Abstract:
An analysis of the social pedagogical work with difficult children is presented, outlining characteristics, specifics and approaches for prevention and social accompaniment. In order to highlight the specifics of this group of children, a comparison is made with two other groups of children in a situation of life difficulty - "socially disadvantaged children" and "children at risk". The analysis refers to the understanding that difficult children are children with impaired emotional development, difficulty in communicating with others and disrupted behavioral control, all of which can lead to consequences both on a personal and behavioral level. It is emphasized that difficult children turn into such in situations where adults cannot find an adequate approach to them, and most often these adults are members of the family, parents, or teachers. An overview of scientific positions on difficult children by English, American, Russian and Bulgarian researchers is offered. This is the basis for outlining the main spheres which affect children negatively and categorize them as "difficult children" - emotional-personal; learning-cognitive; behavioral; somatic. The reasons for children’s difficult behavior are examined, including: the family and the flaws in it; the lack of spiritual connection between parents and children; the asocial environment; participation in criminal groups; errors in the work of educational institutions; economic difficulties that have influenced all spheres of public life. The characteristics of problem children are presented that account for the formulation of the principles of social pedagogical work with them. It is emphasized that one of the important approaches in the work is the development of skills for social inclusion, social expression and self-assertion. The model for social pedagogical work with difficult children is developed in two aspects: preventive work and social accompaniment. Preventive work consists in constantly informing all stakeholders - teachers, educators, non-pedagogical staff in educational institutions and the family on the opportunities for preventing "difficult children" on the one hand, and ensuring interaction between the participants in the preventive activities as well as striving to attract more organizations and institutions, on the other. The social accompaniment as a social pedagogical work includes: identification of children with difficult behavior at the earliest stage of the disadaptation process, diagnosis of the factors of the difficult behavior and the reasons for the disadvantage, preparation of an individual road map for working with the child, implementation of the individual program for accompanying the child, measuring and analyzing the results of the child's work and his / her close circle.

Abstract:
The article reveals the main means, forms and possibilities of using information and communication technologies in preventive social work with various categories of the population. It is noted that the need for the use of information and communication technologies by social workers in the prevention of negative social phenomena is due to the informatization of society, the strategic importance of ensuring free access of various categories of the population to information, the need for personal information culture, healthy lifestyle. It is noted that the most common mass, informational, methodological and research measures for the prevention of negative social phenomena in the activities of social workers today cannot do without the use of information and communication technologies. Information and communication technologies of professional activity of a social worker are defined as a technology of designing and creating an information product for social and socio-educational purposes. The advantages and disadvantages of using information and communication technologies in preventive social work are considered. The essence of the social services of prevention, information support of the system of providing social services, social advertising in the context of the use of information and communication technologies in the professional activity of a social worker has been determined.

Abstract:
The techniques for preventing risk have traditionally been analyzed on an individual basis, it being highly complex to apply preventive procedures across the board in construction works. This implies the necessary risk assessment based on the common factors of Safety at Work, Industrial Hygiene, Ergonomics and Psychosociology. This work analyzes and classifies the environments which characterize the building process: absolute (initial), documentary, construction, social and life cycle, and identifies the technical-documentary processes associated with each one. Finally, a new risk assessment method adapted to building works is proposed, called “Level of Preventive Action”, by means of a new mathematical formula which encompasses Safety at Work, Industrial Hygiene, Ergonomic and Psychosociological factors. It is based upon the development of the William T. Fine method, adapting it to construction works, with the incorporation of six parameters to explain the degree of correction. It consolidates and connects environment parameters to determine the preventive action level of the construction work, with the objective of establishing the levels of preventive control required to achieve an optimum prevention situation. The results of comparison between the environments in the implementation of the new risk assessment methodology during the construction process in a real building work are shown.

