This document discusses strategies to address underage drinking in Europe through education programs. It finds that school and family-based interventions can be effective if they employ certain best practices. Successful school programs focus on developing life skills, teach realistic social norms about drinking, and involve teachers in design. Family programs that directly engage families can also reduce underage drinking. The document recommends prioritizing alcohol education, providing schools with evidence-based resources, and emphasizing preventative policies over punitive ones.
This document summarizes a community health project in Borama, Somalia implemented by Amoud University and the Somali Swedish Research Association (SSRA) with funding from ForumSyd.

TFN is a youth-led nonprofit that delivers education support in rural Nepal through university graduates. It operates in 3 districts, organizing student exchanges and environmental programs. Its goal is to end education inequity through community-based approaches like its Big Brother, Big Sister project. HERD is a research nonprofit that promotes evidence-informed policies through projects covering health, injuries, and family planning. It has conducted over 24 projects across Nepal to improve health and update data, adding to policies and helping thousands through community-based health programs. Both organizations employ youth and focus on sustainable, community-focused work to create long-term change.
The document discusses strengthening education sector response to reproductive health, HIV, and AIDS through comprehensive sexuality education. It notes that fewer youth are prepared for adulthood, rendering them vulnerable. In Kenya, HIV prevalence among 15-24 year olds is 3.8% and sexual debut has declined to 12 years old. Comprehensive sexuality education in schools can help increase knowledge and skills to prevent diseases and unintended pregnancy by addressing relationships, values, and decision making. Research shows such programs do not increase sexual activity but can promote healthy behaviors and attitudes when culturally appropriate. The education sector aims to collaborate across stakeholders to implement comprehensive sexuality education.
This document summarizes the findings of the Measuring Up: New Hampshire Arts Education Data Project report.

The report aims to inform policymakers and advocates to strengthen arts education for all New Hampshire students. It provides recommendations such as expanding arts offerings, integrating arts across other subjects, and promoting arts education through professional development.

The document discusses the challenges young people face regarding HIV stigma in Kenya. It finds high rates of HIV prevalence among youth as well as stigma that prevents testing and treatment. The HOPE program aims to address this through education, empowering youth voices, and linking youth to services. Lessons show that involving youth with HIV and improving sex education programs help reduce stigma among youth and create supportive environments. Continued efforts are needed to design effective anti-stigma strategies tailored for youth.

The document recommends making PSHE a core subject within the Ofsted inspection framework and providing consistent training for PSHE teachers.
Timo partonen suicide mortality and prevention in finland 26.10.2017THL
Finland has a long history of addressing its high suicide rates through national strategies and programs. In the 1970s, a parliamentary committee discussed national suicide prevention efforts. In the 1980s, the Ministry of Social Affairs and Health launched a nationwide suicide prevention program that succeeded in reducing suicide rates by 11% between 1986-1996. Key factors in Finland's prevention efforts have included improving support and treatment for those who attempt suicide, enhancing care for depression, preventing alcohol misuse, and promoting social support networks. Recent national initiatives focus on preventing bullying in schools, supporting at-risk youth, and improving clinical guidelines.

A study of 25 low-income Malay/Muslim households in Singapore to better understand the difficulties faced by low-income households in an increasingly fast-paced and competitive Singapore. The report presents a systematic and balanced analysis of the difficulties faced by those under severe financial pressure.
It calls for a re-examination of our assumptions on how we, as individuals and as a community, care and support those in need. It is hoped that this study will entice others from civil society and governmental organizations to undertake further research and produce evidence for policy-makers and service providers to refine and extend the support mechanisms for all low-income households in Singapore.

The American Pit Bull Terrier was once a highly regarded breed but is now often believed to be dangerous. While those familiar with the breed praise their temperament, others fear their strength and aggression. Pit Bulls were used for bull-baiting and dog fighting but also served bravely in World War I. Later some governments noticed increasing Pit Bull attacks. Experts say with proper training and breeding Pit Bulls can be well-natured, and they pass temperament tests, but media hype has damaged their reputation. While they account for about 40% of bites, annual statistics show Pit Bulls cause the most deaths. The debate continues over whether breed-specific laws are necessary or discriminate.

Day 2 panel 3 scaling up care for perinatal depression ng 108040ea-imcha
This document summarizes a study on perinatal depression in Nigeria. The study aims to improve detection and treatment of perinatal depression through training primary care providers. So far, the study has recruited over 2000 women and found a perinatal depression rate of 7-19%. The study is conducting interviews and assessments of primary care clinics. Challenges include low detection rates, lack of private screening spaces, and difficulties locating patients. The study is engaging with health officials and building capacity. Next steps include finalizing training materials and training trainers to scale the intervention. A related proposed study would adapt interventions for adolescent mothers, who are a high-risk group.
This document discusses services and support for children with disabilities and their families in Europe. It outlines several key principles:
1) Protection of children's rights is a priority, and states should support families to meet children's needs.
2) Institutional care should only be used as a last resort, as evidence shows it is not effective and violates children's rights.
3) Successful models emphasize developing community-based, family-focused services across sectors like health, education, and social welfare.
Early intervention, parental support, and inclusion in community life are emphasized.

Perception and experience of group supervision as quality improvement interve...REACHOUTCONSORTIUMSLIDES
Group supervision was introduced as a quality improvement intervention to improve the performance of Health Extension Workers (HEWs) providing maternal health services in Sidama Zone, Ethiopia. The intervention included training supervisors and implementing monthly group meetings where HEWs discussed collected data, problems, and solutions. Results showed the intervention improved HEW motivation and regularity of supervision meetings. Utilization of maternal health services increased, including antenatal care attendance and skilled delivery rates. However, challenges included lack of transportation support for supervisors and high supervisor turnover. Overall, the findings demonstrated that group supervision can positively impact HEW performance and maternal health outcomes.

Inclusion through mentoring: lessons from ScotlandJaakko Hyytiä
This document summarizes a case study of an inclusion through mentoring program in Scotland. The program was developed by a charity and placed in 15 secondary schools, supporting around 600 young people. It aims to give disadvantaged and care-experienced youth the same opportunities as others.
