Using a food-energy nexus lens to explore people's experiences of the cooking journey in African informal settlements
Solid fuels are still used by over 3 billion people worldwide, including many residents of informal settlements. Most interventions designed to improve people's solid fuel-related health have failed or fallen short of their ambitions. Often, this is because implementers have not fully understood the contexts, cultures and behaviours of the places and people they are working within and with. To address this, our study used a food-energy nexus lens…
Multi-level community dissemination of public health research
Household air pollution (HAP) from solid fuel use affects nearly 3.6 billion people globally, causing 3.2 million deaths annually. Despite extensive research, interventions show limited health benefits, highlighting the need for community-centered approaches that meaningfully engage affected populations in research dissemination and solution co-design. We present a community case study from the Fuel to Pot project (2020–2023), an interdisciplinar…
You’re a kid, you don’t know where you are”
Nonbinary youth’s gender identities are easily dismissed in dominant psy narratives as ‘identity confusion’ and continue to be marginalised due to growing transphobic discourse. How youth navigate these developmental and gendered positionings calls for exploration. This article examines forms of regulation that nonbinary youth experience and how they navigate these. A qualitative methodology and individual interviews were used with 10 nonbinary y…
Finding traces of everyday life in unusual places
Case records hold life-long significance for those who spent their childhoods in looked after care. Across Europe, public inquiries into the care and treatment of children in care have examined the content of records and have highlighted their limitations. This paper presents data from phase one of a wider study; ‘Archiving Residential Children’s Homes in Scotland and Germany (ARCH)’, which undertook content analysis of the archives of two reside…

Participatory research with women in the perinatal period
This article provides an account of using reflexive participatory methods including study advisory group membership to evaluate a perinatal wellbeing service in an economically deprived area of Scotland. There is little qualitative research that explores the experiences of women accessing perinatal mental health services. This article draws on feminist values and narrative theory to explore the practice, process and ethics of using participatory …
‘It is like talking to very good robots’
During the COVID-19 pandemic, many face-to-face group activities for new parents moved online. In this article, we share findings from 14 interviews conducted during the first lockdown in the United Kingdom with parents of babies under 12 months about their experiences of participating in online groups. Attendance at groups was treated as a survival mechanism or even a panacea for some parents, providing well-rounded entertainment and support for…
Learning in and beyond the classroom
Separated children, seeking protection in a new country unaccompanied by parents or customary caregivers, have the right to education yet many face difficulties accessing appropriate provision. We analysed data from Scotland across different types of provision: one specialist programme for separated children and four areas providing a mixture of mainstream and adapted classes. Drawing on situated learning theory and the concept of communities of …
Digital group archives in residential childcare
This article discusses phase two of the ARCH project (Archiving Residential Children’s Homes), and in particular, the development of a co-designed ‘digital archive’ that stores everyday, shared events and experiences for care experienced young people who live in residential children’s homes. We present research with young people living in residential care, care workers and care experienced adults about the types of everyday information or records…
You're trying to put yourself in boxes, which doesn't work
There are growing numbers of non-binary youth in the U.K. with increasing representation, whilst simultaneously forms of gender diversity are being heavily regulated. Non-binary youth face unique challenges regarding their gender development due to age-based expectations for single and stable identities, and the gender binary. This article explores the regulation of gender identity borders and how non-binary youth navigate these. Ten non-binary y…
‘Any d*** can make a baby, but it takes a real man to be a dad’
This article contributes to debates about fathers in social work by examining a group work intervention for fathers in Scotland. We present findings from observations of a ‘dad’s group’ and interviews with seven fathers and staff members. Participating in the dad’s group was found to be an expanded perception and expression of masculinity and fatherhood. The group provided a platform for the men to define and challenge understandings of fatherhoo…
Listening to care experienced young people and creating audio-bites for social work education
It can be challenging to incorporate young people’s voices into social work pedagogy even though service user involvement is an essential part of social work education. Technological advances present new ways to involve service users and overcome barriers to participation. The purpose of this research was to explore service user involvement amongst young people by developing an audio resource for a qualifying social work programme in Scotland. We…
Social Workers’ Management of Child Interpreting
Spoken language interpreters are commonly used to facilitate communication for emergent bilingual service users in social work. Children often have greater English language proficiency than their parents and may interpret for family members in a variety of contexts, including social work. This article approaches the topic of child interpreting from social workers’ perspectives and presents findings from in-depth interviews about child interpretin…
