A universal framework to evaluate community-based rehabilitation interventions
Community-based rehabilitation (CBR) aims to improve the quality of life for people with disabilities by promoting social inclusion and equal opportunities. Despite its widespread use, there is no standardised framework to evaluate CBR interventions, particularly in low- and middle-income countries …

Investigating an Executive Function Intervention Using Goal Management Training in HIV+ Adolescents in South Africa
… in South African adolescents, neuropsychological rehabilitation interventions are largely absent. Currently, metacognitive approaches such as Goal Management Training (GMT) demonstrate the best evidence base for improving executive functions. The main aim of this study was to evaluate the …
