≈ Comments Off on Behavioral Hygiene Promotion Research Grants

American Public Health Association Offers Behavioral Hygiene Promotion Research Grants to Young Faculty and Students

Deadline: October 1, 2006

The International Health Section of the American Public Health Association (http://www.apha-ih.org/), in collaboration with Colgate Palmolive (http://www.colgate.com/), has announced the second annual round of a small grants program to support young faculty and students in schools of public health to carry out community-based field research in behavioral hygiene.

These competitive grants will be awarded for community-based research projects investigating the role of hygiene (especially handwashing with soap) in personal and community health and infection control, including investigations about the knowledge of proper hygiene habits, hygiene motivation, and behavior change. The research should focus on mothers, families, and children in resource-poor settings.

Three awards of approximately $10,000 each will be made, on the basis of merit, but with preference being given to projects in one of the following countries: Puerto Rico, Mexico, Colombia, Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Panama, Thailand, Malaysia, South Africa, Senegal, Kenya, Mozambique, or the United States (with migrant or immigrant populations). Awards are to be made through schools of public health based in the United States or in another country as long as the field
research is carried out in one of the above countries.

Visit the APHA International Health Section Web site for additional information.

Ideas For Handwashing Educators

I think more such small but significant grants for community-based research is needed. This is not only for local modifications of ideas but for stimulating “me tech” (vernacular engineering), engaging one’s neighbors and family, and developing novel ideas we all could use.

With or without grants, please be sure to evaluate if your school or Village project works or not and what you would do to improve it. (Even ideas that don’t work are valuable to learn from. Perhaps even more valuable than ideas that do work.) Then get the word out to others by sharing or publishing.

We especially need innovative ideas for use in camps and homes that don’t have running water. I have a school teacher thesis from the 1960s (deep storage) which describes ways of making sanitary water stations on the frozen river or handwashing sink and disposal out of 55 gal drums. The same simple technology and procedures used in the trace analysis labs that measure mercury in fish can also be adapted to provide clean water for handwashing in the home. Local creativity with guidance has been able to develop sanitary dumping areas in Villages without landfills and convenient and usable carcass pits (see solid waste resources at http://13C4.wordpress.com)

GermSmall grants to support innovative handwashing education methods were given to 26 local organizations statewide. Here’s the best of the best!

Rhonda McBride appointed rural advisor to Gov. Palin

25 Thursday Oct 2007

revised 2008-10-27 Palin forms group to address Alaska Native issues By RACHEL D’ORO – ANCHORAGE, Alaska (AP) —

Gov. Sarah Palin is forming an administrative group to address issues in largely Native, rural parts of the state.

Many Alaska Natives say Palin has ignored them and failed to protect their ancient traditions during her tenure, even though her husband is part Alaska Native. The Republican vice presidential candidate is away on the campaign trail but made the announcement Thursday in a prerecorded speech played before thousands of people attending a yearly convention of Alaska Natives in Anchorage. Palin says the new rural subcabinet group will work with representatives of rural communities to tackle issues like public safety, education and health care. The group will include existing Cabinet members and two Alaska Native commissioners.

“As I envision it, the subcabinet will work closely with representatives of rural communities, tribes, corporations, nonprofits and other entities to discuss issues of concern and to design acceptable solutions,” said Palin, … “I know that to the current energy situation, some folks feel forced to leave their homes and their heritage and are making the move to more urban centers where the cost of living is less expensive and the odds of finding a decent job is better,” Palin said.

  • Palin tells AFN she’s forming rural subcabinet [see her earlier promise noted below]
  • [revised 2008-10-14 T22:15:27] The news tonight (CBS KTVA) announced Rhonda McBride’s resignation as rural advisor, effective the end of the month. In her statement to Alaska Native groups, McBride said she resigned to allow more Alaska Natives in the Governor’s cabinet. I will try to find the actual statement. Sounds a bit odd to me. Rhonda was certainly qualified to speak about rural Alaska issues, but one person does not a cabinet position make.

    Palin’s rural adviser quits By ANNE SUTTON – 4 hours ago

    …”In all honesty, I have never felt authentic in my role,” McBride wrote in her e-mail, a copy of which was obtained by the AP.

    McBride, who covered rural issues as a reporter before becoming rural adviser last year, said she would return to journalism to help bring attention to Native issues.

    She said her last day would be Oct. 23.

    revised2008-10-15 Writing Raven — Another Palin personnel problem— has the full text of Rhonda’s message, which is far more important than what the news stories have highlighted. The reference to DCRA is key, I feel. [What is the import of rural Alaska to the people of Alaska as executed by elected officials (the “chief executive officer” is the Governor)? As indicated by the “rural advisor” substitute for a sub-cabinet (or cabinet position) and now resignation and the other cabinet shuffles that Writing Raven notes, we still aren’t at the table with the grown-ups. mpb]

    Rhonda McBride will be able to do far more for rural Alaska by her return to journalism than by staying in the Palin administration, which is a discouraging thing to say.

