Описание: If developing countries are to reach their development goals, their leaders must muster a firm understanding of the impact of infectious diseases on their people and take prompt action to fix socioeconomic arising from the problems associated with poor health practices. Similarly, international health organizations touted as helpers must make sound financial judgments and proper use of technical resources to improve the overall health and social wellbeing of the population. Developing countries must drastically reduce their dependence on foreign assistance and public officials as well as health experts, and local and international NGOs must enhance communication and their collaboration. Healthcare Management Strategy, Communication, and Development Challenges and Solutions in Developing Countries describes the ways in which health services, public health administration, and healthcare policies are managed in developing countries, and how intercultural, intergroup, and mass communication practices weaken development efforts in those countries. Drawing experiences from international health organizations such as the United Nations Fund for Population (UNFPA), commissioned in poor countries to assist national governments in improving the wellbeing of their citizens, this volume analyzes the spread of infectious diseases and offers communication strategies for the management of such diseases as malaria, HIV Aids, Polio, and others in Somalia, Madagascar, Nigeria, the Democratic Republic of Congo, and India.

Описание: International development stakeholders harness communication with two broad purposes: to do good, via communication for development and media assistance, and to communicate do-gooding, via public relations and information. This book unpacks various ways in which different efforts to do good are combined with attempts to look good, be it in the eyes of donor constituencies at large, or among more specific audiences, such as journalists or intra-agency decision-makers. Development communication studies have tended to focus primarily on interventions aimed at doing good among recipients, at the expense of examining the extent to which promotion and reputation management are elements of those practices. This book establishes the importance of interrogating the tensions generated by overlapping uses of communication to do good and to look good within international development cooperation. The book is a critical text for students and scholars in the areas of development communication and international development and will also appeal to practitioners working in international aid who are directly affected by the challenges of communicating for and about development.

Описание:
Development theory and practice are often taught in a manner that strips them of their historical context and obscures alternative intellectual assumptions and critical frameworks. This prevents students from acquiring a holistic understanding of the world and consequently, when it comes to development practice, most lack the skills to live and engage with people. It has become crucial to properly consider what it means to conceive and implement participatory development out in the field and not just in the boardroom.
Building on the work of Robert Chambers and Arturo Escobar, Communicating Development with Communities is an empirically grounded critical reflection on how the development industry defines, imagines and constructs development at the implementation level. Unpacking the dominant syntax in the theory and practice of development, the book advocates a move towards relational and indigenous models of living that celebrate local ontologies, spirituality, economies of solidarity and community-ness. It investigates how subaltern voices are produced and appropriated, and how well-meaning experts can easily become oppressors. The book propounds a pedagogy of listening as a pathway that offers a space for interest groups to collaboratively curate meaningful development with and alongside communities.
This is a valuable resource for academics and practitioners in the fields of Development Studies, Communication for Development, Communication for Social Change, Social Anthropology, Economic Development and Public Policy.
Foreword by Robin Mansell.
