Yet few studies examine the drivers of alcohol use among fathers or the role of gendered expectations and sociocultural norms on use, especially in low-resource settings like Kenya. Understanding why fathers drink, the consequences of use, and barriers to care is key to designing scalable, responsive interventions. In Eldoret, Kenya, community members, leaders, providers, and fathers experiencing problematic alcohol use participated in interviews and focus groups. Participants discussed reasons for drinking, its impacts, and barriers to care. Using the framework method, transcripts were coded and summarised using the socioecological model. Reasons and consequences of alcohol use emerged across individual, interpersonal, and sociocultural levels. Individually, fathers used alcohol to escape distress with consequences on physical and mental health. At the family level, alcohol was used to avoid conflict, contributing to risk for violence and poor child outcomes. Socioculturally, drinking was shaped by gender norms, with consequences like stigma and loss of social status, which reinforced shame and isolation. Barriers to care included lack of awareness, poor service access, and stigma. Intervention and implementation strategies must address avoidant coping, masculinity norms, and local resource constraints.","PeriodicalId":12735,"journal":{"name":"Global Public Health","volume":"20 1","pages":"2515481"},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2025-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12434383/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144247531","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Bystanders who observe racism can intervene to support the targets of racism, but they often fail to do so due to several context-specific barriers. There is currently little research on bystander behaviour in racism outside of English-speaking countries. We used mixed methods to explore bystander responses to everyday racism in Colombia. In an online survey, participants (N = 1,157) were presented with a scenario where they observed racist behaviour as a bystander. Subsequently, they were asked to respond to a series of open and closed questions. Quantitative findings suggested that knowledge on how to act was predicted by confidence and responsibility; responsibility was predicted by ethnicity (being non-mestizo), confidence, noticing the event, and feeling more uncomfortable; and confidence was predicted by noticing the event, feeling less uncomfortable and more responsible. In the analysis of the qualitative data, we identified six themes. These were (i) Bystander characteristics and circumstances; (ii) Bystander morality and attitudes towards racism; (iii) Clarity of the situation; (iv) Perceived need and deservedness; (v) Presence of authorities and other people, and (vi) Consequences of action: Safety to the bystander. We discuss these findings in relation to racism in the Colombian context.","PeriodicalId":12735,"journal":{"name":"Global Public Health","volume":"20 1","pages":"2453879"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2025-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143046393","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In Western Australia, where this study is situated, this industry is a significant employer, predominantly male-dominated, and the prevalent use of fly-in-fly-out schedules can blur work and social life. Consequently, efforts to prevent and manage workplace sexual violence have become a priority, leading to the development and implementation of various strategies and resources. Qualitative interviews were conducted with 34 participants, including sexual violence prevention professionals (n = 16) and mining industry workers (n = 18). Reflexive thematic analysis identified systemic and behavioural considerations that may be transferrable to other male-dominated workplaces. Participants emphasised the importance of primary prevention training programmes that included engaging activities, realistic scenarios, careful use of language, humour and inspirational facilitators. Genuine consultation with workers is critical to ensure key messages are appropriately received. Prevention interventions also need to be supported by appropriate reporting mechanisms and support processes for victim/survivors. This research aims to provide an understanding of current sexual violence prevention initiatives within the Australian mining sector, offering recommendations for future approaches tailored to industries and contexts with similar dynamics.","PeriodicalId":12735,"journal":{"name":"Global Public Health","volume":"20 1","pages":"2446720"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2025-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143729717","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Youth-friendly service delivery models may prove an alternative to increase SRH service uptake. This analysis utilises evidence from the Girl Power-Malawi study, a study designed to compare the impact of different models of service delivery on SRH service uptake for AGYW. Three intervention clinics trained providers in youth-friendly health services (YFHS), engaged young peer educators in patient outreach, expanded hours and integrated various services into youth-dedicated spaces. A standard of care (SOC) clinic was included as a comparator. This paper draws on qualitative data from in-depth interviews with 60 participants (15 per clinic) and 8 focus group discussions (2 per clinic). Thematic analysis identified three key themes regarding SRH service acceptability: having peer educators made AGYW feel more comfortable seeking services; AGYW perceived services at intervention clinics to be more private; and clinic modifications such as free services, longer operating hours and integration of different SRH services made services easier to access. Adolescents expressed that these factors contributed to higher service uptake in intervention clinics. Youth-friendly service provisions are needed to ensure AGYW find care-seeking acceptable.","PeriodicalId":12735,"journal":{"name":"Global Public Health","volume":"20 1","pages":"2481466"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2025-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12050357/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143729727","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Drawing on observations as invited stakeholders, relevant literature, official documents, and reports from other stakeholders, we identify key patterns, themes, and challenges, particularly the competing priorities of countries and difficulties in reaching consensus. Barriers that slowed progress include uneven political commitment, lack of transparency, and exclusion of key stakeholders, which hindered agreements and limited the treaty's potential to address global health threats.

However, the impacts of digital practices extend to a broader population and are embedded in significant power asymmetries within and across nations. Further, inequities in digital societies impact everyone, not just those directly involved. Addressing these challenges requires an approach which moves beyond individual data control and is grounded in the values of equity and a just contribution of benefits and risks from data use. Solidarity-based data governance (in short: data solidarity), suggests prioritising data uses over data type and proposes that data uses that generate public value should be actively facilitated, those that generate significant risks and harms should be prohibited or strictly regulated, and those that generate private benefits with little or no public value should be 'taxed' so that profits generated by corporate data users are reinvested in the public domain. In the context of global health data governance, the public value generated by data use is crucial. This contribution clarifies the meaning, importance, and potential of public value within data solidarity and outlines methods for its operationalisation through the PLUTO tool, specifically designed to assess the public value of data uses.","PeriodicalId":12735,"journal":{"name":"Global Public Health","volume":"20 1","pages":"2450403"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2025-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142947641","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
