Abstract:
Wildlife crime presents a growing threat to the integrity of ecological communities. While campaigns have raised consumer awareness, little is known about the socio-demographic profile of wildlife offenders, or how to intervene. Using data from China Judgements Online (2014–2018), we documented 4,735 cases, involving 7,244 offenders who smuggled, hunted, transported, sold and/or purchased protected species in contravention of China’s Criminal Law. Offenders were predominantly men (93.0% of 7,143 offenders), aged 30–44 (43.9% of 4,699), agricultural workers (48.4% of 3,960), with less schooling (78.6% of 4,699 < senior secondary school). Socio-economic profiles related to crime seriousness, the type of illegal activity, motivation and taxon involved. These generalizations reveal scope to tailor specific intervention and mitigation approaches to offender profiles, through public information campaigns, proactive incentives opposed by punitive disincentives, and provision of alternative incomes.

Abstract:
The MIRAB model developed by Bertram and Watters, based on remittances and aid, has dominated the small island economy literature for two decades. Recently, two challenges have surfaced: the PROFIT formulation emphasizing domestic policy flexibility - a socalled ‘resourcefulness of jurisdiction’ - and a dynamic private sector (Baldacchino, 2006); and the SITE model, stressing the role of tourism (McElroy, 2006). To date, there has been no comparative assessment of these different island models. This article addresses this gap. Its point of departure is to consider SITE islands as a subspecies of the PROFIT cluster. It constructs comprehensive profiles across 27 socio-economic and demographic variables for two island sub-groups with populations of less than three million: 23 MIRAB and 35 PROFIT-SITE. Results indicate PROFIT-SITE islands are much more affluent, socially advanced and demographically mature than their MIRAB counterparts.

Abstract:
India has several socially disadvantaged communities and Scheduled Tribes are the most deprived ones. In Census 2011 the Government of India identified 10,42,81,034 citizens as Scheduled Tribes constituting 8.6% of the total population of the India (As per 2001 Census, it was 8.2% of the total population of India). In India, each state is practically equivalent to a country with its own specific socio-economic level, different ethnic groups, food habits, health infrastructures and communication facilities. Kodagu is one such district located on the eastern slopes of the Western Ghats in Karnataka and is home to many communities with diverse ethnic origins, and tribes such as the Yeravas, Kurubas and Kudiyas, who are of hunter-gatherers of forest origin. The present study focuses on the socio demographic and economic conditions of the Yerava, Jenu Kuruba and Malekudiya tribes. There have been changes especially in the social and economic life of these tribal people though, differences were found in their social, demographic and economic conditions.

Abstract:
The work-family interface is a pivotal topic in contemporary discourse on women and gender dynamics, representing the evolution and development of gender roles in sync with modern advancements and evolving socio-economic paradigms. This study ventures into the nuanced complexities of the work-family interface among Muslim women in India, illuminating a previously uncharted realm. Employing a survey-based methodology, this research aims to unravel the intricate web of motivating factors propelling these women into the workforce, resulting in a delicate balancing act encompassing financial, social, and personal aspirations. Furthermore, it unveils a spectrum of challenges spanning traditional, cultural, political, social, and religious dimensions, which hinder their pursuit of work and endeavor from confining them within traditional family roles. By providing invaluable insights into the lived experiences of Indian Muslim women, this paper establishes itself as a foundational resource for comprehending their distinctive work-family dynamics, ultimately offering guidance for enhancing their socio-economic well-being and empowerment.

