TALX: Changing the conversation around sexual health
According to the CDC, “...fewer than half of high schools and only a fifth of middle schools [in the US] teach all 16 topics recommended by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) as essential components of sexual health education.” Our education system is failing students nationwide, and this failure is specifically affecting underserved Latino and African-American populations. While trying to understand why teen pregnancy is specifically prevalent in communities of color, we uncovered multiple layers of tension that surround sexual health. Social, religious, and political strains coupled with the discomfort and stigma around sexual health work to prevent teens from accessing life-altering information in schools and at home. Our platform will use innovative design and technology to bring information and resources directly to young adults in order curb health disparities. We will provide underserved communities with an accessible, confidential resource that can be used by schools and individuals.

SAVE THE GIRL CHILD CAMPAIGN BY ROTARY CLUB TAJ CITY.............FIRST MEETING OF 2013-2014 WITH A SOCIAL PROBLEM
The girl child rights
The girl child faces discrimination in many parts of the world. She is often viewed as inferior to the male child and receives less access to education, healthcare, and other resources. Gender-based discrimination against girls manifests in various harmful forms such as sex-selective abortion, neglect, and lack of opportunities. While laws and policies have promoted greater equality, cultural attitudes still undermine female children in some societies. Overcoming deep-rooted discrimination requires ongoing efforts to change mindsets and ensure girls can realize their full potential.
9/9 FRI 9:30 | Planning & the LGBT Community in Florida 1
Marisa Salas
In recent years, Richard Florida (Creative Cities) has highlighted the link between tolerance and a city’s ability to attract and retain the highly skilled and creative workforce that is required for high
technology industries to thrive. Florida finds that the presence of a visible LGBT population is an excellent indicator of tolerance. Yet most planners and planning documents look the other way
when it comes to acknowledging the presence of sexual and gender minorities within their cities. This session explores some of the critical issues surrounding planning for and with the LGBT community in the 21st century.
Gender issues in entrepneur development
As gender issues have become more mainstreamed in scientific research and media reports, confusion associated with the terms sex and gender has decreased. However, the discussion on sex and gender be integrated into our day to day conversations.

Foster care and homelessness
This document discusses research on transition age youth who age out of foster care. It notes that approximately 29,500 youth exited foster care in 2008 and that youth who age out have poorer outcomes in areas like homelessness, education levels, and employment. The document summarizes findings from the Midwest Study that followed youth who aged out and found extending foster care until age 21 led to improved outcomes in higher education attainment, earnings, health, and reduced pregnancy rates. The study identified four subpopulations of youth who aged out - accelerated adults, struggling parents, emerging adults, and troubled and troubling youth.

Gender Equality in the World of Works.pptx
Filipino women enjoy a relatively high level of gender equality compared to other parts of Southeast Asia, ranking 7th in the World Economic Forum's Global Gender Gap Index. However, there are still gaps between men and women in employment rates due to factors like gender discrimination, cultural and social barriers, and family responsibilities preventing many women from participating in the labor force. The Philippine government is taking a rights-based approach to promoting gender equality in employment through ensuring equal access to education, skills training, and lifelong learning opportunities to improve employability, as well as creating inclusive labor markets and social protections.
SPDP SONA.pptx
This document discusses violence against women in Kerala, India. It begins with defining different types of violence according to WHO and CDC. It then discusses how violence manifests across a woman's lifespan. Several studies finding high rates of domestic violence in India and Kerala are presented. Literacy in Kerala is high but so is violence, posing an irony. Suggestions include better law enforcement, support services, counseling, and legal awareness campaigns. Overall literacy alone is not enough - mindsets must also change to reduce violence against women in Kerala.

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.

Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune Disease
There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.
