Abstract:
‘State feminism’ is a concept that refers to the integration of feminists and feminist issues into the state apparatus. Yet, while the feminist movement must regularly contend with an antifeminist counter-movement, it is worth considering whether a ‘state antifeminism’ is also present or emerging, and how this presence or emergence is affecting efforts by feminist organizations to address the needs of women and advance women's equality. With this objective in mind, this article focuses chiefly on two Western countries and is based on more than twenty semi-structured interviews with feminists in Belgium and Quebec, Canada.

Abstract:
AbstractIn this article I discuss some of the connections between gender, gender mainstreaming and feminist theory. As a global initiative, gender mainstreaming is now well established; but the role of feminism and feminists in achieving this success is questionable. Some, including Harvard Law Professor Janet Halley claim that feminists, particularly in the realm of governance feminism, have been extremely successful. Yet despite this success Halley invites us to ‘take a break from feminism’. I consider this political and intellectual invitation in this article in order to shed some light on the relationship between gender mainstreaming and feminism but also to probe what Robyn Wiegman refers to as a ‘critical incomprehension’ around feminism. My discussion includes a brief analysis of the imagery used in documentation relating to the United Kingdom's Gender Equality Duty Legislation; the latter a contemporary example of a legislative attempt to properly mainstream gender. In conclusion I return to the Halley's invitation to ‘take a break from feminism’ and introduce, by way of contrast, Angela McRobbie's recent discussion of post-feminism ultimately suggesting that we might see Halley's call, as well as the popularity (and ‘failures’) of gender mainstreaming as examples of post-feminist practice. Image 1.Pop-art images advertising the ‘Gender Agenda’ on the Internet {http://www.gender-agenda.co.uk/} which is part of the UK's legislation on gender equality produced by the UK's Equality and Human Rights Commission (formerly the Equal Opportunities Commission).If you look around the United States, Canada, the European Union, the human rights establishment, even the World Bank, you see plenty of places where feminism, far from operating underground, is running things.1Any force as powerful as feminism must find itself occasionally looking down at its own bloody hands.2

Abstract:
Abstract Across politics and public discourse, feminism is experiencing a global renaissance. Yet feminist academic work is divided over the burgeoning use of the term, particularly in reference to economic and international development policy. For some, feminism has been co-opted for neoliberal economic ends; for others, it remains a critical force across the globe. This article explores the nascent feminist foreign policies of Sweden and Canada. Employing a discourse analysis of both states’ policy documents, it asks what the term “feminist” meant in preliminary attempts at constructing a feminist foreign policy. It argues that although both use the term “feminist,” they understand the term very differently, with Sweden centering it in domestic and international commitments to change, while Canada places greater emphasis on the private sector. This suggests that this policy agenda is still developing its central concepts, and is thus ripe for intervention on the part of policymakers and civil society organizations.

Abstract:
This special issue presents a series of papers by scholars who participated in a workshop entitled ‘Men's Groups: Challenging Feminism’, which was held at the University of British Columbia (UBC), Canada, 26-27 May 2014. The workshop was organised by Susan B Boyd, Professor of Law and Chair in Feminist Legal Studies at the UBC Faculty of Law, and was sponsored by the Peter Wall Institute for Advanced Studies at UBC, the Peter A Allard School of Law, the Centre for Feminist Legal Studies at UBC, and the Canadian Journal of Women and the Law. The aim of the workshop was to bring together feminist scholars from multiple disciplines and multiple national contexts to explore a source of resistance to feminism that has been largely overlooked in scholarly research: the growing number of nationally situated and globally linked organisations acting in the name of men's rights and interests which contend that men are discriminated against in law, education and government funding, and that feminism is to blame for this. This special edition presents eight papers inspired by the workshop, authored by scholars from Canada, New Zealand, Poland, Sweden and the United States. A second special issue comprised of eight other papers inspired by the workshop was published in the Canadian Journal of Women and the Law as volume 28(1) in 2016.To find out more about this special edition, download the PDF file from this page.