Abstract:
Ante la grave situación de la violencia de género que se está viviendo y su aumento en colectivos como el adolescente, el trabajo social tiene un papel clave en su detección precoz y en su prevención. Se presentan las aportaciones teóricas y prácticas que sustentan un trabajo social comunitario desde la socialización preventiva de la violencia de género; así como la necesidad de formación de las futuras personas profesionales del trabajo social en las principales aportaciones de la comunidad científica internacional sobre detección precoz y prevención de la violencia de género para que sean capaces de llevar a cabo en un futuro ese trabajo social comunitario desde la perspectiva de la socialización preventiva de la violencia de género. In view of how serious the current gender violence situation is and of the increase of such violence in some groups as the adolescents, social work has a key role in gender violence early detection and prevention. Theoretical contributions are presented, as well as practices which support a community-based social work starting from a preventive socialization against gender violence. The need to train the future social workers in the main contributions of the international scientific community about gender violence early detection and prevention is also emphasized. This training will enable them to carry out, in the future, this community-based social work from the gender violence preventive socialization perspective.

Abstract:
The relevance of this paper is due in large part to the general and urgent transition of the Russian education system to a new format of training and upbringing the younger generation, to changes in the format of interaction between subjects of prevention of deviant behavior and aggravation of risks and threats in the Internet space for children and adolescents. The article deals with the issue of using the Internet space, in particular social networks, as a means of preventing and correcting deviant and/or delinquent behavior. The author provides a generalized classification of social networks and draws attention to the positive and negative aspects of social networks, focusing on the Internet and media dependence. The signs of dependence on social networks which are highlighted in the article are of professional interest to social sphere specialists involved in preventive work with minors. The purpose of the article is to provide guidance for social sphere specialists on how to interact in the space of social networks, in particular, algorithms of working with their positive and negative content to solve psychological and pedagogical problems. The final part of the article presents the main findings of the research that could be useful for social workers, counselors of children, juvenile inspectors, and other subjects of prevention of deviant behavior of minors.

Abstract:

Family centres are established to serve families with children and the personnel usually consists of units of social-workers, preschool staff, paediatric nurses and midwives. The purpose of the study was to examine the social-workers preventive work with families at the family centre. To fulfil the purpose, a qualitative interview with five social-workers was conducted. The theoretical framework referred to attachment and empowerment theory. The results of the study showed that the main part of the work consists of giving advice and support to parents. The social-workers do also organize different group activities. One example of group-work was about teaching parents to interplay with their children. Some work is also carried through in a structural level. The target groups are very varying, and consist of parents with different income, origin and social networks. Furthermore the study showed that the social-workers apprehend that most of their visitors are satisfied with their work. The important possibility united with the social work in a family centre is to meet the families in the beginning of parenthood, and to offer help early. The difficulties consist among other things to collaborate with the paediatric nurses and midwives, and also to claim the importance of their work towards employers and politicians.

Abstract:
The objective of this exploratory descriptive research was designed to investigate the “Relationship Between the level of knowledge about HIV/AIDS and the Practicing of Preventive Behaviors Among African American College Students.” The population was comprised of 40 African American male and female college students ranging from ages 18-25 who attend one of the three African American colleges within the Atlanta University Center. The results revealed that there is a statistical relationship between the level of knowledge this population has about HIV/AIDS and their engaging in preventive behavior. However this relationship is a very weak one. Students know about the various components of HIV/AIDS yet they continue to engage in “risky behaviors.”

This study aims to explore how secondary prevention carried out at a Honduran institution for youth at risk is experienced by its professional workers and former residents. This qualitative research is based on ethnographic approaches conducted at Hogar de Niños Renacer, Tegucigalpa, which is a facility for institutional care of youth at risk. Renacer applies a holistic, multidimensional approach to preventive work by covering various dimensions of youth development such as needs for emotional care, education, and spiritual growth. All research participants claim that positive aspects of Renacer include the provision of such possibilities. The project is constantly developing and accommodates various areas in need of improvement such as acquiring sufficient, competent staff. The majority of individuals who have participated in Renacer‟s project are proven to establish a functioning adult life after leaving the institution.

