Feasibility Testing of a Health Literacy Intervention With Adolescents and Young Adults in South Africa
INTRODUCTION: Low health literacy levels during adolescence and young adulthood (AYA) may impact acute healthcare access and longer-term health outcomes. Previous research in South African AYA suggests that health literacy levels are typically suboptimal but few interventions exist. This study aimed to test the acceptability and feasibility of a co-created, interactive health literacy intervention (LifeLab-Soweto) with AYA in Soweto, South Africa…
What values drive communities’ nutrition priorities in a resource constrained urban area in South Africa
Our study demonstrates how public engagement can facilitate the incorporation of community values and programmatic preferences into nutrition priority setting, enabling a responsive approach to local community needs, especially in resource constrained contexts. Findings could guide policy makers to facilitate more appropriate decisions and to improve nutrition in the first 1000 days of life
Effectiveness of a complex, pre-conception intervention to reduce the risk of diabetes by reducing adiposity in young adults in Malaysia
Background: Pre-conception interventions have the potential to lower non-communicable disease risk in prospective parents and reduce transmission of risk factors such as obesity to the next generation. The Jom Mama project in Malaysia investigated the effectiveness of a combined behaviour change communication and e-health intervention in young married couples prior to first pregnancy. This paper reports the evaluation of the effectiveness of this…
Stakeholder Perspectives on Barriers and Facilitators on the Implementation of the 1000 Days Plus Nutrition Policy Activities in Ghana
Optimizing nutrition in the preconception and 1000 days periods have long-term benefits such as higher economic productivity, reduced risk of related non-communicable diseases and increased health and well-being. Despite Ghana's recent progress in reducing malnutrition, the situation is far from optimal. This qualitative study analyzed the maternal and child health nutrition policy framework in Ghana to identify the current barriers and facilitat…

Pre-pregnancy community-based intervention for couples in Malaysia
IM is an iterative process that systematically gathers "best" evidence, selects appropriate theories of behaviour change, and facilitates formative research so as to develop a complex intervention. Though the IM process is time consuming, complex, and costly, it has enriched the Jom Mama intervention with a number of notable advantages: (i) intervention fashioned on formative work with stakeholders and in the target group; (ii) intervention combi…
Rebuilding Affordable Housing on the Gulf Coast
To support development of affordable housing for those displaced by Hurricane Katrina and for the region's newcomers, researchers from the RAND Gulf States Policy Institute studied Mississippi housing and made recommendations for policymakers.
Post-Katrina Recovery of the Housing Market Along the Mississippi Gulf Coast
In summer 2006, the Commission on Recovery, Rebuilding, and Renewal asked the RAND Gulf States Policy Institute to describe the state of the pre-Hurricane Katrina housing markets in Mississippi’s three coastal counties, to estimate the damage the storm did to their housing markets, to describe the status of the recovery effort, and to identify problems that might inhibit it. This report publishes the findings
Developmental Origins of Health and Disease
This landmark publication provides the first definitive account of how and why subtle influences on the fetus and during early life can have such profound consequences for adult health and diseases. Although the epidemiological evidence for this link has long proved compelling, it is only much more recently that the scientific and physiological basis for this has begun to be studied in depth and fully understood. This compilation, written by many…

Modeling For Forecasting Versus Modeling for Understanding
The majority of energy modeling has been conducted for the purpose of forecasting the future. The experience has been, for the most part, a long record of erroneous forecasts misleading to public and private sector policymaking. An alternative use of models is for understanding and expansion of community debate. This article delineates some of the distinguishing features of the two modeling approaches and compares three sets of energy scenarios, …
Decentralization and regionalization in The Ministry of Education
The Management Information System and the Control of Educational Change
This paper represents the findings of a field study designed to examine the management information system (MIS) of an urban school district to determine the role it plays in bringing about educational change in the classroom, change which ultimately draws a district into a closer reltationship with the needs of society. The MIS as a type of guidance system for change is made up -of three specific information loops and a control mechanism which ac…
Organizational Bureaucracy in Latin America and the Legacy of Spanish Colonialism
As Latin American nations begin to marshal their rapidly growing human and material resources, they frequently encounter organizational infrastructures which are incapable of supporting the rapid process of modernization. Yet, these inadequate infrastructures seem to persist over time, leaving behind unrecoverable losses. Attempts to understand the problems of modernization must not only consider questions of social and economic development, but …

A social systems analysis of educational subsystems in Venezuela
A Cross Cultural Comparison of Student Stereotypes
The degree to which one's culture defines his perception varies, of course, from person to person. Walter Lippman has said that the most part we do not first see and then define, we define first and then see. In the great blooming, buzzing confusion of the outer world, we pick out what our culture has already defined for us and we tend to perceive that which we have picked out in the form stereotyped for us by our culture. [1] The extent of the t…
