In an inclusive society, people with Intellectual Disabilities (ID) are socially connected and fully participate in all realms of life, including education and employment. In a digital society being able to use technology for learning and working is a condition for participation and not remaining behind. For that reason, efforts should be made to assure that all citizens have access to technology and are helped, if needed, to develop their digital skills. The objective of this paper is to provide a framework for designing learning programs addressed to people with ID. The aims of these programs would be to support the development of digital skills and enable the use of Assistive Technologies (AT) or the combination of Information Communication Technology and AT (ICT-AT). The framework provided is based on the European funded project "Keeping Pace with Assistive Technology (KPT)" that was adapted for the specific target group of people with ID.

“…Commencing during the consultation phase and continuing through the trial, community participatory action research37 will be used to engage community members and service providers in defining the format (including online, social media, posters, flipcharts, mobile phone messaging, music videos, public service announcements) and content of health promotion materials. The messages will focus on the importance of seeking healthcare for skin infections as well as appropriate prevention strategies (including good skin hygiene, insect bite prevention, care of minor trauma and maintenance of skin integrity) 32.…”

IntroductionSkin is important in Australian Aboriginal culture informing kinship and identity. In many remote Aboriginal communities, scabies and impetigo are very common. Untreated skin infections are painful, itchy and frequently go untreated due to under-recognition and lack of awareness of their potential serious complications. We hypothesise that the skin infection burden in remote Aboriginal communities can be reduced by implementing streamlined training and treatment pathways integrated with environmental health and health promotion activities, tested in the See, Treat, Prevent (SToP skin sores and scabies) trial.Methods and analysisSToP will evaluate a skin control programme using a stepped-wedge, cluster randomised trial design with three intervention components (the ‘SToP activities’): (1) seeing skin infections (development of training resources implemented within a community dermatology model); (2) treating skin infections (employing the latest evidence for impetigo, and scabies treatment); and (3) preventing skin infections (embedded, culturally informed health promotion and environmental health activities). Four community clusters in the remote Kimberley region of Western Australia will participate. Following baseline data collection, two clusters will be randomly allocated to the SToP activities. At 12 months, the remaining two clusters will transition to the SToP activities. The primary outcome is the diagnosis of impetigo in children (5–9 years) at school-based surveillance. Secondary outcome measures include scabies diagnosis, other child health indicators, resistance to cotrimoxazole in circulating pathogenic bacteria, determining the economic burden of skin disease and evaluating the cost effectiveness of SToP activities.Ethics and disseminationThis study protocol was approved by the health ethics review committees at the Child and Adolescent Health Service (Approval number RGS0000000584), the Western Australian Aboriginal Health Ethics Committee (Reference number: 819) and the University of Western Australia (Reference RA/4/20/4123). Study findings will be shared with community members, academic and medical communities via publications and presentations, and in reports to funders. Authorship for all publications based on this study will be determined in line with the Uniform Requirements for Manuscripts Submitted to Biomedical Journals published by the International Committee of Medical Journal Editors. Sharing results with organisations and communities who contributed to the study is paramount. The results of the SToP trial will be shared with participants in a suitable format, such as a single summary page provided to participants or presentations to communities, the Kimberly Aboriginal Health Planning Forum Research Subcommittee and other stakeholders as appropriate and as requested. Communication and dissemination will require ongoing consultation with Aboriginal communities to determine appropriate formats.Trial registration numberACTRN12618000520235.

This research is to find out the leadership of the village government and to find out society participation in development planning in Pattondon Salu Village, Maiwa District, Enrekang Regency. The hypothesis of this study is that village government leadership has a significant effect on optimizing society participation in development planning. The location of this research in Pattondon Salu Village, Maiwa District, Enrekang Regency. The population in this study is 133 Families (KK). The sampling technique uses incidental sampling with the Slovin formula. The sample in this study is 100 Families (KK). The techniques of collecting data use observation, questionnaires, documentation, and interviews. Quantitative data analysis techniques using frequency tabulation analysis methods and simple regression analysis using the SPSS 16.0 for Windows program. This results shows that, 1) Village government leadership is categorized in the good criteria with an average percentage of 63.95%, 2) Society participation in development planning categorized as a fairly good with an average percentage of 58.95%. In addition, there is a strong influence between village government leadership and the optimization of society participation in development planning.
