because were poorly bound or due to poor quality of papers used.
Therefore, availability of ICT facilities in schools would become
important resource-materials for pupils, as well as teachers. For
instance, a teacher said that; Availability of ICT facilities, such as
computers in schools will help us in preparing notes or content for
supplementing their learning. Different from the paper-based notes,
computers will keep our notes properly compared to the papers that get
easily displaced and hard to retrieve notes when lost (Interview, 20
April 2016). In addition to the use of ICT facilities in serving as
resource material, their use in schools would aid pupils and teachers to
use them beyond teaching and learning. Teachers narrated that children
may find games and puzzles that all help in stimulating their thinking,
hence interest in schooling and further learning. Teachers also said
they are prepared to use even extra hours that are beyond school
timetable to ensure children learn well to meet the uncovered periods
once facilities are placed in school. Use of extra hours beyond the
normal school timetable comm.
Originality/value There is limited empirical evidence about teachers'
engagement in research particularly in PPE in Tanzania. Together with
limited research in the level of education, this study is the original
contribution to state of teachers at the school level about their
engagement in integrating information and communication technology for
informing education decision makers and administrators on matters of
focus to improve educational instruction and implementation of Tanzania
education and training policy, as well as the implementation of the ICT
policy of 2016.},

Title = {Barriers and Promotors to Health Service Utilization for Pelvic Floor
Disorders in the United States: Systematic Review and Meta-analysis of
Qualitative and Quantitative Studies},
Journal = {OBSTETRICAL \& GYNECOLOGICAL SURVEY},
Year = {2022},
Volume = {77},
Number = {12},
Pages = {731-733},
Month = {DEC},
Abstract = {Pelvic floor disorders (PFDs), such as pelvic organ prolapse (POP), anal
incontinence (AI), and lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTSs), affect
approximately 1 in 4 women in the United States. Many women endure PFD
symptoms without seeking care. The Andersen's health behavior model
explains health service utilization (HSU) using 4 domains: (1)
individual needs for care, (2) resources or enabling factors, (3)
predisposing factors, and (4) macrostructural/contextual factors. This
study aims to apply this model to PFDs to determine the rate of HSUs in
American women experiencing PFDs. The secondary objective was to examine
HSU behavior using a variation of Andersen's model: the authors limited
outcome variables to that of accessing PFD health services by any health
care provider. As the normal Andersen's health behavior model covers
broad personal health practices and general health behavior, this
modification allowed for increased precision of individual predictors
and relevance to urogynecology.
Following PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and
Meta-analyses) guidelines, the authors conducted a systematic review of
literature on PubMed, using search terms relevant to PFDs (in addition
to disparities in care access). Included were studies of
community-dwelling PFD symptomatic women living in the United States and
quantitative and qualitative studies with primary and/or secondary aims
addressing care-seeking or HSU behavior. For this study, PFDs were
defined as AI, LUTSs, and POP. Extracted data were as follows: first
author's last name, study aim, year of publication, study population
geographic location, study participant demographics, PFD types,
insurance, number of care-seekers and/or non-care-seekers, participant
age, race/ethnicity, education, income, employment, body mass index,
general health status, language used in study, symptoms, and other
barriers and/or promotors identified.
Overall, 44 publications were found that met the criteria of the study.
Of these, 36 were quantitative, 5 were qualitative, and 3 were
mixed-methods studies. The predominant focus of these studies was LUTSs
(33/44 studies), whereas only 2 were on POP, 5 onmultiple PFDs, and 4
onAI. More than half were publishedmore than a decade ago (25/44), and
themajority were based on self-reporting to national surveys. Women with
symptomatic PFDs exhibited a 37\% pooled prevalence of HSU, with
determinants identified across the first 3 domains in the model only
(macrostructural domains associated with HSU were not identified).
For the first domain, quantitative studies demonstrated that PFD symptom
severity and duration and preexisting depression were individual care
needs associated with greater HSU behavior. Consistent with the
quantitative data available in this study, qualitative data also
demonstrated that facilitators of HSU were (1) longer symptom duration
and (2) negative impact of PFD on quality of life.
For the resources domain, established primary or secondary care and
social support/networks increased HSU behaviors, but (oddly) higher
income and employment were barriers to care. Of note, home remedy
utilization was identified as a barrier to HSU in this category (taking
of herbal supplements, use of diapers, and other self-management
strategies).
Predisposing factors noted to increase HSU in this study were age older
than 50 years. Minority women were not well represented in this
analysis, but notably, Asian women were significantly less likely to
demonstrate HSU related to PFD. Qualitatively, there were no differences
in socioeconomic status of women who did or did not show HSU, but the
most common facilitator was awareness of PFD treatments, and common
barriers included misinformation and normalization of pelvic floor
symptoms.
Limitations of this study include the possibility of missed publications
with relevance (such as articles involving interstitial cystitis, sexual
dysfunction, birth trauma, and others, as they are important aspects of
PFDs). However, the team focused on studies related to common PFDs and
their HSU, as opposed to peripheral analyses or pelvic floor conditions.
Second, the study may be limited by using counts of themes and numbers
of reporting studies in the overall qualitative analysis. Finally,
significant heterogeneity in the studies indicates caution should be
used in interpreting the operating room and pooled HSU rate for each
identified determinant.
The study indicates that designing inclusive interventions, building
upon previous research frameworks, and addressing multilayered factors
are all required for improving care-seeking rates of women with PFDs. To
mitigate the glaring inequity in the United States of access to pelvic
floor care, the authors recommend research focused on HSU for patients
with POP or AI, implementation of multifaceted interventions, and
investigations into macrostructural factors affecting HSU.},

Title = {Socioeconomic status as a risk factor for HIV infection in women in

Journal = {JOURNAL OF BIOSOCIAL SCIENCE},
Year = {2005},
Volume = {37},
Number = {1},

Abstract = {This is a critical, systematic review of the relationship between
socioeconomic status (SES) and HIV infection in women in Southern,
Central and Eastern Africa. In light of the interest in micro-credit
programmes and other HIV prevention interventions structured to empower
women through increasing women's access to funds and education, this
review examines the epidemiological and public health literature, which
ascertains the association between low SES using different measurements
of SES and risk of HIV infection in women. Also, given the focus on
structural violence and poverty as factors driving the HIV epidemic at.
a structural/ecological level, as advocated by Paul Farmer and others,
this study examines the extent to which differences in SES between
individuals in areas with generalized poverty affect risk for SES. Out
of 71 studies retrieved, 36 studies met the inclusion criteria including
30 cross-sectional, one case-control and five prospective cohort or
nested case-control studies. Thirty-five studies used at least one
measurement of female's SES and fourteen also included a measurement of
partner's SES. Studies used variables measuring educational level,
household. income and occupation or employment status at the individual
and neighbourhood level to ascertain SES. Of the 36 studies, fifteen
found no association between SES and HIV infection, twelve found an
association between high SES and HIV infection, eight found an
association between low SES and HIV infection and one was mixed. In
interpreting these results, this review examines the role of potential
confounders and effect modifiers such as history of STDs, number of
partners, living in urban or rural areas and time and location of study
in sub-Saharan Africa. It is argued that STDs and number of partners are
on the causal pathway under investigation between HIV and SES and should
not be adjusted as confounders in any analysis. In conclusion, it is
argued that in low-income sub-Saharan Africans countries, where poverty
is widespread, increasing access to resources for women may initially
increase risk of HIV or have no effect on risk-taking behaviours. In
some parts of Southern Africa where per capita income is higher and
within-country inequalities in wealth are greater, studies suggest that
increasing SES may decrease risk. This review concludes that increased
SES may have differential effects on married and unmarried women and
further studies should use multiple measures of SES. Lastly, it is
suggested that the partner's SES (measured by education or
income/employment) may be a stronger predictor of female HIV serostatus
than measures of female SES.},

