F Njahîra Wangarî - Book Chapter

Abstract
"This chapter blends African oral and written narratives, lived experiences with a genetic chronic disability and a Roman Catholic upbringing. These will be interrogated to illustrate the role of alternative explanations in influencing advocacy and activism for the lives, wellbeing, dignity and inclusion of persons with disabilities. Particularly, this chapter is an exploration of self-identity and how persons with disabilities are conditioned to view ourselves in specific ways while highlighting alternative perceptions available is presented by the author. It engages the works of several African and African-descendent authors who feature persons with disabilities as characters in their books and relies on narrative prosthesis as the basis for this engagement."

Event Description

United Nations Population Fund is pleased to invite you for the virtual launch and dissemination of the UNFPA's study on Sex Ratio at Birth in India-Recent Trends and Patterns, by Prof. P. M. Kulkarni. The virtual launch will take place on 30 July, 2020 @ 12 pm.
 
The study analyses various estimates of sex ratio at birth (SRB) in India and suggests the most plausible level of SRB estimate based on correction factor. The study estimates the number of girls missing at birth and number of girls missing due to excess female mortality. It also examines SRB by birth order and previous sex composition of the living children and examines the association of gender biased sex selection with various factors. 


 
We look forward to having you at the dissemination event.
