Nearly a quarter of all children under the age of two in China are left behind in the countryside as parents migrate to urban areas for work. We use a longitudinal survey following young children and their caregivers from 6 to 30 months of age to estimate the effects of maternal migration on development, health, and nutritional outcomes in the critical first stages of life. We find significant negative effects on cognitive development and indicators of dietary quality. Taken together with research showing long-term consequences of early life insults, our results imply that, although the reallocation of labor from rural to urban areas has been a key driver of China’s prosperity in recent decades, it may entail a significant human capital cost for the next generation.

Nepal has a long history of data collection on internal migration, dating back to the 1961 census. At the most recent census in 2011, questions elicited information on lifetime and recent (five-year) migration, duration of residence, duration of absence and reasons for move. 2011 census data show that Nepalese are moderately mobile with an ACMI approaching 15.2%. This has increased sharply from 8.3% in the five years prior to the 2001 Census. Similar to other Asian nations, they display early and concentrated migration profiles, with peaks at age 21 for men and 22 for women, primarily driven by work and study for males and marriage and family reasons for females. With less than a quarter of its population residing in cities, Nepal is at an early stage in the urban transition and is dominated by rural-to-urban migration. Moderately high levels of migration effectiveness coupled with moderate intensities underpin substantial population redistribution. Owing to the mountainous topography of Nepal, spatial patterns of migration have frequently been disrupted by natural disasters, including floods, landslides and earthquakes, as well as conflict during the Maoist insurgency. The continuing exodus of people from rural and impoverished areas of Nepal due to both internal and international migration has contributed to rapid urban growth as well as massive depopulation in rural areas. Government policy is seeking to stem these flows through a programme of decentralisation.

Migrant construction workers from rural communities are the main workforce in the Chinese construction industry and urban development. While far from hometown, most migrant construction workers live in temporary quarters, with poor conditions, on or near the construction site. Although there are standards set by the government to guarantee the basic health and safety conditions of such housing, migrant construction workers in China suffer some of the worst living conditions, even compared to migrant workers in other industries. Health and safety accidents occur often enough in workers’ quarters to provoke young laborers from rural areas to seek employment in the service industry, where better living conditions are available. As a result, serious labor shortages in the construction industry have emerged in China over recent years. There is a significant requirement for the industry to improve the condition of living quarters, by applying both technical and management methods. So far, very few articles have addressed the methods for improving the accommodations for rural migrant construction workers in urban China. This paper aims to develop an innovated integrated prefabricated (prefab) quarter system for the on-site construction workers in China. The paper first discusses the current status of the traditional construction workers’ quarters to disclose the most urgent problems in need of resolution. Barriers that block the innovation of improved workers’ quarters are listed. Then an innovated integrated prefab quarter system is introduced. The feasibility and applicability of the proposed system are discussed. The strengths of the system with regard to the management of health, safety, and environment are analyzed and compared to the traditional system. An actual pilot project is studied as the validation of the prefab quarter system.

For further information contact us at helpdesk@openaire.eudescription Publicationkeyboard_double_arrow_right Article 2012Publisher:Informa UK Limited Authors: J Dargavel;J Dargavel;The first 50 years of Australian forestry education was, like the present, a period of conflict and change in forestry, and of fierce contests about how education should be conducted. Colonial practice, British plantation culture, classic European forestry, imperial practice and American pragmatism created different types of forestry, or 'forestries'. They resulted in contests about how forestry should be organised, who should lead it and how foresters should be educated. The contests were played out in the histories of the Victorian School of Forestry, the Australian Forestry School and the University of Melbourne. They are illustrated in the life of Alfred Oscar Platt Lawrence (1904-1986), one of the six foresters who graduated from both the Victorian School of Forestry and the Australian Forestry School. He had a distinguished career and became Commissioner in 1949 and Chief Commissioner of the Victorian Forests Commission (1956-1968) during a period of convergence of forestry and forestry education. The single model of forestry ended in the contests of the last quarter of a century. Reflections on the future consider the biodiversity rift, the contrast between 'the forest of care' and 'the wood of neglect', globalisation and localism, general education and specialisation.

