Health Systems Strengthening in Fragile and Conflict-affected States: Introdu...Health Systems 20/20
Health systems in fragile and conflict-affected states face significant challenges including limited availability of services, supplies, funding, infrastructure, and trained workers. Weaknesses are exacerbated in these settings and can indicate state fragility when service coverage is below average for countries with similar incomes or access is inequitable. To reduce fragility, health systems strengthening interventions in these contexts must meet population needs, build sustainable local capacity, enhance state legitimacy, and reinforce state authority.WV Medical Journal article FINAL-1
Colorectal cancer screening rates in West Virginia remain below national averages, with only 63.5% of residents over 50 receiving appropriate screening. West Virginia faces numerous challenges to increasing these rates, including a largely rural population with limited access to healthcare, high rates of poverty, smoking, and other cancer risk factors. However, numerous organizations are working together through the Mountains of Hope Cancer Coalition and other initiatives to help West Virginia achieve the national goal of 80% colorectal cancer screening rates by 2018 by implementing widespread screening programs, raising awareness, and improving access to care.

This document summarizes a research study that explored barriers to accessing abortion services in rural NSW, Australia. It discusses:
- Background on a local women's health center that provides loans to help women access termination services. They found an increasing number of women seeking loans each year.
- The study aimed to understand rural women's experiences accessing services and the role of non-government organizations in supporting them.
- Interviews with 7 rural women's health centers found various support services provided but also gaps like lack of affordable and integrated care, and additional barriers for marginalized groups.
- The next stage will involve interviews with individual women to further explore barriers and facilitators to access, as well as perceptions of care gaps.

Connecting women, connecting menCCAFS | CGIAR Research Program on Climate Change, Agriculture and Food Security
Women value local community-based organizations (CBOs) more than men, as CBOs provide women with access to credit and social protection. The research found that women named more organizations focused on food security, particularly those working to increase food availability. However, women expressed a gap in organizations addressing food access and utilization. The document recommends that policies and programming should explicitly target women and other vulnerable groups. Efforts are needed to strengthen adaptive capacity at the community level and coordinate organizations working in the same area. Adaptive capacity work should involve and support existing community groups, especially women's groups.Ian Anderson, "Strengthening the Health and Well-being of Gay Men"
This document summarizes a community consultation project to assess the health needs of gay men and other men who have sex with men in Vancouver.

This report summarizes findings from a task force examining disproportionality and disparities in Oregon's child welfare system. The task force found that Black and Native American children are overrepresented at multiple decision points compared to their representation in the general population. Specifically, they are more likely to be reported to CPS, removed from their homes, and remain in foster care. The report identifies factors like poverty, institutional racism, and lack of access to support services that contribute to these disparities. It recommends promoting culturally sensitive practices, relative placement, front-end services, and data analysis to safely reduce foster care entries and length of stay for children of color.

Teagen Johnson: CHNA Dane County, WI: Creighton MPH602
The document provides a community health needs assessment for Dane County, Wisconsin. It outlines the assessment process, which includes defining the community, identifying stakeholders, collecting and analyzing demographic and health indicator data, and prioritizing issues. Key findings include the county's diverse and educated population with access to healthcare, lower than average rates of obesity, diabetes and heart disease but high rates of chronic disease overall. Teen pregnancy and low birthweight are relatively low concerns.
Jefferson county rural health project final
Jefferson County, WA has a population of around 30,000 people spread across a rural area. Access to health care is challenging due to the geography, with 80% of the county more than 30 minutes from key services like emergency care. Insurance coverage is also an issue, with 24% uninsured. The document proposes interventions to address these priorities of access and insurance, such as expanding the roles of telehealth, physician extenders, and EMS providers in remote areas, as well as providing insurance outreach and developing community health clinics. Community engagement is seen as essential to developing a successful plan.
Pend Oreille County
Pend Oreille County in Washington state faces several health issues related to its rural poverty. The median household income is below the national average and over 15% of residents live below the poverty line, especially female-headed households. This poverty contributes to higher rates of child abuse, lack of health insurance, and other health problems. Access to healthcare is also limited due to the county's rural nature and distance from major hospitals. To help address the issue of child abuse, the document recommends implementing the evidence-based Positive Parenting Program (Triple P) model, which has been successful in other similar low-income rural populations by enhancing parenting skills.

