CALL FOR PAPER @ MGLI
Mahatma Gandhi Labour Institute is an autonomous institute of the Government of Gujarat established in 1979,under the Societies Registration Act, 1860 to provide education, training, study and research in labour and related subjects .
Children are vital to the nation's present and its future. Children's development is very important for the overall development of society. The best way to develop National human resources is to take care of children. India has the largest child population in the world. All out efforts are being made by the Government for the development and welfare of children. Children's health needs are also significantly different from those of adults. By nature, children grow and develop at rapid rates, placing them at special risk of being affected by illness and injury. If health problems are not identified and treated, they can affect a child's cognitive, physical, behavioral, and emotional development. It is therefore essential to identify and treat health conditions early to prevent or minimize the impact on overall growth and development.
In this context,the Mahatma Gandhi Labour Institute is planning to publish a volume on child Health and Nutrition. Volume will provide the conceptual scenario, prevalence and challenges of said themes at different perspective. Volumes are also focusing on the preventive and rehabilitative aspects of the current issues with its administrative and legal community based mechanism.This volume is sponsoring by UNICEF.The audience of this volume is parents, academia, policy makers and practitioners. Moreover, this volume is child specific and having the word limit of 5000 to 7000 in the reference of APA style.
Child Health and Nutrition
1. Concept and dimensions of child health & Nutrition
2. Challenges of sustaining child health & Nutrition
3. Legal aspects of child health care
4. Interventions for improving child health and maternal health
In case of any inquiry kindly revert back.

LiHE 2017 GREECE - 18th International Symposium on Learning Centred Curriculum Design in Higher Education
LiHE 2017 GREECE 18th international symposium on Learning Centred Curriculum Design in Higher Education 28th May to 1st June 2017 Aegina Island, Greece Join us for a unique collaborative symposium on the beautiful AEGINA island in the Greek Saronic Gulf, where authors work to finalise the manuscript for publication. All accepted authors will have their work published worldwide by Libri Publishing Ltd., Oxfordshire UK. Submit your chapter proposal (2,000 words) for double-blind review no later than February 27, 2017. Online submission server: https://cmt3.research. Inquiries: info@lihe.info Web address: http://www.lihe.info/teaching- Sponsored by: Institute for Learning in Higher Education LEARNING CENTRED CURRICULUM DESIGN IN HIGHER EDUCATION For this international book-writing symposium, we call upon scholars and practitioners of curriculum design to submit chapters for the book LEARNING CENTRED CURRICULUM DESIGN IN HIGHER EDUCATION (Libri Publishing Ltd., Oxfordshire, UK). The book will be published worldwide in line with previous books of the Learning in Higher Education series: https://www.amazon.com/s/ref= The book is multidisciplinary. We invite contributions from all academic disciplines. We are particularly interested in authors writing chapters that show explicitly the link between curriculum design and student learning. We call for this because we believe that students will benefit from educations with an explicit view on how students learn through their activities of study. Different views on curriculum exist. Lattice & Stark (2009) for example see curriculum as an academic plan including: * goals for student learning, * content, * sequence, * instructional resources, and * assessment method. Here the focus is on curriculum design, syllabus planning, teaching, exams, and evaluation. Nygaard & Bramming (2008) see curriculum as a learning-centred action plan, drawing attention to: * student goal-setting through visible learning * student driven activities, * student self-leadership, * student self-evaluation. Here the focus is on learning design, process facilitation, supervision, self-assessment, peer-assessment. The book is open for any view on curriculum design as long as it is informed in theory and reflected in practice. Clearly, curriculum design has an enormous impact on learning. Indeed, at the most basic level, curriculum design defines for the student that which is being learned, raising philosophical questions such as "Who ought to be in control of content?" or "is some knowledge more valuable than other knowledge?". Through the choice of sequence, it affects the narrative, the logical rationale, and the cognitive links which the student might develop. And of course, it has broader implications for a student's professionalism, job preparedness, and interest in life-long learning. Submit your chapter which documents curriculum design in higher education centering student learning. The aspiration is to publish an anthology which is diverse in nature and which showcases concrete examples of curriculum design and learning in higher education from around the world. Reviewers will refer to the following questions when reviewing chapter proposals: Does the chapter show a clear example of curriculum design in higher education? It is required that a chapter not only describes the curriculum but also documents the design principles and its application to learning in higher education. Is the chapter grounded in the contemporary theory of curriculum design as it relates to learning? It is important that a chapter not only describes the curriculum design but also situates it theoretically and reflects on theories of learning. Does the chapter demonstrate how curriculum design enhances student learning? It is expected that a chapter moves beyond speculation and provides evidence of the enhanced student learning which is results from the curriculum design. Is the submission clear, compelling and concise? It is a must that the chapter is written with readers in mind, using a fresh and modern style, which appeals to a broad audience. We look forward to receiving your chapter proposal & hopefully work with you on the beautiful GREEK island of AEGINA to finalise the manuscript for publication. Submit your chapter proposal (2,000 words) for double-blind review no later than February 27, 2017. Online submission server: https://cmt3.research.

