description: Nachhaltige Finanzanlagen erfreuen sich immer grösserer Beliebtheit und gewinnen zunehmend an Bedeutung. Viele Anleger entscheiden sich mittlerweile bewusst dafür. Der Begriff „Nachhaltigkeit“ jedoch ist noch immer nicht einheitlich definiert. Es existieren zahlreiche Richtlinien, an denen sich nachhaltige Finanzanlagen orientieren, wie zum Beispiel die ESG Kriterien, die Agenda 2030, die zehn Prinzipien des UN Global Compacts und die sechs Prinzipien des verantwortungsvollen Investierens. Allerdings fehlen nach wie vor einheitliche globale Standards zur Bewertung und Klassifizierung der nachhaltigen Anlagen. Es existieren sieben nachhaltige Anlagestrategien, von denen das Ausschlussverfahren am häufigsten angewendet wird und auch den höchsten Beitrag zur Verwirklichung der Agenda 2030 leisten kann. Die zehn Prinzipien des UN-Global Compact, die International Bill of Human Rights sowie der ILO-Kernarbeitsnormen sollten als Mindest-Anforderungen für alle nachhaltigen Finanzprodukte gelten.

However, the term "sustainability" is still not defined uniformly. There are numerous guidelines that govern sustainable investment, such as the ESG criteria, the 2030 Agenda, the ten principles of the UN Global Compact, and the six Principles of Responsible Investment. However, there are still no uniform global standards for assessing and classifying sustainable investments. There are seven sustainable Investment strategies, the most common of which is the exclusion process contributing most to the realization of the Agenda 2030. The ten principles of the UN Global Compact, the ILO labor standards, and the International Bill of Human Rights should be regarded as the minimum requirements for sustainable financial assets.
Food-Related Advertising Targeting Children

description: While technological advances are credited with decreasing Mexico’s rate of under-nutrition, they have contributed to a rapid increase in childhood obesity nationwide. About one quarter of Mexican youth are overweight or obese, leading to serious medical conditions in adulthood, including Type 2 diabetes, cancer and cardiovascular disease. The aim of this paper is three-fold: (1) identify the dietary habits of Mexican children, (2) assess the role of marketing in Mexico’s childhood obesity epidemic and (3) illustrate a proposal for eliminating irresponsible food marketing to young people in Mexico. Studies reveal that Mexican children are eating excessive quantities of energy-dense snack foods and sodas, while fruit and vegetable intake is low. Higher levels of overall food intake have been linked to greater television screen time, suggesting the influence of marketing on the childhood obesity epidemic. Mexican children are more exposed than adults to food advertisements, particularly for energy-dense foods. Children’s exposure to food marketing has also been found to affect their food preferences and thus their parents’ food purchasing behaviors. This indicates the need for restrictions on food advertising to children in Mexico. Examples from other countries suggest that self-regulatory initiatives within the food industry are insufficient to adequately address the issue. Thus, strict government policies are proposed, outlining nutritional standards on all food items advertised to children in Mexico.

Publisher: name: The Journal of Global Health at Columbia University
Year: 2012

description: Since the culmination of SARS in 2003, the world has been awakened to the surreptitious and often fatal reality of viral emergence on a global scale. The WHO, as the leading governing body in global public health, has recognized the need for heightened surveillance of emerging pathogens. The Nipah Encephalitis virus, a lethal zoonotic paramyxovirus, has been identified as a source of potential pandemic disease and thus a threat to the health security of the international community as a whole. An interdisciplinary, multi-lateral approach is needed to understand the changing nature of this deadly pathogen from a microbiological to societal level, and in concert, prepare for a possible public health emergency of international concern.

