Item type:Publication, Application of occupational therapy in children with disabilities(Akademija za humani razvoj, Beograd, Republika Srbija, 2024-11-28)Occupational therapy is a specific discipline within the broader spectrum of special education and rehabilitation services. Although there may be some overlap in populations served and therapeutic approaches, each, occupational therapy and special education and rehabilitation, play a crucial role in supporting individuals with disabilities to lead more fulfilling lives. Occupational therapy for children with disabilities is based on an understanding of the interaction between children, their activities and the environment, and therefore, when assessing abilities, the starting point is to see whether limitations are the result of external barriers and limitations or are primarily related to developmental ability and functional status. The growth of a child into an adult person involves continuous adaptation to the demands set by the environment and assimilation of opportunities, and this dynamic interaction is even more complex in children born with a risk factor or a certain type of disability. So occupational therapy can be a huge benefit for children with disabilities, as an effective way to help these kids perform meaningful activities and enrich their lives. This study employs a systematic literature review methodology to explore the application of occupational therapy (OT) in children with special needs. A systematic approach ensures a comprehensive and unbiased synthesis of existing literature to identify key themes, interventions, and effectiveness in pediatric occupational therapy. Occupational therapy (OT) plays a crucial role in improving the quality of life for children with special needs by enhancing their independence, functional abilities, and overall well-being. Through individualized interventions, OT helps children develop essential motor, cognitive, sensory and social skills, enabling them to participate in daily activities at home, school and in the community. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings

Item type:Publication, Exploring the Intersection of Violence, Disability, and Religion: a Quantitative Study on Children With Disabilities in Multicultural North Macedonia”(Akademija za humani razvoj/College of Human Development Fakultet za diplomatiju i bezbednost/ Faculty of Diplomacy and Security Beograd, Srbija, 2024); ; This study delves into the intersection of violence, disability, and religion within the diverse and multicultural landscape of North Macedonia, focusing on the experiences of children with disabilities who are particularly vulnerable to various forms of violence. The research aims to shed light on how cultural and religious factors influence the prevalence and impact of both primary and secondary traumatization and victimization among these children. Utilizing a sample of 152 children with disabilities from various educational and social institutions across North Macedonia, the study employs rigorous quantitative methods, including t-tests and correlation analyses, to explore the relationships between these children’s experiences of violence and their religious and cultural backgrounds. The findings reveal a statistically significant correlation (r = 0.47, p < 0.01) between the degree of religious conservatism in communities and the incidence of violence against children with disabilities, indicating that cultural and religious norms play a critical role in their vulnerability. Moreover, the research identifies a significant difference (t = 2.86, p < 0.05) in the level of secondary traumatization between children who receive support from their religious communities and those who do not. This highlights the potential protective effect of community support in mitigating the harmful impacts of violence. The study underscores the importance of considering the complex interplay of disability, religion, and cultural context when developing interventions aimed at safeguarding vulnerable children from violence and its enduring consequences. These insights are crucial for informing policy and practice in social work, particularly in multicultural settings like North Macedonia. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings

Item type:Publication, On some (dis)similarities between Near Eastern scribal education, παιδεία, nam.lú.ùlu and humanitas(Faculty of Philosophy in Skopje, 2025)A comparative examination of the traditions of παιδεία and humanitas alongside the scribal tradition of the Ancient Near East reveals not only some expected dissimilarities, but also intriguing parallels in pedagogical methods, educational objectives, and societal roles of the educated elite. It is undeniable that the scribal education which was going on in the bit tuppi was a kind of παιδεία that corresponds to the Greek one, at least in a technical, if not in a social context. Although the specific methods, content, and cultural contexts of the Near Eastern, Greek and Roman educational systems varied, they all shared the common goal of making the elite members of society effective administrators, scribes, and leaders. Moreover, a comparison between the Sumerian concept of nam.lú.ùlu and the Roman concept of humanitas reveals two distinct, but overlapping understandings of what it meant to be human and urban in the context of their respective cultures. While both nam.lú.ùlu and humanitas offer frameworks for understanding humanity, they reflect the different values and priorities of their respective cultures: the former was rooted in a communal, religious view of humanity that focuses on collective responsibility and divine order, while the latter emphasized individual moral development, cultural refinement, and civic responsibility within a more secular framework. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, National Situation Analysis on Early Childhood Intervention in N. Macedonia: Perspectives of parents and caregivers(Faculty of Philosophy, Skopje, Republic of N. Macedonia, 2025-05-26); ; ; ; Filipovska, MajaThis paper explores the findings of the National Situation Analysis on Early Childhood Intervention (ECI) in North Macedonia, focusing on the experiences and perspectives of parents and caregivers of children with developmental delays and disabilities. The study aimed to assess the current state of ECI services, examine the needs of children and families, and identify service provision gaps, particularly among marginalized groups such as the Roma community. Using a mixed-methods approach, surveys and focus groups were conducted to gather both quantitative and qualitative data from parents, caregivers, and ECI professionals. The analysis revealed that only 58% of eligible children receive ECI services, with geographical coverage being a significant challenge, especially in rural and underserved areas. 81% of parents reported no waiting lists, while 19% experienced waiting times, with 68% waiting less than three months. Barriers such as long waiting periods, financial constraints, and transportation issues were more pronounced among low-income and minority families. Additionally, 23% of parents indicated that they did not face any barriers, but 12% lacked information on ECI services. Family participation in ECI services varied, with 24% of parents involved in comprehensive developmental assessments and 22% participating in parent-child interaction assessments. Lower engagement was noted in transition plans (9%) and home safety assessments (4%), suggesting opportunities to improve family involvement in long-term planning and safety evaluations. The study highlights the urgent need to expand ECI services, especially in rural areas, and recommends developing a comprehensive national ECI strategy. This strategy should prioritize equitable access, improve service delivery, and enhance ECI personnel's capacity through specialized training, ultimately fostering more inclusive and effective services for children and their families. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
