Misschien heb je het zelf van dichtbij meegemaakt of heb je er via via wel eens van gehoord. Anonieme Instagram-accounts waarop pikante foto’s of video’s van vrouwen worden gedeeld, zonder dat zij daar toestemming voor hebben gegeven. Of privé-foto’s die rondgaan in whatsapp-groepen met de boodschap dat de dame in kwestie een ‘hoer’ of ‘slet’ is. Slutshaming en exposing kan grote invloed hebben op de levens van de slachtoffers.

Global climate change (CC) affects marine mammals, such as cetaceans, by exposing them to an altered marine environment. Cetaceans are indirectly influenced by CC (e.g. through their prey, warmer environment). They are indicator species, significant to marine ecosystems and one of the most endangered vertebrate groups on this planet. Since oceanic water temperatures have increased, a noticeable shift in diversity of cetaceans present in marine hotspots is expected. In this paper, the community structure (occurrence) of cetacean species present around São Miguel Island, Portugal were investigated to contribute to the current understanding of the effects of CC on cetaceans.

Wijkagenten en jongerenwerkers in de Rotterdamse wijk Delfshaven krijgen in toenemende mate te maken met meiden die slachtoffer (dreigen te) worden van ‘exposen’: het online verspreiden van seksueel getint (beeld)materiaal met het doel iemand reputatieschade toe te brengen. Om meer zicht te krijgen op deze ontwikkeling heeft de gemeente Rotterdam het lectoraat Publiek Vertrouwen in Veiligheid gevraagd onderzoek te doen naar de rollen die meiden tussen de 10-23 jaar spelen binnen het fenomeen exposen in Delfshaven. Uit het onderzoek blijkt dat meiden naast slachtoffer, ook omstander en dader zijn. Meiden exposen zelf, om zo andere meiden naar beneden te halen en in een positief daglicht (bij jongens) te komen. Verder valt op dat áls meiden reageren op exposen, zij dat alleen doen richting het slachtoffer, en niet richting de dader. De schuld van het exposen wordt veelal bij het slachtoffer neergelegd. Exposen heeft verregaande consequenties voor slachtoffers. Ze krijgen te maken met seksuele intimidatie, geweld door familieleden, trekken zich terug uit het sociale verkeer uit schaamte en kunnen een negatief zelfbeeld ontwikkelen. Geconcludeerd wordt dat exposen in Delfshaven plaatsvindt binnen een complex systeem van elkaar versterkende en deels overlappende contexten; straat-, wijk- en schaamtecultuur. Daar waar sprake is van een overlap is de kans op verregaande vormen van exposen met verregaande consequenties (en dus verstrekkende schade voor meiden en hun familie) het grootst. Geadviseerd wordt een aanpak in de eerste plaats te richten op meiden die zich in deze overlap bevinden, waarbij aandacht wordt besteed aan het objectieve én het subjectieve veiligheidsprobleem dat rond exposen in Delfshaven is ontstaan.

There is emerging evidence that the performance of risk assessment instruments is weaker when used for clinical decision‐making than for research purposes. For instance, research has found lower agreement between evaluators when the risk assessments are conducted during routine practice. We examined the field interrater reliability of the Short‐Term Assessment of Risk and Treatability: Adolescent Version (START:AV). Clinicians in a Dutch secure youth care facility completed START:AV assessments as part of the treatment routine. Consistent with previous literature, interrater reliability of the items and total scores was lower than previously reported in non‐field studies. Nevertheless, moderate to good interrater reliability was found for final risk judgments on most adverse outcomes. Field studies provide insights into the actual performance of structured risk assessment in real‐world settings, exposing factors that affect reliability. This information is relevant for those who wish to implement structured risk assessment with a level of reliability that is defensible considering the high stakes.

This booklet Critical issues in sustainability Part II represents a continuation of the work we have embarked on some years ago. It contains a selection of opinion pieces that we have written over the past year and which were published in national and regional newspapers. These opinion pieces allow us to share our thinking and ideas with the broader public and support the exchange of them through discussion and debate, while they support debates through media that we think are critical to realizing the goals of exposing, debunking, and eliciting

We developed and piloted a course, called Changemakers, that supported interdisciplinary student-led action groups to identify social and environmental sustainability challenges and influence systemic change. By exposing students to dynamic and complex issues from multiple stakeholder perspectives, Changemakers aimed to empower students to find and use their voice and agency to make a difference in society. Students need knowledge and skills to navigate societal challenges, address SDGs and build confidence and creativity to change the status quo (Lozano, 2017; Raelin, 2009). Changemakers provided a playful and safe learning environment to explore societal challenges, form inclusive and sensitive judgments, and enact interventions for change. Students developed self-efficacy (Bandura, 2001) that were encouraged to be autonomous and self-directed in their learning (Morris, 2019). Through learning-by-doing, students gained a set of leadership and change management skills that can be applied to a variety of professional settings in local and global contexts.
