Participatory Photography for Reproductive Justice: Recommendations From a Community Collaborative Pilot Project Incorporating Care as an Ethical Foundation
Reproductive justice is a framework diversely applied to interrogate and challenge broad structural factors which constrain individual reproductive choices. This framework necessitates an intersectionally-aware and rights-based approach, which prioritises working with local communities and centres the reproductive experiences and needs of overlooked, devalued, repressed or marginalised populations. This paper considers the suitability of particip…
Housing Policy and Reproductive Justice in the UK
Reproductive Justice is an intersectional feminist activist movement and epistemological framework for documenting, understanding, and responding to reproductive oppression. The Reproductive Justice movement asserts that all people have the right to (1) not have a child; (2) have a child; (3) parent children with dignity in safe and healthy environments; and (4) bodily autonomy. As a movement rooted in international human rights, Reproductive Jus…
Video-Shorts: A Simple and Useful Classroom-Based Method for Developing Skills
Background: The teaching and learning of skills in a classroom setting are often thought to require a resource-intensive approach. Purpose: This study explores the impact of a relatively basic and short communication skills teaching session on postgraduate students’ self-perception of their skills. Methodology/Approach: Data was gathered using a preteaching and postteaching survey designed to enable students to evaluate their own sense of skill d…
Food Insecurity: A Barrier to Reproductive Justice Globally
Objective: Reproductive Justice identifies three core reproductive rights for all people: (1) the right to not have a child; (2) the right to have a child; and (3) the right to parent children in safe and healthy environments. We aim to illustrate that food insecurity infringes upon on all three of these rights and so is a pressing issue for reproductive justice and for sexual and reproductive health more broadly.Methods: Using a phenomenological…
A Watershed Moment for Social Policy and Human Rights?: Where Next For the UK Post-Covid
Self-reported fertility impairments and help-seeking strategies among young women in Malawi
This paper analyses wave 4 the Tsogolo la Thanzi survey of n = 1349 Malawian women aged 16-26 to explore the prevalence and predictors of self-reported fertility impairments (difficulties conceiving and/or difficulties carrying a pregnancy to term) and help-seeking strategies. Using descriptive statistics, logistic regression models, and graphic displays, the correlates of self-reporting an impairment and patterns of help-seeking strategies are e…
Mental health and care needs of British children and young people aged 6–17
We conducted a scoping literature review based on a sample of 51 UK-based research articles published since 2004, focusing on children and young people aged 6–17 years. Taking the 2004 Office for National Statistics survey of child and adolescent mental health as a pivotal point in the development of the field, our aims were to identify the mental health difficulties featured in extant literature since the survey; uncover critical gaps; and propo…
Watershed Moment for Social Policy and Human Rights: Where Next for the UK Post-Covid
With the ideological shift to neoliberalism and the introduction of austerity measures following the Global Recession, the UK has experienced divestment in the National Health Service, growing food bank use, increasing housing problems and growing inequities in access to digital services. These inequities have been both highlighted and compounded by the COVID-19 pandemic. Questioning the ideology that economic growth should be prioritised above a…
Subsidising rice and sugar? The Public Distribution System and Nutritional Outcomes in Andhra Pradesh, India
India's main food and nutrition security programme, the Public Distribution System (PDS), provides subsidised rice and sugar to deprived households. Using longitudinal data from Young Lives for Indian children (n = 2,944) aged 5 to 16 years, we assessed whether PDS subsidies skewed diets towards sugar and rice consumption, increasing risk of stunting (low height-for-age). Linear regression models were used to quantify additional rice and sugar co…
Risk factors for self-reported cataract symptoms, diagnosis, and surgery uptake among older adults in India: Findings from the WHO Sage data
A public health approach of behavioural modification, well-structured national outreach eye care services, and inclusion of local basic eye care services are recommended
Food bank operational characteristics and rates of food bank use across Britain
These findings suggest operational characteristics are an important part of access to food banks and raise questions about the ability of food banks to meet the needs of people at risk of food insecurity in Britain

