THE ASPECTS OF ENVIRONMENTAL LAW ENFORCEMENT IN INDONESIA AND THE IMPLEMENTATION OF INTERNATIONAL AGREEMENTS IN THE ENVIRONMENTAL FIELD IN INDONESIA
Authors: Hasyim Yonani , Aprita Serlika
Published: January 2022

Law enforcement is the process of enforcing or trying to implement legal norms as guides for traffic or legal relations in social and state life. In the environmental law enforcement system in Indonesia, there are three legal aspects described in the Environmental Protection and Management Act (UUPPLH), namely administrative law, civil law, and criminal law aspects. Where each aspect's law enforcement and law enforcement processes are distinct. The research method used was normative legal research. One component of environmental law enforcement is the use of civil law in environmental management. In the Environmental Protection and Management Act (UUPPLH) the process of enforcing environmental law through civil procedures is regulated in Chapter XIII Articles 84 to 93. In order to provide legal clarity in law enforcement, efforts are being made to solve environmental problems that emerge in Indonesia. Environmental law enforcement is an endeavor to ensure that regulations and requirements in general and specific legal provisions are followed and implemented through administrative, civil, and criminal supervision and enforcement. With the adoption of the first environmental rules, namely Law Number 4 of 1982 Concerning Basic Provisions for Environmental Management (UUKPPLH), government policy frameworks in implementing environmental law were actualized. Then, it was later replaced by Law Number 23 of 1997 concerning Environmental Management (UUPLH), which was subsequently replaced by Law Number 32 of 2009 concerning Environmental Protection and Management (UUPPLH) (Tude Trisnajaya, 2013: 2). The research method used in this study was normative juridical research, which means it was done with an eye on the laws, rules, and court decisions that were relevant to the topic.

ASSIMILATION AS AN EFFORT TO OVERCOME THE SPREAD OF CORONA VIRUS ACCORDING TO MINISTER OF LAW AND HUMAN RIGHTS REGULATION NO.24 OF 2021
Authors: Safithri Hijriyana , Lubis Ramiah
Published: January 2022

The corona virus has become a global epidemic since the last two years, and Indonesia is also included in the country affected by this corona virus outbreak, especially in 2021 the corona virus outbreak is increasing, taking so many victims. Therefore, the Ministry of Law and Human Rights has extended the policy of granting assimilation rights at home for prisoners and children to reduce the density of prisoners in prisons, state detention centers and the Special Child Development Institute (LPKA). The problem is for prisoners, what are the conditions that must be met to obtain assimilation at home and what if the prisoners who have received assimilation at home commit crimes again during the assimilation period at home. The method used in this paper is a qualitative research method. That is by collecting legal materials by reading, quoting, taking notes, and studying reading materials related to research problems, especially the Regulation of the Minister of Law and Human Rights no. 24 of 2021 amendments to Ministerial Regulation Number 32 of 2020 concerning Conditions and Procedures for Granting Assimilation, Conditional Release, Leave Before Release, and Conditional Leave for Convicts and Children in the Context of Prevention and Control of the Spread of Covid-19. The data that has been collected is stated in the form of a description. The data analysis used in this research is descriptive qualitative. Prisoners will obtain assimilation if they have met the requirements contained in Article 11 and Article 45 of the Regulation of the Minister of Law and Human Rights No. 24 of 2021 and if the prisoner commits a crime while carrying out assimilation at home, he will be subject to a heavier sentence than before.
A Judicialização da Saúde no Ordenamento Jurídico Brasileiro no Contexto da Pandemia COVID-19
Authors: Leão Simone Letícia Severo e Sousa Dabés
Published: January 2022

