Purpose: The aim of the study was to investigate challenges and opportunities of environmental sustainability and social justice in the face of climate change and ecological crisis in Japan Methodology: This study adopted a desk methodology. A desk study research design is commonly known as secondary data collection. This is basically collecting data from existing resources preferably because of its low cost advantage as compared to a field research. Our current study looked into already published studies and reports as the data was easily accessed through online journals and libraries. Findings: Japan faces challenges in environmental sustainability and social justice due to its reliance on fossil fuels and an aging population. Transitioning to renewables and addressing healthcare for the elderly are critical. However, Japan's technological prowess presents opportunities for cleaner energy solutions. The country's strong sense of community can aid social justice efforts during climate-related disasters, promising a more sustainable and equitable future. Unique Contribution to Theory, Practice and Policy: Environmental justice theory, ecological modernization theory & political ecology theory may be used to anchor future studies on challenges and opportunities of environmental sustainability and social justice in the face of climate change and ecological crisis in Japan. Policymakers and practitioners should adopt integrated strategies that consider both environmental sustainability and social justice in climate change mitigation and adaptation efforts. Governments and international organizations should incorporate environmental justice principles into climate policies, ensuring that marginalized communities have equitable access to environmental benefits and are protected from environmental harms.

Purpose: The aim of the study was to investigate dynamics of cultural diversity and intercultural communication in the era of multiculturalism and cosmopolitanism Methodology: This study adopted a desk methodology. A desk study research design is commonly known as secondary data collection. This is basically collecting data from existing resources preferably because of its low cost advantage as compared to a field research. Our current study looked into already published studies and reports as the data was easily accessed through online journals and libraries. Findings: Brazil showcases a vibrant blend of cultural diversity and cosmopolitanism, where various traditions coexist. While cosmopolitanism fosters openness to global perspectives, social and economic inequalities persist, impacting access to opportunities. Ethnic and racial tensions remain, particularly affecting marginalized communities. In summary, Brazil's multicultural landscape presents a dynamic mix of cultural influences, but challenges related to inequality and cultural identity preservation persist. Unique Contribution to Theory, Practice and Policy: Cultural pluralism theory, cosmopolitanism theory & contact theory may be used to anchor future studies on dynamics of cultural diversity and intercultural communication in the era of multiculturalism and cosmopolitanism. Organizations, educational institutions, and community programs should prioritize intercultural competence training. Advocate for multicultural policies that recognize and celebrate cultural diversity within societies.

Purpose: This paper examines the changing patterns of social inequality and stratification in relation to migration, ethnicity, gender, class, and education Methodology: This study adopted a desk methodology. A desk study research design is commonly known as secondary data collection. This is basically collecting data from existing resources preferably because of its low cost advantage as compared to a field research. Our current study looked into already published studies and reports as the data was easily accessed through online journals and libraries. Findings: Changing patterns of social inequality and stratification are influenced by migration, ethnicity, gender, class, and education. Migration can lead to economic disparities for immigrants, either through improved opportunities or exploitation. Ethnicity remains a significant factor, with ethnic minorities facing discrimination and limited access to resources. Gender inequality persists with disparities in pay and leadership roles, while class-based inequality continues through inheritance and income distribution. Access to quality education plays a vital role in social mobility, but disparities in resources and rising tuition costs can limit opportunities. Unique Contribution to Theory, Practice and Policy: Intersectionality theory, Human capital theory & Transnationalism theory may be used to anchor future studies on changing patterns of social inequality and stratification in relation to migration, ethnicity, gender, class, and education. Organizations and institutions should implement diversity and inclusion programs that go beyond tokenism. Develop and implement comprehensive immigration reform policies that address the rights and social integration of migrants.

Purpose: The aim of the study was to investigate impact of globalization and digitalization on social movements and collective action across different regions and contexts Methodology: This study adopted a desk methodology. A desk study research design is commonly known as secondary data collection. This is basically collecting data from existing resources preferably because of its low cost advantage as compared to a field research. Our current study looked into already published studies and reports as the data was easily accessed through online journals and libraries. Findings: Globalization and digitalization have profoundly affected social movements and collective action. They enable global connectivity, amplify marginalized voices, and give rise to diverse movements. However, challenges include government control, digital inequality, and the need for new tactics. Activists now use digital platforms to mobilize globally, but also face increased state repression. The digital age has led to innovative strategies and ongoing evolution of the global activist landscape. Unique Contribution to Theory, Practice and Policy: Resource mobilization theory, network theory & transnational activism theory may be used to anchor future studies on impact of globalization and digitalization on social movements and collective action across different regions and contexts. Movements should prioritize digital literacy and security training for their members. Policymakers should address the digital divide by implementing policies and initiatives that ensure equitable access to digital resources, particularly in marginalized regions

Purpose: The aim of the study was to investigate role of religion and secularism in shaping social values, norms, and identities in various societies and communities in Egypt. Methodology: This study adopted a desk methodology. A desk study research design is commonly known as secondary data collection. This is basically collecting data from existing resources preferably because of its low cost advantage as compared to a field research. Our current study looked into already published studies and reports as the data was easily accessed through online journals and libraries. Findings: Religion, especially Islam, has historically been a significant influence on social values and norms in Egypt. The government has also played a role in promoting conservative religious interpretations. Egypt's religious diversity and evolving social movements have contributed to a dynamic environment where religion and secularism intersect in shaping societal identities and values. Unique Contribution to Theory, Practice and Policy: Social identity theory & secularization theory& religious pluralism theory may be used to anchor future studies on role of religion and secularism in shaping social values, norms, and identities in various societies and communities in Egypt. Encourage interfaith dialogue and initiatives that foster mutual understanding and respect among religious and secular communities. Develop and implement policies that safeguard religious freedom and secularism as fundamental human rights.