Title = {Harnessing foreign aid for the poor: role of institutional democracy},
Journal = {JOURNAL OF ECONOMIC STUDIES},
Year = {2020},
Volume = {47},
Number = {7},
Pages = {1689-1710},
Month = {OCT 26},
Abstract = {Purpose This paper examines the relationship between foreign aid,
institutional democracy and poverty. The paper explores the direct
effect of foreign aid on poverty and quantifies the facilitating role of
democracy in harnessing foreign aid for poverty reduction in Sub-Saharan
Africa (SSA). Design/methodology/approach The paper attempts to address
the endogenous relationship between foreign aid and poverty by employing
the two-stage least squares instrumental variable (2SLS-IV) estimator by
using GDP per capita of the top five Organization for Economic
Co-operation and Development (OECD) countries sending foreign aid to SSA
countries scaled by the inverse of the land area of the SSA countries to
stimulate an exogenous variation in foreign aid and its components. The
initial level of democracy is interacted with the senders' GDP per
capita to also instrument for the interaction terms of democracy,
foreign aid and its components. Findings The results suggest that
foreign aid reduces poverty and different components of foreign aid have
different effects on poverty. In particular, multilateral source and
grant type seem to be more significant in reducing poverty than
bilateral source and loan type. The study further reveals that
democratic attributes of free expression, institutional constraints on
the executive, guarantee of civil liberties to citizens and political
participation reinforce the poverty-reducing effects of aggregate
foreign aid and its components after controlling for mean household
income, GDP per capita and inequality. Research limitations/implications
The methodological concern related to modeling the effects of foreign
aid on poverty is endogeneity bias. To estimate the relationship between
foreign aid, democracy and poverty in SSA, this paper relies on a
2SLS-IV estimator with GDP per capita of the top five aid-sending OECD
countries scaled by the inverse of land area of the SSA countries as an
external instrument for foreign aid. The use of the five top OECD's
Development Assistance Committee (OECD-DAC) countries is due to the
availability of foreign aid data for these countries. However,
non-OECD-DAC countries such as China and South Africa may be important
source of foreign aid to some SSA countries. Practical implications The
findings further suggest that the marginal effect of foreign aid in
reducing poverty is increasing with the level of institutional
democracy. In other words, foreign aid contributes more to poverty
reduction in countries with democratic dispensation. This investigation
has vital implications for future foreign aid policy, because it alerts
policymakers that the effectiveness of foreign aid can be strengthened
by considering the type and source of aid. Foreign aid and quality
political institution may serve as an important mix toward the
achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals 2030 and the Africa
Union Agenda 2063. Social implications As the global economy faces
economic and social challenges, SSA may not be able to depend heavily on
foreign partners to finance the region's budget. There is the need for
African governments to also come out with innovative ways to mobilize
own resources to develop and confront some of the economic challenges to
achieve the required reduction in poverty. This is a vision that every
country in Africa must work toward. Africa must think of new ways of
generating wealth internally for development so as to complement foreign
aid flows and also build strong foundation for welfare improvement,
self-reliance and sustainable development.
Originality/value This existing literature does not consider how
democracy enhances the foreign aid and poverty relationship. The
existing literature does not explore how democracy enhances grants,
loans, multilateral and bilateral aid effectiveness in reducing poverty.
This paper provides the first-hand evidence of how institutional
democracy enhances the poverty-reducing effects of foreign aid and its
components. The paper uses exogenous variation in foreign aid to
quantify the direct effect of foreign aid and its components on poverty.},

Title = {Decoding Success: A Middle-Class Logic of Individual Advancement in a US
Suburb and High School},
Journal = {TEACHERS COLLEGE RECORD},
Year = {2010},
Volume = {112},

Pages = {2935-2987},

Abstract = {Background: Researchers have largely attributed achievement gaps between
different groups of students in the United States to differences in
resources, parent education, socioeconomic status (SES), and school
quality. They have also shown how, through their ``cultural
productions,{''} certain students may disadvantage themselves.
Focus: This article takes a different approach to understanding the role
of education in the perpetuation of social inequality in the United
States: It focuses on the construction of advantage. It seeks to explain
how students from middle-class to upper-middle-class communities
continue to pull ahead of students from other backgrounds.
Setting: A Midwestern U. S. suburb and its Blue Ribbon public high
school.
Research Design: A 4-year mixed-method ethnographic study that followed
a diverse group of high-and underachieving students through their entire
high school careers.
Data Collection and Analysis: Data were collected by a diverse research
team through participant observation and informal interviews in
classrooms and other relevant in-and out-of-school settings; over 60
tape-recorded interviews with teachers, administrators, and students,
including a diverse sample of 8 high-and low-achieving male and female
students from the class of 2003 and their parents; and consultation of
school documents and popular culture discourses and social narratives on
youth, parenting, and schooling. All observational and interview data
were analyzed and interpreted through an inductive process of constant
comparison across and within cases. In addition, a grounded survey
consisting of 44 forced-choice and 16 open-ended items was administered
in March 2002 to 605 students. Differences in GPA on the basis of
caregiving arrangements, mother's educational attainment, and SES were
compared using the chi-square statistic. Differences in student
responses to specific survey questions were compared across sex, SES,
GPA, grade, and residing caregiver groups in bivariate models also using
the chi-square statistic. These models were expanded to include multiple
student attributes (sex, SES, age, residing caregiver, and so on) using
multinomial logistical regression with key response contrasts as the
dependent variables.
Findings: The article describes the local cultural logic and set of
practices that were oriented toward producing both the substance and
image of competitive academic success, including (1) the class cultural
community achievement ideology; (2) the school's institutional
advantaging of its pupils; (3) student identities and strategies for
school success; and (4) parental intervention in school and manipulation
of educational policies. The piece's class cultural approach shows how
these beliefs and practices constitute a highly integrated system with
multiple internal feedback mechanisms that underlie its robustness. The
article also discusses some of the costs of this unswerving orientation
to individual advancement, including student stress and fatigue,
alienation from learning, incivility, and marginalization of minority
students.
Conclusions and Recommendations: The article demonstrates another way in
which class formation is mediated within the social fields of high
schools, showing how this integrated cultural system of individual
advancement is an important mechanism in the production of inequality in
the contemporary United States. In addition, in identifying some of the
deleterious effects of the role of competition in the cultural logic of
schooling in this community, the article recommends that teachers and
administrators enter into dialogues concerning the extent to which it is
foregrounded or backgrounded in their own classrooms and schools.},

