Abstract:
Purpose Breast cancer remains the most prevalent cancer among Malaysians today. Almost two thirds of patients are diagnosed in the late stages of disease, stage III to IV, with poorer outcomes. In addition, evidence has also revealed that most of patients who present in these late stages are those from poorer socioeconomic backgrounds. Women from underprivileged backgrounds have been found to have poorer health-seeking behavior, especially in terms of screening for cancer. This is for a number of reasons, such as affordability, distance to health centers, and other socioeconomic factors, which

It is widely recognized that entrepreneurship development holds the key to all-round economic development of a nation. Entrepreneurship has now become the catchword in India’s economic development as well. India being a multicultural society with high incidence of inequality is divided sharply in terms of the underprivileged and the privileged sections. For widespread economic development India cannot ignore the development of the social groups who are underprivileged and are at the bottom of the pyramid.

Abstract:
Abstract The increasing dependence on knowledge as a driver of societal development during the twenty-first century has placed the governance of academia in a state of transformation. Increasing pressure for academia to direct the production, proliferation, and utilisation of academic knowledge towards the perceived needs and interests of government, industry and interests groups have manifested themselves in a diverse set of conditions for funding of education and research. For academics in general, and for early career researchers in particular, the result is an increasing dependence on external funding. In response, many universities have taken steps to introduce restrictions on form, content, and publication of research – as well as what types of employments are made available for researchers in the first place. This study explores the relationship between employment security and reliance on external funding in Finland and Sweden – two countries that have recently adopted tenure-track models. The exploration is based on material from the APIKS survey regarding duration of employment contracts, exposure to expectations, and sources of funding. Based on this analysis, we discuss whether tenure can effectively provide a healthy degree of independence and academic freedom in a funding landscape characterised by a high degree of competition for research funding. The results of the study provide insights into how the transformation of conditions for academic work interact with fundamental values of academia, and open avenues for further research into how academics deal with the pressures of modern career structures.

Abstract:
AbstractThe concept of surgical margins was born a long time ago but still lacks a univocal and sound understanding. The current biological rationale behind the recommendations on margins management relies on two pillars: (1) the observation that groups of cancer cells can leave the macroscopic tumor and disseminate throughout adjacent tissues with different degrees of aggressiveness; (2) the belief that removal of all (or most of) cancer cells can cure the patient. However, this background is undermined by some pieces of evidence. For instance, it has been proven that tissues surrounding cancer often bear precancerous traits, which means that cutting through non-cancerous tissues does not equate to cut through healthy tissues. The head and neck exquisitely poses a number of challenges in the achievement of negative margins, with special reference to anatomical complexity, high density in relevant structures, and unique histological heterogeneity of cancers. Currently, intraoperative margins evaluation relies on surgeons’ sight, palpation, ability to map tumor extension on imaging, and knowledge of anatomy, with some optical imaging technologies aiding the delineation of the mucosal margins of excision. Frozen sections are currently used to intraoperatively evaluate margins, yet with debate on whether and how this practice should be performed. Future perspectives on improvement of margins control are threefold: research is oriented towards refinements of understanding of cancers local progression, implementation of technologies to intraoperatively render tumor extension, and employment of optical imaging modalities capable of detecting foci of residual tumor in the surgical bed.

Abstract:
Abstract The chapter Disruption in the Information Industry: Precariousness and Professional ‘Decapitalisation’ focuses on the information industry and the dramatic changes it has experienced as a result of digitalisation and the continuous crises that have directly impacted not only the ways the profession is practised but also the conditions in which journalists work. This section analyses the effects of these global processes within the Spanish context, with the aim of contextualising the structural conditions upon which the information industry is based, including advertising investment, employment, business models, and corporate mergers. The last section delves into how the economic situation has directly influenced the structure of the journalistic profession and resulted in the “decapitalisation” of journalism’s watchdog role, with a marked increase in jobs directed towards corporate communication, compared to the dwindling state of conventional media newsrooms. The chapter also underscores how the current working conditions for journalists clash with the professional values that have traditionally characterised the field, particularly journalistic autonomy, which is increasingly constrained by commercial and political pressures, as supported by various studies. To further explore the state of the profession and the conditions under which journalism is practised, the final chapter includes testimony from 16 junior and senior Spanish professionals, participants in two focus groups held in 2024. This section brings together first-hand experiences and reflections, offering a detailed overview of the current professional context and the circumstances under which journalists work.

