Proceedings of the 10th Focus Conference (TFC 2023)
Author: Manyane Makua
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 238476134X
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 540
Book Description
This is an open access book. The 2023 Focus Conference will focus on Goal Four (Quality Education) of the United Nations (UN) Sustainable Development Goals (SGD). Goal Four is seized with providing “equal access for all women and men to affordable and quality technical, vocational and tertiary education including university.” Quality education, in this context, means the ability to function, provide and derive value in society. The theme of the conference is therefore coined as “The Role of Higher Education in the Attainment of Sustainable Quality Education.” Through this theme, the conference will provide a space for participants to share practical knowledge, experiences, and possible solutions to the myriad of problems that confront the higher education sector. Universities are often thought of as ivory towers far removed from the realities that confront global societies. To compound this, higher education is increasingly being questioned for its relevance in providing practical and innovative solutions to existing societal problems. Such questions often navigate around the relevance of the academic programmes being offered, curriculum, the capacity of staff, employability of graduates, and generally the ability of these institutions to understand why they exist. Indeed, higher education’s role in creating a sustainable future will presumably take on greater importance as the world continues to become increasingly globalised and interdependent.

Minority and Indigenous Trends 2023 – Focus on water
Author: Nicolas Salazar Sutil
Publisher: Minority Rights Group
ISBN: 1915898005
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 280
Book Description
The past year saw some of the worst cyclones recorded in the Pacific, some of the costliest and worst ever recorded floods in Australia, Pakistan and across the African continent, coupled with major droughts affecting parts of Central, East and Southern Africa, the Americas, Central Asia, Europe and the Middle East, prompting many experts to declare that the planet’s water cycle has been severely disrupted due to human activity. For members of minorities, indigenous peoples and other marginalized groups, the water crisis is often an existential threat affecting numerous rights such as to life, health, self-governance, sanitation and culture. Water justice cannot be attained unless the communities that protect water systems from the threats of extractivism, overuse and pollution are prioritized in the international arena. Community-led solutions, drawing on traditional knowledge systems, are the key to solving the water crisis. This year’s Minority and Indigenous Trends report brings together three thematic chapters and over thirty case studies written by members of communities on the frontline of the water crisis, as well as leading water activists, researchers and policymakers. These first-hand accounts cover a range of issues, from conflict in water-stressed parts of the world to cultural forms of water conservancy and peaceful governance. The ways in which water issues affect the lives of minority and indigenous women, children and people with disabilities, to mention a few intersectional aspects of the water crisis, are highlighted in this volume. Resolving the difficulties they face is an inextricable aspect of planetary water justice.

The Link Between Metabolic Syndrome and Chronic Kidney Disease: Focus on Diagnosis and Therapeutics, volume II
Author: Ningning Hou
Publisher: Frontiers Media SA
ISBN: 2832550665
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 160
Book Description
Metabolic syndrome (MetS), including obesity, hyperglycemia, hyperlipidemia, hyperinsulinemia, are associated with disturbed energy homeostasis, limited whole-body insulin sensitivity, and an increased risk of cardiovascular and chronic kidney disease (CKD). The prospective and cross-sectional studies have shown a close association between the MetS and CKD. Chronic inflammation and vascular dysfunction are two key MetS-related etiological factors for renal injury. CKD is characterized by mitochondrial dysfunction, oxidative stress, and aberrant autophagy at the cellular level, which is also typical of metabolic disorders. However, the relationship and mechanism between metabolic disease and chronic kidney dysfunction still call for deeper understanding. This Research Topic aims to gather both Reviews and Original Research articles focused on discovering the truth behind the phenomenon that glucose and lipid metabolic disorders and obesity have important public health implications in terms of individuals with CKD. The studies covering new insights to determine the link between MetS-related immunity response and renal dysfunction will also be considered.

European Partnership on the Assessment of Risks from Chemicals (PARC): Focus on New Approach Methodologies (NAMs) in Risk Assessment
Author: Terje Svingen
Publisher: Frontiers Media SA
ISBN: 2832553389
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 125
Book Description
The European Partnership on the Assessment of Risks from Chemicals (PARC) project was launched in 2022. The overarching aim of this partnership is to enhance our knowledge about chemical substances to better safeguard human health and the environment against harmful effects. The project will run for seven years under Horizon Europe. PARC is subdivided into several work packages (WPs). WP5 is focused on hazard assessment for human and environmental health and includes more than 80 partners across Europe. WP5 aims to fill data gaps for specified chemical substances of concern (e.g, bisphenol alternatives) and to develop or improve new approach methodologies (NAMs) for chemical hazard assessment. This is in order to progress towards a risk assessment paradigm relying less on animal toxicity data, both with respect to human health and environmental safety. As the PARC initiative will evolve over time with respect to both projects and activities, presenting early initiatives will foster an increased awareness of ongoing activities and potential incorporation of new activities going forward.

Book Description
Population aging is a consistent global demographic trend. The growth in both the size and proportion of older adults has threatened the sustainability of health systems in meeting healthcare needs of the population. Countries in the Asia-Pacific Region may face even more complex health system challenges due to the diversity in culture, management and leadership styles, composition of health service provision, investment in research infrastructure and innovation adaptation, data availability, and gaps in information technology.
