This paper examines the learning process by which farmers come to a decision to use newly introduced seeds which were promoted through demonstration plots in midwestern and eastern regions of Uganda. Framed as social and material interactions, we investigated the learning process of the demonstration plots using data from focus group discussions, interviews and a survey amongst 983 individuals. The results reveal several constraints that impede learning, resulting in an overall low awareness and adoption of the introduced seeds. Some of the most prominent constraints resulted from the selection of location and demonstration plot host, the distance of agro-dealers, at district headquarters, limited interactions amongst farmers and irregular involvement of farmers in the demonstrations. Moreover, the prominent role of agro-dealers at field days suggests that informing farmers about where to buy seeds was considered more important than explaining farmers how to grow these seeds profitably. This commercial focus of field days and demonstrations plots had negative consequences for the social learning. This paper contributes to the learning and adoption literature by showing that interactions amongst actors can improve or reduce the balance between didactic, social and environmental learning.

Abstract There is a need for research to gain understanding of the social and cultural constructions of ageing masculinities that, as Gullette emphasises, operate together to construct a ‘culture of decline’. This presentation explores how cultural images of older men inform constructions of ageing and lived realities in Ireland. It draws on the Irish findings from a cross-national, inter-disciplinary project conducted in 2019 investigating older men’s perceptions of how they are represented in film and advertising. It applies innovative narrative and thematic analysis to data from four focus group discussions, interviews and reflective diaries, to explore participants’ (Irish men aged 65+) reactions to the portrayal of older men in TV and film. Stereotypes identified included older men as conservative, grumpy, sad, streetwise, trickster, or action hero. Thematic analysis identified themes including men’s identification with their jobs; their diminishing roles in the family; and old age as a matter of perception.

Urban Villages

Abstract:The rapid growing of urban industrial sector require villages in urban areas having various ways to survive for life. Recently, urban villages do not have distinctive characteristics. They are gradually eroded by the presence of elite housing as a result of the resolution of the kampongs. The purpose of this research is to map the economic potential of the Kepaon Islamic Village which is located in the majority Hindu circumstances. Rapid Rural Apraissal was employed as a method in solving problems and the data were collected by Focus Group discussions, interviews and mini surveys. The results of this study showed that in addition to the social, cultural and religious potential,  there is economic potential in the form of Mukena Bali Business that can strengthen the identity of Kepaon Islamic Village in the midst of the Hindu community.ملخص:تطور مجال الصناعيات المدنية أصبح تطورا هائلاما يلزم سكان القرية الواقعة في المدينة البقاء على قيد الحياة حارصين على سبيل العيش بمختلف طرقه، فكلما حركة القرية المدنية تبقى جامدة أي لا تملك مميزات خاصة كانت امكانيتها الاقتصادية تنخفض وتنحدر، ولاسيما إذ بناء المنازل الفاخرة تستمر تلبية لأمنية مستقبلية بدعم من بيئة تمنع أهلها لاستظهار هويته. وتهدف هذه الدراسة إلى تحديد امكانيات اقتصادية في قرية المسلمين قرية كفاؤون حيث إنهم يعيشون في وسط مناطق مجتمع المتمسكين بديانة الهنود في الأغلب. Rapid Rural Apraissal عبارة عن طريقة تحليل المسألة بوسيلة جمع البيانات، والحوار، والاستطلاع. وتتضح نيتجة الدراسة بأن إمكانيات سكان قرية كفاؤون ليست مقصورة على ناحية اجتماعية، وثقافية، ودينية فحسب وإنما امتدت إلى امكانيات اقتصادية قادرة على تقوية هوية سكان قرية كفاؤون وسط مجتمع الهنود، وتلك امكانية اقتصادية تأتي على انتاج ملابس دينية.Abstrak: Sektor industrial perkotaan semakin berkembang pesat mengharuskan kampung yang ada di perkotaan harus memiliki berbagai cara untuk tetap bertahan untuk hidup. Semakin kampung kota tidak memiliki ciri khas, lambat laun akan semakin tergerus dengan hadirnya perumahan-perumahan elite wujud dari resolusi kampung kota didukung pula dengan lingkungan yang bukan menjadi jati diri mereka. Tujuan dilakukan penelitian ini adalah untuk memetakan potensi ekonomi dari Kampung Islam Kepaon yang berada di lingkungan mayoritas agama Hindu.Rapid Rural Apraissal merupakan metode dalam penyelesaian masalah dengan teknik pengumpulan data berupa focus group discussion, wawancara dan mini survey. Hasil dari penelitian ini adalah selain potensi yang telah dimiliki oleh Kampung Islam Kepaon yaitu potensi sosial, budaya dan religi, ternyata terdapat potensi ekonomi yang dapat memperkuat identitas kampung Islam kepaon di tengah masyarakat umat Hindu yakni usaha mukena bali.