Abstract:
This comparison of the relationship between organized fem- inism and partisan politics in Canada and the United States addresses two questions. First, Young asks how much orga- nized feminism has influenced partisan and electoral politics in each country. Second, she asks how political parties in each country have responded to organized feminism. She answers these questions by examining the relationship between each country's largest feminist organization and its party system and by showing how each relationship changed between 1970 and 1997. The result is an important and readable book that demonstrates the value of feminist political science as an approach, especially in comparative politics. The book is head and shoulders above many other texts about feminist political activism, mainly because of Young's ability to bridge between feminist ideas about politics and the comparative politics literature about political opportunities.

Abstract:
It took a global pandemic for me to recognize how my social work teaching was an act of feminist praxis. I have long identified as a feminist and regularly engage efforts to advance equity for women, primarily centered on the abolition of prisons which disproportionately incarcerate Indigenous and Black women in Canada. Surprisingly, I have never considered how my feminism shows up in my teaching. The following reflexive essay explores the ways in which the feminist principles of centring emotions, rejecting patriarchal hierarchy, and challenging white feminism were embedded into the development and delivery of a graduate level social work research course that was rapidly adapted to being taught online during a global public health crisis. It ends with a call to action for social work educators to incorporate feminist principles into their pedagogies, not only in times of crisis, but as standard practice.

Abstract:
The Government of Canada introduced its new Feminist International Assistance Policy (FIAP) to guide its foreign aid programming in June 2017. This feminist turn mirrors earlier adoptions of feminist aid and foreign policy by Sweden and echoes the current Canadian government’s feminist rhetoric. This paper examines the FIAP and its Action Areas Policies to ask what kind(s) of feminism are reflected in the policy and what groups of people it prioritizes. The paper examines the values, goals, and gaps of the policy in order to understand what feminist values and goals are being operationalized and pursued and what gaps and contradictions exist. By examining the FIAP’s Action Area Policies using a discourse network analysis of the groups represented in the policies, we demonstrate the failings of the FIAP to incorporate an intersectional approach. Our results show that the FIAP adopts a mainstream liberal feminism that excludes many peoples and groups from the core of Canada’s aid efforts.

Abstract:
It is with great pleasure that we present this special issue showcasing contemporary feminist political research, theories and practices in Canada. In an era characterized by global movements and numerous transformations that range from the economic to the environmental, the political to the cultural, from macro- through to micro-scales, including complex debates about the fluidity of gender, and where “backlash” against the symbols and agents of past feminist activism is rife, this special issue queries where do we find feminism(s) today? The responses to this question, as well as to the interrogation of the place of gender in the discipline of political science more generally, are undoubtedly diverse and contested. The collective efforts contained in this special issue feature a mere taste of the rich range of thought-provoking recent scholarship on feminisms. And even with this necessarily condensed portrayal (the articles in this issue are shorter than is normally the case to allow for more work to be featured), the special issue is ground-breaking in that it marks the first time the Canadian Journal of Political Science/Revue canadienne de science politique has dedicated an entire issue to topics of gender and feminisms.

Abstract:
Increasingly, Aboriginal women engage with feminist theory and forms of activism to carve their own space and lay a foundation for an Aboriginal feminism. I compile prominent writings of female Aboriginal authors to identify emerging theoretical strains that centre on decolonization as both theory and methodology. Aboriginal women position decolonization strategies against the intersectionality of race and sex oppression within a colonial context, which they term patriarchal colonialism. They challenge forms of patriarchal colonialism that masquerade as Aboriginal tradition and function to silence and exclude Aboriginal women from sovereignty and leadership spheres. By recalling and reclaiming the pre-colonial Aboriginal principle of egalitarianism, which included women within these spheres, they are positioned to create a hybrid feminism that locates egalitarianism within a contemporary and relevant context by combining it with human rights. In this way, Aboriginal feminism balances culture and tradition with principles of individual and collective rights.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis explores online practices of women in Québec, a culturally and historically distinct province in Canada that is undergoing rapid social and technological transformations, and analyses the discourses that emerge. It zeroes in on blogging, as a facilitator for exploring, constructing and challenging gendered identities. It draws on and contributes to a growing body of literature that investigates and legitimises women's online writings, an area that remains under analysed. This online ethnography was accomplished through face-to-face interviews with 23 Frenchspeaking women bloggers, home visits and an analysis of their blogs. Using feminist critical discourse analysis, the thesis analyses how informants locate themselves inside and outside traditional and mainstream discourses of femininities. It first explores how participants discuss their blogs using domestic metaphors, thereby linking their online expressions to ideas and ideals of the home. Second, it reveals how bloggers share a common concern with putting forward a favourable self, emphasising personal qualities such as education, respect, affability, and impressive online networks. Third, it analyses self-improvement narratives in participants' interviews and blog entries, examining recurring discussions of personality, values and views; body size and image; emotional and mental health; and professional and homemaking skills. The last chapter underlines how blogging provides women with opportunities for networking, a place to discuss challenges and with a means to claim time for themselves. The thesis draws out the complex engagements in an activity they find pleasurable despite working within mainstream gender role constraints and still facing a digital divide. In both discourse and practice, participants seem at ease with blogging but remain highly influenced by traditional discourses. This gives rise to a sense of contradiction where they feel like they exist, have a public life and make a contribution but also exhibit a sense of compulsion and regulation. They break out of the limits of normative femininities perhaps – at the same time creating new 'women's worlds' – even as the use of blogging reinstates and produces conservative forms of self-management.

