Project Management Methodologies of International Development Agencies and the Concept of Sustainable Project Management

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This research explores to what extent the ideas and notions of sustainable project management (SPM) are reflected in the project management methodologies of three selected international development agencies. A conceptual framework is developed, and a deductive content analysis is performed.

The Ethical Dimensions of Climate Change: Rethinking Justice, Responsibility, and Collective Obligation

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Climate change is one of the most profound ethical and existential challenges of the 21st century. Beyond its physical, economic, and environmental consequences, it raises fundamental moral questions about justice, equity, responsibility, and the right to a livable planet.

Perspectives on Climate Change in Education for Sustainability: Linking Concepts and Skills for a Practical Ecological Transition

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT ‘Hard’ natural sciences have extensively been used to provide evidence that climate change is happening and climate action is needed. If the contribution of our economic activities to disturbing our climate systems is now largely accepted, the way in which we design and operationalise ‘climate action’—how we transition to more sustainable ...

The Role of Global Political Economy in Community‐Based Adaptation to Climate Change—Practitioners' Experience and Opinions

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Community‐based adaptation scholars and practitioners acknowledge that power asymmetries pose significant barriers to project impact. Nevertheless, there is little research on the role of the global political economy as the root cause of vulnerability.

Green Transition, Extractive Continuities: Lithium Mining and the Environmental Contradictions of Sustainability

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Global decarbonization has positioned lithium as a strategic mineral for electric vehicles, battery storage, and low‐carbon development. Yet its extraction raises serious environmental, political, and justice concerns that complicate dominant narratives of clean energy progress.

Liquid Crystal Polymers as Intrinsically Magnetic and Programmable Soft Materials for Microrobotics

Small, EarlyView.
Liquid crystal polymers (LCPs) are proposed as intrinsically magnetic, programmable, soft materials for microrobotics. Magnetic torque‐driven manipulation of LCP microobjects is achieved and characterized in terms of the step‐out frequency, reaching ∼0.6 Hz in a ∼250 mT magnetic field. The orientation of LCP microobjects in the magnetic field and their

Advanced Hybrid Techniques for Cyberattack Detection and Defense in IoT Networks

SECURITY AND PRIVACY, Volume 8, Issue 2, March/April 2025.
ABSTRACT The Internet of Things (IoT) represents a vast network of devices connected to the Internet, making it easier for users to connect to modern technology. However, the complexity of these networks and the large volume of data pose significant challenges in protecting them from persistent cyberattacks, such as distributed denial‐of‐service (DDoS)

Systems Thinking for T‐Shaped Sustainability Education: A Viable Systems Approach (vSa)

Systems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sustainability represents a complex and evolving paradigm calling for competences necessary for a deep understanding of the interdependencies among human, environmental, economic, and cultural dimensions. Along with a review of the literature and an analysis of official guidelines from leading international institutions, this study assesses ...

Comparing leukocyte‐ and thrombocyte‐rich fibrin and autologous grafts for the treatment of experimentally induced wounds in the tarsometatarsus of chickens

Veterinary Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Managing open wounds in birds is challenging. This study compared leukocyte‐ and thrombocyte‐rich fibrin (L‐TRF) and autologous grafts for treating wounds in the tarsometatarsus of chickens. Methods Full‐thickness wounds were experimentally induced in the tarsometatarsus of 23 healthy adult chickens.

Nonthermal plasma approaches for combating implant‐associated infections: A compendious review

VIEW, EarlyView.
Implant‐associated infections pose serious clinical challenges. Non‐thermal plasma (NTP) modifications overcome this bottleneck in distinct ways relative to traditional sterilization methods. Gas‐phase plasmas generate highly energetic species, UV radiation and reactive oxygen/nitrogen species (RONS), which alter the implant surface properties.
