Invaliditātes ietekme iOS lietotņu pieejamībai
2020
Cilvēkiem var būt dažādi traucējumi, kas apgrūtina informācijas uztveri un ierobežo ikdienas dzīvi. Tā kā mūsdienās lietotnes ir kļuvušas par lielu daļu no dzīves, kas gan izklaidē, gan arī palīdz visdažādākajos uzdevumos, ir svarīgi ņemt vērā tos, kuriem izmantot mobilās ierīces ir sarežģītāk nekā citiem. Dotā bakalaura darba mērķis ir izveidot rīku, kas iOS mobilajās ierīcēs atspoguļo dažādus (redzes, dzirdes, kustību, kognitīvos) traucējumus, lai lietotņu izstrādātāji iejustos invalīdu lomās un izstrādes procesā pievērstu lielāku uzmanību produkta pieejamībai. Darba gaitā tiks izpētīti būtiskākie invaliditātes veidi, cilvēku grūtības lietotņu izmantošanā, kā arī tiks piedāvāti veidi, kā …
Public health strategies adopted to manage the increase of accesses to vaccination services, as a result of the application of the law 119/2017.

Inequality in Healthcare Utilization in Italy: How Important Are Barriers to Access?
2022
With the ageing population, equitable access to medical care has proven to be paramount for the effective and efficient management of all diseases. Healthcare access can be hindered by cost barriers for drugs or exams, long waiting lists or difficult access to the place where the needed healthcare service is provided. The aim of this paper is to investigate whether the probability of facing one of these barriers varies among individuals with different socio-economic status and care needs, controlling for geographical variability. Methods. The sample for this study included 9629 interviews with Italian individuals, aged 15 and over, from the second wave (2015) of the European Health Intervie…

Qualitative Evaluation of the STOEMP Network in Ghent: An Intersectoral Approach to Make Healthy and Sustainable Food Available to All
2020
The STOEMP network is, to our knowledge, one of the first initiatives to bring different sectors together in a municipality so as to increase accessibility to healthy and sustainable foods for all, with particular attention for the disadvantaged population. This qualitative study aimed to gain an in-depth insight into how the STOEMP network aims to reach its goal of making healthy, sustainable food available to everyone, through an intersectoral, collaborative process, exploring the facilitators and challenges of taking a systems-oriented approach to achieving this. Interviews were conducted among 15 stakeholders of the STOEMP network between March&ndash

E-Government Implementation: Transparency, Accessibility and Usability of Government Websites
2017
In several European countries decentralization has promoted the creation of Regional Governments (RGs) with high levels of competence and responsibilities, such as promoting good governance and sustainability. Information and communication technologies (ICTs), and hence, the adoption of e-government has contributed to the adoption and dissemination of government transparency in a usable and accessible way. In this chapter, we study the transparency, accessibility and usability of websites of Spanish RGs.
Indeksi liikuntaympäristöjen monipuolisuudesta asukkaiden lähialueella
2023
Liikunta on välttämätöntä terveyden ylläpitämiselle, ja sillä on lukemattomia positiivisia vaikutuksia sekä fyysiseen että psyykkiseen hyvinvointiin. Liikuntaympäristöjen monipuolisuus lähellä kotia voi edistää liikunnan harrastamista ja fyysisesti aktiivista elämäntapaa. Liikunnallisen elämäntavan mahdollistaminen kaikille, etenkin huono-osaisilla alueilla, voi tasoittaa alueiden välisiä hyvinvointieroja ja näin vähentää segregaation vaikutuksia. Suomessa yhdenvertaisten liikuntapalvelujen järjestäminen asukkaille on pääosin kuntien vastuulla. Tässä artikkelissa esittelemme uuden indeksin, jolla voidaan kuvata ja analysoida asukkaiden lähialueella olevien erityyppisten liikuntaympäristöjen…
Impact of COVID-19 on hand surgery in Italy: A comparison between the Northern and the Southern regions
2021
The aims of this study were to evaluate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on emergency and elective hand surgery in four Italian regions that had either a high (Lombardy and Piemonte) or a low (Sicilia and Puglia) COVID-19 case load to discuss problems and to elaborate strategies to improve treatment pathways. A panel of hand surgeons from these different regions compared and discussed data from the centers they work in. The COVID-19 pandemic had an enormous impact on both elective and emergency surgery in Italy, not only in highly affected regions but also – and paradoxically even at a higher extent – in regions with a low COVID-19 case load. A durable and flexible redesign of hand surge…