Richard J. Wolitski presented on advancing a sexual health framework for gay, bisexual, and other men who have sex with men (MSM) in the United States. He noted that over 30,000 new HIV infections occurred among MSM in 2009, showing that current efforts are not effective. A sexual health approach considers broader health issues, relationships, discrimination and stigma. It emphasizes wellness, prevention, and respectful relationships. Structural changes are needed to address homophobia and improve health care and education to reduce HIV transmission and promote sexual health for all.

This document discusses Zambia Emory HIV Research Project's (ZEHRP) use of a "web of influence" model to combat stigma towards HIV/AIDS. The model trains community influential leaders and agents to recruit couples for voluntary counseling and testing through their social networks. Since adopting this model in 2004, the number of couples tested has increased significantly. Key findings show the model is successful in building trust and changing attitudes by utilizing community leaders. The document recommends a community-based, multi-sectoral approach drawing on influential leaders to spearhead HIV/AIDS sensitization and voluntary counseling and testing promotion.Muevete (Move) USA

DataBrief No. 16: Residence Setting by Level of Disability
Less than 40% of older Americans with moderate or severe disabilities reside in nursing homes. Most older adults with disabilities prefer to receive long-term services and supports (LTSS) in their own homes or in residential care facilities rather than nursing homes. As a result, states have significantly increased spending on community-based LTSS over the past few decades. According to 2006 data, 58% of older Americans with moderate to severe disabilities received assistance in either community or residential care settings, while only 38% resided in nursing homes.

This document summarizes a study on gynecologic cancers in rural areas of Kenya. The study aimed to understand the knowledge, myths, and screening practices around cervical, breast, and prostate cancers. It found that many rural Kenyans are unaware of routine cancer screening and do not utilize screening services due to stigma and cost concerns. Major barriers to screening included ignorance, myths, illiteracy, lack of perceived risk, and financial constraints. The study recommends increased public education on cancer prevention, screening, nutrition, and signs; and making affordable screening services more available locally.

Lindsey Leininger and colleagues analyzed data on Medicaid/BadgerCare Plus applications in Wisconsin submitted between January 2008 and November 2009. They found that 62% of applications were submitted through ACCESS, the state's online portal. Applicants using ACCESS were less likely to be determined eligible for coverage (69%) compared to other methods. ACCESS attracted applicants with lower socioeconomic status at higher rates. The portal also increased rates of spillover applications to other programs but eligibility rates for these spillover applications were lower than for other methods. Wisconsin aims to expand ACCESS for future health insurance exchanges.

Participatory women's groups have been shown to effectively reduce neonatal and maternal mortality rates in rural areas with high child mortality. The MIRA Makwanpur study in Nepal found that monthly women's group meetings over two years led by a local female facilitator reduced neonatal mortality by 30% and had a major impact on reducing maternal mortality. The low-cost intervention involved problem identification, planning, implementation and evaluation of strategies through discussion to address key issues like postnatal care, breastfeeding and clean delivery. Similar approaches replicated in other countries have also found positive effects, demonstrating the potential of this community-based model for improving child survival in resource-poor settings.
Child Survival & Health Grants_ Khrist Roy_10.14.11
The document discusses the final evaluation results of a community based neonatal care program in Nepal from 2007-2011. It found that the program helped reduce neonatal mortality rates in Nepal from 37% in 2006 downwards according to trends. Frontline health workers expressed needing more training on using bag and masks for birth asphyxia identification and management to further reduce newborn mortality.
Cord care with low cost antiseptic saves newborn lives in nepal
Chlorhexidine (CHX) is a broad spectrum antiseptic that reduces bacterial colonization on the umbilical stump of newborns. JSI is assisting the Government of Nepal and other partners, to reduce neonatal mortality by scaling up the use of chlorhexidine for umbilical cord care. This poster is from the 2015 Saving Lives at Birth event hosted by USAID.
Neonatal health
The document discusses neonatal and child health care. It provides statistics on infant mortality rates globally and in different regions. Almost two-thirds of infant deaths occur in the first month of life, and among those two-thirds die in the first week. The leading causes of neonatal death are preterm birth, severe infections like sepsis and pneumonia, and birth asphyxia. Reducing neonatal mortality is important to achieving Millennium Development Goals around reducing child mortality. The document outlines efforts to prioritize and improve newborn health.
National neonatal strategy
The National Neonatal Strategy aims to improve newborn health and survival in Nepal. It was developed based on a situation analysis and expert recommendations. The goals are to increase adoption of healthy newborn care practices and strengthen neonatal health services at all levels. Key interventions include developing policies and guidelines, behavior change communication, strengthening service delivery through training health workers and improving facilities, better program management, and conducting operational research. The strategy provides an evidence-based framework to guide stakeholders in improving neonatal outcomes in Nepal.