Abstract:
AbstractAccording to the received view of the development of particle physics, mathematics, and more specifically group theory, provided the key which, between the late 1950s and the early 1960s, allowed scientists to achieve both a deeper physical understanding and an empirically successful modeling of particle phenomena. Indeed, a posteriori it has even been suggested that just by looking at diagrams of observed particle properties (see Fig. 1) one could have recognized in them the structures of specific groups (see Fig. 2). However, a closer look at theoretical practices of the 1950s and early 1960s reveals a tension between the employment of advanced mathematical tools and the “modeling” of observation, if the term “model” is understood as a construction allowing for the fitting and predicting of phenomena. As we shall see, the most empirically successful schemes, such as the “Gell-Mann and Nishijima model” or the “eightfold way”, were mathematically very simple, made no use of group-theoretical notions and for quite a time resisted all attempts to transform them into more refined mathematical constructs. Indeed, the theorists who proposed them had little or no interest in abstract approaches to mathematical practice. On the other hand, there were a number of particle theorists who did care about and employ group-theoretical notions, yet not primarily as tools to fit phenomena, but rather as a guide to uncover the fundamental principles of particle interactions. Moreover, these theorists did not regard all groups as epistemically equivalent, and instead clearly preferred those transformations related to space-time invariances over all others. These authors also often made a distinction between purely descriptive “models” and the “theories” they were (unsuccessfully) trying to build and which in their opinion would provide a deeper understanding of nature. Nonetheless, they expected their “theories”, too, to be empirically successful in describing observation, and thus to also function as “models”. In this sense, like their less mathematically-inclined colleagues, they also saw no clear-cut distinction between “modeling” and “theorizing” particle phenomena. In my paper I will discuss the development of these theoretical practices between the 1950s and the early 1960s as examples of the complex relationship between mathematics and the conceptualization of physical phenomena, arguing that, at least in this case, no general statements are possible on the relationship of mathematics and models. At that time, very different mathematical practices coexisted and the epistemic attitudes of physicists towards theoretical constructs could depend both on the assumptions and goals of the individual authors and on the specific mathematical methods and concepts linked to the constructs.

Abstract:
Abstract The far-reaching changes witnessed in the way companies organize work right across the European Union have been prompted by the move away from a production-based economy towards an economy where the services sector rules, by technological progress, and by market globalization. These same changes have a crucial impact on the coHective organization of labour relations and on the legal mechanisms governing worker representation, action, and collective bargaining. New groups of workers have joined the labour market and there is now a need to examine employment and labour problems as a whole and not just from the traditional standpoint of the subordinated worker. These factors, together with the way the single market will work once the EMU is in place and the euro becomes the common currency, are creating new frameworks for collective representation. All in alt the social and cultural modifications that have been triggered by these changes require a dynamic response so that collective representation can be brought into line with this transformation, thereby avoiding any discrepancy between the current and future needs of work organization and the industrial model of labour relations on which the collective organization of work has been built.

Abstract:
This chapter examines the effects of bias in AI on individuals, businesses, and society, along with potential mitigation strategies. The pervasive adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) in various societal sectors raises a critical question: what is the impact of inherent biases in AI systems? It is vital to seek technical solutions to these biases and to comprehend the wider societal repercussions of AI bias to reduce its detrimental effects. AI bias can significantly and sometimes adversely affect individuals, businesses, and society. The influence of AI bias spans several domains, including employment, hiring, businesses, criminal justice system and society. AI-driven mechanisms could unintentionally discriminate against specific demographics based on race, gender, or economic status, potentially aggravating existing inequalities and curtailing opportunities for underprivileged groups. Moreover, AI bias can shape public perception and decision-making. Thus, it is clear that AI impacts us on three fronts: individually, commercially, and societally.

Abstract:
This chapter examines trust in the police and perceptions of police legitimacy among minority groups, focussing on those from migrant and ethnic minorities. These groups are disproportionately ensnared in the justice system in most ethnically diverse Western countries, and they are over-represented in their prison populations. The chapter offers an explanation for these patterns that focusses on the progressive social and economic marginalisation of migrants from visible minority groups over time, resulting from discriminatory treatment in systems of education, employment and justice. Migrants have generally arrived in their new countries with optimism and positive attitudes towards the police and other institutions of their chosen country. Over time and over generations, this positive outlook is overshadowed by negative experiences of the police, by falling trust in the police, and by reductions in levels of legitimacy conferred on the police. The chapter discusses ways of recovering relations between police and minority groups.

