Reassessing the Building Construction System and Quality Issues in Relocated Settlement after the Gorkha Earthquake
Authors: Adhikari Rabindra
Published: January 2023

This paper assesses the reconstruction process in a mountainous village that typically represents the dominant location of damage by the Gorkha earthquake of April 25, 2015. The pre- and post-earthquake scenarios are presented comparatively. The structural system is found to be mostly compliant as per the new guidelines set by the government; however, deficiencies in terms of construction system and structural characteristics were significant in the reconstruction. Thus, the reconstructed buildings with several deficiencies could be still seismically vulnerable. It is recommended that the performance of reconstructed buildings after the Gorkha earthquake shall be re-assessed for necessary risk management planning. Also, this study provides insight into the construction practice in after earthquake reconstruction and areas of poor workmanships in such work.

Authors: Acharya Kabi Raj , Vyas Surendra Kumar
Published: January 2023

This study aims to compare the financial strength of joint venture and domestic commercial banks in Nepal using data from mid-July 2011/2012 to mid-July 2019/2020. The financial strength analysis is based on the CAMELS (capital adequacy, asset quality, management quality, earning performance, liquidity, and sensitivity to market risk) framework. A descriptive research design has been used. This paper finds that Nepalese joint venture banks are financially sound with higher asset quality, management quality, earning performance, and liquidity than Nepalese domestic banks. Nepalese joint venture banks can cash in on higher IT infrastructure or better investment culture from its foreign collaboration and thus perform better compared to domestic commercial banks.
A Portrayal of Farmers in Nepali Broadsheet Dailies
Authors: Dhakal Mod
Published: January 2023

This article attempts to explore the portrayal of Nepali farmers in the Nepali dailies. It explores the situation of the agricultural landscape in Nepal and the picture of Nepali peasants painted by the Nepali dailies.
The revelation of the portrayal of farmers in Nepali broadsheet dailies is based on a thorough analysis of contents for the period of 16 days that appeared in three major 'national' broadsheet dailies published from the Capital city Kathmandu. The analysis of the news and opinion articles on agriculture and farmers reveals that merely 2.12 % of the total news was on agriculture while only 10 items were particularly about farmers and just seven portrayed farmers in a positive light. Compared against the 66 per cent of the population engaged in agriculture and its 28.2 % contribution to the economy, it's an injustice to farming and farmers.
The study shows that the number of items that showed concerns to the farmers' plight are so nascent that they would barely make any impact. The picture of agriculture as painted by the major broadsheets is gloomy, arduous, complex, and less profitable. The social attitude on farmers carried by the media is they are poor, sad, and neglected human beings living in a hope that someday they will be able to get the inputs with government subsidy. Nepali newspapers have solidified the image of farmers as dirty and living in poor houses waiting for some external support or intervention to rescue them, like the studies found in other societies.

{The present research article is related to the study of marginalized communities depicted in the story 'Kadamlal Atmako Geet' written by Rishi Raj Baral. In the story, the view of the upper and elite of the society towards the lower class and the context of this class being forced to reach a marginalized position has been highlighted. They are forced to work on the fields of others due to poor financial conditions. Due to the economic condition of the lower class, the villains have not been able to eat well to live a miserable life. The story highlights that the marginalized classes have been sidelined as the dominant class has built a social structure that suits them in the construction of the social structure. In the story, there is a conflict between the dominant class and the marginalized class. Due to this conflict, the fact that the marginalized class had to become disabled from torture and eventually died unknowingly when the marginalized raised their voice of resistance has become tragic and tragic. In this story, the then social system has presented in a tragic waythe feudal social system and the exploitation, repression, injustice and atrocities underits guise by focusing on Kadamlal, which was originally known as Hali (Kamaiya). This story has also been analyzed from the angle of class marginality. Kadamlal Taatma's songstory depicts the condition of the marginalized. The main objective of the present study isto analyzes the story of 'Kadamlalatma's Song' on the basis of class marginality.}

