This paper examines the concept of leadership in a dynamic world influenced by various economic, social, religious, and political factors. Specifically, it focuses on the functionality of leadership within the global Adventist Church, taking into account emerging issues. The Adventist leadership model emphasizes the importance of consultation, drawing from the biblical principle found in Deuteronomy 19:15. This unique leadership approach offers several advantages, including policy compliance, shared authority and accountability, consideration of diverse perspectives and opinions, knowledge sharing, effective decision-making, and efficient governance. The paper highlights how the Adventist Church's leadership approach, centered on consultation, has contributed to its longevity and ability to chart its own course, distinct from approaches influenced by external factors. Consultative leadership approach has promoted unity and harmony within the church. By valuing diverse opinions and fostering a culture of respectful dialogue, the church has been able to mitigate conflicts and build consensus. This collaborative spirit has strengthened the bonds among members and has contributed to the overall cohesiveness and stability of the church. This approach has allowed the church to stay true to its core values, adapt to evolving circumstances, and maintain a distinct identity, setting it apart from approaches driven solely by external influences. Ultimately, this consultative leadership approach has played a significant role in shaping the trajectory of the Adventist church over its 160-year history, setting it apart from approaches driven by external influences.

The purpose of this study was to assess the usability of the Moodle LMS at the National Institute of Transport in Tanzania. The study employed a descriptive research design that involved the use of a questionnaires and interview to collect data from 35 educators who were using the Moodle LMS. Quantitative data was analyzed using the SPSS while qualitative data involved content analysis. The study identified effectiveness, satisfaction, memorability, learnability and errors factors to be used to assess usability issues. The study revealed that educators encountered usability problems related to navigation, content, layout, interaction, feedback, help and support. The study recommends that the NIT should focus on providing a user-friendly interface, clear content, consistent layout, enhanced interaction and timely feedback to improve the usability of the Moodle LMS. By addressing these usability problems, NIT will enhance the effectiveness of teaching and learning activities. Moreover, the study recommends regular training to teachers on how to use the Moodle LMS.

The study researched on impact of Baboon’s raiding on learning in fringe communities of the Shai Hills Resource Reserve, Ghana. The study utilized the descriptive research design. The population included farmers, teachers, students and other residents who lives around the 100 m radius of the protected area. Stratified random sampling determined 250 residents. Qualitative data was collected through semi-structured interviews and focus group discussions while quantitative data was collected through surveys and observation. Data analysis involved descriptive statistics and thematic approach. Observed activities of baboons included movement, socializing, resting and feeding, occurring at various times throughout the monitoring periods. Notably, feeding accounted for the majority of observed activities. The baboons spent fewer hours in the reserve during the daytime, most likely due to scarcity of suitable food, which is a crucial resource for wildlife. During school hours (between 8:00 am and 3:00 pm), the baboons interrupted the teaching and learning activities. Their struggle for survival, co-existing with humans in the same space for food and water heightened conflicts, particularly within the fringe communities of the SHRR. The study recommends that research and conservation efforts are necessary to mitigate potential conflicts between wildlife and human communities in the studied area. Challenges of wildlife-human coexistence call for further efforts in managing conflicts to address both wildlife and human interests.

The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between job satisfactions and teachers’ mobility in Momba District, Tanzania. The study used a survey research design. The target population of the study was 185 teachers from eleven randomly selected schools from whom the sample of 126 teachers filled the questionnaire. The analysis of data involved binary logistic regression. The study revealed that teachers who were not satisfied with distance to places where a good houses are found were more likely to be mobile compared to those who are satisfied with the distance to good houses. Similarly, teachers who were not satisfied with the distance to a place where higher education is available are more likely to be mobile compared to those who are satisfied with the distance to a place where higher education is available. The rest of independent variables did not affect teachers’ mobility. The study recommended that the management of the Momba District Council in collaboration with local communities should improve conditions of living in terms of constructing attractive houses, which will extinct teachers’ desires to move to schools located near good houses.

This study investigated about victims’ satisfaction with procedural justice reforms in Kakamega Law Courts, Kenya through the descriptive cross-sectional design. The target population included 379 victims of sexual and gender-based violence who were primary respondents, extracted from Kakamega Law Courts records from 1st January 2019 to 1st March 2022. Yamane's method determined a sample size of 199 respondents who filled a questionnaire. Additionally, the researchers purposefully picked 15 key informants through interview. The researchers analyzed the qualitative data thematically. Descriptive statistics treated the quantitative data. Pearson Product Moment Correlation Coefficient determined the existing relationship between the independent and the dependent variables. The study concludes that the most pertinent needs of vulnerable victims involved in the study were those of protection from further harm. Authorities met the needs for information and participation to some extent. The current approach to meeting the information needs of victims focused on their instrumental role in providing evidence to facilitate the state function of seeking justice. Meeting the victims’ needs somewhat increased their satisfaction with court services. The study recommends that criminal justice practitioners should prioritize the needs of vulnerable victims by ensuring that they are safe, supported and empowered. It is essential to empower victims by involving them in decision-making processes that directly influence their cases, ensuring that relevant authorities hear their voices and respect them throughout the legal process.

This study assessed the information security risk management practices in in Tanzanian Higher Education Institutions (HEIs). It employed the sequential explanatory research design. Out of 51 HLIs in Tanzania, the study selected 10 HEIs from Dar es Salaam. The researchers computed the sample estimation through the Cochran’s formula for large population with a precision level of ±10 percentage and confidence level of 95%. The actual sample size was 96 ICT professionals in terms of ICT directors, network administrators, system administrators, ICT support staff and lecturers of ICT. The study used a closed-ended questionnaire, which had Yes/No questions and a structured interview, which collect qualitative data. Quantitative data analysis from the questionnaire was done through descriptive statistics using the SPSS whereas qualitative data from interviews was analyzed using the thematic analysis approach. The study uncovered a notable absence of risk management frameworks and inadequate integration of procedures within institutional strategies. While some HEIs demonstrated effective safeguarding of sensitive information, others required enhancements. The study recommend that HEIs should establish formal risk management frameworks and integrate them strategically into institutional plans. To bridge the implementation gap, HEIs should prioritize comprehensive training, require management support and tailor practices according to their specific contexts.
