Holding Protest Posters And Handheld Consoles: Activism In Animal Crossing: New Horizons, Bryanna Tidmarsh
English
The video game Animal Crossing: New Horizons (ACNH) was released in March 2020, just as the world was going into lockdown due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Designed for children ages 3 and up, ACNH hosts a large player base from a wide variety of ages. For many, the idea of building an idyllic, remote island and connecting with friends online has been a valuable outlet in a time of isolation. For activists, it offers a space for engaging in collective action. Megan Musgrave coins the term “imaginary activism” to refer to the way activism in youth literature incorporates “reactions on …

Adolescent Girls’ And Young Women’S Economic Empowerment Programs: Emerging Insights From A Review Of Reviews, Nicole Haberland, Thomas De Hoop, Sapna Desai, Sarah Engebretsen, Thoai Ngo
Poverty, Gender, and Youth
This review of reviews aimed to assess what interventions, especially group-based interventions, show promise in economically empowering adolescent girls and young women in low and middle-income countries (LMICs). In addition, we examined the promise of specific economic components, combinations of components, and core topics. We searched five databases as well as other sources and identified 2,467 citations, resulting in 17 reviews, 10 of which quantified their results. We found too little evidence to classify any of the examined interventions as clearly “effective.” None of the reviews found negative effects or harmful findings, however. Most intervention–outcome pairings were unknown; that is, …

The Adolescent Girls Initiative–Kenya is a study that evaluates the long-term impact of a multisectoral intervention targeted at adolescent girls aged 11 to 15 years from Kibera and rural Wajir.

A random selection of 6,000 girls were exposed to different components of the intervention. Key results, noted in this brief, are: conditional cash transfers are a key driver of improvement in education outcomes, and of delaying sexual debut and pregnancy in …

The Adolescent Girls Initiative-Kenya—Executive Summary: Two-Year Follow Up Results, Population Council
Poverty, Gender, and Youth
In Kenya, early pregnancy is a challenge for girls that often has immediate effects on their educational opportunities, future implications for their social, health, and economic outcomes, and immediate and ongoing negative impacts on their children. Early pregnancy is an outcome shaped by a myriad of issues affecting an adolescent girl’s life—including community norms on gender roles, violence, and the social value of girls; barriers to formal education; household poverty; lack of economic independence; experience of violence; and social isolation. For girls to achieve well-being in early and late adolescence, no single-sector intervention—whether it be education, health, wealth creation, or …

Reducing The Prevalence Of Child Domestic Servitude In Addis Ababa: Stakeholder And Expert Scoping Study, The Freedom Fund, Population Council

It’s typically characterized by excessively low or no salary, few or no days off, limited or restricted freedom of movement, and denial of a minimum level of privacy, safe living conditions, and health care.

UAEU Law Journal
In 1924, the Hague Rules were adopted. The purpose of the Rules was to establish a standardized set of definitions and rules to govern the terms and conditions used in ocean bills of lading. One of its unique provisions limits a carrier's liability for lost or damaged cargo on a “per package or unit” basis; however, the said Rules failed to define the term “package” and “unit” which lead to disputes between carriers and shippers. To resolve their differences, both shippers and carriers heavily litigated the issue of what a “package” and “unit” is for purposes of limiting a carrier's …
