Non-governmental organisations and the regulation of harmful commodity industries
Background The crucial role of non-governmental organisations (NGOs) in advancing effective regulation of health-harming corporate practices is widely accepted, yet how precisely they shape global health governance is not well-understood. While a vast literature has grappled with corporate power and its political, market, and technological dimensions, less attention has been paid to strategic efforts to counter the influence of corporate actors. …
Logics of (dis)engagement
A central question in contemporary health governance is how to prevent undue corporate influence. There is limited practical guidance beyond the tobacco control model. Global partnership approaches have continued to promote alcohol and ultra-processed food (UPF) industry engagement, and these industries have influenced policy and governance in ways that benefit their interests, often to the detriment of strong health regulation. In Australia indu…
Degrees of Change
This article traces the contours of the history of women’s education in England and Ireland in the period 1850-2000, mapping dominant themes and key inflection points. Positing a framework for reading degrees of change over time, we propose four interrelated lenses: access, curriculum, institutional presence, and networks. Drawing on key contributions to the field, we argue that women’s engagement with higher education has followed a complex and …
‘You Can Sort of Justify Having That Drink’
Parents' Perceptions of Claims on Packaged Commercial Toddler Foods
Commercial toddler foods (CTFs) are widely used. Many are nutritionally poor despite displaying health, nutrition or marketing claims implying healthiness. This study aimed to: (i) explore how claims on CTFs influence parents' product perceptions and preferences, and gauge support for regulatory reform to ensure CTFs are marketed responsibly; (ii) identify other factors influencing parent's and toddlers' perceptions and preferences towards CTFs a…
Food and drink advertising along school children’s transport routes in Victoria, Australia and policy implications
Objectives: To examine the extent and nature of food and non-alcoholic drink advertising displayed on public transport and infrastructure on school routes. Design: Audit of outdoor advertisements on government-controlled public transport and associated infrastructure (e.g. tram shelters, bus stops) on busy school routes in Victoria, Australia. Using a strict protocol, trained field workers collected data on the type and content of outdoor adverti…
NGOs and Global Business Regulation of Transnational Alcohol and Ultra-Processed Food Industries
The intensification of efforts by state and nonstate actors to address issues affecting global health has produced a patchwork of transnational regulatory governance. Within this field, nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) are expected to perform authoritative roles in holding business actors to account and enhance the democratic legitimacy of institutions via their participation in governance processes. While there exists a large body of concept…

Obesity prevention and related public health advertising versus competing commercial advertising expenditure in Australia
Mass media campaigns can change attitudes and behaviours to improve population health. However, a key challenge is achieving share of voice in a complex and cluttered media environment. The aim of this study was to compare advertising expenditure on public health campaigns for obesity prevention (and related healthy eating and physical activity campaigns) with competing commercial categories of (a) sugary drinks, (b) artificially sweetened drinks…
You can’t just eat 16 teaspoons of sugar so why would you drink 16 teaspoons’ worth of sugar?”
Labels conveying the amount of sugar in a beverage in teaspoons were perceived as highly factual, relatable and interpretable, and as having the greatest potential to impact consumption attitudes and intentions. Further quantitative studies are required to compare the potential effectiveness of the teaspoons of sugar labels in reducing purchasing and consumption behaviour than other alternative warning labels, such as health effects or "high in" …
Warning labels and interpretive nutrition labels
Effective strategies to reduce free sugar intake are needed. This study examined exposure to a warning label, independently and in conjunction with a Health Star Rating (HSR) label, on the selection of commercially available cold beverages with real decision-making stakes. Participants (N = 511, 47.9% female, mean = 21.7 (SD = 6.1) years) accessed an online convenience store app via an on-campus laptop to select one of 10 beverages (5 sugar-sweet…
Intentions to reduce sugar-sweetened beverage consumption
Objective: There are numerous health effects associated with excess sugar-sweetened beverage (SSB) consumption. Interventions aimed at reducing population-level consumption require understanding of the relevant barriers and facilitators. This study aimed to identify the variables with the strongest relationship with intentions to reduce SSB consumption from a suite of variables derived from the literature. Design: Random-digit dialling of landlin…
Improving the reporting of health research involving design
Design is being used more frequently in global health practice but is not reported on sufficiently for transparency, evaluability and wider dissemination. Reporting guidelines are useful in improving the quality and quantity of dissemination of work in peer-reviewed literature for global health. Building on available literature and current practice in design for global health, we present a reporting guideline that can be used by scholars and prac…
Psychometric Properties and Predictive Value of a Screening Questionnaire for Obstructive Sleep Apnea in Young Children With Down Syndrome
A well designed questionnaire with good psychometric properties had limited predictive value to screen for moderate to severe OSA in young children with DS. The use of a screening questionnaire is not recommended. Screening for OSA in this population requires objective sleep study measures

Human-centred design in global health
Health and wellbeing are determined by a number of complex, interrelated factors. The application of design thinking to questions around health may prove valuable and complement existing approaches. A number of public health projects utilizing human centered design (HCD), or design thinking, have recently emerged, but no synthesis of the literature around these exists. The results of a scoping review of current research on human centered design f…

