Sahel terrorist crisis and development priorities
In Africa, nearly 46% of all mortality will be attributed to non-communicable diseases (NCDs) by 2030.

The objective of this was to explore the Ministry of Health budget allocations for NCDs from 2010 to 2020 as well as the effect of the terrorism crisis on these allocations. The methodology was based on the bu…

Dietary acculturation among black immigrant families living in Ottawa—a qualitative study
The study explores the dietary acculturation process among first-generation immigrant families from sub-Saharan Africa or the Caribbean living in Ottawa (Canada). In-depth qualitative interviews were conducted with 12 mothers. The interaction between accelerating factors and other mediating factors resulted in a spiral of dietary changes triggered by immigration. The spiral evolved at different paces from traditional to acculturated and toward he…