A saúde está inserida no rol dos direitos sociais fundamentais, configurando um sustentáculo para a própria vida, condição sine qua non para a dignidade. A Constituição Federal de 1988 (CF/88) determina que a saúde é um direito de todos, motivo pelo qual o Sistema Único de Saúde (SUS) deve atender toda a coletividade. No atual contexto da pandemia COVID-19 há esforços no mundo inteiro para salvar vidas. Diante da precariedade do sistema público de saúde, aliada ao insuficiente fornecimento de medicamentos gratuitos, tratamentos médicos, procedimentos cirúrgicos, transferência hospitalar e acesso a Unidades de Tratamento Intensivo – UTIs, surge o nascimento do fenômeno “judicialização da saúde”, para determinar que o ente público cumpra com determinada prestação na área da saúde. O presente artigo tem como objetivo geral discorrer acerca dos aspectos inerentes à saúde no Brasil, destacando as mais novas decisões sob a ótica dos tribunais superiores no contexto da pandemia COVID-19, verificando os resultados de tais decisões e as contribuições que elas trazem para uma nova visão na busca do bem-estar social. Buscam-se políticas públicas voltadas para a prevenção da doença, no intuito de se alcançar um direito à saúde mais justo e universal. Para tanto, é empregada a metodologia do tipo exploratória, de cunho qualitativo, com análise jurisprudencial conjugada com revisão bibliográfica.
The 2008 Agreement Between the Holy See and Brazil on the Juridical Statute of the Catholic Church in Brazil in the Eyes of the Brazilian Superior Courts
Authors: Szazi Eduardo
Published: January 2022

In 2008, Brazil and the Holy See entered into an Agreement on the Juridical Statute of the Catholic Church and its Ecclesiastical Institutions in Brazil (the “Agreement”). The Agreement was approved by the Brazilian Congress by Legislative Decree 698 on October 7, 2009 and entered into force in the international sphere on December 10, 2009. On February 11, 2010, by Presidential Decree 7.107, it entered into force in the domestic sphere. The purpose of this essay is assessing the consistency of the Agreement with the State laicity enshrined in the 1988 Brazilian Constitution. The hypothesis is the validity of the Agreement due to the special status of the Holy See in International Law. The methodology of study consisted in describing the historical background of the relationship between State and Church in Brazil as a preamble for surveying cases which have dealt with the 2008 Agreement and the corresponding decisions at the Brazilian Superior Courts. As a result, we have found out that the Brazilian Judiciary sustained the compatibility of the Agreement with the laicity of the Brazilian State enshrined in its 1988 Constitution in two leading cases that addressed, respectively, the possibility of confirmation, by Brazilian Courts, of ecclesiastical declarations of nullity issued by marriage tribunals under the Code of Cannon Law, and the possibility of confessional classes in public schools. Both possibilities were eventually upheld by Brazilian Superior Courts in landmark rulings on the status of the Holy See in the Brazilian practice of international law.
Developing institutional strategies to support failing/failed part-time students in higher education
Authors: Whitehead Graham
Published: January 2022

This study considers the significance of institutional strategy in supporting failing/failed part-time students in higher education, particularly at a time of such significant changes to funding ideologies in western cultures, and offers recommendations to improve student retention. Building on previous studies by Simpson (2003), Callender et al (2006) the tracking of three cohorts of part-time students on a counselling programme highlights ‘vulnerable’ candidates and explores specific strategies to respond to the failing/failed student. Employing a mixed-methodological approach consisting of an initial online questionnaire, semi-structured interviews for selected participants and the tracking the academic results of failing/failed students, ethical consideration is given to the nature of the programme (counselling), gender-ratios and the timing of the enquiry (post-completion or termination of studies). The enquiry highlights the challenges for practice educators and field instructors in supporting such students. In order to increase the retention of part-time students, the study also examines possible factors likely to minimise part-time student attrition. For the purposes of this study the term ‘vulnerable’ is defined as a student who is likely to leave the course before completion i.e. a failing/failed student.
You talkin’ to me?
Authors: Irwin Mark , McGlade Anne
Published: January 2022

