Building a rights-based approach to nutrition for women and children: harnessing the potential of women’s groups and rights-based organizations in South Asia

Women face numerous gender-based barriers that hinder their access to resources, nutritious foods, nutrition services, and maternity entitlements. Evidence shows that certain types of women’s groups can improve women’s access to resources and social capital and in some approaches also improve health and nutrition outcomes. Women’s rights-based organizations in South Asia have a longstanding tradition of collective action toward gender equality. Women’s rights-based organizations work in areas such as microfinance, livelihoods, women’s rights, health, and combating violence against women. In this perspective article, we explore how women’s groups and rights-based organizations can leverage their collective strength to advance nutrition outcomes for women and children. We identify seven pathways implemented through women’s groups toward improving nutrition outcomes. These pathways include (i) income generation, (ii) agriculture, (iii) health and nutrition behavior change communication and participatory learning and action, (iv) advocating for rights to better health and social services, (v) food access, (vi) cash transfers, and (vii) strengthening service delivery and fostering convergence with health systems. We also note that women’s groups have the potential to implement integrated interventions through combined food-systems-rights pathways. Investing in this area can support transforming nutrition policy from a service delivery model to a rights-based approach.

Stimulating Innovation Work in Sports in the Republic of Belorussia

The article reveals the notion of innovation work in view of economy methodology and shows its importance for the development of the field of physical training and sports. Key categories of workers were identified, whose interaction could foster the development and introduction of innovation in the given field. The article shows motivators of innovation work and highlights legal base and stimulating factors of innovation work in organizations of physical training and sports in the Republic of Belorussia. The author grouped certain categories of workers in organizations of physical training and sports by job descriptions and tariff grades with regard to key factors characterizing innovation work and demonstrates categories of workers in organization of physical training and sports, whose job descriptions do not include the need to introduce innovation in accordance with their classification. Serious contradictions were revealed between workers’ job descriptions and availability (absence) in them obligations to introduce innovation in organizations of physical training and sports in the Republic of Belorussia. The author put forward key trends aimed at resolving the problem of stimulating workers in organizations of physical training and sports to introduce innovation, which can be settled in legislative area and by specifying contacts between employer and worker.

Assessment of stress and anxiety levels among doctors of therapeutic specialties

Introduction. In a situation of high epidemic risk during the pandemic of the new coronavirus infection COVID-19, nurses turned out to be one of the most vulnerable categories among health workers in terms of the level of professional stress, professional burnout, anxiety, use of coping strategies, and decreased quality of life. Objective. To establish the characteristics of professional burnout, the level of anxiety, implemented coping strategies and the quality of life of nurses working in the «red zone», multidisciplinary hospitals, and polyclinics during the COVID -19 pandemic. Material and methods. The study was carried out at the Department of Occupational Diseases and Clinical Pharmacology named after Honored Scientist of the Russian Federation, Professor V. V. Kosarev, Samara State Medical University of the Minis try of Health of Russia, and the Regional Center for Occupational Pathology, Samara City Hospital No. 5. The following groups of medical workers were examined: the first group consisted of nurses working in the «red zone» (MS, working in the «red zone») (n=29); the second group consisted of nurses working in a multidisciplinary hospital (MS, working in a multidisciplinary hospital — MPS) (n=31); the third group consisted of nurses working in outpatient clinics (MS, working in a outpatient clinic) (n=29); the fourth, control group (CG), included employees of engineering and technical and economic specialties, not related by profile of activity to work in medical organizations (n=190). The assessment of professional burnout syndrome was carried out using the questionnaire for assessment of professional burnout «Maslach Burnout», developed by American psychologists S. Maslach, S. E. Jackson in adaptation by N. E. Vodopyanova, E. S. Starchenkova, as well as the questionnaire of V. V. Boyko. The study used the Integrative Anxiety Test (IAT) to study the formation of psychoemotional disorders in nurses during the NCI pandemic. The assessment of coping strategies in nurses during the NCI COVID-19 pandemic was carried out according to the method developed by R. Lazarus and S. Folkman in 1988, adapted by E. V. Kuftyak. The quality of life was determined using the SF-36 questionnaire. The obtained data were processed using the Statistica statistical package from StatSof t (USA). Results. It was found that the work of the MS during the COVID-19 pandemic is associ ated with the impact on health workers of a number of specific risk factors associated with the provision of medical care to infected patients, as well as with significant changes in work regarding aspects related to the organization, safety, which contribute to an increase in the level of professional stress, professional burnout, and a decrease in the quality of life. Conclusion. The work of RNs in the conditions of a COVID hospital, when compared with RNs working in the MPS, nurses working in outpatient clinics, is associated with an increase in the level of professional stress, the level of professional burnout, the level of anxiety, an increase in the level of use of coping strategies, and a decrease in the quality of life. It is necessary to continue research into the emotional state of RNs in order to conduct timely preventive treatment to maintain the health of this category of health workers. Limitations of the study. The study has regional (Samara Region) and professional (according to the details of working conditions in the studied comparison groups) limitations.