Abstract:
The primary purpose of this paper is to indicate how Canadian legislative reforms could provide valuable insights regarding the reform of sexual assault law in South Africa. The first section of this paper contains an examination of three particular evidentiary rules in the South African context. In the second section a feminist critique of rape law is used to explore the significance of these rules in rape trials, using the framework of significant themes of the feminist enquiry. In the third section I look at the development of these evidentiary rules in Canada and evaluate the present legal position in this regard, with particular reference to decision of the Supreme Court of Canada in R v Seaboyer, R v Gayme (1991) 83 D.L.R. (4th) 193. In the final instance, an attempt is made to identify some significant lessons for those seeking to formulate the much needed reforms to these rules in South Africa.

Abstract:
AbstractAt the end of a short journey, we can attest to the flourishing production of knowledge on gender and migration that has built up over the past 30 years in particular. Though we have on the whole referred to works in English, there is an extensive literature in other major languages, such as French, German, Italian and Spanish which have emerged from different social science traditions, in recognition of the significance of gendered migrations and feminist movements. English has come to dominate writing in this field (Kofman, 2020), ironically in large part through the European funding of comparative research as well as transatlantic exchanges (Levy et al., 2020). The past 20 years have been a rapid period of intellectual exchange in this field through networks and disciplinary associations, such as the International and European Sociological Associations or IMISCOE which supported a cluster on Gender, Generation and Age (2004–2009). The IMISCOE Migration Research Hub (https://www.migrationresearch.com/) demonstrates the extensive production on gender issues and their connections with other theories and fields of migration. The economic and social transformations brought about by globalisation and transnationalism, and how its unequal outcomes and identities need to be understood through an intersectional lens (Amelina & Lutz, 2019), have heavily shaped studies of gender and migration (see Chap. 10.1007/978-3-030-91971-9_2). Indeed intersectionality has been suggested by some as the major contribution of contemporary feminism to the social sciences, and, has certainly been a theoretical insight that has travelled widely and rapidly from the Anglo world to Europe (Davis, 2020; Lutz, 2014) since it was defined by Kimberlé Crenshaw (1989). We should, however, also remember that it had antecedents in the writing of anti-racist feminists on racist ideology and sex by the French sociologist Claude Guillaumin (1995), on the trinity of gender, race and class in the UK (Anthias & Yuval-Davis, 1992; Parmar, 1982) and by scholars in Australia (Bottomley et al., 1991) and Canada (Stasiulis & Yuval-Davis, 1995).

