The aim of this research was to assess the quality of life of children placed in foster care institutions in Kinshasa, and to identify its socio-demographic determinants. It also aimed to indirectly assess the effectiveness of comprehensive care for children placed in these institutions. Against this backdrop, the McGill Quality of Life Scale was administered to a sample of 210 children placed in five care institutions in Kinshasa. The results of the study showed that the children in care had a good general, psychological, physical, existential and social quality of life. Four socio-demographic variables had a decisive influence on the quality of life of these children. These were gender, length of stay at the center, age and type of deceased parent.

The article explores the performance of microfinance institutions during economic disruptions, highlighting their crucial role in financial inclusion and entrepreneurship. Focusing on the Republic of Moldova between 2009-2023, the study uses data from national financial bodies to evaluate key metrics, including loan growth and gross domestic product rates. Results showcase the microfinance sector's consistent growth, directly linked to economic progress and increasing credit demand. Furthermore, the sector significantly boosted financial inclusion, evident from the growing number of beneficiaries and their loan sizes. Notably, microfinance institutions exhibited robust performance during economic crises, such as the COVID-19 pandemic and the Ukraine War, sustaining continuous growth even amidst local economic contractions. However, the study also points to certain limitations, suggesting a deeper look into the effects of regulatory measures and the promise of technology-driven innovations on the sector's future.

Human Resource Development integrates and aligns training and development with organisational goals and strategy to improve performance. However, ingrained suboptimal skills and training opportunities in the Eastern Cape Department of Education (ECDoE) negatively impacts learning achievement outcomes. The purpose and objective of the study is to establish the relationship between training effectiveness and educator performance in the ECDoE.The study adopts a quantitative research strategy with 270 respondents. A survey questionnaire was used to collect data from participants. The survey questionnaire’s internal consistency and reliability were measured using Pearson's coefficient and Cronbach's alpha, respectively. Results show that most respondents did not view the trainings provided by the ECDoE as relevant to job performance, and the attainment of the Department’s strategic goals. The study concludes that ECDoE’s training should be closely aligned with educators’ Key Performance Areas, Performance Development Plans and individual needs analysis.

Creating food systems that provide healthy food for everyone without exploiting human or planetary resources, is one of the greatest challenges of this century. Front-end nutrition labeling and eco-efficiency systems have been proposed as a means of addressing health disparities and sustainable food and nutrition security. The aim of the study is the exploratory analysis of existing front-end nutrition labeling and eco-efficiency systems in order to make informed decisions about the further development of an effective labeling system. To carry out the study, the method of systematic document review and data triangulation was applied. The review provided information on the impact of color-coded labels and warnings in driving consumer purchasing behavior towards healthier products. Each labeling system had different attributes that should be taken into account when developing front-end nutrition labeling and eco-efficiency policies, depending on local contexts. However, front-end labeling is unlikely to be a panacea for changing consumer behavior but can target small incremental changes at different levels and actors in the food system.

The prevalence of cyberbullying and associated psychological problems on the victims has been on the increase, especially in the developing countries. While studies on the effects of cyberbullying and management of the victims have been done in developed countries, this is not the case in many developing countries. Therefore, this study investigated predictors of cyberbullying behavior among youths in Ibadan metropolis, Nigeria. Cross-sectional survey design was adopted while purposive sampling technique was used to select the two institutions. Data was collected from 416 students using three validated scales. Two hypotheses were tested using stepwise multiple regression analysis and t-test of independent samples. Results indicated that personality traits significantly predicted cyberbullying behavior among students in the two tertiary institutions. When aggression was introduced into the model, there was an additional amount of variance explained. Furthermore, the result revealed that male students reported higher cyberbullying behavior than female students. The study concluded that personality traits of extraversion, openness to experience, conscientiousness, neuroticism, and aggression are important predictors of cyberbullying behavior among students in the study population. The study recommended that discouraging cyberbullying would be achieved by understanding the personality traits and aggressive behavior that triggers students into cyberbullying.