Распространение социально значимых заболеваний в Кабардино-Балкарской Республике.

One of the key priorities of the state policy in the field of healthcare is to reduce the incidence of socially significant diseases, improve and introduce methods of prevention, early diagnosis of these diseases, increase the effectiveness of their treatment and rehabilitation. In the Kabardino-Balkarian Republic (KBR), as a result of the implementation of program measures in the Russian Federation to prevent and combat socially significant diseases in recent years, there has been a tendency to decrease the growth of indicators characterizing the health status of the population for these diseases. In order to maintain the achieved indicators, as well as further develop the organization of medical care for persons suffering from socially significant diseases, the situation in the KBR has been analyzed in the KBR. The purpose of the study: to analyze the situation in the KBR on socially significant diseases. Materials and methods. The results of the examination of patients with socially significant diseases for the period from January 2022 to december 2023 hospitalized in the medical institution of the KBR are analyzed. Results. When analyzing the results of the examination of patients with socially significant diseases, a multidirectional dynamics is observed. Thus, when analyzing the incidence and mortality of tuberculosis, there is a decrease in key indicators in 2023 compared to 2022. However, when analyzing other socially significant diseases such as cardiovascular diseases, HIV infection, diabetes mellitus, oncological diseases, alcoholism, mental and narcotic diseases, there is an increase in 2023. Especially, the increase in cancer incidence compared to 2022 amounted to 4.4 percent. Conclusions. In order to diagnose socially significant diseases as soon as possible and reduce deaths in the OLS, it is necessary to properly organize the work of the general medical network, namely, to introduce modern methods of etiological diagnosis, to organize consultations of narrow specialists. To improve the work in terms of increasing the effectiveness of preventive work of medical organizations, especially with citizens who are at risk, including personalized accounting and constant dynamic monitoring with preventive measures based on the results of medical examinations, as well as targeted preventive examinations.

Further research within specific field in public health is recommended to identify additional, field-specific competencies essential for effective leadership in diverse organisational settings.

BUILDING RESEARCH AND EVALUATION CAPACITY OF INTERGENERATIONAL INITIATIVES: EXAMPLES FROM THE FIELD

Abstract Conducting evaluations to assess the impact of projects, services, and programs is often a daunting task for nonprofit and grassroots organizations. More so, developing research projects that document the need for the work of these social-purpose organizations can be difficult for staff and volunteers busy with day-to-day responsibilities. This presentation will showcase an ongoing academic-organizational partnership created to increase the research and evaluation capacity of a national nonprofit organization and its network of nascent and established grantees bringing older and younger people together to work on major social and environmental issues. Topics addressed will be establishing and cultivating trusting and transparent relationships, developing a scope of work, using an organization-centric research capacity-building approach, engaging students in these efforts, and more. Further, specific examples of products from these research and evaluation projects will be shown to illustrate how to navigate the conflicting needs of academics on the tenure-track with those of community-based organizations. The primary implications of this academic-organization partnership are twofold: First, this model, piloted with an organization focused on fostering new intergenerational initiatives, can be used by gerontological researchers in a variety of fields to benefit the community while aligning with established academic expectations; and second, leaders within these nascent intergenerational initiatives have now learned how to conduct basic program evaluations within their own organizations, which should ultimately lead to the strengthening of programs that bring the generations together.