Abstract:
The study analysed the impact of Tabuk’s transition to cityhood on various aspects of development, including economic, socio-cultural, political, and environmental dimensions. It sought to understand the demographic profile of respondents, encompassing age, gender, civil status, educational attainment, and employment status. It examined the city government’s demographic profile, including population, land area, income, and internal revenue allocation. The study evaluated the city government’s delivery of services and facilities and assessed the level of impact of Tabuk’s cityhood on economic, social, cultural, political, and environmental development. The research employed percentage analysis for respondents’ demographic profiles, documentary analysis for the city government’s profile, mean to gauge service and facility delivery, and regression to determine the cityhood’s impact on economic, social, cultural, political, and environmental development. Data collection primarily relied on questionnaires. Diverse groups, including business, agriculture, healthcare, education, professionals, transportation sectors, and community groups, participated in the survey. Key findings revealed that a significant proportion of respondents were under 24 years old, with the majority being female, married, and holding at least a bachelor’s degree. A substantial portion of degree holders reported unemployment. The Internal Revenue Allotment of Tabuk City exhibited substantial growth, and local income sustained growth. Population increased, and land area expanded. The study affirmed the city government’s effective provision of services and facilities, fostering socio-economic, political, cultural, and environmental development. Respondents’ demographic profiles, particularly age and employment status, significantly influenced service delivery. Moreover, service and facility delivery significantly predicted the city’s impact, particularly in infrastructure, tourism, low-cost housing, tourism promotion, and support for education, police, and fire services. Based on these findings, recommendations were made, such as crafting comprehensive communication plans, developing public-private partnerships, investing in green initiatives, promoting waste segregation, supporting entrepreneurship, initiating reforestation projects, creating a cemetery office, and establishing a gender and development office to enhance gender equality and inclusion. Keywords: Tabuk cityhood, human development, service delivery, demographic profile, impact assessment

Abstract:
Background: Scheduled tribes live in unique physical, socio-economic and cultural environment isolated from general population. The tribal population is at a higher risk of under-nutrition and Malaria, because of the socio-cultural, socio-economic and environmental factors influencing health seeking behaviour. We made an attempt to study the socio demographic economic variables in the tribal communities of East Godavari district.Methods: A pre-tested questionnaire containing information on household socio-economic and demographic particulars like type of family, religion, caste, age, gender, income, literacy and occupation, was administered by paying house to house visits. All the data were entered into excel sheets and analyzed by using SPSS software 17.Results: 59.25% were literates. 56.25% belongs to monthly income less than 773 rupees i.e. class-5, 74.29% are living in nuclear families. 48.55% belongs to Konda Reddy community. 56.69% have access to mineral water supply. 89.78 – 98.94% does not have toilets in their houses. 43.39% of the respondents have cattle sheds near to their houses.Conclusions: More than half of the tribal’s needs to improve their socio-demographic and socio-economic conditions. Still it needs construction of community toilets or individual toilets in tribal areas.

Full text
Abstract:
Since the 1960s Irish fertility has undergone dramatic change. While the broad outlines of both the nature and the origins of such change are, by now, well enough known and understood, little attention has been paid to the way in which changes in age specific fertility have been manifested regionally. This paper uses cluster analysis to group counties and county boroughs/cities according to their age-specific profiles of fertility at each full census year between 1961 and 2002 and then ANOVA to identify meaningful statistical relationships between cluster membership in each year and variables descriptive of the demographic and socio-economic context. By 1981 younger fertility profiles had spread from south eastern areas to almost all regions, but during the 1980s older fertility profiles became increasingly characteristic throughout western and northern districts. Despite the on-going, nation-wide ageing of fertility profiles since 1991, this basic regional distinction has remained largely intact. Prior to 1981 changing marriage patterns and family planning among older women seem to have underpinned profile change. Thereafter, however, profile change patterns seem to have socio-economic and perhaps cultural contextual origins.

Abstract:
AbstractDespite international growth of, and policy interest in, divorce and separation since the 1970s, there is still surprisingly little known about non-residential fatherhood. This paper presents a ‘father-centric’ analysis and provides one of the first profiles of non-residential fatherhood in early millennium UK. Using data from Understanding Society Wave 1, a nationally representative survey of over 30,000 households in the UK, we found 1,070 men self-identifying as having a non-resident child under 16 years old (https://www.understandingsociety.ac.uk). We estimate a prevalence of 5 per cent of British men having a non-resident dependent child. Through latent class analysis, four distinct groups of non-resident fathers are identified: ‘Engaged’ fathers, ‘Less Engaged’ fathers, ‘Disengaged’ fathers and ‘Distance’ fathers. Our analysis finds that non-resident fathers form a heterogeneous group in terms of their socio-demographic profile and family behaviour. It is recommended that legislation and policy concerning fathers in post-separation families are sensitive to variation as well as commonality in socio-economic conditions and family lives and situations.

Zanamwe, Lazarus. "Population change and socio-economic development in Zimbabwe." Thesis, University of Leeds, 1989. http://etheses.whiterose.ac.uk/457/.

