Abstract:
Every European country now has some distinctive heraldic conventions and traditions embodied in the designs and artistic representations of the emblems forming part of its national corpus. This paper deals with these matters in the period from independence in 1991 to the recent change of name in 2019. It deals with the successive designs proposed for the emblem of the state itself, some of which conformed to international heraldic conventions closely enough to be called “arms” or “coats of arms”, not including the emblem adopted in 2009. Special attention is given to the distinctive conventions created for municipal heraldry, including its novel legal framework, as well as those governing personal heraldry developed in the twenty-first century. The paper examines the evolution of heraldic thought and practice in Macedonia in the three decades in question, especially in the context of the Macedonian Heraldic Society and its journal, The Macedonian Herald, and its Register of Arms and the Civic Heraldic System it created.

Abstract:
The display of a “family crest” to signal family identity is prevalent in the contemporary United States. However, during the Gilded Age of the late nineteenth century, many American commentators perceived the widespread use of heraldry by the high bourgeoisie as at best a mark of social pretension and at worst a symptom of an un-American predilection for aristocracy. Over the course of a century, heraldic entrepreneurs sought to broaden the market for family crests, and in doing so Americanized heraldic practice. The early projects of Albert Welles, Frank Allaben and Frances M. Smith linked heraldry with new approaches to genealogical research and encouraged its use by a broad cross section of American society. In the late twentieth century, entrepreneur Gary Halbert sold millions of heraldic mementos that epitomized the modern commodification of history and identity. The result of a century of marketing is an American heraldry that is both more accessible than its European antecedents and less closely tied to verifiable genealogical relationships.

Abstract:
An important stage in creation and unification of title emblems of Muscovy is connected with the war between Russia and the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth and further changes of the title during the reign of Tsar Alexei Mikhailovich. At the turn of 1660s-1670s, a number of new title emblems appeared, while the old ones underwent yet another transformation. When creating new emblems, the Western European models were considered and in some ways the title emblems acquired a more pronounced heraldic character. Thus, some new emblems could have originated in the heraldry of the Scandinavian countries and the Holy Roman Empire, other, such as the Siberian coat of arms, combined heraldic symbols of the regions in the aggregate. In a number of earlier emblems Christian semantics were reinforced. Such Christian symbols as hand emerging from clouds, cross, gospel, banner with cross, etc. were added. Christian semantics of the titular heraldry are evident in the heraldic virsi (verses) written at the end of the reign of Alexei Mikhailovich. Despite the fact that the finished complex of title emblems was presented in the “Titulyarnik” of 1672, the old or different versions persisted, which proves the variable nature of title heraldry in the second half of the 17th century. Images of the title coats of arms in three illustrated copies of the “Titulyarnik” display unity, but some differences in detail allow to work out ownership of each copy. “Titulyarnik” was probably the first Russian land coat of arms, even if images of title coats of arms on some regals (saadaks, plates) still retained features of the old visual tradition. The existing complex of the title coats of arms was recorded in the late 17th century in several written sources with heraldic images. The complex of preserved heraldic sources allows to reconstruct the history of the title heraldry in Muscovy in its entirety and to identify main stages in its evolution.

Abstract:
Milan Sunko (Zidani Most, 5 December 1860 – Zagreb, 9 March 1891) was a heraldic artist, numismatist, and collector, who studied and started his carrer in Vienna working with the most renowned heraldists of the “classical” Austrian heraldic period. He moved to Zagreb where he made number of well received paintings and graphics and was supported by the intelectual elite of the fastly developing city. His brief spectacular carrier was abruptly ended by laryngeal tuberculosis, and he died in his 31st year. His works are preserved in several museums and galleries in Zagreb, and his heraldic lithographs and ex libris bookplates are remembered in specialized bibliography. However, the Croatian heraldic historiography has forgotten all about him and this paper attempts to remedy this. After the establishment of the Brotherhood of Croatian Dragon Society – one of its founders being Emilij Laszowski, notable Croatian heraldist; it took upon a project to preserve Sunko’s grave, exhuming his remains and providing a modest but dignified grave for him at the Zagreb cemetary in 1910. To achieve that, the Draconian Society raised funds in an international action, activating his foreign friends and fans, documenting the project in respectable heraldic periodicals.

