Abstract. Although the vulnerability indicator method has been applied to several data-scarce regions, a missing linkage with damage grades had hindered its application for loss evaluation to complement disaster risk reduction efforts. To address this gap, we present a review of physical vulnerability indicators and flood damage models to gain insights on best practice. Thereafter, we present a conceptual framework for linking the vulnerability indicators and damage grades using three phases (i) developing a vulnerability index, (ii) identifying regional damage grades, and (iii) linking vulnerability index classes with damage grades. The vulnerability index comprehensively integrates elements of the hazard using a Building Impact Index (BII) on one hand, and exposure, susceptibility and local protection elements using a Building Resistance Index (BRI) on the other hand. For the damage grades, local expert assessments are used for identifying and categorizing frequently observed regional damage patterns. Finally, by means of synthetic what-if analysis, experts are asked to estimate damage grades for each interval of the BII and class of BRI to develop a vulnerability curve. The proposed conceptual framework can be used for damage prediction in data-scarce regions to support loss assessment and to provide guidance for disaster risk reduction.

This study describes the premises underlying Voremetur, a project conducted in the context of higher education. It hypothesises the need to support a competence education method adapted to new educational formulas (from e- to m-learning), new educational challenges (e-science, big data) and the convergent competences now characterised as info-communication literacy, which has favoured the transition from edu-communication to multiliteracy. Such competences should be organised into competence programmes, where the assessment of the beneficial results for learners and the university should be included as an essential element. The article discusses an assessment model for new literacies, including its conceptual framework, ideal evaluation tools and conversion into an ad hoc questionnaire. Lastly, the paper describes model application to a target group and analyses the results most relevant to information behaviour.

By the end of the 20th century, the influence of economic globalization had impacted many aspects of society, including in particular cultural heritage. Additionally, economic globalization has brought a ‘compression’ of the cultures of different ethnic groups and regions around the world. Due to the loss of cultural confidence and economic benefits, many historical areas with cultural and social significance are no longer protected and valued. If this deficit is to be addressed, then the evaluation of heritage value is an important step in establishing effective conservation policies. China’s Grand Canal is a case in point. The loss of historical culture in the past 30 years, often due to the increasing numbers of both large and small developments, has given rise to the forfeit and distortion of many historically significant areas of China’s Grand Canal towns and cities. This research proposes a qualitative and quantitative methodology to develop a comprehensive assessment model of social value with respect to heritage value. The methodology selected conceptual framework, and questionnaire surveys as major approaches to the development of the research and is applied to the Grand Canal towns of Nanyang, Wuzhen, Tongli and Nanxun. The conceptual framework is used to establish the indicators and hypotheses for the evaluation of social value in order to develop a comprehensive assessment model for sustainable heritage management.

ABSTRACT Objective: to understand the structure and dynamics of families in the late stage of the life cycle that have a member with intellectual disability. Method: qualitative research using the Calgary Family Assessment Model as methodological framework. The study had 38 participants, distributed into 10 families that had a member with intellectual disability and whose parents were elderly. The interviews were analyzed with content analysis technique. Results: the following analytical categories were evidenced: “living with intellectual disability”, “communication as a strategy for encounter”, “family isolation and the need for support” and “concerns about care in the future”. Conclusion: families in the late life cycle who had a member with intellectual disability are arranged in a structure that overloads a single caregiver (mother), has little support network, uses communication as an instrument for understanding themselves and the other, besides having difficulties in projecting the future.

ABSTRACT Objective: To understand the structure, development, and functionality of the family of the elderly victim of violence. Method: Descriptive research with a qualitative approach, based on the Calgary Family Assessment Model. Four elderly people who suffered violence and their family members were assessed at home, from October to November 2019. Data analysis was based on the genogram and ecomap, as proposed in the model. Results: It was found that the members of the four families had low schooling and financial difficulties. As for the social support network, the neighbors, the health unit and the Church stood out. The members of each family nucleus expressed feelings of fear, insecurity, anger, nervousness, sadness and impotence, resulting from the conflict between the couple. Final considerations: In the assessed families, weaknesses and potentialities in the structure, development and functioning are highlighted, which must be considered in the elaboration of the care plan.

Objective: to report the use of the Calgary Family Assessment Model (CFAM) in family interviews in an infant death survey in two counties in southern Rio Grande do Sul state.  Methods: a descriptive, exploratory and qualitative approach study performed in 2007 in two southern Rio Grande do Sul counties. One family in each county who had gone through infant death was surveyed by means of home visitations through the use of the CFAM.  The study has a qualitative approach and the pieces of information obtained during the interviews, genogram and ecomap preparation, as well as those collected on the infant death survey form, were considered for data analysis. The study has been approved by the Committee of Ethics in Research of the Medicine Faculty of the Federal University of Pelotas (063/07).  Results: the Calgary Family Assessment Model proved to be useful in approaching families that mourned the early loss of one of their members, bringing together the nursing professional and the family, as well as strengthening the bonds between the family and the public welfare system. Conclusion: this study led us to the conclusion that the nursing professional, by means of a systemic family care approach, is able to provide a broader assistance to family needs. Descriptors: infant mortality; nursing; family; public health.

Food borne disease (FBD) is a disease through consumption of contaminated food. Theproblem is that, school children are vulnerable to FBD because of household food contamination. Thisindicates the family as a food handler hygiene mainly the mother who prepare the food needed to beimproved. Most common FBD is diarrhea, one of the danger is that the child’s body fluids are expelledout through the stool this can cause dehydration or even death. Family plays very important role in thehandling of FBD first before being taken to the health service. This can be known through family studiesapproach CFAM (Calgary Family assessment model). The design of this study was descriptive eksplorativewith a sample of 35 respondents; the 4th graders and their parents (17 persons) and 5th graders and theirparents (18) in Jatirejoyoso Kepanjen Elemetary School through purposive sampling technique. Thedata taken were demographic and CFAM consists of the structural assessment components, developmentas well as family function. The family in first handling of food borne disease largely was not routine(71.4%). Ways of solving the problems mostly by the head of the family (74.3%). Responsible care forsick children mostly (57.2%) by only one parent (father / mother). Follow up during sick mostly madean effort (curative) as much as 85.7%. Family belief the majority (80%) considered that the first treatmentat home was not needed because it could be taken directly to the health service. Health workersare expected to provide guidance for families through health volunteers on first handling practices ofFBD. While schools are expected to perform optimization of UKS (School Health Unit) program toprovide health education about the prevention and first treatment of FBD toward the school community.