This research takes stock of a didactic approach to remediation undertaken in a Frech foreign language class at the University of Blida 2. The experiment was initiated by a double observation. The first is the unsatisfactory quality of the texts produced by my students in the course of written comprehension-production, and the second being the negative relationship expressed by the latter vis-à-vis the literary modules. To remedy this, I designed a didactic device aimed at developing the scriptural skills of learners through the reading of literary short stories. The results generated by this study reveal a significant increase in the public concerned at the local level (microstructure) but especially on the global level (macrostructure) of the texts produced by the participants. Also, the data collected show the role of writing workshops in motivating learners to write in a foreign language. In addition, the literary short story has proven to be an effective educational tool to use in the language class to help learners improve their target language.

Practical experiences applied in the design of modules for the Computer Networks (CN) course unit are described, taking into account the main elements in this process, the specifics of teamwork, the structure and content of the 27 recorded modules/lessons (17 video lessons for teaching the theoretical content and 10 lessons for practical laboratory content), forms of teaching material representation and applied Information and Communication Technology (ICT) tools. The concept of multiple step learning (MLS) is a way to create eLearning courses that reflect the knowledge up to the course or topic to be discussed. The RC course unit is described as innovative with eLearning, content presented at different levels of complexity and each next stage explaining the topic in more detail than the previous content (interdisciplinary connections for better understanding). Based on student feedback, the MLS RC for the 2022/2023 study year has been supplemented with 2 methodical guidelines for carrying out practical and laboratory work (the first guideline medium level of complexity, guideline 2 high level of complexity – laboratory instructions explained step by step).

In modern organizations, decision-making processes are critical to effectively managing business operations. However, as organizations grow more complex, decision-making becomes more challenging and time-consuming, leading to a lack of agility, bottlenecks and decreased productivity. One of the assumptions in the article is that excessive complexity and uncontrolled secrecy in organizations lead to lack of understanding of how they work. This can be detrimental to decision-making processes, resulting in misinterpretations of data, misunderstandings of organizational objectives and ultimately, poor decision-making and results. These factors can create a wall of ignorance and irresponsibility within organizations. To address this issue, we propose the hypothesis that simplifying decision-making processes and making them more scalable and this will increase employee involvement and trust in the organization. Implementing scalable decision-making processes can create a framework for making consistent decisions across teams and departments, streamline the decision-making process, encourage critical thinking and enable the organization to respond more quickly and rationally to changing market conditions. The conclusion of the article is that applying scalable decision-making in organization can unlock new levels of manageability, improving the ability to make complex decisions and navigate dynamic situations. This model may be applicable to transportation and logistics companies, production units and plants and construction and manufacturing industries seeking to improve their performance and competitiveness in today's fast-paced business environment.

Forced migration is associated with several challenges. The challenges that refugee women faced in their host countries were numerous. There has been a gender bias in Ethiopian literature on refugees. Refugees are homogenized in the existing studies. The gender differences among refugees have an impact on the challenges of forced migration that they encounter and how they handle them. Moreover, no study has been done on the adaptation challenges faced by Yemeni refugee women in Addis Ababa. This study's main objective was to examine the challenges that Yemeni refugee women faced in Addis Ababa. An interpretative phenomenological analysis was employed to achieve that objective. Thirteen Yemeni refugee women were interviewed using a semi-structured interview guide to understand their experiences. Purposive sampling was used to choose study participants. The data was analyzed using interpretive phenomenological analysis procedures. The study's findings revealed that refugee women encountered several challenges that were detrimental to their well-being, including language difficulties, limited income and job opportunities, unrecognized identity papers and price increases, and housing problems. Furthermore, refugee women faced social isolation and sexual harassment. The study concluded that the challenges that Yemeni refugee women faced in Addis Ababa had an enormous impact on their well-being, which demands immediate intervention.