Abstract:
Every European region and country has some specific heraldry. In this paper, we will consider heraldry in the People’s/Socialist Republic of Macedonia, understood by the multitude of coats of arms, and armorial knowledge and art. Due to historical, as well as geographical factors, there is only a small number of coats of arms and a developing knowledge of art, which make this paper’s aim feasible. This paper covers the earliest preserved heraldic motifs and coats of arms found in Macedonia, as well as the attributed arms in European culture and armorials of Macedonia, the кing of Macedonia, and Alexander the Great of Macedonia. It also covers the land arms of Macedonia from the so-called Illyrian Heraldry, as well as the state and municipal heraldry of P/SR Macedonia. The paper covers the development of heraldry as both a discipline and science, and the development of heraldic thought in SR Macedonia until its independence in 1991.

Abstract:
This article deals with the problem of research and attribution of heraldic stained-glass windows of the Swiss Union in the 16th century, when the art of stained glass was in its heyday. By this time, the formation of a new social class, the burghers, was being completed, whose wealthy families, thanks to the special historical conditions for the development of the Old Confederation, were able to have their own family coat of arms. In order to demonstrate their social status and services to society, coats of arms were placed in stained-glass windows, which were donated to churches. The purpose of the article: using the example of the heraldic stained-glass windows of the von Diesbach family, preserved in the church of the city of Worb, canton of Bern, is to show how the established rules of heraldry were transformed in the heraldic stained-glass windows of the Swiss Union. The study relies on sources in the form of surviving armorials, as well as official documents of the time, which depict the coat of arms of the von Diesbach family, which made it possible to conduct a comparative analysis of coats of arms in manuscripts and stained-glass windows. In the process of research, a technical and technological method was used to identify the possibilities of including heraldic symbols in stained glass compositions. As a result of the analysis of the heraldic stained-glass windows of the von Diesbach family in the church of the city of Worb, canton of Bern, it was concluded that they are a vivid example of the use of stable heraldic symbols, however, in the stained-glass windows of the Old Confederation (Swiss Union). the rules of heraldry were not applied too rigidly and consistently, they were interpreted in stained-glass windows taking into account the social structure of society, the location of stained-glass windows in architecture, as well as the technological possibilities of stained-glass art.

Abstract:
The article is devoted to the subjects and symbolism in the hunting heraldry of the Volyn and Kyiv regions in the 16th – early 17th centuries. Among the innovations of this time period is the appearance of atypical imagery in Ukrainian heraldry, namely that of wild animals and hunting horns. The author analyzes the well-known coats of arms associated with hunting, their prevalence and probable reasons for their obscurity in these areas compared to the Kingdom of Poland. In the early modern period, nobility used heraldic signs and legends to emphasize their ancient origins, land tenureship and political influence. The appearance of wild animals on Ruthenian coats of arms was symptomatic of the spread of Western heraldic tradition and hunting culture as such. There were multiple instances of symbiosis between the Ruthenian heraldic tradition and Western templates, the most striking of which is the “Korczak” coat of arms. It is believed that the mantling in the form of a dog of the Hungarian Vizsla breed, depicted sitting in a bowl is of Hungarian origin, but the image of the shield (an "escutcheon") of this coat of arms is actually Ruthenian, interpreted as three belts, logs or rivers. Less prolific than the “Korczak” coat of arms and its variations were the addendum of Western heraldic attributes to the old coats of arms, such as that of hunting horns. Most of the Western-style coats of arms known or relatively known in these areas belonged to those granted to the Grand Duchy of Lithuania nobility in 1413. Many of them were distributed mainly among the small gentry of Polish origin or Galician immigrants. Instead, in the Volyn and Kyiv regions, the gentry preferred their own historical coats of arms, created on the basis of ancient territorial symbolism. Conceivably, their commitment to ancient heraldic tradition was intended to accentuate their Ruthenian identity.

Abstract:
European heraldry presents itself as an intriguing collection of symbols that trace their roots to a number of sources, some of which are obvious to spot, while otters still lay in obscurity. When talking about heraldry, it is safe bet to assume that, for instance, the symbols that are collected from the animal kingdom underwent a process which transferred them a series of anthropomorphic qualities. The situation was no different for elements that were inspired by vegetation and celestial entities. Heraldry, as it is presented in academic environments, primarily traces its roots to the Old World – as a result, most heraldic symbols are directly linked to key-features, both cultural and environmental, that are native to the land. This turned into a major obstacle in the dawn of the early days of post-colonialism, marked by strong movement that aimed at restoring indigenous symbolism on coat of arms and flags of territories that earned their right to self-governance, or independence. This paper is focusing on giving an interpretation regarding the selection of heraldic symbols and vexillological chromatic schemes that were adopted by Russia’s federal subjects with a significant indigenous population. This will include an autonomous okrug, and autonomous republic, and a district from within a kray. We aim at determining if the used symbols reflect, or not, local indigenous identities, if the symbols that are used are entirely of European extraction, or if specific indigenous symbols made their way into the coat of arms of the featured territories. The research that was made concluded that the territories that are situated east of the Urals managed to customize their heraldic design through inserting element extracted from vernacular folklore, while the European territories have a more orthodox approach, using traditional heraldic motifs.