This presentation by JSI's Leela Khanal, "Better Cord Care Saves Babies' Lives" was part of a dynamic panel moderated by JSI's Dr. Penny Dawson on February 13, 2015 at the 14th World Congress on Public Health in Kolkata, India. Four speakers summarized evidence for interventions proven to reduce newborn mortality (e.g., chlorhexidine) and shared important policy and programmatic experiences in prevention and treatment of neonatal infections. JSI's Leela Khanal and Dr. Nosa Orobaton spoke about experiences from Nepal and Nigeria in scaling up chlorhexidine use in those countries. Another speaker shared results from the COMBINE trial in Ethiopia, implemented primarily by JSI with support from SAVE/SNL, which evaluated the impact on neonatal mortality of health extension worker-led management of bacterial infections.
Public private partnership in safemotherhood program in Nepal
The document discusses public private partnerships in Nepal's Safemotherhood program. It provides definitions of key terms, describes the status and activities of the program, and outlines various PPP models used. The program aims to reduce maternal and neonatal mortality by improving access to antenatal care, skilled birth attendance, emergency obstetric care, and postnatal care. It partners with various organizations to implement activities like community mobilization, ultrasound programs, and expanding emergency referral services. However, partnerships face limitations like unclear policies, weak coordination, and a lack of regulatory frameworks and research on the private health sector.
JSI's Chlorhexidine Projects in Nepal, Madagascar and Nigeria
28% of newborn deaths worldwide are due to infections. The entry point for many of these infections is the umbilical cord. Traditional practices to prevent infection (such as alcohol, oil, ash, or turmeric) vary from place to place and may be harmful. Chlorhexidine (CHX) is a simple, effective, 23-cent intervention that has been used to reduce neonatal mortality by 23% and prevent serious cord infections by 68%. Funded by USAID and other donors, a pioneering program led by JSI in Nepal has prevented at least 2.700 newborn deaths and has influenced other countries around the global. More than 25 countries have visited Nepal’s program, and 5 have implemented programs, including two programs funded by USAID and led by JSI in Madagascar and Nigeria. To create and provide a sustainable, affordable, and high-quality supply, JSI partnered with private-sector manufacturers in Nepal and Nigeria. Nepal’s Lomus Pharmaceuticals, whose CHX tubes are displayed here, have exported the antiseptic to Ethiopia, Liberia, Madagascar, Malawi, Nigeria, and Pakistan. Nigeria’s Drugfield Pharmaceuticals has exported to Haiti and Kenya.

Almost two-thirds of infant deaths occur in the first month of life, and among those two-thirds die in the first week. The leading causes of neonatal death are preterm birth, severe infections like sepsis and pneumonia, and birth asphyxia. Reducing neonatal mortality is important to achieving Millennium Development Goals around reducing child mortality. The document outlines efforts to prioritize and improve newborn health.
National neonatal strategy
The National Neonatal Strategy aims to improve newborn health and survival in Nepal. It was developed based on a situation analysis and expert recommendations. The goals are to increase adoption of healthy newborn care practices and strengthen neonatal health services at all levels. Key interventions include developing policies and guidelines, behavior change communication, strengthening service delivery through training health workers and improving facilities, better program management, and conducting operational research. The strategy provides an evidence-based framework to guide stakeholders in improving neonatal outcomes in Nepal.

