Obširna muzikološka obdelava glasbenega življenja dunajskih Slovanov je stari dolg avstrijske muzikologije in hkrati »okostnjak v omari« muzikologiji posameznih slovanskih dežel. Članek preučuje ...sledi, ki so jih pustili Slovenci na Dunaju. Članek se pretežno opira na podatke iz češkega (dunajsko-češkega) tiska, ki zagotovo ni primarni vir za raziskovanje slovenske muzikologije, vendar zelo pomemben za primerjavo virov in informacij. Časovni obseg sega od prvih omemb o vzajemnih stikih dunajskih Slovencev z drugimi dunajskimi Slovani in se konča okoli leta 1870 z ustanovitvijo društva SLOVENIJA NA DUNAJI.
Spomenik neznanca levo je brez sledi napisa in izdelan iz črnega lesnobrdskega apnenca kot stela z vrhom v obliki križa. Po ocenah strokovnjakov so ga postavili v šestdesetih letih 19. stoletja. ...Nagrobnik so na Navju ohranili zaradi lepe oblike, saj posnema srednjeveške arhitekturne vzore. Na sredini se postavlja nagrobnik treh glasbenikov: Čeha Gašperja Maška (1794 – 1873), Čeha Antona Nedveda (1829 – 1896) in Jurija Flajšmana (1818 – 1874) iz Beričevega pri Ljubljani. Posamezni nagrobniki teh treh osebnosti se niso ohranili. Zanje so leta 1937 v povečani cerkvi Sv. Krištofa napravili ploščo z imeni, morda so tja prenesli tudi njihove posmrtne ostanke. Ob ureditvi Navja so v zapuščen apnenčasti nagrobnik vstavili tri plošče iz kararskega marmorja z njihovimi imeni. Poleg nagrobnika glasbenikov stoji neoromanska stela iz lesnobrdskega apnenca, narejena za rodbino Langus. Nagrobnik stoji na grobu slikarja Matevža Langusa (1792 – 1855) iz Kamne Gorice, tu pa verjetno ležijo tudi njegova žena Ana (Wiedenhofer, u. 1887) in hči Marija. Matej Langus je bil znan kot portretist ljubljanskega meščanstva, slikal je tudi freske in oltarne podobe. (Povzeto po: M. Piškur, S. Žitko: Ljubljansko Navje. Ljubljana, 1997.)
Obrađuje se nadgrobna stela obitelji Valenta, roba Cezernija Avita, nađena slučajno 1989. u selu Donjim Čehima u južnom predgrađu Zagreba, na području rimske Andautonije u krajnjem jugozapadnom ...dijelu provincije Gornje Panonije. Stajala je nad (nepoznatim) grobom u okviru groblja pod tumulima, koje je najvjerojatnije pripadalo selu (vicus) na širem prostoru sjeverno od ceste Emona – Siscia. O tome se spomeniku već pisalo, ali uvijek na razini osnovnih podataka. Stoga je on ostao nedovoljno iskorišten izvor za poznavanje ropstva kao društvene pojave i robovske privrede na području Norika i Panonije. Budući da robovski grobni spomenici, a osobito oni obiteljski, u zapadnim provincijama nisu česti, stela o kojoj se u ovome prilogu raspravlja važna je kao arheološki izvor višestrukih mogućnosti: natpisa, ikonografije i okvirnih podataka o kontekstu nalaza. S obzirom na to da je u prethodnim objavama spomenik opisan i datiran u sredinu 2. stoljeća, u ovome prilogu naglasak je stavljen na prozopografiju i društveni položaj njegovih vlasnika, koji se dadu iščitati iz odjeće i atributa prikazanih likova, te iz epitafa. Veoma je vjerojatno da je vlasnik obitelji roba Valensa bio onaj isti koji je posvetio natpis Marsu Latobiju (Mars Latobius) u St. Paulu u južnoj Austriji, na sjevernom području keltskog plemena Latobika (Latobici), čiji je matični prostor bio na krajnjem jugozapadnome dijelu Panonije, na granici s Norikom. Cezernije Avit, po svemu sudeći, bio je oslobođenik italsko-noričke obitelji Cezernija koja je svoje trgovačke ispostave imala u Akvileji i Emoni, odakle je rasprostrla mrežu trgovačkog poduzetništva širom Panonije. S obzirom na imovinske mogućnosti koje se mogu pretpostaviti na temelju kvalitetnog i razmjerno skupog grobnog spomenika, kao i na temelju biča u Valensovim rukama, vjerojatno je da je on za svog vlasnika obavljao trgovački posao povezan s putovanjima. Nema sumnje da mu je upravo takav posao priskrbio i imetak i obiteljsku i osobnu samosvijest što se odražava u epitafu i na prikazu obitelji. Valens je naime predočen u odjeći rimskog građanina, a ženski članovi njegove obitelji u domaćoj nošnji s pojedinostima koje naznačuju pripadnost rimskome društvu. Stela je načinjena od kamena iz okolice Zagreba, najvjerojatnije u klesarskoj radionici u Andautoniji.
