“…Veríssimo et al., 2018), we investigated four information sources for their level of credibility across the five sites where we collected data in 2018–2019. BC campaigns could increase their efficacy by using more credible channels such as TV, over social media, which we found to be the least trusted communication channel; however, TV is generally more expensive and less targeted than social media (Danaher & Dagger, 2013; Pfeiffer & Zinnbauer, 2010) and TV access is still relatively poor in some rural areas of Cambodia, where electricity is challenging to acquire (Han et al., 2020 and Shyu, 2020).…”

“…In a culture where males were preferred, females might have less access to media and TV, especially in poor households, due to media and TV subscriptions requiring additional expenses [ 52 , 54 ]. In Cambodia, where biomass is more frequently used as an energy source compared to electricity [ 55 ], the lack of access to media could prevent mothers from acquiring professional information and new knowledge by watching TV.…”

Background Optimal child feeding practices contribute to reducing child undernutrition in low- and middle-income countries. Minimum dietary diversity (MDD) is a key indicator of complementary feeding quality for children aged 6-23 months. We aimed to examine the gender-common and gender-specific factors associated with the failure to meet MDD in eight Asia Pacific countries. Methods The study used data of children aged 6-23 months from the Demographic and Health Surveys (DHS) conducted in Afghanistan (n = 8410), Bangladesh (n = 2371), Nepal (n = 1478), Pakistan (n = 3490), Cambodia (n = 2182), Indonesia (n = 5133), Myanmar (n = 1379), and Timor-Leste (n = 2115). A total of 41 household, maternal, and child-level variables were examined for association with MDD using univariate and multivariable logistic regressions. All analyses accounted for the survey design and sampling weights. Results Being aged 6-11 months, not receiving Vitamin A supplementation, low maternal education, belonging to a low wealth quintile, and having two or more young children in the household were factors related to the failure to meet MDD among both male and female children. Mothers’ not watching TV or not being exposed to media at least once a week, delivery at home, young age, and engagement to non-agricultural work were only significant risk factors among female children. Non-professional delivery assistance, unsafe disposal of children’s stool, tolerant attitudes towards domestic violence, and rural residence were significant factors only among male children. Conclusions It is possible that male and female children in the region may consume food in various ways, because the factors for meeting MDD are not the same for different genders of children. It is advised to enhance dietary diversity in child nutrition programmes through gender-specific activities.

“…That is, the villagers will gradually shift their dependence on non-commercial energy sources such as straw, rewood and bulk coal to electricity (Riva and Colombo 2020). The improvement of rural electri cation can not only improve the e ciency of people's work and study, but also diversify people's ways of entertainment and study, thus improving people's physical and mental health (Han et al 2020). Electri cation has also increased the use of household appliances in rural areas and improved the quality of life of the people (Mahajan et al 2020), thereby changing lifestyles, improving the per capita income, and accelerating the pace of urbanization in rural areas towards a relatively well-off society (Sedai et al 2021).…”

In order to find the model of rural energy transformation in Henan Province. This paper examines the effects of population, per capita income, total value of agricultural output, per capita housing area, electric motor power, total power of rural durable goods on rural power consumption (PC) and effective irrigation area, per capita housing area, total power of agricultural machinery, total value of agricultural output, rural population, and energy intensity on rural total energy consumption (TEC) employing Tapio decoupling model. In addition, PSO-BOP is used to predict the values of each influencing factor in 2020-2025. Last, the STIRPAT model is used to forecast TEC and PC from 2020-2025 based on the data of rural energy consumption in Henan Province from 2009-2019. The results show that other factors besides population promote TEC and PC to different degrees. Moreover, the influencing factors, TEC and PC form a virtuous cycle of mutual promotion. Then, TEC and PC consumption show an increasing trend year by year in 2020-2025. It is worth noting that after 2022, the variation of PC is greater than that of TEC. To sum up, improving rural electrification level is a necessary way to realize its low-carbon energy transition.
