The sample size was 100 family units selected by using the simple random sampling. Somehow (40%) of the respondents fall in the age categories of 41 to 50 years, followed by 30% of the family units who were in the age categories of 50 and above years. More than half 52% of the respondents were illiterates and the other (14%) of the respondents had primary level of education. The result is further expressed that the other 20% of the male respondents were of the view that the retail trade, cycling repairing and carpet business important child labor route respectively. While 20% of the female respondents revealed that they are cycling repairing and carpet business important child labor route respectively at Quetta district. Children are the assets of any nation without their contribution in the developmental process can be null and void, therefore it should be recommended that government must take stern action against the child labor at grass-root level to eliminate the child labor in the community or society.

In much of human history, and in the majority of the world today, children participate in the work activities of the communities in which they are growing, and thereby learn to become productive members of the societies in which they live. Relatively recently, the principal work of children has switched from productive work to schoolwork, a change that has created conceptual problems for understanding the continuing importance of children’s work outside school. An attempt to divide children’s work into harmful “labor” and benign “work” fails to account for the vast majority of children’s work, which combines potentially positive and negative elements. References to harmful work and exploitative conditions can be found in the Oxford Bibliographies article on Child Labor. More positive accounts of children’s work in different cultural contexts appear in the article on Children’s Work and Apprenticeship, which focuses on unpaid work in the family context and work associated with learning. Neither article defines its topic in relation to the other. This indeterminate division leaves gaps, omitting some literature on children’s work that does not easily fall into either category, such as the benefits that children can derive from employment and how to assess costs and benefits in children’s work. This article, therefore, has two roles: it points to publications that provide a more comprehensive view of children’s work and it fills some of the gaps left by the other two articles.

Purpose The purpose of this paper of inter-professional networks is to analyze the evolution of relationships between professional groups enacting new forms of collaboration to address clinical imperatives. Design/methodology/approach This paper uses a case study based on semi-structured interviews with physicians and nurses, document analysis and informal discussions. Findings This study documents how two inter-professional networks were developed through professional agency. The findings show that the means by which networks are developed influence the form of collaboration therein. One of the networks developed from day-to-day, immediately relevant, exchange, for patient care. The other one developed from more formal and infrequent research and training exchanges that were seen as less decisive in facilitating patient care. The latter resulted in a loosely knit network based on a small number of ad hoc referrals while the other resulted in a tightly knit network based on frequent referrals and advice seeking. Practical implications Developing inter-professional networks likely require a sustained phase of interpersonal contacts characterized by persuasion, knowledge sharing, skill demonstration and trust building from less powerful professional groups to obtain buy-in from more powerful professional groups. The nature of the collaboration in any resulting network depends largely on the nature of these initial contacts. Originality/value The literature on inter-professional healthcare networks focusses on mandated networks such as NHS managed care networks. There is a lack of research on inter-professional networks that emerged from the bottom up at the initiative of healthcare professionals in response to clinical imperatives. This study looks at some forms of collaboration that these “grass-root” initiatives engender and how they are consolidated.

<p>Many parents who decided to work abroad as International migrant workers. They work for financial fulfilment.

This qualitative research was conducted in Karangwotan village, Pati, Central Java. The data showed three result: (1) problems faced by the children with parents as immigrant in getting Islamic education are that they do not have the real model in the family and there was no father/mother or both of them who teach and educate in the family; (2) there is just little parents’ influence to children’s islamic education. It is just such kind of order, suggestion and advice; and (3) for getting the islamic education,  the children with parents as immigrant workers join several islamic programs. They are <em>Taman Pendidikan Qur’an</em> (TPQ) or Program of Qur’an Education, <em>Madrasah Ibtidaiyyah</em> or Islamic Elementary School, and the islamic courses.</p>

Economic independence of women is a major catalyst in achieving equality for women. In a developing country like India women are more culturally adapted and their property rights are still in dreams. There are supporting legal system for Indian women in case of property rights, however many a time’s women are not willing to utilize it because of fear of break of relationship. The present study attempts to study the knowledge of married educated women on matrimonial property rights in India. This shows that the respondents have minimum knowledge on property rights, even when they have knowledge the respondents are not ready to get their property from their relations because of the fear of break of relationships. On the other hand, the male counterparts are not ready to share their property with their sisters. This shows that legal system prevails in document form and in no way it helps women in grass root level.

Data were collected through observation and in-depth interviewwith the migrant workers and PADMI. The research showed that Ringgit or Malaysian currencycontribute significant influence to the migrant workers’ behavior, which showed by the change of theirfashion style, pattern of consumption, increasing entertainment needs and also the augmentation ofconsumptive life style. The consumptive life style is a new reality and relatively common, while to fulfillsexual needs the workers opted to marry the other female migrant workers because it was consideredmore save, more economical and also could prevent them from the contamination of sexual disease.At the other side, PADMI has not only principal role in fulfilling the family life needs but also mustattempt to maintain the completeness and harmony of the family/household.

CCHF is caused by a tickborne virus (Nairovirus) in the family Bunyaviridae. It was first characterized in the Crimea in 1944 and given the name Crimean hemorrhagic fever. Later, it was recognized in 1969 as the cause of illness in the Congo, thus resulting in the current name of the disease. CCHF is a zoonotic viral disease that is asymptomatic in infected animals, but a serious threat to humans. The virus is mainly transmitted by tick species of the genus Hyalomma. During January 2011, Nosocomial (infections caught in hospitals) outbreak was detected in Gujarat, Ahmedabad. Thereafter, several outbreaks and cases of CCHF were reported in the states of Gujarat and Rajasthan during 2012-15. Cases were documented from six districts of Gujarat (Ahmedabad, Amreli, Patan, Surendranagar, Kutch and Aravalli), 3 districts of Rajasthan (Sirohi, Jodhpur and Jaisalmer) and in state of Uttar Pradesh were also affected. During 2019, 3 cases were reported in Rajasthan & 17 cases reported from Gujarat from the districts of Bhavnagar, Botad, Amreli, Kheda, Jamnagar, Rajkot, Surendranagar, Morbi, Jodhpur. An attempt has been made to describe the vectors of CCHF in India and its prevention and control so as to benefit the program managers working at the grass root level.
