International health literacy experts provide a collection of important insights and recommendations that are urgently required to inform practice and policy. The impetus for this book is a growing recognition that a siloed approach to supporting health and health literacy exists in many countries. This book addresses a gap in the international literature by presenting solutions that promote ongoing collaboration across settings to redress inequity and optimize global health. Identifying intersections between the settings is critically important to supporting these collaborations. Health literacy is the ability to find, use, evaluate and apply information to look after our health. Developing the personal asset of health literacy earlier in life influences adult health behaviours. A Health in All Policies approach has been globally endorsed; however, a health literacy in all settings approach is yet to be realised. As a social determinant of health, health literacy can determine health outcomes, educational attainment, social equity, and productivity. The authors investigate the health literacy development of children and their communities within particular regions, exploring whether health literacy is addressed as a health, education or community issue. They describe where silos exist between and within settings, aiming to highlight areas where health literacy is present. This helps identify challenges and opportunities for optimizing health literacy development. Global Perspectives on Children's Health Literacy is essential reading for public health and health promotion researchers and practitioners, primordial prevention researchers, policy makers, health and education ministers, community service ministers, youth organisations, librarians, school teachers, health and physical education teachers, school nurses, child and parenting services nurses, paediatricians, and allied health professionals who work with children and families (e.g., social workers, speech pathologists, dietitians). 606 $aPublic health 606 $aLiteracy 606 $aSocial structure 606 $aEquality 606 $aMedicine, Preventive 606 $aHealth promotion 606 $aLife cycle, Human 606 $aEducation 606 $aChildren 606 $aPublic Health 606 $aLiteracy 606 $aSocial Structure 606 $aHealth Promotion and Disease Prevention 606 $aLife Course 606 $aChildhood Education 615 0$aPublic health. 615 0$aLiteracy. 615 0$aSocial structure. 615 0$aEquality. 615 0$aMedicine, Preventive. 615 0$aHealth promotion. 615 0$aLife cycle, Human. 615 0$aEducation. 615 0$aChildren. 615 14$aPublic Health. 615 24$aLiteracy. 615 24$aSocial Structure. 615 24$aHealth Promotion and Disease Prevention. 615 24$aLife Course. 615 24$aChildhood Education. 676 $a613 676 $a614 700 $aNash$b Rosie$01770635 701 $aCruickshank$b Vaughan$01770636 701 $aElmer$b Shandell$01770637 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910886089203321 996 $aGlobal Perspectives on Children's Health Literacy$94252835 997 $aUNINA LEADER 04802nam 2200685Ia 450 001 9910583021403321 005 20200520144314.0 010 $a9786611189341 010 $a9781281189349 010 $a1281189340 010 $a9780080560847 010 $a0080560849 035 $a(CKB)1000000000410763 035 $a(EBL)331974 035 $a(OCoLC)469643921 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000127423 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11999968 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000127423 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10051297 035 $a(PQKB)11513345 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC331974 035 $a(PPN)170600947 035 $a(FR-PaCSA)88811937 035 $a(FRCYB88811937)88811937 035 $a(EXLCZ)991000000000410763 100 $a20070904d2008 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aCompostable polymer materials /$fEwa Rudnik 205 $a1st ed. 210 $aBoston ;$aAmsterdam ;$aLondon $cElsevier Science$d2008 215 $a1 online resource (225 p.) 300 $aDescription based upon print version of record. 311 08$a9780080994420 311 08$a0080994423 311 08$a9780080453712 311 08$a0080453716 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references and index. 327 $aFront Cover; Compostable Polymer Materials; Copyright Page; Contents; Preface; Symbols and abbreviations; Chapter 1.

These compostable plastics undergo degradation and leave no visible, distinguishable or toxic residue. Environmental concerns and legislative measures taken in different regions of the world make composting an increasingly attractive route for the disposal of redundant polymers.This book provides up-to-date results and information about compostable polymer materials in a coherent and comprehensive manner.
