From needs to competencies : a case study on the integration of a rights based approach into NGO practises
2010
The objective of this qualitative case study is to provide knowledge on the possibilities of incorporating a rights based approach (RBA) into practises of non-governmental organisations (NGOs) in the context of development and children. The study is confined to examine the possibilities of RBA in realising children’s rights within the child sponsorship programme (CSP) of a Finnish NGO, Fida International (Fida), and the conceptualisation of the child in regard to different approaches. The theoretical framework is built on contemporary development discourse concerning the approximation of human rights and development as well as the underlying reasons for the emergence of RBA as a contributio…

Od iskierki z popielnika do pożogi : motyw ognia i jego funkcje w wybranych utworach dla dzieci i młodzieży
2021
Authors of literature for children and young adults are reluctant to use the theme of fire despite the fact that fiery metaphors were used by editors of interwar and post- -WW1I magazines aimed at this age group: Płomyk (Flame), Płomyczek (Little Flame), Mały Płomyczek (Tiny Flame), Słonko (Little Sun), and Iskierki (Sparks). Perhaps there is a lack o f ideas for presenting it in an interesting way that refrains from didacticism and empty moralizing. Texts about fire show the opposition o f good and evil. Authors o f poems aim to stimulate visual perception o f the reader through a palette o f colours ranging from yellow to orange to red. There is also black, introduced in the form of a smo…

Family and work-related risk factors in children's social–emotional well-being and parent–educator cooperation in flexibly scheduled early childhood …
2023
Non-standard work schedules (NSWS) have become typical, but their associations with childcare arrangements and children's well-being are unknown. This study explores how risk factors are associated with the social–emotional well-being of girls and boys using flexibly scheduled early childhood education and care. Furthermore, the study investigates whether well-functioning cooperation between parents and educators buffers the negative effects of the risk factors. This study, which is a part of a larger survey carried out in three European countries, reports Finnish parents' (N = 146) perspectives. The results showed that high parental stress was associated with low child well-being. Strong p…
The necropolis of Ensisheim/Reguisheimerfeld (Haut-Rhin) : illustration of the Late Bronze Age funerary practices in Alsace
2007
In 2000, the preventive excavation of the Ensisheim/Reguisheimerfeld site (Haut-Rhin), carried out by the ANTEA SARL company, brought to light 87 funerary structures belonging to a cremation necropolis dating from the beginning of the Late Bronze Age (around 1350-1050 BC). Following study of the material, 3 successive chronological phases and a possible cultural "faciès" centred on the bend in the Rhine at Basel, Switzerland, were distinguished. The archaeo-anthropological study of the burnt bones revealed, among other things, the existence of a large number of multiple graves and of socially immature members of the society, phenomena rarely observed in the region. The analysis of the inter…
DAL DIRITTO AL FIGLIO AL DIRITTO DEL BAMBINO AD AVERE UNA FAMIGLIA. QUESTIONI DI RESPONSABILITA' EDUCATIVE
2019
The paper has a twofold aim. First, it intends to offer a critical review of some phenomena related to the various claims of “right to a child”. These are phenomena, that are progressively emerging in the so-called “family” realities, in our time of the late modernity, and that, in many respects, seem to be summed up in the possibility of “surrogate motherhood”. If looked at with attention not only empirically, these phenomena can tell us something really significant about the way in which both the reality of the family and, more radically, the reality of the person, are today understood. These phenomena challenge pedagogy as well as philosophy as education to deepen a reflection on meaning…
