Download or read book PROMOTION DE LA SANTE ET AUTONOMISATION DANS LE CONTEXTE AFRICAIN written by David HouŽto and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2014-02-26 with total page 327 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le terme promotion de la santé en Afrique, près de 30 ans après l'adoption de la Charte d'Ottawa, continue d'avoir des connotations complètement hors du sens que lui confère cette charte. Cela n'est pas étonnant quand on sait que la notion de santé dans ce contexte africain équivaut à la lutte contre la maladie à travers les soins de santé dispensés par des professionnels de la santé dans des formations sanitaires et les hôpitaux. L'évolution que connait le continent depuis quelques décennies est de donner un peu plus de place à la communauté à travers les relais communautaires dans une participation communautaire vidée de son contenu, car le pouvoir n'est jamais passé entre les mains des communautés.C'est au vu de tout ceci que le présent ouvrage à sa raison d'être pour expliquer les fondements de l'autonomisation communautaire et de la promotion de la santé avec leur importance pour la région africaine en proie aux mauvais indicateurs de santé comparativement aux autres régions du monde.

Gender-based violence, including violence against women, remains a key human rights challenge in contemporary Europe and in the world. Working with young people on human rights education is one way of preventing gender-based violence from occurring. By raising awareness on why and how it manifests and exploring its impact on people and in society, gender-based violence will no longer go undetected. Gender really does matter, to women, to men, to young people - to all of us. This manual serves to explore these human rights issues and act upon them."--Book jacket.

Download or read book Life Interpretation and the Sense of Illness within the Human Condition written by Anna-Teresa Tymieniecka and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In medicine the understanding and interpretation of the complex reality of illness currently refers either to an organismic approach that focuses on the physical or to a 'holistic' approach that takes into account the patient's human sociocultural involvement. Yet as the papers of this collection show, the suffering human person refers ultimately to his/her existential sphere. Hence, praxis is supplemented by still other perspectives for valuation and interpretation: ethical, spiritual, and religious. Can medicine ignore these considerations or push them to the side as being subjective and arbitrary? Phenomenology/philosophy-of-life recognizes all of the above approaches to be essential facets of the Human Condition (Tymieniecka). This approach holds that all the facets of the Human Condition have equal objectivity and legitimacy. It completes the accepted medical outlook and points the way toward a new `medical humanism'.

Download or read book Accounting for Culture written by Caroline Andrew and published by University of Ottawa Press. This book was released on 2005-03-30 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many scholars, practitioners, and policy-makers in the cultural sector argue that Canadian cultural policy is at a crossroads: that the environment for cultural policy-making has evolved substantially and that traditional rationales for state intervention no longer apply. The concept of cultural citizenship is a relative newcomer to the cultural policy landscape, and offers a potentially compelling alternative rationale for government intervention in the cultural sector. Likewise, the articulation and use of cultural indicators and of governance concepts are also new arrivals, emerging as potentially powerful tools for policy and program development. Accounting for Culture is a unique collection of essays from leading Canadian and international scholars that critically examines cultural citizenship, cultural indicators, and governance in the context of evolving cultural practices and cultural policy-making. It will be of great interest to scholars of cultural policy, communications, cultural studies, and public administration alike.

Download or read book The Irreducible Needs Of Children written by T. Berry Brazelton and published by Da Capo Lifelong Books. This book was released on 2009-02-23 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What do babies and young children really need? This impassioned dialogue cuts through all the theories, platitudes, and controversies that surround parenting advice to define what every child must have in the first years of life. The authors, both famed advocates for children, lay out the seven irreducible needs of any child, in any society, and confront such thorny questions as: How much time do children need one-on-one with a parent? What is the effect of shifting caregivers, of custody arrangements? Why are we knowingly letting children fail in school? Nothing is off limits, even such an issue as whether every child needs or deserves to be a wanted child. This short, hard-hitting book, the fruit of decades of experience and caring, sounds a wake-up call for parents, teachers, judges, social workers, policy makers-anyone who cares about the welfare of children.