Abstract:
Denna uppsats har syftat till att undersöka förståelsen kring sexköp ur regionkoordinatorers och samtalsterapeuters perspektiv samt vilka strategier som förespråkas i det preventiva arbetet. För att besvara studiens syfte och frågeställningar har sex semistrukturerade intervjuer med yrkesverksamma inom området genomförts och materialet har sedan analyserats utifrån ett maskulinitetsperspektiv. Resultatet visade att de förklaringsmodeller som professionerna använder för att förstå och beskriva mäns köp av sexuella tjänster är hur sexköpet kan ses som en effekt av könsmaktsordningen, att sexköpet kan vara ett resultat av mäns svårigheter att uttrycka känslor, att sexköpet kan verka som en enkel utväg samt hur pornografin kan sudda ut gränser och skapa fantasier hos män. Vidare visade resultatet att de strategier som professionerna förespråkar i det preventiva arbetet är bemötandet och dess centrala roll i behandlingen för män som köpt sex samt utbildning till barn och unga i frågor som rör jämställdhet, könsnormer och pornografi.
The purpose of this study was to examine the understanding of sex purchases from the perspective of regional coordinators and therapists who work with men who bought sex, and what strategies they advocate in the preventive work. To answer the purpose of this study, six semi-structured interviews were conducted and the material was then analyzed with a masculinity perspective. The results showed that the explanatory models that professionals use to understand and describe men's purchases of sexual services are how the purchase of sex can be seen as an effect of the gender power order, that the purchase of sex may be a result of men's difficulty expressing emotions, that the purchase of sex can seem like a simple way out and how pornography can blur boundaries and create fantasies. Furthermore, the results showed that the strategies that the professions advocate in the preventive work are the treatment and its central role in the treatment of men who have bought sex as well as education for children and youths in issues relating to gender equality, gender norms and pornography.

Abstract:
Since 2014, the National Coordinator has been responsible for protecting our democracy against violent extremism in Sweden. Today, it is clear that the preventive aspect against violent extremism and radicalization cannot be adjusted only to law enforcement. On a national level, the Government has implemented a strategy against terrorism and an action plan to increase the strength of our democracy towards the threat of violent extremism. Every municipality is participating in the national work and network against violent extremism. As a part of the national action plan, the municipalities’ employees, local police, and civil society have the best opportunity to prevent violent extremism. Many municipalities have adopted a plan of actions on a local level, and the employment of local coordinators has increased. However, many of them still have much work left with the implementations, and some have not even started. This case study aims to examine how two different municipalities in Kalmar county are operating with the recommendations from the national level and how they work to prevent radicalization and violent extremism. One of the chosen municipalities has, at this moment, publicly presented a plan of action on how and which institutions should work to prevent violent extremists and the second have not. I will use the following research questions, to study how these municipalities are operating with the recommendations from a national level concerning radicalization and violent extremism. • How do the municipalities implement the strategies and policies on the prevention of radicalization and violent extremism put forward by the Swedish Government? • How do the institutions in the municipalities work with, and how do they assess their work on the prevention of radicalization and violent extremism? To reach a result and understanding of my research questions, a methodology containing an abductive case study with semi-structured interviews was made to collect current and primary information. The findings indicate that collaboration between actors in the municipalities is vital in order to strengthen the democracy and the democratic values that protect our society from violent extremism and radicalization.

Abstract:
Juvenile delinquency is acknowledged as a social problem but the research is often focused to larger cities. The purpose of the study was to elucidate the understanding of professionals of the problem of juvenile delinquency in a smaller town like Örkelljunga municipality. We also wanted to investigate how the understanding of juvenile delinquency is used, is disseminated and contributes to developing practices in the work against juvenile delinquency. To be able to answer the purpose of this study, we decided to do a case study. The selection of interviewees was made through snowball selection and qualitative interviews were conducted. We also reviewed meeting documents from a local project working on crime in the municipality. The conclusion in our study is that the professional social workers in Örkelljunga have created a natural practice that strives to involve and nurture young people into a life without crime. This is done through relationship-building projects in which young people on glide are involved in a context of positive role models.