Healthy environments support the wellbeing of children and the environment thus play a cardinal role in the future of Pacific Island Countries (PICs). Children are more vulnerable and at risk to ...environmental hazards than adults because they breathe, drink, and eat much more relative to body weight, resulting in greater exposures in the different environments in which children find themselves every day. We examine the role that children's environmental health indicators (CEHI) can play for PICs to highlight priorities and we prioritise actions to improve children's environmental health and thus achieve their 'Healthy Islands' vision. We conducted a systematic search of relevant documented and publicly available Pacific Island Country information on children's environmental health indicators using the general Internet, as well as databases such as PubMed, Google Scholar, relevant UN agencies, as well as regional databases. Information on CEHI was available-mainly in grey literature-but not specifically aimed at PICs. Likewise, similar observations were made for peer-reviewed literature. From this review, we compiled summaries and a framework to propose the requirements as well as provide a foundation for the development of CEHI for PICs. CEHI development for PICs should ideally be a multi-sectoral endeavour within each PIC as well as for the region. This can be achieved through public, private, and academic sector initiatives to draw in all sectors of government as well as the relevant UN agencies and regional PIC-representative organisations.
The unique environmental vulnerability of small island developing states (SIDS) is likely to impact negatively on children's health. Children's environmental health indicators (CEHI) are standardized ...measures that can be used to assess the environmental exposures and their resulting health outcomes in children. This study sought to utilize the United Nations (UN) global Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), with their associated targets and indicators, as a framework for a CEHI proposal for SIDS. Exposure-side indicators were taken from key themes from the 2012 Rio+20 UN Conference on Sustainable Development, and health-side indicators were selected based on the most significant contributors to the burden of disease in children. The multiple-exposures⁻multiple-effect (MEME) framework was then used to show the relationships between environmental exposures and children's health outcomes. The framework was populated with available data from the World Bank's DataBank. Whilst there was some data available at a population level, major gaps in both exposure-side and health-side indicators were revealed. In order to progress children's environmental health in SIDS, a further piece of work is required to propose a fully prioritized set of exposure-side and health-side CEHIs; based on, but not exclusively linked to, the SDGs.
Community-university partnerships have been shown to produce significant value for both sets of partners, providing reciprocal learning opportunities, (re)building of bonds of trust, and creating ...unique venues to formulate and apply research that responds to community interests and informs collaborative solutions to community problems. For such partnerships to be mutually empowering, certain design characteristics are necessary, including respect for different modes and expressions of knowledge, capacity-building for all parties, and an environment that promotes honest and constructive dialogue about inevitable tensions associated with the interplay of knowledge and power. This article explores an innovative case of community-university partnerships through participatory action research involving a coalition of environmental justice and health advocates, the San Joaquin Valley Cumulative Health Impacts Project (SJV CHIP), and researchers affiliated with the University of California, Davis. The article seeks to answer three research questions: (1) How can a Public Participation Geographic Information System (PPGIS) process be employed to build effective and sustainable community-university partnerships? (2) Conversely, how does a PPGIS process depend on such partnerships? (3) Prompted by these questions, how does engagement in a PPGIS process transform not only the knowledge base but the ways of knowing of its partners? Author abstract, ed