As the legacy of war, unexploded ordnance (UXO) contaminates a quarter of villages. This paper studies the long-term impact of UXO on education, exploiting the instrumental variable that originates from the geography of U.S. bombing campaigns in Laos. It finds that bombing not only interrupts the education of wartime cohorts, but also has strong and persistent negative impacts on the education of postwar cohorts through the legacy of UXO. Two decades after the U.S. bombing ended, school-age children with exposure to the average level of UXO contamination still had 1.3 fewer years of education. I rule out other mechanisms and show that with UXO in farmland, villagers farm more carefully and slowly. This reduction in farming efficiency demands more labor to sustain subsistence farming. In response, children drop out of school to supplement agricultural labor.

Grose; Nicholas S.G. Williams;Adrian Marshall; Margaret J. Grose; Nicholas S.G. Williams;Abstract Verge gardening is a citizen-led form of public urban greening where residents plant and maintain understorey and trees in the road easement, and it has the potential to significantly increase the diversity and complexity of street greenery which is, most commonly, mown grass and monocultures of street trees. In Melbourne, Australia, two forms of verge gardening – understorey planted by residents and street trees planted by residents– were investigated. The distribution of verge gardens was tested for correlation with a range of urban form and social factors that included the proportion of garden in residential parcels, the proportion of the street set aside as road verge, age of street development, the presence of footpaths, tree cut-outs (tree pits) and social disadvantage. By better understanding the factors associated with verge gardening, we hope planners, urban designers and land managers will be able to better incorporate verge gardening into urban greening strategies and so maximise the biodiversity, ecosystem function and human amenity benefits associated with this significant public activity. We found that verge gardening was common, occurring in almost a quarter (22.1%) of verges and was strongly associated with verges without footpaths, tree cut-outs rather than continuous verges, and verges on local roads rather than collector roads. Neighbourhoods with proportionally more garden had more verge gardening. With the exception of the oldest streets in our study, streets that were newer had more verge gardening than those that were older. The presence of street trees planted by local government was associated with less verge gardening. Verge gardening was less common in neighbourhoods with greater social disadvantage, and spatial contagion increased the likelihood of neighbours having verge gardens. Local government can facilitate verge gardening through engagement, education, adopting alternative street types, using tree cut-outs to better strategic advantage, and targeting areas of social disadvantage.

Abstract Background In 1989, the first major state-wide report into maternity services, known as the Shearman Report after its author, was released in New South Wales, the most populous state in Australia. Aim This paper reflects upon the report and tracks the progress of five of its key recommendations. The recommendations are still some of the major issues facing maternity services across the country. These are: community-based maternity care, rural maternity services, hospital visiting rights for privately practising midwives, obstetric intervention, and midwifery continuity of maternity care. Findings In some ways, much has changed in 25 years including the terminology used in the report, the importance of midwifery continuity of care and the woman-centred nature of many services. However, in other ways, there is still a long way to go to address these major issues. Despite more than a quarter of a century, many recommendations have not been fulfilled, especially access to care in rural areas, rates of obstetric intervention, and the issue of visiting rights for privately practising midwives which has gone backwards. Conclusion A continued and renewed effort is needed to ensure that the forward thinking recommendations of the Shearman Report are ultimately realised for all women and their families.

Bond; Patrick O'Connor; Timothy R. Cavagnaro;Anthelia J. Bond; Patrick O'Connor; Timothy R. Cavagnaro;Abstract Voluntary incentive programs are widely used to generate conservation actions on private land. Although there is a growing body of research about factors that influence landholder participation in incentive programs, studies generally conceptualise landholders in agricultural landscapes as owner-occupier, farming individuals or families. Few studies have considered participation by absentee landholders and fewer still have recognised group landholders (e.g. non-government organisations or community groups) as potential incentive program participants. We examined participation in a conservation stewardship tender (reverse auction) in South Australia to identify the diversity within participants, and particularly to evaluate the extent of participation by absentee landholders and groups. A diverse set of landholders participated, where nearly a quarter of participants were absentee landholders, and a small component were groups. Although small in number, groups were shown to be important because they were likely to offer larger land areas in the stewardship tender. With very little known about how absentee and group landholders may differ from their counterparts, further research is recommended to inform incentive program design. We recommend that incentive programs consider landholder diversity in order to achieve effective conservation in agricultural landscapes.

