“Female victims continue to be particularly affected by trafficking in persons. In 2018, for every 10 victims detected globally, about five were adult women and two were girls. About one third of the overall detected victims were children, both girls (19 per cent) and boys (15 per cent), while 20 per cent were adult men. Traffickers target victims who are marginalized or in difficult circumstances. Undocumented migrants and people who are in desperate need of employment are also vulnerable, particularly to trafficking …

Fighting Human Trafficking By Better Understanding Nonprofit Collaboration, 2022 WikiCharities
Fighting Human Trafficking By Better Understanding Nonprofit Collaboration, Angie Holzer
Journal of Nonprofit Innovation
Abstract: This research study examines nonprofit organizations and how collaboration plays a part in the human trafficking efforts within the United States. A descriptive study was conducted analyzing data from a quantitative, survey-based research method. Using a sample of 29 nonprofit leaders working in fighting human trafficking, data was collected on 1) what challenges nonprofits face in collaborating, 2) what technology tools nonprofits use to collaborate, and 3) how many other groups a single nonprofit works with in combating human trafficking. The findings show that the main challenges are 1) limited time, and 2) competition and/or lack of trust.
I’M Interested In Autoethnography, But How Do I Do It?, 2022 Nova Southeastern University
I’M Interested In Autoethnography, But How Do I Do It?, Robin Cooper, Bruce V. Lilyea
The Qualitative Report
Autoethnography is one of the qualitative research methodologies that remains somewhat mysterious to many scholars. While the use of autoethnography has expanded across numerous fields, it can be difficult to find much guidance about the procedures involved in conducting an autoethnography. Recognizing both the flexibility and creativity inherent in autoethnography, as well as the need for rigor in achieving meaningful research results, we offer in this article some suggestions and reflections regarding the process of conducting an autoethnography – from developing the research question to reporting the findings. These recommendations draw from both narrative and ethnographic research methodologies, as well …

Repertorio Estético-Afectivo De Hombres Anti-Patriarcales: La Construcción De Otras Masculinidades, Jorge A. Jimenez Rodas, Juan C. Arboleda-Ariza, Milton D. Morales Herrera
The Qualitative Report
Los estudios de género en hombres y masculinidades retoman las bases de la crítica feminista para analizar los procesos y subjetividades masculinas. Este proceso ha estado acompañado de la creación cada vez más visible de colectivos de hombres que se oponen a los marcos hegemónicos de la masculinidad y promueven, por medio de un activismo político, versiones alternativas de entender lo masculino. En este trabajo nos preguntamos por el discurso que utilizan estos hombres y las consecuencias de este. Para esto analizamos el discurso de doce hombres latinoamericanos que participan en estos grupos e identificamos a partir de la variabilidad …

What Was It Like To Deliver Psychotherapy During The Covid-19 Pandemic? Understanding Therapists’ Perspectives Using A Phenomenological Collaborative Writing Approach, 2022 Avon and Wiltshire Mental Health Partnership
What Was It Like To Deliver Psychotherapy During The Covid-19 Pandemic? Understanding Therapists’ Perspectives Using A Phenomenological Collaborative Writing Approach, Katherine Hall, Alice Pitt, Emma Pope, Aurielle Goddard, Elisabetta Howe, Stephanie Upton, Thanos Tsapas
The Qualitative Report
COVID-19 presented rapid challenges to usual practice within mental health services. Despite the suspension of face-to-face psychotherapy, as a group we felt compelled to adapt so that our relationships with patients could continue. This article documents some of the challenges and opportunities faced by our group. We use collaborative writing as a method of inquiry, informed by a phenomenological approach. Each of the six therapists in the group and the supervisor wrote a freestyle personal reflection; when these reflections were viewed together, noticeable themes emerged which bear relevance to future practice. We present here anonymised vignettes (excerpts from therapists’ reflections) …

El Entre-Nos Femenino: Una Promesa Política, Magda V. Díaz Alzate Sra, Nicolasa M. Durán Palacio Dra, Deysafira Gómez Durán Sra
The Qualitative Report
La participación de las mujeres en los escenarios enfrenta a dos graves obstáculos: su tradicional confinamiento a la vida doméstica y la definición de la Mujer en singular, que no admite la comprensión de la diversidad y la pluralidad. Una de las consecuencias de estos obstáculos, es la minimización de la participación de las mujeres en los espacios públicos, además, el afán del sistema patriarcal para mantener a las mujeres individualizadas. Este trabajo presenta dos categorías como resultados de una investigación cualitativa con enfoque feminista y diseño hermenéutico ontológico-político, cuyo objetivo fue comprender la configuración de subjetividades políticas en mujeres …