This article reflects a piece of research conducted with final year social work students and practice teachers within one health and social care trust in Northern Ireland. The work focused on the assessment of students via direct observations and aimed to capture the views, perceptions and experiences of students and practice teachers within this process.The findings highlighted the complexity of the direct observation process and the need for effective communication as a central theme. One finding examined the issue of intervention and participation by a practice teacher within an observation. The outcome challenges current thinking as there was a high level of support for the use of professional discretion to intervene by practice teachers during an observation. The key components of preparation, agreeing goals, frameworks used and practice teacher intervention were dominated by the need for effective communication.
Developing the skills to support nursing and midwifery students with specific learning differences in practice
Authors: Black Sharon , Baillie Lesley , Kane Claire
Published: January 2022

The literature highlights the difficulties that those supporting students with a specific learning difference (SpLD) in practice may have and calls for more education of practice mentors. As a result of concerns locally, nursing and midwifery students who have a SpLD were interviewed to recount their practice experiences. Short films were made from these stories which formed the basis for developing a learning resource to educate novice mentors and develop their skills to support and assess students with SpLDs appropriately. The learning resource was piloted and evaluated, to investigate the effect the learning resource had on novice mentors’ knowledge about SpLDs and their attitudes, feelings and skills. The learning resource was delivered to 72 novice mentors on a mentorship preparation course. Sixty-one completed pre and post session questionnaires and participated in a world café exercise to evaluate the resource. The evaluation results indicated that the resource had a positive effect on novice mentors’ knowledge, skills and attitudes towards students with a SpLD.

The paper will discuss from a service user/carer perspective the possible implications and ramifications that ‘failing to fail’ students has on service users and carers. We will start by briefly contextualising the issue drawing on the work of Rutkowski (2007), Dudek et al. (2005), Duffy (2003) and Cleland et al. (2008) and other authors who have contributed to the topic. We expand the debate from the service user and carer perspective examining likely causes and determinants and then move on to discussing the possible impact of this practice on those who are cared for.This paper will provide debate and discussion from a unique perspective being written by those who have lived experience of care delivered by students and qualified practitioners from the nursing and social work professions.
Surveillance and silence
Authors: Schaub Jason , Dalrymple Roger
Published: January 2022

Studies to date have highlighted a number of key factors in the assessment of difficult social work placements including the need for adequate professional formation; communication; the changing social work education framework; and the influence of the wider social work context. Factors less widely examined are the perceptions of some practice educators that the assessment of placement students operates in a wider context of surveillance and scrutiny by a range of stakeholders. We argue that such perceptions of surveillance can cause a discursive anxiety for practice educators and can inhibit key developmental conversations between assessor and student. Drawing on interviews with ten practice educators, we examine the tendency of practice educators reflecting on a failed placement to rehearse or even enact those key developmental conversations post hoc, broaching previously unstated or tacit aspects of the placement experience. We argue for the need to create a safe discursive space for these conversations to take place in situ during the challenging placement and suggest that a diminution in perceptions of surveillance and enhanced outcomes for students and practice educators will result.
The practice educator as museum guide, art therapist or exhibition curator
Authors: Couchman Wendy , Hafford-Letchfield Trish , Leonard Kate
Published: January 2022

Abstract: The use of arts-based approaches in professional education in health and social care has gathered momentum in the last decade and their effectiveness has been well documented. There are helpful models in the education literature that begin to explain how these creative methods work in learning and practice, and that assert the significance of an emotional or affective level of learning. However, the process remains elusive, almost a ‘given’. A more cross-disciplinary analysis of affective learning is needed to guide arts-based methods and more robust evaluation of their use in health and social care education and practice. This paper identifies different roles that can be taken by the practice educator with a review of those theoretical models of affective learning that underpin them to help understand how and why arts-based approaches are effective.
Concepts of justice and the non-traditional placement
Authors: Pollard Nick
Published: January 2022

This paper is based on a presentation given at the 10th International Conference on Practice Teaching and Field Education in Health and Social Work in April 2014. Occupational Therapy student non-traditional placements are an important element of developing autonomous practitioner skills. This paper considers the changes which have led to an increase in the use of non-traditional placements, and the significance of their basis in the third sector for a profession with origins in social justice and reform in the light of present health and social inequalities. It considers the advantages these placements bring to students and their universities, but also argues that the benefits to all stakeholders, including third sector organisations and their clients are critically reviewed.
The dialectics of change in social work education
Authors: Simpson Graeme , Murr Ani
Published: January 2022

