Abstract:
In 2002, the National College for School Leadership launched what was regarded as the largest educational networking programme in the world. This brought together groups of schools to collaborate over developing agreed areas of their work. This thesis outlines a research project aimed at networks who were members of this programme and whose main activity had been action research conducted by network members. This research was intended to examine, and to understand, the participatory aspects of networks of this sort. Five overarching themes were drawn from the literature on participatory interv

Background: The maternity system has a complexity of everyday ethical issues.

Midwifery-led care is guided by the International Confederation of Midwives International Code of Ethics, which considers more than the bioethical principles, such as the importance of relationship.

Abstract:
The phenomenon of street children is world-wide and on the increase despite numerous programs aiming at its eradication. The failure to adequately address this complex and very diverse phenomenon is the result of conceptual confusion with respect to defining who a street child is. The dominant discourse on street children defines them as victims or deviants to be rescued and rehabilitated. As such, the capacity of many of these children for human agency is occluded by excluding them from participation in the construction of solutions to their problems. I argue that, far from being mere
