Filter by:This is an independent evaluation of World VIsion's 7-year quasi-experimental intervention to improve nutrition, nutrition-related rights and gender equality for women, adolescent girls, and children under five years of age in rural Bangladesh, Kenya, and Tanzania. The evaluation will collect baseline, midline, and end-line data from intervention and comparison communities, schools, and health facilities. The evaluation objectives are to test if the intervention improved indicators for (i) child anthropometry, (ii) maternal and child dietary practices, (iii) women's empowerment, and (iv) equitable health service access for nutrition and sexual and reproductive needs. The evaluation analysis will take into account gender differences in the indicators.
As of August 2021, Colombia hosts the vast majority of Venezuelan refugees and migrants (UNHCR, 2022). For vulnerable refugees and migrants in Colombia, and especially for women, gender-based violence (GBV) is present during transit and continues in their new homes where xenophobia, lack of accessible and adequate services, lack of safe economic opportunities, and lack of information on access to services, further increase risk. Lack of livelihood opportunities also affect vulnerable refugees and migrants, especially women, with barriers to employment including lack of information; precarious working conditions with lower payments and longer working days with increasing risks of labor exploitation; xenophobia and discrimination; limited access to formal labor markets; lack of access to financial services, among others. To address these issues, the investigators are conducting a pilot randomized-controlled trial (RCT) of HIAS' Entrepreneurship School with Gender Lens (ESGL), a methodology that targets GBV survivors and women at-risk to help them develop business ideas, access needed support for the prevention of and response to GBV, exploitation and trafficking, and improve participants' overall self-reliance. The pilot RCT will be conducted within four cities in Colombia; approximately 80 eligible participants will be enrolled in each city and randomized to a treatment or control arm in a 2:1 ratio. Survey questionnaires will be administered to participants at baseline, eight months following baseline (endline), and 3-4 months after endline. Outcomes of interest include household self-reliance, mental health, empowerment, decision-making, and GBV risk and knowledge.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of telenursing interventions based on the empowerment model in empowering patients with COPD.
High-quality contraceptive counseling can strengthen global efforts to reduce the unmet need for and suboptimal use of modern contraceptives. This study aims to identify a package of contraceptive counseling interventions for Pakistan and Nigeria designed to strengthen existing contraceptive services and determine its effectiveness in increasing clients' level of decision-making autonomy and meeting their contraceptive needs.

This research was planned to evaluate the effectiveness of the technology-based psychosocial empowerment program for home care for children aged 8-18 years with cancer and their parents as a parallel-group randomized controlled study design.The required institutional permission and ethics committee approval was received.The study group of the study consisted of 72 children and parents (intervention group [n=36], control group [n=36]). Data were collected using the descriptive features form, the General Self-Efficacy Scale-Pediatric Cancer Version, the State and Trait Anxiety Inventory for Children, the Pediatric Cancer Coping Scale, the General Self-Efficacy Scale for parents, the Problem-Solving Scale, and the Cope and Adaptatıon Process Scale. The data were stored in the SPSS 25 program.
Global population aging has drastically increased healthcare spending worldwide, with the greatest portion going to hospital and community health services. Heart failure (HF), as the final form of many cardiovascular diseases resulting from insufficient myocardial pumping. Ineffective self-care is consistently identified as the major modifiable risk factor for HF decompensation requiring hospitalization. It refers to an active cognitive process that influence patients' engagement in self-care maintenance, symptom perception and self-care management. However, current studies pay much focus on interventions such as motivational interviewing and behavioural activation to enhance the HF-related self-care and health outcomes which only produces short-term benefits. In fact, the lack of a sustainable effect from the self-care supportive interventions might be related the use of patient-centric design in these studies, which totally ignores the fact that HF management takes place in a dyadic context. To advance, active strategies were adopted to mobilize collaborative effort of the dyad in actual disease management. This study aims to evaluate the effects and cost-effectiveness of a Dyadic empowerment-based Heart Failure Management Program (De-HF) for self-care, health outcomes, and health service utilization among HF patients who require family support after hospital discharge. The De-HF program is based on the Theory of Dyadic Illness Management to enhance the congruence in illness perception and active dyadic collaboration in managing HF via both face-to-face and online platforms.
Emotional disorders are among the most common childhood mental health difficulties. The majority of adult emotional disorders begin before age 14 years. Most children and families across the population do not receive the proven evidence-based interventions available, particularly those from socially disadvantaged neighbourhoods and excluded, Black and Minoritised populations. Families from disadvantaged neighbourhoods, Black and minoritised communities can often feel judged, mistrustful, and blamed for their children's behavioural difficulties making them reluctant to engage in parenting supportEven when available, research shows that over one-third of parents receiving traditional specialist delivered evidence-based parenting do not gain the expected outcomes. Undertaking a group-based parenting intervention to help parents understand and deal with their children's anxiety issues. The aim of this study is to examine the feasibility and acceptability of a new parent-led parenting intervention, being a Parent Helping your Child (BAPHYC) that is intended to improve childhood anxiety and to use the findings to inform the planning and conduct of a definitive randomised control trial. Being a Parent- Helping your Child (BAPHYC) has been developed from two well-established evidence-based parenting programmes. It is a parent-led, group format manualised parenting programme intended to improve childhood anxiety in children aged 5-12 years consisting of eight two-hourly weekly sessions peer-facilitated by two trained parent group leaders. The particants of BAPHYC participants are mothers, fathers and other carers who have principal parenting responsibility for a child with anxiety. The specific study objectives are to: 1. Establish initial evidence about reach and engagement, delivery, acceptability and impact of BAPHYC 2. Establish the feasibility of proposed recruitment pathways and measure completion 3. Acquire a fine grain understanding of parents' experiences of the BAPHYC intervention, research procedures and themes arising from BAPHYC implementation. 4. Assess participant recruitment, engagement, intervention and measure completion, and intervention acceptability rates against a priori feasibility parameters. 5. Obtain data that will be used in future trial recruitment and planning.
Background: In the interventional study of gender mainstreaming, few studies have been conducted on gender empowerment in long-term care. And there are still some limitations in the gender curriculum of current in-service education. This research will cooperate with the digital learning promotion plan to stimulate learners' senses to strengthen their feelings about gender equality issues and events to have a more flexible and diverse learning experience and enhance geriatric care competencies. Purpose: This study is a two-year plan, and the purpose of each year are as follows: 1). To conduct learning needs assessment of long-term care workers, and to develop and construct an educational training module for gender empowerment system of AR interactive experience. 2). To verify the effectiveness of the gender equality knowledge, attitude, awareness, and self-confidence of the research subjects after the "Apply of augmented reality technology" was introduced into the gender curriculum.
