How social norms influence processes of change related to an economic intervention in Bangladesh
Intimate partner violence (IPV) occurs due to multiple factors at the individual, relational, community and societal levels. Previous research has shown that a cash, food and behaviour change communication programme called the Transfer Modality Research Initiative (TMRI) implemented from 2012-2014 in Bangladesh had sustained effects on IPV. We collected qualitative data among former TMRI participants in 2023 that allows exploring how social norms…
Smart City Innovations
This paper integrates research on smart cities, innovation ecosystems, and networks to examine how collaboration shapes the development of smart city technologies. It addresses a critical gap in the literature by investigating the roles of both local and global partnerships in driving innovation. Drawing on a negative binomial regression analysis of global patent data, the study evaluates the impact of domestic and international collaborations on…
Evolution of intimate partner violence impacts from cash transfers, food transfers, and behaviour change communication
Cash or food transfers can reduce intimate partner violence (IPV), but knowledge gaps remain on how impacts evolve over time, and the role of complementary 'plus' activities and contextual factors. We conducted a mixed-method analysis of how the Transfer Modality Research Initiative in Bangladesh affected IPV over time. The programme was implemented from 2012 to 2014, following a randomised controlled trial (RCT) design, across Northern and South…
The mechanisms underlying the emergence of innovation ecosystems
Scholars have increasingly been using ecosystem as a concept within and beyond social science, but less is known about how ecosystems emerge. In this study, we investigate the context of the Artificial Intelligence (AI) ecosystem in Montreal to understand the mechanisms underlying the emergence of innovation ecosystems. Building on the work of Ostrom and the literature on innovation commons and conducting content analysis and network analyses, we…
Overlooked impact of less severe physical violence on antenatal care visits
Background: In South Asia, women often experience intimate partner violence (IPV) and have limited access to maternal health services (MHS). However, the effects of IPV on antenatal care (ANC) visits remain unclear. This study aimed to examine the impact of IPV of different forms and severities on ANC visits in South Asia. Methods: This cross-sectional study used the latest available data from demographic and health surveys conducted in Banglades…
The economic costs of a multisectoral nutrition programme implemented through a credit platform in Bangladesh
Bangladesh struggles with undernutrition in women and young children. Nutrition-sensitive agriculture programmes can help address rural undernutrition. However, questions remain on the costs of multisectoral programmes. This study estimates the economic costs of the Targeting and Re-aligning Agriculture to Improve Nutrition (TRAIN) programme, which integrated nutrition behaviour change and agricultural extension with a credit platform to support …
