Possibility, Actuality, Sustainability
This article documents the enactment of a scenarios of possibility (SoP) approach to educational change in two initial teacher education programs in French as a second language in Ontario, Canada. After creating and implementing six contextually relevant change initiatives – referred to as scenarios of possibility – qualitative data was collected from participants ( N = 59) to ascertain their actuality and the impact on interactions and relations…
It's (in)escapable
In this article, we critically examine the Ontario, Canada secondary French as a second language (FSL) curriculum to unpack the ways it both resists and perpetuates colonial, racist, and oppressive discourses. By engaging in this analysis, we aim to inspire language teacher educators to envision and critically engage with alternative, anticolonial, feminist frameworks that challenge dominant paradigms by developing critical reflection, contextual…
Hydrology controls thermokarst and alters carbon cycling and methane emissions in peatlands near the southern limit of permafrost
Permafrost peatlands store vast amounts of frozen carbon across northern landscapes. When ground ice melts, surface subsidence produces thermokarst landforms that expand wetlands at the edges of permafrost plateaus. Thermokarst represents an accelerating climate feedback, but uncertainties remain about how ground ice, hydrology, and vegetation interact to shape landscape change and carbon fluxes. We extended the process-based model ecosys to simu…
Unraveling the depth-dependent causal dynamics of methanogenesis and methanotrophy in a high-latitude fen peatland
The dynamics of methane (CH 4 ) cycling in high-latitude peatlands through different pathways of methanogenesis and methanotrophy are still poorly understood due to the spatiotemporal complexity of microbial activities and biogeochemical processes. Additionally, long-term in situ measurements within soil columns are limited and associated with large uncertainties in microbial substrates (e.g. dissolved organic carbon, acetate, hydrogen). To bette…
Unravelling the silence around gender and sexuality in a second language curriculum
This study explores the ways in which marginalised genders and sexualities are discussed in the French as a second language (FSL) curriculum in Ontario, Canada. The aim of this paper is to consider how official policy documents reinforce or challenge possibilities for inclusive teaching/curriculum development in modern language programs. Drawing on anti-colonial feminism (Carroll 2018) and queer linguistics (Leap 2015) frameworks, this research e…
Improved quantification of cover crop biomass and ecosystem services through remote sensing-based model–data fusion
Cover crops have long been seen as an effective management practice to increase soil organic carbon (SOC) and reduce nitrogen (N) leaching. However, there are large uncertainties in quantifying these ecosystem services using either observation (e.g. field measurement, remote sensing data) or process-based modeling. In this study, we developed and implemented a model–data fusion (MDF) framework to improve the quantification of cover crop benefits …
Evaluating the usability and acceptability of a geographical information system (GIS) prototype to visualise socio-economic and public health data
Irrespective of variations in demographics or use of smart technology amongst interviewees, there was no significant difference in the usability of the model across the stakeholder groups. The average SUS score for a new system is 68. A score of 83.17 was calculated, indicative of a "good" system, as falling within the top 10% of scores. This study has provided a potential digital model for mapping public health data. Furthermore, it demonstrated…
Complex systems, explanation and policy
Much public health research considers interventions that influence and are influenced by both individuals’ health and the society around them; this can be described as a complex system. We consider the role of explanation alongside statistical inference as crucial to obtaining credible and useful insights, particularly in light of concerns about a ‘crisis of replication’, and reflect on the difficulty in researching complex systems. In this paper…
Risk, safety and sex among male PrEP users
Recent advances in biomedical HIV prevention have led to optimistic projections of a dramatic worldwide reduction of new infections by 2030. This optimism is counterbalanced by concerns that the protective benefits of one such technology, HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP), may be negated by increases in other behaviours that offset these benefits (risk compensation). To contribute to a deeper understanding of concepts of safety and risk in the …
Preexposure Prophylaxis for HIV Infection Integrated With Municipal- and Community-Based Sexual Health Services
IMPORTANCE: Several randomized clinical trials have demonstrated the efficacy of preexposure prophylaxis (PrEP) in preventing human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) acquisition. Little is known about adherence to the regimen, sexual practices, and overall effectiveness when PrEP is implemented in clinics that treat sexually transmitted infections (STIs) and community-based clinics serving men who have sex with men (MSM). OBJECTIVE: To assess PrEP adh…
Self-reported Recent PrEP Dosing and Drug Detection in an Open Label PrEP Study
Monitoring adherence to pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) is part of the recommended package for PrEP prescribing, yet ongoing concerns about how to do so confidently are exacerbated by gross discrepancies in reported and actual use in clinical trials. We evaluated concordance between reports of recent PrEP dosing collected via neutral interviewing and drug quantitation in the iPrEx open-label extension, where participants (n = 1172) had the choice…
Exploring Demand and Provision in English Child Protection Services
This paper presents the results of an exploratory study linking the national data-sets for all children in need and child protection services in England. The study was informed by an emerging literature on systems thinking in public services, and aimed to examine variations and patterns of response in local authorities to demand for child welfare services in their area. One hundred and fifty-two local authority census returns and other statistica…

Facilitators and barriers to medication adherence in an HIV prevention study among men who have sex with men in the iPrEx study in Chiang Mai, Thailand
In 2008, the Pre-exposure Prophylaxis Initiative (iPrEx) study expanded to include men who have sex with men (MSM) in Chiang Mai, Thailand. In full, 114 participants from Chiang Mai joined this international double-blinded trial of daily FTC-TDF (Truvada®) or placebo as a pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) HIV prevention strategy. To better understand the characteristics of iPrEx participants specifically from this underserved population in Thailand…
Preexposure Prophylaxis for HIV Infection among African Women
BACKGROUND: Preexposure prophylaxis with antiretroviral drugs has been effective in the prevention of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection in some trials but not in others. METHODS: In this randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial, we assigned 2120 HIV-negative women in Kenya, South Africa, and Tanzania to receive either a combination of tenofovir disoproxil fumarate and emtricitabine (TDF-FTC) or placebo once daily. The primary…
The definition and deployment of differential core professional competencies and characteristics in multiprofessional health and social care teams
There has been an increasing focus on delivering health and social care services through multiprofessional and inter-agency teams. This study, undertaken in 2011, explores how different professionals within multiprofessional teams define their own and other professions' core professional competencies, characteristics and contributions. It then compares these definitions with how different professionals deploy their time and what tasks they undert…

Edward Gibbon Wakefield, England and 'ignorant, dirty, unsocial, . . . restless, more than half-savage' America
Edward Gibbon Wakefield is usually credited with devising a new, 'rational' system of colonization, propounded in a series of books and articles between 1829 and 1837. Certainly, this is what his contemporary champions would have us believe but, rather than identifying what he propounds as an entirely new way of understanding colonization, it is more correct to characterize Wakefield's system as a careful decoction of existing ideas, practices an…
