Examining Disaster Risk Reduction in Indonesia

Building Social Resilience

&lt;p&gt;Chapter 1 &lt;span style="font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-font-kerning: 0pt; mso-ligatures: none; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA;"&gt;The Role of Social Capital in Enhancing the Community's Adaptation to Pandemic Disruption in Indonesia.- Chapter 2 Towards the Development of An Ideal Risk Communication by Acknowledging Local Culture.- Chapter 3 Considering Risk Culture to Strengthen Disaster Risk Governance in Indonesia.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

This volume, Climate Change and Children's Rights in Zimbabwe: Toward Social Policy-Based Interventions, provides a comprehensive examination of the intersection between climate change and children's rights in Zimbabwe, one of the world's most climate-vulnerable nations. It brings together diverse perspectives from sociology, law, development studies, anthropology, economics, and environmental sciences to challenge conventional approaches that treat children as passive victims of climate impacts. The book interrogates climate vulnerability through multiple dimensions, from legal frameworks and theoretical foundations to sectoral impacts and innovative adaptation strategies, showcasing transformative pathways for child-centred climate action that recognises children as rights-holders and active agents of change.\
The book outlines critical aspects and issues that must be understood and addressed to protect and advance children's rights in the face of accelerating environmental change. Attention is given to both persistent structural inequalities and innovative opportunities for building resilience through rights-based, gender-transformative, and community-grounded approaches. Through case studies spanning diverse districts, including Lupane, Bikita, Mbire, Chivi, Mashonaland Central, Gutu, Goromonzi, Zvimba, and others, it highlights how climate impacts manifest differently across Zimbabwe's varied ecological and socio-economic landscapes, affecting children's health, education, nutrition, protection, and overall well-being. It provides foundational perspectives into climate justice imperatives, multispecies justice frameworks, legal and policy gaps, and opportunities for transformative social policy that centres children's agency and Indigenous knowledge systems. The book is of interest to researchers, climate justice scholars, child rights advocates, development practitioners, humanitarian organisations, and policymakers committed to implementing more effective, equitable, and contextually appropriate climate responses that place children's rights at the centre of all climate action across Zimbabwe and the broader African continent.

Toward Social Policy-Based Interventions

Climate Change and Children's Rights in Zimbabwe

Routledge Studies in Health in Africa

Over the past 30 years, an ever-expanding community of global health actors have been intervening in the poorest parts of the world with the aim of combatting disease and improving health outcomes. While many global health programmes in the Global South have been successful in saving lives, their successes have often been compromised by poor coordination, inefficiency and a lack of alignment with national priorities.This book outlines the deep historical and political dimensions of this fragmentation, using rural Zambia as a case study. In the name of global health, different actors produce and circulate radically different stories about how to improve health. These narratives not only contribute to a fragmented landscape of health provision but also create more subtle and pervasive forms of fragmentation in the everyday lives of health workers, patients and government officials. Based on long-term ethnographic fieldwork in rural Zambia, this book examines three different global health interventions driven by differing stories of salvation, community and experimentation. Tracing the longer history of these stories, the book shows how they have failed to account for the realities of life in rural Zambia.Providing an innovative and nuanced analysis of global health that challenges the idea of fragmentation as simply a technical problem, this book will be an important read for researchers of global health and African studies.