Abstract:
It is a commonly held theory that population is related to levels of social and economic development within a given country or society. The work of Becker in the early 1960s gave much impetus to studies of the relationship between fertility, mortality and migration, on the one hand and their determinants, on the other. The determinants were seen as the social, economic, political and cultural settings of the countries or socities under study. The thesis attempts to apply this theory in relation to the demographic development of Zimbabwe. The thesis postulates that socio-economic differentials within Zimbabwe are sufficiently pronounced as to begin to affect the demographic structure of the country. It is with this in mind that three objectives are set for the thesis: a) the exploration of the demographic structure of the population of Zimbabwe, as a means of furthering the understanding of the nature of the demographic development of the country; b) the development and utilization of data estimation techniques as a means of overcoming the deficiencies in the data collected from official sources; and, c) the investigation of the link between population change, on the one hand, with social and economic development on the other. The hypothesis proceeds through the examination of such social and economic variables as income, education, health and other social indicators in relation to fertility, migration and mortality. Due to the inadequacy of data on the demographic variables, the thesis estimates such data using the recognized relationships among the demographic variables. The estimated demographic measures are subjected to correlation and regression analysis after the development structure of the country has been explored through factor and cluster analysis. Three geographical scales are used in the analyses viz. the province, the district and the local authority area. Use of the three geographical scales exposes the dangers of extrapolating and generalizing national patterns of demographic, social and economic development to the levels of the district and the local authority, as well as exposing different features of the development profile of the country of Zimbabwe. The thesis concludes that there is a differentiation in the demographic profile of the various geographical regions of the country, based on inequitable distribution of resources in the past when the country was under white settler colonial rule. The advent of independence and the introduction of policies designed to reduce such inequalities had not had time to work by the time the 1982 Census, from whose data the study is based, was taken. The thesis therefore recommends that further censuses are required if the effect of such policies are to be measured. It further recommends the use of cross-temporal instead of the cross-sectional data which was applied in this study.

Ter o conhecimento sobre o perfil dos habitantes de uma cidade ou país tem grande valor para administrações públicas e empresas. Conhecer o perfil de uma população pode auxiliar o trabalho de planejadores urbanos, administradores de transporte público, serviços governamentais ou empresas de diferentes maneiras como, por exemplo, decidir onde é interessante instalar uma nova loja ou personalizar anúncios para um determinado público. A forma mais comum utilizada na análise de informações demográficas de uma população é através da segmentação da mesma em perfis sócio-demográficos, como idade, ocupação, estado civil ou renda mensal. Atualmente, para que essas informações sejam descobertas e analisadas, os dados são coletados através de entrevistas realizadas de casa em casa, periodicamente, em diversos países. No entanto, este tipo de abordagem possui algumas desvantagens: 1) os dados não são atualizados e precisos, pois são coletados em um intervalo de 5 - 10 anos; 2) a coleta é muito custosa e cobre apenas uma parcela da população por um curto período de tempo, apesar de ser estatisticamente significante; 3) não caracteriza as atividades completas do indivíduo, apenas o período de 1 dia de atividades, fornecidas através da entrevista realizada. Atualmente, é possível inferir muito conhecimento a partir do comportamento das pessoas analisando seu movimento do dia-a-dia, uma vez que grandes quantidades de dados de movimento estão disponíveis como: dados de telefone celular, redes sociais, dados de GPS, etc. Nesta dissertação, é proposto um método para a extração de perfis sócio-demográficos a partir de trajetórias de objetos móveis, e apresenta as seguintes contribuições: (i) proposta de um modelo de perfil geral para representar o perfil sócio-demográfico de pessoas, como trabalhador, estudante, desempregado, etc; (ii) proposta de um modelo para representar o histórico de movimentação diária dos indivíduos; (iii) proposta de funções de similaridade para fazer o casamento entre histórico e modelo de perfil e; (iv) um algoritmo chamado T-Profiles que realiza a comparação entre modelo de perfil e modelo de histórico, com o intuito de inferir o perfil sócio-demográfico de um objeto móvel a partir de sua trajetória. O algoritmo T-Profiles é validado utilizando dados reais de trajetórias, obtendo em torno de 90% de precisão.

