This article discusses counseling and internship programs for people with special needs that are run by the Surabaya City Government. As mandated by the 1945 Constitution, it is the state's obligation to protect the rights of persons with special needs. Including, their rights in the scope of employment. The Surabaya City Government prepared an apprenticeship program for them. Before that, there was a counseling process for each person with special needs. In the implementation of national development aimed at realizing a just and prosperous society based on Pancasila and the 1945 Constitution, people with special needs are part of Indonesian society who also have the same position, rights, obligations and roles. In many cases, apprentices are then recruited by the company. This program is carried out in collaboration with a number of institutions or companies in Surabaya. The theory used in this article is counseling and public policy. While the method used is qualitative, with a literature review approach. As a result, what the Surabaya City Government is doing reinforces the psychological aspects of school graduates with special needs. During the internship, they gained valuable experience and boosted the confidence of each participant. Even if they are not immediately recruited to work at the place, the post-apprenticeship certificate they have, can be their reinforcement when they want to apply to other companies. So, the benefits of this program are in the aspect of training for them, and promotion of the performance of those who are not less than those who do not have some special needs.

This paper is to examine the role academic libraries can play to organize and make indigenous knowledge accessible for national development. The target audience for the paper are academic librarians in Ghana, researchers of African studies in Ghana and other stakeholders. This is a qualitative study with data from interviews with the librarians and a desk-top literature review. Academic librarians in Ghana recognize the importance of indigenous knowledge organization, but little has been done by way of research. Most academic libraries in Ghana have the basic resources to manage indigenous knowledge. Academic librarians need to be proactive in their collaborative efforts to manage indigenous knowledge. Academic librarians in Ghana should be proactive towards effective management of indigenous knowledge, for easy accessibility. Again, academic libraries need to be well resourced to manage indigenous knowledge. Finally, academic libraries need to create awareness about the importance of indigenous knowledge using different media platforms to all stakeholders.

The research entitled: "Maqasid al-Shari'ah Analysis of the Role of the Surabaya City Government in Realizing Child Friendly Cities" is a field research that aims to answer the question how the role of the Surabaya City Government in realizing Child Friendly Cities through established public policies from the perspective of the maq??id al-shar?'ah. Research data were collected using interview and documentation techniques and then analyzed using descriptive analysis techniques with a deductive mindset. The results of the study concluded that the Surabaya City Government was very active in realizing Child Friendly Cities through the protection and fulfillment of children's rights, which was clearly seen from the existence of various public policies that were established to support institutional strengthening and fulfillment of the five Child Friendly Cities clusters.The role of the Surabaya City Government is in accordance with the concept of maqasid al-shari'ah because the determination of public policy is based on the welfare of children. This is proven by the elements of hifz al-din and hifz al-nasl in the public policy regarding civil rights and freedom, family environment, and alternative protection. In addition, there are elements of hifz al-nafs and hifz al-aql in public policies regarding institutional strengthening and the five Child Friendly Cities clusters, although they are actually less than perfect due to the absence of the hifz al-mal elements in them.

This chapter examines the concepts and issues of SME techno-entrepreneurship in ICT clusters. An integrative literature review was adopted and three purposively selected ICT clusters were observed. The chapter provides a conceptual framing of techno-entrepreneurship practices and identifies attributes of SME techno-entrepreneurship in Nigeria, its relevance to the ICT ecosystem growth as well as national development. The chapter identifies a frugal mindset, frugal processes, networking, innovative behaviour, and frugal outcome as key attributes of SME techno-entrepreneurs operating out of ICT clusters. By linking techno-entrepreneurship with frugal innovation, the chapter further proposes a model of SME techno-entrepreneurial practices in ICT clusters which highlights the various stages and processes of cluster SME techno-entrepreneurship. The paper concludes with a section on challenges and opportunities of SME techno-entrepreneurship in Nigeria.