Abstract:
The promotion of women's empowerment is essential for the holistic development of society. Self-help groups (SHGs) are crucial in empowering women, especially those in rural and underprivileged regions, by providing financial inclusion and skill development training. The study seeks to assess the mechanism of SHGs in improving the livelihoods of tribal women in Uttar Pradesh. Additionally, it attempts to evaluate the impact of SHGs on their socio-economic empowerment and their perceptions of SHGs. For this purpose, the data was collected from tribal women in Varanasi and Sonbhadra using a structured questionnaire. The study used percentage analysis, one-sample t-test, paired t-test, and regression analysis to assess the objectives set forth based on a sample size of 263. The study's results indicate that the SHGs mechanism has a moderate to high level of effectiveness in enhancing the economic empowerment of tribal women in Uttar Pradesh. Since becoming members of SHGs, the beneficiaries have seen significant enhancements in their income, savings, and employment and moderate enhancement in expenditure patterns. SHG mechanisms are reliable indicators of socio economic empowerment, and women who are empowered tend to have a positive perception of SHGs. The study's findings suggest that continuous support and the expansion of SHG initiatives may significantly enhance the socio economic empowerment of tribal women.

This chapter addresses the growth of migration and the contribution of migrant labour to both western and developing economies. The ‘dark side’ refers to the exploitation and ill-treatment of employees, particularly migrant workers, across the world. The focus here is on legal migrant workers, but many of the scenarios covered also apply to marginalized workers, minority groups, and undocumented migrants. The chapter identifies the main types of migrants and their employment problems. The extent of worldwide migration is examined next, and the key differences between an expatriate's position and that of a migrant worker are identified. After this, the chapter explores the impact of different national regulations on migrant workers and the importance of temporary staffing agencies (TSAs), as well as the role and responsibility of multinationals. It concludes with calls for more monitoring of the activities of multinationals and a more humane approach by governments towards their migrant workers.

Abstract There is considerable research evidence indicating that rates of psychiatric disorders are higher in homeless individuals, although, in some cases, psychiatric illnesses may lead to homelessness. It is likely that in spite of high rates of illness, individuals who are homeless or are in insecure housing may be more reluctant to seek help. Thus, it is of paramount importance to enable homeless people with mental illness to access mental health services easily, which is a worldwide challenge. Homelessness and psychiatric disorders are both strongly affected by other social determinants and thus may feed into each other. A significant improvement in the health of these persons can be through outreach programmes leading to early detection of psychiatric disorders. In view of the great vulnerability to which the homeless are exposed, the special psychological treatments they may need are obvious, but interventions require joined up thinking between health, housing, employment, education, justice, and other ministries. Each nation may need to develop optimal models of social care and rehabilitation that rely on the particular research-driven needs of homeless people with mental illnesses. In order to improve the availability of services to the homeless, it is also important to consider and value their experiences and opinions. Many underprivileged groups such as refugees and migrants, adolescents, those with intellectual and developmental disabilities, LGBTIQ, and homeless individuals may need extra input. The well-recognized association between homelessness and mental illness needs to be addressed at multiple levels in any society.

Abstract:
This project aims to identify, document, interpret and disseminate current self-regulated community practices in social housing neighborhoods in the city of Vila Nova de Gaia, Portugal, in 2021. The main, specific case study is the neighborhood of Balteiro. We present methodologies and the first outcomes of the ethnographic work developed at Balteiro, namely an analysis of the origins, dynamics, needs and current challenges in face of post-pandemic scenarios in the present and future of two local initiatives: Associação Recreativa Clube Balteiro Jovem (ARCBJ) and (School Workshop of cartoning

Abstract:
The Employment Rights Bill (ERB) currently making its way through parliament is a big deal for low-paid workers, who stand to gain the most from its changes. But it’s also a big deal for the country, with the row between business groups and unions over its impacts being testament to that. This year’s Low Pay Britain report – the 15th in an annual series taking stock of low-paid work in the UK –takes on three important questions as the ERB heads towards becoming law. First, we look at the big picture: what does the evidence say about the ERB’s likely economic impacts? Second, with much of the d

Abstract:
The Covid-19 pandemic has had direct and indirect effects on religiously marginalised groups, exacerbating existing inequities and undermining the ambitions of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to reach (and include) those ‘furthest behind’. Religious inequalities intersect with other inequalities to compound vulnerabilities, particularly the convergence of low socioeconomic status, gender inequality, and location-specific discrimination and insecurity, to shape how people are experiencing the pandemic.