{Damodar Pudasaini 'Kishore' is a poet who is trying to awaken social consciousness by presenting the issues of social life as well as the concerns of marginal people through poetry. In the poetry the City without a City, he has taken the social context from the Terai region of Nepal. He has depicted the sufferings of the people of the Terai region and the growing deformities in that region. In the course of raising other social issues, he has also mixed environmental pollution as a subject of poetry, and he has given a resistance response to the reality that Nepal's Terai region is forced to accept poisoned air and water due to a lack of environmental awareness. Submitting the context that human behavior is gradually deteriorating as the number of selfishness increases, he claimed that the state's responsibility could not be strengthened and environmental awareness and ethics were replaced by human interest. The poet believes that the expansion of capitalist economic culture is the main reason for environmental exploitation. Based on the theoretical ground of Eco's criticism, the life of the Terai region of Nepal is depicted in his poetry the City without a City and the toxic discourse in that life has been observed. Due to the lack of environmental ethics, our reference to environmental protection has become confused, so this study has concluded that the awakening of social awareness towards it is the need of the day.}

Published: January 2023

Gastrointestinal (GI) This study was conducted in agricultural field, forests, riparian and wetland habitats, and human habitats of six sampling sites in Palpa, Nepal, from May 2016 and April 2020. The purpose of the study was to document and measure the richness, abundance, and diversity of the reptile in this district. Data was collected randomly in these habitats of this district using quadrat, visual encounter, and opportunistic survey methods. For 100 quadrates for each site seasonally, 20 quadrats were placed in each habitat along 5 transects. In total, 554 individual species belonging to 9 families, 26 genera, and 34 species were recorded. The richness of reptiles species was high in the human habitat and forest (S= 25) but lower in wetland (S=6). The abundance was more in human habitat than in other habitats. Shannon diversity index (Hˈ) of reptile was 2.51 and 0.99 in forest and wetland respectively. Similarly, the Simpson index in reptiles (λ) was high in forest (0.87) and low in wetland (0.57). Pielou evenness (J) of individuals among the species was 0.29 in forest and 0.54 in wetland. The values indicate that the diversity of reptiles was higher in forest as compared to the wetland. This study aids the resources for additional research.
Generic and species richness of ant fauna in different provinces of Nepal (Hymenoptera: Formicidae)
Authors: Subedi Indra Prasad
Published: January 2023

Nepal, a part of the Himalayan biodiversity hotspot, has a high diversity of habitat and species. Its myrmecofaunal diversity and distribution, however, is little understood. Here, I summarize the provincial distribution of all named species of ants for the seven provinces of Nepal through a literature review and examination of materials available at museum and private collections. The distribution of Nepalese ants in each province reveals that Bagmati province has the highest known generic and species richness with 37 genera and 93 species, followed by Gandaki (32, 68), Province 1 (27, 55), Sudurpashchim (15, 15), Lumbini (12, 13), Madhesh (9, 11), and Karnali (5, 5). The four of the seven provinces, Sudurpashchim, Karnali, Lumbini, and Madhesh have been significantly under sampled in the country in terms of documented species richness. Although the figures cannot accurately represent the real species richness of each province, I hope that by highlighting the research gaps, it will encourage further investigation.
DESIGN AND SIMULATION OF HIGH GAIN SEPIC DC–DC CONVERTER
Authors: A. Mejbel Ihsan , K. Hassan Turki
Published: January 2023

This paper proposes a new model of the converter, a single-ended primary-inductor converter (SEPIC) type with a high gain voltage for clean energy sources. The suggested model is established by combining the traditional SEPIC DC-DC converter with two different circuits. The first circuit is a split-inductor circuit that is made of three diodes and two inductors, while the second circuit consists of two capacitors and two diodes. The suggested SEPIC DC-DC converter achieves a high voltage gain of 7.5 times the supply voltage when the duty cycle value is kept at 0.5 with only a unique controlled switch. The gain of the proposed converter is greatly increased while the ripple of output voltage and the input current is decreased for higher values of the duty cycle. In addition, the decreased value of the input current ripple results in limited switching stress. The suggested converter is analyzed in detail for continuous conduction mode (CCM). A MATLAB/ Simulink program is used to confirm the analysis of the suggested converter.
COMPARISON OF TIME AND TIME-FREQUENCY DOMAINS IMPULSIVE NOISE MITIGATION TECHNIQUES FOR POWER LINE COMMUNICATIONS
Authors: Mohammed Asaad , K. Mahmood Al-Azawi Maher
Published: January 2023