Challenges of Building Health Impact Assessment Capacity in Developing Countries: a Review
Creators: name: Byambaa, Tsogtbaatar

name: Davison, Colleen
Publisher: name: The Journal of Global Health at Columbia University
Year: 2012

description: The published and grey literatures, including online technical reports and guidelines, about Health Impact Assessment (HIA) capacity building and training are reviewed. The review aims to compare country-specific HIA environments and different training materials and to identify appropriate training material for HIA in low- and middle-income (LMIC) settings, such as Mongolia. The few publications about HIA and capacity building found in scientific databases either describe the potential benefits of HIA training or discuss methodological issues. There is, however, a large body of grey literature, mostly institutional, available online. In assessing the HIA training literature, three key points arise: knowing the audiences’ roles when determining training design and content, being culturally sensitive and recognizing traditional knowledge in training and promoting elements of “system-wide capacity building” for HIA. There remains a need to increase the available literature and web content on HIA training and capacity building specifically designed for LMICs. Decisions will have to be made about what to translate and how to translate training materials into languages other than English.

From Breastfeeding to Bottles
Creators: name: Guasti, Cally
Publisher: name: The Journal of Global Health at Columbia University
Year: 2012

description: Prior to the early twentieth century, women had only two choices for how to feed their infants: they could breastfeed their infants themselves, or they could seek out a “wet nurse.” In the 1920s, a third option was introduced in developed nations— infant formula, a manufactured alternative to breast milk. De- pending on its audience, this alternative was seen as a lifesaving option, a modern way to feed a child or a shameful health risk. The differing reactions to infant formula are an excellent il- lustration of the conflicting ways in which people view infant health. Societal and cultural beliefs about sickness, or “meaningcentered beliefs,” inform the way people react to health and dis- ease. For example, Anne Fadiman’s book The Spirit Catches You and You Fall Down relates a Hmong cultural belief that when someone has a seizure, it represents the soul leaving the body.1 Meaning-centered beliefs influence every country and every culture. Moreover, they hold persuasive marketing power, a fact that Nestlé, a transnational corporation based in Vevey, Switzerland, demonstrated when it introduced infant formula to the Western world.

description: The Journal of Global Health seeks to provide students with a medium to facilitate public health dialogue in an increasingly interconnected world, a world that both greatly enables and poses new challenges to the study of human health. In a globalized world, we sometimes lose sight of the most fundamental and critical component of global health: health, in and of itself. We urge you to reflect on the meaning of the word “health.” What does it mean to be healthy?

Diagnosis. The genus Bittacus is similar to Terrobittacus, but can be differentiated from the latter by the following characters: 1) male epandrial lobe longer than half length of gonocoxite (cf. epandrial lobe distinctly shorter than half length of gonocoxite; 3) tergum X saddle-like (cf. tergum X vestigial or absent); 4) female subgenital plate separated mesally by a membranous area (cf. subgenital plate almost fused mesally).
Bittacus differs from Bicaubittacus by the male gonocoxites lacking paired prolongations distally.

Healthcare of the rural aged in Andhra Pradesh, India
Creators: name: Yerramilli, Pooja
Publisher: name: The Journal of Global Health at Columbia University
Year: 2012

description: In the summer of 2010, an elderly man in West Godhavari asked me, “Now that you’ve met us, how are you going to help?” I could sense the frustration in his voice as he described his previous encounters with health care workers whose promises to alleviate his unaffordable monthly bills remained unfulfilled. He explained to me that as he grew older, he developed hypertension and diabetes requiring continuous treatment due to the chronic nature of both conditions. The cumulative cost of these medications put a financial strain on his family. This man was the first of many elderly villagers to voice such complaints to me. In a little over four weeks, I traveled to ten villages in Andhra Pradesh (AP), India, with a team of CARE Byrraju employees. As a research intern for CARE, a non-profit organization (NPO), I formally interviewed ten aged villagers, their caregivers and the CARE Byrraju village doctors and nurses in each of six different villages. I also informally spoke with ten elderly individuals in each of the four other villages for a total of 100 interactions. My primary aim was to elucidate the most prevalent health problems and barriers to care that the elderly face in rural AP. The motivations for my project were the rapid demographic changes seen across India, the inability or reluctance of aged individuals to seek regular medical assistance and the absence of programs targeting elderly care. Due to technological, medical and economic advances in India, the fertility rate has declined substantially from 5.5 children per woman in 1970 to four children per woman in 2009, and the life expectancy has improved significantly from 49 years in 1970 to 64 in 2009 (India, 2010). As a result, the aged population, defined as ages 60 and above, has increased to roughly 7.5% of the total Indian population as of 2001. Recent sociological changes, namely the increase in female employment and migration of young workers, have led to the disintegration of the joint family, an arrangement in which aged individuals typically live with their son and his family. This disruption of support systems, in combination with issues of immobility and increased dependence, particularly in rural settings, has exacerbated the poor health status of the growing elderly population (Pandey, 2009). Because the elderly often are unable to obtain paid work, most remain entrenched in poverty.

