Download or read book The Palgrave Handbook of Critical Menstruation Studies written by Chris Bobel and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-07-24 with total page 1041 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access handbook, the first of its kind, provides a comprehensive and carefully curated multidisciplinary and genre-spanning view of the state of the field of Critical Menstruation Studies, opening up new directions in research and advocacy. It is animated by the central question: ‘“what new lines of inquiry are possible when we center our attention on menstrual health and politics across the life course?” The chapters—diverse in content, form and perspective—establish Critical Menstruation Studies as a potent lens that reveals, complicates and unpacks inequalities across biological, social, cultural and historical dimensions. This handbook is an unmatched resource for researchers, policy makers, practitioners, and activists new to and already familiar with the field as it rapidly develops and expands.

Download or read book Hygiene Promotion written by Suzanne Ferron and published by Practical Action Pub. This book was released on 2007 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a fully revised new edition of this acclaimed practical manual.Indispensable for fieldworkers on projects or programs aiming to reduce the incidence of water-and-sanitation-related diseases, this book will also be useful for other relief and development workers, particularly those working in the fields of community development, health, and engineering.The authors describe a wide range of approaches to hygiene promotion that can be used in different settings. Central to these approaches is a commitment to working in collaboration with people and encouraging them to take more control over the factors that influence their lives. The authors stress the need for a form of hygiene promotion that fosters capacity-building rather than the provision of information alone.The opening chapter of the manual introduces the reader to the context of emergency relief and development projects and provides insights into current hygiene promotion theory. The main body of the text then goes on to consider the four phases of the project cycle--assessment, planning, implementation, and monitoring and evaluation--each of which is assigned a chapter for discussion. These chapters draw together the experience of hygiene promotion fieldworkers in many emergency and rehabilitation, water, sanitation, and hygiene program undertaken by CARE and other agencies. The annex comprises other useful material including a series of concise "how-to" guides, pictures for use or adaptation in the field, information about hygiene-related diseases and how to prevent them, and an annotated bibliography.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Humanitarian crises are growing in length and complexity due to external destabilising pressures including conflict, COVID, and climate change, with the average length of refugee situations now exceeding twenty years. Until now, there has not been any specific WASH publication of this kind that reflects on these fundamental external factors that will play a vital role in the delivery of WASH services over the humanitarian-development divided within the context of fundamental sub-sectors. In their second insightful book on this important topic, Marielle Snel and Nik Sorensen call for humanitarian and development WASH professionals to work together in a more coordinated manner to develop more effective humanitarian WASH programming that keeps long-term development goals in mind. In this book, the authors bring together experts from across the humanitarian/development fields, with a focus on the humanitarian-development-peace nexus and a multi-sectoral response to connecting humanitarian and development sectors as an innovative answer to bridging these challenges. Contributors reference case studies to look more closely at ways each sub-field could better integrate with WASH programming. There is no one size fits all solution to an integrated humanitarian-development response. However, the authors and contributors in this book provide deeper insights into the "how" question underlying integrated WASH programming. This work will be of interest not only to professionals working in the humanitarian and development WASH sector, but also to others across the humanitarian, development, and peace sectors ranging from government officials to managers working directly or indirectly around WASH.

This book was released on 2009-10-25 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the human population grows-tripling in the past century while, simultaneously, quadrupling its demand for water-Earth's finite freshwater supplies are increasingly strained, and also increasingly contaminated by domestic, agricultural, and industrial wastes. Today, approximately one-third of the world's population lives in areas with scarce water resources. Nearly one billion people currently lack access to an adequate water supply, and more than twice as many lack access to basic sanitation services. It is projected that by 2025 water scarcity will affect nearly two-thirds of all people on the planet. Recognizing that water availability, water quality, and sanitation are fundamental issues underlying infectious disease emergence and spread, the Institute of Medicine held a two-day public workshop, summarized in this volume. Through invited presentations and discussions, participants explored global and local connections between water, sanitation, and health; the spectrum of water-related disease transmission processes as they inform intervention design; lessons learned from water-related disease outbreaks; vulnerabilities in water and sanitation infrastructure in both industrialized and developing countries; and opportunities to improve water and sanitation infrastructure so as to reduce the risk of water-related infectious disease.
