Towards a community-driven definition of community wellbeing: A qualitative study of residents.

Background: Understanding what promotes or hinders a community's capacity to serve the priorities of its residents is essential for the alignment of citizen needs and governance. Participatory approaches that engage community residents on the topic of community wellbeing are useful methods for defining outcomes that reflect a community's goals and priorities. Using qualitative focus group methods, the aim of this study was to outline bottom-up definitions of community wellbeing from a diverse pool of community residents in Ontario, Canada.

Barriers and facilitators to implementation of oral rehydration therapy in low- and middle-income countries: A systematic review.

Despite these efforts, ORT coverage remains relatively low.
