Volunteer scholarship in Zimbabwe tends to focus on volunteer motivations, volunteers’ role in community development and, to a lesser extent, volunteers’ challenges. In this study, we captured the lived experiences of volunteers in the current milieu of socio-economic challenges. We discovered that the major challenges affecting community volunteers in the Chegutu District are poverty and vulnerability, burnout, too much work, lack of community appreciation of volunteerism and lack of adequate volunteer paraphernalia. We move beyond other studies to explore how volunteers are coping with the challenges. Volunteers are reliant on spiritual support and encouragement by some community members. The study adopts a qualitative approach with data collected using in-depth interviews and focus group discussion. The findings are presented and discussed thematically.

This study aimed to assess the representation of literary texts and their actual practice at Grades 9 and 10 in general secondary schools in Ethiopia. The study employed descriptive research design involving both qualitative and quantitative methods. Participants were selected purposively. Textbook analysis, classroom observation and focus group discussion were data sources. The textbook and classroom observation data were analyzed using descriptive statistics. Whereas, the focus group discussion data were analyzed qualitatively using thematic analysis. Findings showed that poems took the lion’s share in the literary texts. However, short stories, novel extracts, moral stories, fables and true stories were scarcely found in the textbooks. Besides, the findings revealed that language skills and language areas incorporated in the literary texts focused more on developing reading and speaking skills. Moreover, the findings obtained from focus group discussion and classroom observation showed that teachers were not regularly practising literary texts due to teachers’ lack of pedagogical skills, students’ lack of interest to learn literary texts and the difficulty nature of the literary texts.

Summary The majority of research on factors associated with women participation in physical activity (PA) has been in developed countries with limited research in developing countries. Few women in Malaysia are active at the recommended levels for health, and activity rates are less than developed countries. Little research has focused specially on physically active Malaysian women and the factors that contribute to them becoming and staying active in PA programs. This lack of knowledge hinders the tailored development and implementation of PA programs to meet their needs. The aim of this study was to identify the factors of participation in PA programs for Malaysian women. The social–ecological model was used to investigate and theme the factors. Focus group discussion was conducted with participants in six PA programs targeted specifically to women. Thirty-seven women were involved in the focus group discussion, with ages ranging from 19 to 82 years. Inductive and deductive content analysis was conducted from verbatim transcripts using NVivo. Inductive content analysis allowed raw data and second-order themes to emerge. Findings revealed social support structures, tailored programs for women, and location were key contributors that encouraged women to participate in these programs. The similarity in contributors between women in non-western and western countries signifies a prime opportunity for bi-lateral relationships to be formed to enable the enhancement of program development relevant to different ethnicities and cultures within or across countries.

The study entitled “ The institutional empowerment building of the crops farmer on rehabilitation zone of Meru Betiri national park in East Java” takes the fact that since the initialization of the Ecosystem Returns (PE) in 1999 in the rehabilitation zone until the year 2017, there is no optimum result of the program. Instead of getting greener, the zone becomes more dry, arid, and wither. The problem of the study is that what causes the PE program in rehabilitation zone ran less optimum? How to build the institutional empowerment of crops farmer? The purpose of this study is to identify factors that cause the less optimum of PE program at the rehabilitation zone and to formulate the model of optimum institutional empowerment of crops farmers. The primary data were through observation, interview, and Focus Group Discussion (FGD), while the secondary data were from a mixed document of Green’s ecological theory and Nort’s institution theory. Less optimum of PE program is due to the cultural switch from abstinence to anthropocentric, the scarcity of farming land, and market intervention. The model of institutional empowerment of crops farmer is the cooperation and synergy interaction among the actors.
