Outline of Final Research Achievements

Health challenges among people placed in socially vulnerable conditions have been examined from the perspective of human security across countries and regions. Negative factors that surround women such as violence and exploitation is becoming more commonplace, making the situation difficult to be visualized. In vulnerable conditions, it was found that the existence of the mother as the primary caregiver was an essential requirement to ensure a child’s healthy life. Reconstructions of the family and community in order to live conscientiously have been shown to be a requirement to guarantee healthy lives of vulnerable people, especially vulnerable women and children prone to the abovementioned negative factors.
