Toward inclusive energy futures: Reflections on the collective authorship of a multi-institutional, interdisciplinary, and community-engaged equity, diversity, and inclusion terms of reference
This reflection outlines the development of a Terms of Reference (ToR) for equity, diversity, and inclusion (EDI) in a 6-year energy transitions research project spanning 11 institutions and involving 100 researchers across science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM), social science, and humanities disciplines. This multi-disciplinary and multi-institutional project involves partnerships with industry and civil society organizations, …
Assessing Sleep Architecture in Rural Eastern Cape Villagers of South Africa Using ŌURA Ring Data
We found that men who were responsible for livestock tended to have more % Light Sleep and less % REM Sleep than men without livestock. Livestock presence did not affect women's % Light or REM sleep stages, and % Deep Sleep remained unchanged between groups. Temperature was associated with changes in all sleep stages. Our findings highlight the need for naturalistic studies investigating sleep architecture in non-industrialized settings
Lived experiences of racialized emerging adults in Canada during the Covid-19 pandemic: ‘We Still Have to Adapt and Survive Because, After All, We Must Live’
Early research has found that the COVID-19 pandemic and its mitigation strategies disproportionately affected young adults’ mental health. This paper examines how racialized emerging adults in Peel Region, Canada experienced pandemic lockdowns through the lens of their intersecting identities. Emerging Adulthood Theory conceptualizes ages 18-29 as a period of identity exploration and instability, while an Intersectionality framework highlights ho…
The 'survival job' pathway: Risk-focusing and occupational challenges among Canadian racialized and immigrant adults during the Covid-19 pandemic
The impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic were not equally distributed, with emerging research demonstrating that racialized and immigrant populations in Canada have been disproportionately affected. Drawing on the risk-focusing hypothesis, a theoretical lens that explicates how risk burden concentrates disproportionately in marginalized populations, government mitigation strategies such as shutdowns can be seen as exacerbating existing social and eco…
Links between household and family social dynamics with sleep profiles among BaYaka foragers of the Congo Basin
Sex differences in daily activity intensity and energy expenditure and their relationship to cortisol among BaYaka foragers from the Congo Basin
OBJECTIVES: The pooling of energetic resources and food sharing have been widely documented among hunter-gatherer societies. Much less is known about how the energetic costs of daily activities are distributed across individuals in such groups, including between women and men. Moreover, the metabolic physiological correlates of those activities and costs are relatively understudied. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Here, we tracked physical activity, energ…