Impulsive noise is one of the foremost situations in power line communications that degrades the performance of orthogonal frequency division multiplexing used for the power line communications channel. In this paper, a channel version of the broadband power line communications is assumed when evaluating the bit error rate performance. Three impulsive noise environments are assumed, namely heavily, moderately, and weakly disturbed. The well-known time domain mitigation techniques are tested first. These are clipping, blanking, and mixing clipping with blanking. The results of Matlab simulations show that these time-domain mitigation techniques don't significantly improve the bit error rate performance. A hybrid domain of time and frequency mitigation techniques are used to enhance the bit error rate performance. The Matlab simulation results show that this hybrid domain of time and frequency approach outperforms time domain nonlinearities and can largely improve the bit error rate performance. Signal-to-noise ratio gains of about 8 dB, 10 dB, and 10 dB are obtained for heavily, moderately, and weakly disturbed channels, respectively, using the domains of time and frequency mitigation technique at a bit error rate of when compared to the blanking time domain technique.
THE INFLUENCE OF INFILL DENSITY AND SPEED OF PRINTING ON THE TENSILE PROPERTIES OF THE THREE DIMENSION PRINTING POLYLACTIC ACID PARTS
Authors: Kasim Mehdi Muhammed , Owed Bashar
Published: January 2023

The primary aim of this research was to determine the effect of infill-density (ID), and the speed of print on the microstructure and tensile behavior of 3D printed elements by conducting the tensile test. The tensile behavior of 3D-printed elements is essentially dependent on the ID that is stratified through printing. Here specimens were printed from PLA and divided into three groups the first group printed at speed of 40mm/s and (50,75,100) % infill ratio. And the second group printed at speed of 50 mm/s and (50,75,100) % infill ratio. The third group printed at speed of 60mm/min and (50,75, 100) % infill ratio. The specimens were printed in accordance with ASTM D638 of the tensile test. From all specimens, the best result was obtained in first group specimen 3 at an infill ratio of 100% and speed of print of 40mm/min. from the microstructure examination, the brittle fracture features (smooth region) and ductile fracture characteristics (deformed patterns) were observed in the infill ratio (ID) percentage.
SHEAR TRANSFER BEHAVIOR OF FIBROUS CONCRETE
Authors: Jwad Eman , Waryosh Waleed Awad
Published: January 2023

Fibrous concrete's shear strength behavior is important in structural design. Brackets, corbels, and ledger beams are examples of concrete members that might collapse in shear. Such a failure might be brittle and sudden. Fibers improve concrete's behavior by increasing residual shear transfer and reducing crack development and extension. In an experimental study, nine push-off specimens were divided into three groups and examined as part of the experiment. Conventional concrete, conventional concrete with 1% glass fiber, and conventional concrete with 1% steel fiber were the groups. There were three push-off specimens with various shear reinforcement ratios in each of the groups that were examined (0.0, 0.45, and 0.68%). The specimens utilized had dimensions of 500mm x 250mm x 125mm. The vertical slip and horizontal separation at the shear plane were measured using two-stroke linear variable displacement transducers (LVDT). The effect of fiber type and the ratio of transverse reinforcement across the shear plane were the parameters evaluated. The presence of fibers enhances final shear strength, which is more obvious in specimens without stirrups in the shear plane. Where the addition of 1% of glass fiber to normal strength concrete increased ultimate shear strength by 32.26%, 12.38%, and 12.5%, while adding 1% of steel fiber to normal strength concrete increased ultimate shear strength by up to 53.22%, 19%, and 25%, respectively, for the specimens without stirrups, two stirrups, and three stirrups. The fibrous specimens were stiffer and ductile failure was seen. Steel fibers improved overall concrete shear behavior better than glass fibers.
Do The Companies Owe Corporate Social Responsibility towards Institutions of Higher Education?
Authors: Qamar Parveen
Published: January 2023

