Rabies vaccinations at the rural–urban divide: successes and barriers to dog rabies vaccination programs from a rural and urban campaign in Zambia by Ricky Chazya, Chilufya Aneta Susan Mulenga, Andrew D. Gibson, Frederic Lohr, Cassandra Boutelle, Sarah Bonaparte, Oline Sinywibulula, Gareth Thomas, Patricia Bwalya, George Dautu, Linous Munsimbwe, Geoffrey Muuka, Luke Gamble, Ryan M. Wallace, Michelle A. Waltenburg

“…Traditional vaccination approaches in Zambia rarely collect operational data to assess coverage and inform subsequent campaigns.MethodsFollowing mass vaccination campaigns in rural (Itezhi tezhi) and urban (Lusaka) communities, we evaluated vaccination coverage achieved during the campaigns and characterized and estimated the dog population in these communities.ResultsHerd immunity (i.e., 70% vaccination coverage) was not achieved in the Lusaka campaign, likely due to challenges in pre-campaign community sensitization and distance to vaccination sites in the central point campaign approach. …”

Las nuevas formas de ciudadanía en las sociedades latinoamericanas contemporáneas by Paola García

“…But in the context of globalization, which involves the process of pluralization of societies, the social actors are wondering about the new functions of the State and its citizens. Three social groups, among others, challenge the traditional concept of citizenship: ethnic groups traditionally marginalized and excluded from the political and economic spaces, groups of migrants whose existence takes place in territorialities which are differentiated (country of origin/country of reception) and evangelical groups which claim a citizenship of this world and another in heaven. …”