Abstract:
As countries across the globe pursue economic development, the improvement of individual and societal well-being has increasingly become an overarching goal. In the global South, in particular, high levels of poverty, inequality and deteriorating social fabrics remain significant challenges. Programmes and projects for addressing these challenges have had some, but limited, impact. This occasional paper analyses well-being in Gauteng province from a capability perspective, using a standard ‘capability approach’ consistent with Amartya Sen’s first conceptualisation, which was then operationalis

Abstract:
Cambodia, following more than two decades of impressive economic performance and development, is fast becoming one of Asia’s new tiger economies. Sustained robust GDP growth of over 7 percent has supported improvements in physical infrastructure (economic and social) and substantial poverty reduction. This economic improvement, mostly made possible by rapid manufacturing (garment industry), construction and tourism growth, is paving the way for rapid urbanisation. The pace of urbanisation combined with demographic change, improved access to education, and widespread internet use is playing a s

Abstract:
This brief sets out key considerations linked to the promotion of COVID-19 vaccine uptake among undocumented migrants residing in Rome, Italy. We focus on strategies to equitably distribute COVID-19 vaccines. Evidence from Italy is applicable to other contexts where vaccine administration is tied to “vaccine passports” or “immunity passes”. Undocumented migrants have been considered as some of the “hardest to reach” groups to engage in COVID-19 vaccination outreach. This brief uses the term undocumented migrant or migrant for brevity, but we refer to people living without formal Italian citize

Abstract:
The Panamanian economy performed spectacularly starting in 1989, growing at an average real rate of 6% per year for thirty years. It was the highest registered in the Latin American Region and one of the highest globally. In addition, important achievements were obtained that were not achieved in other countries inside and outside the region. The middle class expanded and strengthened. The general poverty level fell from 37.9% in 2000 to 21.5% in 2019, and the extreme poverty level from 21.9% to 10.0%, mainly due to transfers from low-income households. Income inequalities improved by reducing

Abstract:
Migrant integration allows migrants to contribute to the economic, social, cultural and political life of the country they migrate to; it is also important for social cohesion and inclusive growth. By examining how migrants fare relative to the majority population in key life domains, this report seeks to illustrate the challenges, successes and opportunities for migrant integration in Ireland today. Monitoring integration can provide crucial information for policy and public conversations around migration, and the profile of migrants in Ireland. Ireland’s migration context has changed conside

Abstract:
The survey presented in this report reveals that Nordic citizens are concerned about climate change. Many people are willing to increase efforts to fight climate change, even if this entails a personal contribution in terms of higher taxes or behavioural change. The survey shows that different social groups perceive the impacts of climate change and climate mitigation policies in different ways. In general, attitudes towards climate policies and perceptions regarding their fairness are conditioned by socio-demographic factors such as gender, age, employment status, type of housing and transpor

Abstract:
We believe the climate crisis will be resolved in cities. Today, while cities occupy only 2% of the Earth's surface, 57% of the world's population lives in cities, and by 2050, it will jump to 68% (UN, 2018). Currently, cities consume over 75% of natural resources, accumulate 50% of the global waste and emit up to 80% of greenhouse gases (Ellen MacArthur Foundation, 2017). Cities generate 70% of the global gross domestic product and are significant drivers of economic growth (UN-Habitat III, 2016). At the same time, cities sit on the frontline of natural disasters such as floods, storms and dr

Abstract:
Civic engagement is “how citizens participate in the life of a community to improve conditions for others or to help shape the community’s future” (Adler and Goggin 2005, p. 236). In Cambodia, civic engagement has been promoted by civil society organisations (CSOs) since 1993. The organisations covered by the abbreviation “CSO” are many in Cambodia, but they consist of, and are not limited to, non-governmental organisations (NGOs), youth associations, community-based organisations (CBOs), self-help groups and small clubs.