With an emphasis on distribution of wealth among the stakeholders and considering environmental sustainability, the companies are required to manage business processes in such a way to provide a positive impact on the society. These companies through their business earn a major profit by operating in the society and various stakeholders are involved and affected from their process directly or indirectly, therefore the companies are expected to spend a part of their profit for the benefits of their stakeholders.  Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is a concept where big companies consciously combine their economic profit with social well-being and environmental sustainability. India has made legislation in the form of section 135 of Companies Act, 2013 for this purpose. According to this Act, education, gender equality, persons with disability (PwD) and environmental sustainability are some of the areas where the companies can use Corporate Social Responsibility funds through their policies.

In response to the law, a large number of companies are performing well and undertaking a large number of projects in areas mentioned under the Schedule VII of the Companies Act, 2013. But the data shows a lot still needs to be done as these large numbers of Companies are spending on education at school level and skill development but higher educational institutions (HEIs) are far away from reaping the benefits of CSR funds. Companies and corporate houses do not consider much about the infrastructural development in HEIs for environmental sustainability, and projects leading to women development.

Government is over burdened in looking and sponsoring even the small projects. CSR funding can share this responsibility thereby accelerating the process of development in the institutions.

Published: January 2023

Pemilihan umum (pemilu) sebagai indikator kehidupan negara demokratis memungkinkan perubahan tatanan kehidupan berbangsa dan bernegara. Partisipasi pemilih dalam setiap pemilu hendaknya semakin meningkat, namun dalam realitanya di era reformasi partisipasi politik belum seperti yang diharapkan yaitu jauh lebih rendah dibandingkan pada masa pemerintahan Orde Baru. Tidak ada mobilisasi dan represi pada masyarakat dalam setiap perhelatan pemilu bisa menjadi salah satu penyebab pemilu berjalan kurang lancar. Mengingat pemilu demikian strategis untuk rotasi kekuasaan maka perlu upaya meningkatkan partisipasi pemilih pada setiap pemilu. Media sosial menjadi alternatif lembaga pemerintah untuk mensosialisasikan pemilu. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menemukan konten pesan pemilu dalam perspektif pemilih pemula serta sejauh mana pemilih pemula mengunjungi media sosial yang dimiliki KPU. Metode penelitian menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan teknik pengumpulan data Focus Group Discussion (FGD). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan konten pesan pemilu masih bersifat teknis sehingga pemilih pemula belum sepenuhnya tertarik mengunjungi media sosial milik KPU dari level pusat, provinsi dan daerah. Salah satu alasannya kurang memberikan informasi yang dibutuhkan pemilih pemula. Penelitian ini memberikan kontribusi bagi lembaga pemerintah agar mengemas konten pesan pemilu di media sosial KPU agar lebih menarik bagi pemilih pemula.

Meningkatnya debit air pada daerah aliran sungai (DAS) disebabkan oleh intensitas curah hujan yang tinggi. Salah satu cara untuk menanggulangi masalah tersebut adalah membuat saluran drainase atau saluran pembuang yang dapat mengalirkannya ke sungai. Menurunnya fungsi kapasitas tampungan air dan kurang optimalnya sistem jaringan drainase di Kota Kandangan menyebabkan terjadinya permasalahan genangan dan banjir. Langkah awal untuk pemulihan dan penanganan, peneliti melakukan kajian evaluasi kapasitas tampung saluran terhadap debit banjir rancangan untuk perencanaan sistem jaringan drainase Kota Kandangan. Penelitian ini dilakukan dengan cara menganalisis kapasitas tampung saluran eksisting untuk melakukan evaluasi atau penataan sistem jaringan drainase pada saluran primer yang tidak mampu menampung debit banjir rancangan. Perhitungan debit banjir rancangan dengan menggunakan metode rasional pada kala ulang Q5th dan Q10th. Berdasarkan hasil analisis kapasitas tampung pada sepuluh ruas saluran drainase, terdapat 3 saluran drainase yang mampu menampung debit banjir rancangan dengan kala ulang Q5th. Sedangkan, dengan menggunakan kala ulang Q10th, hanya terdapat 2 saluran yang mampu menampung debit banjir rancangan. Untuk hasil evaluasi sistem jaringan drainase di Kota Kandangan, terdapat penambahan outlet saluran pembuang dan penambahan luas dimensi rata-rata 1,49% pada kala ulang Q5th dan 1,66% pada kala ulang Q10th.