Title = {Development of scales to study barriers and needed measures to address
gender-based violence in schools},

Abstract = {Teachers play a key role in the prevention of gender violence (GBV) in
the educational field. However, studies evaluating the opinions of
teaching and management staff regarding the necessary measures to
prevent GBV or the obstacles they must face when addressing this problem
in the educational field in our context are incipient. This work aims to
validate two scales to know the opinions and evaluations of the
educational personnel on the obstacles and the measures they consider
necessary to tackle and prevent GBV in schools. A descriptive,
cross-sectional and multicenter study was carried out to an intentional
non-probability sampling. The study population was the directing and
teaching staff of schools in the Province of Cordoba, Argentina. The
study variables were: sex, years of experience in the position, age,
educational level of the center (initial / primary / middle / tertiary),
area (urban / rural), locality where the faceto-face training was
carried out, prevention activities carried out in the educational center
focused on: students, families, and the educational team; GBV training
activities carried out by the educational team, women and/or families
identified in GBV situation, families with judicial restraining order,
team interventions education before GBV of the students and/or families,
staff of the educational team that has lived or is experiencing a
situation of GBV, meetings of the educational team with local community
organizations to articulate activity to prevent and/or address GBV, need
for training on GBV manifested by the teaching team. To measure opinions
on the obstacles and measures necessary to address GBV in schools, we
applied a self-administered questionnaire with two scales, one on
obstacles and the other on measures, based on Spanish scales. A
descriptive, bivariate analysis of the relationship of all variables
with sex, exploratory factor and Cronbach's alpha was performed.
Finally, a multiple regression model was constructed to test the
convergent validity using each factor as the dependent variable. The
first scale of ten items identifies a dimension of obstacles related to
family ties and existing prejudices in the educational community. The
second dimension, values aspects related to the scarcity of resources.
For its part, the thirteen item scale of measurements has three
dimensions. The first dimension, groups measures related to specialized
help to address GBV, such as prevention programs, materials, and
coordination with external organizations. The second groups the measures
related to the need to have gender mainstreaming measures in the
approach to GBV at school. The third dimension reflects the importance
of staff training on these topics. Bonds and biases function as major
obstacles for the elementary level. The importance given to specialized
help, as a measure to prevent GBV, is mainly associated with educational
teams that have expressed a need for training in this area. Those who
have carried out prevention activities and primary schools, value more
the mainstreaming of the gender perspective as a measure. Schools with
staff who have lived or are experiencing a GBV situation consider GBV
training as a highly relevant measure. The scales validated in this
study are reliable and include empirical dimensions of the assessments
of obstacles and measures in relation to the GBV approach in schools.},

Title = {HR practices for managing aging employees in organizations: the case of
Thailand},
Journal = {INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF EMERGING MARKETS},
Year = {2023},
Volume = {18},
Number = {5},
Pages = {1187-1215},
Month = {MAY 16},
Abstract = {Purpose This paper examines the human resource (HR) strategies and
practices that are considered to be particularly beneficial for aging
employees in organizations in Thailand, which is an underresearched
developing economy, from an employee perspective and the implications of
national institutions and cultures for the adoption and implementation
of those HR strategies and practices across organizations.
Design/methodology/approach The results of the study, based on a
cross-case analysis of seven organizations across industries, are
primarily drawn from structured interviews and focus groups with aging
employees, field visits and a review of archival documents and web-based
resources, including newspaper reports and magazines. Findings This
paper proposes that HR strategies that are appropriate for managing
aging employees in organizations in Thailand's developing economy can be
classified into four bundles: growth, maintenance, recovery and
regulation. Each bundle of HR strategies consists of several HR
practices that are appropriate for managing aging employees in
organizations. In particular, from the perspective of aging employees,
these HR practices help aging employees upgrade their skills, prepare
them to have a sufficient amount of financial savings after retirement,
ensure that they are safe, secure and healthy, help them feel that their
tacit knowledge and experience are still valuable, and help them perform
jobs that are appropriate for their physical health conditions.
Additionally, the adoption and implementation of the proposed HR
strategies and practices tend to be influenced by national institutions
in terms of deficiencies in the national skill formation system,
healthcare institutions, regulatory institutions and welfare state
regime and by the national culture in terms of reciprocity and respect
for elderly people (i.e. aging employees). However, there are five
important HR practices that are specifically appropriate for managing
aging employees in Thailand and other developing economies where the
level of household debt and/or personal debt is high, where the
increasing number of aging employees leads to high demand for medical
services when the medical services offered by private hospitals are
expensive, and where tacit knowledge and experience are important for
creating and maintaining firms' competitive advantage: (1) the
facilitation of financial planning, (2) safety and health training, (3)
annual health check-ups, (4) the appointment of aging employees as
advisors/mentors and (5) knowledge transfer/job enrichment. Research
limitations/implications One of the limitations of this research is its
methodology. Because this research is based on case studies of seven
firms located in Thailand, the findings may not be generalizable to all
other firms across countries. Rather, the aim of this paper is to
further the discussion regarding HR strategies and practices for
managing aging employees in organizations. Another limitation of this
research is that it does not include firms located in several other
industries, including the agricultural and fishery industry and the
financial services industry. Future research may explore HR strategies
and practices for managing aging employees in organizations located in
these industries. Moreover, quantitative studies using large samples of
aging employees who work in firms across industries might also be useful
in deepening the understanding of HR strategies and practices for
managing aging/retired employees in organizations.
Practical implications This paper provides practical implications for
top managers and/or HR managers of firms in Thailand and other
developing economies where the level of household debt and/or personal
debt is high, where the increasing number of aging employees leads to
high demand for medical services when the medical services offered by
private hospitals are expensive, and where tacit knowledge and
experience are important for creating and maintaining firms' competitive
advantage. In particular, the aging employees in this study identified
the HR practices that they perceive as being appropriate for aging
employees and that were already available in firms or that they expect
their firms to have but are currently missing. In this regard, HR
managers should take note of these good and appropriate HR practices to
ensure that they become part of official, structured HR strategies and
practices. This would ultimately help line managers and aging employees
think more positively about the future of aging employees within the
company and help retain invaluable aging employees over time. Social
implications This paper provides social/policy implications for the
government and/or relevant public agencies of Thailand and several other
developing economies where the majority of aging people do not have
sufficient savings to support themselves after retirement, especially
when these countries are becoming aging societies, where the increasing
demand for medical services cannot be adequately addressed by existing
public hospitals while private hospitals' medical prices are quite
expensive, and where intellectual property right (IPR) protection laws
are weak. That said, such governments should encourage firms located in
their countries to implement these HR strategies and practices for
developing, maintaining, deploying and supporting aging employees.
Originality/value This paper aims to contribute to the literature on
human resource management (HRM), specifically on HR practices for aging
employees, in the following ways. First, this study is different from
the previous studies in that it examines HR practices for managing aging
employees from an employee perspective, while most of the previous
studies in this area have focused on the management of such employees
from an employer perspective. In this case, it is possible that formal
company policies may be different from actual HR practices as perceived
by aging employees (Khilji and Wang, 2006). Second, this paper explores
the implications of national institutions and cultures of Thailand's
developing economy for the adoption and implementation of HR strategies
and practices that are appropriate for managing aging employees in
organizations. Finally, this paper examines HR practices that are
specifically appropriate for managing aging employees in Thailand and
other developing economies. The literature on HR practices for aging
employees has overlooked developing economies, including the
underresearched country of Thailand, as most of the studies in this area
have focused on developed economies. In fact, developed economies and
developing economies are very different in several respects, which may
influence the HR strategies and practices that are appropriate for
managing aging employees in organizations.},