In recent times many Nigerians have been singled out when it comes to criminal activities and xenophobic attacks in South Africa, which leads to disruption of the hitherto cordial relationship between South African host communities and Nigerian migrants. Nevertheless, the rate of Nigerians migrating to South Africa keeps soaring. Studies of migration between Nigeria and South Africa, have been scanty, often limited to the study of traditional economic disparity between the two countries with less emphasis on the social-cultural challenges facing Nigerian migrants in the host communities.This paper thus examined the socio-economic and cultural challenges facing Nigerian migrants in selected communities in Johannesburg, South Africa. Data for the study were collected through in-depth interviews and focus group discussions with Nigerian migrants in Hillbrow, Braamfontein and Alexandra suburbs in Johannesburg, South Africa.

The social, economic, and ecological role of woodlands forests in dry and lowland areas are more imperative than anywhere else. Most of the dry lands of Ethiopia host woodlands that produce various commercial gum-resin products. The objective of this study was to investigate the social and economic importance of commercial gum-resin products focusing on their roles in the local livelihoods. Four kebeles, namely, Luka and Enchete from Bena-Tsemay district, and Erbore and Asele from Hamer district of South Omo Zone, were purposively selected for the collection of socioeconomic data. Semistructured questionnaire and checklists were used for households and key informant interviews and focus group discussions, respectively. In addition, market assessments and field observation were conducted to collect the primary data and supplemented with secondary data. A total of 80 households were randomly selected for one-to-one interviews from the total number of 425 households in the selected kebeles. A total of 10 key informant interviews with elders, forestry experts, local merchants, and enterprise members involved in gum-resins marketing and 4 focus group discussions with 12 members including men, women, and youth were conducted. Simple descriptive statistical tools were used for the data analysis. The results of the study showed that the mean annual income earned from the sale of gum-resins was 5670 and 4571 ETB per household at Bena-Tsemay and Hamer study sites, respectively. About 84% of the respondents indicated that gum-resin collection was the simplest and fastest means to earn income for school children and women. Gum and resin collection was the third most important livelihood option in the study area following animal husbandry and crop and honey production. The majority (84%) of respondents recognized the income made from gum-resin products as a safety net during recurring famine eras. Moreover, respondents recognized the benefit of gum arabic as food during famine time, as chewing gum, and as nutritious fodder. It was also used as folk medicine for both human and livestock diseases. Communities used this resource as a constituent to treat eye and skin infections, bleeding, wounds, ulcers, stomachache, gastrointestinal infections, etc. In addition, 88.33% of shrubs/trees were used as source of cash income for local communities and 11.67% as fodder for animal husbandry. Despite this significance, various constraints hindered the utilization of the resource in the study area, and these included lack of appropriate tapping techniques, market access, market information, cooperatives, infrastructure facilities, and appropriate institutions as well as poor local communities’ awareness of land management. The present investigation has provided valuable information for overcoming the major constraints by devising strategies to maximize gum-resin production and commercialization in the study area.