Abstract : The knowledge about people living in a city or country has great value for the public administration as well as for enterprises. To know the population profile may help the job of smart city planners, public transportation administrators, government services or companies in many different ways, such as to decide if and where to install a new store or to personalize an advertisement, for example. The usual approach for population demographic analysis is to segment the population in socio-demographic profiles, such as age, occupation, marital status or income. Most attempts to discover and measure the population profiles is through human surveys, and the most well-known example is the socio-demographic census with diary activities, done periodically in many countries. However, the main drawbacks of the census data is that they: 1) are not up to date since they are usually collected every 5 - 10 years; 2) are expensive to collect, and cover only a small - although statistically significant - part of the population for a short period of time; 3) do not collect the actual movement of the individuals, but only the activity performed during one day and which is mentioned by the user during the interview. We believe that nowadays we can infer much knowledge and the real behavior about people from their every day movement. In this thesis we propose a method to extract socio-demographic profiles from trajectories of moving objects, and make the following contributions: (i) we propose a general profile model to represent socio-demographic profiles of people such as worker, student, unemployed, etc; (ii) we propose a moving object history model to represent the daily movement of the object, and (iii) we propose similarity functions and an algorithm called T-Profiles for matching the profile model and the history model in order to infer the socio-demographic profile of a moving object from his/her trajectories. We validate T-Profiles with real trajectory data obtaining about 90% of precision.

Abstract:
This research compared the expenditure patterns, profiles, and trip characteristics of volunteer and leisure tourists in New Orleans. Survey research methods were used to obtain a sample of voluntourists that was compared to a leisure tourist sample obtained from secondary data. Visitors’ expenditures across six types of spending, demographics, and travel information were collected. Data analysis included eight t-tests that revealed that voluntourists’ spending was lower in five out of six categories, total daily expenditures, and total trip spending. Voluntourists spent more on local transportation but preferred cheaper accommodations and dining, seldom gambled, shopped little at the destination, and rarely visited tourist attractions. Frequency analysis used to profile tourists discovered that voluntourists traveled greater distances to the destination than leisure tourists and came from northern states. While most leisure tourists were aged between 35-64 years, married, and neither students nor retired, most voluntourists were younger, single, and still in college.

Mestrado em Finanças
Na literatura financeira, existem vários estudos com o objetivo de entender melhor como determinar as diferenças individuais nas atitudes perante o risco. Estas diferenças entre os indivíduos prendem-se à maneira como eles se comportam perante situações que involvam risco, nas quais a implementação de uma ação carrega um risco. Nos dias actuais é importante perceber quais são os factores que influenciam o comportamento individual de risco, isto é quais as variáveis socio-demográficas que levam a diferentes perfis de risco. No entanto, os diversos autores tem diferentes opiniões sobre este tema, existindo várias escalas que medem o nível de risco de diferentes formas, consequentemente alcançando diferentes conclusões. Usando uma amostra de estudantes do ISEG de diferentes programas, os dados foram recolhidos com base num questionário distribuido online. De forma a aceder à relação entre as diferentes variáveis sócio-demográficas, as atitudes de risco foram medidas usando duas escalas anteriormente bem estabelecidas, que avaliam em diferentes situações as atitudes e comportamentos individuais de risco. Os resultados mostram que algumas variáveis sócio-demográficas têm influência no perfil de risco dos investidores (por exemplo o sexo), enquanto outras aparentam não ter qualquer impacto. Estas descobertas podem vir a ser importantes no futuro para as empresas ter um melhor conhecimento das necessidades dos seus investidores.
In the financial literature, there are several studies with the goal to understand better how to assess individual differences in attitude towards risk. These differences among individuals rely on the way they behave in risky situations, in which the implementation of an action carries a risk. Nowadays it is important to understand which factors influence an individual's risk behavior, which sociodemographic features lead to different profiles. However, authors have different opinions on this matter and there are several scales that measure risk in different ways, consequently achieving different conclusions. Using a sample of ISEG students of different degrees and programs, data was collected based on a questionnaire distributed online. To assess the relationship between the different socio-demographic variables, risk attitudes were measured using two wellestablished existing scales which evaluate in different situations an individual's risk attitudes and behaviors. The results show that some socio-demographic variables have influence in the risk profile of the investors (e.g. gender), while other do not seem to have impact. These findings might be important in the future for companies to better understand their investors' needs.