Nearly a quarter of all children under the age of two in China are left behind in the countryside as parents migrate to urban areas for work. We use a longitudinal survey following young children and their caregivers from 6 to 30 months of age to estimate the effects of maternal migration on development, health, and nutritional outcomes in the critical first stages of life. We find significant negative effects on cognitive development and indicators of dietary quality. Taken together with research showing long-term consequences of early life insults, our results imply that, although the reallocation of labor from rural to urban areas has been a key driver of China’s prosperity in recent decades, it may entail a significant human capital cost for the next generation.

Nepal has a long history of data collection on internal migration, dating back to the 1961 census. At the most recent census in 2011, questions elicited information on lifetime and recent (five-year) migration, duration of residence, duration of absence and reasons for move. 2011 census data show that Nepalese are moderately mobile with an ACMI approaching 15.2%. This has increased sharply from 8.3% in the five years prior to the 2001 Census. Similar to other Asian nations, they display early and concentrated migration profiles, with peaks at age 21 for men and 22 for women, primarily driven by work and study for males and marriage and family reasons for females. With less than a quarter of its population residing in cities, Nepal is at an early stage in the urban transition and is dominated by rural-to-urban migration. Moderately high levels of migration effectiveness coupled with moderate intensities underpin substantial population redistribution. Owing to the mountainous topography of Nepal, spatial patterns of migration have frequently been disrupted by natural disasters, including floods, landslides and earthquakes, as well as conflict during the Maoist insurgency. The continuing exodus of people from rural and impoverished areas of Nepal due to both internal and international migration has contributed to rapid urban growth as well as massive depopulation in rural areas. Government policy is seeking to stem these flows through a programme of decentralisation.

Migrant construction workers from rural communities are the main workforce in the Chinese construction industry and urban development. While far from hometown, most migrant construction workers live in temporary quarters, with poor conditions, on or near the construction site. Although there are standards set by the government to guarantee the basic health and safety conditions of such housing, migrant construction workers in China suffer some of the worst living conditions, even compared to migrant workers in other industries. Health and safety accidents occur often enough in workers’ quarters to provoke young laborers from rural areas to seek employment in the service industry, where better living conditions are available. As a result, serious labor shortages in the construction industry have emerged in China over recent years. There is a significant requirement for the industry to improve the condition of living quarters, by applying both technical and management methods. So far, very few articles have addressed the methods for improving the accommodations for rural migrant construction workers in urban China. This paper aims to develop an innovated integrated prefabricated (prefab) quarter system for the on-site construction workers in China. The paper first discusses the current status of the traditional construction workers’ quarters to disclose the most urgent problems in need of resolution. Barriers that block the innovation of improved workers’ quarters are listed. Then an innovated integrated prefab quarter system is introduced. The feasibility and applicability of the proposed system are discussed. The strengths of the system with regard to the management of health, safety, and environment are analyzed and compared to the traditional system. An actual pilot project is studied as the validation of the prefab quarter system.

For further information contact us at helpdesk@openaire.eudescription Publicationkeyboard_double_arrow_right Article 2012Publisher:Informa UK Limited Authors: J Dargavel;J Dargavel;The first 50 years of Australian forestry education was, like the present, a period of conflict and change in forestry, and of fierce contests about how education should be conducted. Colonial practice, British plantation culture, classic European forestry, imperial practice and American pragmatism created different types of forestry, or 'forestries'. They resulted in contests about how forestry should be organised, who should lead it and how foresters should be educated. The contests were played out in the histories of the Victorian School of Forestry, the Australian Forestry School and the University of Melbourne. They are illustrated in the life of Alfred Oscar Platt Lawrence (1904-1986), one of the six foresters who graduated from both the Victorian School of Forestry and the Australian Forestry School. He had a distinguished career and became Commissioner in 1949 and Chief Commissioner of the Victorian Forests Commission (1956-1968) during a period of convergence of forestry and forestry education. The single model of forestry ended in the contests of the last quarter of a century. Reflections on the future consider the biodiversity rift, the contrast between 'the forest of care' and 'the wood of neglect', globalisation and localism, general education and specialisation.

