Are Cultural Differences Between Nations a Barrier to Cross-National Policy L...University of York
Are Cultural Differences Between Nations a Barrier to Cross-National Policy Learning?
Presentation by John Hudson*, Nam K. Jo** and Antonia Keung* to Second International Conference on Social Policy and Governance: Policy Learning and Policy Transfer, Hong Kong Institute of Education, Hong Kong, December 6-7 2013.
Abstract
Despite increasing attention recently paid to the role of culture within comparative welfare studies, empirical explorations of the impact of culture on social policy remain rare. One recent exception is Jo’s (2011) analysis of on an in-between level conception of culture based on the exploration of stable societal values using quantitative cross-national surveys of social values in high-income nations. In this paper we update and expand this framework by adding data from the most recent releases of the European Values Study and World Values Survey and by exploring a wider range of policy areas. Using this data along with data from international policy bodies such as the OECD we then move on to reflect how far cultural differences between nations not only explain policy differences, but may also be a barrier to cross-national policy learning.

Understanding how gender relations shape women’s and men’s lives is critical to disaster risk reduction (DRR). This is because women’s and men’s different roles, responsibilities, and access to resources influence how each will be affected by different hazards, and how they will cope with and recover from disaster.

Barry Fong, Principal Social Policy Analyst at the Greater London Authority (GLA) will take us through the Survey of Londoners 2021-22. Conducted at the end of 2021, so just before the full effects of the cost-of-living crisis began to set in, it was commissioned to provide vital evidence on key social outcomes for Londoners, following the onset of COVID-19 and associated restrictions.
A similar survey was conducted in 2018-19, so this survey would show how things had changed in the capital since then.
Barry will go through some of the key findings from the survey before handing over to Michael Cheetham and Ellen Bloomer from the North East London Integrated Care Board, who collaborated with local authority partners to fund a sample boost for the survey within North East London. They will explain how they used the data, including the analyses, the results and how this impacted strategy and practice.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

