Strategies for promoting health
Health promotion involves enabling people to increase control over their health and involves individual, community, and environmental factors. It is the responsibility of individuals, community groups, health professionals, health services, and governments. Approaches include lifestyle/behavioral changes, preventative medicine, public health programs, and addressing social and environmental determinants of health. The Ottawa Charter provides a framework for health promotion around developing skills, creating supportive environments, strengthening community action, reorienting health services, and building healthy public policy.
Hunger Free Colorado - Hunger Through My Lens - Photovoice Case Study & Toolkit
Based on the photovoice model, Hunger Through My Lens is a new advocacy project that sheds light on the reality of hunger in the Denver Metro area. The participation of experts—individuals who experience hunger—is the foundation of photovoice and this project. Following this model, Hunger Through My Lens is designed to provide a platform for Coloradans to share their stories.
Digital cameras are the main medium for participants to express themselves and put real stories to the overwhelming statistics surrounding hunger. The photographs provide tangible evidence that there’s a need to face the impacts of hunger on individuals, families and communities throughout Colorado.
A traveling exhibit displays the photographs and stories at locations around Denver. Policy makers and stakeholders—including you—are encouraged to view the photographs, meet with participants and engage in critical dialogue. Find out where you can experience Hunger Through My Lens.
The project released a Hunger Through My Lens Case Study & Toolkit in April 2014, so other groups can create a photovoice project in their community. The case study and toolkit the basics of photovoice, why the method is effective, when and how to use, and guidelines and considerations for developing your own photovoice project.
Hunger Through My Lens also has garnered local and national news coverage, including a PBS NewsHour report that struck a chord with people across Colorado and the nation.

Putting yourself in the picture
This document discusses using self-portraits and photo therapy to gain self-knowledge. It explains that people have multiple selves and fragmented memories in their subconscious. Through creating varied self-portraits and examining the images, one can explore different aspects of themselves, integrate their past, and question how social and psychological factors have influenced their sense of self. The goal of photo therapy is transformation by challenging fixed views of identity and accepting multiple selves.
Media Representation Essay
The document discusses representation and stereotypes in media. It defines representation as how media constructs reality through selective presentation. Representations encode certain ideologies and paradigms while excluding others to shape a preferred view. Stereotypes are shortcuts used to understand media that define characters as either belonging or not belonging in a society. While stereotypes can enhance a text's realism, they also risk oversimplifying groups and misrepresenting reality. The document analyzes how various theories like the male gaze approach stereotypes and representation in media production and reception.
Representations year 12 deb
This document discusses representations and stereotypes in media. It explains that representations are constructions that re-present individuals and groups in a certain way, rather than reality. The media selectively chooses how to portray people to serve its own purposes. Repeated representations can become stereotypes that are oversimplified and judgmental. Viewers should consider who created a media text and what point of view it supports or does not support. Representations have implications for how people see themselves and others.

Low Self Esteem Research
Media negatively impacts girls' self-esteem and body image in several ways:
1) The use of photoshop and airbrushing creates unrealistic, "perfect" images that girls feel they must emulate through physical alteration or unhealthy behaviors.
2) Full-figured women are also photoshopped or their bodies covered up in media like magazine covers, implying that certain body types are not beautiful.
3) Music videos often portray women as sexual objects wearing revealing clothing who exist only to please men, reinforcing harmful stereotypes.

Behaviour change process the cutting edge approach in addressing stigma love ...National Organization of Peer Educators (NOPE Kenya)
The document discusses a 3rd conference on addressing stigma held in Nairobi, Kenya from June 18-20, 2008. The conference aimed to enable participants to share experiences with stigma, provide a hands-on demonstration of using a behavior change model to eliminate stigma, and open avenues for participants to make the behavior change model available elsewhere. The behavior change process involves exploring current scenarios and attitudes, envisioning alternative scenarios without stigma, and taking action to achieve the new vision.Psychology of selfie
The document discusses the history and psychology of selfies. It traces the origins of self-portraits back to the 15th century and discusses how technology has enabled the rise of the selfie culture. Taking selfies can boost self-esteem and confidence but may also be linked to narcissism, obsession, and body dysmorphic disorder in some cases. The psychology of selfies is complex as they can have both benefits and drawbacks for mental health and social perception.
Key concepts
Representation refers to how media portrays groups, ideas, or topics from a particular perspective rather than objectively reflecting reality. Representation theory holds that media does not simply mirror reality but actively constructs new versions of it, which can strongly impact social perceptions. Laura Mulvey's "gaze theory" discusses how audiences view characters through gendered lenses like the "male gaze" that often objectifies female characters. For example, the music video for "She's So Lovely" by Scouting For Girls primarily objectifies the female subject, with lyrics and visuals that reduce her to physical attributes as men stare, reinforcing stereotypical gender representations.
Being an Opheliac
This document provides an in-depth discussion of Ophelia-ism and what it means to be an "Opheliac". It defines an Opheliac as someone who has delved into madness, originating from a 2006 album and song. The document then explores how society, media, and internalization of ideals can impact someone considered an Opheliac. It discusses influences like gender stereotypes, beauty standards, body image issues, and more that can take a psychological toll and lead one towards behaviors like social withdrawal or changes in eating/sleep patterns.