As the legacy of war, unexploded ordnance (UXO) contaminates a quarter of villages. This paper studies the long-term impact of UXO on education, exploiting the instrumental variable that originates from the geography of U.S. bombing campaigns in Laos. It finds that bombing not only interrupts the education of wartime cohorts, but also has strong and persistent negative impacts on the education of postwar cohorts through the legacy of UXO. Two decades after the U.S. bombing ended, school-age children with exposure to the average level of UXO contamination still had 1.3 fewer years of education. I rule out other mechanisms and show that with UXO in farmland, villagers farm more carefully and slowly. This reduction in farming efficiency demands more labor to sustain subsistence farming. In response, children drop out of school to supplement agricultural labor.

Grose; Nicholas S.G. Williams;Adrian Marshall; Margaret J. Grose; Nicholas S.G. Williams;Abstract Verge gardening is a citizen-led form of public urban greening where residents plant and maintain understorey and trees in the road easement, and it has the potential to significantly increase the diversity and complexity of street greenery which is, most commonly, mown grass and monocultures of street trees. In Melbourne, Australia, two forms of verge gardening – understorey planted by residents and street trees planted by residents– were investigated. The distribution of verge gardens was tested for correlation with a range of urban form and social factors that included the proportion of garden in residential parcels, the proportion of the street set aside as road verge, age of street development, the presence of footpaths, tree cut-outs (tree pits) and social disadvantage. By better understanding the factors associated with verge gardening, we hope planners, urban designers and land managers will be able to better incorporate verge gardening into urban greening strategies and so maximise the biodiversity, ecosystem function and human amenity benefits associated with this significant public activity. We found that verge gardening was common, occurring in almost a quarter (22.1%) of verges and was strongly associated with verges without footpaths, tree cut-outs rather than continuous verges, and verges on local roads rather than collector roads. Neighbourhoods with proportionally more garden had more verge gardening. With the exception of the oldest streets in our study, streets that were newer had more verge gardening than those that were older. The presence of street trees planted by local government was associated with less verge gardening. Verge gardening was less common in neighbourhoods with greater social disadvantage, and spatial contagion increased the likelihood of neighbours having verge gardens. Local government can facilitate verge gardening through engagement, education, adopting alternative street types, using tree cut-outs to better strategic advantage, and targeting areas of social disadvantage.

Abstract Background In 1989, the first major state-wide report into maternity services, known as the Shearman Report after its author, was released in New South Wales, the most populous state in Australia. Aim This paper reflects upon the report and tracks the progress of five of its key recommendations. The recommendations are still some of the major issues facing maternity services across the country. These are: community-based maternity care, rural maternity services, hospital visiting rights for privately practising midwives, obstetric intervention, and midwifery continuity of maternity care. Findings In some ways, much has changed in 25 years including the terminology used in the report, the importance of midwifery continuity of care and the woman-centred nature of many services. However, in other ways, there is still a long way to go to address these major issues. Despite more than a quarter of a century, many recommendations have not been fulfilled, especially access to care in rural areas, rates of obstetric intervention, and the issue of visiting rights for privately practising midwives which has gone backwards. Conclusion A continued and renewed effort is needed to ensure that the forward thinking recommendations of the Shearman Report are ultimately realised for all women and their families.

Bond; Patrick O'Connor; Timothy R. Cavagnaro;Anthelia J. Bond; Patrick O'Connor; Timothy R. Cavagnaro;Abstract Voluntary incentive programs are widely used to generate conservation actions on private land. Although there is a growing body of research about factors that influence landholder participation in incentive programs, studies generally conceptualise landholders in agricultural landscapes as owner-occupier, farming individuals or families. Few studies have considered participation by absentee landholders and fewer still have recognised group landholders (e.g. non-government organisations or community groups) as potential incentive program participants. We examined participation in a conservation stewardship tender (reverse auction) in South Australia to identify the diversity within participants, and particularly to evaluate the extent of participation by absentee landholders and groups. A diverse set of landholders participated, where nearly a quarter of participants were absentee landholders, and a small component were groups. Although small in number, groups were shown to be important because they were likely to offer larger land areas in the stewardship tender. With very little known about how absentee and group landholders may differ from their counterparts, further research is recommended to inform incentive program design. We recommend that incentive programs consider landholder diversity in order to achieve effective conservation in agricultural landscapes.