Abstract:
In this paper I will present my research about different kinds of social workers, and there way of looking at and working with adolescents alcohol use. To get my result, we interviewed eight social workers from four different organizations. The Interview participants were people working with adolescents on their spare time, and in the school environment. There were also participants representing social services and the police. The theory that we have chosen to apply to our thesis is systems theory. The results shows that professionals in Oskarshamn see that high school youth alcohol consumption generates large negative effects on the individual. One of the most complained of the impact of young girls drinking is so serious implications, as different forms of sexual exploitation. The result also shows that the preventive work is the focus of efforts to combat youth alcohol use.

Abstract:

Syftet med denna studie är att undersöka om föräldrarna uppfattar att deras samspelsförmåga med barnen och varandra förändrats efter genomförd föräldrautbildning, sett utifrån ett föräldraperspektiv. Frågeställningarna är följande: (i) anser föräldrarna att de fått verktyg att hantera sina barn på ett annorlunda sätt efter genomförd föräldrautbildning, (ii) uppfattar föräldrarna att de samspelar med barnen på ett annat sätt efter genomförd föräldrautbildning, (iii) uppfattar föräldrarna att de samspelar med varandra på ett annat sätt efter genomförd föräldrautbildning. Metodvalet är kvalitativt och datainsamlingen har skett med hjälp av ostrukturerade intervjuer. Undersökningspopulationen var sex föräldrar, tre kvinnor och tre män. Urvalskriterierna var att föräldrarna skulle ha genomfört föräldrautbildningen COPE riktade till föräldrar med barn i åldersgruppen 3-12 år. Tolkningsramen utgörs av tidigare forskning och social teoribildning. Resultatet visar att föräldrarnas uppfattning är att samspelet med barnen förbättrats tack vare föräldrarnas egen förändring. Samspelet föräldrarna emellan uppfattades ej ha förändrats i någon större utsträckning.


The aim with this study is to examine whether the parents perceive that their ability to interact with their children and with each other has changed after accomplished parent training. The issues are as follows: (i) are the parents of the opinion that they have been provided with tools to handle their children in a more accurate way after accomplished parent training, (ii) do the parents perceive that they interact differently with their children after accomplished parent training, (iii) do the parents perceive that they interact with each other differently after accomplished parent training. The method chosen is qualitative and the research consists of unstructured interviews from the survey population of six parents, three women and three men. The selection criteria was to choose parents who had participated in the parent training COPE, a training targeted to parents with children from the age of 3-12 years. The interpretation framework is constituted of earlier research and social theory. The result shows that the parents´ perception is that the interaction with the children has improved thanks to the parents own change of attitude. However, the parents do not perceive that the interaction between each other has changed to the same extent.

Abstract:
Organizations are giving greater attention to workers' quality of life, seeking to implement measures related to health, safety and the environment. However, to implement these measures, it is necessary to follow standards defined by the Ministry of Labor. Due to the rigidity of standards and the amount of information needed to file in audits, companies spend a lot of time and effort. In this context, EHS was proposed, a web system that integrates information on health, occupational safety and environmental processes. The system aims to manage the information in a way that facilitates audits and helps management to take decisions and implement preventive measures in the company.

Abstract:
The Camisea Pipeline Transmission System (PTS) in Peru consists of two parallel pipelines, a Natural Gas (NG) pipeline and a Natural Gas Liquids (NGL) pipeline. The NG pipeline is 834 km long, including a 105 km loop. The NGL pipeline is 557 km long. Since 8 years ago and as a part of the current operation of the system, maintenance activities are being carried which, within its objectives for improvement, seek to establish a preventive approach instead a corrective approach. The involved areas in this new Management approach are geo-technics, pipelines, environment, communities and integrity. This paper describes the process named Integral Plan for Operating Risks. This process is a result of the updating of the geological-geotechnical base-line, in relation to the environmental and social context, allowing a comprehensive analysis of the status of the relation between the works and its environment, as well as planning prevention tasks able to guarantee the stability of the right of way (RoW) and the pipeline Integrity. This job is performed by both desk work (remote interpretation) and field work conducted by multidisciplinary teams, which ensures a transverse communication flow. All of this is backed by a digital database and a geographical information system (GIS). A Technical Atlas is constructed as a graphic document containing a series of cartographic and text cards regarding the sector under study as a useful instrument of preventive management for intervention in a given area. To date, a comprehensive remote analysis of the RoW has been completed and an in-site field analysis has started, upon which strategies are being developed in order to control items such as geological hazards, geological architecture, vegetation architecture, RoW stability, etc. Jobs were competed along the first 12 km as a pilot experience, which is being replicated all along the RoW.