This presentation by JSI's Leela Khanal, "Better Cord Care Saves Babies' Lives" was part of a dynamic panel moderated by JSI's Dr. Penny Dawson on February 13, 2015 at the 14th World Congress on Public Health in Kolkata, India. Four speakers summarized evidence for interventions proven to reduce newborn mortality (e.g., chlorhexidine) and shared important policy and programmatic experiences in prevention and treatment of neonatal infections. JSI's Leela Khanal and Dr. Nosa Orobaton spoke about experiences from Nepal and Nigeria in scaling up chlorhexidine use in those countries. Another speaker shared results from the COMBINE trial in Ethiopia, implemented primarily by JSI with support from SAVE/SNL, which evaluated the impact on neonatal mortality of health extension worker-led management of bacterial infections.
Public private partnership in safemotherhood program in Nepal
The document discusses public private partnerships in Nepal's Safemotherhood program. It provides definitions of key terms, describes the status and activities of the program, and outlines various PPP models used. The program aims to reduce maternal and neonatal mortality by improving access to antenatal care, skilled birth attendance, emergency obstetric care, and postnatal care. It partners with various organizations to implement activities like community mobilization, ultrasound programs, and expanding emergency referral services. However, partnerships face limitations like unclear policies, weak coordination, and a lack of regulatory frameworks and research on the private health sector.
JSI's Chlorhexidine Projects in Nepal, Madagascar and Nigeria
28% of newborn deaths worldwide are due to infections. The entry point for many of these infections is the umbilical cord. Traditional practices to prevent infection (such as alcohol, oil, ash, or turmeric) vary from place to place and may be harmful. Chlorhexidine (CHX) is a simple, effective, 23-cent intervention that has been used to reduce neonatal mortality by 23% and prevent serious cord infections by 68%. Funded by USAID and other donors, a pioneering program led by JSI in Nepal has prevented at least 2.700 newborn deaths and has influenced other countries around the global. More than 25 countries have visited Nepal’s program, and 5 have implemented programs, including two programs funded by USAID and led by JSI in Madagascar and Nigeria. To create and provide a sustainable, affordable, and high-quality supply, JSI partnered with private-sector manufacturers in Nepal and Nigeria. Nepal’s Lomus Pharmaceuticals, whose CHX tubes are displayed here, have exported the antiseptic to Ethiopia, Liberia, Madagascar, Malawi, Nigeria, and Pakistan. Nigeria’s Drugfield Pharmaceuticals has exported to Haiti and Kenya.

Health_improvement_for_disadvantaged_people_in_Nep (1)
The study evaluated differences in health knowledge and experiences between households in villages that used participatory approaches and rights-based interventions for health improvement compared to households in villages that did not use these approaches. Health knowledge was generally greater in households that participated in the interventions. For example, awareness of tuberculosis was almost 9 times higher in participatory households after adjusting for potential confounding factors. Participatory households also had better knowledge of preventing diarrhea and other infectious diseases. While knowledge of reproductive health and family planning was still low overall, participatory households demonstrated some advantages. The study findings provide evidence that participatory and rights-based interventions can improve health knowledge and experiences for disadvantaged people.
Down with low child sex ratio challenges ahead
The document discusses India's declining child sex ratio and the challenges posed by it. It defines child sex ratio and outlines trends over time and across states, showing a decline nationally from 927 to 914 girls per 1000 boys between 2001-2011. The decline is attributed to son preference, the economic burden of dowry, and sex-selective abortions. Impacts include millions fewer girls and potential issues like violence, trafficking, and social instability. Solutions discussed include promoting girls' education and status, enforcing laws against sex determination and female foeticide, and addressing underlying social and economic factors contributing to son preference.

- The Data Book is used to assess primary care needs, highlight differences between communities, and facilitate data-driven decision making. It has supported funding and policy decisions and is utilized by various organizations.Pakistani Women in the UK: How do Social Networks affect Access to Mental Hea...
1) Pakistani women in the UK have lower rates of mental health service use compared to women from other ethnic groups despite having higher rates of mental illness. Social networks may play a role in this difference.
2) Analysis of survey data found that Pakistani women reported smaller social networks with less contact with friends, more negative aspects of social support, and lower rates of mental health service use compared to other groups.
3) Higher levels of negative social support and fewer close friends were associated with lower probabilities of mental health service use across all ethnic groups. This suggests social networks may influence mental health service access differently for Pakistani women.

