The setting is secondary schools in Kenya which, after the 1998 attacks by al-Quaeda and later inter- and intra-community conflicts during the 2008 election, has seen a resurgence in externally sponso…

  • Non-Household Populations

    Open AccessRoy Carr‐hill, Roy Carr-HillARTICLEJournal of Social Policy2015Citada por: 3Referencias: 15

    Data from household surveys have increasingly been used as a basis for social policy. They are generally inappropriate for obtaining information about the poorest, and therefore for policies concerned with tackling poverty and deprivation. They omit certain groups by design: the homeless; those in institutions; and mobile, nomadic or pastoralist populations. In addition, in practice, they typically under-represent those in fragile, disjointed or …

  • Measuring development progress in Africa

    Roy Carr‐hill, Roy Carr-HillARTICLECanadian Journal of Development…2014Citada por: 1Referencias: 17

    In developing countries, assessments of progress towards development goals are based increasingly on household surveys. Typically, they omit by design: the homeless; those in institutions; and mobile, nomadic or pastoralist populations. Moreover, in practice household surveys typically underrepresent: those in fragile, disjointed households; slum populations and areas posing security risks. Those six subgroups constitute a large fraction of the “…

    In developing countries, population estimates and assessments of progress towards the Millennium Development Goals are based increasingly on household surveys.

Typically, they omit by design: those not in households because they are homeless; those who are in institutions; and mobile, nomadic or pastoralist populations. In addition, in practi…

    After more than a decade of the AIDS epidemic in Thailand, the number of children whose parents are living with HIV or have died from AIDS is increasing significantly and it has been reported that these children are often discriminated against by their peers.

  • Developing a robust resource allocation formulae for police

    Roy Carr‐hillARTICLEPolicing & Society2000Citada por: 1Referencias: 2

    With increasing decentralisation, the way in which central government resources are allocated between geographical areas for different services is of increasing importance. Procedures currently used by the English Home Office to allocate resources, based on regression analyses of data at the level of the Police Authorities, are flawed, because the variations between Authorities are more likely to be a reflection of historical variations in polici…

  • The state of cooking in England

    Open AccessMartin Caraher, Paul Dixon et al.ARTICLEBritish Food Journal1999

    This article uses data from the 1993 Health and Lifestyles Survey of England to present findings on how, why and when people use cooking skills; where and from whom people learn these skills. The implications for policy are explored. The survey data suggests that socio‐economic status and education are associated with the sources of people’s knowledge about cooking. The first or prime source of learning about cooking skills was reported to be mot…
