Risks, rewards and responsibilities
Platform work has attracted global policy attention as part of efforts to extend decent work. Such work is critiqued for fostering insecurity by obscuring employer–employee relationships, but in development contexts it also offers accessible employment, especially for excluded groups. This article examines South African platform workers’ experiences of wages, security, and responsibilities and considers implications for reimagining the social con…
Youth Employability programmes in South Africa
This article analyses a subset of eight youth employability programmes (YEPs) operating across South Africa using a panel survey of participants. It assesses the features of these YEPs and their links to subsequent employment while controlling for individual characteristics. Each YEP delivered technical and soft skills training, alongside other programme features offered in different combinations. Additionally, a financial capability intervention…
Coaching wellness, health, and success
While there are low percentages of Black males as educators, psychologists, pediatricians, and psychiatrists, Black students are more likely to have a Black male athletic coach. Previous research on the role of Black male coaches has demonstrated that there are several positive outcomes (i.e., academics, social skills, and reducing misbehaviors to deter criminalization) when the racial identity of Black students is matched with a Black coach. Bla…
Finding common ground
Indigenous and traditional peoples, practitioners and researchers navigate complex social ecological landscapes. The importance of dialogue across cultures, languages, disciplines, and forms of knowledge is increasingly recognised as needed in landscape restoration and environmental governance at multiple scales. A process called adaptive doing was used in two workshops in South Kalimantan Province, followed by remote collaboration among team mem…
Reflections on integrated research from community engagement in peatland restoration
Community engagement and integrated research are key approaches to solving complex socio-ecological challenges. This paper describes the experience of bringing together a team of natural and social scientists from Australia and Indonesia in the ‘Gambut Kita’ (translated as ‘Our Peat’) project. Gambut Kita aims to produce new knowledge and support efforts to successfully, and equitably, restore Indonesia’s tropical peatlands and ensure that liveli…
Differences in employment and income poverty between people with and without disabilities in South Africa
There is a substantial body of literature that confirms the cyclical relationship between poverty and disability. However, while there are studies that have sought to understand the relationship between income poverty and disability and how disability intersects with other factors to influence poverty, most do not offer insight into how this relationship is shaped – particularly given the limited availability of panel data. Furthermore, there is …
Why Is Youth Unemployment So Intractable in South Africa? A Synthesis of Evidence at the Micro-Level
Evidence of non-economic indicators as markers of success for youth in youth employability programs
Stigma of persons with disabilities in South Africa
A Guy 'Does' and You Don't, They Do You Instead
The intensive research focus on young people's sexuality in relation to risk means that young people's sexuality is often pathologized. We thus miss out on the day-to-day lived realities of how young people negotiate gender identity as well as sexuality in complex, nuanced, but normal ways. This article contributes to an emerging body of research that highlights how young people negotiate gender identity and sexuality in their day-to-day lives, b…
Risky behaviour
Theories of youth risk taking range from the realist to the sociocultural. Much of this theorising, particularly in the field of epidemiology, has been strongly influenced by the Health Belief Framework. More recently, attention has shifted to understanding how young people perceive risk and what makes some of them resilient to risk taking. In this article we develop a framework that brings together diverse theoretical perspectives on youth risk …
I am a mother’
In studies of sexual risk behaviour among youth, the role of dominant conceptions of masculinity and femininity has received increasing attention. However, where research has sought to explore femininity, it has predominantly focused on adolescent girls. This paper departs from previous research by offering insights into how young women negotiate their femininity as they transition from adolescence to adulthood and encounter changing social conte…
Does school breakfast make a difference? An evaluation of an in-school breakfast programme in South Africa
Disparities in Quality of Life Among South Africans With and Without Disabilities
The importance of intersectionality in disability and gender studies
Investigations into the relationship between poverty and disability are limited, particularly from a South African perspective. In addition, when this relationship is addressed it is usually in isolation of other social characteristics, such as gender. As such the intersections between disability, gender, race and poverty are often overlooked – yet internationally research points to gender gaps in outcomes for people with disabilities. This brief…
‘But I've got something that makes me different’
Much current research about young people is located in studies on risk behaviour and consequently tends to pathologise their actions and behaviour. Particularly poor, young, African men are often regarded as the drivers of a range of risk behaviours from sexual risk to crime and violence. By drawing on an ethnographic study conducted in an informal settlement of Gauteng, South Africa, this article challenges common perceptions of young men as ris…
The disability–poverty nexus and the case for a capabilities approach
Debates about the relationship between poverty and disability continue and are important in that they contribute to policies regarding how best to address the needs of disabled people living in conditions of poverty. Increasingly, researchers have begun to use Sen's capabilities approach in understanding disability. However, the approach has not been adequately applied to understand the nature of the poverty and disability nexus, particularly in …
The effectiveness of television advertising campaigns on generating calls to a national Quitline by Māori
These television advertising campaigns were effective and cost effective in generating calls to a national Quitline by Māori. Health authorities should continue to explore the use of both "threat appeal" style media campaigns and culturally appropriate campaigns to support Quitline use by indigenous peoples
