Local Indigenous Knowledge Systems and Practices – Implications for Flood Ris...Lelihle Simelane
This presentation gives an overview of the role of LIKSP in water resources management and how they can contribute to increasing climate resilience in the region, informed by a review of research carried out in 14 member SADC states. It reflects that local communities have been dealing with climate variability for generations and have learned to adapt their lives and livelihoods to the water cycle. Thus, new adaptation measures for the water sector must build on such knowledge.
The presentation highlights the link between the different local indigenous indicators with conventional forecasting systems still requires an in-depth exploration, and points to indications that the two knowledge systems complement each other, and their reconciliation may be invaluable to the development of preparedness to climate change impacts. The identification of relevant, reliable and more robust local indicators which could be useful in determining changes natural and water resources, and the environment, while contributing to food security issues among rural communities would be vital for this purpose. The nature, form and relevance of any indicator must be known by community members and useable if it is to be useful in policy formulation. Community engagement should be taken as the first step by researchers and policy makers, during the research and documentation processes, otherwise some of the information will remain locked within.

R.A. 8980 establishes a national early childhood care and development (ECCD) system to promote the holistic development of children ages 0-6. It defines ECCD as a range of health, nutrition, education and social services. The law aims to improve child survival, development, and transition to primary school through integrated interventions. It also seeks to enhance caregiver capabilities and establish quality standards for ECCD programs.
This document outlines key aspects of Republic Act No. 8980, which establishes a comprehensive national system for early childhood care and development (ECCD) in the Philippines. It declares early childhood development a state priority and creates a multi-sectoral ECCD system involving government agencies, private organizations, and communities. The objectives are to improve child health, development, and school readiness through center-based and home-based programs, parent education, and quality standards set by a National ECCD Coordinating Council. The system will be established gradually in regions across the country over five years.

National population policy and Programmessthomas4u
National population policies aim to influence demographic variables like fertility, mortality, and migration through coordinated laws and programs. India's 2000 population policy had immediate objectives to address health care needs, medium-term goals to reduce the total fertility rate to replacement level by 2010, and long-term aims to achieve stable population growth by 2045 consistent with sustainable development. Key programs implemented include the National Rural Health Mission and family planning initiatives to improve health indicators and achieve policy goals.

We’re talking about Vedic Meditation, a form of meditation that has been around for at least 5,000 years. Back then, the people who lived in the Indus Valley, now known as India and Pakistan, practised meditation as a fundamental part of daily life. This knowledge that has given us yoga and Ayurveda, was known as Veda, hence the name Vedic. And though there are some written records, the practice has been passed down verbally from generation to generation.

Breast cancer: Post menopausal endocrine therapyDr. Sumit KUMAR
Breast cancer in postmenopausal women with hormone receptor-positive (HR+) status is a common and complex condition that necessitates a multifaceted approach to management. HR+ breast cancer means that the cancer cells grow in response to hormones such as estrogen and progesterone. This subtype is prevalent among postmenopausal women and typically exhibits a more indolent course compared to other forms of breast cancer, which allows for a variety of treatment options.
Diagnosis and Staging
The diagnosis of HR+ breast cancer begins with clinical evaluation, imaging, and biopsy. Imaging modalities such as mammography, ultrasound, and MRI help in assessing the extent of the disease. Histopathological examination and immunohistochemical staining of the biopsy sample confirm the diagnosis and hormone receptor status by identifying the presence of estrogen receptors (ER) and progesterone receptors (PR) on the tumor cells.
Staging involves determining the size of the tumor (T), the involvement of regional lymph nodes (N), and the presence of distant metastasis (M). The American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) staging system is commonly used. Accurate staging is critical as it guides treatment decisions.
Treatment Options
Endocrine Therapy
Endocrine therapy is the cornerstone of treatment for HR+ breast cancer in postmenopausal women. The primary goal is to reduce the levels of estrogen or block its effects on cancer cells. Commonly used agents include:
Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulators (SERMs): Tamoxifen is a SERM that binds to estrogen receptors, blocking estrogen from stimulating breast cancer cells. It is effective but may have side effects such as increased risk of endometrial cancer and thromboembolic events.
Aromatase Inhibitors (AIs): These drugs, including anastrozole, letrozole, and exemestane, lower estrogen levels by inhibiting the aromatase enzyme, which converts androgens to estrogen in peripheral tissues. AIs are generally preferred in postmenopausal women due to their efficacy and safety profile compared to tamoxifen.
Selective Estrogen Receptor Downregulators (SERDs): Fulvestrant is a SERD that degrades estrogen receptors and is used in cases where resistance to other endocrine therapies develops.
Combination Therapies
Combining endocrine therapy with other treatments enhances efficacy. Examples include:
Endocrine Therapy with CDK4/6 Inhibitors: Palbociclib, ribociclib, and abemaciclib are CDK4/6 inhibitors that, when combined with endocrine therapy, significantly improve progression-free survival in advanced HR+ breast cancer.
Endocrine Therapy with mTOR Inhibitors: Everolimus, an mTOR inhibitor, can be added to endocrine therapy for patients who have developed resistance to aromatase inhibitors.
Chemotherapy
Chemotherapy is generally reserved for patients with high-risk features, such as large tumor size, high-grade histology, or extensive lymph node involvement. Regimens often include anthracyclines and taxanes.