Green Chemistry and Sustainability

Nanotechnology has become one of the most revolutionary scientific domains of the 21st century, providing answers for healthcare, renewable energy, environmental cleanup, and industrial advancements. Nonetheless, the swift expansion of this technology necessitates a comparable dedication to environmental responsibility and safety. Green Chemistry in Nanotechnology for Sustainable Synthesis, Characterization, and Applications of Nanoparticles meets this requirement by combining green chemistry principles with cutting-edge nanoscience.This edited collection offers an extensive summary of sustainable nanomaterial creation, starting with fundamental principles and synthesis methods based on renewable resources. It explores eco-friendly and bioinspired methods for producing gold, silver, calcium, and metal oxide nanoparticles, backed by in-depth case studies. Extensive coverage is provided on advanced characterization techniques, delivering insights into structural, morphological, and functional assessment. The book examines various applications, such as food packaging, antimicrobial surfaces, catalytic processes, energy devices, and biomedical technologies. A specific part on nanotoxicology showcases contemporary safety evaluation techniques, including organs-on-chips and 3D cell culture systems, while conversations regarding ethics and sustainability stress responsible innovation. The combination of scientific, safety, and social factors sets this work apart in its breadth. By connecting core concepts with real-world uses, the book acts as an essential tool for researchers, scholars, and industry experts aiming to create nanotechnology solutions that are not only efficient but also safe, sustainable, and ethically responsible. Policymakers and regulatory organizations will also appreciate it for developing frameworks that guarantee nanotechnology aids in advancing global sustainability objectives. This book merges green chemistry with nanotechnology, enabling synthesis from sustainable pathways and characterization through advanced techniques jointly with applications and ethical considerations all under one roof. Works by world top-rated scientists propose renewable-resource-based, bioinspired, and eco-friendly routes toward synthesis of widely varying nanoparticles that make sense in real life. Case studies with applications in health care, food packaging, catalysis, and industrial plus environmental remediation work supported by the most advanced tools of nanotoxicological assessment, such as organs-on-chips and 3D cell cultures, are also presented here. Scientific novelty will be integrated with safety and sustainability so that learners can not only create new forms of nanomaterials but also "create safely." By combining breadth, depth, and practical insight, this work stands as an indispensable guide for researchers, industry professionals, policymakers, and educators shaping the future of sustainable nanotechnology.

The Geography of the Port of London (1957) deals with the mid-century functions of the port studied in relation to their physical setting and in the light of their historical development. An analysis of the roles of the various dock and wharf systems is followed by a discussion of the present commerce of the port, illustrated by post-war statistics. The multiple background to this activity is also presented, including a discussion of the 1950s physical condition of the River Thames and of the markets and industries associated with the port. It presents a comprehensive picture of this at-the-time greatest British seaport, considered with reference to certain principles of economic geography.

Research for Development

This book examines postwar Italian craft and design (1948-1962) through a multidisciplinary lens, reassessing its significance today. It explores the enduring appeal of artifacts within and beyond museum contexts, emphasizing their role as dynamic tools that transcend historical value. Addressing future challenges, the book highlights their relevance in enriching society, supporting creative industries, and aligning with UNESCO’s 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. Building on seminal exhibitions such as "Il Design Italiano Degli Anni ’50" (Milan, 1981), "Anni Cinquanta" (Milan, 2005), and "Il Modo Italiano" (Montreal-Toronto-Rovereto, 2006-2007), the book underscores the pivotal role of 1950s design in shaping Italy’s postwar renewal. It testifies to the emergence of a vibrant creative world rooted in cultural heritage and sustained by networks of artisans, manufacturers, artists, designers, and architects – each contributing to an interconnected and territorially grounded design culture. Organized into three thematic sections, it explores the uniqueness of Italian design (Section 1: On the Uniqueness of Italian Design), archival practices (Section 2: Archives for Memory and the Future), and exhibition strategies (Section 3: Made in Italy on Display Inside and Outside Museums). The book advocates for innovative strategies in data and memory sharing to enhance the understanding and appreciation of Italy’s cultural assets, ensuring their continued relevance while maintaining their connection to local identities and production practices. Drawing on case studies, experts from diverse fields – including architecture, museums, decorative arts, craft, product and interior design – examine Italian craftsmanship’s heritage and its connections to local communities. Their essays illustrate how interdisciplinary enquiries converge into a unified narrative, benefiting from modern approaches to preservation, communication, exhibition, and promotion across physical, digital, and virtual experiences. The book also addresses practical concerns for individuals, industries, archives, museums, and cultural institutions. It provides insights into best practices for presenting design artifacts, leveraging social media for engagement, and fostering partnerships to amplify the impact of cultural initiatives. Emphasizing community participation and cross-sector collaboration, it emphasizes the importance of sustaining Italy’s design legacy. Beyond academia and professional circles, the book engages a wider audience by raising public awareness of Italy’s cultural heritage and its nature for future generations. It suggests strategies for mitigating overtourism, enhancing engagement with Italy’s design heritage, and developing sustainable tourism initiatives that support local communities. By demonstrating the lasting influence of Italian craftsmanship and design, the book positions heritage as a living tradition that continues to shape contemporary life.

CRESC

Shanghai actively uses culture to promote itself as a global city. This book explores how this has been conceived and pursued, and what questions it raises for notions of 'culture' and 'economy' as understood in the West. If theoretical work around the 'cultural economy' has problematized these two, this book locates these debates empirically in a non-western metropolis.
