The Situation of Violence of Girls and Adolescents in Guatemala”
Alternative Report on the Convention on the Rights of the Child “THE SITUATION OF VIOLENCE OF GIRLS AND ADOLESCENTS IN GUATEMALA” 1 INTRODUCTION 1. Asociación Red de Jóvenes para la Incidencia Política –INCIDEJOVEN- (The Youth Network for Political Advocacy), as a member of Red Latinoamericana y Caribeña de Jóvenes por los Derechos Sexuales (The Latin American and Caribbean Youth Network for Sexual Rights)–RedLAC-, in association with Asociación Guatemalteca de Humanistas Seculares, ONG (The Guatemalan Association of Secular Humanists), who work for the promotion and defense of sexual and reproductive rights of adolescents and young people and for the respect of the secularity of the State in Guatemala, present the following report in the framework of the 77th period of meetings of the Committee on the Rights of the Child in order to demonstrate the conditions of violence in which the girls and adolescent women of Guatemala live in. This report seeks to analyse the various manifestations of this violence, and the lack of an efficient response by the State to address structural problems, which have led to tragedies, such as the events of the children's home; Hogar Virgen de la Asunción. Moreover, it will emphasize the existing link between the violence and forced pregnancies and forced maternities and the lack of access to Comprehensive Sexuality Education (CSE). 2. Girls and adolescent women in Guatemala are constantly facing violence, in its various manifestations: physical, sexual, psychological, economic, structural and symbolic violence -

Any Honest Conversation About Youth Must Address the Challenges That
Any honest conversation about youth must address the challenges that young people and adult allies face when they work to engage children and youth throughout our communities. By their very existence, youth programs are made to respond to these challenges; ignoring them is not being honest about the purpose of youth programs. Racism, sexism, classism, homophobia… the list of challenges facing young people is enormous. However, one of the core challenges is a common experience that all people face early in their lives. That challenge is discrimination against children and youth. Discrimination occurs anytime one thing is chosen before something else. That is often a good thing – otherwise, why wouldn’t we all steal our food instead of growing it or buying it? We all discriminate everyday. However, discrimination often excludes people because of false bias or prejudice. Discrimination against children and youth is caused by the bias adults have for other adults that causes them to discriminate against young people. Bias for adults is called adultism. When something is based on adultism, it is called adultcentrism.While adultism is sometimes appropriate, adultcentrism is often inappropriate. Compulsory education can force students to disengage from the love of learning. Youth development programs can force youth to disconnect from adults. Almost every activity that is for young people is decided upon, developed, assessed and redeveloped without young people. That is adultcentrism. Language, programs, teaching styles, and all relationships between young people and adults are adultcentric. The most “youth-friendly” adults are often adultist, assuming that youth need them – which, while it may be true, is still centered on adult perspectives. -

Homeplaces and Spaces: Black and Brown Feminists and Girlhood Geographies of Agency
HOMEPLACES AND SPACES: BLACK AND BROWN FEMINISTS AND GIRLHOOD GEOGRAPHIES OF AGENCY Elizabeth Gale Greenlee A dissertation submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of English and Comparative Literature. Chapel Hill 2019 Approved by: Laura Halperin María DeGuzmán James W. Coleman Daniel Anderson Minrose Gwin Jennifer Ho © 2019 Elizabeth Gale Greenlee ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Elizabeth Gale Greenlee: Homeplaces and Spaces: Black and Brown Feminists and Girlhood Geographies of Agency (Under the direction of Laura Halperin and María DeGuzmán) During the late 20th and early 21st centuries, noted Chicana feminists such Gloria Anzaldúa and Pat Mora, as well as Black feminists like Octavia Butler and bell hooks frequently turned to children’s literature or youth-centric literature as a means to confront social injustice in American society. My dissertation considers this literary investment in Black and Brown girlhoods by examining feminist-authored children’s picture books, middle-grade and youth- centric literary novels featuring girl protagonists. Specifically, I examine how Black, Chicana and Mexican American feminist writers consistently render girlhood in relation to geography. Not limiting my investigation to geopolitical bodies, I pay particular attention to everyday spatial terrains such as the girls’ homes, schools, community centers, and playgrounds. These seemingly ordinary spaces of girlhood merge public and private and constitute key sites for nation building. They also provide fertile ground for the development of Black and Brown girl spatial citizenship: girl-centered, critical vantage points from which readers may view operations of power and privilege. -
Comparison of Family Centered Care with Family Integrated Care and Mobile Technology (Mficare) on Preterm Infant and Family Outc
Franck et al. BMC Pediatrics (2019) 19:469 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12887-019-1838-3 STUDY PROTOCOL Open Access Comparison of family centered care with family integrated care and mobile technology (mFICare) on preterm infant and family outcomes: a multi-site quasi- experimental clinical trial protocol Linda S. Franck1* , Rebecca M. Kriz1, Robin Bisgaard2, Diana M. Cormier3, Priscilla Joe4, Pamela S. Miller5, Jae H. Kim6, Carol Lin7 and Yao Sun2 Abstract Background: Family Centered Care (FCC) has been widely adopted as the framework for caring for infants in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) but it is not uniformly defined or practiced, making it difficult to determine impact. Previous studies have shown that implementing the Family Integrated Care (FICare) intervention program for preterm infants in the NICU setting leads to significant improvements in infant and family outcomes. Further research is warranted to determine feasibility, acceptability and differential impact of FICare in the US context. The addition of a mobile application (app) may be effective in providing supplemental support for parent participation in the FICare program and provide detailed data on program component uptake and outcomes. Methods: This exploratory multi-site quasi-experimental study will compare usual FCC with mobile enhanced FICare (mFICare) on growth and clinical outcomes of preterm infants born at or before 33 weeks gestational age, as well as the stress, competence and self-efficacy of their parents. The feasibility and acceptability of using mobile technology to gather data about parent involvement in the care of preterm infants receiving FCC or mFICare as well as of the mFICare intervention will be evaluated (Aim 1). -
