While mental health issues are increasingly gaining attention in Ghana, little is known about the situation among deaf people. This study assessed the mental health care needs of deaf people in Ghana. A descriptive design, consisting of interviews and focus group discussions, was used to collect data from 97 participants. Findings indicated that participants had limited knowledge on mental health issues. Mental health stigma, inaccessible mental health information and exclusion from mental health programmes were the major barriers hindering access to mental health care services. This study bridges the knowledge gap and provides evidence for the implementation of deaf-friendly services.

Design of an Interactive Geo-Location Mobile Application for civil Societies in East Africa

引用

Journal of Software Engineering and Applications 2021年第10期14卷 549-562页

作者： Emil Patrick Judith Leo Shubi Kaijage Department of Communication Science and Engineering Nelson Mandela African Institution of Science and Technology Arusha Tanzania

This paper reports the developed mobile application through the use of advanced technologies such as mobile computing, cloud computing and Global Positioning System (GPS) in order to solve the challenges. The purpose of this study is to find out how the recent advances and mass adoption of ICT by the public can best be leveraged to enhance the performance of civil society organizations (CSOs) in East Africa. The data collection techniques used are through questionnaires, observations and conducting interviews with different stakeholders in the civil society arena i.e., the donors, the CSOs and the people in society that are given a voice by civil societies. In the system development phase, agile development methodology was used. Analysis of the data collected showed that there is a gap in the availability of a single or a centralized platform which can be easily accessed, user-friendly and reliable where different actors can readily get reliable and up-to-date information about the available CSOs they are interested in. To address this problem, an interactive online directory of CSOs has been developed. The platform is mobile based and enables CSOs to register and fill up their current details, thus ensuring that there is always correct and updated information. The platform is equipped with, among other features, a geo-mapping facility which enables users of the system to correctly geo-locate their civil societies of interest on a map view. The results of system evaluation showed that 88.125% of users were satisfied with the system basing on the evaluation criteria.

Trust and Structural Response to Natural Disaster： Some Implications to Government Reform

引用

Journalism and Mass Communication 2017年第10期7卷 567-573页

作者： Isaias S.Sealza Xavier University-Ateneode Cagayan Cagayan de Oro CityPhilippines

The Philippine government is a representative democracy. It has three co-equal branches of government namely the executive, legislative, and judicial, operating on the principle of check and balance. Issues that had riddled top officials of government remained unresolved hitherto; and, the local government units had their own lingering issues. The government structure therefore did not seem to have the mechanism to correct itself. This paper argues that responses to, as well as the ensuing conditions of the survivors of natural disasters, are affected by how much trust the incumbents of relevant government structures have of each other and that actors outside of the government hierarchy can offer avenues for reform. Tropical Storm Washi that hit Cagayan de Oro City could be a case in point. It left thousands of people dead or missing, millions of dollars in damages, and thousands of internally displaced persons （IDPs）. The local government, tasked by the local government code to handle matters related to social welfare, did not seem to have performed as expected. In an apparent lack of trust, donor agencies preferred to course cash and relief items through conduits others than the local government. While the system remained unable to correct itself, the victims of the disaster continued to suffer. civil society organizations and non-government organizations were trying to re-establish people’s trust in the system through legal measures, and hope that electoral reforms could be instituted.

两岸民间组织是推动两岸交流与融合发展的重要载体。蔡英文上台后两岸民间组织交流面临包括制度性障碍、政治性障碍、机制性障碍、社会性障碍以及突发因素影响在内的诸多不利条件。当前，由于民进党当局拒不承认“九二共识”，两岸各领域互动受到较大影响，深化两岸民间组织交流就显得尤为重要。新形势下，应从强化对大陆涉台民间组织的扶持与引导、进一步提升与创新传统交流项目、破解民间组织交流制度性障碍、强化运用新媒体手段等角度着手，推动两岸民间交流行稳致远，为推动两岸融合发展、实现国家统一贡献民间力量。