The aim of this paper is to explore the dialectics of change in social work education. Beginning with a brief outline of the dialectic, it acknowledges the contested nature of social work, and identifies historical tensions between major stakeholders (government, regulators, employers, academics and educators). It examines inherent contradictions in the understanding of ‘good’ social work in the conflict over the social work curriculum, and in approaches to the assessment of practice at institutional and individual levels. Significant disconnections between stakeholders identified through the social work degree are described and the potential for reconnection through the reform process in England is recognized. The paper concludes by questioning whether such reconnection (synthesis) is possible in the context of divisive historical tensions (thesis and anti-thesis) and suggesting where new forms of connectivity may emerge
Sustaining a good model of practice education in challenging times
Authors: Reed Jackie , Walsh Eileen , Lyons Rena
Published: January 2022

The Bacon Report (2001) recommended an increase in the numbers of occupational therapists, physiotherapists, and speech and language therapists in Ireland. As a result four new programmes were introduced in 2003. These new programmes, along with the existing programmes, resulted in a significant increase in placement requirements, against a backdrop of public service reform and a challenging economic environment. A National Steering Group for Practice Education was established to oversee the development and implementation of a national model of practice education. Three key principles underpinned the development and implementation of this model i.e., the use of an organisational development approach, promotion of an interprofessional approach, and innovative models for delivering practice education. First, the use of an organisational development approach involved key stakeholders in all aspects of the process, thus promoting ownership and collaborative problem-solving.Second, the use of an interprofessional approach promoted collaborative working and the achievement of quality outcomes within relatively short time-frames. Third, the exploration of innovative models of placement delivery has been helpful in relation to increasing placement capacity. As well as benefitting students, some of these models have been positive for patients. The learning from these experiences may be useful for other health and social care professions.
Keeping MANDELA alive: A qualitative evaluation of the MANDELA supervision framework four years on
Authors: Tedam Prospera , Munowenyu Millicent
Published: January 2022

Four years after the development of the MANDELA model by Prospera Tedam, an independent evaluation of its effectiveness was conducted in 2014 with 45 social work students and 6 practice educators. The framework was incorporated into the University of Northampton (UN) Social Work Practice Learning Handbook as a recommended practice placement supervision tool for use by students and practice educators. This article summarises the process, findings and recommendations arising from the evaluation. The project sought to evidence the justification for the model’s continued use in social work practice placements. Though the intended audience for this publication are primarily social work students and practice educators in practice placement settings, the model’s underpinning ethos as a strengths based anti-oppressive tool and its unique attributes as a framework that proactively promotes and permits in-depths discussions on pertinent issues of difference, life experiences, individuality and diversity would be of benefit to any university lecturer and other stake holders in the fields of health and social care. The model can also be adapted and used in field education in countries such as Australia, New Zealand, Canada, South Africa and the USA and in other countries where cultural and ethnic diversity in higher education is resulting in differential experiences and outcomes for students from minority backgrounds.
Motivational interviewing and social work education: The power of relationship based practice
Authors: Dix Heidi
Published: January 2022

Motivational interviewing is increasingly recognised as an effective intervention within health and social care settings. It has an established evidence base which appeals to commissioners of services in this time of austerity and also has links with relationship-based practice which has seen a resurgence in the literature in recent years. This article outlines the key principles of motivational interviewing and the influences that can assist behavioural change and explores how this approach can be transferred to practice education. It suggests that motivational interviewing, which is founded on principles of person centred and partnership working, can be utilised by both health and social workers who operate as practice educators. In order accurately to assess the knowledge and skills of students in accordance with the requirements of the relevant professional body, practice educators need effectively to engage with students. This article suggests that adhering to the ‘spirit’ of motivational interviewing and adopting some of the tools and techniques which form the basis of this approach, can assist practice educators to develop effective relationships with students. The principles and philosophy of motivational interviewing in supervision sessions can assist practice educators to develop student confidence, self-awareness and if necessary engage in a process of change.
Improving professionalism through reflection and discourse in communities of practice: The key situations in social work model and project
Authors: Staempfli Adi , Tov Eva , Kunz Regula , Tschopp Domink , Eugster Stamm Stefan
Published: January 2022