In newly industrialised countries in Asia, programmes to support the establishment of young farmers are still emerging. This in particularly true in Thailand, despite the declared importance of supporting young farmers in national development strategies. The aim of the present study was to analyse policy tools to help young people start farming in Thailand. First, we reviewed existing policy tools in Thailand and in other countries. Based on this review, a series of workshops were held with young rural people and young farmers in Thailand to assess the most promising policy tools. During the workshops, participants discussed a set of 22 policy tools designed to support access to land, capital and markets, capacity-building and making farming a more attractive profession. The workshop participants thought almost all the proposed policy tools would be useful but gave priority to subsidies to start farming and to secure land leases. Reversing the current, very rapid decrease in the number of young farmers in Thailand will require ambitious programmes, which could not only focus on helping young people who are already interested in farming but also appeal to a broader public by making farming more attractive.

Health services provided by foundations in the pre-Republic period became more systematic and organized after the foundation of the Turkish Republic. Healthcare services, offered by the state in the period between 1920 and 1980 and accepted as one of the main duties of the state, became one of the areas in which the state wanted to withdraw after 1980. As a result of the neoliberal wave in the globalized world, policies aimed at downsizing healthcare services in Turkey have been developed and implemented since the 1980s. Accelerated downsizing practices by the Health Transformation Project (2003) continues today. In this study, literature review and descriptive analysis method were used.The aim of this study is to discuss the downsizing practices in the health sector of Turkey. This debate will take place over two periods (before 2002 and after 2002). Especially, the post-2002 period and works on behalf of health sector downsizing in this period will be discussed as to whether there is downsizing or not.

Managed care's promises of improved cost efficiency and continuity of care to the general population are being tested by the higher demands of Medicare and Medicaid populations, including many chronically ill individuals. By examining and comparing satisfaction among chronically ill and healthier enrollees and between Medicaid and non-Medicaid enrollees, the authors develop an understanding of how satisfaction among the chronically ill provides assessments that are important to all enrollees. The authors examine public policy initiatives in the context of the special needs of the chronically ill to determine whether the initiatives are likely to help generate improvements with respect to aspects of care and access that are most important to the chronically ill and ultimately to enrollees in general.

What was once a descriptor—Chicago as the last major American city government governed by a political machine—has become a trope, an all-purpose means of explaining public policy aims, achievements, and failures. The nearer-to-reality narrative that captures the essence of Chicago public policy trends in the last generation is neoliberalism. During the long tenure of Mayor Richard M. Daley Chicago’s demolition of high-rise public housing developments, public school restructuring, and long-term leasing of public assets both tracked broader neoliberal policy trends, and in some cases, represented the leading edge of such innovations. Nevertheless, many journalists and some scholars insist on interpreting Chicago politics and policy through the lens of personal corruption and partisan cronyism presumed to be the fundamental attributes of ward-based Democratic Party politics

This paper reviews the literature on attitudes toward the disabled as manifested by both the disabled and the nondisabled, and describes the three most commonly used methods of effecting attitude change. The literature review provides a basis for a proposed implication for counseling disabled persons. The counseling process is examined in terms of the perception of self as the key variable, how this variable is influenced by the attitudes disabled individuals hold of themselves, and the interaction of this with the attitudes that others hold towards them.

Purpose: This paper aims to gather information about the management of ZISWAF through literature review. Methods: This study uses a qualitative approach to describe findings from facts and reality in society with a phenomenology approach. A literature review and documentation are conducted to collect the data. Finding: ZISWAF funds can be maximized for the economic development of the people, but currently these funds are still much engaged in the area of social service activities, charity assistance, compensation for orphans, Madrasah development, and others. Even tend to ignore the interests of other Muslims such as legal aid, child protection, public policy advocacy, women's empowerment, and several other important agendas, still lacking support from the utilization of philanthropic funds in addition to efforts to find out the potential of Islamic philanthropy and its impact on the economic development of the people, especially poor people or poor people.
