Abstract:

Aim: The aim of this study was to examine the moral foundations structure in the Croatian population, and to examine possible changes in moral foundation structure after a major political scandal in Croatia. Methods: We conducted an online survey using Moral Foundations Questionnaire and Key Social Issues Scale, which was distributed in two waves, in 2009 and 2014. Participants were invited from the Faculties of Humanities and Social Sciences at the universities in Zagreb and Split and asked to distribute the survey to colleagues and friends. Results: 3000 participants completed the survey in

Static reimbursement, rising expenses and decreasing margins for hospice and palliative care programs in the US, limit funding for innovative and creative education, care-giver well-being and resilience efforts and workforce development. Whole Person Care in philanthropy can lead to healing not only of grateful patients, families and friends but can also be a source of healing, connectiveness and meaning for donors, board members, foundations and the community.  This presentation will share leadership practices which engage grateful patients, families, prospective donors, board members,

Abstract:

We explore a distance-3 homological CSS quantum code, namely the small stellated dodecahedron code, for dense storage of quantum information and we compare its performance with the distance-3 surface code. The data and ancilla qubits of the small stellated dodecahedron code can be located on the edges respectively vertices of a small stellated dodecahedron, making this code suitable for three-dimensional connectivity. This code encodes eight logical qubits into 30 physical qubits (plus 22 ancilla qubits for parity check measurements) in contrast with one logical qubit into nine physical qubits

R.J. Palacio’s Wonder explores the emotional journey of August Pullman, a child with a craniofacial condition, as he navigates school and social relationships for the first time. This paper analyzes the novel through the lens of Attachment Theory, as developed by John Bowlby and Mary Ainsworth, to examine the psychological dynamics underlying character development and interpersonal bonds. August’s secure attachments with his parents and friends foster resilience and self-acceptance, while his sister Via’s ambivalent attachment reveals her struggle for recognition within a family centered on he

Nature-Based Therapy seeks to improve essential components of human health and wellbeing by facilitating valuable opportunities to learn and engage with living, green, non-built nature. There is growing scientific evidence to support the multiple benefits of time spent in nature, urging a call for increased clinical and public health studies to better understand these relationships. Literature suggests that engaging people with nature in lasting and meaningful ways requires intentional activities that relate to everyday life, that bring family, friends and community members together.

Abstract:

It is generally assumed that the so-called populist explosion that has swept across liberal democracies since 2016 has led to a crisis of neoliberal reason in its original formulation. Owing to the close relationship between cities and neoliberalism, the crisis of neoliberal rationality has significantly impacted what is defined here ‘Western urbanology’. This definition brings together influential apologists of the urban age and its entrepreneurialist potential, starting with Richard Florida and Edward Glaeser. In recent times, these authors have started revisiting their conceptions and relat

Abstract:

Executive Summary: Mississippi’s aging population growth mirrors national trends and suggests a need to establish equitable and sustainable age-friendly policies and programs. This report offers an overview of the best practices from age-friendly states, which can be adapted to meet unique challenges and opportunities for Mississippi’s aging population. We highlight five age-friendly policy areas that can improve Mississippi’s livability. • Aging in Place: Best practices from California, Florida, and Massachusetts can be adapted to promote aging in place through structural changes to homes via

Abstract:

Scaling promising innovations to achieve systems change and the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goal 4 has been a growing focus in education. This report outlines the outcomes of a two-year collaborative project between Global Schools Forum, Schools2030, and HundrED, supported by the Jacobs Foundation under the Schools Action Learning Exchange (SALEX), which addressed the challenges of spreading effective innovations at scale. Despite the plethora of existing frameworks, our three organisations have seen how education practitioners face barriers like inaccessible language, fragmented t

Abstract:

Climate change poses escalating risks to Egypt’s ecosystems, economy, and vulnerable populations, particularly through heatwaves and flash floods. The Enhancing Risk Assessments (ERA) project supports the Egyptian Government in developing data-driven adaptation and risk financing strategies using an integrated modelling framework that combines the Economics of Climate Adaptation (ECA), CLIMADA, and DGE-CRED. RISK WISE interface acts as a user-friendly Graphical User Interface to explore and display the results. Analysis under future climate scenarios reveals that agriculture, tourism, and ener

Abstract:

What makes some children succeed despite studying in failing education systems? Are these children exceptionally gifted, or do other psychological or sociological factors and family circumstances contribute to success? To address the learning crisis in state schools in developing countries, development agencies have primarily focused on identifying inputs that can improve state education provision. Yet, even from low-performing state schools, some children do manage to successfully complete primary and secondary education cycles, pursue higher education, and record upward social mobility, but

Full text

Abstract:

Maximizing food production with minimal negative effects on the environment remains a long-term challenge for sustainable food production. Microbial pathogens cause devastating diseases, minimizing crop losses by controlling plant diseases can contribute significantly to this goal. All plants possess an innate immune system that is activated after recognition of microbial-derived molecules. The fungal protein Eix induces defense responses in tomato and tobacco. Plants recognize Eix through a leucine-rich-repeat receptor- like-protein (LRR-RLP) termed LeEix. Despite the knowledge obtained from

Abstract:

When considering countries of phenomenal economic development and growth, Korea is among the top tiers. While there are other economies with similar economic growth, including those of Singapore, Hong Kong, and Taiwan, the economic growth of Korea is exceptional considering that the country lacked basic economic foundation in the past. R. Lucas Jr. (1993), a Nobel Laureate in economics and also a renowned scholar of the respective field, praised the country's economic success, by stating that "I do not think it is in any way an exaggeration to refer to this continuing transformation of Korean