Presentation_Wesseling - Private Public Partnerships and CKDu
This document discusses the epidemic of chronic kidney disease of unknown etiology (CKDu) affecting agricultural workers along the Pacific coast of Central America. It provides evidence that the disease has an occupational etiology related to heat stress and dehydration experienced by sugarcane and other field workers. Studies show physiological changes in workers consistent with heat stress and dehydration across work shifts. Longitudinal studies find declines in kidney function over harvest seasons among heat-exposed occupations. Intervention studies reducing heat stress through water, rest, and shade have shown reduced declines in kidney function. While some non-occupational factors may also contribute, the evidence strongly suggests that prolonged occupational heat stress is a primary driver of the CKDu epidemic.
Presentation_NCDs - Private Public Partnerships and CKDu
Non-communicable diseases like cardiovascular disease, cancer, chronic respiratory disease, and diabetes are leading causes of death and disability globally but receive little focus from global health initiatives. While communicable diseases have declined in recent decades, deaths from non-communicable diseases have increased and pose growing health and economic challenges as treatments remain limited. Experts call for greater prioritization and resources for non-communicable diseases on the global health agenda.

It also stresses the importance of addressing caregiver stress and depression through psychosocial support groups to promote child development.
Presentation_Robb-McCord - Building Partnerships to provide nurturing care
The document summarizes key points from a CORE Group meeting on nurturing care for preterm newborns. It discusses how nurturing care involves providing a stable, sensitive environment that meets children's health needs from birth to 3 years. The evidence review examines interventions like skin-to-skin contact, breastfeeding, managing pain and stress, sleep protection and stimulation. Country case studies from both high and low income nations are also being conducted to understand policies and guidelines supporting nurturing care concepts.
Presentation_Discussion - Norms Shifting Interventions
Participants in a small group discussed how to integrate norms-shifting interventions into current projects and programs. They considered what new partnerships would be needed when working to shift social norms and what evidence of the effectiveness of norms-shifting interventions should be collected, for whom, and how.
Presentation_Krieger - Norms Shifting Interventions
The document discusses the origins and theories of social norms. It notes that early theorists like Durkheim, Weber, and Ogburn contributed to understanding where norms come from and how they guide behavior. Parsons further explored how members of society are socialized to norms. Later, feminist anthropologists studied norms and social control, especially regarding gender. The document contrasts philosophical, psychological, and anthropological approaches to studying norms and culture. It argues that knowledge of cultural norms can help reduce unexpected outcomes in social science and shift narratives to achieve behavior change. The example of the Albania Family Planning Project shows how understanding local norms was key to successfully promoting contraceptive use.
Presentation_NSI - Norms Shifting Interventions
This document discusses the key attributes of norms-shifting interventions. It identifies several attributes that make an intervention effective at shifting social norms, including seeking community-level change, engaging people at multiple levels, correcting misperceptions around harmful behaviors, confronting power imbalances related to gender, creating safe spaces for critical reflection, rooting the issue within community values, accurately assessing norms, using organized diffusion, and creating positive new norms. The document provides examples and explanations for each of these attributes.
Presentation_Igras - Norms Shifting Interventions
This document discusses using theory to inform the work of a learning collaborative (LC) on norms-shifting interventions for adolescent reproductive health. It outlines several relevant theories, including social norm and behavior change theory and communication and behavior change theories. It also discusses the value of "bottom-up" program change theory developed from implementation experience. The LC aims to facilitate collaboration between organizations, build knowledge, and develop shared tools to guide effective social norm measurement and practice at scale. By working collaboratively, the LC can take a more experimental approach in this nascent field while still being informed by relevant theories.
Presentation_Petraglia - Norms Shifting Interventions
This document discusses a constructivist perspective on norms and normative change. Some key points of constructivism are that knowledge is constructed through social interaction and prior experiences, and meaning is negotiated through language. Constructivism acknowledges that individuals belong to multiple reference groups and can choose which norms to follow in a given situation. Normative change interventions cannot directly manage or control norms, but may be able to influence them by facilitating dialogue, clarifying language, and encouraging ethical persuasion rather than direct attribution. Norms and beliefs are also difficult to accurately measure.
Presentation_Sprinkel - Norms Shifting Interventions
This presentation provides an overview of CARE's Tipping Point initiative which aims to address child, early and forced marriage in Nepal and Bangladesh through community programming and evidence generation. In Phase 1 from 2013-2017, the project worked with adolescents, parents and leaders in 16 districts across the two countries. Norms influencing child marriage include excluding girls' voices, controlling girls' sexuality, and perceptions of risks/benefits of marriage timing. Phase 2 implements a randomized control trial to generate evidence on effective gender transformative programming and the value of social norms approaches. Challenges included discussing sexuality while successes included girls gaining greater freedom and mobility.
Presentation_Tura - Norms Shifting Interventions
This document discusses the Care Group approach used in an intervention in Nepal from 2005-2010. It aimed to shift social norms around maternal and child health issues through community groups. Formative research identified key norms and barriers. Community groups engaged women to reflect critically and root issues in community values. Evaluations found sustained impact on behaviors like breastfeeding years later. Challenges included focusing directly on norm drivers and unrealistic community health worker workloads. Further research on accurate norm assessment and evidence-based norm-shifting is still needed.
Presentation_Sacher - Norms Shifting Interventions
This document summarizes Cristina Bicchieri's theory of social norms, which is grounded in philosophy, game theory, and psychology. The key aspects of the theory include conditional preferences that depend on social expectations, personal normative beliefs about what should be done, and expectations about what others in one's reference network do and think should be done. The implications for practice highlighted in the document include providing a theory of change, identifying the nature of norms to design appropriate interventions, and using data and illustrative vignettes to measure norms and guide social change programs.

