The central argument of this paper was to examine the intervention of Multinational Corporations toward improving tertiary education. Tertiary education in Nigeria is undoubtedly challenged; among these issues are inadequate funding and mismanagement of funds, infrastructural problem, and ongoing strike by university lecturers. A qualitative method of data collection and analysis was used for the study. Interviews were conducted, and NVivo software was utilized in the transcription, coding, and analysis of data from the interview. This was supported by the secondary data, including journals, relevant books, periodicals, newspaper reports, internet sources, government releases, and CSR reports. The findings reveal that per Sustainable Development Goals for education (SDG 4: Quality Education), Etisalat has considerably improved Nigeria’s Tertiary education. This includes the Etisalat telecommunications engineering postgraduate program. The scholarship was also provided for university lecturers to improve their capacity. It has empowered the local lecturers to learn cutting-edge competence in telecommunication engineering. Since its inception, the merit scholarship award has improved the knowledge of STEM among Nigeria’s tertiary institutions. This study adds to the literature on the role of non-state actors, especially Multinational Corporations, in developing the education sector in Nigeria and achieving sustainable development goals around the globe.

The paradigm of innovation has evolved over the last decades worldwide. The old conception of innovation as technological change has become more diversified and specialised. Current debates express the need to provide a holistic view of innovation, with its pros and cons, including all dimensions of innovation in society and different fields. This paper consists of a qualitative review focusing on three concepts: ‘innovation’, ‘social innovation’ and ‘innovation in education’. This research includes a historical analysis within 1939–2019 as the base period of analysis. This article is based on 108 different sources, which were carefully selected. The analysis was carried out with content analysis in our main sample. This paper contributes to our understanding of innovation more holistically, by discovering how innovation is understood and used, but also by looking at the different stages it has gone through in historical debates and evolutionary trends. This article presents different perspectives on innovation over time and helps to recognise the evolution of the concept of innovation and the emergence of social innovation as a field of its own. Furthermore, the relevance of innovation in the field of education is presented and current debates on the understanding of innovation are situated.

Background: Higher education has been undermined by a multitude of difficulties that have directly affected university students’ learning and quality of life in French-speaking West African universities. Among others, massification, student pauperization, high rate of unemployment, current living environments, university managerial systems, and university poor infrastructures alongside terrorism threats on education have affected students’ lifestyles, learning, achievements, mental health but also teaching, and learner-instructor interrelationship. Purpose: The present study aimed to gauge university students’ classification of factors that have significant impacts on their current studies and well-being, and aimed to gauge whether the classified factors predict students’ psychological distress Methodology: Participants included 348 male and female university students. Descriptive and regression analyses were utilized to assess significant factors that affect students’ learning and life quality. Major findings: The findings suggested that economic challenges, perceived unemployment, and difficulties relating to the students’ areas of study were respectively the three main factors that affect students’ life quality and cause psychological distress. The latter are followed by potential sicknesses and social factors such as loneliness, and attitudes pertaining to instructors, family members, and friends. General conclusion: The study revealed significant effects of economic challenges on students’ levels of depression and stress, and a significant effect of family members’ attitudes on students’ levels of anxiety. The researchers discussed the findings and made important recommendations.

Research on conspiracy theories has revealed a significant association between conspiratorial thinking and education. The relationship is complex, however, and has so far been limited primarily to investigations of personal psychological attributes. This paper argues, instead, in favour of a broader social research perspective, specifically, one informed by a dialectical materialist philosophy. A secondary analysis of publicly available international data sourced from economic institutions and other organisations on conspiratorial belief, educational performance measures, unemployment, inequality and corruption perception was carried out. Conspiratorial belief was taken as a collective public epistemological phenomenon across countries, to explore the role of contemporary education systems across societies, and the degree to which they are successfully nurturing an effective form of critical thinking. A dialectical materialist philosophical approach was instrumental in formulating the study scope and interpreting the findings, given the use of countries as the fundamental unit of analysis. Multiple regression analysis was used to examine the relationship between belief in conspiracy theories and education, taking into account social context using unemployment, inequality, and corruption as control variables. The findings showed that the relationship between conspiratorial thinking and education held at the societal level, and was mediated by additional social factors. The paper goes on to argue, by virtue of the nature of the mediators, that education systems generally tend to fall short of effective and socially-engaged forms of critical pedagogy.

The media's information and enticement functions have grown increasingly important as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic. The purpose of this research on the anti-vaccination movement in Turkey was to better elucidate the different types of arguments that are deployed by key actors in the field of anti-vaccination, especially online. This research has analyzed the anti-vaccine movement, particularly in Turkey. More specifically, the argument that is deployed online by the alternative Turkish news websites is being analyzed. According to the results of the study, it was found that the news sites do not agree even when it comes to global issues such as pandemics. It is searched that alternative news websites have adopted the discourse of anti-vaccination without truly basing their arguments on scientific facts.

The fact that children are faced with all kinds of risk situations constitutes the background for considering them as one of the disadvantaged groups. One of these risk situations is poverty. This research is based on interviews with children and their parents (45 parents, 33 children) in the households living in the city center of Elazig (through SASA) designated as poor. In order to analyze better a special and disadvantageous issue such as child poverty, it is aimed to make an in-depth analysis of this issue. A qualitative research method was preferred for the study because it aimed to conduct interviews with poor individuals. In order to determine the universe and sample of the research, the snowball sampling technique, a sampling method, was used. The data in the study is a case study based on the analysis of the answers obtained from the form of the interview. The data of the study is based on in-depth interviews conducted with school-aged child and their parents. The obtained data were analyzed with quantitative (tables) and qualitative (interview notes) research techniques. Thus, it is aimed to determine the socioeconomic problems and needs of the poor children such as education, health, nutrition, and shelter, and to make a sociological analysis of them.
