“…Governments and organizations need to invest to increase everyone's access to high-quality education to solve the more significant problem of educational inequality (Salinas, 2021). It is possible to end the cycle of illiteracy and enable people to fully engage in society, including the legal system, through promoting literacy and primary education (Silverman et al, 2015).…”

This ground-breaking study reveals the formidable challenges that illiterate women face in accessing justice in Bangladesh's southern char areas. This study identified vital impediments to justice access through focused discussions in Char Montaj, Char Biswas, and Char Kajal: illiteracy, legal ignorance, perplexing court procedures, economic hardships, communication issues, superstitions, religious influences, and unclear complaint processes. This research emphasizes the critical need for focused interventions, calling for customized legal literacy programs, streamlined court procedures, economic assistance, enhanced infrastructure, and community awareness campaigns. These findings point to equal justice for a disadvantaged community, which aligns with SDG 16.

“…Some of these papers included a clear methods section with descriptions of key informant interviews and progress reporting systems, and others did not. Some of these papers were very rich in detail, both with (e.g., Minkler et al., ) and without a traditional methods section (e.g., Silverman, Champney, Steber, & Zubritsky, ; Thomas, Sayers, Godon, & Reilly, ). As a whole, these papers documented community changes, including both PSE and new or strengthened programs, and community capacity outcomes such as strengthened partnerships, new skills, and leveraged resources.…”

Community coalitions are well established as an important strategy for addressing public health problems through the lens of health equity, social determinants of health, and/or a social ecologic perspective. After almost three decades of practice and research on community‐based collaborative approaches, a large number of evaluations have been conducted to examine the processes of coalition formation, approaches to creating community change, and whether intermediate and longer‐term outcomes have been achieved. This chapter reports the results of a scoping review of the methods commonly used to evaluate community coalitions. English‐language articles were identified through a search of keywords, including community coalitions and evaluation published in the PubMed database between 2000 and 2018. Only outcome evaluations were included for a total of fifty‐five eligible papers. Two coders abstracted the following domains: public health topic, number of coalitions, framework or theory, study design, data collection methods, temporality, and types of outcomes (i.e., behavioral or health, community change, community capacity). Strategies for attributing observed outcomes to coalitions also were assessed. Findings suggest that the same challenges which limited the field a decade ago remain. Community changes were documented most often, with no behavioral or health outcomes. Studies that evaluated behavioral or health outcomes most commonly evaluated a single program, with limited or no examination of how the coalition(s) influenced program effectiveness. Current methods are adequate for assessing community changes and community capacity outcomes and evaluating specific intervention strategies. The two real stumbling blocks are documenting whether complex and synergistic multi‐sectoral community change leads to population‐level behavioral and health outcomes and, then, parceling out the added value of a coalition approach over other approaches to creating community change.
