Between Emancipation and Domination? A Critical Analysis of Empowerment in a Women‐Only Development Program in Costa Rica's Coffee Sector

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Female empowerment and its use in development contexts has histories in coloniality. Gender programs typically imply an individualistic, depoliticized concept. This article examines whether such initiatives can be supportive for empowerment. We apply an embedded qualitative case study of Bean Voyage's program to support female coffee producers

Design and Control of a Dual‐Coil Magnetic Guidewire for Smooth and Adaptive Curvature Steering in Vascular Intervention

SmartBot, EarlyView.
Magnetic guidewires enable remote navigation in tortuous vasculature but often suffer from limited controllability, inefficient force transmission, and safety risks at bifurcations. This work presents a dual‐coil magnetic guidewire actuated by an external permanent magnet, enabling two steering modes with smooth curvature control and improved axial ...

Heating up parasitoid–host interactions: High temperature increased mortality of late‐instar braconid larvae and reduced ladybird recovery rate

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract With ongoing climate change, temperature‐dependent outcomes of host–parasitoid interactions can affect ecosystem functioning and key ecosystem services such as biological control. However, most studies addressing the impacts of temperature on host–parasitoid systems are