Abstract:
Introdução: A candidíase é uma infecção fúngica de espectro bastante extenso, que acomete principalmente pacientes imunodeprimidos e apresenta como agente etiológico leveduras do gênero Candida. Considera-se que a candidíase ocorre, principalmente, em consequência de episódios curtos ou longos de imunodepressão e exposição a terapias invasivas. Objetivo: Relatar o caso de paciente grave, imunossuprimida por hiv, que evoluiu com endocardite por cândida. Discutir se o uso de profilaxia antifúngica mudaria o desfecho da paciente. Relato de caso: P. R. H, feminino, 44 anos, recebeu o diagnóstico de HIV com CD4 35 durante internação para investigação de câncer de colo uterino invasivo, associado à síndrome consumptiva e sangramento intestinal, sendo iniciado profiliaxia para complexo Mycobacterium avium (MAC) com Azitromicina 500mg 3x/semana e profilaxia para pneumocistose com Sulfametaxazol-trimetoprima 800/600mg 1x/dia. Realizado colonoscopia, com presença de úlceras de retossigmoide, e biópsia das lesões, com resultado citomegalovirus positivo. Paciente evoluiu com abdome agudo perfurativo e rebaixamento do nível de consciência durante a internação, sendo realizado abordagem cirúrgica, intubação orotraqueal e passagem de cateter venoso central. Nos dias subsequentes, paciente apresentou picou febris, solicitadas hemocultura,s com crescimento de Candida albicans em 2 sítios diferentes e presença de vegetação em ecocardiograma, iniciado micafungina e anfotericina B, conforme indicação da equipe da infectologia, até estabilidade hemodinâmica para abordagem cirúrgica. Discussão A maioria dos casos de candidemia é adquirida pela translocação de Candida através do trato gastrintestinal, além de infecções hematogênicas por Candida spp., também cateteres vasculares centrais, assim como administração parenteral de soluções contaminadas. Logo, as medidas profiláticas baseiam-se na detecção desses aspectos e na busca do controle das patologias de início, além de reduzir a exposição dos pacientes aos fatores de risco citados. Conclusão: Dessa forma, é recomendável prescrever racionalmente procedimentos médicos invasivos ou terapias medicamentosas, assim como a suspensão desses logo que possível.

Abstract:
Introdução: O hímen imperfurado (HI) é uma anomalia congênita incomum do trato genital feminino. É a alteração obstrutiva do aparelho genital feminino mais frequente, com a obstrução completa do introito vaginal pela membrana himenal, e a causa mais comum de hematocolpo, levando à distensão da região vaginal, uterina e de trompas. É frequentemente diagnosticada em meninas adolescentes após a menarca, apresentando-se principalmente com amenorreia e dor abdominal inferior ou retenção urinária, com uma incidência aproximada de 0,05-0,1%. O hímen é uma membrana que se desenvolve embriologicamente por meio da junção do seio urogenital e os bulbos sinovaginais. Nos estágios embrionários, a porção central dessa membrana sofre degeneração de suas células epiteliais, permitindo a conexão entre o vestíbulo e o canal vaginal. Se essa fase falhar, os indivíduos nascem com HI. Raramente faz parte da doença hereditária sistêmica, embora alguns autores tenham enfatizado a necessidade de descartar malformações mullerianas associadas. Relato do caso: Paciente de 13 anos, encaminhada para consulta pré-operatória mediante diagnóstico ultrassonográfico de massa anexial. Apresentava queixa de desconforto pélvico e disúria. Relata ausência de menacme. Ao exame ginecológico, constatou-se a presença de HI. Realizou-se himenectomia, com saída de sangue em jato de coloração escura totalizando um litro e meio. Conclusão: Chamamos a atenção para a importância do exame físico, já que a pseudoimagem de cisto ovariano nada mais era do que hematocolpo e hematometra. O diagnóstico impõe-se mediante a ausência de menarca e a inspeção da genitália externa. A história menstrual e as características sexuais secundárias devem ser investigadas nessas adolescentes. O diagnóstico idealmente deveria ser quando recém-natas, pois ao ser descoberto tardiamente pode trazer complicações para as pacientes portadoras da obstrução. Portanto, os médicos, especialmente urologistas, ginecologistas ou pediatras, devem examinar cuidadosamente todas as pacientes do sexo feminino ao nascer.