Title = {A Qualitative Study of Psychosocial Factors in Patients With Knee
Osteoarthritis: Insights Learned From an Asian Population},

Year = {2023},
Volume = {481},
Number = {5},

Abstract = {BackgroundA patient's experience with knee osteoarthritis (OA) is
influenced by many psychosocial contributors that can influence the
impact of pain. Such factors are known to explain some of the
discordance between objective clinical parameters and patient-reported
levels of disability and treatment effectiveness. However, few data are
available to help clinicians understand the psychosocial factors that
apply to the world's many Asian populations. Insights gained from a
qualitative study in such a population may support targeted
interventions.Questions/purposesIn this qualitative study involving a
group of Asian patients with knee OA in Singapore, we asked: (1) What
psychologic factors contribute to patients' experiences, rehabilitation,
and recovery? (2) What social factors contribute to patients'
experiences, rehabilitation, and recovery?MethodsSemistructured
interviews eliciting broad patient experiences of managing knee OA were
conducted in an urban, referral-based tertiary hospital in central
Singapore. Patients were recruited if they met either of the following
criteria: Kellgren-Lawrence grade >= 3 (minimum of one knee); Knee
Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score <= 60; or the Pain average (P),
interference with Enjoyment of life (E), and interference with General
activity (G) (PEG) >= 5. All patients had a clinical diagnosis of knee
OA, were ambulatory in the community with or without a walking aid, had
not undergone partial arthroplasty or TKA, were prescribed nonsurgical
treatment, and were conversant in either English or Mandarin. Forty-six
patients (30 women and 16 men, mean age 64 years old) were recruited for
this study. A thematic analysis with elements of grounded theory and
framework analysis was performed using a deductive approach. Psychologic
influences specific to patients' behavioral and emotional responses to
pain, as well as social factors known to have an impact on the
experience of managing knee OA, were identified in the interview
transcripts and coded according to established factors from earlier
research. An inductive thematic analysis was then applied to the
remaining transcripts to identify new themes that emerged from the data.
Thematic saturation was attained when study team members agreed data and
thematic sufficiency were met in the 46 transcripts. The study team
discussed and deemed the 46 transcripts to contain sufficient insights
for a reasonably clear understanding of the codes and development of
themes to answer the study's research questions.ResultsSix main themes
related to psychosocial influences on pain emerged. Psychologic factors
were ``loss of face{''} because of knee OA, anticipation and avoidance
of pain and suffering, and a vicious cycle of negative emotional
experiences. The social factors we identified were social and family
support, workplace environment and employment uncertainty, and built
environment (patients' ability to navigate manmade structures and
facilities).ConclusionPsychosocial factors have an important impact on
patients' physical, psychologic, and social functioning. Although
several of our findings have been addressed previously, the phenomenon
of loss of face and the wide spectrum of social and family support
dynamics found in our Asian patients with knee OA were new findings.
With loss of face, patients were concerned about how others would view
the change in them, including movement changes because of knee OA.
They appeared to associate the use of walking canes with major
disability, loss of respect, and being discriminated against by others,
motivating patients to ``save face{''} by dissociating themselves from
those stigmas, even at the cost of mobility and independence. An
interplay of complex cultural processes (perceived social roles and
contributions to family, desire to avoid burdening family, help-seeking
behavior, and the preference for unsolicited social support) underpinned
by the value of collectivism impacted the behaviors and choices patients
exhibited.},