Abstract:
The significance of heraldic references in literature has been the subject of both antiquarian interest and recent scholarship. In the field of seventeenth-century poetry, there exists a small body of published work concerned with the use of heraldry by William Shakespeare, Ben Jonson and Jolin Cleveland. The aim of this thesis is to demonstrate the existence and significance of heraldic references in a wider range of seventeenth-century verse and poetry. It eschews assumptions regarding the use of heraldry by, or with reference to, a narrow social elite, and examines heraldic references published in broadsheets and used in songs, as well as in the privately- circulated manuscripts of the nobility. Chapter One offers a critical examination of a range of current scholarship concerned with heraldic readings of literature. Chapter Two demonstrates that formal heraldic references, affirming or celebrating their subject’s identity, were used in diverse genres, including dedicatory verses, encomia, epitaphs, elegies, epithalamia and anagrams. Chapter Three determines the social implications of the use of heraldry, with particular reference to epic and satirical verse, arguing that heraldic references in this period develop beyond their traditional, chivalric associations. Chapter Four discusses those works that include heraldic references as expressions of authority or political power, and considers their use in different contexts to affirm or undermine the position of individuals and groups within society. Chapter Five establishes the use of heraldry within religious or spiritual poetry and addresses whether its vocabulary was regarded as an expression of particular Christian values. Chapter Six explores the engagement of women writers with heraldry and considers how far their use of the language offered a challenge to the prevailing patriarchal culture. The Conclusion draws attention to the significance of the evolution of heraldry from the seventeenth century to the present day.

Abstract:
Heraldry has been called the "shorthand of history" and with its own specific rules, symbols and shields in use for over eight hundred years, it is still of value today. Heraldry was first used as identification method in battle, but spread to other spheres of society. Heraldry was always part of the military and is still more visible in use by the military than other parts of society. It is these rules, terminology, and symbolism that influenced the choice of topic to understand the meaning of the emblems. Heraldry is a science that studies the rules and terminology of armorial bearings, as well as the colourful and artistic emblems of individuals, families, communities or nations. In ancient times man used symbols to distinguish and to identify with his world view. Ancient man's symbolic illustrative or carved signs evolved from totems being used as emblems of identification with clan members, to flags, badges and shields used in the army and logos used as trademarks. It grew into a science of heraldry with hereditary and regulating rules and systems. Symbols can mean different things to different people, the construction and reconstruction of meaning rely on the different cultural contexts in which it is used. It is these cultural contexts and the cohesion between them that will unveil the deeper meaning and worth of heraldic emblems. The study aims at compiling a catalogue of South African Army military units by presenting the emblems of the different units to understand the significance of the emblem for its users. To achieve this an exploratory and descriptive investigation on heraldry and South African military heraldry was done, defining esprit de corps, symbolism, identity, traditions, indigenous elements and totemism. The study focuses on the period 1994 to 2014 to give a snapshot of emblems in use during this period. It was mostly the emblems of higher headquarters that changed. The colours of the old flag of orange, white and blue changed to green, gold or yellow, red, blue, black and white. In spite of changes, the unit emblem still forged a strong bond of identity amongst members.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis seeks to offer a systematic theological reflection upon the nature of preaching as both dialectical and heraldic, through a specifically Scriptural and pneumatological lens. The thesis begins, in chapter I, by mapping preaching's inseparable connection to Scriptural content, outlining the fundamental importance of the overarching 'clarity' and 'unity' of Scripture as vital entry-points to interpreting Scriptural tension. Scriptural 'unity' will be mapped with a variety of modern biblical and theological approaches to canonicity, and Scriptural 'clarity' will be mapped via the thought of the key Reformers, Luther, Zwingli, and Calvin. Having outlined these important foundational parameters for approaching Scriptural dialectics, it will be argued – leaning upon Barth's construal of biblical tension – that the concept of theological dialectic must be embraced within a theology of preaching, but without allowing it to override the preaching task. Upon this basis, it is then explored, in chapter II, what kinds of biblical tension may exist, since various terminology for 'dialectic' and 'paradox' within the theological and philosophical tradition have rendered their meanings increasingly obscure. Drawing upon a wide range of different thinkers for both clarification and construction – including Eckhart, Hegel, Kierkegaard, Chesterton, Barth, Tillich, Milbank and Žižek – it is argued that four primary dialectical modes exist within theological discourse, connoting 'incompatible' polarities, 'harmonised' polarities, 'hierarchical' polarities, and 'antagonistic' polarities. Having articulated a more specified account of dialectics, then, these dialectical modes are applied, in chapter III, to a theology of 'heraldic' proclamation. The notion of the heraldic motif for preaching will be explicated alongside its twentieth-century homil Following this, a more complex, dialectically-aware conception of heraldic preaching is offered. It will be argued – again, using Barth – that a theology of homiletical 'confidence' alongside dialectics is possible within this revised understanding of the preaching task. It will also be established that part of the heraldic role of preaching is to engage dialectically in different ways. This will be highlighted – with specific applications to various dialectical sermonic possibilities – by re-conceiving preaching as an act of contingent dialectical correctivity. This special license for preaching to articulate truths 'dogmatically' in the midst of dialectics is then buttressed pneumatologically, in chapter IV, where the notion of preaching as both Scripturally expository and pneumatologically prophetic will be established and conjoined. This will include an account of prophetic illumination and prophetic discernment in preacher and congregation, as well as a distinct focus upon the nature of preaching as pneumatological 'encounter', 'manifestation', and 'moment'. It will be seen that understanding preaching as 'pneumatological moment' offers a theological key to interpreting the relationship of dialectics to preacherly decisiveness. This will serve to present a robust account of the paradoxically heraldic and dialectical dimensions of Christian proclamation.