Abstract:
The outstanding characteristics of the population geography of the Sudan are seen in its vastness of the area, its low population density, its high population fertility, decreasing mortality rates and uneven distribution of developmental projects among its regions. All these have important effects upon the economic and de mographic characteristics of its population. They also underline the uneven distribution of the country's population, as a result of which large-scale migration movements occur. Three types of population movements in the Sudan are discussed; inter-provincial movements, rural-urban migration and seasonal migration for cotton picking in the Gezira scheme. In the discussion of the first type, the analysis covers issues related to the general levels of movements amongst the 18 provinces of the country, rates of in- and out-migration in each province and their net migration balances. Also, it discusses the spatial structure of the movement, and some gaining and losing provinces are singled out. The impacts of the movements and their selective nature are also revealed. Rural-urban migration to the capital city of Khartoum is studied using the 1983 census data, other published data and the author's 1988/89 survey of migrant households in the city. The scale of the migration and the characteristics of the migrants are analyzed. Additionally, the structure of the migrant households, literacy, occupation contrasts and links with the village are investigated. The reasons behind the migration decision and the reward of the rural-urban migration are also shown. Seasonal migration is discussed to disclose the nature of the movement and its patterns which are associated with the cotton picking operation in the Gezira scheme. The types of labour involved and labour market conditions are also investigated. The findings verified the seasonality of the movement to the scheme and the consistent relationship between migrants and tenants in the scheme.

Abstract:
AbstractThe increasing use of information and communications technologies (ICT) in education has raised concerns about exacerbating existing educational inequalities, particularly for students who lack interest or confidence in using digital devices. Drawing from data of the Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA), this chapter documents the extent to which school-aged children in Europe are digitally disengaged and/or lack digital confidence. We also analyse the socio-economic and demographic characteristics that describe both profiles. By shedding light on these challenges, this research can inform policies and interventions aimed to ensure equitable access and success in digital learning environments.

Abstract:
AbstractIn the past decade, Southeast Asia’s economic and geopolitical profile in the world has risen dramatically. It is one of the fastest growing markets and least well-known regions in the world. Countries in this region are important because they are large in aggregate, strategically located, exceptionally diverse, and intellectually interesting. This book on Demographic and Family Changes in Southeast Asia (SEA) presents the trends and patterns of family changes from all eleven countries in the region for the past 50 years (till 2015). It collects indicators on marriage, fertility, and household structures, and child and youth well-being based on data that are dispersed in many different sources and compiles them in one single document making it easier for researchers, practitioners, and policy-makers who are interested in this diverse and rapidly growing region to refer to. The report is meant to be a resource book to provide a snapshot of changes in the last half a century in key demographic, socio-economic characteristics, and family structure in the region to facilitate an understanding of the transitions that have undergone.

Abstract:
AbstractToday, many cities are promoting sustainable mobility. Their policies have already reduced the car’s place, developed pedestrian and bicycle facilities, or renewed public transport. This raises the question of the effects of these policies on the conditions of access to everyday resources. Are the facilities for sustainable mobility configured in such a way as to enable the population’s needs to be met? Globally or selectively? Do active modes (walking and cycling) offer a credible alternative to the car in order to effectively provide the resources necessary for daily life throughout the urban agglomeration?To answer these questions, this chapter presents a geographical analysis approach based on the concept of spatial ergonomics. The application to 12 test areas, using a geographic information system, has revealed cleavage situations within the Eurométropole de Strasbourg, to study finely differentiated situations and to put them in perspective with socio-demographic profiles to analyze socio-spatial disparities.The various levels of information shed light on leeway available to inhabitants, wherever they are located, to change their mode of travel. The method makes it possible to produce territorial diagnoses and to help local authorities to promote effective sustainable development policies.

Abstract:
This article aims to realize a comparative analysis of the potential demographic dividend and the economic life cycle profiles for several European countries. The demographic dividend is a concept that denotes the positive demographic impact on economic development resulting from the changes in population age structure. Countries where the working-age population predominates have the opportunity to accelerate economic development, thus obtaining the demographic dividend. In estimating the potential demographic dividend, the NTA methodology found its applicability through the economic support ratio indicator, a composite indicator that includes the characteristics of the population structure by age group, and also the production and consumption profiles for each of the age groups. The difference between consumption and income constitutes, the deficit or surplus of the economic life cycle. The comparative analysis of the consumption and income profiles, the surplus and deficits of the economic life cycle, the economic support ratio indicator, and the demographic dividends in the selected countries were carried out. The research results show that, although some countries register a population structure beneficial to economic development, the profiles of the economic life cycle are heterogeneous, reflecting the different situations in the labor market and individual productive behavior. Identifying the drivers needed to improve life cycle surplus would provide the necessary support for identifying country-specific methods for achieving the demographic dividend. The article was elaborated within the State Program Project (2020-2023) 20.80009.0807.21 „Migration, demographic changes, and situation stabilization policies”.