description: A stationary, macro-homogeneous 1D through-plane model of a membrane electrode assembly (MEA) has been developed by Vetter and Schumacher [1]. In this work, a sensitivity analysis for various parameters of this MEA model is carried out. 48 parameters are identified that impact the model behaviour through the parameterization of transport properties, electrochemistry and through operating conditions. All parameters have been varied over a decade and compared to the initial value to study the impact on the simulated I-V characteristic. If the variation outranged physically reasonable limits, the latter are applied as variation boundaries.
In Fig.1 the variation of the electrical conductivity of the GDL sigma_e is shown as exemplary simulation result. The value is varied between 130 and 1300 S/m to account for data of different products types, e.g. from SGL Carbon [2], Toray [3], Freudenberg [4] and Ballard [5]. Fig.1 (a) depicts the polarisation curve with cell voltage U in V plotted over the current density i in A/cm². Two reference points at static cell voltages of Uref = 0.8 V with iref = 0.3 A/cm² (partial load) and Uref = 0.6 V with iref = 2.3 A/cm² (full load) are used in order to evaluate the specific parameter sensitivity. The colour legend depicts the varied parameter values. It can be seen that a higher electrical conductivity leads to a higher current density at equal cell voltage. In Fig.1 (b), the relative deviation of the current density at static cell voltage CCD = (i-iref)/iref is plotted over the varied parameter range. Passing the 0-line indicates passing the default parameter value. Thus, positive deviation stands for an increase and negative deviation for a decrease in performance. The relative deviation at 0.6 V reaches from -0.1 to 0.2, indicating a high sensitivity of the model to sigma_e at full load operation. For partial load conditions, the influence of sigma_e is lower than at full load, as expected from the domination of activation losses over ohmic losses at low current densities.

Purity, balance and wellness among the Swahili of Lamu, Kenya
Creators: name: Gearhart, Rebecca
name: Abdulrehman, Munib
Publisher: name: The Journal of Global Health at Columbia University
Year: 2012

description: The Swahili of Lamu Island, Kenya, are part of a larger Swahili nation that extends along the East African coast, from northern Mozambique to southern Somalia, and includes archipelagos (Lamu, Zanzibar, Comoros) in the adjacent Indian Ocean. As the Swahili established themselves into an important economic niche as the middlemen of trade between East Africans and visitors from across the Indian Ocean over the centuries, the Swahili language became the primary trade language of East Africa. Since hundreds of African ethnic groups reside in this region, each with a unique native language, speaking Swahili as a first language is both a distinguishing and unifying feature. Through close commercial interaction, intermarriage with newcomers—be they Africans or immigrants from overseas—and conversion to Islam, the Swahili have continuously integrated new philosophies and practices into their existing cosmology. Swahili concepts of health and illness exist within a complex framework constantly re-shaped by intersecting and competing notions of the physical body and the mind, the capacity to engage the supernatural and by traditional Islamic beliefs. Here we illustrate some of the ways in which the Swahili of Lamu seek purity, balance and wellness, particularly in their method of achieving psychological well-being. We share insights based on ethnographic research that Gearhart, a cultural anthropologist, has conducted in Lamu over the past decade and experiences that Abdulrehman, a Lamu native and nurse practitioner, has had with fellow residents and patients. Our hope is that these insights will promote the delivery of culturally appropriate, effective healthcare by medical professionals interested in working with the Swahili of Lamu and peoples similar to them.