Download or read book Art and Sustainability written by Sacha Kagan and published by Transcript Publishing. This book was released on 2011 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kagan starts his analysis pointing at the Western development model and the modern worldview that lie at the heart of unsustainability. He characterizes the modern worldview as based in the classical scientific method and as atomistic, materialistic, individualistic and Eurocentric. Kagan's assumption is that in order to change our actual culture of unsustainability in a sustainable one, we will have to look for an alternative worldview and go beyond utilitarian rationality that is so very common in our contemporary cultures and in most analyses of sustainability. We will have to engage ourselves in a really fundamental rethinking of our culture and our ways of thinking, knowing and seeing ourselves and the world. With an overview of ecological art over the past 40 years and a discussion of art and social change, the book assesses the potential role of art in a much needed transformation process. Review in: International journal of cutural policy.19(2013)1(141-143).

Book excerpt: Dans une perspective résolument pragmatique, les auteurs tentent de répondre aux questions que se posent les enseignants face à la complexité de leur métier et des exigences du milieu scolaire. * Comment, tout en tenant compte des besoins fondamentaux des élèves, éveiller des motivations à apprendre pour des contenus vraiment spécifiques à l’éducation physique scolaire ? * Comment, dans les groupes-classes hétérogènes, choisir, organiser et animer les activités pour que chaque élève soit "reconnu bon" quelque part, à un moment donné ? * Comment, face aux inévitables confrontations des générations, face à l’indiscipline et au décrochage, accéder à une relation éducative enrichissante, et pour les élèves et pour l’enseignant lui-même ? * Comment, en construisant sa pédagogie, construire son métier d’enseignant ?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Depuis qu'elle existe dans l'Ecole (Loi J. Ferry), l'éducation physique a toujours eu à prouver sa valeur éducative et intellectuelle. Il lui fallait montrer sa capacité à développer l'intelligence verbale et conceptuelle. Ces présupposés (idéologiques ou politiques) ont fait longtemps de cet enseignement une sorte de parent pauvre. P. Arnaud plaide au contraire pour le plein essor d'une recherche scientifique et pédagogique en Education physique et sportive.

This book was released on 2023-04-20 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Les deux dernières années ont rappelé au milieu scolaire la nécessité de s'adapter à un monde frappé par des crises de plus en plus régulières. Elles ont, par la force des choses, façonné l'émergence d'une nouvelle normalité éducative . À la lumière des enjeux soulevés sur les plans de la santé physique et mentale dans le quotidien de publics scolaires fortement déstabilisés, cette période trouble, source de questions fondamentales sur la vie, la démocratie et l'exercice de la liberté aura catapulté à l'avant-plan les défis de l'appropriation du numérique éducatif et de l'enseignement à distance jusque-là en émergence sans manquer d'interroger au passage la place allouée à l'éducation physique à l'école tout autant que les limites des modèles éducatifs dominants qu'elle promeut. Sans équivalent dans l'espace francophone, Enseigner l'éducation physique en contexte scolaire constitue le fruit d'une collaboration internationale de grande ampleur. Les 25 contributions originales que présente cet ouvrage s'inscrivent sous cinq grandes thématiques toutes aussi d'actualité qu'incontournables peu importe où le lecteur se situe sur le continuum du développement professionnel: 1) Devenir enseignant d'éducation physique; 2) Programmer et établir des conditions favorables à l'apprentissage en éducation physique; 3) Pluralité des publics scolaires et inclusion en éducation physique; 4) Diversité des objets d'intervention en éducation physique et 5) Accompagner la relève enseignante en éducation physique. Parce que les enseignants d'éducation physique sont des acteurs très influents dans le cheminement scolaire des élèves comme dans celui de celles et ceux qui aspirent à une carrière dans l'enseignement de cette discipline, chacune des contributions présentées vise l'enrichissement de leur formation initiale et continue comme de leurs interventions à l'école ou sur le terrain de la formation à l'enseignement. Toutes ambitionnent aussi de soutenir le rôle d'ambassadeur que ces enseignants peuvent jouer auprès d'autres acteurs scolaires clés au profit de cette discipline carrefour trop souvent dévalorisée et dont la pertinence socio-scolaire est périodiquement reconsidérée au gré des idéologies dominantes et des jeux d'influences. Enfin, chacun des chapitres contenus dans cet ouvrage espère ouvrir les perspectives du lecteur et l'inviter à prendre une part active dans le repositionnement de l'éducation physique en démarcation du modèle scolaire de l'ère industrielle arrivé en fin de vie et qui est, lui aussi, à repenser au profit d'une éducation à la hauteur des défis du XXIe siècle.
