Social Pension and Development: The Future Prospects of Universal Social Pension On Intergenerational Relations and Rural Development in Tanzania
Dr. Paskas Wagana
Abstract       pdf Full text PDF
Tanzania is experiencing demographic shifts with rising population of older people, majority of whom live in rural areas facing many social and economic challenges. In recent decades, international social policy has applauded social pension as a powerful policy tool in fighting against impoverishment among older generations. This article uses examples of family solidarity in rural areas in Tanzania to speculate how universal social pension will benefit family relations and foster rural development. The study is based on the analysis of 2012 data from a descriptive cross-sectional study, involving older people aged 60+ (n=968) in two rural districts in Mwanza region in Tanzania, to determine the potential effects of universal social pension on both family solidarity and development of rural areas. The analysis also incorporates results from SAUT Survey 2019 data (n=393) conducted in three regions of Tanzania: Arusha, Mtwara, and Mwanza. The results indicate that the family structure in which older people live has strong intergenerational family solidarity. Universal social pension income, which is associated with social and economic development, is significant in reducing poverty and inequalities, promoting health, nutrition, agriculture, and local markets that improve rural development.

Rajaa NADIFI, Hind SABOUR EL ALAOUI
Abstract       pdf Full text PDF

This article addresses the issue of mixed/non-mixed schools at school and focuses in particular on the reality of Moroccan schools. The objective of this study is to analyze the perceptions of students, teachers and parents of gender diversity in the school environment. A qualitative and quantitative survey carried out in a Moroccan public sector college allows us to glimpse the process of education and otherness. We wonder about the mechanisms of gender diversity and whether it is formal diversity or real non-mixity. Our investigation sought to verify whether the gender diversity practiced in Morocco is truly based on an inclusive approach which contributes to equality between students or if it only consists of a facade of diversity.

Apart from their direct role inhealthcare provision, it is important to explore the potential social and political significance of medical recordsespecially in the context of widening access to patients of their medical records. Their primary role as part ofcommunicating and plan patient care from the compilation of pertinent facts of a patient's life and healthhistory, render medical records as a wealthy source of information that can be generated outside direct careprovision. In this review, the evolution of the roles of medical records are discussed beyond their initial role inthe planning and coordination of care between healthcare providers.

Abstract       pdf Full text PDF

Technological developments have led a decline in the usage and knowledge of the Manggaraian language, one among many of Indonesian native languages. This research aims to address the aforemtioned issue by developing a web-based application that functions as a translator, facilitating communication with the Manggaraian people. The application employs the Sequential Search Algorithm for word search with a total vocabulary of 500 words sourced from the Manggarai Indonesian dictionary. The results demonstrate the application's effectiveness in translating words and sentences, allowing users to input text into the designated textbox and viewing the translated output in another textbox. Detailed translation information is also provided for an enhanced comprehension. The research emphasizes the importance of preserving the Manggaraian language, urging the younger of Manggarai generation to actively partake in its preservation to safeguard their native heritage. Furthermore, the implementation of the Sequential Search Algorithm proves to be practical and effective in the context of word search.