Abstract:
Introdução: Os traumatismos na área genital feminina, a depender de sua gravidade e dimensão, podem afetar órgãos reprodutivos, urinários, gastrointestinais, além de todo o contexto biopsicossocial da vida da paciente. Assim, ao dar ênfase aos traumas oriundos de acidentes automobilísticos, nota-se que estes podem gerar lesões que exigem do médico em atendimento a abordagem adequada ao ferimento, bem como o acolhimento da vítima para amenizar a dor, os anseios e as sequelas decorrentes da situação causadora da lesão, a fim de que seja feito um tratamento compatível com suas necessidades psíquicas e fisiológicas. Objetivo: Analisar o caso clínico de uma vítima de acidente de trânsito que sofreu rotura perineal e anal de 3º grau, com indicação cirúrgica de perineoplastia. Relato de Caso: V.A.V., 37 anos, sexo feminino, sofreu trauma de moto em colisão frontal com automóvel há 4 anos, ocasionando fratura pélvica, bem como rotura perineal e anal de 3º grau. Foi submetida à transversostomia, para implantação de bolsa de colostomia, e à cirurgia ortopédica, para colocação de fixador sacroilíaco e fixador de ramos isquiopúbicos, ambos bilateralmente. Em seguida, realizou-se biofeedback, por dois anos, programando cirurgia de Lawson Tait. Deu, então, entrada hospitalar para internação pré-operatória para a reconstrução da região genital, sem queixas. À avaliação ginecológica, o períneo apresentava-se íntegro, com uma única abertura para micção e canal vaginal. No dia seguinte, em jejum e em antibioticoprofilaxia com cefazolina, a paciente foi levada ao centro cirúrgico ginecológico e submetida à raquianestesia. Na posição de litotomia, foi feita antissepsia e assepsia local, sondagem vesical, com saída de urina clara, e conseguinte abertura da mucosa vaginal posterior até o terço superior da vagina. Com a dissecção da mucosa vaginal lateral até as bordas mediais do septo reto-vaginal e do períneo, foi feita a identificação do esfíncter externo do ânus e músculo transverso superficial do períneo. Houve, então, a aproximação das bordas do septo vaginal, reconstruindo o septo. Em seguida, realizou-se a aproximação do transverso superficial do períneo, a aproximação do bulbo cavernoso e, por fim, o fechamento da mucosa vaginal. Assim, efetuou-se a síntese da pele, com consequente avaliação da integridade dos pontos por toque retal e vaginal, bem como da diurese da paciente. E, finalmente, a hemostasia e assepsia final. No dia posterior à cirurgia, já em ingesta oral, afebril, normotensa, normocárdica, com diurese presente na cor clara, sem queixas, ausência de sinais flogísticos à inspeção e de ademais intercorrências, a paciente recebeu alta hospitalar. Conclusão: Verifica-se, portanto, a necessidade do cuidado intensivo e ampliado do médico, bem como da avaliação individualizada e criteriosa dessas lesões. É imprescindível, também, que o tratamento priorize sempre o bem-estar e a qualidade de vida da paciente, além de oferecer autonomia e independência à vítima.

Abstract:
Introdução: A candidíase vaginal recorrente é uma infecção que ocorre de forma frequente na vida da mulher. O trato genital feminino é acometido por fungos, sendo o principal a Candida albicans, que gera um desequilíbrio da flora vaginal por alterações fisiológicas ou não. Objetivos: Estudar os fatores que influenciam no surgimento da candidíase e quais os meios de prevenção devem ser reforçados para que a mesma não venha a surgir. Material e métodos: Foram utilizados como materiais e método para atingir os propósitos da presente pesquisa o estudo de revisão bibliográfica relacionado a candidíase, através da análise de artigos científicos encontrados na plataforma Scielo datados de 2010 a 2020 tanto em língua portuguesa quanto em inglesa publicados em revistas médicas. As palavras chaves utilizadas para a pesquisa foram "candídiase recorrente", "candidíase vaginal" e "recurrent candidiasis". Foram selecionados os artigos mais relevantes à proposta do artigo e que melhor se adequaram a atingir os objetivos descritos para a pesquisa. Resultados: Foi observado que a candidíase vaginal é recorrente quando ocorre no mínimo quatro casos de infecção ao ano. Os fatores que a desencadeiam ocorrem predominantemente àquelas mulheres que tem hábitos considerados de risco, como o uso de roupas com tecido sintéticos, justas na região perineal, bem como as portadora de diabetes, disfunções hormonais e as que sofrem estresse diariamente. Ainda, constatou-se o fato de que a mudança alimentar para uma nutrição saudável contribue para a cura e prevenção da candidíase. Conclusão: Os estudos mostram que o fungo que mais causa candidíase é o Candida albicans, ainda que existam outros. O tratamento indicado tradicionalmente é o uso de pomada vaginal e medicamento oral, além disso, algumas mudanças de hábitos alimentares podem ser preventivas. Uma das formas de diminuir os fatores seria evita-los e agregar uma alimentação saudável na vida cotidiana da mulher, aliado a distribuição de informações acerca do assunto quanto a profilaxia dessa infeccção que hostiliza tão frequentemente as mulheres.

