Health literacy needs and community-based solutions for African Australians in NSW and Victoria at the point of care
Health literacy, the ability to access, understand, appraise, and use health information, is critical for active healthcare engagement, yet little is known about African Australians’ needs at the point of care. We conducted a qualitative descriptive study involving six focus groups with 22 community members and nine community intermediaries in NSW and Victoria, to explore African Australians’ health literacy needs, including the current organizat…
Woman-centred care in conflict-affected and fragile states
BACKGROUND: Woman-centred care (WCC) is a respectful approach and a key component of quality care that prioritises a woman's dignity, autonomy, and preferences during pregnancy, birth, and postpartum.

The unfavourable social and economic environment, coupled with the low visibility of the pandemic and pandemic response, has likely modulated the influence of higher risk perception on adopting precautionary behaviours by individuals. Governments and non-governmental actors should increase the visibility of the pandemic and pandemic response, enforce and incentivise infection control measures in public areas, promote emerging preventive social ha…
Acceptability and feasibility of strategies to shield the vulnerable during the Covid-19 outbreak
Shielding is generally acceptable in the study communities. Acceptability is influenced by feasibility, and by contextual changes in the epidemic and associated policy response. The promotion of shielding should capitalise on the cultural and moral sense of duty towards elders and vulnerable groups. Communities and households should be provided with practical guidance to implement feasible shielding options. Households must be socially, psycholog…
Negotiating Female Genital Cutting in a Transnational Context
In this article, we explore migrant Somali and Sudanese women's reflections and decision-making regarding female genital cutting in a transnational context wherein women are compelled to maneuver between contradictory social norms. These include traditional norms, which consider the practice to be associated with socially acceptable sexuality and reproduction, and international norms, which consider the practice to be a violation of sexual and re…