Wenn Schreiner und Schreinerinnen abwandern : bewusste Karriereplanung oder notgedrungene Flexibilität? Eine Studie zum Berufswechsel

Subjects: 331: Arbeitsökonomie

description: Im BIZ Bern-Mittelland wird vermutet, dass Jahr für Jahr sehr viel mehr handwerkliche Berufsleute ausgebildet werden, als es tatsächlich braucht und dass diese Berufsleute ihren Beruf schon kurz nach der Ausbildung verlassen. In der vorliegenden Arbeit wird dem Berufswechsel anhand des Schreinerberufs nachgegangen. Untersucht wird, ob Schreinerleute ihren  ersterlernten Beruf überproportional häufig verlassen und so ja, aus welchen Gründen. Weiter wird der beruflichen Zufriedenheit und Anpassungsfähigkeit nachgegangen.
Anhand arbeitsmarktlicher Studien sowie relevanter psychologischer Fachliteratur wird im theoretischen Teil ein erster Überblick geschaffen. Dabei werden Begriffe wie zum Beispiel Berufswechsel, Abwanderung, berufliche Zufriedenheit, Arbeitszufriedenheit geklärt. Ebenso wird die Perspektive zweier Laufbahntheoretiker vorgestellt. Im empirischen Teil werden die Fragestellungen anhand Interviews mit 11 ehemaligen Schreinerleuten weiter untersucht.
Die vorliegende Arbeit zeigt, dass zur Abwanderung im Schreinerberuf keine quantitative Aussage gemacht werden kann, da keine repräsentativen Zahlen vorliegen. Entscheidet sich eine Person aber für einen Berufswechsel, liegen meist mehrere Gründe vor. Anstoss ist oft eine veränderte persönliche Situation. Hauptgrund für einen Berufswechsel sind meist schlechte Arbeitsbedingungen, die Unmöglichkeit, familiären Aufgaben nachzukommen, gefolgt von fehlender Wertschätzung und abnehmendem Ansehen des Handwerkes. Der tiefe Lohn wird zwar beklagt, da er nicht reicht, um eine Familie zu ernähren, aber nicht als Hauptgrund angegeben. Schreinerleute stehen weiterhin hinter dem ersterlernten Beruf und würden auch ihren Kindern vom Schreinerberuf nicht abraten. Dennoch bereuen sie den Berufswechsel nicht und schätzen die neue berufliche Tätigkeit.

Integrating traditional practices into allopathic medicine

Year: 2012

description: Although the popularity and demand for traditional medicine (TM) in Western countries has increased dramatically in the last several decades, allopathic healthcare practitioners in developed nations have largely avoided TM due to a lack of scientific evidence and controlled clinical trials supporting it. Unfortunately, the Western medical community’s aversion to TM has resulted in a lack of appreciation for its many supposed benefits and is representative of a challenge towards maintaining a high quality of care. The failure to recognize and integrate TM into modern medical practices can lead to adverse effects, such as dangerous drug-herb interactions due to the mixing of incompatible herbs and pharmaceuticals, and a deterioration of the patient-centered model of care due to the lack of TM communication between patients and practitioners. This paper seeks to investigate the current state of traditional medicine in American health care and policy, examine the factors that drive miscommunication between patients and practitioners and introduce solutions that can be implemented to address existing challenges. In addition, this paper highlights successful examples of integration of traditional and modern medicine systems in developing countries, which can serve as a model for the United States.

While cooperating with national efforts, Sleman Regency, Indonesia, has improved upon these recommendations to design innovative solutions to public health crises. Through community empowerment, Sleman has implemented voluntary AIDS commissions, women-led non-profit organizations and neighborhood health coalitions, volunteer-based home inspections and green initiatives. This paper draws on firsthand observations from my recent trip to Yogyakarta, Indonesia, including interviews with public health administrators, site visits and primary source material from education campaigns and local health clinics. Part I of this paper provides a broad overview of the decentralized structure of the Indonesian public health system; it examines how Sleman operates under the federalized system and focuses on the district’s method of expanding upon national health directives to create novel local initiatives. Part II of this paper evaluates how instrumental community empowerment has been in reducing disease incidence and promoting healthy behaviors. Part III assesses whether this community engagement can be replicated on the national level.