Abstract:
Entrepreneurship, which is one of the most important elements of the production-supply dimension of the economy, is also the main determinants of economic growth, including economic growth in the context of positive externalities emerging from the information age. It is clear that the development is linked to industrialization, which is related to spirit of innovative thinking. Therefore, undeveloped must be considered in concert with the lack of innovative thinking. According to Schumpeter, who defines entrepreneurship in such an understanding as "the replacement of the present and the future of Pareto Optimum with tomorrow's new and different things," this factor also encompasses innovation. Therefore, factors such as the characteristics of the entrepreneur, the risk perception profile and the socio-economic, socio-cultural and demographic structure of the population in which it is located can have significant effects on the development and development of entrepreneurship. In this study, it is aimed to investigate what factors are more effective on the perception of entrepreneurship by using the statistical methods on Erzincan University Students, taking into consideration that today's students will be the future production factor (labor or enterprise). Another important goal of the paper is to determine whether the entrepreneurship factor, which has a significant role in the development of the country and especially in urban development, is based on scientific or traditional elements. It can be considered that the existence and sustainability of the enterprise spirit will be tested with the awareness of the opportunities and opportunities for incentives to act rationally.

Abstract:
Poverty, as a multispectral phenomenon caused by a serious material deprivation of the population, is currently becoming one of the most observed socio-economic phenomena, the extent and severity of the social consequences of which are constantly increasing. The paper focuses on the evaluation of selected indicators for measuring poverty in the districts of the region with the highest level of its risk from the perspective of relevant experts to the identifying of the extent, level, development and depth of poverty at two times horizons in 2015 and 2019. The methodology of the pilot case study is based on to implement a multi-criteria assessment of the poverty rate in a statistically unreported territorial unit (district) using 19 objective indicators in three directionally different domains: socio-demographic profile (7 indicators), economic performance (6) and infrastructure (6). Experts from various scientific fields (demogeography, regional development, spatial planning, tourism, environmental studies, economics, management and marketing) evaluated each indicator in the range of 0 - 10 points according to the relationship to poverty. This process is basically known in the literature as the Delphic method. To evaluate poverty, the method of quantitative pairwise comparison in the literature, referred to as the Saaty method, was used. The results of the case study indicate that in the districts in the Banská Bystrica Region, the at-risk-of-poverty rate is decreasing, and regional disparities are diminishing.

Additionally, the main novelty of this study is the evaluation of the destination’s accessibility concerning people with special needs as a determinant of tourist expenses. Microdata was collected by a survey addressed to tourists (national and international) who visited the city of Porto. Tobit regressions were applied to explain the main tourist expenses. The results show the perception of the level of accessibility presents a relevant result in the various models. With this paper, we intend to contribute to the literature and support the different stakeholders in defining tourist attraction and loyalty strategies.

Abstract:
Communities and networks constitute complex socio-cultural ecosystems wherein participatory design and art practices assume a central role in fostering collaborative creativity and addressing collective challenges. The infusion of participatory design into these networks serves as a catalyst for social innovation, facilitating the active engagement of community members in co-creating their shared environments. Social design emerges as a strong tool, transcending disciplinary boundaries to harness the capacities of art and design in responding to intricate societal issues. This interplay between participatory design and art practices becomes a dynamic mechanism instigating positive transformations within communities, fostering diverse perspectives and inclusive solutions. University-level students can play a crucial role in the convergence of art and design activism, enhancing the impact of interventions with a socio-political dimension. As active participants in civic engagement through art and design, these students become vital advocates for social justice, contributing substantively to community empowerment and proactive determination of future trajectories. The genesis of the "O Bairro está IN(clusivo)" [The Neighborhood is IN(clusive)] project exemplifies this synergy. Promoted by ESAD — College of Art and Design and rooted in the principles of dream, imagination, fabulation, and self-build, the project endeavors to contribute to societal betterment through design and architecture, emphasizing positive transformation of Cruz de Pau's (social housing community in Matosinhos, Portugal) urban space through active community participation. Financed under the “Healthy Neighborhoods Program”, a governmental initiative to enhance the quality of life in vulnerable territories, the project focuses on Cruz de Pau—a neighborhood with diverse demographic profiles and varying economic and social needs. The project engages in workshops and participatory activities involving three generations —seniors, young people, and adolescents —, aiming to improve the surrounding space and leverage local knowledge. Through art and creativity, the project activates social and urban "regeneration," fostering participation and identification between inhabitants and their surroundings, while showcasing the effective transformative power of a united community.

