The social infrastructure and needs of the various communities coexisting in a city are associated in considerably substantial and strong relationship with its surrounding environment. There are numerous parameters which influence the social infrastructure and community needs with respect to its integration with the land use of that city. Accessibility of proper terminals for public transportation, institutes, and hospitals parks etc. These parameters are studied along with parallel analysis of the total area covered and existing population of the city. Social infrastructures in a city have a large impact on the quality of life of the people in the urban centers. SAS Nagar (Mohali) is a counter magnet city of Chandigarh and one of the the most well-known planned city in Punjab, India. Mohali started developing as a counter magnet in the early 1990’s. It was initially known as Mohali village, a part of the Union Territory of Chandigarh. Mohali inhere with phases/ sectors including the new industrial areas, commercial centers and the educational institutions like as C-DAC Mohali in the vicinity of the residential areas.

The assessment study of community infrastructure and social needs of Mohali includes various types of operational functioning parameters for study like; directional analysis, population wise analysis and area wise analysis. These social and community infrastructural needs have their own norms and standards for the city level services and as well as neighbourhood level assistance, which categorize their accessibility for the integrated land use pattern and population for services. By using open source GIS, the served areas and un-served areas along with their names are bring classified properly as per the given parameters.

AbstractThe purpose of this study was to determine the strength of the relationship between a retrospective evaluation of the experienced social support given by grandparents and the material status of the family with the quality of life of the grown-up grandchildren in families of different structures. The formulated expectations have been verified with the Social Support Scale (SSS), Student’s Life Satisfaction Scale (SLSS) and an individual personal survey. The obtained results show that in families of single mothers, the emotional and informative support offered by grandparents was a significant factor improving the quality of the life of the grandchildren. In a complete family, however, the significant forms of support from grandparents were esteem support and its other forms, except for informative support. Moreover, the material wealth of the original family was shown to be an important predictor of the evaluation of the quality of life of the grandchildren; it was judged more negatively by adolescent children of single mothers.

This article examines the relationship between gender and cancer survivorship. I argue that gender is as critical as a category of analysis for understanding cancer survivorship as it is missing from survivorship studies, particularly as concerns the identificatory basis of survivor culture and clinical studies regarding survivors’ quality of life (QOL). This under-studied question of the gendering of survivorship is critical because the consequences of the social production of disease is far-reaching, from the nature of medical research to social awareness, to funding to the well-being of cancer survivors themselves.

Abstract The district “New Praga” is located on the right-bank of Warsaw in North Praga which is one of the oldest districts of the city. The citizens of this district, where an analyzed building quarter is located, are people with a lower social status than the rest of Warsaw’s population, who benefit from the social assistance (30%); moreover, there are a large number of crimes and high unemployment among young people in this area. These data show how difficult is to modernize this area because the improvement of a construction tissue is not enough to fully help the local community. Financial resources are needed to increase the level of education that allows finding new jobs and improves the quality of life. Afterwards, the modernization of tenements should be taken care for.