Abstract = {Since the end of the 18th century, the burning and use of hydrocarbons
has been the main source of energy used by mankind to achieve more
developed societies, ignoring -at first - the high cost of natural
resources involved. The use of this type of non-renewable energy has
caused serious imbalances in the atmosphere and, in turn, a great impact
on all the Earth's ecosystems, since any type of alteration in the
atmosphere causes, as a consequence, further transformations in the rest
of The conclusions reached by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate
Change (IPCC) are the results of more than 30 years of research
dedicated to the study of the climate system and its alterations. It is
not, therefore, a diffuse and banal reflection to be downplayed, quite
the contrary, as it recreates the present and future scenario to which
legal science must respond. Science, as usual, often leads the way in
international rule-making and standard-setting processes, and has been
decisive on climate change: there is an urgent need for a drastic
reduction in the levels of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions that human
activities release into the atmosphere. Indeed, even if the Paris
Agreement targets are met, resilience or adaptation and climate
stability will be some of the greatest challenges facing humanity. There
is now a clear scientific consensus on the unequivocal attribution of
climate change to human activities. However, the impacts of climate
variability are biased and the crosscutting issues that surround them,
such as inequity and the vulnerability of multiple groups, such as women
and children, are often displaced in the face of the severe damage
already being done to the Earth's oceans, atmosphere, ice and biosphere,
rapidly and pervasively. The greenhouse effect is an inherently
discriminatory phenomenon because it affects systemically, unequally and
disproportionately not only people belonging to a certain group, but
also constitutes an emerging, progressive and increasingly frequent and
intense damage to societies and nations that have not reached their
maximum levels of development, or that lack the measures or the
technology to adapt to climate variability. The purpose of this article
is twofold. On the one hand, it aims to identify the direct consequences
of anthropogenic global warming on women and children, interweaving the
scientific basis with legal science, which will allow us to
contextualize the current state of the situation in an objective manner;
on the other hand, it aims to define the position of the international
community on both issues, from a critical point of view, a human
rights-based approach, and with a special reference to the European
jurisdictional progress, which could contribute to enhance the
international climate cooperation. This also includes legal proposals
based on the principles of equal treatment and opportunities between
women and men, and intergenerational equity, the empowerment of citizens
to receive quality environmental education, the participation and
integration of both women and new generations in political decisions on
issues that affect them, and their inclusion in the discussion and
analysis of the impact of the climate emergency based on scientific
knowledge. This research is based on the axis of different theoretical
frameworks, and seeks both to establish connections between different
areas of knowledge and to provide an international legal response to the
problem of global warming for women and children through the analysis of
international law and its implementation.
In addition, this study is based on the principle of scientific evidence
that underpins the work of the IPCC and, more specifically, will build
on the efforts of Working Group II (WGII) of the Sixth Assessment Report
(AR6) on impacts, vulnerability, and adaptation. In the international
legal sphere, this paper aims to link two areas of international law as
major references: international human rights law and the legal framework
regulating climate change in the international forum. With regard to the
structure of this article, we will find an introduction to the state of
the question, followed by the theoretical-methodological aspects that
are intertwined in this research: the interweaving of postcolonial
feminist theory, scientific knowledge and legal argumentation. The
second section of this study aims to contextualize the impacts of
climate change on ecosystems and the most vulnerable groups, with
references to the contributions of Working Groups I and II of the IPCC
Sixth Assessment Report and other scientific studies that support the
position of the vulnerability of women and children to the adverse
effects of climate change. Within the second section, the IPCC has
concluded that countries are already experiencing increasing impacts
such as biodiversity loss, extreme weather events, land degradation,
desertification and deforestation, sand and dust storms, persistent
drought, sea level rise, coastal erosion, ocean acidification and
mountain glacier retreat, causing severe disruption to societies,
economies, employment, agricultural, industrial and commercial systems,
global trade, supply chains and travel. It has also reported thata there
has been a devastating impact on sustainable development, including
poverty eradication and livelihoods, threatening food security and
nutrition and water accessibility. Furthermore, a sub-section has been
created that will detail some of the impacts of climate change
specifically on women and children. In this sense, it is evident that
women's reproductive rights are affected, there is an increase in
vector-borne diseases with discriminatory tendencies based on gender,
the manifestation of socio-economic inequalities linked to climate
change, marginalisation, and the lack of capacity of children to adapt
to climate change. The third section is devoted to providing a legal
overview of the doctrine's position on the matter and the cases
currently being heard in some courts where the plaintiffs are women and
minors. This section highlights the impossibility of ignoring both the
feminist approach and the intergenerational equity approach. It is also
pointed out that in the elaboration of climate policies, it is not
enough to draw up a list of insufficient and empty climate policies to
comply with international commitments, since when it comes to demanding
the jurisdictional protection of human rights in the context of the
climate crisis, there are a series of complications rooted in the
evidentiary capacity that governs any judicial procedure. The
conclusions section contains both a synthesis of the different sections
of this article, as well as a series of legally and socially viable
proposals that contribute to the knowledge of climate change, its
different impacts, policies for prevention and adaptation to the risks
of extreme meteorological phenomena and, if necessary, keys that
reinforce the path towards climate litigation.},