This thesis studies Spanish heraldry coat of arms used as a brand in the public administration, as well as the influence that commercial brands may have on its re-design. The research is developed within the wireframe of heraldic communication, exposing and analyzing the reality and graphic quality of a primary universe of study formed by coats of arms, and a referential universe composed by commercial brands. The process identified and validated, based on the frequency, a series of parameters proposed by specialists for the optimization of graphic brands. These initial parameters were perceptive, mnemotechnic, practical, technique, normative and of graphic quality.Based on the results, this research proposes: simplification and reclassification of the graphic performance parameters as indispensable, convenient, complementary and optional; to define as heraldic communication all sort of communication strategy based on heraldry and, as a heraldic brand, an accurate version of the original coat of arms that has been redesigned using the parameters exposed above; an instrument directed towards the optimization of heraldic coats of arms and the evaluation of existing redesigns from the Spanish public administration. Future research lines proposed are: government visual identity as a specialty of corporate visual identity and the Spain´s contemporary government heraldic aesthetic.

Abstract:
Heraldry, heralds and the Earl Marshal played a conspicuous part in English life during the period c.1480-1603. This thesis explores their significance in the military, diplomatic and court cultures of the period. In four thematic parts, it seeks to reveal their crucial importance in the politics and government of the period. The first section explores the changing status of royal heraldry and heralds, as chivalric culture took on a more monarchical bent and ideas of sovereignty crystallized. It attempts to demonstrate how the royal coat of anus and heralds became emblems of sovereign authority and imperial kingship. The second section investigates the role of heralds in war, politics and diplomacy, exploring the divers ways in which they were employed at home and abroad. It endeavours to explain the relative decline of their international responsibilities, and the persistence of their domestic functions. The third section examines how reforms at the English court and changes in the heralds' . internal affairs helped to re orient their activities towards armorial matters. It looks at the reasons why grants of arms, noble funerals and heraldic visitations came gradually to dominate the heralds' activities, and how the intersection of patronage and ideology drove changes to the rules governing the bearing of anus. The fourth section examines how one of the great officers of state, the Earl Marshal, exploited his military and heraldic jurisdiction for political advancement during the sixteenth century. It seeks to show how a symbiotic relationship between the heralds and the Earl Marshal gradually developed, driven by needs of patronage and mutual interest.

