E-Book Women Of The Shore Stories Of Motherhood And Resilience

Women of the Shore Stories of Motherhood and Resilience offers an insightful and compassionate look into the lives of pregnant women and mothers with toddlers living in poor coastal communities of East Java. Enriched by sociological and feminist perspectives, the book highlights how these women navigate health challenges, social pressures, and the unprecedented disruptions of the COVID-19 pandemic.

The book opens with an introduction to the realities of coastal poverty. It then explores theories of social resilience, women’s empowerment, and the multiple burdens carried by mothers in marginalized environments. Readers are guided through detailed portraits of the women’s daily lives including their backgrounds, living conditions, and the cultural dynamics that shape their experiences.

Subsequent chapters reveal how these mothers understand health and the pandemic, where they obtain information, and how they adjust their social practices to protect themselves and their children. The narrative also uncovers the network of community actors such as health workers, local leaders, NGOs, and family members who play vital roles in supporting maternal and child health during crises.

Together, these chapters create a vivid, human-centered account of survival, strength, and solidarity. This book ultimately celebrates the resilience of coastal mothers and highlights the urgent need for inclusive, community-based health interventions.
