The purpose of this study is to examine emerging literature for conflict resolution approaches through martial arts. Martial arts involvement is believed to provide positive learning opportunities for youth in general, as well as with regard to specific target groups. In particular, this study focuses on the cause and resolution of conflict philosophy in Tong-Il Moo-Do Martial Arts. To be precise, TIMD philosophy has categorized the root cause of conflict into three reasons: breakdown of interaction, ignoring the higher purpose, and accumulation of conflict.

Suicide travel, in which potential suicide candidates visit certain destinations to perform physician-assisted suicide (PAS), is an emerging topic in tourism. Despite noted discrepancies between suicide travel and traditional definitions of tourism, PAS practices in tourism have gained the attention of scholars and practitioners. This type of travel is inherently complex, and its segmentation remains ambiguous. This study examines a sample of PAS-related videos and viewer comments to identify relevant travel segments. Based on two rounds of thematic content analysis, the resultant segmentation offers a preliminary perspective on this emerging market. Theoretically, this study is among the first to provide a comprehensive overview of the roles of PAS practices in tourism in terms of specific target groups. Practically, the findings offer novel insight for industry practitioners and policy makers.

Addressing the need to identify distinctive skills for social entrepreneurs, we conducted an exploratory, qualitative study based on interviews with social entrepreneurs. We identified seven skills, three out of which have not been previously mentioned by entrepreneurship and social entrepreneurship scholars. These skills include an ability to induce behavioral change and educate target groups; co-creation with multiple stakeholders; and developing solutions that aim to address the root cause of a social problem. Based on these findings, we provide recommendations for further research, as well as how the identified skills can be taught in experiential learning format.

Abstract Background Recently the Italian Ministry of Health, following WHO and ACOG example, recommend that healthy pregnant women practice at least 150 minutes per week of moderate intensity activity (3-6 METs). The study aimed to evaluate if women meet guidelines and to identify potential target groups for public health intervention. Methods From November 2015 to November 2017, 390 women completed, just after delivery at an Italian hospital, a questionnaire about sports and exercise before and during pregnancy. Physical activity (PA) was classified according to intensity in Metabolic Equivalent Task (MET). Women were considered sufficiently active when reaching the recommended PA levels. Results 52% of women practiced any sport at anytime during pregnancy, with a higher prevalence in the II trimester (45%), while only 30% of women kept exercising throughout all trimesters. When including time and sport intensity, only 4,6%, 6,4% and 4,6% of women reached the recommended PA levels in the I, II and III trimester. Sufficiently active women practiced mainly swimming and walking, two highly recommend sports in pregnancy. Factors favour PA practice were Italian nationality, higher educational level, work, BMI, attending birthing classes and being active before pregnancy. However, even without contraindications, 26% of women active before pregnancy stopped exercising in pregnancy and only 15% achieved recommended PA levels. 58% of sedentary women before pregnancy, kept being sedentary in pregnancy. Conclusions Although half of women practiced sport during pregnancy, only a few were sufficiently regular and active. As pregnancy is an ideal time to adopt or to reinforce a healthy lifestyle, public health interventions should be strengthen considering also specific target groups. Key messages Effective public health policies should be identified and implemented to favour an active lifestyle during pregnancy. Specific target groups less prone to meet PA guidelines should also be addressed.

ABSTRAKCommunity Service Activities (PPM) in Genteng Village, Sukasari Subdistrict, Sumedang Regency was initiated because the agrarian conflict had happened in that location. The conflict resolution were relatively slow due to the lack of understanding, knowledge and skills of the actors in conducting conflict resolution. In contrary, conflict resolution is clearly written inLaw Number 7 of 2012 about Managing of Social Conflict. In addition, the location of PPM also has a high potential for conflicts, especially conflicts in the useof natural resources. This must be anticipated by encouraging existing communities and local institutions to worktogether to prevent conflict and create a harmonious environment. The purpose of this PPM activity is to increase the knowledge, understanding and skills of target groups in conducting conflict resolution based on Law No. 7 of 2012 about Managing of Social Conflict, to increasethe knowledge, understanding and skills of target groups in conducting community-based conflict resolution and to encourage target groups to prevent conflicts andcan creat a harmony in the village. The target groups in this PPM activity are the farming community, village government and local institutions in the Genteng Village. The method of implementing PPM activities was conducted in several stages, such as the preparation phase, the assessment stage, the plan of treatment stage, and the activity implementation stage.

With the progress of Digital Inclusion, it becomes important to address marginalised groups that face specific barriers in being part of the information society. From 2009 to 2011 within the framework of the nation-wide Initiative Internet erfahren, funded by the German Federal Ministry of Economics, Stiftung Digitale Chancen has accompanied three pilot projects and researched the hindrances and motivations of specific target groups including young migrants from Russia, women in the low-wage sector and disabled elderly people, regarding their use of information and communication technology and related skills. This article describes the teaching methodologies in the training provided in nonformal education settings, exposes the different evaluation methods and sums up the results. A special focus in the discussion is given to the role of the teacher and the relationship between teacher and students as there turned out to be similarities in all three target groups. Understanding the balance between the training and abilities and preferences of the learners will facilitate the further development of training appropriate to those who are still digitally excluded.Keywords: specific target groups in Digital Inclusion; migrants; disabled persons; low-wage sector; barriers towards formal education and technology; student motivation; trainer student relationship(Published: 19 December 2012)Citation: Research in Learning Technology 2012, 20: 18700 - http://dx.doi.org/10.3402/rlt.v20i0.18700