DEVELOPMENT OF PERFORMANCE INDICATORS SYSTEMS FOR RUGBY UNION OF RUSSIA

This article is devoted to the review of approaches to the development of performance indicator systems through the prism of the work of Rugby Union of Russia. This work is relevant because the assessment and planning of the activities of any sports organization (including those related to rugby) is possible only if its work is correctly analyzed. The issue of developing such systems is acute for the reason that, due to the specifics of each organization's work, an individual approach is often required to solve this problem. it is important to correctly and correctly identify criteria for evaluating the effectiveness of the work of a sports organization.

VOLUNTEER MOVEMENT IN UKRAINE AS AN ELEMENT OF THE NATIONAL SECURITY SYSTEM: MODERNITY AND PROSPECTS

The article examines the phenomenon of the domestic volunteer movement as an important element of the system of national security and stability in war conditions. The main directions of volunteer activity and the interaction of volunteer organizations with state authorities are outlined.The emphasis is on the uniqueness of Ukrainian volunteering as a phenomenon of civil society cohesion and mobilization of the social activity resource of certain population groups in response to an external threat. The features of the periods of formation and functioning of the volunteering institute in the country and the main directions of work since 2014 are considered.It has been emphasized that the current period of volunteer organizations in the country can be characterized as a creative development of the experience already acquired in 2014-2017 during the anti-terrorist operation in Eastern Ukraine and the development of competencies of its participants in normalizing cooperation between volunteers and the authorities. The process of transforming the volunteer movement into a component of the national security system was facilitated by the adoption by the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine of the Military Doctrine of Ukraine (2015) and a number of laws. These are the Law of Ukraine “On National Security of Ukraine” (2015), the Law of Ukraine “On Amendments to the Law “On Volunteer Activities” (2015) which stabilized the legal relations of volunteers with the state and contributed to the further reassessment of the role of volunteers in strengthening national security.It has been also emphasized that the volunteering stage since 2022 has combined the experience of previous years with modern technologies and international support, creating a qualitatively new level of efficiency in providing the needs of society in the conditions of escalating hostilities.The priority areas of work of volunteer organizations during military operations, starting in 2022, have been revealed. They include active assistance to units of the Armed Forces of Ukraine that are directly on the “line of fire”. Volunteers actively provide the military with the necessary equipment, including ammunition, body armor, helmets, tactical equipment, means of communication and personal protection. As for the population of the “front-line” territories, this work covers a wide range of activities aimed at meeting basic human needs – food, medicine, clothing, household repairs. Volunteers provide internally displaced persons with food, clothing, footwear, medicines, hygiene products, as well as warm things for the winter period, etc.The challenges to the activities of volunteer organizations have been analyzed, the main of which are the uneven distribution of resources, insufficient social protection of participants in the structures, lack of funding, and shortcomings in integration into national security policy programs.

Against Dismemberment: Relationality and the Re-membering of Documentary Heritage

Since the late nineteenth century, many archivists and other custodians of documentary heritage have referred to aggregated records as ‘organic wholes,’ emerging from and reflecting the lives and work of people, families, and organisations. As a result, this heritage is often managed in silos that are arranged and described by archivists, records managers, librarians and related professionals using particular standards, systems, and sector-specific ways of working. Such practices, carried out in the name of ‘memory,’ often result in a dismembering, a dissociation of records and the information they contain from their contexts. In this paper, we focus on archives and documentary heritage, not as organic wholes, but as the essential ‘connective tissue’ in living, complex, and continually evolving systems of remembering and re-membering meaning. Using museum and anthropological records as case studies, we explore the continuing risks of dissociation and argue for more relational, interdependent ways of working within and beyond memory and heritage institutions. Embracing relationality and the multiple re-membering of archives and collections reveals that the contemporary relevance of documentary heritage lies not just in items themselves, but in their essential connective role within wider cultural, historical, social and political processes.