Professional social work under conditions of uncertainty and complexity requires integration of various forms of knowledge, practice and values and entails managing emotions skilfully to make ethical professional judgements. The article discusses these challenges for social work(ers) and introduces the key situation in social work model. It consists of a systematic reflection process of typical, reoccurring practice situations in communities of practice (CoPs). Situated knowledge, memorised in relation to situations is dominant and is more easily accessed in practice. Situational knowledge, co-produced in reflections on key situations, is documented and shared on a virtual platform. Therefore, the model offers a concept for situational knowledge management and for discursive examination in professional and scientific communities. In the #keysituation project a platform was constructed and 10 CoPs with 35 active members from practice and academia quality assure its content. Based on the literature nine design principles for CoPs are suggested. The authors describe how these were applied. Success and failure depends on balancing three constituent aspects of CoPs: domain, community and practice. The model offers a flexible approach to continuous professional development (CPD), which fosters a learning culture essential to overcome managerial, technocratic approaches so prevalent in social work organisations.
Building a safe and confident future: Social work reform in England and late modernity
Authors: Higgins Martyn
Published: January 2022

Since 2009 social work has undergone significant changes. However, it remains unclear whether these reforms have reached a conclusion. There appears to exist a state of continuous reform, which may impede the opportunity to embed reform into social work education and practice. This paper aims to apply the theoretical model of late modernity to social work in England. Using this approach may offer a way to understand social work reforms as a feature of contemporary societies rather than a situation unique to English social work. The paper applies late modern thinking on risk, pedagogy and ambivalence to make sense of the change process in social work. Finally, a proposal to engage critically with social work reform is sketched out. The key message of this paper is that social work reform in England can be seen as a response to the dilemmas of late modern society. It attempts to eliminate risk in social work education and practice. However, this goal is doomed to failure and social work reform can be seen as stuck within a cycle of reform and change.Keywords: social work reform, late modernity, risk, pedagogy, ambivalence, irony

The practice educator lens: Bringing student practice into focus using the direct observation
Authors: Edmonds Chrissie
Published: January 2022

This paper is based on the presentation given at the 11th International Conference in Belfast (April 2016). The article explores the experience of the direct observation from the practice educator perspective with students undertaking practice placements as part of the pre-qualifying programmes for Social Work within England. It seeks to explore some of the issues present within the direct observation as a tool ‘for’ and ‘of’ assessment and how fundamental it can be to ascertain competence within a real experience for students working with service users. It raises the question of what is a ‘good enough’ direct observation from a service user perspective and how this informs the recommendation of a pass of the practice placement. It proposes that there are some latent challenges in setting a benchmark within the direct observation however doing so would allow a clearer focus on the assessment process.Keywords: practice education; direct observation; placements; assessment; service users
The Practice Pyramid: A model for integrating social work values, theory and practice
Authors: Gordon Jean , Mackay Gillian
Published: January 2022

The Practice Pyramid is a learning tool that supports social work students’ ability to integrate their understanding of personal and professional values, theory and practice during field placements. Although it has been used by practice educators in Scotland for over 20 years, it is not well known elsewhere and has yet to be evaluated. This paper, written by a practice educator and a student social worker, describes the Practice Pyramid and provides a case example to illustrate how it contributed to one student’s learning during a practice placement. Four factors that appear to contribute to its success are proposed: its model of pedagogy, the visual and accessible nature of the tool, flexibility and the support it gives to collaborative learning processes. It is suggested that the Practice Pyramid may usefully support learning in a range of social work and non social work contexts, and would benefit from more extensive evaluation of its role in supporting practice - theory integration.Keywords: Practice Pyamid; social work students; field placements; Scotland; collaborative learning
What influences practice educators in determining appropriate learning opportunities for social work students on their final practice learning placement?
Authors: Bates Claire
Published: January 2022

