This study e x amines variations in project evaluation practices among 10 major international development organisations and their alignment with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Based on a mixed‐methods analysis of 4112 project evaluation reports (2015–2017 and 2020–2022) across six regions and 11 sectors, it reveals persistent methodological disparities, arising from differences in Likert scales, rubrics and the adoption …
“Popular” and “Literary” Caribbean Historical Fiction by Valerie Belgrave and David Dabydeen
This essay compares the ways two very different Caribbean historical novels explore different types of historical truth through their contrasting approaches to historical “facts.” The first is Valerie Belgrade's Ti Marie (1988), set mostly in Trinidad during the years 1777 to 1803. Widely considered a popular romance, Ti Marie does indeed contain elements of the fairy tale that appeal to the consumer of popular fiction. Nevertheless, several crit…
Ethical food consumption in the digital age
Climate change is an emerging global reality with widespread effects on ecosystems and human communities. However, its significant impact on livestock animals often goes underdiscussed as more focus is given to impact of livestock production on climate change. Implementing high-welfare systems, such as digital monitoring of animals, can help mitigate climate-related challenges by reducing temperature fluctuations and controlling disease spread. D…
The HBCU advantage
Introduction There is growing interest in exploring the ways Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) mediate student outcomes. Methods Situating an HBCU education within the conceptual landscape of social capital, we follow the tenets of critical discourse analysis (CDA) to explore the narratives of ten early and mid-career HBCU alumni of eight 4-year colleges and universities. This framing allows for a nuanced analysis of the ways i…
The Cambridge Handbook of Religious Epistemology
The Cambridge Handbook of Religious Epistemology, the first to appear on the topic, introduces the current state of religious epistemology and provides a discussion of fundamental topics related to the epistemology of religious belief. Its wide-ranging chapters not only survey fundamental topics, but also develop non-traditional epistemic theories and explore the religious epistemology endorsed by non-Western traditions. In the first section, Fai…
Faith, Hope, and Justification1
The distinction between propositional and doxastic justification is normally applied to belief. The goal of this paper is to apply the distinction to faith and hope. Before doing so, I discuss the nature of faith and hope, and how they contrast with belief—belief has no essential conative component, whereas faith and hope essentially involve the conative. I discuss implications this has for evaluating faith and hope, and apply this to the proposi…
Exploring the Impacts of an Art and Narrative Therapy Program on Participants’ Grief and Bereavement Experiences
Grief and bereavement impact nearly every individual at some point of their lives, often having short or long-term physical and psychosocial impacts. Yet, these issues are rarely the focus of discussion, intensive therapy programs, or policy initiatives (Corr, 2002; Doka, 2002). This research explores the impacts of a closed group art and narrative therapy program in Ontario for individuals experiencing a grief or bereavement process following th…

Belief, Faith, and Hope
I examine three attitudes: belief, faith, and hope. I argue that all three attitudes play the same role in rationalizing action. First, I explain two models of rational action—the decision-theory model and the belief-desire model. Both models entail there are two components of rational action: an epistemic component and a conative component. Then, using this framework, I show how belief, faith, and hope that p can all make it rational to accept, …
Cosmopolitan Attitudes and Cosmopolitan Identities in Amitav Ghosh’s The Shadow Lines
Distinguishing between cosmopolitan attitudes and cosmopolitan identities, I argue that although the idea of “cosmopolitanism” has recently been endorsed as an ethical attitude by many writers, readers, and scholars from a range of disciplines, there has been a surprising amount of hostility toward individual people with complex cosmopolitan identities. Amitav Ghosh’s novel The Shadow Lines vividly illustrates this divergence by dramatizing the w…
Animating Discipline Disparities through Debilitating Practices
Context Girls of Color are overrepresented in school disciplinary actions based on subjectively judged, minor infractions. Studies have consistently shown that this exclusionary discipline has long-lasting impact on Girls of Color and their educational outcomes, including increased risk for pushout and involvement in the criminal legal system. Focus of Study We sought to uncover the processes that animate the statistics of overrepre-sentation of …

Towards a Framework for Building Community-University Resilience Research Agendas
In this paper, we ask: “How can we scope multiyear, multiscalar community–university collaborations that draw on the university’s diverse resources and contribute to community resilience”? We approach this question by presenting the development and application of the Advancing Collaborative Transdisciplinary Scholarship Framework (the “ACTS Framework”) which we argue has been successful at helping us better understand, foster, and work towards co…
Problematizing national/cultural affiliations in postcolonial literature
This article compares the reception and categorization of the work of Doris Lessing and V. S. Naipaul, two well-known writers who grew up in the colonies and arrived in Britain in 1949 and 1950, respectively. After her childhood and young adulthood in Southern Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe), Doris Lessing settled in London at the age of 30, where she was immediately included as a British writer, despite her own self-identification as African. Naipaul, w…