Title = {Displacement and solidarity: An ethic of place-making},
Journal = {BIOETHICS},
Year = {2018},
Volume = {32},
Number = {9, SI},
Pages = {562-568},
Month = {NOV},
Abstract = {When the sick, injured, or dying arrive in a hospital - often along with
family members - they find themselves on an alien landscape. Elderly
people enter unfamiliar territory as they move from home or hospital
into a long-term care setting, which may be the first in a series of
placements for their final years. African Americans have been subjected
for decades to oppressive urban planning policies, including `serial
displacement', which have systematically uprooted and dispersed them,
their homes, and their places of business and worship. Around the world
currently, 65 million people are displaced, most trying to escape
uninhabitable environs involving war, persecution, drought, and famine.
Some of these migrants and asylum-seekers reside in and around refugee
camps but many are in urban enclaves or isolated outside them in
desperately inhospitable conditions. Some are trying to integrate and
make homes in new countries. Still more people are coming in perilous
flight from the unfurling effects of climate change. `We are
place-lings,' according to Ed Casey, `never without emplaced
experiences'. Lorraine Code, explaining our social and geographical
embeddedness and interdependence, describes us as `ecological subjects'.
By recognizing place, we can deepen our appreciation for the ways in
which we are radically relational, that is, interdependent with people,
non-human others, and particular locations. This robust and realistic
conception of our relational nature and its implications for health and
ethics deserves more attention. Elsewhere I have argued for `ethical
place-making' as morally obligatory for supporting the capability to be
healthy, or health justice, for ecological subjects. Drawing on this
conception of persons as creatures situated in specific social
relations, geographic locations, and atmospheric and material
environments, here I emphasize the importance of place and argue for an
ideal and practice of `ethical place-making' as an essential and,
indeed, ethically required way of demonstrating and forging future
solidarity and advancing justice, particularly health justice. The paper
is organized as follows. In Section 2, I explain what I mean by place
and examine the relationships, revealed by contemporary research in
social epidemiology, between place and health. In Section 3, I build on
the conception of persons as ecological subjects to ground what Carol
Gould has called `solidaristic recognition', which, as I will interpret
it, requires us to reckon with the significance of place in our
relational nature. I then link solidaristic recognition to the ideal and
practice of ethical place-making and, in turn, the capability to be
healthy, that is, health justice. I argue that place-based interventions
should be principal and prioritized ways of showing solidarity and
promoting justice - especially health justice - for ecological subjects,
above all those who are displaced and/or insecurely placed. Where
solidaristic relations do not prevail, ethical place-making has the
potential to catalyze and nurture them and, over time, to advance
justice.
A full discussion of the complex and contested relationship between
solidarity and global justice is beyond the scope of what I can expound
on here; I follow - and present concrete manifestations of - the views
of Iris Marion Young and Carol Gould in seeing solidarity as having, as
Gould puts it, a crucial `role not only in motivating people's
commitment to the realization of global justice but {[}also]
contribut{[}ing] to its construction or constitution.' In Section 4, I
present examples of ethical place-making inspired by solidaristic
recognition in a range of domains significant for bioethics - clinical
and long-term care and urban planning in the United States and
Netherlands, and refugee care and resettlement in Lebanon and Germany.
In the cases presented, I describe how the particular elements of
ethical place-making, emerging from solidaristic recognition, are
realized, and so support the conditions for the capability to healthy,
or health justice. Following this discussion, I move on to the
conclusion. Place `is no fixed thing'. The accounts of geographers,
philosophers, and some architects emphasize our embodied experience in
or around place(s), place's significance for the development of our
subjectivity and identity, and, finally, the complex social processes
that help to create, maintain, and transform places (and, in turn,
bodies and subjectivities). The understanding I follow here defines
`place' in terms of the material environment, and how we, as embodied
beings, move in, absorb, shape and are shaped by it, and how we, as
social agents, interact with and within it, gather and attach particular
meanings, and forge relationships and identities. A growing body of
research in social epidemiology using realist methods explains in
increasingly rich, if grim, detail the ways in which social conditions
and features of the external environment, including place-related
factors, affect health and longevity, and contribute to preventable
health inequities. We are talking about components of the built
environment, like land use, housing design, materials and quality,
street layout and transportation, exposure to toxins, and violence,
access to food and activity options; and urban design or decline. Air
and water quality, and access to green space are other place-related
factors. We should also include climate and the potential in specific
locations for climate-related disasters in our scope of concern.
So-called `determinants' such as these operate independently and
interactively at various levels and in different contexts to generate
harms to health and health inequities. On terrain more typical for
bioethics, clinical and other care settings, as currently configured,
are notoriously disorienting, anxiety-inducing, and in some ways
dangerous for physical, psychological, and existential health.
Researchers have detailed a range of effects of institutional design,
including the effects of noise and light on recovery times, and the ways
architecture can shape interactions and experiences. Long-term care
settings are infamous for poor conditions. A lack of light, private
space, and access to the outdoors, for example, and isolation from
broader social surroundings, adversely affect the health of elderly
people. People fleeing war, persecution, and famine endure desperate
conditions that threaten health. Many reside in camps (in the form of
transit camps and official refugee camps, detention centers, etc.
) while others dwell in slums or other settlements - primarily in urban
areas - segregated from the majority population. These people suffer
from a range of complex physical and mental health conditions. Before or
during transit and in camps and other settings, they face food
insecurity, risk of communicable disease, fear, violence, loss, and
other experiences. If there is access to health services it is often
restricted to acute medical care, and not equipped to adequately address
chronic or mental health conditions or the social determinants of health
needs. Migrants and asylum-seeking people thus lack crucial capabilities
to be healthy. It is not that a relationship between place and health is
a modern epiphany. Hippocrates' Airs, waters, and places, the
epidemiological work of Louis-Rene Villerme and Rudolph Virchow in the
19th century, and the histories of public health and urban planning, all
recognized the importance of environmental conditions. The asylums for
the mentally ill in the late 19th century reveal an attention, if not
yet evidence-based, for place in care and healing. Inspired by the Moral
Treatment movement, New Enlightenment intellectuals, and health
advocates like Dorthea Dix, Thomas Kirkbride established professional
guidelines on institutional layout and room design for patients. Realist
methods in social epidemiology, more recently, have deepened our
appreciation and understanding of the processes at work on our corporeal
nature, and our entanglement with the world around us. We are situated
socially, materially, and geographically, and vulnerable as creatures
who need care and who also need to `fit' with the places in which we
dwell and through which we navigate. We are, in short, ecological
subjects, beings for whom social interdependence and geographic
locatedness are vital. As I will argue below, health justice, or the
capability to be healthy, therefore demands thoughtful attention to
place and the conditions that create and sustain places. In the next
section, I explain the relationship between recognizing people as
ecological subjects and the ideal and practice of solidarity.
Solidarity, as I will define it, refers to reaching out through engaging
our moral imaginations across social and/or geographic distance and
asymmetry to recognize and assist others who are vulnerable, in some
cases, acutely, and, over time, advance justice. As a practice,
solidarity involves two core `enacted commitments'. The first commitment
is to engaging our moral imaginations and recognizing others in need, or
what I will describe below as solidaristic recognition. The second
commitment is to responsive action. This hybrid definition draws upon
the inspirational work of Iris Marion Young, Carol Gould, Fuyuki
Kurasawa, and Prainsack and Buyx, all of whom build upon a long and rich
history of interpretations of solidarity. Recognizing the suffering of
the displaced and others who are `implaced' in conditions unable to
sustain them follows from the most minimal appreciation of people as
ecological subjects, relational creatures who are densely enmeshed in
social relations as well as spatial locations. While my analysis differs
substantially, to describe this here I use Carol Gould's term,
`solidaristic recognition'. Gould distinguishes between what she calls
`rigorous recognition' and `generous recognition'.
Rigorous recognition appreciates the equality of all people through an
essentially cognitive process involving an acknowledgment of our fellow
humanity. The generous genre, which she recasts as `solidaristic
recognition', involves empathy, or an affective link with others, and
focuses on our `mutual interdependence and common needs'. Solidaristic
recognition conceives of others as `equal in their difference', that is,
their distinctive social group membership and individual particularity.
On my own interpretation, solidaristic recognition has two varieties,
neither of which relies on empathy: basic and relational, responsible
recognition. If we conceive of people in ecological terms, basic
recognition (similar to Gould's `rigorous recognition') might be
expanded beyond its appreciation of everyone's equal moral worth to take
account of the significance of place for the equitable flourishing of
all ecological subjects. This most basic form of recognition
acknowledges that we are equal in part because we all share a need to be
`in place' in settings that can sustain us and support our capacities. A
second, more ethically responsible, form of recognition I will call
relational solidaristic recognition emerges from reckoning more
thoroughly with our radically relational nature as ecological subjects.
This reckoning demands that we conceive of ourselves and others as
embedded but also that we understand that we are constitutive of one
another and our environs. Geographers have described this in terms of
the intersubjectivity of identity and place. In her philosophical
account of ecological subjectivity, Lorraine Code underscores the idea
that we are `made by and making {[}our] relations in {[}asymmetrical]
reciprocity with other subjects and with horizontal ellipsis multiple,
diverse locations'. Seeing not just identities, but also, critically,
place in relational terms, highlights `the variety of interactions
between people who are located differently that go into making places'.
As Iris Young puts it, we `dwell together' in `complex, causal'
relations of interdependence and in specific atmospheric and material
conditions on earth in geographic regions and neighborhoods, in homes,
and institutions of care and employment. We ecological subjects, then,
contribute to the construction of place - often unintentionally -
through actions and interactions within a larger context of social
structures and processes. These structures and processes serve to enable
some people in the realization of their capacities, yet constrain
others, creating and/or sustaining structural injustice. This is
evidenced, for example, in urban planning policies that spawn
residential segregation or global economic and trade policies that
compel health care workers to migrate and deepen health inequities in
source countries. While basic solidaristic recognition can allow for or
has the potential to generate ethical place-making, relational
recognition understands the ways that our own subjectivities,
identities, and places of dwelling as ecological subjects are formed in
relation to other identities in other places and, crucially, that this
generates responsibilities for justice. It is in this sense that
relational solidaristic recognition is a more responsible form: it
appreciates better-situated ecological subjects' contributions to the
injustice suffered by the displaced or precariously placed, and aspires
to respond and work toward promoting justice.
Responsiveness , an important epistemic and, in turn, ethical capacity,
is a crucial element for enactments of solidarity in the view I want to
develop. Both Joan Tronto and Elise Springer assign `responsiveness' a
prominent place in their work. Springer situates `responsiveness' within
virtue ethics. On her view, it involves a kind of adaptability,
particularly in unfamiliar moral terrain, or in the face of concerns
that `resist clear representation'. Springer posits responsiveness as
also involving a commitment to `extend a temporally continuous thread of
attention' or giving one's moral attention over time, not episodically
or reactively. Tronto identifies responsiveness as one of four ethical
elements of care, casting it as a moral capacity that involves vigilance
`to the possibilities for abuse that arise with vulnerability'. I would
add another element as integral to responsiveness, drawn specifically
from ecological epistemology: an ability to show finely tuned
sensitivity to context, that is, the particularity of people and
circumstance, and give attention and action that is fitting. Solidarity,
enacted, should emerge from a disposition committed to responsiveness
understood in terms of these capacities, if it is to meet the mark. In
the next section I turn to responsive action that arises from
solidaristic recognition, in particular, efforts at place-making for the
displaced. Innovation, inspired by ecological thinking and increasingly
evidence-based, is underway. `Place-making' is a set of intentional
practices spanning different disciplines that targets neighborhoods,
parks and paths, features of landscape, housing developments,
streetscapes, long-term care facilities, and hospitals. With and without
