Описание:
While many initial education benchmarks are being met, new and continuing challenges exist for adolescent girls in the developing world. Discrimination, violence, marginalization, and health-related issues prevail, making proper education at the middle school level crucial during this unique development time. As we continue to see the expectations for girls grow, education for girls must also find a new place within the evolving norms of political, economic, cultural and social life.
This volume takes a global look at the obstacles and enablers in girls' education that can have lasting institutional, psychological and social consequences. It looks at many complex issues affecting education for adolescent girls around the world, including the underlying global demands for women in the formal workforce and the universal impact of gender-based violence, and provides a critical framework through which researchers may explore and critique these complexities.

Описание: Life suddenly does not make sense to Joni--wife, mother, grandmother, daughter, nurse. Generational gaps are widening, professional practices are viewed differently, family seems distant and out of touch with what she is experiencing, and God appears to be of no help. Amid this turmoil, she feels the need to act and thus develops a plan which includes feigning senility in her seventies for the purpose of landing herself in an assisted living facility. There, in a place called Borealis in northern Minnesota, Joni plans to collect data on what it feels like to be old, institutionalized, and experiencing mental deficits, hoping those insights would write this book. Painfully, she decides that even her family and friends will need to be deceived. At Borealis, Joni meets a host of colorful characters including a precious gems dealer turned philanthropist, an ex-nun who married a Jew, and a woman who stages her own death to heal her divided family. And then there is Sam, a man tormented by dysfunctional grief--unexpressed and unresolved secondary to guilt. Joni's project ends up teaching her more than she set out to learn, as professional journey turns personal when she learns about the nurse she should have been and the old person she wants to become. And a brewing spiritual conflict is brought to a full boil when the life of her second love is threatened much like her first. Ambivalence throughout this story is apparent as Joni tugs war between light-hearted and heavy-hearted postures toward both the developmental stage of older adulthood and her own aging process. She exposes what many old can relate to about the many aspects of society to which they can no longer relate. Then she takes a stab at why. And in the end, all is not as it seemed.
