Download or read book India s Undernourished Children written by and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2006 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The prevalence of child undernutrition in India is among the highest in the world, nearly double that of Sub-Saharan Africa, with dire consequences for morbidity, mortality, productivity and economic growth. Drawing on qualitative studies and quantitative evidence from large household surveys, this book explores the dimensions of child undernutrition in India and examines the effectiveness of the Integrated Child Development Services (ICDS)program, India's main early child development intervention, in addressing it. Although levels of undernutrition in India declined modestly during the 1990s, the reductions lagged behind those achieved by other countries with similar economic growth. Nutritional inequalities across different states and socioeconomic and demographic groups remain large. Although the ICDS program appears to be well-designed and well-placed to address the multi-dimensional causes of malnutrition in India, several problems exist that prevent it from reaching its potential. The book concludes with a discussion of a number of concrete actions that can be taken to bridge the gap between the policy intentions of ICDS and its actual implementation."

Book excerpt: This book is about the important problems that the higher education sector in Kerala is at present confronting the State government has been in recent years showing an increasing tendency towards withdrawing from the sector, thus abdicating its primary responsibility and of encouraging privatization and crass commercialization. It examines the questions of access, equity and equality in the higher education sector of the State.

Self-financing institutions have appeared in all faculties Arts, Humanities and General Sciences, Engineering, Technology and Medicine and several para-medical courses. The confrontation between the State government and the managements of self-financing institutions on questions of tuition fees, admission procedure and community reservation is getting murkier by the day.// The studies included in this volume discuss issues relating to barriers to professional education, the deterioration of standards, and the gender dimension involved. The issues discussed are substantiated with data collected through meticulous case studies. The findings are significant and revealing of the diversity and magnitude of the problems involved. The study concludes with a short discussion of the implications of the findings.

Download or read book Master Players written by Gretchen Reynolds and published by Early Childhood Education Seri. This book was released on 1997 with total page 123 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Developed as a companion volume to ""The Play's the Thing"", this book defines and analyses the concept of master player based on videotaped observations of pre-school children at play. By interweaving sequences of play together with their dialogue about them, the authors model how teachers can work as a team to develop their understanding of a particular child and of the value of children's quality play, and how they can support it. The in-depth discussion between the authors reveals the multi-facted nature of play, individual differences in both teachers' and children's styles, and the complexity of intervention decisions made by teachers.
Download or read book Kerala written by Richard W. Franke and published by Food First Books. This book was released on 1994 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kerala, a state in southwestern India, has implemented radical reform as a development strategy. As a result, Kerala now has some of the Third World's highest levels of health, education, and social justice. Originally published in 1989, this book traces the role that movements of social justice played in Kerala's successful struggle to redistribute wealth and power. A 21-page introduction updates the earlier edition. This book underlines the following positive lessons that the Kerala experience offers to developing countries: Radical reforms deliver benefits to the poor even when per capita incomes remain low. Popular movements and militant progressive organizations with dedicated leaders are necessary to initiate and sustain reform. Despite their other benefits, radical reforms cannot necessarily create employment or raise per capita income. Local reformers are restricted by national politics. Public distribution of food is a highly effective policy in poor agrarian economies. Devoting significant resources to public health can bring about low infant mortality, high life expectancy, and low birth rates even when incomes are low. Widespread literacy and educational opportunities can help create a more just and open social order. Meaningful land reform can reduce inequalities and give resources to the poor. Wage and working-condition laws can help effect more equitable resource distribution even in a poor economy. Greater socioeconomic equality can lead to lower levels of violence and a healthier social and political environment. Women can benefit from radical reforms not aimed at them, but special attention must eventually be given to their needs. Progressive forces, including Communist parties, can play a major positive role in benefiting very poor Third World citizens. Radical reforms can shield the poor against recessions. Contains over 200 references. (TD)