Nutrition and Food
Security/Safety in the context
of HIV/AIDS
Nutrition: Nutrition is the intake of food, nourishment or
energy that is obtained from food consumed or the process of
consuming the proper amount of nourishment and energy
needed for proper growth and development.
Food Security: Food security exists when all people at all
times have both physical and economic access to sufficient
food to meet their dietary needs for a productive and healthy
life.
Food Safety: Food safety could also mean means food
hygiene which could simply means handling, preparing and
storing food or drink in a way that best reduces the risk of
those consuming the food or drinks becoming sick from the
food-borne disease.

Introduction
Many Projects or interventions fail because of lack of
understanding of the need for Monitoring and Evaluation.
This section will set out the importance and roles of both
Monitoring and Evaluation and how they can be applied to
ensure a successful Program.
“In Project Management a project is only successful when it achieves
the set objectives within the allocated budget and delivered on the
agreed time.”
58. 1/9/2023 The Monitoring, Evaluation and Learning Activity 58
What is monitoring?
• Collecting routine data that measure
progress towards achieving program
objectives
• Involves counting what we are doing
• Tracks indicators to answer the
questions:
• Are we implementing our program as
planned?
• How well has the program been
implemented?
• How much does program implementation
vary from site to site?
• Did the program benefit the intended
people? At what cost?
59. 1/9/2023 The Monitoring, Evaluation and Learning Activity 59
Forms of monitoring
Physical and financial monitoring
Measuring progress of project activities against
established schedules and indicators of success
Process monitoring
Identifying factors accounting for progress of activities or
success of output production.
Impact monitoring
Measuring the initial responses and reactions to project
activities and their immediate short-term effects
60. 1/9/2023 The Monitoring, Evaluation and Learning Activity 60
WHAT IS EVALUATION?
Some Definitions:
Systematic collection and analysis of info about
characteristics and outcomes of programs (USAID
Evaluation policy)
Process that tries to determine as systematically and
objectively as possible the relevance, effectiveness and
impact of activities in light of their objectives (Measure
Evaluation on M&E Fundamentals)
Use of social science research procedures to
systematically investigate effectiveness of social
intervention programs (P. Rossi)
61. DIFFERENCE BETWEEN M & E
Monitoring Evaluation
Questions
• To what extent are planned activities
realized?
• Are we making progress towards achieving
our objectives?
• How many people are we reaching with our
services or information?
• How well are the services provided?
• What is the cost per unit service?
• Have we achieved the planned outcomes?
• What contributed to or hindered the
achievement of the outcomes?
• What are our program’s long-term effects (e.g.,
a decline in HIV incidence)?
