Interventions for environmentally sustainable and climate-resilient cities and communities for the aging population in South Korea
Introduction: As the Republic of Korea undergoes demographic transitions, exposure to climate-related health risks is intensifying. In response, the government has considered population aging as part of their national plans of climate adaptation and health, and local governments have also worked on age-friendly city plans aligned with WHO guidelines. However, evidence of interventions contributing to environmental sustainability and climate resil…
Multi-Sector collaboration to promote healthy ageing
This study investigates how national policies in nine Western Pacific countries-China, Japan, South Korea, Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, Malaysia, Vietnam, and Cambodia-promote healthy ageing through multi-sector collaboration. The objective is to identify common patterns and country-specific features in the governance and organization of collaborative efforts. Using comparative case study analysis based on government documents, official rep…
Are long-term care systems aligned with person-centered integrated care? Evidence from the Western Pacific
BACKGROUND: Many Western Pacific countries have established long-term care (LTC) systems to support their rapidly aging populations. However, the extent to which these systems align with integrated care principles that enable individuals to age in place (AIP) remains unclear. Effective integration of LTC with healthcare is essential to enhance continuity of care, improve outcomes, and support AIP. OBJECTIVE: This study examines the alignment of L…
Rapid review on healthy ageing interventions that incorporate action on climate change and sustainability in cities and communities
Climate change justice and resilience should be incorporated explicitly into the AFCC framework. Greater information exchange between Global North and Global South and inclusion of diverse perspectives (i.e., Indigenous knowledge, people with disabilities and/or experiencing homelessness) will enhance policy efforts. Similarly, recognition of the broader impacts of climate change on the fundamental pre-requisites for health across the lifespan su…
Bilingual youth identities contested through the use of K-12 language arts textbooks in a Korean heritage language classroom
In the US, many immigrant languages have been maintained through the efforts of local communities in the form of community-based Heritage Language (HL) programs. Previous studies have discussed diverging linguistic practices and identities among students and teachers in HL programs. However, there is little research on how materials use affects such diverging practices in HL classrooms. To this end, this study adopts Actor Network Theory (ANT) as…
Materials use in language classrooms
How language learners and teachers actually use pedagogical materials in classrooms is a ‘groundbreaking’ subject of applied linguistics inquiry (Tarone, 2014, p. 653), referred to in this research agenda article as materials use . We begin with a theoretically-oriented overview of language education scholarship on pedagogical materials (henceforth materials ). Then, we focus on seven qualitative research tasks across three thematic areas, namely…
Aboriginal peoples in complete mental health
This study aimed to document the prevalence and factors associated with complete mental health (CMH) among Aboriginal peoples living in Canada. CMH is comprised of three parts: 1) the absence of major depressive episode, anxiety disorders, bipolar disorder, serious suicidal thoughts, and substance dependence in the past year as measured by the World Health Organization (WHO) versions of the Composite International Diagnostic Interview (WHO-CIDI),…
Ethnography of language planning and policy
A decade ago, Hornberger & Johnson proposed that the ethnography of language planning and policy (ELPP) offers a useful way to understand how people create, interpret, and at times resist language policy and planning (LPP). They envisioned ethnographic investigation of layered LPP ideological and implementational spaces, taking up Hornberger's plea five years earlier for language users, educators, and researchers to fill up and wedge open ideolog…
