Abstract: The COVID-19 pandemic is not only a global health emergency but also leads to a recession of the global economy on a large scale. This economic recession will certainly also affect women and men differently. In the handling of the COVID-19 pandemic, one of the policies of Indonesia’s Government was the issuance of Government Regulation 21 of 2020 on large-scale social restrictions to accelerate the handling of COVID-19. This policy raises a wide range of impacts on women in the context of women's positions in the family and as a working woman. Thus, gender mainstreaming in the handling of COVID-19 to realize gender justice should be a special concern, especially since women have been exposed to the vulnerability of COVID-19, as well as enduring the distinctive impact of the COVID-19 handling policy regarding social roles in families and communities. Keywords: Legal justice, gender mainstreaming, Covid-19, ontological paradigm. |

Abstract : Experiences of Vulnerable Children in a South African Public Child and Youth Care Centre
|
|
Abstract: The article reflects on community engagement as an excellent method to build upon researchers’ cumulative knowledge in a specific discipline and to demonstrate the integration of that knowledge with real-life issues. This is followed by a literature review that examines complex life situations of the interaction between parenting and child abuse, specifically between structures and child welfare systems, that capture the lines between circumstances and individual action. A phenomenological approach is adopted of descriptive qualitative nature regarding the perception of the psychosocial well-being of vulnerable children in a child and youth care centre in Tshwane, South Africa. Findings point to the nature and extent of violence against children in South Africa. As this article does not cover the complete field of the welfare system, the aim is to foster a greater understanding of this system, which might lead to better and more research on vulnerable children after being placed in a child and youth care centre. Explanations offered include legislation and coordination mechanisms, including the associated gaps and challenges. Keywords: Community engagement, Universities, Vulnerable children, State intervention, Child and youth care centre, Caregivers. |