Dress in Choral Evensongs in the Dutch Context – Appropriation and Transformation of Religiosity in the Netherlands
This article studies the appropriation of Anglican choral evensong, and more specifically, dress at choral evensong, in the Netherlands outside the context of the Anglican Church to gain more insight into religiosity in the Netherlands. The authors explore the dress worn at choral evensong in the Netherlands and the meanings participants attribute to it. The concepts of denotational and connotational meanings are used as an analytical tool. In an…
The impact of a tax on sugar-sweetened beverages according to socio-economic position
Objective A tax on sugar-sweetened beverages (SSB) has been proposed to address population weight gain but the effect across socio-economic position (SEP) is unclear. The current study aimed to clarify the differential impact(s) of SSB taxes on beverage purchases and consumption, weight outcomes and the amount paid in SSB taxes according to SEP. Design Databases (OVID and EMBASE) and grey literature were systematically searched in June 2015 to id…
Designing an English Public Services Ombudsman
This article explores the question of how to integrate the ombudsman community in England, a proposal for which there is much support but less agreement on the way forward. It is argued that, in the long-term, successful reform will not occur unless three distinct perspectives on administrative justice are incorporated into the proposal to form a single public services ombudsman for England. This approach points to a set of strong principles that…
A Framework for Evaluating the Impact of Obesity Prevention Strategies on Socioeconomic Inequalities in Weight
We developed a theoretical framework to organize obesity prevention interventions by their likely impact on the socioeconomic gradient of weight. The degree to which an intervention involves individual agency versus structural change influences socioeconomic inequalities in weight. Agentic interventions, such as standalone social marketing, increase socioeconomic inequalities. Structural interventions, such as food procurement policies and restri…
Gender, education and social change
This article explores feminist interventions in urban school politics. First, it argues that the female contribution was an essential component to politics and policy making in the 120-year period that London had a single education authority. Second, it suggests that these women politicians were advocates of a cultural praxis that involved reforming institutions to change the trajectory of political consciousness in twentieth century Britain. Par…

School-based parents' groups - a politics of voice and representation
In this paper we consider two discussion-based parents' forums at two secondary schools. We ask whether such forums can be considered as part of the small, local associative mechanisms which theorists claim have the potential to encourage a more vibrant and interactive public conversation concerning state provided welfare services. We conclude that they cannot - at least in any simple way. However, a study of the forums does raise several interes…
Towards a Learning Profession
Professionals were once considered to be the civic leaders, the deliverers of the good society. However, the old order has cracked under the pressure of social change, leaving a very different relation between professionals and their publics. This paper addresses some of the questions occasioned by these changes: Where does the altered power relation between parents, students and teachers leave the notion of teacher professionalism? What is the r…

Parental voice
This article analyses data collected in the first phase of an ESRC-funded project based in the United Kingdom, and studying the formulation and expression of parental 'voice' in school. The project takes as its starting point a conceptualisation of parent-teacher relationships which posits parents as citizens relating to public sector institutions. In this article, the authors first consider some theoretical formulations of citizenship, identifyi…
Storming parents, schools and communicative inaction
While recognition of the need to involve parents in the life of the school grows in public policy, anxiety continues at the intervention of ‘the angry parent’. This paper seeks to develop understanding of this communicative action and apply it to a study of parental voice in schools that identified a number of expressions of ‘storming’. The paper argues that these occasions were reactions to events in school and the underlying ‘performative attit…
Confronting ‘failure’
This paper is based on an in‐depth study of nine secondary schools situated in contexts of disadvantage across the national regions of the UK. First, we examine the construction of educational ‘failure’ by exploring the impact of disadvantage on the quality of learning and the identity of learners in one of the case‐study schools which (like several others) is situated within a large postwar housing development. We then analyse various kinds of i…

Gender, the city and the politics of schooling
This article tells the stories of four middle class, white, English women whose participation in educational policy making is little known: Annie Leigh Browne (1851–1936), Margaret MacDonald (1870–1911), Hilda Miall‐Smith (born 1861) and Honnor Morten (1861–1913). In doing so, it provides a perspective on the circumstances that enabled or encouraged or compelled women’s political mobilization in the socially divided Victorian city. Working throug…
Developing collaborative partnerships
This article draws upon recent research into schools and community education across Scotland to explore the issue of collaborative partnerships. It argues that collaborative activity is a prerequisite for educational partnerships within a community education system and puts forward an analysis of collaboration in terms of the values, purposes, tasks and conditions under which activities take place. The authors conclude that collaboration will onl…
The Annual Parents’ Meeting
Over recent years the role of parents in the education of their children has increasingly become a central issue for debate, not least due to the Government's emphasis on parents as key players in the market in education. Drawing on findings from recent research, this paper seeks to investigate the role of parents by focusing on the Annual Parents’ Meeting (introduced by statute in 1986). Typically perceived as a barren exercise, the research inv…

Parents as Volunteer Citizens
This article critically examines the dominant neo-liberal strategy for enhancing accountability in education. If professional accountability empowered providers at the expense of the public regarded as passive clients, then market accountability atomised the public as consumers and, paradoxically re-empowered the sectional interests of providers and contractors. A model of ‘holding to account’ needs to be complemented by practices of dialogue tha…

Towards A Theory of learning
This paper considers the nature of learning and the role of institutions in general and schools in particular in structuring learning. It outlines and commends a view of learning as a process whereby we discover ourselves as persons and thereby act to create the contexts in which we live and work. Central to this view is the idea of the ‘learning school’

Overview and Scrutiny as a Dialogue of Accountability for Democratic Local Government
The Local Government Act 2000 established a new set of political arrangements across England and Wales which included, for the first time, a distinct, separate overview and scrutiny function with the statutory duty to 'hold the executive to account'. This paper will explore the potential and limits of the overview and scrutiny function as a mechanism for public accountability in local government. It will be argued that effective processes of publ…