What Influences Linkage to Care After Home-Based HIV Counseling and Testing
To maximize the benefits of test and treat strategies that utilize community-based HIV testing, clients who test positive must link to care in a timely manner. However, linkage rates across the HIV treatment cascade are typically low and little is known about what might facilitate or hinder care-seeking behavior. This qualitative study was conducted within a home-based HIV counseling and testing (HBHCT) intervention in South Africa. In-depth inte…
Factors influencing pregnancy intentions and contraceptive use
Estimation of unmet need for contraception is pursued as a means of defining the climate of demand for services and the rationale for family planning programmes. The stagnation of levels of unmet need, as assessed by Demographic and Health Surveys, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa, has called into question the practical utility of this measure and its relevance to policies and programmes in settings where evidence-based guidance is needed the m…
Stopgaps, Beasts + Other Strategies of Being in Public Space
In this dispatch, Elizabeth Jackson reflect upon the process and possible implications of a collaboration called "Stopgaps and Gems," a creative research project that saw newcomer youth exploring and sharing their personal experiences and insights with other members of Guelph's public. Following Jackson's piece, she and Lisa Hirmer engage in a dialogue about Hirmer's creative practice, Dodolab, and the ways in which her work conceptualizes, engag…
Gender and social class in India
This article investigates representations of gender and class inequality in Attia Hosain’s classic novel Sunlight on a Broken Column (1961) and her short story collection Phoenix Fled and Other Stories (1953). It compares her work with that of Shama Futehally, another elite Muslim Indian woman writing in English several decades later. Born 40 years after Attia Hosain, the postcolonial world of Shama Futehally is very different, but the issues she…
Voyeurism or Social Criticism? Women and Sexuality in David Dabydeen's The Intended , The Counting House and Our Lady of Demerara
There is a substantial body of academic literature analysing David Dabydeen's fiction and poetry as postcolonial writing, but much less critical attention has been paid to his treatment of gender. In some ways, his approach to this issue makes for uncomfortable reading, giving rise to a desire to gloss over its substance as well as its implications. However, if Dabydeen is courageous enough to write so explicitly and honestly about misogyny in co…
Toward a cultural adaptation of pharmacotherapy
Relative to non-Latino Whites, Latinos in the United States with major depressive disorder (MDD) show low engagement in antidepressant therapy, whether engagement is defined as pharmacotherapy access, medication initiation, pill-taking, or treatment retention. One potential reason for this disparity in depression care is the low cultural congruence of pharmacotherapy for this population. To examine Latinos' views of depression and antidepressant …
Role of condom negotiation on condom use among women of reproductive age in three districts in Tanzania
Confidence to negotiate condom use is a significant predictor of actual condom use among women in rural Tanzania. Women, especially unmarried ones, those in multiple partnerships or anyone needing protection should be empowered with condom negotiation skills for increased use of condoms in order to enhance their sexual and reproductive health outcomes
Celebration and disillusionment in contemporary India
This article examines representations of Muslim weddings and their aftermaths in two contemporary anglophone novels by Indian Muslim women: Shama Futehally’s Tara Lane (1993) and Samina Ali’s Madras on Rainy Days (2004). These two first-person narratives contrast strikingly with each other, thus illustrating the wide diversity of cultural practices even within the same (privileged) class of Indian Muslims. Tara Lane is set in Bombay and Madras on…

Gender and communal politics in Shama Futehally’s Reaching Bombay Central
Most of the best-known women writers of anglophone Indian fiction have been Hindu, and in the context of the intensification of communal politics in India, it is important to also consider the voices of their Muslim counterparts. Shama Futehally’s novel Reaching Bombay Central ( 2002 ) engages with both gender and communal politics from a Muslim perspective, and this article examines the ways in which the narrative implicitly challenges a number …
Mythic Origins
The story of Diogo Alvares or “Caramuru,” one of Brazil’s first white inhabitants, is a recurring theme in Brazilian historiography, literature, and imagination. Probably from the town of Viana do Castelo in Minho, Portugal,1 it is suspected that Diogo Alvares arrived in a wrecked ship at the beginning of Portuguese colonization.2 He resided in Bahia for many years (between three and six decades), in sporadic contact with the Portuguese. During t…

The 2600 community adult subjects tested in the 1989 MMPI restandardization project by Butcher, Dahlstrom Graham, Tellegen, and Kaemmer were grouped on the basis of their astrological sign the year of their birth in the oriental yearly cycle, and the day of the week on which they were born. Analyses of variance were carried out on the T scores of the basic MMPI profile scales for both males and females on each of these categories. No effect size …

Sociological Factors Affecting Agricultural Price Risk Management in Australia
The highly volatile auction system in Australia accounts for 85 percent of ex-farm wool sales, with the remainder sold by forward contract, futures, and other hedging methods. In this article, against the background of an extensive literature on price risk strategies, we investigate title behavioral factors associated with producers' adoption of price risk-management strategies (specifically futures and forward contracts) for selling wool. This r…