647: Grosshaushaltsführung

description: Die vorliegende Arbeit soll das Marktpotenzial von vegetarisch ernährtem Tilapia in der Zürcher Gastronomie ergründen. Dafür wurde in einem ersten Schritt eine Literaturrecherche zur Sinnhaftigkeit der Aquakultur auf Basis von vegetarischem Futter durchgeführt. Um ein Beispiel für eine erfolgreiche Markteinführung von Tilapia zu erhalten wurde der Tilapiamarkt in den USA analysiert. Mithilfe dieser Erkenntnisse wurde der momentane Marktzustand in der Schweiz analysiert.
Um das Marktpotenzial für Tilapia in der Zürcher Gastronomie errechnen zu können, wurde direkt mit der Gastronomie zusammengearbeitet. Diese Zusammenarbeit beinhaltete Testlieferungen von Tilapien an Küchenchefs von ausgewählten Restaurants. Anschliessend wurden Interviews mit den verarbeitenden Küchenchefs durchgeführt. Dadurch konnten die am meisten nachgefragten Produktformen bestimmt, und das nachgefragte Volumen eruiert werden.
description: The present paper is intended to examine the marketpotential of vegetarian-fed Tilapia in the Zurich gastronomy. In a first step, a literature research was conducted on the meaningfulness of aquaculture based on vegetarian feed. To get an example of a successful marketintroduction of Tilapia, the Tilapia market in the US was analyzed. These findings were used to analyze the current state of the market in Switzerland.
In order to be able to calculate the market potential for Tilapia in the Zurich gastronomy, a collaboration with the gastronomy was conducted. This collaboration took place through test deliveries of Tilapia and subsequent interviews with the processing chefs. This allowed the most requested product forms to be determined and the volume of the demand to be quantified.

description: With a true artist’s musicality, Jordan stands up before his peers at NYU Steinhardt’s Nordoff-Robbins Center for Music Therapy to play an improvisational xylophone solo. In Kunming, China, at the MoreToBaby Center for Mental Health Therapy, Chenxuang enthusiastically beats his tambourine to the tune of a Chinese children’s rhyme. Though thousands of miles apart, Jordan and Chenxuang have much in common—they are both five-year old boys who have been diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder, a neurodevelopmental disorder that manifests in social, communicative and behavioral impairments (CDC, 2011). Both seem content; however, their drastically different surroundings influence the way they experience autism. Jordan plays well-crafted musical instruments in a research facility; Chenxuang plays with donated plastic tambourines in a center with fading posters, peeling paint and aging equipment. Next year, Jordan will likely return to the same building to continue his therapy; due to constant relocation and closure, it is unclear whether Chenxuang will return to the same center. Two therapists tend to Jordan and four other boys; with the center severely understaffed, Chenxuang has to have a parent attend class with him every day. Each attends one of the best centers in his respective region, yet one is underfunded compared to the other. Such examples prompt the need for a biosocial analysis that studies the influence of environmental, social and political factors on biological diseases. After all, it is impossible to understand human behavior, abnormal psychopathology or mental health care without accounting for social and cultural phenomena (Jenks, 2005; Chiang &and Hadadian 2010; Lin, Tseng & and Eng-Kung, 1995). The relationship between symptoms and social stigma is especially worth examining because it may have a strong and enduring effect on the well-being of those who face mental health problems (Kleinman,1986; Pearson, 1995; Link et al., 1995). Psychiatry in China is a fusion of Eastern and Western thought, a canvas onto which cultural ideas have fostered various interpretations of autism spectrum disorder. In addition, politics impact the manner in which resources are allocated for treatment. Though there have been many studies on the development of Chinese psychiatry and mental health, few have focused on the diagnosis and treatment of autism. This paper provides an overview of how historical, cultural and political factors affect an autistic individual’s experience.