attention to health, it is either referenced explicitly or somehow
central to key international documents and declarations including the
Sustainable Development Goals and UN Habitat's New Urban Agenda. It is
on the agendas of the World Health Organization (WHO), the US Centers
for Disease Control (CDC), even the World Bank, some think tanks and
foundations, and a major US corporation. Public health leaders point to
place-based interventions as `the new frontier'. In other work I have
interpreted ethical place-making, a notion that first surfaced in the
geography literature, as a core component of an enabling,
capabilities-oriented conception of justice. Grounded in ecological
thinking and an ecological conception of persons, ethical place-making
understands all people as embedded socially and spatially, and often
enmeshed in relationships of structural injustice that threaten health.
Key elements of ethical place-making include: nurturing relations of
care and interdependence; protecting bodily integrity; supporting
autonomy, not interpreted in terms of individual self-reliance, but in
the relational sense that sees us as originating, persisting, and
flourishing within relations of care and interdependence, given ongoing
opportunities for self-directed thought and action; promoting stability
and a sense of rootedness and, at the same time, supporting generative
movement; and finally, where necessary, responding to inequities. Below
I offer selected examples of place-making drawn from a range of domains
pertinent to bioethics.
After describing them, I explain why they count as instances of ethical
place-making inspired by (and potentially generating more) solidaristic
recognition and how they stand to promote - especially health - justice
and in some cases address health inequities. I start at the level of
community and public health with an urban planning example, and from
there, turn to a clinical and then a long-term care setting. These three
case studies come from the global north. The final examples explore
(mostly health-centered) place-making efforts in refugee reception and
resettlement, sketching innovations in Germany and also Lebanon, a
country that borders the war in Syria and ranks fourth worldwide as a
host to refugees. Further research will yield additional instances of
solidarity and place-making, particularly for health, in other parts of
the world.
In {[}a] system of the city as weaving, {[}creating] crosswise threads
enables solidarity, and fundamental to solidarity is the free system of
movement horizontal ellipsis `Intentional shrinkage', `sorting', and
`serial displacement' are terms given to the urban land use and
`development' policies that systematically shredded the social and
material fabric in and around African American neighborhoods in New York
City. Public health researchers have linked these policies and the
consequent displacement of families, businesses, churches and more, to
the AIDS epidemic, addiction, asthma, post-traumatic stress, and
obesity. Working together, citizens, planners, and researchers responded
with the Giraffe Path (GP), a 6-mile trail from Central Park to the
Cloisters. The walking and biking path is a project emerging explicitly
from the kind of solidarity described above: the recognition of the city
and its people as ecologically embedded, with enduring health inequities
as a result of displacements, and responsive action in the form of
(re)creating place with and for ecological subjects. The GP is based on
a conception of the city and its neighborhoods and residents as
interdependent - and is designed to restore connections between formerly
fractured communities around and across the Harlem River and, at the
same time, to support outdoor physical activity. The closure of the
bridge, that had long linked neighbors, as a `crime-prevention' measure
for gentrifying neighborhoods, severed (in a pattern repeated in cities
everywhere) relationships between people according to categories of
class and race. By (re)connecting places and people and mending - as its
designers say, `weaving', `re-stitching' - the GP helps restore these
and cultivate new relations. At the same time, as part of the City Life
Is Moving Bodies (CLIMB) Project, the GP's creation of flow and
unimpeded movement is being celebrated as `a victory for the city's
entire circulatory system'. The attention paid to (solidaristic
recognition of) the importance of place for health and most
significantly, health inequities, in this instance of ethical
place-making is an exception and not the norm. Urban renewal policies
and planning tend to prioritize physical, economic, and social issues,
yet few focus explicitly on health or show concern for health equity.
Another essential dimension for future solidarity is the potential for
political engagement generated by the GP.
As Iris Young argues (and the inset quote implies), segregation obscures
from the affluent an appreciation of their privilege, and, by limiting
interaction, constrains political communication. This erodes the
potential for solidarity and perpetuates social injustice. The GP
designers aspire to promote solidaristic recognition through
facilitating new interactions, forging new relations, and evolving as
ecological subjects.
We must pay attention to the lived spatial significance of patients'
experience of health and illness if we are going to treat them fully and
well. Doing so is one step of paying attention to a person horizontal
ellipsis The terrain and overall ambience of the clinical setting is
famously hostile to non-medical people, notably the ones it exists to
serve. Place-centered innovation in hospitals and other centers of care
is a growing niche, recognizing the harms done to ecological subjects -
here patients and their families - in the `care' of institutions built
as medical assembly lines organized around time until discharge or
demise. One neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) at the Royal United
Hospital in Bath, U.K., recognizes the importance of place for the
health and well-being of vulnerable ecological subjects and puts into
practice a concept known as `secure base', which wraps around patients
and families `like a hug'. The unit's design also demonstrates
solidarity with them in recognizing the effects of typical clinical
settings and, in contrast, boasts lots of natural light, greatly reduced
noise, private nooks, and a horseshoe-shape design that reflects the
progression a newborn will take from intensive care to a neonatal room.
In this case of ethical place-making, innovators aim to create a habitat
that nurtures overlapping relations of care wherein babies sleep longer,
and parents are perhaps a little less distressed, and more able to
participate in care and interact with clinical care providers. As noted
above, the structure of this temporary dwelling enables families to
better understand, through their embodied experience, the clinical
pathway the infants will follow until discharge, which in turn likely
gives a boost to their sense of agency and empowerment and helps to
level the playing field with clinicians. Designed by a long-term care
nurse in response to her observations and experience of existing
institutions, Hogeway Village accommodates elderly people with dementia
in a setting meant to resemble a real European neighborhood. It has a
market, cafe, salon, theater, sidewalks, and ample green space.
Different models, tailored to appeal to specific social and cultural
groups, are available. Staff engage with residents without clinical garb
and simultaneously provide skilled care. Family members are integrally
involved in care plans. Hogeway is built to protect yet not restrict,
allowing residents a wide range of movement and access to the outdoors.
The availability of palliative care ensures that residents do not have
to relocate at the end of life, which allows for continuity of care and
relationships. Another benefit is that family members need not navigate
new terrains, or settings, of care or transportation as elders' needs
evolve. Emerging research on long-term care settings designed more like
homes and communities suggests that residents are more socially engaged
and active, and experience better overall `well-being'.
Preliminary evidence also suggests that integrating families in care can
improve relations with care workers, as well as resident care and
health.
European cities and regions have demonstrated their horizontal ellipsis
willingness to express solidarity with horizontal ellipsis the world's
refugees via participation in resettlement. Solidarity is at the moral
center of humanitarian action, and place-making by other names has long
been integral to humanitarian operations. From an emphasis on emergency
and temporary assistance, humanitarians have expanded the scope and
practice of `solidarity' given the nature of current conflicts and the
creation of dependencies that may lead to more sustained commitments.
Their work now increasingly overlaps with development efforts to bolster
host countries' capacities to receive, resettle, and integrate
asylum-seekers and other migrants for the long term. Solidarity, indeed,
is the basis of commitments to refugee resettlement in international
humanitarian law. In 2004, the Mexico Plan of Action to Strengthen
International Protection of Refugees in Latin America (MPA), which
encompassed regional responsibility sharing, the expansion of
resettlement space, reception capacity, and long-term integration,
highlighted solidarity as a guiding principle for support of refugees
from Columbia and their host countries. Northern Europe has been the
preferred destination for refugees from Syria and other places where war
has driven people from their homes. Germany, especially its cities,
hosts more recent asylum-seekers than any other EU nation. Urban areas
have absorbed two-thirds of the world's refugees and now face the work
of integration. The region offers myriad examples of efforts in ethical
place-making spawned by solidaristic recognition. In both Hamburg and
Berlin, organizing around place has been a key strategy in welcoming and
helping to integrate new arrivals. In Berlin, city planners have
employed a strategy of creating container villages to help refugees feel
secure and foster a sense of embeddedness-in-community. While
formalized, state-administered efforts have unfolded, citizen volunteers
have designed innovative responses to link refugees with needed
services, helping to integrate them and provide a sense of place. The
coordinated state and civil society effort, in particular, is an
inspiring example of politically and socially constructed solidarity,
supported and advanced by what Christine Straehle calls a `cosmopolitan
avant-garde' of citizens. Hamburg is also innovative in linking services
across sectors like food, shelter, education, work skills, and legal
advice, appreciating the importance of integrating services for those
who have endured profound dispersion and fragmentation. The city
addressed housing needs by redesigning existing buildings and engaged
local communities in deciding on locations in order to help ensure a
welcoming, safe environment and avoid the possibility of local
neighborhood resistance. The countries, such as Jordan, Lebanon, and
Turkey that serve as the principal hosts to refugees fleeing Syria,
Afghanistan, and elsewhere, are organizing around so-called `resilience'
strategies, which aim at bolstering host countries' capacities to accept
and integrate asylum-seekers and other migrants for the long-term. This
management philosophy deserves more sustained discussion. I highlight
here another civil society initiative involving ethical place-making.
In Lebanon during the war (1975-1990) public spaces were among the most
dangerous places. Now they serve as temporary shelter areas for migrants
and refugees displaced from neighboring conflict who face fear,
discrimination, and violence in their new environs. In this context, one
architect saw an opportunity: `I thought by promoting place-making in
Lebanon we can join the efforts of local {[}civil society] actors, since
horizontal ellipsis place-making is based on networking and bringing
people together.' With his guidance, youth in Beirut participated in
identifying and recreating public spaces with the aims of reducing
violence, promoting inclusion, interaction, and community-building.
Along with place-making for the sake of social integration, place-based
interventions in healthcare services are surfacing in response to
contemporary migration patterns. Adapting to the mobility of many
displaced people who are, not accessing services in camps, for instance,
humanitarian and local actors have reorganized healthcare delivery. The
Blue Dot Hubs developed by UNHCR and partners to provide care and
services to people en route are a specific example of a response - a
place-making intervention to `changing therapeutic geographies' in
modern crises. In the context of resettlement, interventions focused on
the creation of `therapeutic landscapes' aim specifically at displaced
children as they resettle in new countries. Through recultivating
cultural traditions, building social networks, and creating safe places,
young people can create new homes. These examples depict different modes
of displacement and distinct populations situated in specific kinds of
settings and in particular - yet in all cases asymmetrical - relations
of power. In each case, responsive action, keenly sensitive to context,
emerges from solidaristic recognition, either basic or relational. In
some cases it aims explicitly at justice. We can see specific elements
of solidarity-sparked ethical place-making across cases. Support for
relations of care is at the heart of the efforts made in the Bath NICU
and Hogeway Village designs, and also in the GP and initiatives for
refugees. Attention to the need for rootedness and movement is
manifested in these civil society efforts to welcome and create
material, social, economic, and political space for refugees; it is also
an organizing principle for the GP, Hogeway, and Bath's NICU.
Transformative autonomy is evident in the GP, the therapeutic landscape
projects, Hogeway, and the NICU. Attention to inequities, especially
health inequities, motivates the GP and Blue Dot Hubs. In all, the
creators - architects, designers, planners, carers, and citizens -
recognize the `users', let us say `dwellers', as ecological subjects and
respond with concerned attention to their distinctive needs, in real
time and over time with the aim of supporting their capabilities,
chiefly to be healthy, and in some cases to remedy injustice. I have
argued that recognizing all people as ecological subjects enables us,
indeed compels us, to forge relations of solidarity and promote justice
through ethical place-making with those who are vulnerable through their
insecure relationship to place.
On the moral landscape(s) of bioethics, an ethic of place-making
expresses and has rich potential for nurturing bonds of solidarity along
with advancing health, social, and global justice with patients and
families, elderly people transitioning to long-term care, urban
populations confronting health inequities, asylum-seekers dwelling in
precarious conditions, and perhaps others. The author declares no