It is possible to hide or invisible some fields in odoo. Commonly using “invisible” attribute in the field definition to invisible the fields. This slide will show how to make a field invisible in odoo 17.
2. Introduction – gendered and generational
research Ethiopia
• Migration experiences vary across genders and generations
• Significant changes in gendered and generational relations and norms
• Little is known on the impact of migration on the intra-household dynamics,
the impact of migration on the household and the dynamics of the
household on migration processes and decision
3. Aim
• Examine how economic, social and cultural transformations impact
generational and gendered relationships among migrant households
• How social and cultural changes have affected migration, and how migration,
in turn, affects the outcome of such changes within the household
• How different members of the household are affected by resource changes
resulting from migration
• Examine the extent to which this is linked to the bargaining power of
women within the household
4. Aim continued
• Investigate the influence of all resource changes other than those resulting
from migration within a household
• Explore the bargaining power of men and women, adults and youth at the
household level to unpick gendered and generational relationships.
• Study if and how the position of a migrant within the household affects
children and youths’ life paths as household power relations fluctuate as a
result of migration.
5. Results in other countries
• Bangladesh, Ghana and Indonesia findings:
• Economic, social and cultural transformations in migrant sending areas lead to the
migration of specific categories of people (Darkwah et al., 2016), as do specific
demands in the global labour market (Platt et al., 2016).
• In all three countries, the studies demonstrated that relationships within families,
aspirations for certain types of futures, opportunities open to female and male
youths, and mothers’ and fathers’ power to influence their children’s life paths are
unsettled and transformed, for better or worse, as a result of migration.
6. Results continued
• They documented more intimate changes in individuals’ positions as
migrants and as relatives of migrants, which ultimately affected power
hierarchies and empowered some women to participate more in decision-
making (Rashid, 2016; Teye et al. 2017).
• Even if remittances were invested in the next generation, gendered norms
and expectations shaped and differentiated the impact on young men and
women considerably, especially when remittances were limited or about to
dry up (Rashid and Sikder, 2016).
7. Ethiopia – migration
• Facilitated the out flux of Ethiopians include famine, civil war, violent conflict, and
political instability
• How about life style other than economic and political factors?
• Internal migration in Ethiopia consists primarily of rural-rural and/or rural-urban
moves – international to gulf states, western countries and some African countries
• Remittance - most migrants have such low earnings that little is left to send home
once they have covered their own living expenses. The little money sent back to the
rural families is spent on daily consumption
8. The research
• Focusing on understanding migration from intra-household dynamics
perspectives
• Our analysis of household relations will shed light on the relationships
between men and women, parents and children, and siblings in a household,
and how these relationships influence decision making.
9. Research questions
• How does migration affect the concept of a household? (conceptualization
and decision making)
• How do migration, changing gender relations, and changing subject positions
intersect? (effect on power balance, intergenerational relation, what are
negotiations, obligations and expectations, changing roles)
10. Questions
• What gendered patterns of remitting and remittance use can we observe
among households in migrant communities? (sex of the remitter, position
and receiving and expenditure, role of social structures) amount and
frequency, behaviour
• Its effect on gendered and generational relationship
11. Questions continued
• What long term investment plans do households have and are they linked to
remittances? (determinants of remittance allocation, plans, decisions –what is
the place of gender and generations)
• How does migration affect the life choices in migrant families? (effect on
social and economic status on the family, livelihood choices) E.g. Does it
encourage for migration of other members?
12. Steps
• Models of intra-household dynamics will be thoroughly reviewed to identify
theories applicable or suggest inapplicability in relation to migration.
• This conceptualisation of households as sites of negotiation, affection, compliance,
and conflict is fundamental to the studies. The focus on household dynamics rather
than on the problems of specific groups such as youth or women can generate
revelatory findings of differentiation within such groups but also similarities across
groups – inner workings, privileges and responsibilities
• Moreover, relevant socio-economic policies, employment policies, migration
policies, and care policies will be reviewed where necessary.
• Primary data collection
14. Design
• Phenomenological approach, the researchers seek to understand meaning in events
and in human interactions
• To uncover the essence of how migration influences gender roles and behaviours
and generational relations by changing the intra-household dynamics.
• To increase our understanding of the lived experiences of migrant households
regarding the gendered and generational relations and dynamics.
• Phenomenology is therefore chosen to investigate the everyday experience and life
world of households through the lens of migration.
15. Sampling
• As qualitative research is the design, a strict randomized sample selection is
not necessary.
• The aim of including research participants in this study is not to make a
generalized statement for the general population.
• Rather, it is to obtain an in-depth and rich knowledge on generational and
gendered understanding of intra-household dynamics in relation to
migration.
16. Sampling continued
• 34 households but 68 participants – both adults and youth
• Site – Kombolcha woreda – South Wollo
• Ten with no migrants, ten with one or more internal migrants, ten with one or more
international migrants and four with both internal and international migrants.
• Careful attention will be given not to miss both the gendered and generational aspects in
terms of exploring ideas by women and men, youth and adults and analysing it
• The data will be collected in three rounds of fieldwork from the households in a total of 38
field days of stay. The respondents will be selected reflecting heterogeneity in terms of
living condition, gender, family structure, parental economic status, and other markers.
17. Analysis
• By exploring the nature of the participants’ experiences, areas and their
perceptions as well as attitudes, on gendered and generational relations
through the lens of migration, it will be possible to understand intra-
household dynamics for analysis to help researchers and policy makers
understand concerns thereby prescribing suitable solutions, including
migration-gender/generation inter-relations.
18. How do the three themes feed into each other
• The research on generational and gendered understandings of intra-household
dynamics will inform
• The quantitative research on income and remittances by providing insights into
social changes leading to migration, the impacts of migration and remittances on
the division of labour and resource allocation within the household and how shifts
in endowment and responsibilities shape decision-making processes.
• The research on migration industries by exploring shifts in mobilities and
immobilities, in mixed flows of documented and undocumented migrants, and the
fluidity that many migrants experience in their status over time.
