Book Synopsis Child Marriage in Sub-saharan Africa by : Alissa Koski
Download or read book Child Marriage in Sub-saharan Africa written by Alissa Koski and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The marriage of any person below the age of eighteen, often referred to as child marriage, is widely considered a violation of human rights. Over the past decade the practice has garnered attention as a potential threat to women's health. Despite increasing discourse, estimates of trends in the prevalence of child marriage are dated and methodological challenges plague published studies of the relationship between child marriage and health. My thesis provides an updated examination of trends in sub-Saharan Africa, where rates of child marriage are highest, and aims to address some of the difficulties inherent in estimating the effects of child marriage on women's health. The first manuscript in this thesis describes changes in the prevalence of child marriage in twenty-nine sub-Saharan African countries over a twenty-year period. I used a novel estimation technique to avoid biases that may have affected earlier studies. My results indicate that the prevalence of child marriage has declined over time but the rate of decline has stagnated in some countries. Estimating the effects of child marriage on health is challenging for many reasons. The exposure is difficult to define and measure. Women married as children differ in many ways from their peers who married later in life, leading to concerns regarding confounding. I provide a critical evaluation of child marriage as a treatment within the potential outcomes framework and describe the challenge of approximating a causal contrast using observational data. The second manuscript included in this thesis makes the assumptions required for effect estimation more transparent through the use of matching techniques to estimate the effect of child marriage on the risk of domestic violence. Improving educational opportunities for girls is a promising mechanism for delaying marriage. Since the 1990s many sub-Saharan African countries have adopted legislation that prohibits public primary schools from charging tuition fees. Reducing financial barriers to schooling may result in greater educational attainment, particularly for girls. The third manuscript describes my evaluation of the effect of these legislative changes on the timing of reproductive events among girls in sixteen countries. Child marriage remains a pervasive violation of human rights that disproportionately affects girls throughout the developing world. Upholding these rights requires knowledge of the geographic distribution of child marriage and the effectiveness of policies that aim to end the practice. This thesis represents my contribution to this effort." --

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: According to me 'Spiritual Romance' is very important aspect of human life in the present day world. Romance is certainly a matter of person's heart and he/she is the best judge to give his/her views on the subject. Word romance is interpreted by individuals for the love they develop or experience during the course of their life time. As romance is a natural entity it also has a spiritual reality. As per Christian belief 'God loved mankind so much that He gave His only Son "Jesus Christ" as ransom on the cross of Calvary to save mankind.' Majority of people who believe in God tend to worship Him for who He is and love Him for being super-natural power. God Jehovah also has a perfect romance for His created beings. Finally God's romance will end-up in TWELVE TRIBES of Israel preaching the Gospel of Christ to the world when the Church will be taken up in rapture. When should this event happen? Let's find out. When God created Adam and Eve they lived in a spiritual atmosphere in the Garden of Eden. This means that they were spirit beings living in human bodies who walked and talked with God. That is the reason why human BRAIN or MIND has no direct point of contact with the Spirit of God but it is through one's own spirit he/she can come in contact with God. I have explained this by studying the testimony of a brother in Christ. I hope this writing will open up a new revelation of spiritual life for the readers. God Jehovah has revealed few things to me. One such revelation helped me understand the difference between - the Word 'Christ' and the Works (in India my friends call it KARMA).
Book Synopsis Social Work and Social Development by : James Midgley
Download or read book Social Work and Social Development written by James Midgley and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2010-05-19 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Social workers have been involved in social development for many years, but it is only recently that these ideas have been explicitly applied to social work practice. The result is that a new and distinctive approach to social work practice known as developmental social work has emerged. Developmental social work emphasizes the role of social investment in professional practice. These investments meet the material needs of social work's clients and facilitate their full integration into the social and economic life of the community. Developmental social workers believe that client strengths and capabilities need to be augmented with public resources and services if those served by the profession are to live productive and fulfilling lives. Although developmental social work is inspired by international innovations, particularly in the developing countries, it highly relevant to practice in the United States and other Western nations. In the first book to lay out a clear framework for developmental social work practice, chapters will focus on the traditional fields of social work practice, showing how social investment strategies can be adopted by social workers in their daily practice with populations including families and children, people with mental illness, homeless youth, people with disabilities, the elderly, and those in the correctional system. By facilitating clients' full social and economic participation through a variety of strategies, such as microenterprise or asset-building programs, practitioners can help bring about meaningful changes in clients' lives and throughout their communities. The editors and contributors offer a highly original exposition of developmental social work theory and practice, providing a definitive guide to an emerging and exciting new approach to practice.
Download or read book Voice and Agency written by Jeni Klugman and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2014-09-29 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite recent advances in important aspects of the lives of girls and women, pervasive challenges remain. These challenges reflect widespread deprivations and constraints and include epidemic levels of gender-based violence and discriminatory laws and norms that prevent women from owning property, being educated, and making meaningful decisions about their own lives--such as whether and when to marry or have children. These often violate their most basic rights and are magnified and multiplied by poverty and lack of education. This groundbreaking book distills vast data and hundreds of studies to shed new light on deprivations and constraints facing the voice and agency of women and girls worldwide, and on the associated costs for individuals, families, communities, and global development. The volume presents major new findings about the patterns of constraints and overlapping deprivations and focuses on several areas key to women s empowerment: freedom from violence, sexual and reproductive health and rights, ownership of land and housing, and voice and collective action. It highlights promising reforms and interventions from around the world and lays out an urgent agenda for governments, civil society, development agencies, and other stakeholders, including a call for greater investment in data and knowledge to benchmark progress.

Book excerpt: Background: This study was to address the phenomenon of child marriage in Africa and particular in sub-Saharan Africa. Sub-Saharan Africa was the target of the research, due to the high rate of the practice of child marriage in the world. This means that, 39 % of women aged 20-24 that were married before their 18 birthday live in the sub-Saharan Africa. The issue of child marriage is the concern of both boys and girls in Africa but in most case, girls are the most affected in that practice. This practice is a serious violation of human rights of boys and especially girls in that; it barred the girls rights to education, equality and development. Another chocking phenomenon is that, child marriage has a negative effect on the life of girls in that, it have harmful effect on the health of girls. Method: The desktop research: collect of information on line on internet. Results: The causes of child marriage in Africa are many, including: gender inequality against girls, poverty in families and insecurity and conflict. Strategies or interventions to overcome child marriage are as follows: the empowerment of girls through education; mobilize family and community to not prefer to married girls; help poor families to support their girls in school with conditional economic support. Conclusion: The study recommends programmes (for example of the Berhane Hewan) must be developed in order to ensure that, law is implemented. The Southern African Development Community (SADC) developed model law to combat the phenomenon of child marriage.
