Is Refugee Health Equity Possible in the Context of Structural Oppression and Protracted Displacement
Mental health promotion interventions have some evidence of improving well-being outcomes among children in humanitarian settings. Yet, are they sufficient to ensure health equity, particularly in contexts of structural oppression and protracted displacement? We describe Qaderoon (We Are Capable), a year-long social skills building intervention for mental health promotion among Palestinian refugee children, which was implemented in 2008–2009 in B…
How international research consortia can strengthen organisations’ research systems and promote a conducive environment and culture
Research systems and cultures have been criticised for their detrimental effect on members’ mental health and well-being. Many international research programmes operate through research consortia that have the resources to make a substantial contribution to improving the research environment in their member organisations. This paper collates real-life examples from several large international consortia-based research programmes about how they str…
The perception of risk in contracting and spreading Covid-19 amongst individuals, households and vulnerable groups in England
Participants developed their own understanding of COVID-19 risk perception through personal experience and comparison with others around them, irrespective of vulnerability status. COVID-19 guidance was not complied with as intended by the government, and at times even rejected due to lack of trust. The format in which future pandemic guidance is conveyed must be carefully considered, and take into account individuals' experiences that may lead t…
Guidance and conceptual tools to inform the design, selection and evaluation of research capacity strengthening interventions
This practice note presents four conceptual tools intended to support the design, selection and evaluation of research capacity strengthening (RCS) programmes in low-income and middle-income country settings. The tools may be used by a wide range of RCS stakeholders, including funders, implementing parties and programme evaluators, to guide decision-making in lieu of largely as yet unavailable empirical evidence. The first conceptual tool guides …
The passage of tobacco control law 174 in Lebanon
Progress in tobacco control policy making has occurred worldwide through advocacy campaigns involving multiple players- civil society groups, activists, academics, media and policymakers. The Framework Convention on Tobacco Control (FCTC)-the first ever global health treaty-outlines evidence-based tobacco control policies. Lebanon ratified the FCTC in 2005, but until 2011, tobacco control policies remained rudimentary and not evidence-based. Begi…
Developing a logic model for youth mental health
Although logic models are now touted as an important component of health promotion planning, implementation and evaluation, there are few published manuscripts that describe the process of logic model development, and fewer which do so with community involvement, despite the increasing emphasis on participatory research. This paper describes a process leading to the development of a logic model for a youth mental health promotion intervention usi…