Abstract:
Introdução: A neoplasia de ânus e canal anal corresponde a aproximadamente 4% dos tumores anorretais. Possui fatores de risco preveníveis - como infecções sexualmente transmissíveis (por exemplo, papilomavírus humano e vírus da imunodeficiência humana), práticas sexuais desprotegidas, tabagismo, condições de higiene - e não preveníveis - como fístulas anais crônicas e imunossupressão por transplante ou outras causas. Objetivo: Analisar as notificações de novos casos e óbitos por faixa etária da neoplasia de ânus e canal anal no Brasil entre 2013 e 2019. Métodos: Trata-se de estudo ecológico, descritivo, com dados do Painel-Oncologia - Brasil e do Sistema de Informação de Mortalidade, obtidos no Departamento de Informática do Sistema Único de Saúde. Consideraram-se os novos casos e os óbitos entre 2013 e 2019 de acordo com as variáveis sexo/faixa etária (0-29, 30-59, 60 anos ou mais). Foram calculadas frequências absolutas e relativas das variáveis. Resultados: Foram registradas 8.619 notificações no período, sendo 1.040 (12,1%) em 2013 e 2.219 (25,7%) em 2019. Dessas, 128 (1,5%) com menos de 30 anos, 3.958 (45,9%) e 4.533 (52,6%) em pessoas idosas. As notificações em menores de 30 anos aumentaram aproximadamente 1.200%, enquanto no grupo acima de 60 anos esse aumento foi de 230%. A população diagnosticada foi majoritariamente feminina, com 70% dos casos (6.030). Quanto aos óbitos, ocorreram 3.474 notificações no período, sendo 2019 o ano mais expressivo (893), com 25,7% do total, 300% a mais que 2013. Apesar de menor número de óbitos na população menor de 30 anos, esta apresentou o aumento mais expressivo durante o período (400%). Conclusão: A neoplasia anal é prevenível com medidas que vão desde práticas sexuais protegidas/vacinação contra o papilomavírus humano/hábitos adequados de higiene até o rastreamento sistemático de lesões precursoras. Evidencia-se aumento de novos casos e óbitos na população jovem e entre as mulheres, chamando atenção para elaboração de estratégias de prevenção primária e secundária direcionadas a esses grupos, que podem ser profícuas na transformação dessa realidade.

Abstract:
Introdução: Pessoas infectadas com o vírus da imunodeficiência humana têm maior propensão a desenvolver tuberculose, sendo essa a principal causa de morte e infecção oportunista nesses indivíduos. A Candida spp. é um fungo potencialmente patogênico em pacientes com vírus da imunodeficiência humana e doenças broncopulmonares. Objetivo: Descrever a ocorrência de candidose oral em pacientes com coinfecção de vírus da imunodeficiência humana/tuberculose. Métodos: Dados clínicos foram obtidos a partir de prontuários de 810 pessoas que vivem com vírus da imunodeficiência humana atendidas em um Serviço de Atenção Especializado em Doenças Sexualmente Transmissíveis/aids do Sul do Brasil. Dessas, 24 (3%) apresentaram coinfecção de vírus da imunodeficiência humana/ tuberculose e foram incluídas no presente estudo. Este estudo possui aprovação em comitê de ética sob parecer número 2.770.634. Resultados: A média de idade dos pacientes com coinfecção vírus da imunodeficiência humana/tuberculose foi de 45 ± 11 anos, sendo 29% (n=7) do sexo feminino e 71% (n=17) do sexo masculino; 37,5% (n=9) apresentaram registro de ocorrência de candidose oral. Desses, a maioria eram homens (67%, n=6), 78% (n=7) possuíam registro de linfócitos TCD4 < 350 células/mm3 e 55% (n=5) faziam uso regular da terapia antirretroviral, enquanto 45% (n=4) faziam uso de maneira irregular ou haviam interrompido a terapia antirretroviral. Conclusão: A ocorrência de candidose oral pode estar relacionada a diversas condições de natureza oportunista, imunossupressão, baixa adesão aterapia antirretroviral e presença de comorbidades, sendo a manifestação oral mais comum em pacientes com coinfecção de vírus da imunodeficiência humana/tuberculose.

