Corporate Social Responsibility in the Post-Pandemic Era — Lessons for Emerging Economies
The paper’s primary objective is to conduct a preliminary inquiry into the effect of the Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic on Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) practices with specific discourse on emerging economies like India. It is highly relevant given the repeated waves of the pandemic and the critical need for impactful CSR initiatives globally. It examines the evolution, present status, and challenges of CSR in India and identifie…
“It’s Important to Think of Pepper as a Teaching Aid or Resource External to the Classroom”
For a period of 3 weeks in June 2021, we embedded a social robot (Softbank Pepper) in a Special Educational Needs (SEN) school for autistic children. The robot’s behaviours and integration into the school were co-designed with the children and teachers, with a focus on improving the well-being of the pupils. Using a mix-method approach, we studied the robot’s adoption over the course of the study, and the impact of the robot’s presence on the chi…

Renting in the informal city
In South Africa, informal rental accommodation constructed in the backyards of formal houses is the fastest growing housing segment. These backyard dwellings (BDs) are makeshift structures made from timber frames, metal sheets or wooden planks. Despite the proliferation of BDs, national and local governments have done little to improve the living standards of backyard dwellers. The research uses focus groups, interviews and building surveys to ex…
Making Demands on Government
Informality is growing with Africa's rapid urbanization. Much like residents of other types of informal housing, backyard dwellers face overall poor living conditions and political marginalization. However, backyard residents are in an ambiguous legal area and have been far less politically active and organized to pursue their rights to adequate housing. Using a qualitative case study of backyard residents in three Cape Town neighborhoods, Harris…
Indicators of Healthy Architecture—a Systematic Literature Review
The design of the built environment plays an important role as a determinant of health. As a society, we are spending an increasing proportion of our time indoors and now spend over 80% of our life inside, so the design of buildings can greatly impact on human health. Accordingly, architecture health indices (AHIs) are used to evidence the effects on human health associated with the design of buildings. AHIs provide quantitative and empirical dat…
Updating the determinants of health model in the Information Age
In 1991, Dahlgren and Whitehead produced a highly influential model of the determinants of health that has since been used by numerous national and international public health organizations globally. The purpose of the model is to enable interventions that improve health to be addressed at four key policy levels. It is not a model of health or disease; instead the model is structured around health policy decision-making. However the model needs a…
The Nature of Society
The paper describes the transformation of derelict land into a 'town-green' and the role legislation played in transforming social and natural relationships. Town-green denotes a legal status under the Great Britain Commons Act (2006) that protects certain open spaces from building development; the status requires that a space must simultaneously have a specific social quality (i.e. 'town-ness') and a specific natural quality (i.e. 'green-ness').…