Enhancing corporate accountability through covert situational integrity testing (CSIT)

ABSTRACT This article explores the potential of ‘covert situational integrity testing’ as a mechanism for assessing corporate/organisational compliance with legal rules and standards, the goal being to enhance corporate/organisational accountability. There are major challenges to holding corporations/organisations to account for non-compliance: low detection levels, incomplete understanding of the inner workings of organisations, and the modest power of current social scientific research methodologies. This article argues there is scope for methodological innovation through the use of covert situational integrity testing, a variation of mystery shopping methodologies, to address some of these gaps, with a focus not on service quality or customer satisfaction but on compliance with regulatory and legal requirements, and as a data gathering tool on secretive and difficult to access areas of business operation. We focus on two examples: AML compliance by challenger banks, and the promotion of aggressive tax avoidance schemes. Our core argument is that covert situational integrity testing provides a research mechanism through which robust and systematic observational data can be collected and scrutinised by independent, third-party assessors to understand levels of organisational/corporate compliance with legal rules and standards, and by doing so, identify critical vulnerabilities and strengths in the compliance responses of organisations and industries.

Retrospective analysis of methods for efficient assortment building in pharmacy organizations

Introduction. One of the characteristic features for the modern pharmaceutical market in conditions of economic and political instability is a high level competition among its participants. Competition among pharmacy organizations has a dominant role, where a competent approach to managing the product assortment is important. Supervisors’ main task is to use optimal combinations of methods for analyzing the product portfolio aimed at efficient assortment building under a waste of minor resources. Objective. The aim of the research was to systematize the methods for studying the trade matrix and to select their rational combinations within the bounds of assortment policy development in a pharmacy organization. Material and methods. The study was carried through content analysis of science textbooks on a given topic. In order to assess the frequency of the methods considered and their possible integrations in publications, an electronic resource eLibrary.ru was used. The analysis of publications frequency in the frame of the pharmaceutical market was carried by filtering such keywords as “pharmacy”, “medicinal preparation/ drug”, etc. Results. Having conducted a literature review, we classified the methods for analyzing the assortment of a pharmacy organization into two groups: a market one (based on the calculation of economic evaluation) and a conceptual one (aimed at development of an assortment management strategy). Balanced combinations of methods were described (both within the same classification group and from different groups). Having assessed the methods frequency within the frame of publications, we found out that a number of integrations had a low frequency rate despite their rational use, which indicated the relevance of these combinations active implementation into the work of pharmacy organizations. Conclusion. Thus, in order to conduct a full analysis of the assortment and to adapt to the internal and external environment factors, it is rational for the administrative management of pharmacy organizations to use a set of methods while choosing complementary combinations. This allows you to include into the analysis a larger number of parameters for a more comprehensive study and a “working” assortment building

The Effect of State Minimum Wage Increases on CEO Compensation: Evidence of Labor Donation in Nonprofit Organizations

ABSTRACT In this paper, we test the “labor donation” hypothesis, which posits that intrinsically motivated individuals willingly accept lower compensation to work in nonprofit organizations (NPOs). We do so by examining the response of NPO CEO compensation to exogeneous increases in labor costs resulting from state-level minimum wage hikes, finding these increases are followed by declines in CEO compensation. Consistent with the labor donation hypothesis, we find the declines in compensation are larger for CEOs who we expect to have greater intrinsic motivation, i.e., those whose NPOs are headquartered in counties with higher levels of religiosity, in counties with greater levels of social capital, and those who work for a local NPO as opposed to a national NPO. In contrast to the decline in compensation we observe for NPO CEOs, we do not find an impact on for-profit CEO compensation. JEL Classifications: G3; J33; J38; L3; L3.