Abstract:
This study examines the ideological inflection of the ‘farm killings’ discourse in the Eastern Province Herald articles published in August 1998. ‘Farm killings’ is a media frame which was applied to a spate of killings of people on the country’s farms since 1994. Heightened and sustained media attention on the ‘farm killings’ has lifted the phenomenon from the other ‘run-of-the-mill’ murder crimes, and located it firmly as a matter of public concern and a subject of a broad political and economic debate. In this study I investigate the media coverage of the ‘farm killings’ within the context of these debates. The cultural studies approach to the study of the media provides a fruitful theoretical framework within which this study is located. The ideological examination of the articles is done using the critical linguistics method - a brand of reflexive, interpretative style of analysis which enables a sustained examination of media texts within their social, cultural and historical context. This study’s conclusions pose a challenge to the ‘Fourth Estate’ role often claimed for the media. In particular, it denies that the Herald objectively, fairly and truthfully reflected the experience on the farms during the period of this study. Its main finding is that the newspaper instead, constructed a particular understanding of the killings characterised by subtle racism, bias and partiality.

Abstract:
Imaging systems play a crucial role in shaping understanding of our surroundings. Modern imaging systems enable the acquisition of images of objects at length-scales and resolutions previously deemed impossible. However, as the drive for better images and novel applications increases, several questions fundamental to our understanding of imaging are being raised. We are familiar with images containing many millions of photons, but how many photons does it take to form an image? In scenarios requiring covert imaging, or where high-light levels damage the sample being imaged, is it possible to image a sample with a very small number of very low-energy photons? This thesis will focus on answering these two questions. In order to answer these questions I developed a heralded quantum imaging system. The strong spatial correlations inherent between down-converted twin photons have been utilised in many quantum imaging techniques for the past 25 years. Thus far, standard quantum imaging techniques have relied on scanning a fibre detector across the field of view in order to measure the spatial information in the image. However, the scanning mechanism fundamentally limits the detection efficiency of the imaging system. Recent years have seen an increased interest in using the latest camera technology within quantum imaging systems. The advent of single-photon-sensitive cameras has opened up new possibilities within the quantum imaging field. It is now possible to obtain images of objects by detecting very low-light illumination across the full scene simultaneously. In the heralded quantum imaging system presented in this thesis, a combination of quantum mechanics and a high-sensitivity camera was employed to obtain high contrast images containing very few photons. This was the first such system built. Using the correlations between the twin photons generated by our down-conversion source, and our development of compressive sampling techniques to post-process the acquired data enabled the acquisition of an image containing an average of only 0.5 photons per pixel. This represents a significant reduction when compared with a conventional image that contains of order 105 photons per pixel. I also developed this imaging system to use twin photons at vastly different wave- lengths. The object was probed with low-energy infrared photons whilst the image was developed on a camera using the correlated visible photon. This disparity in energy between the two photons enabled the acquisition of images using only several thousand photons, corresponding to an energy deposition on the sample of only a few pJ.

Abstract:
The original idea behind Herald was to create a South African Downton Abbey (ITV and PBS, 2010 -2015). Historical television is currently popular and Downton is appealing because it communicates interesting history, finds comedy in the manners and behaviours of the day and indulges in the visual pleasures of opulent aristocratic society. A historical setting is as foreign and exciting as a fantasy realm but it can still provide a platform to explore themes that are relevant and familiar to a contemporary viewer. Members of local government, military officers and other nobles and wealthy Britons at the Cape lived aristocratic lives not unlike the fictional inhabitants of Downton and yet a wholesale pastiche of the structure of Downton or the conventions of the period drama genre is inappropriate. The racial tensions that have defined the colonial and postcolonial periods of South African history and the Eurocentric, androcentric approach to that history necessitate a new approach. It is with this in mind that I have attempted to create a television miniseries inspired by the traditional period drama and by Downton Abbey specifically, but remoulded by the contexts of past and present day South Africa. I had several main goals in mind for this miniseries: to provide South Africans with entertaining television that tells local stories and, in so doing, encourage South Africans to engage with their own history; to grapple with contentious issues of the present such as race, gender and land, by exploring the past; to place strong black, Malay and female characters at the center of history and give them the agency to effect history; to provide a critique of the British and their actions at the Cape.

Hendricks, Kasey. Data for Alabama Taxation and Changing Discourse from Reconstruction to Redemption. University of Tennessee, Knoxville Libraries, 2021. http://dx.doi.org/10.7290/wdyvftwo4u.