Valente Rosa, Maria João. Demographic ageing: the rigidity of conventional metrics and the need for their revision. IPR-NOVA, January 2022. http://dx.doi.org/10.23906/wp63/2022.

Full text
Abstract:
This article aims to discuss the scope and value of the conventional metrics used to assess and compare levels of ageing between different populations. The age brackets for classifying if the population is ageing or aged are typically based on chronological age and are very close to the stages of the economic tripartite life cycle: the school/education phase; the labour market participation phase; the retirement phase. Those conventional metrics produce distortions in capturing the levels of demographic ageing. If the change in the age structure is rooted in social development, not in a social crisis, having more people in older ages should be related to that. Living longer, on average, does not only mean living more years but also a change in people's social profile, which the usual metrics for measuring ageing do not capture. Because of the central place that demographic ageing occupies in the framework of social, political and scientific reflection on the present and future of societies, Demographic Science should contribute with new metrics reflecting the real social improvements in populations age structures. This reflection supports the need to undertake a critical analysis of the way demographic ageing has usually been presented; stresses the need to advance ageing metrics that match societies' development by considering the life expectancy; and presents a new indicator for measurement demographic ageing that compares what we observe with what we can expect from the age structure at any given mortality level.

Full text
Abstract:
SEWA launched the Zamini Adhikar Abhiyaan (ZAA) for the economic empowerment of women workers in informal settlements through awareness generation, infrastructure provisioning, land tenure security, and provisioning for housing finance. The pilot project was implemented in six settlements in Delhi and Patna with varying jurisdictional, demographic, and socio-economic contexts. The three-year period was marked by disruptions such as the COVID-19 pandemic, lockdowns, floods, and other socio-political disturbances. Consequently, SEWA adapted its strategies to overcome these challenges. This study examines SEWA’s methodology and strategies using a mixed methods approach, including a review of SEWA literature and field engagement through interviews and focus group discussions with SEWA staff, agewans, elected representatives, and community members. The study analyses the pilot project across, first, capacity building process, community mobilization and stakeholder participation; second, quality of infrastructure services, tenure, and housing finance as perceived by residents; and third, challenges, evolution and readjustment of strategies. Drawing lessons from these, the learning study suggests a way forward for the future expansion of the Zamini Adhikar Abhiyaan programme

Full text
Abstract:
Willingness to reduce meat and dairy consumption across the population is relatively low (12.8%-25.5%), albeit increasing. While women and higher socio-economic groups tend to show greater awareness of an environmental rationale and subsequent willingness for change, this difference does not emerge strongly in studies reporting behavioural outcomes. A broad set of search terms was used to identify literature in this area, but focused on: Evidence of the potential for behaviour change in response to sustainability, environmental and climate change agendas. The reduction of meat or dairy consumption, rather than stopping altogether. Motives and barriers to reduction rather than stopping could differ considerably. Research was also specifically searched to explore the impact of socio-demographic characteristics on willingness to reduce meat and dairy consumption. This study was used to inform the primary research on Psychologies of Food Choice: Public views and experiences around meat and dairy consumption.

Abstract:
This paper identifies subjective well-being trajectories through happiness measures as influenced by time, socio-economic, demographic and behavioural determinants. Hierarchical age-period-cohort models are applied to European Social Survey (2002–2016) data on the population aged 30 and older in 10 countries. A U-shaped relationship between age and happiness is found for some countries, but a rather flat pattern and considerable diversity beyond age 80 are detected for other countries. Lower happiness levels are found for baby boomers (1945–1964) than for preboomers and post-boomers, and also for late boomers (1955–1964) than for early boomers (1945–1954). Women, highly educated and native people are shown to have higher happiness levels than men, less educated and non-native people, respectively. Moreover, a positive assessment of income, having a partner, and being a parent, in good health, employed and socially active are all found to have a positive impact on happiness levels. We find evidence of gaps in happiness levels due to differences in socio-economic characteristics over the life course in some, but not in all of the countries analysed.
