Publics in Africa in a Digital Age
Across Africa, digital media are providing scholars with a reason and opportunity for revisiting the question, and the analytical lens, of publics with new vigour and less normative baggage. This book brings together a rich set of empirically grounded analyses of the diverse digital spaces and networks of communication springing up across the Eastern African region. The contributions offer a plural set of reflections on whether and how we can usefully think about these spaces and networks as convening publics, where citizens come together to discuss matters of common interest. The authors make clear the need to unshackle such studies from slavish acceptance of outsiders’ prescriptions on w...

This volume on global women's health provides a broad overview of many conditions that impact women's health, including social and economic inequities and examples of health advocacy.

Salud mental y COVID-19
Aún hoy, la pandemia de la COVID-19 sigue impactando en la salud mental de las personas. En el Perú, por ejemplo, ha hecho que diferentes malestares psicosociales se incrementen, como la exclusión, la discriminación, la corrupción y la violencia, así como también la pobreza y la desigualdad, sobre todo en los grupos vulnerables: las mujeres, las niñas y niños, los adolescentes y los adultos mayores. Por ello, las organizaciones sociales, los colectivos y las comunidades se dieron a la tarea de recuperar conocimientos y experiencias previas para brindar respuestas de acción colectiva, desde la solidaridad y la resistencia, que generaron, a su vez, sentimientos de cuidado y apoyo mutuo. Este libro pone en un primer plano el cuidado de la salud mental desde un enfoque comunitario, ya que solo la participación activa de las personas, las familias y las comunidades en los procesos de atención, pero principalmente de prevención y promoción, puede asegurar bienestar y salud mental. Esta comprensión de la salud mental implica recuperar la dimensión política plena inherente a todo individuo social para actuar sobre sí mismo y sobre su comunidad.