The Importance Of Trauma-Informed Approaches In Education – The Impact Of Implementing A Brain-Based Approach To Supporting Learners Across A Scottish Local Authority, 2022 Clackmannanshire Educational Psychology Service
The Importance Of Trauma-Informed Approaches In Education – The Impact Of Implementing A Brain-Based Approach To Supporting Learners Across A Scottish Local Authority, Lesley Taylor, Whitney Barrett
International Journal of School Social Work
Throughout the history of education, a series of fashions, fads and trends has come and gone – some resulting in widespread changes in approach, some creating barely a ripple in the "pedagogical pool". Currently, a wave is being created by the desire to develop approaches that are trauma-informed – a move that is being driven by a number of factors including the introduction of funding streams such as the Scottish Attainment Challenge (SAC) and the Pupil Equity Fund (PEF), alongside growing public awareness of the impact childhood trauma and adversity has across many areas of a child’s development.
However, we …
When Trauma Comes To School: Toward A Socially Just Trauma-Informed Praxis, 2022 Maynooth University School of Education
When Trauma Comes To School: Toward A Socially Just Trauma-Informed Praxis, Catriona O'Toole
International Journal of School Social Work
Given the prevalence and devastating consequences of childhood trauma, there has been a surge in initiatives to help schools become trauma-informed. However, despite the growing adoption of such initiatives, a number of concerns have been expressed. These include the lack of attention paid to issues of power and inequality including poverty, racism, and community violence as well as the power of adults to neglect, mistreat or abuse children. Contemporary approaches can also serve to inscribe deficit-based perceptions of children, reinforcing negative stereotypes and stigmas; and they tend to overlook the possibility that schools themselves can contribute to students’ distress, especially …
The Healing Power Of Teacher-Student Relationships In Repairing Childhood Abuse: Commonalities And Differences With Clinical Social Work Practice, 2022 University of Toronto
The Healing Power Of Teacher-Student Relationships In Repairing Childhood Abuse: Commonalities And Differences With Clinical Social Work Practice, Mehak Jamil
International Journal of School Social Work
Research indicates survivors of childhood abuse are able to form the same quality relationships with teachers as non-abused children (Armstrong, Hasket & Hawkins, 2017). However, there is little research indicating what factors within the teacher-student relationship help build this resiliency. This study looks to clinical social work practice as a basis for understanding what qualities of the therapeutic relationship can extend to or overlap with non-clinical relationships with students who have a trauma history, within the teaching field. To better understand experiences within these relationships, semi-structured interviews were conducted with both a clinical social worker who has teaching experience at …

School Social Workers In The Milieu: Ubuntu As A Social Justice Imperative, Lynn Lim, Johanna C. Baez, Meghan Gabriel Pataky, Ellen Wilder, Hester Wilhelmina Van Sittert
International Journal of School Social Work
Supporting community resilience throughout the milieu, or school community, is a social justice imperative in providing trauma-informed approaches in education. More school social workers need to view their work as a community-level intervention with a trauma-informed approach that includes collaborating with students and staff throughout the building and within the neighboring community. This conceptual article will explore the humanistic concepts of the milieu as a focus of intervention and the South African value of ubuntu, our interconnectedness, through the lens of school social work. The milieu is a humanistic principle in which the community works together to support each …

2. In what ways is mental mapping a robust tool for gathering the stories (data) of vulnerable populations such as unhoused women?
3. What does the spatialization of unsafe locations look like and are demographic groupings dissimilarly affected?
4. What are the critical reasons for unsafety identified by participants?
5. How do homeless women respond to urban unsafety; …
Ethnicity, Self-Knowledge And Literary Sensitivity: A Sociological Reading Of V. S. Naipaul’S First Four Novels, 2022 National Law School of India University
Ethnicity, Self-Knowledge And Literary Sensitivity: A Sociological Reading Of V. S. Naipaul’S First Four Novels, N. Jayaram
Articles
Taking a cue from G. S. Ghurye’s Shakespeare on Conscience and Justice (1965) this lecture in his memory explores the role of ethnicity in shaping the selfknowledge and literary sensitivity of V. S. Naipaul. Naipaul’s life traverses three distinct cultures: the Hindu culture brought by his ancestors who came as indentured migrants to Trinidad, the Creole culture of colonial Trinidad and the emerging modern culture of western civilisation. Much of Naipaul’s self-knowledge involved his engagement with these three cultures and his experience of the interplay between colonialism and ethnicity. In his first four novels—Miguel Street, The Mystic Masseur, The Suffrage …
Internal And External Challenges To Culpability, 2022 University of Pennsylvania Carey Law School
Internal And External Challenges To Culpability, Stephen J. Morse
All Faculty Scholarship
This article was presented at “Guilty Minds: A Virtual Conference on Mens Rea and Criminal Justice Reform” at Arizona State University’s Sandra Day O’Connor College of Law. It is forthcoming in Arizona State Law Journal Volume 53, Issue 2.
The thesis of this article is simple: As long as we maintain the current folk psychological conception of ourselves as intentional and potentially rational creatures, as people and not simply as machines, mental states will inevitably remain central to ascriptions of culpability and responsibility more generally. It is also desirable. Nonetheless, we are in a condition of unprecedented internal challenges to …
What Do Epidemic History And Sexual Minority Men’S Experiences Of Hiv And Covid-19 Teach Us About Pandemic Preparedness?, 2022 Syracuse University
What Do Epidemic History And Sexual Minority Men’S Experiences Of Hiv And Covid-19 Teach Us About Pandemic Preparedness?, Amy Braksmajer, Andrew London
Population Health Research Brief Series
For many, COVID-19 feels like the first, massive, life-threatening epidemic of infectious disease they have faced. However, for sexual minority individuals who have experienced trauma and loss stemming from the HIV epidemic, there are many similarities. This brief summarizes findings from interviews with men who have lived through both pandemics as a way to gain insights into the commonalities and differences of their experiences. Findings show that men who lived through both epidemics believe the government did not do enough to respond to either crisis. To better prepare for future epidemics, public health efforts must be less fragmented, including a …
