This study explores how literacies are intertwined with social practices and shaped by ethnolinguistic and cultural histories, based on research with Indigenous language learners and facilitators in Mexico.
Proper regulation is essential to ensure that such a system benefited those in need, and that those who provided organs are properly compensated. Without significant policy changes, however, far too many patients will continue to languish on waiting lists until they run out of time. The goal of SDG3 is that everyone should have a good health and well-being.
This Series paper supports SDGs 3 and 10 by describing health-care coverage and quality across the four countries, quantifying inequalities in these outcomes by socioeconomic status within country, and assessing the contribution of government, social security, and private health sectors to observed inequality.

In this chapter, we discuss various methods for synthesizing nanomaterials and their properties for application in energy generation. We also explore the practical applications of different nanomaterial-based energy-generating devices and their performance, positioning them as alternative technologies to traditional power sources. The chapter highlights the overall performance—thermal, electrical, and mechanical—of nanomaterial-based energy generators and examines the role of various nanomaterials in energy-harvesting devices. Finally, we address the current challenges in applying nanomaterials in energy generation.
Human health, in the coming decades (and already in some “front-running” regions), is in peril. Although some authorities warn that over-stating such risks can induce paralysis and despair, under-stating them will not generate the intense action that is required. The impact of climate change on the Earth system is now so significant that the next ice age will likely be delayed by at least 50,000 years [201]. If humans do not rapidly change their collective behavior, then this may be their most enduring legacy. It is hoped that this chapter makes a small contribution to SDG3.
The persistent challenge of aligning mental health services and practices with the principles of the National Mental Health Law remains a central objective.
This paper supports SDG 3 and 10 by documenting the high suicide rates among Indigenous people, and younger individuals in particular (aged between 10 and 24) in Brazil, reinforcing the need for specific prevention strategies for these populations.
This paper discusses the burden of the high suicide rates in Guiana - the highest in the world; discussing the complexities of the context and the importance of adopting a biopsychosocial perspective to suicide prevention.
With a pressing climate emergency and increasing interconnectedness, the need for action on health at a global level is greater than ever. Achieving Universal Health Coverage with a strong base in primary healthcare is essential. This must be accompanied by policies to address the socioeconomic and environmental determinants of ill health, supporting SDG3.
