The purpose of this study was to explore and understand the resilience processes employed by families from a low socio-economic background living in a predominantly black township (Mamelodi). The study further aimed to assess how the participants’ experiences have shaped their perceptions of their society. Walsh’s family resilience framework (2003) served as a conceptual framework for the study. Two grandparent-headed households were selected from an ongoing study at a nongovernmental organisation and drop-in centre in Mamelodi. A qualitative methodology was suitable for this study, bec

As the impacts of climate change are accelerated, due to continued emissions generating activities of industrialised nations, there is an increasing need for revised policies and climate change mitigation programs. The latter is, however, out of reach to vulnerable economies which are financially unequipped to afford such programs. In view of this, most turn towards debt financing, which can pose a risk to their economies in the long term as critical urban assets are used as collaterals; leading to unsustainable debt levels, posing a risk to the liveability of cities.

This dissertation examines the relationship between economic resilience, disaster experience, and smart growth policies at the local government level. The study is based upon three research questions that examine spatial distribution of economic resilience in Florida cities, and examines the impact of disaster experience, and smart growth policies adopted by local governments on economic resilience. Based upon the bounce-forward approach (Cowell, 2013; Klein et al. 2003), economic resilience is defined using three dimensions—economic stability, economic equity, and economic diversity. The spat

Abstract:

Background Multimorbidity, the co-existence of multiple health conditions in an individual, is a significant Public Health challenge. However, it has no consensus definition or measure, and its determinants and outcomes are not fully understood. Resilience may be a mechanism by which the experience of multimorbidity can be improved but there has been little study of this. Aim To define and measure the prevalence of multimorbidity and resilience to multimorbidity, to assess the role of mental health and childhood socio-economic status (SES) and to investigate the long-term outcomes.

A qualitative methodological design was followed to allow the accounts of the sample to emerge. A single grandmother-headed household was chosen to take part in a focus group.

This vulnerability means different public and private stakeholders must institute sustainable climate change mitigation and adaptation measures so as to ameliorate climate chang

Abstract:

Government policy development and implementation is often designed to address different sectors of society in isolation, so social, economic and environmental issues are considered as being distinct from one other. Recently it has been acknowledged that 'working in silos' is not conducive for good governance and so efforts have been made for better co-ordination between different government departments and different spheres of government. Our research findings show the knock on effects of one problem into other areas of people's lives, highlighting why it is vital for policies and programmes t

Abstract:

Cette thèse comporte quatre chapitres.Le premier chapitre examine comment les entreprises intégrées dans des chaînes de valeur mondiales réagissent aux pénuries d'intrants, en utilisant la pandémie de Covid-19 comme étude de cas. Les entreprises françaises qui se fournissaient en intrants en Chine juste avant le confinement précoce ont connu une baisse relative des importations de février à avril 2020. Ce choc se transmet au reste de la chaîne d'approvisionnement via les ventes domestiques et à l'exportation des entreprises exposées. Entre février et juin, les entreprises exposées ont subi une

Abstract:

This paper compares the depth of the recent crisis and the Great Depression. We use a new data set to compare the drop in activity in the industrialized countries for seven activity indicators. This is done under the assumption that the recent crisis leveled off in mid-2009 for production and will do so for unemployment in 2010. Our data indicate that the recent crisis indeed had the potential to be another Great Depression, as shown by the speed and simultaneity of the decline in the first nine months. However, if we assume that a large second dip can be avoided, the drop in all indicators wi
