This project explores the multifaceted impact of a crippling Chinese economy on Multinational Corporations (MNCs) and examines their strategic responses. As disruptions in China ripple through supply chains, reshaping market dynamics, and introducing regulatory ambiguities, MNCs must skillfully navigate these challenges to uphold resilience and pursue sustained growth. Concurrently, India also emerges as a potential alternative for MNCs seeking stability and growth opportunities beyond China. This research paper delves into understanding the factors of Chinas economic growth over years, the cause for the downfall, and strategic measures that India can adopt to harness the potential inflow of FDI amidst the evolving global economic landscape, such as policy reforms, infrastructure development, and sector-specific incentives. The analysis section examines the major factors that determine the economy such as GDP growth rate, Population, FDI, Youth unemployment rate, GDP Per capita income and forecast of Indias momentum in FY25 based on secondary data. The conclusion emphasizes the central theme of harnessing Indias vast growth potential while confronting the key challenges that impede its expansion. By implementing strategic policies and precise reforms, India can sustain its robust growth trajectory, surpassing the $5 trillion threshold.

Hip fractures in elderly patients significantly burden health and healthcare costs. Effective pain management is crucial for optimal recovery, prompting the exploration of innovative strategies like peripheral nerve blocks (PNBs). This review investigated the clinical and economic impact of PNBs on geriatric patients undergoing hip fracture surgery. A systematic review identified relevant research on PNB use in this population, searching databases like PubMed, Cochrane, and others for studies published before September 2023. The findings revealed several potential benefits associated with PNBs, including targeted pain control, decreased opioid dependence, and facilitated earlier mobilization. Notably, the analysis highlighted a dual impact, with PNBs demonstrating potential clinical advantages like shorter hospital stays and fewer complications alongside their costs. However, the evidence of their influence on healthcare costs remains inconclusive. Despite the uncertainty surrounding cost-effectiveness, the overall trend suggests positive clinical outcomes associated with PNBs, including improved recovery and reduced opioid reliance. These potential benefits could translate to a positive impact on healthcare resource utilization. In conclusion, PNBs show promise for improved clinical outcomes and potentially reducing healthcare resource utilization. To solidify cost-effectiveness, future studies should pinpoint economic benefits and refine PNBs use. A more thorough analysis is needed to confirm these financial advantages.

Natural disasters have become increasingly common and intense in recent years due to human activity and climate change, with significant consequences. Women and children are especially vulnerable during and after natural disasters, with long-term physical, emotional, and psychological impacts. While climate change research has been ongoing for a long time, climate change has socio-economic repercussions and has impacted the ecosystem. While individual case studies are important, additional comparative studies that analyse the similarities and differences in natural disaster consequences across different locations and cultures are needed. The paper looks at how gendered the effects of natural disasters are, with a focus on the disproportionate burden on women and children. Due to climate change, several natural hazards will change in frequency, severity, timing, and location making the children and women in poor and developing countries more vulnerable and at risk.

This study attempted to assess Valencia City Bukidnon, Jail Management and Penology Rehabilitation Programs for the fiscal year 2022-2023. Specifically, it aimed to describe the respondents profile in terms of age, sex, and years of stay in the jail institution; determine the respondents assessment level of Valencia City Bukidnon, Jail Management and Penology Rehabilitation Program in terms of Educational Program, Skill Training/Enhancement Program, Livelihood Program, Cultural and Sports Program, Interfaith Program, and Para Legal Program; and find out whether significant relationship exists between the respondents assessment level of the rehabilitation program and the profile of the respondents. The respondents were 193 detained in the Valencia City Bukidnon Jail Management and Penology. Quantitative descriptive method was utilized to address the problem. The findings highlight a stark gender disparity among inmates, with males comprising the majority. Programs targeting the specific needs of male offenders, particularly those aged 26-30, are emphasized. The Paralegal Program stands out as highly effective, providing crucial legal assistance to detainees. However, disparities in program assessment based on gender suggest potential biases in program delivery. Ensuring equitable and unbiased program implementation is crucial to addressing the diverse needs of all individuals deprived of liberty.

This phenomenological study aims to delve into the experiences, opinions, and perspectives of the school heads in the Banaybanay district of the Department of Education, Division of Davao Oriental. In addressing the learning gaps during in-person classes, this qualitative study used a phenomenological approach to collect and analyze data. In order to close learning gaps, particularly after two years of distance learning, school heads experiences and perspectives on the gaps in learning during in-person sessions are crucial. These viewpoints focused on closing the gaps, especially in reading and numeracy abilities. A sample of fourteen (14) participants was selected using a purposive sampling technique. Seven participants underwent focus group discussions, and the other seven underwent in-depth interviews, highlighting the experiences, coping mechanisms, and insights of the school heads in the research locale. As to the participants experiences, two major themes emerged: encountered problems with unpreparedness for the in-person classes; and b) observed students with reading difficulties. With regard to their responses to coping mechanisms, six major themes emerged: implemented reading intervention activities, established open communication, extended technical assistance to teachers, collaboration with stakeholders, provided additional learning and reading materials, and implemented a literacy and numeracy program. Lastly, their insights revealed five major themes: reduction of teacher workloads, provision of learning materials, strengthened programs in teaching fundamental skills, intensification of feedback mechanisms, and assignment of remediation teachers. The study revealed that the school heads in Banaybanay district collaborated with stakeholders, including teachers and parents to solve difficulties and prepare students for academic success during in-person classes. It emphasizes open communication, providing reading materials, technical assistance, and implementing numeracy and literacy programs, which were very significant to the participants. Public elementary school heads as well as the Department of Education implementers need to intensify feedbacking to assess the real situation of students in the field so that they can perform their duty as leaders in addressing gaps based on the situation in the field.

In addressing the learning gaps during in-person classes, this qualitative study used a phenomenological approach to collect and analyze data. In order to close learning gaps, particularly after two years of distance learning, school heads experiences and perspectives on the gaps in learning during in-person sessions are crucial.