Footnotes Drawing on a conception of people as `ecological subjects',
creatures situated in specific social relations, locations, and material
environments, I want to emphasize the importance of place and
place-making for basing, demonstrating, and forging future solidarity.
Solidarity, as I will define it here, involves reaching out through
moral imagination and responsive action across social and/or geographic
distance and asymmetry to assist other people who are vulnerable, and to
advance justice. Contained in the practice of solidarity are two core
`enacted commitments', first, to engaging our moral imaginations and
recognizing others in need and, second, to responsive action.
Recognizing the suffering of displacement and responding through
place-making should follow from even the most simplistic understanding
of people as `implaced'. Recognition, furthermore, that places are
created and sustained, transformed, or neglected in ways that foster or
perpetuate inequities, including health inequities, generates
responsibilities concerning place-making. Place-based interventions, on
either count, should be principal and, indeed, prioritized ways of
showing solidarity for the vulnerable and promoting justice. Where
solidaristic relations do not prevail, place-making can catalyze and
nurture them, and over time advance justice. On the moral landscapes of
bioethics, the terrain where care and health are or should be at the
center of attention, an ethic of place and place-making for those who
have been displaced - patients, the elderly, urban populations, and
asylum-seekers, for instance - expresses and has rich potential for
nurturing bonds of solidarity.},