Full text
Abstract:
At their most basic level taxes carry, in the words of Schumpeter ([1918] 1991), “the thunder of history” (p. 101). They say something about the ever-changing structures of social, economic, and political life. Taxes offer a blueprint, in both symbolic and concrete terms, for uncovering the most fundamental arrangements in society – stratification included. The historical retellings captured within these data highlight the politics of taxation in Alabama from 1856 to 1901, including conflicts over whom money is expended upon as well as struggles over who carries their fair share of the tax burden. The selected timeline overlaps with the formation of five of six constitutions adopted in the State of Alabama, including 1861, 1865, 1868, 1875, and 1901. Having these years as the focal point makes for an especially meaningful case study, given how much these constitutional formations made the state a site for much political debate. These data contain 5,121 pages of periodicals from newspapers throughout the state, including: Alabama Sentinel, Alabama State Intelligencer, Alabama State Journal, Athens Herald, Daily Alabama Journal, Daily Confederation, Elyton Herald, Mobile Daily Tribune, Mobile Tribune, Mobile Weekly Tribune, Morning Herald, Nationalist, New Era, Observer, Tuscaloosa Observer, Tuskegee News, Universalist Herald, and Wilcox News and Pacificator. The contemporary relevance of these historical debates manifests in Alabama’s current constitution which was adopted in 1901. This constitution departs from well-established conventions of treating the document as a legal framework that specifies a general role of governance but is firm enough to protect the civil rights and liberties of the population. Instead, it stands more as a legislative document, or procedural straightjacket, that preempts through statutory material what regulatory action is possible by the state. These barriers included a refusal to establish a state board of education and enact a tax structure for local education in addition to debt and tax limitations that constrained government capacity more broadly. Prohibitive features like these are among the reasons that, by 2020, the 1901 Constitution has been amended nearly 1,000 times since its adoption. However, similar procedural barriers have been duplicated across the U.S. since (e.g., California’s Proposition 13 of 1978). Reference: Schumpeter, Joseph.

Abstract:
Review question / Objective: This study undertook a meta-synthesis of qualitative data with the aim of collating, synthesizing, and evaluating the current evidence regarding the experiences of singing for people with advanced chronic respiratory disease. Condition being studied: Advanced respiratory illnesses are disorders that impact the airways and other structures of the lung. People with lung cancer, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and interstitial lung disease (ILD) frequently experience progressive, frightening breathlessness, cough and fatigue, which affect their quality of life. Furthermore, people with advanced chronic respiratory disease (CRD) and their carers experience a high prevalence of loneliness and uncertainty, especially if breathlessness is felt to herald death and thus, require both psychological and practical supportive care to cope with their symptoms.

Abstract:
The Engineering With Nature (EWN) program is a high-profile effort that aims to deliver cost-effective, broadly beneficial solutions to natural re-source and sustainability challenges across the nation. A portion of this is accomplished through the use of the EWN website, which features news, podcasts, articles, and more. The content on the EWN website serves to educate and inform hundreds of visitors monthly. This content is generated and managed by EWN team members with web development experience, as it requires manually editing the website HTML and staging changes on a development server. With the EWN website 2.0, a new website framework (WordPress) has been implemented that will save content managers time and effort by providing a front-end user interface (UI) to enable the uploading, staging, and approval of new content for the website, along with a visual refresh to herald the impending release of season 2 of the EWN Podcast. This document’s purpose is to demonstrate the functionality of the new EWN website and provide instructional material for those managing content via the new EWN website.

Full text
Abstract:
Since first appearing at the end of 2019, the novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) has spread at a pace and scale not seen before. On 11 March 2020, the World Health Organization (WHO) declared COVID-19 a pandemic. A rapid response was called for, and actors across the globe worked quickly to develop sets of preventative measures to contain the disease. One mode of transmission identified early on in the crisis was via surfaces and objects (fomites) (Howard et al. 2020). To combat this, hand hygiene was put forward as a key preventative measure and heralded as ‘the first line of defence against the disease’ (World Bank 2020). What followed was an unprecedented global focus on handwashing with soap. Health messages on how germs spread, the critical times at which hands should be washed, and methods for correct handwashing were shared (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention 2020). Political leaders around the world promoted handwashing and urged people to adopt the practice to protect against the coronavirus. The primary and secondary impacts of COVID-19 have affected people and industries in a variety of different ways. For the WASH sector, the centring of handwashing in the pandemic response has led to a sudden spike in hygiene activity. This SLH Rapid Topic Review takes stock of some of the cross-cutting challenges the sector has been facing during this period and explores the adaptations that have been made in response. It then looks forwards, thinking through what lies ahead for the sector, and considers the learning priorities for the next steps.