Abstract:
Introdução: A infecção causada pelo Papiloma vírus Humano é o principal fator associado a evolução do câncer do colo do útero também chamado de câncer cervical, a sua principal via de transmissão é a sexual, mas existe a possibilidade de transmissão por outras vias como a sanguínea e o canal do parto. Todavia entre os fatores de riscos que desencadeiam o Papiloma vírus Humano (HPV) se encontram relação sexual precoce, tabagismo, gravidez, o uso de contraceptivos orais e a faixa etária em que o indivíduo se encontra. É de extrema importância que as mulheres façam periodicamente o Papanicolau para que a infecção seja detectada, em geral, a infecção no colo do útero tem evolução lenta, apresentando fases que, se diagnosticadas precocemente e tratadas adequadamente, podem ter cura. Objetivo: Este estudo objetivou avaliar o impacto direto do HPV para a sociedade, identificando os fatores de riscos associados à infecção. Metodologia: Foram utilizadas pesquisas bibliográficas de literaturas relativas ao assunto em estudo, como: artigos publicados na internet, livros e sites oficiais. As buscas realizadas datam de 1997 a 2021, sem excluir fontes vindouras. Resultados: Estão entre os principais fatores de risco, múltiplos parceiros sexuais, ter menos de 25 anos de idade e início da atividade sexual em uma idade precoce (16 anos ou menos). Sabe-se que 99,8% das mulheres com câncer do colo do útero estiveram expostas ao vírus HPV em algum momento de suas vidas. Segundo o Instituto Nacional de Câncer (INCA), o câncer do colo do útero é o segundo tumor mais frequente na população feminina e a quarta causa de morte de mulheres por câncer no Brasil. Conclusão: Em suma, pelas circunstancias expostas, que devem ser realizadas campanhas de conscientização da população acerca dos sintomas, prevenções e formas de transmissão do Papiloma vírus Humano, já que atinge um grande número de mulheres, anualmente.

In this thoroughly researched, skillfully written thesis, the author explores young women’s dis/identifications with feminism, and dis/articulations of feminism, within contemporary Aotearoa/New Zealand. The premise of the research is that whilst many young women value the work of the early feminists in terms of gender equality and individual freedom for themselves, only a small number position themselves as feminist. Indeed, the author identified research with young women in the United Kingdom, the United States, Germany and Canada which supported this premise. Comparative research on young women’s identifications with feminism in Aotearoa/New Zealand, was, however, absent within the literature and this thesis set out to address this gap. Overall, the thesis addresses the New Zealand context with considerable scholarly integrity and depth, demonstrating originality and a well-considered analytical response to the data.

Abstract:
A relatively small number of countries have an explicit “Feminist Foreign Policy” (FFP). Those most often cited are Sweden, Canada, France, Mexico, and Spain. In theory, an FFP moves beyond gender mainstreaming in foreign development assistance to include: (1) a wider range of external actions, including defence, trade and diplomacy (2) a wider range of marginalised people, not just women. Within foreign development assistance, it implies a more coherent and systematically institutionalised approach to gender mainstreaming. In practice, those countries with an explicit FFP implement it in different ways. Canada currently focuses on development assistance, France on development assistance and formal diplomacy, Sweden more comprehensively covers the trade and defence policy arenas. Mexico and Spain are yet to produce detailed implementation plans. There is increasing academic interest in FFP, but most analyses found during the course of this rapid review focus on narrative content of policies rather than impact. Policy advocacy and advice is provided by several high-profile advocacy organisations. National government agencies in Sweden, France and Canada have produced some evaluations of their FFP, but the evidence is weak. There are many international institution evaluations of gender mainstreaming for many different sectors that are context-specific.