Abstract: Within social work education in the UK practice education has been subject to regular and substantive change and continues to have the potential to be fragmented as a result of practice learning taking place in a variety of organisations and settings as well as students having on site and off site practice educators. In this pilot research study individual semi structured interviews were used to gather data from 6 experienced practice educators who supervised students across both the statutory and voluntary sector, including those practicing independently as ‘off site’, to establish what influences practice educators when determining appropriate learning opportunities for social work students on their final placement. Findings indicated that practice educators draw on a variety of influences to determine appropriate learning opportunities for final year social work students, not relying on a single tool or mechanism. The research was undertaken in order to hear the voice of Practice educators and develop a better understanding of the process of supervising students on placement and to work towards enhancing future practice.Keywords: practice education; practice educator; social work education; placements; pcf; learning opportunities

Social distancing and social work field placements
Authors: Tedam Prospera
Published: January 2022

The impact of the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic on social work practice placements around the world and in the United Arab Emirates is of concern to students, social work educators and service users. In this practice note, I focus on the impact of the interruption to social work practice learning for students at  the United Arab Emirates University and reflect on the introduction of 'social distancing', a health and safety strategy aimed at reducing the likelihood of the spread of the coronavirus. I propose ways in which students in school placements can continue to develop their social work knowledge and skills ‘from a distance’ and while physically absent from their practice learning settings
Using Web 2.0 applications by teaching staff in health care institutions' field training
Authors: Ibrahim Tamer Mohamed Abdelghani
Published: January 2022

The study aimed to study the current use of Web 2.0 applications such as Wiki, Blogs, Facebook, Wikipedia by teaching staff in field training at health care institutions, in Saudi Arabia by identifying the most widely used web applications. The study also aimed to identify the obstacles of using Web 2.0 applications in field training at health care institutions. A descriptive approach was used in this research. The four-dimensional study tools were applied to 46 teaching staff social work, who are the training supervisors at health care institutions. The results indicated that the most common Web 2.0 application used by teaching staff in field training at health care institutions is the application of Wikipedia, whilst many obstacles were found to the use of  Web 2.0 applications in field training at health care institutions.  These included the many teaching hours per week by teaching staff social work, students' weakness in the use of the English language, the lack of periodic maintenance for computers and Internet connection at colleges, and the lack of exchanging experiences and knowledge between universities regarding using Web 2.0 applications in education. Based on these results, recommendations were made for increasing teaching staff ' awareness of the importance of using Web 2.0 applications when teaching social work.
Bridging the Gap between Research and Practice: A Discussion about How to Integrate Evidence-Based Interventions in Clinical Practice Through Education
Authors: Flaherty Hanni
Published: January 2022

The benefits of incorporating evidence-based interventions (EBI) in mental health settings are well documented. However, many mental health settings continue not to adopt or implement evidence-based interventions despite the benefits EBIs offer providers. This formula creates a gap between research and practice, which needs to be addressed. Evidence-based practice and interventions are defined, and facilitating factors are described in detail and is followed by a clinical case example to provide further insight. Implications for social work education, research, and practice are also discussed. The chasm between research and practice, will begin to close as practitioners’ concerns are addressed through education.
Learning Social Work through Role Play: Developing More Confident and Capable Social Workers
Authors: Banach Mary , Rataj Alison , Ralph Michael , Allosso Lucia
Published: January 2022

