Preserving Historical Structures, Motivations of Property Owners, and the Effects on Community Socio-Economic Renewal in Japan by Deryk Cameron Bliss

“…As a result, these communities have continued to rapidly decline, resulting in an estimated 8 million abandoned or underutilized buildings throughout the country, including perhaps up to 1 million extant vernacular-built heritage structures.  The loss of these structures and their attendant use values, artisanal techniques and practices used in their construction and maintenance, as well as the more intangible aspects of their presence in a community, represents a profound challenge which evades simple solutions.  …”

American Indian community engagement and the structural and social determinants of health: results from the THRIVE assessment by Kellie Webb, Sadie Posey, Katherine Hirchak, Emily Beamon, Kelley Milligan, Sharon Wagon, Bethany Fatupaito, Allyson Kelley

“…This paper presents the community-driven adaptation process and results for the Tool for Health and Resilience in Vulnerable Environments (THRIVE) assessment, a social justice and equity-focused screening tool, in one reservation-based American Indian community in the US.MethodsUsing principles of community-engaged research (CER) and community-based participatory research (CBPR), the authors describe the importance of co-creating data collection tools with community members to document the social and structural determinants of health. Authors describe a step-by-step approach to document inequities; this includes (1) recognizing the need to document inequities, (2) identifying existing tools to measure inequities, (3) adapting tools and piloting them with members of the community, (4) refining the tool based on community feedback, and (5) administering the tool to address needs identified.ResultsSurvey data from the THRIVE assessment and community-engaged process (N = 100) documented the social and structural determinants of health. …”