    —————————————
    Gov. Sarah Palin during her state of the state address last January 2007 suggested she would establish a sub-cabinet on rural issues. Today she announced at her address to the Alaska Federation of Natives convention that Rhonda McBride is to be her new rural advisor.
    Rhonda McBride

    McBride is a KTUU-TV journalist and former news director at KYUK-TV in Bethel. She had a regional noon newscast that was very welcome (until the state decided not to fund rural news). A biography is here, http://tinyurl.com/ypvmfb although it has some typos (“Prior to moving to Alaska in 1998 [sic]“)

    I hope the Governor doesn’t change the name of the advisor, as she indicated today. “Advisor” at least implies that views and information from rural Alaska will get to the Governor’s ear. In many other institutions, a “rural public relations officer” would only get the Governor’s chosen word to rural us’ns. I also hope “rural” will include the Unorganized Borough tundra roots science and community-based research department.

    If you tried to E-mail the Governor, after December try E-mailing Rhonda. I hope she gets office assistance. Rural Alaska is about 2/3 of the state, in area, e.g., Illinois, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Missouri, Kansas, Iowa, (and Nebraska?).

    [revised] 2008-09-02Rhonda’s contact info is
    McBride, Rhonda
    Rural Advisor (907)269-7450
    Office of the Governor rhonda.mcbride AT alaska.gov
    EXE-EXECUTIVE OFFICE ANCH Atwood Bldg, 550 W 7th Ave
    Anchorage, AK 99501

    Please note that Rhonda McBride is Governor Palin’s advisor. She is NOT the Republican nominee contact person. All that information is now handled by someone at the McCain-Palin campaign.

    Also note that the Governor’s rural advisor, like so many other state offices, does NOT have a toll-free number to call. It costs 5 (five) times more to call Anchorage or Juneau than it does to call Washington, DC.

    About me

    This is a site for users in remote areas wanting to update their knowledge and skills.

    My basic philosophy in community–based research (a.k.a., grass–roots science) has always been—

      that technical skills and expertise are to be developed within the communities in order for this knowledge base to be retained after a contract or grant period ends.

    I believe that when communities ask their own questions, have their own data, and their own collation, analysis, and interpretation of others’ data they will

    • understand the disease and health trends of their communities;
    • be able to predict the health trends and prepare for appropriate action for the communities;
    • portray the total health and environment program requirements of the tribal communities to other communities, organizations, and Congress;
    • allocate scarce resources for their own protection in the most productive manner;
    • participate fully in the development of health information systems, useful to other rural communities, especially in areas of the release of hazardous materials and environmental threat;
    • enable tribal leadership to effectively communicate environmental and health concerns to their respective communities;
    • enable the communities to choose wisely among various outside offers of technical and scientific help; to control the quality of the data, research, analysis, and products from outside contractors, consultants, and agencies; and to oversee and coordinate the efforts of BIA and IHS executed on behalf of tribal communities.

    [This is a housekeeping entry.]

    I suspect many readers visit for specific posts and others are using feed readers for posts and comments. While the blog format is very flexible for information and discussion it’s technical restrictions are a little challenging for me to keep folks up to date on revisions and to highlight other posts of possible interest.

    Index or Contents posts like this one [such as the alphabetical listing or the reverse chronological listing] will be cross-indexed on the Table of Contents page. Because it is a regular post, feed readers will be notified.

    “Popular posts” is one such tool provided by WordPress.com. I doubt that it is very accurate for actual readers but the relative rankings provide an alternative way to find items of interest. I wish there was a way to get the full set of data they collect, especially for the referrers (see http://cerebraloddjobs.edublogs.org/2006/09/30/referrers-in-edublogs/), to see what it is that people are looking for. This would help to revise information or add new information [so would reader comments and queries]. Unfortunately,WP.com don’t have a consistent way to present this data to blog administrators (asking for daily referrers gives a very different set of information than getting the weekly or yearly referrers. Same data but the presentation to the human at this end is patchy.) Notice how the titles are truncated, for example.

    The ranking for 2007 is given first and then for 2008 (up to July 12)

    Review of a disaster preparedness training for tribal leaders

    Disaster Preparedness Training for Tribal Leaders http://www.occup-med.com/content/pdf/1745-6673-3-2.pdf (pdf file format)

    Describes a disaster preparedness training program for tribal leaders conducted in Arizona. Discusses the role of cultural competency, respect for tribal sovereignty, solicitation of historical examples of indigenous preparedness, and incorporation of tribal community networks in the success of the program.

