This document discusses the issue of literacy, especially for women, around the world. It notes that illiteracy is a major problem that affects many people's lives, especially in parts of Africa and Asia, by limiting opportunities and access to information.

The document provides statistics on the number of illiterate people, especially women, in different global regions to illustrate the scope of the problem.

This document provides information about abuse in later life and efforts to address it. It discusses an OVW grant program to enhance training and services for abuse against older women. Abuse in later life overlaps with elder abuse, domestic violence, and sexual assault. It affects both women and men aged 50+ in ongoing trusting relationships and can include various forms of abuse. Intimate partner violence is a significant segment. Collaboration between advocates, aging networks, health professionals and others benefits victim safety and resource sharing. Outreach must consider language, images, locations and building relationships to engage older adults.

This document discusses abuse in later life, defined as abuse of people over age 50. It covers different types of abuse including intimate partner violence, abuse by adult children or caregivers, and sexual abuse. Barriers to identifying and addressing abuse in later life include ageism, health issues, and traditional beliefs that discourage seeking help.

Sandra's powerpoint presentation
This document summarizes a presentation about violence against women with disabilities. It discusses that women with disabilities experience higher rates of domestic and sexual violence than women without disabilities. Perpetrators often target women's disabilities through controlling mobility devices, service animals, or communication tools. Survivors with disabilities face barriers to support due to inaccessible services and fear of institutionalization. The presentation calls for organizations to make programs accessible and to promote partnerships between disability and domestic violence organizations.

Michael gonzalez wallace power point presentation
This document discusses the benefits of combining neuroscience, physical training, and nutrition to improve both physical and mental health. It provides evidence that regular exercise strengthens connectivity between brain regions, improves cognition, and reduces the risk of conditions like Alzheimer's. Strength training with resistance is highlighted as particularly effective due to its impact on neural growth, cardiovascular health, hormone balance, and muscular strength. Functional exercises are recommended over isolation movements to work the entire body. Overall, the document promotes an active lifestyle involving both cardiovascular exercise and strength training for optimal brain and physical fitness at any age.

Novas diretrizes da OMS para os cuidados perinatais de mais qualidade
Novas diretrizes da OMS para os cuidados perinatais de mais qualidadeProf. Marcus Renato de Carvalho
Recomendações da OMS sobre cuidados maternos e neonatais para uma experiência pós-natal positiva.
Em consonância com os ODS – Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável e a Estratégia Global para a Saúde das Mulheres, Crianças e Adolescentes, e aplicando uma abordagem baseada nos direitos humanos, os esforços de cuidados pós-natais devem expandir-se para além da cobertura e da simples sobrevivência, de modo a incluir cuidados de qualidade.
Estas diretrizes visam melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados pós-natais essenciais e de rotina prestados às mulheres e aos recém-nascidos, com o objetivo final de melhorar a saúde e o bem-estar materno e neonatal.
Uma “experiência pós-natal positiva” é um resultado importante para todas as mulheres que dão à luz e para os seus recém-nascidos, estabelecendo as bases para a melhoria da saúde e do bem-estar a curto e longo prazo. Uma experiência pós-natal positiva é definida como aquela em que as mulheres, pessoas que gestam, os recém-nascidos, os casais, os pais, os cuidadores e as famílias recebem informação consistente, garantia e apoio de profissionais de saúde motivados; e onde um sistema de saúde flexível e com recursos reconheça as necessidades das mulheres e dos bebês e respeite o seu contexto cultural.
Estas diretrizes consolidadas apresentam algumas recomendações novas e já bem fundamentadas sobre cuidados pós-natais de rotina para mulheres e neonatos que recebem cuidados no pós-parto em unidades de saúde ou na comunidade, independentemente dos recursos disponíveis.
É fornecido um conjunto abrangente de recomendações para cuidados durante o período puerperal, com ênfase nos cuidados essenciais que todas as mulheres e recém-nascidos devem receber, e com a devida atenção à qualidade dos cuidados; isto é, a entrega e a experiência do cuidado recebido. Estas diretrizes atualizam e ampliam as recomendações da OMS de 2014 sobre cuidados pós-natais da mãe e do recém-nascido e complementam as atuais diretrizes da OMS sobre a gestão de complicações pós-natais.
O estabelecimento da amamentação e o manejo das principais intercorrências é contemplada.
Recomendamos muito.
Vamos discutir essas recomendações no nosso curso de pós-graduação em Aleitamento no Instituto Ciclos.

8 Surprising Reasons To Meditate 40 Minutes A Day That Can Change Your Life.pptxHolistified Wellness
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.Identification and nursing management of congenital malformations .pptx

- 7. I wonder if those chapters (family planning, sexuality) have already been adapted to the Afghan context. Because I am concerned that those chapters are going a bit too far in what Afghanistan can cope with. Many things can be discussed openly with women nowadays in Afghanistan, but printing and disseminating this material is another huge step that I see as potentially being too ambitious at the moment. It might create unwanted side effects, such as shuras, elders, or husbands reacting strongly to such details – especially birth control techniques. I think we have to be cautious with the pictures too. -- Firoz Alizada, -- National Association of Women with Disabilities of Afghanistan
- 9. Nagarathna and Shobha expressed that they could not participate this time due to their prior commitments. I managed to get Madhu (who is visually impaired), Jaya (who has bilateral polio), and Dorothy (who is in a wheelchair) to come to Mobility India and discuss the chapters. This process took half a day, but in the end they were satisfied, happy and are eagerly looking forward to the book. I must mention that there were some typing errors, which I am sure you will attend to.
- 12. What the book does NOT cover: • Disease-related disabilities, such as diabetes and lupus. • Physical therapy • Medical management of individual disabilities
- 13. What the book DOES cover: • organizing for disability-friendly health care. • how to care for daily needs with limited access to equipment.. • having healthy and safe sexual relationships. • which family planning methods work best for which disabilities. • pregnancy and childbirth. • how to defend against violence or abuse. • how families and caregivers can assist women with disabilities in a way that is helpful and not demeaning.