Submit your abstract now to participate in this international, interdisciplinary and intercultural event. **Location: Art Center Kobe, Kobe, Japan **Dates: Thursday, June 8 to Sunday, June 11, 2017 **Initial Abstract Submission Deadline: January 19, 2017 **Early Bird Registration Deadline: February 20, 2017 **Enquiries: agen@iafor.org SUBMIT AN ABSTRACT: iafor.org/agen2017-call-for- Already had your abstract accepted? Register now: iafor.org/agen2017- To find out more about registration packages, presentation options, conference events and more, please visit the conference website: agen.iafor.org ------------- ***AGEN2017 Conference Theme: "East Meets West: Innovation and Discovery" The Asian Conference on Aging & Gerontology 2017 (AGen2017) invites papers on all aspects of aging. Our theme explores the tensions that have emerged due to globalisation and the growing influence of Western cultural values on Eastern traditions such as intergeneration coresidence, filial piety and the family-based support networks that provide for the care of the elderly in later life. Jolly and Macintyre's depiction of the persistent belief in an "unchanging cultural core" of bedrock values such as family support for the elderly has resulted in the resistance of many governments in Asia and the Pacific Rim to plan effectively for the care and needs of a growing aging population. By treating culture as a dynamic process that adapts to new ideas, opportunities and economic realities we can anticipate change and implement proactive policies that support the elderly, their families and the societies that are ultimately responsible for the quality of life among their populations. This conference serves as an opportunity to present new research on the changing face of aging in the Asia-Pacific Region, to network with fellow professionals and to develop policy interventions that improve the lives of our elders. The growing disconnect in Asia from traditional forms of family support is seen in the increased shift towards more Western models of independence for elders, decreased levels of coresidence and extended family living, and the weakening of family support networks. In particular, AGen2017 seeks presentations on intergeneration support, the economics of retirement, the changing health patterns of the elderly, independent living, the residential patterns of the elderly, or assistive technologies. The Asian Conference on Aging & Gerontology is the only international conference on aging held annually in Japan and we welcome your participation and research. In conjunction with our global partners, we look forward to extending you a warm welcome in 2017. – The AGen2017 Organising Committee (iafor.org/agen2017-committee) ------------- ***Programme **Plenary Panel: Easts Meets West – Healthy, Active and Beautiful Aging in Asia Featured Panel Chairs: Professor James McNally & Professor Hiroshi Ishida How any society deals with aging can be a contentious issue, one on which questions of culture, convenience and even expedience are brought to bear. Economic prosperity and peace in developed countries has lead to unprecedented levels of healthcare provision for a population that, as a result, is living far longer. Coupled with falling birthrates, Western Europe and Japan are witnessing demographic changes that bring unparalleled challenges but also unexpected opportunities for aging populations, as innovations and discoveries help people lead active and healthy lives. This panel will provide an overview of the demographic situation in different countries and cultures in Asia and beyond to compare and contrast outlooks for the aged. It will also examine the concepts of healthy, active and beautiful aging. *A complementary panel will be held on the same theme at the European Conference Series 2017 in Brighton, UK. **Featured Presentation: Methodologies for the Collection of Comparative Community Level Public Health Data: Obtaining Powerful and Statistically Meaningful Findings for Small Populations Professor James W. McNally Recent health emergencies such as the ebola outbreak in 2015 and the current zika virus reflects the pressing need for the rapid and statistically meaningful collection of data, often within small geographic areas. The collection of public health data at the community level is challenging for a number of reasons. Building respondent trust and gaining local support are key, but even when these barriers are overcome the choice of questions and how they are asked is central to the success of a study and to its impact on health improvements and policy change. One of the common problems found in many community level studies is the lack of comparability and the inability to generalize findings beyond the study area. While interesting and useful information is often obtained, translating this information into a framework that facilitates policy impact often proves difficult due to a lack of comparability. The NACDA Program on Aging has been promoting a methodology for overcoming the challenges of generalizability and comparability that has been successfully employed in several small area studies of public health and healthcare unitization. The presentation will describe this methodology and provide examples of its efficacy in real-world research situations. The presentation will provide supporting materials to guide interested users in applying this approach for their own research specializations. This approach is flexible and works across languages and research disciplines so it can be applied in a variety of public health studies, including RAPID AREA ANALYSIS (RAP) situations. *A complementary presentation will be held on the same theme at the Hawaii Conference Series 2017 in Honolulu, USA. **Further programming for The Asian Conference on Aging & Gerontology 2017 will be announced in the coming months. ------------- ***IAFOR Publishing Opportunities **Peer-reviewed journal: IAFOR Journal of the Social Sciences The IAFOR Journal of the Social Sciences (joss.iafor.org) is an editorially independent journal associated with AGen.