    Date: 2008
    Journal: Journal of Occupational Medicine and Toxicology Volume: 3 Issue: 2

    from The Rural Assistance Center— a collaborative effort of the University of North Dakota Center for Rural Health, and the Rural Policy Research Institute (RUPRI) funded by a grant through HRSA’s Office of Rural Health Policy. All listings contained in this e-mail can also be accessed from the Rural Assistance Center Web site, Go to http://www.raconline.org/listserv/health/011708.html

    The Challenges section is very important– pointing out the disadvantages of the “usual approach” to working with tribes (and why grassroots science or community-based programs would be better)

    Challenges
    There were several challenges to implementing the trainings in the field. These were mostly created by the very short timeline for the project due to funding restrictions. This meant there was little time to visit in the field with key stakeholders and to further encourage participation. As a result, the identification of the training participants was left almost entirely to the BT Coordinator for each tribe. Given the newness of many of these individuals to a newly created role, not all of these coordinators were well integrated into their local public health system. Some were not based within their health programs, but rather operated out of their emergency management departments. As a result several trainings had limited public health personnel participation.

    Additionally the scope of the project was very broad as it encompassed all five regions within the state, and required cooperation between tribal, county and federal agency counterparts. Fragmentation within each local public health system resulted in some communication breakdowns and last minute requests.

    Other challenges to participation in the training included limited resources available to the tribes. In some cases there were no travel funds for relevant personnel to attend the training session. In other instances, public health emergency preparedness and issues of bioterrorism were not considered priorities particularly compared other competing needs facing under-funded tribal health programs. Subsequently, there were several of the tribes whose BT coordinators and public health personnel were not represented at the training.

    In regards to the curriculum, a “one-size fits all” approach created some challenges to meeting the needs of the audience. Due to the diverse backgrounds, roles and skills sets of the participants it was difficult to find the right pitch for all. For some it was too basic and for others too advanced. The content areas required for each module were very broad and it was difficult to present all the content comfortably in three half-day sessions.

    Small Island Developing States, Fiji and NW Territories, where is YK Delta?

    29 Wednesday Aug 2007

    Posted by mpb in differing views (Thimk), environmental change, Eskimo Guard, preparedness, where is Bethel

    ≈ Leave a comment

    For over a decade I have pointed out the commonality in environmental and cultural issues between the Yukon Kuskokwim delta villages and the small island nations, especially those in the other side of the Pacific basin. Formally, they are called Small Island Developing States. The formal SIDS have established sustainable policies, appropriate technology, and world-class community-based science all of which should be models for Alaska. (for example, see the Fiji Map Server in the sidebar,
    Manuals Available to Assist Communities with Solid Waste Planning and Education
    , and 1918 pandemic in Polynesia and Fiji (small island developing states)

    Alaska state and local governments still don’t seem to understand this. For example, Bethel has no plans for dealing with changing sea levels and loss of tundra ponds. The state until this year, refused to consider the impact of warming climate on village and city infrastructure when permitting landfills. On the other hand, the city manager of Emmonak has been trying for several years to get assistance from state and university to develop appropriate electrical generation technology, based upon the traditional Yukon River fishwheel, to end their dependence on fossil fuels. I applied for a Denali Commission / Rasmuson grant last year, about $10,000 (sic, ten-thousand US dollars, not 10 million) to test a dry sanitation technology developed in “third-world” countries for use in our semi-arid region. The project to improve sanitation and reduce water consumption was deemed outside the agencies’ programmatic interests.

    Canada, fortunately, thinks otherwise.

    TORONTO, Canada (The Catholic Register) – An ice-fisher from Sachs Harbour, Northwest Territories, and a sugar-cane farmer from the Fiji Islands have more in common than some may think.

    Tropical islands in the south Pacific and the polar regions are two areas that stand to face the most immediate and dramatic effects of global warming, said David Hik, a biology professor at the University of Alberta in western Canada.

    Island countries are particularly vulnerable to rising sea levels, while melting ice poses its own set of challenges to the Arctic, said Hik, director of the Canadian chapter for the International Polar Year, a two-year project allowing researchers from 63 countries to collaborate and gain insight into the Arctic and Antarctic.

    “(Global warming) is not isolated by geography, the whole world is connected through the hydrological system,” said Hik. “Changes in the polar region of the Arctic have effects in other parts of the world.” …

    “There’s always been a real recognition of our diocese that research and understanding of the Arctic is important.”

    The diocese sits on the board for the Churchill Northern Studies Centre, a research center for Arctic studies co-founded by former Churchill-Hudson Bay Bishop Omer Robidoux. The center encourages aboriginal people to take courses so there is some understanding between science and local knowledge. [and vice versa, mpb]

    And preparedness isn’t just about “don’t panic; cook your bird”. The Canadian churches seem to understand this. Our local churches have a role in preparedness as well, in addition to that needed for the Guard in the Iraq war.

    I suppose we’d better ask, Where is… Bethel, Canada?

    “What I fear is these changes could be so rapid, the upheaval could be very disruptive for these communities, but that requires being prepared, having good information and sufficient time to plan,” Hik said, explaining the better integrated faith communities are into the social, cultural and spiritual life of the local communities, the better they will be able to help.

    “A strong community that can make good decisions on how to prepare for change and adapt to change will be able to maintain its culture,” he added. Read more […]