Abstract:
The data of an experimental study of the features of aggressive behavior in teenage drug addicts, as well as the possibility of controlling and self-regulation of aggressive manifestations in this category of individuals are presented. The growth of aggressive trends in adolescence reflects one of the most acute social problems of modern societies, where drug addiction, alcoholism, and juvenile delinquency have risen sharply in recent years. To study the features of aggressive behavior of teenage drug addicts, we used a battery of valid methods and methods aimed at assessing the specifics of aggressive manifestations, personal, motivational, strong-willed and other features of teenage drug addicts. The article shows that, indeed, the aggressive behavior of teenage drug addicts has its own distinctive features, determined by the presence of accentuation or psychopathy of character, inadequate self-esteem, self-centeredness; violations of attitudes, motivation, affective sphere of personality, with irritability and increased excitability; the predominance of verbal, physical forms of aggression, suspicion; the orientation of aggression to external objects, in addition, the characteristics of the aggressive behavior of teenage drug addicts depend on a number of microsocial factors, etc. In order to increase the effectiveness of preventive and rehabilitation work with aggressive teenage drug addicts, such methods of action show effectiveness as: mandatory and primary treatment of adolescents is drug addicts, the inclusion of adolescents in this category in the anonymous grooms of drug addicts, in the system of socially recognized and socially approved activities the use of psychotherapy, methods of active psychological impact; conducting educational and preventive work with the inner circle of a teenage drug addict, etc. The article presents reasonable conclusions from a stating experiment, and offers recommendations for the prevention and correction of selfregulation of aggressive manifestations in teenage drug addicts.

Abstract:
Abstract The spread of infectious diseases such as COVID-19 in a typical oil and gas facility setting, the health of employees, their families and their communities, is of real concern to the industry. In this work, a suitable predictive, agent-based model is used to predict the spread of COVID-19 in different settings as well as to evaluate strategies to block the spread. The agent-based modelling work is based on the simulation platform, Complex Organization and Bifurcation Within Environmental Bounds, or COBWEB. COBWEB simulates how a system of autonomous agents adapts to variation and sudden changes in the resource base or other features of their environment. Previous COBWEB simulation results illustrate that the tool is useful for predicting the evolution of COVID-19 spread and the effectiveness of various preventive actions including self-isolation of symptomatic people, social/physical distancing, effective PPE use, and ‘shielding’ (physical isolation) of the high-risk population. We adapted model parameters to better represent uncertainty about what might be expected in such a setting, in particular by shifting the distribution of risk severity towards ineffective PPE use, self-isolation and poor social distancing, which expectedly shows upward trend of the spread of the COVID-19. Ultimately, governments and industry can apply the predicted trends, as well as apply the model to specific settings, to make more informed decisions on the additional measures and preventative strategies to curb the spread of COVID-19.

Abstract:
Although knowledge about HIV/AIDS is widespread in South Africa, adult HIV prevalence is high, indicating high levels of risky sexual behavior. Understanding the gap between knowledge and behavior requires an examination of the social context in which the epidemic occurs. The Horizons Program conducted an intervention study in the Carletonville area to study the social determinants of the HIV epidemic and to assess the impact of a targeted program of HIV and STI prevention and service delivery. In 1998, the Mothusimpilo (“Working together for health”) Intervention Project (MIP) was launched to reduce community prevalence of HIV and other STIs and to sustain those reductions through enhanced prevention and STI treatment services. Carletonville includes many migrant mine workers and is characterized by significant poverty and unemployment, the presence of sex work, and high rates of STIs. MIP targets population groups where high-risk sexual behavior is thought to be common. This brief focuses on sex workers because of their vulnerability to STIs and HIV infection and their link to miners and men in the broader community.