The document summarizes the Utkrisht Development Impact Bond in India, which aims to improve quality of care in private maternity facilities. It discusses how impact bonds can mobilize private capital for development by lowering investment risk. The Utkrisht bond provides funds for accrediting 360-440 private facilities over 3 years. Facilities receive quality improvement support and investors are repaid based on the number of facilities accredited. Early lessons show facilities are motivated to improve if it grows their business and they receive support meeting standards. The bond also provides a framework for continuously improving the project and managing risks between partners.

Presentation_Jurczynska - Catalyzing Investments in RMNCAH at the Community L...
The document describes an evidence-based advocacy model called the Family Planning – Sustainable Development Goals (FP-SDGs) model. The model allows users to quantify the impacts of different family planning scenarios on 13 Sustainable Development Goal indicators out to 2030 or 2050. Users input baseline data and create three future scenarios capturing various levels of ambition for family planning and other socioeconomic factors. The model then projects population figures and calculates outcomes for the SDG indicators. Results can support advocacy efforts to increase funding and prioritization of family planning programs and policies. Examples of the model's use in Malawi, Tanzania, and West Africa demonstrate its ability to quantify potential development impacts of expanding access to voluntary family planning.

A.为什么留学生需要操作留信认证?
留信认证全称全国留学生信息服务网认证,隶属于北京中科院。①留信认证门槛条件更低,费用更美丽,并且包过,完单周期短,效率高②留信认证虽然不能去国企,但是一般的公司都没有问题,因为国内很多公司连基本的留学生学历认证都不了解。这对于留学生来说,这就比自己光拿一个证书更有说服力,因为留学学历可以在留信网站上进行查询!
B.为什么我们提供的毕业证成绩单具有使用价值？
查询留服认证是国内鉴别留学生海外学历的唯一途径但认证只是个体行为不是所有留学生都操作所以没有办理认证的留学生的学历在国内也是查询不到的他们也仅仅只有一张文凭。所以这时候我们提供的和学校颁发的一模一样的毕业证成绩单就有了使用价值。乌龟和王八贼头贼脑的倒也逗人喜爱日上三竿时山娃总爱窜进自家瓜棚里跟小伙伴们坐着聊天聊着聊着便忍不住往瓜田里逡巡一番抱起一只硕大的西瓜用石刀劈开抑或用拳头砸开每人抱起一大块就啃啃得满嘴满脸猴屁股般的红艳大家一个劲地指着对方吃吃地笑瓜裂得古怪奇形怪状却丝毫不影响瓜味甜丝丝的满嘴生津遍地都是瓜横七竖八的活像掷满了一地的大石块摘走二三只爷爷是断然发现不了的即便发现爷爷也不恼反而教山娃辨认孰熟孰嫩孰甜孰淡水
