Resumen
Despite being a topic of concern globally, child prostitution is understood neither comprehensively nor critically. In particular, there have been few attempts to develop any depth of understanding of child prostitution in sub-Saharan Africa. Current understandings are largely based on adult perspectives while children and young people’s own experiences of involvement have been marginalized. The study draws on theoretical approaches of children’s rights, radical and liberal feminism, structure and agency, and the Capability Approach, to examine decisions made by children within particular econ

Government and nongovernmental interventions over the years saw massive reductions in HIV prevalence rates over the years. This reduction in HIV prevalence rates led to great praises by the international community and a call for other countries to model Uganda’s approach to battling the epidemic. In the la

Resumen
Despite an increasing recognition of the need for an integrative approach to sustainable development, there remains a tendency for this to be anthropocentric. Attempts to govern sustainability are invariably focused on the pre-eminence of the human perspective and social systems in the pursuit of human goals. This often means either excluding or attempting to control the external environment rather than understanding and responding to it.

Despite the recognition of fluvial geomorphology as an important scientific input to the management of river catchments, limited knowledge exchange has occurred between scientific researchers and river management stakeholders. An example of this issue can be found within the limited uptake of numerical models of sediment dynamics by river management stakeholders. The uptake of these models is important as they have the potential to demonstrate how, at the catchment-scale, the impacts of management strategies of land-use change affect sediment dynamics and resulting channel quality.

Transferring independently to and from their wheelchair is an essential routine task for many wheelchair users but it can be physically demanding and can lead to falls and upper limb injuries that reduce the person’s independence.

To ensure that users’ needs are addressed by ATs, the active involvement of wheelchair users in the process of design and development is critical.
