Women's Perspectives on Post-partum Family Planning in Banyumas, Indonesia.

A recent programmatic shift in the provision of family planning in the Global South led to a renewed focus on post-partum family planning (PPFP). PPFP embodies a shift in the primary narrative of global family planning programs, from fertility reduction to promoting maternal and child well-being. We examine key factors that shape women's knowledge, attitudes and practice of PPFP in Banyumas, Indonesia.

Indonesian Mothers' Experience of Their Daughter's HPV Vaccination, and Factors Associated with Their Willingness to Recommend HPV Vaccination for Girls.

In Indonesia, knowledge of parents' experiences of their daughters' HPV vaccination in school settings is limited. As Indonesia seeks to scale up its HPV vaccination program nationwide, parents' perspectives hold important insights into how elements of the vaccination model can be sustained and improved. This study explored mothers' experiences of their daughters' HPV vaccination experiences, their knowledge of HPV risks and prevention, and factors associated with willingness to recommend HPV vaccination for girls.

Smallholder farmers' challenges and opportunities: Implications for agricultural production, environment and food security.

In an era of growing environmental, socioeconomic, and market uncertainties, understanding the adaptive strategies of smallholder farmers is paramount for sustainable agricultural productivity and environmental management efforts. We adopted a mixed-methods approach to investigate the adaptive strategies of smallholders in Northwest Cambodia. Our methodology included downscaled climate projections to project future climate conditions and scenarios, household surveys to collect detailed demographic and socioeconomic data, crop monitoring and record-keeping to gather data on productivity and profitability, and semi-structured interviews to obtain qualitative insights on constraints and adaptation.

The Mode of Reflexive Practice among Young Indonesian Creative Workers in the Time of COVID-19.

This article examines reflexive practice among young creative workers in Yogyakarta, Indonesia, during COVID-19. Since March 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic has unleashed a series of relentless and overlapping crises across the Indonesian archipelago. In urban centres across Indonesia, the arts and creative sectors are among the key economic sectors severely afflicted by the pandemic.

A second demographic transition in Indonesia?

As a predominantly Muslim and ethnically diverse new democracy in Asia, Indonesia is a timely case to study how the contending forces of development and social change are reflected in changing norms and practices around family formation. This paper examines the extent to which the second demographic transition (SDT) theory can provide a primary framework to understand contemporary patterns of fertility, marriage and family change in Indonesia. Against the backdrop of socio-political change following 1998, we found emerging demographic features typically associated with societies in later stages of fertility transition.

Demographic drivers of the growth of the number of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people living with dementia, 2016-2051.

Objective: To examine the demographic drivers that contribute to the future growth in the population of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples living with dementia in Australia.

Methods: Design: Multistate, Indigenous status, cohort component, population projection model.

Setting: National-level, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander population.

Evaluating the association between urban green spaces and subjective well-being in Mexico city during the COVID-19 pandemic.

This paper examines the association between the frequency of use of urban green spaces (UGS) and the subjective well-being (SWB) of Mexico City's residents during the COVID-19 pandemic. We conducted an online survey (N = 1954) regarding individuals' perceptions and use of UGS and their SWB, evaluated through the short version of the Warwick-Edinburgh mental well-being scale. Multilevel mixed-effects regression analyses were performed to investigate the association between the frequency of UGS use and SWB, including individual and municipal level characteristics as covariates.

English Language Proficiency Among Older Migrants in Australia, 2016-2046.

Australia's population is growing, ageing and exhibiting increasing heterogeneity with respect to birthplace and ethnic composition. Yet, little is understood about the levels of English language proficiency among the next generation of older migrants in Australia. Utilising a modified cohort-component model incorporating detailed language proficiency transition probabilities, we project birthplace populations by levels of English language proficiency to mid-century.

Projections of Older European Migrant Populations in Australia, 2016-56.

Many of the European migrant populations which settled in Australia in the three decades after World War Two are now much older, and their aged care and health care needs are changing. While there is a considerable literature on aspects of ageing in many migrant groups (particularly as it pertains to culturally appropriate aged care), little research attention has been given to aspects of ageing and its implications. The aim of this paper is to address this lacuna by presenting projections of Australia's Europe-born older migrant population from 2016 to 2056.

Past and projected growth of Australia's older migrant populations.

In recent years, Australia's older population (aged 65 and over) has been growing rapidly, accompanied by a shift in its country of birth composition. Although a great deal of research has been undertaken on past and current aspects of Australia's migrant groups, little attention has been paid to future demographic trends in older populations. The aim of this paper is to examine recent and possible future demographic trends of Australia's migrant populations at the older ages.

Discrimination reported by older adults living with mental health conditions: types, contexts and association with healthcare barriers.

Objective: Australian policy-making needs better information on the prevalence, context and types of discrimination reported by people living with mental health conditions and the association of exposure to discrimination with experiencing a barrier to accessing healthcare.

Methods: Secondary data analysis using the national representative General Social Survey 2014 to examine discrimination and healthcare barriers. Multivariable logistic regression was used to examine the association between discrimination and barriers to healthcare.

Is disability exclusion associated with experiencing an unmet need for health care?

Objective: To examine the association between disability exclusion and experiencing an unmet need for health care.

Methods: The 2015 Survey of Disability Ageing and Carers was used to measure the prevalence of unmet needs for health care stratified by measures of exclusion. Log-Poisson models were fitted to examine the association between discrimination, avoidance and unmet needs for health care.

Discrimination and disability: Types of discrimination and association with trust, self-efficacy and life satisfaction among older Australians.

Objective: To examine the prevalence, context and types of discrimination reported by older Australians (aged 55 years and over) and associations between outcomes (trust, self-efficacy and life satisfaction) and exposure to discrimination.

Methods: The 2014 General Social Survey was used to measure discrimination. Multivariable logistic regression was used to examine associations between levels of trust, self-efficacy and life satisfaction and exposure to discrimination.

Components of disability exclusion: Discrimination, avoidance and accessibility in later life.

Objective: To examine the prevalence and context of disability exclusion reported by people with disability, with and without communication and mobility problems.

Methods: The 2015 Survey of Disability Ageing and Carers was used to measure the prevalence of reported exclusion. Tests of proportions were used to examine differences in prevalence rates.

Social engagement and the elderly in rural Indonesia.

Rural areas in Indonesia are older relative to urban areas. This paper questions how levels of social engagement vary across among the elderly in rural Indonesia. A sample of 2750 respondents aged 60 and over was drawn from 10 purposely-selected relatively "old" villages.
