Exploring the impact of globalization on youth, this study delves into how young people navigate identity formation amidst modern challenges. It highlights the significance of youth scenes and social networks, emphasizing personal responsibility in social integration. The research focuses on two contrasting identity strategies: patchwork and otakism, the latter being a novel concept in identity exploration that has not been previously defined or studied empirically. This examination reveals how these strategies reflect adaptability to contemporary life conditions and individual needs.

This heavily illustrated book is an important resource for anyone involved in community health education. Methods and experiences from at least 35 countries are discussed, and the focus is educational rather than medical. Activities suggested for the most effective and enjoyable community education include theatre, drawing, flannel boards, and other low-cost, popular teaching aids. Helping Health Workers Learn provides a people-centred approach to health care and presents strategies for effective community involvement through participatory education.

A revised edition of the English-language edition for Africa, this book has been edited to take into account medical conditions which are more prevalent in Africa, as well as social and cultural factors.