Role-plays are a staple teaching tool in social work classes that help students apply practice skills.  Various uses of role-plays have been discussed in social work literature.  Intensive simulated role-plays in which students practice skills over a series of weeks alternately acting as a social worker and a client, offers an opportunity to practice skills in greater depth.  This small-scale research study examines undergraduate students’ perceived improvement of their interviewing skills through participation in an intensive simulation. Qualitative data were collected through surveys administered over three years. Results suggest that students learned by observing, receiving immediate feedback, and acting as a social worker. Findings also indicate that students valued the experience and felt it prepared them for practice with clients. Implications for teaching and undergraduate social work programs are discussed.
Virtue epistemology and epistemic humility: national and international implications for social work
Authors: Higgins Martyn
Published: January 2022

This paper adopts an original approach to social work by using virtue epistemology to analyse critically contemporary social work knowledge and practice. There is an epistemic danger that social workers are using knowledge in an overconfident and uncritical way.  It is argued that this epistemic confidence is linked to the narrow and at times authoritarian practices of contemporary social work. The paper reviews the concept of virtue ethics and connects it to epistemology and the virtues needed to apply knowledge ethically. Epistemic humility is seen as a key epistemological virtue in social work and its implications for social work nationally and internationally are considered. The key message of this paper is that virtue epistemology provides a way to explore how we can be before we decide what to do
An evaluation of a unified practice assessment document for student nurses: Students’, mentors’ and academics’ views and experiences
Authors: Baillie Lesley , Fish Jane
Published: January 2022

Assessment of students’ performance in practice is an essential part of a health and social care education programme. In the United Kingdom, most nursing practice assessment documentation is specific to each university, leading to concerns about consistency. This paper’s aim is to present the development and evaluation of a unified practice assessment document. Nine London universities worked collaboratively with stakeholders to develop a pan-London practice assessment document, which aimed to increase consistency and quality of practice assessment. The evaluation aimed to investigate the views of nursing students, mentors and academics regarding implementation and use of the document in practice. Focus groups were conducted with students (n=46 in 6 groups), mentors (n=46 in 7 groups) and academic staff (n=42 in 6 groups) and the data were analysed using the framework approach. Four themes are presented: a robust and consistent approach; assessing professional values; essential skills acquisition; service user involvement. The new document was considered to foster consistency, reduce confusion and workload for mentors, and promote standardisation for practice assessment of student nurses across London.

Introduction: Thyroid carcinoma is rare in children and young adults. Most of management guidelines are based in data from adult population. Several controversies remain regarding the aggressiveness of clinical presentation and therapeutic approach.Objective: To evaluate all differentiated thyroid carcinoma patients with less than 20 years-old at presentation reflecting the experience of our unit in relation to diagnosis, treatment and follow-up of this clinical entity.Material and Methods: This is a retrospective review of clinical records of all children and young adults followed at Oncology Consultation of Department of Endocrinology of Centro Hospitalar e Universitário de Coimbra between 1996 and 2012.Results: Nineteen patients with mean age of 16 years old were followed, 13 girls and 6 boys. None of the patients had previous neck irradiation. A palpable cervical mass was the presenting complaint in 84.6%. FNA was performed in 15 patients and was diagnostic or suspicious of malignancy in 71.4%. Total thyroidectomy was performed in 18 cases (94.7%). Papillary carcinoma was identified in all. Vascular invasion and multicentry occurred in 21.1%. Mean tumor size was 2.5cm. Cervical lymph node involvement was diagnosed in 31.6% and distant metastases in 5.2%. The majority of patients (18 in 19) were classified as stage I disease. All patients received thyroxine suppressive therapy and postoperative radioiodine ablation was given to 84.2% (mean dose 85.7mCi). During mean follow-upof almost 6 years, 16 patients remain disease free.Conclusion: In our series, cervical lymph node and distant metastases rates were similar to that found in adult population. Overall prognosis was very good.

Durante a gravidez ocorrem alterações imunológicas, metabólicas, hormonais e vasculares que podem causar alterações cutâneas específicas. A nomenclatura e classificação das dermatoses específicas da gravidez têm sofrido alterações ao longo dos anos, em parte devido aos avanços na descoberta da patogénese destas dermatoses. São actualmente consideradas dermatoses específicas da gravidez: penfigóide gestacional, erupção polimorfa da gravidez, colestase intra-hepática da gravidez e erupção atópica da gravidez. O diagnóstico atempado e tratamento direcionado são essenciais para prevenir complicações que, apesar de raras, podem estarassociadas a significativa comorbilidade materno-fetal.