PEPFAR’s violations of the right to health of sex workers

description: In 2003, the Bush administration established the President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR), a program that pledged to provide $15 billion to support the global effort to eradicate HIV/AIDS over a five-year period. PEPFAR’s initiatives center around both prevention and care: providing antiretroviral (ARV) medication to individuals already diagnosed with HIV/AIDS and scaling up efforts to stop the spread of new infections (About PEPFAR, 2011). In 2008, PEPFAR was renewed and expanded. Due to its efforts, PEPFAR has helped provide ARV drugs to three million individuals and has partnered with over 30 countries to give aid to 11 million individuals (Latest PEPFAR Program Results, 2011). However, many of PEPFAR’s initiatives contain ideological components that constrain the scope of its anti-HIV/ AIDS missions. One such component is the “anti-prostitution pledge,” a requirement of PEPFAR that prohibits its funding of organizations that do not actively denounce prostitution. Some opponents of this policy argue that it violates the right of organizations to free expression by placing restrictions on the language, beliefs and ideologies of these organizations (Kinney, 2006). However, the PEPFAR anti-prostitution pledge also violates sex workers’ right to health. The anti-prostitution pledge incorporated into PEPFAR impedes the treatment of a key HIV/AIDS risk group, commercial sex workers, thus constituting a violation of these sex workers’ rights by hindering their access to the highest quality medical care and placing them at an increased risk of death by AIDS due to their inability to receive care in a stigma-free setting. The right to health and medical care was first guaranteed by the United Nations General Assembly in the 1948 Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UN General Assembly, 1948). This right was reinforced in the 1967 International Covenant on Economic, Social, and Cultural Rights, which “recognize[s] the right of everyone to the enjoyment of the highest attainable standard of physical and mental health” (Office of the United Nations , 1966). The right to health means that individuals should be guaranteed both the living conditions that are necessary for the establishment of good health (i.e., adequate food, clean water, proper sanitation, economic and political security, sufficient education, etc.) and the medical care they need when they fall ill. In terms of HIV/AIDS, the right to health includes access to preventative tools (for example, condoms), testing facilities and medical treatments, including ARVs.

description: Safe male circumcision (SMC) decreases risk of HIV transmission (Weiss et al., 2008a). Mathematical modeling indicates that in order to yield significant declines in HIV prevalence in sub-Saharan Africa, wide adoption of SMC is necessary (Nagelkerke, Moses, de Vlas & Bailey, 2007). Therefore, research about trends and determinants of uptake of SMC among historically non-circumcising groups in this region is essential. This cross-sectional study explored the relationship between educational attainment and young men’s willingness to undergo SMC in rural areas of central Uganda. Sub-counties were randomly selected in three districts (Mukono, Wakiso and Kiboga) and a standardized survey was administered to 297 male youths (aged 18-24). Focus group discussions were also held in each district to gauge attitudes towards SMC. Survey data was analyzed using stepwise logistic regression in STATA 11.0. Respondents with higher educational attainment had lower willingness to undergo SMC after adjusting for selected demographic variables [OR=0.20; p=0.0010]. In parametric path analysis, there was marginal evidence, p= 0.0597 (Goodman test), that awareness of SMC benefits is a partial mediator in the causal pathway between education and willingness. These findings indicate that willingness to undergo SMC in central Uganda decreases with increased educational attainment. This disparity could decrease the impact of SMC on HIV prevalence in Uganda.

description: A general scheme of material design and virtual testing of porous ceramics is presented, which provides new strategies for efficient development and optimisation of such materials. The development cycle contains three stages, which can be repeated, until the final targeted properties are reached. The first stage is the preparation of porous ceramics with properties in the region of interest and thorough 3D-investigation and characterization of the porous microstructure. In the second step, microstructure data either directly from real materials or indirectly from a virtual, stochastic model are fed into a numerical model to calculate the physical property of interest, e.g. permeability, diffusivity, thermal conductivity or electrical conductivity of pore fluids. Finally, an evaluation of data representing microstructure characteristics as well as macroscopic properties for a wide range of fabrication scenarios yields as a third step a validated model, which leads to the definition of optimised design guidelines. This optimisation cycle is then closed with the production of a porous ceramic material with improved physical properties. The successful implementation of such scheme is demonstrated here with the development of porous zirconia membranes as electric liquid junction for pH-sensors.