She uses her platform to raise awareness about prosthetics and their ability to help people accomplish everyday tasks. Through mentoring with the Lucky Fin Project, she encourages children with limb differences that their differences are beautiful and prosthetics enable accomplishment, not hide disabilities. She hopes to continue speaking nationwide about how technology can boost confidence and change lives.
Body image and the media 1
The document discusses how body image is greatly influenced by unrealistic portrayals in the media. It defines body image as a person's feelings about their own physical appearance and attractiveness. Media outlets like magazines, television, movies, and social media often feature thin models and actresses who do not reflect the body types of most women. Exposure to these unrealistic images can negatively impact young women and shape their perceptions of beauty and what a "normal" body should look like.
Body image and the media 1
The document discusses how body image is greatly influenced by unrealistic portrayals in the media. It defines body image as a person's feelings about their own physical appearance and attractiveness. Media outlets like magazines, television, movies, and increasingly social media showcase images of women that are unattainably thin, using filters and editing to further distort reality. This barrage of unrealistic ideals has been shown to negatively impact women and girls' self-esteem and satisfaction with their bodies, with many engaging in dieting, exercise, or even considering cosmetic surgery to achieve these impossible standards.
Portrayal of women in visual advertisements
The document discusses the portrayal of women in visual advertisements. It begins by explaining how advertisements are designed to engage audiences and convince them to buy products. It then discusses how advertisements construct gender stereotypes, with women often portrayed as younger, fair, decorative sex objects or in traditional roles like homemakers. This reinforcement of stereotypes can negatively impact society by making certain perspectives the norm and objectifying women. The document recommends using advertising to empower women, forming committees to review ads, and increasing media literacy to understand gender stereotyping.
2012 representation
Representation is how media portray reality through specific portrayals of people, places, and issues. It is not necessarily an accurate reflection but a constructed version. Media representations shape how audiences view things by selecting what to include and exclude and using language, images, and editing to guide audience understanding in a particular way. Representations reflect the views and values of their creators and can influence audience attitudes if they promote biased or unfair portrayals of groups.
Initial theory research
1) Uses and gratifications theory suggests that media can fulfill needs of identity, education, entertainment, and social interaction.
2) The document discusses how a music video about drag queens can help fulfill these needs for LGBTQ+ audiences by helping them find identity and acceptance, educating others about drag culture, and providing escapism.
3) It also discusses the hypodermic model, where media has influence over passive audiences, and how this music video could positively influence audiences to accept the protagonist's journey of self-discovery.

Representation
Representation in media can take several forms such as stereotypes, archetypes, or countertypes. Stereotypes are visual shortcuts that instantly convey meaning to audiences. Archetypes are the ultimate stereotypes. Countertypes challenge traditional stereotypical associations. Key areas of representation include age, gender, social class, ability, ethnicity, sexuality, and regional identity. Realism emphasizes content delivery through objective shots filmed at eye level with seamless editing, while formalism uses techniques like varied camera angles and lighting, and more camera movement to draw attention to aesthetic elements.
COMMODITISING FEMALE BODY THROUGH ELECTRONICMEDIA
The document discusses the exploitation of women through their portrayal in electronic media advertisements. It notes that advertisements commonly use women's bodies to sell products in unnecessary ways. The document presents examples of advertisements for products like fairness creams, deodorants, and drinks that prominently feature actresses' physical attributes rather than promoting the products. It argues this objectifies women and promotes unrealistic beauty standards. The document also summarizes interviews with common women about their views on these advertisements and their influence on consumers. It aims to analyze the trend of overusing women's bodies in advertising from a feminist perspective.

Empowering Photography
Empowering photography is a method developed by Miina Savolainen to be used in education, care work, therapy, and family settings. It aims to dismantle the inherent power of the photographer and instead emphasize interaction, dialogue, and the subjective experience of the subject. The subject leads the photoshoot and uses it to explore their identity, relationships, and memories in a way that improves self-understanding without requiring therapeutic skills. Effective empowering photography requires dialogue between the photographer and subject.

This has meant organisations are having to manage and support staff remotely; review some existing policies to ensure they are still fit for purpose; and manage with a reduced and rotating staff capacity. In partnership with our Trusted Supplier Croner, in this webinar we will be sharing good practice on managing and supporting staff in this new environment. We will be joined by Vicky Scott, Operations and HR Manager at Hackney CVS who will share the experiences and learnings of Hackney CVS in this new context.How to manage operational change in a time of uncertainty

The economic impact of coronavirus means that many voluntary sector organisations will be going through a period of significant change over the coming months. For many of the hardest hit charities, the process of restructuring and making redundancies will sadly be inevitable. In this webinar we help organisations prepare for this context.Easing of lockdown – practical considerations for managing and supporting staff

The document summarizes key findings from the UK Civil Society Almanac 2020. It finds that while the number of organizations has remained stable in recent years, most are small with incomes under £100k. Total charity income and assets have grown but more slowly in recent years, with the public now the main income source versus government. Reserves are back to pre-2008 crisis levels but reductions in investments could threaten financial fragility. The paid workforce has reached 900,000 but is likely to decrease, while formal volunteering rates have remained stable though changing in form. The document outlines implications and practical support available for charities during the current challenges.NCVO Webinar: Legal and practical considerations for returning to work