A psoríase é uma doença inflamatória sistémica crónica, frequente, associada a várias comorbilidades, destacando-se a obesidade, a hipertensão arterial, a diabetes, a dislipidemia e síndrome metabólico. Adicionalmente associa-se também a aumento do risco de doença cardiovascular – enfarte agudo do miocárdio e acidente vascular cerebral. A inflamação sistémica crónica presente na psoríase tem sido sugerida como um factor de risco independente para estas comorbilidades e para o aparecimento de aterosclerose precoce. Esta revisão das várias comorbilidades cardio-metabólicas e do risco de doença cardiovascular associado à psoríase tem como objectivopromover o conhecimento e alertar os clínicos para a necessidade de rastreio, monitorização e tratamento dos factores de risco de doença cardiovascular nestes doentes.

Introdução: Foram descritas várias doenças cutâneas em doentes transplantados, em relação com a terapêutica imunossupressora instituída. Pretendemos caracterizar o espectro clínico das patologias dermatológicas e comparar os diagnósticos entre os doentes transplantados hepáticos e os doentes transplantados renais.Material e Métodos: Estudo descritivo e retrospectivo através da consulta de processos clínicos de todos os doentes submetidos a transplante hepático ou renal entre 2000 - 2010 referenciados à Consulta de Dermatologia e Venereologia.Resultados: Observámos 319 doentes transplantados (23,5%) e apurámos 410 diagnósticos (230 na sub-população com transplante hepático e 180 na sub-população com transplante renal), divididos em quatro grupos: 1) infecções cutâneas; 2) cancro cutâneo ou lesões precursoras; 3) manifestações cutâneas relacionadas com efeitos secundários de fármacos; 4) outras patologias dermatológicas não iatrogénicas. As infecções cutâneas foram as mais observadas (42,2%), em média 32,7 meses após o transplante. Este grupo incluiu 20,5% de infecções fúngicas, 12,7% virais e 8,5% bacterianas. Identificámos patologia tumoral e lesões precursoras em 11,7% dos casos, em média 44,8 meses após o transplante e assumindo maior importância na sub-população com transplante renal (20,6%vs 4,8% nos transplantados hepáticos; P < 0,001). Os transplantados renais apresentaram predomínio de carcinomas espinocelulares (CEC) sobre os casos de carcinomas basocelulares (CBC), numa razão CEC:CBC de 1,3:1 mas nos transplantados hepáticos verificou- se uma razão CBC: carcinomas de 3,5:1. Ocorreram efeitos secundários de fármacos em 10,5% dos casos e outras patologiasdermatológicas não iatrogénicas em 35,6%.Discussão: Apesar da patologia tumoral ser a mais referida na literatura, as infecções cutâneas foram as mais observadas na nossa amostra. As diferenças significativas entre as duas sub-populações estudadas podem estar relacionadas com o maior grau de imunossupressão a que os doentes transplantados renais estão sujeitos.Conclusão: Dada a elevada frequência de patologia cutânea nestes doentes é essencial incluir o acesso a consultas de Dermatologia e Venereologia nos cuidados multi-disciplinares pós-transplante.
Ações performativas para ativar um perspectivismo artístico entre antropoceno e antropofagia
Authors: Gonçalves Thaís
Published: January 2022

Diante dos desafios ao corpo e ao planeta na era do Antropoceno, uma outra cosmopolítica da cena é possível? Esse artigo traz a Antropofagia como contraponto para propor um perspectivismo artístico, nos termos do perspectivismo ameríndio delineado por Viveiros de Castro. Os contornos de “antropo-cena” são articulados à ações performativas do Projeto Technologically Expanded Performance (TEPe) composto por um grupo de artistas e pesquisadores situados em dois continentes e uma ilha atlântica.
