Abstract:
The Constitution of Ukraine guarantees the availability and free of charge of higher education, however, it further specifies that citizens have the right to obtain higher education free of charge on a competitive basis. Taking into account the fact that obtaining higher education on a fee-based basis is expensive, the state, by legislative acts, undertakes to ensure equal access to higher education for socially vulnerable sections of the population. There is no further clarification in the legislation about what is meant by equal access to higher education for socially vulnerable segments of

Abstract:
Theoretical analyses have suggested that the magnitude of antipredator responses of prey should be related to the intensity of predation. To examine this proposal at the population level, we removed all fishes from a natural pond in Finland, divided the pond into sections with plastic curtains, and stocked each section with equal populations of crucian carp (Carassius carassius), a common lentic cyprinid. Stocking of perch (Perca fluviatilis) and recolonization by pike (Exos lucius) created a gradient of predation pressure across three sections (I > II > III). Within 1 month, fewer cruci

Family members, parents and caregivers are an important source of protection and emotional support for children. Children separated from their loved ones, during a crisis event, find themselves in an unfamiliar place, surrounded by unfamiliar people. They are often very frightened and unable to correctly assess the risk and dangers around them. Reuniting unaccompanied children, including teenagers, with their loved ones is an important first step. If the children are with their parents, you should try to support the adults in taking care of the children. People who may face discrimination and

Abstract The relationship between biomineralization and microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC) is intuitive—microorganisms influence corrosion by both forming and dissolving minerals. Biomineralization that results in mineral deposition on a metal surface can shift the corrosion potential in either a positive or negative direction, depending on the nature of the mineral. Manganese oxide biodeposition on stainless steel surfaces forces a shift in the positive, more noble direction, making some stainless steels more vulnerable to pitting and crevice corrosion.

In addition, survivors of the disease can develop post-COVID symptoms, including neurological changes, which have been neglected in primary healthcare. These changes can include memory difficulties, peripheral neuropathy, and dysautonomia. Objectives: To screen the vulnerable population with post-COVID symptoms, in order to generate an epidemiological and severity perspective of cases and generate management and rehabilitation resource allocat

Abstract:
Background: The population living in therapeutic clinics faces several weaknesses, especially concerning health-related aspects. Due to limited accessibility to health services, testing for infectious diseases and corresponding treatments are neglected. This scenario, added to risk behaviors, contributes substantially to the high incidence of sexually transmitted infections (STIs) in the population under analysis. Objective: To understand the prevalence of STIs in the population living in therapeutic clinics. Methods: This study, conducted through the Scientific Initiation Program and approved

An ecological security assessment model was created for the City of Matlosana Municipality in the North West Province of South Africa for 2001, 2014, 2016, 2018 and 2020. The pressure-state-response model considered the climate, mining activities, and population density to be the drivers that place pressure on the ecological security of the municipality. Indicators of the pressures on and state and response of the environment were derived from remote sensing data sets, including Landsat, Sentinel-2 and MODIS satellites, and world population density and rainfall data provided by various organis

Abstract:
Mauritius is one of the signatories of CEDAW and gender equality is among its top national priorities. However, due to gender inequalities in education and employment, women still face invisible barriers in many institutions of the society and are over-represented in most vulnerable sections of the population. The National Women’s Council’s Adult Literacy Programme (ALP) forms part of ongoing efforts to socially and economically empower women in Mauritius. Still, many women do not participate in such literacy programmes. The Social Work degree course at the Open University of Mauritius allows

Abstract:
Poverty is a multifaceted phenomenon linked to the lack of capabilities of households to earn a sustainable livelihood, increasingly being assessed using multidimensional indicators. Its spatial pattern depends on social, economic, political, and regional variables. Artificial intelligence has shown immense scope in analyzing the complexities and nuances of poverty. The proposed project aims to examine the poverty situation of rural India for the period of 1990-2022 based on the quality of life and livelihood indicators. The districts will be classified into ‘advanced’, ‘catching up’, ‘falling

Full text
Abstract:
As the needs of people affected by conflict, natural disasters and other crises grow year-on-year and become increasingly complex, the need for adapted service delivery has become ever more pressing. There is widespread recognition that top-down, externally driven support to service delivery is ineffective in reaching vulnerable populations in need of humanitarian support. Increasing strategic engagement by and with local actors is now an accepted norm for effective international humanitarian action (Metcalfe-Hough et al., 2021). International commitments have been made to improve the provisio

The project targeted out-of-school adolescent girls and young women aged 16–22 residing in low-income and slum areas of Nairobi. TRY used a modified group-based micro-finance model to extend integrated savings, credit, business support, and mentoring to out-of-school adolescents and young women.

Abstract:
Health insurance refers to a health financing mechanism that involves the pooling of eligible, individual contributions in order to cover all or part of the cost of certain health services for all those who are insured. Health insurance scheme coverage in low-income countries is low, especially among vulnerable populations such as children, the elderly, women, low-income individuals, rural population, racial or ethnic minorities, immigrants, informal sector workers, and people with disability or chronic diseases. Consequently, thousands of vulnerable people suffer and die from preventable and

Abstract:
Yemen is experiencing one of the worst crises in the world in terms of levels of suffering and humanitarian need. Intense civil war since 2014 has devastated the national economy, and approximately two-thirds of the population (21.6 million people) were assessed as being in need of humanitarian assistance and protection services in 2023 (OCHA 2023a). In response to such huge levels of need, a substantial humanitarian aid operation has been ongoing for the past eight years.

Abstract:
Poverty reduction is an increasingly important consideration in the deliberations over multilateral trade liberalization. However, the analytical procedures used to assess the impacts of multilateral trade liberalization on poverty are rudimentary, at best. Most poverty studies have focused on a single country using detailed household survey data. When it comes to multi-country, global trade liberalization analyses, researchers are often forced to resort to a discussion of average, or per capita effects, suggesting that if per capita real income rises, then poverty will fall.
