    Three Contexts As The Post-Migration Ecology For Refugees: School Principals' Challenges And Strategies In Turkey, Lebanon, And Germany
    (2021) Orucu, Deniz; Arar, Khalid; Mahfouz, Julia; 0000-0002-5605-9453
    This article seeks to compare and analyze school-level challenges for school leaders and their responses to Syrian refugee education in Turkey, Lebanon, and Germany, drawing on the post-migration ecology framework developed and sensemaking processes in leadership. We utilized a comparative qualitative design within the realm of qualitative research. Findings revealed that the challenges are similar across the three contexts and are categorized into three domains: structural, psychological, and socio-pedagogical. School leaders' strategies in addressing these challenges fell into three different groups as ethics of care, principal agency, and sense making. In their strategies, all school principals are driven by ethics of care and act from a humanitarian stance, and they try to provide a better future for the Syrian students as well as the host country's students. However, the German education system provides greater autonomy to the school leaders in their implementations. In the Turkish and Lebanese cases, school leaders rely more on their discretion and personal values in their attempts, yet their authority is legally limited in taking further action. Further conclusions and implications are discussed.

    The Fix-it face-to-face intervention increases multihazard household preparedness crossculturally
    (2019) Joffe, Helene; Potts, Henry W.W.; Rosetto, Tiziana; Dogulu, Canay; Gul, Evrim; Perez-Fuentes, Gabriela; 0000-0002-5906-3706; 30936428; AAH-4518-2019
    Vulnerability to natural disasters is increasing globally(1-3). In parallel, the responsibility for natural hazard preparedness has shifted to communities and individuals(4). It is therefore crucial that households increase their preparedness, yet adoption of household preparedness measures continues to be low, even in high-risk regions(5-8). In addition, few hazard-preparedness interventions have been evaluated longitudinally using observational measures. Therefore, we conducted a controlled intervention with a 12-month follow-up on adults in communities in the United States and Turkey that focused on improving household earthquake and fire preparedness. We show that this Fix-it intervention, involving evidence-based, face-to-face workshops, increased multihazard preparedness in both cultures longitudinally. Compared to baseline, the primary outcome-overall preparedness-increased significantly in the intervention groups, with more improvement in earthquake preparedness in the Turkish participants and more improvements in fire preparedness in the US participants. High baseline outcome expectancy and home ownership predicted overall preparedness change in both intervention groups longitudinally, implying that a sense of agency influences preparedness. An unintended consequence of observation is that it may increase preparedness, as even the control groups changed their behaviour. Therefore, observation of home preparatory behaviours by an external source may be a way to extend multihazard preparedness across a population.