Reproductive justice for the invisible infertile: A critical examination of reproductive surveillance and stratification
The ability to decide if, when, and how often to reproduce is a human right and a biomedical and sociopolitical goal. Infertility impinges upon this right by restricting the ability of individuals and couples to meet their reproductive desires. While biomedical interventions to address infertility have proliferated recently, their distribution has been inequitable; inequalities in rates of infertility, infertility‐specific distress, and access to…
The Housing Situations of Food Bank Users in Great Britain
Food bank use in Great Britain has risen substantially over the last decade. The considerable socioeconomic disadvantage of the food bank user population has been documented, but little research has examined whether housing problems intersect with insecure food access. Using data from 598 households accessing assistance from twenty-four food banks operating in Great Britain in 2016–2017, we found that nearly 18 per cent of households were homeles…
Reimagining infertility: A critical examination of fertility norms, geopolitics and survey bias
While it is estimated that 15% of couples worldwide are infertile, this figure hinges critically on the quality, inclusiveness and availability of infertility data sources. Current infertility data and statistics fail to account for the infertility experiences of some social groups. We identify these people as the invisible infertile, and refer to their omission from infertility data and statistics-whether intentional or unintentional-as the proc…
Impact of Welfare Benefit Sanctioning on Food Insecurity: A Dynamic Cross-Area Study of Food Bank Usage in the UK
Since 2009, the UK has witnessed marked increases in the rate of sanctions applied to unemployment insurance claimants, as part of a wider agenda of austerity and welfare reform. In 2013, over one million sanctions were applied, stopping benefit payments for a minimum of four weeks and potentially leaving people facing economic hardship and driving them to use food banks. Here we explore whether sanctioning is associated with food bank use by lin…
Difficulties Conceiving and Relationship Stability in Sub-Saharan Africa: The Case of Ghana
A qualitative study of factors impacting accessing of institutional delivery care in the context of India's cash incentive program
Not all eligible women use the available services under India's Janani Suraksha Yojana (JSY), which provides cash incentives to encourage pregnant women to use institutional care for childbirth; limited evidence exists on demand-side factors associated with low program uptake. This study explores the views of women and ASHAs (community health workers) on the use of the JSY and institutional delivery care facilities. In-depth qualitative interview…
Impaired Fertility and Perceived Difficulties Conceiving in Ghana: Measurement Problems and Prospects
What is the most appropriate measure of impaired fertility for understanding its social consequences in sub-Saharan Africa? The dearth of subjective measures in surveys in the region has prevented comparisons of subjective and objective measures. Perceived difficulties conceiving may have a greater impact than objective measures for social outcomes such as divorce, stigmatization and distress. This study compares 12- (clinical) and 24- (epidemiol…
What do Indian children drink when they do not receive water? Statistical analysis of water and alternative beverage consumption from the 2005–2006 Indian National Family Health Survey
About 13 million Indian children aged 6-59 months received no water in the last 24 h. Further research is needed to assess the risks potentially arising from insufficient water, caffeinated beverages, and high sugar drinks at early stages of life
Sibling support and the educational prospects of young adults in Malawi
BACKGROUND: Extended kin networks are an important social and economic resource in Africa. Existing research has focused primarily on intergenerational ties, but much less is known about "lateral" ties, such as those between siblings. In contexts of high adult mortality (i.e., fewer parents and grandparents) sibling interdependencies may assume heightened importance, especially during the transition to adulthood. OBJECTIVE: In this paper, we exte…
What Predicts the Actions Taken Toward Observed Child Neglect? The Influence of Community Context and Bystander Characteristics
Objective Using data from a sample of 3,679 respondents in 50 rural and urban communities in a midwestern state, the authors explore the relationship between individual and community characteristics and the provision of helping behavior when child neglect is observed. Method Telephone surveys of community residents were analyzed in a series of logistic regression models. Results At the individual level, age, gender, place of residence, and sentin…