Published: January 2023

Secara geologi Indonesia terletak di antara 4 lempeng utama dunia yang aktif, sehingga merupakan wilayah yang rawan terjadi gempa bumi. Akibat pengaruh gempa ini maka diperlukan perencanaan struktur yang lebih komplek, yaitu dengan menggunakan analisis dinamis. Gempa tidak dapat diprediksi waktu dan tempat kejadiannya. Semakin penting suatu bangunan maka semakin lama bangunan itu harus bertahan, sehingga semakin besar gaya gempa yang harus diperhitungkan terhadap bangunan tersebut. Penelitian ini membandingkan nilai drift ratio, nilai displacement serta pola goyangan terhadap variasi model struktur yang terjadi akibat beban gempa respons spektrum.

Proyek adalah sebuah kegiatan yang bersifat sementara yang telah ditetapkan awal pekerjaannya dan waktu selesainya. Proyek dalam studi ini start pekerjaannya mengalami keterlambatan selama 12 hari, sehingga dengan menggunakan kurva S yang telah dibuat oleh kontraktor sebelumnya, dapat dipastikan selesainya proyek tersebut akan mengalami keterlambatan. Oleh karena itu perlu dilakukan penjadwalan ulang dalam proyek tersebut dengan berbagai metode kerja supaya selesai pada batas waktu yang telah ditentukan. Dalam penelitian ini peneliti menggunakan jam kerja sistem shift untuk dapat mempercepat durasi waktu proyek yang akan dianalisis dengan membandingkan metode Precedence Diagram Method (PDM), Fast-Track dan Critical Path Method untuk mendapatkan pekerjaan yang berada pada jalur kritis dan dilakukan percepatan. Setelah durasi percepatan diketahui, maka akan di analisa mengenai dampak durasi waktu terhadap biaya proyek. Dari hasil Analisa, diperoleh hasil pada durasi normal selama180 hari mengalami keterlambatan selama 12 hari sehingga pada kondisi normal dibutuhkan tambahan biaya untuk membayar denda sebesar Rp 210.714.001,34. Setelah percepatan durasi waktu dari 180 hari menjadi 152 hari untuk metode CPM dan PDM, sedangkan untuk metode fast track menjadi 147 hari. Dampak percepatan waktu terhadap biaya mengalami peningkatan sebesar 0,55% yakni Rp 96.612.415,31 untuk metode PDM dan CPM, sedangkan metode fast track biaya mengalami peningkatan sebesar 0,53% yakni Rp 92.695.605,71 dari durasi normal.

Setiap pekerjaan teknik sipil tidak lepas dengan aspek yang paling penting yaitu tanah. Sejumlah masalah yang berkaitan dengan bangunan teknik sipil yang sering dijumpai di lapangan adalah sifat-sifat teknis tanah yang buruk ditandai dengan kadar air tanah yang tinggi, komprebilitas yang besar dan daya dukung yang rendah. Sebagian dari jenis tanah yang memiliki sifat buruk tersebut adalah tanah yang mudah mengalami kembang susut besar. Beberapa jenis tanah yang memiliki potensi kembang susut besar adalah tanah yang dapat mengalami perubahan volume secara signifikan seiring dengan perubahan kadar airnya. Tanah jenis ini merupakan tanah lempung yang banyak mengandung mineral-mineral dengan potensi kembang (swelling potential) tinggi atau disebut dengan tanah lempung ekspansif. Dari hasil penelitian pada tanah lempung ekspansif di lokasi Kabupaten Jombang (Jawa Timur) menunjukan bahwa potensi kembang bebas tanah lempung ekspansif yang sangat bervariasi yakni dipengaruhi oleh jenis atau klasifikasi tanah ekspansif, unsur kimia dan mineral, kadar air aktivitas dan indenx plastisitas. Hasil Pengujian limbah industri kerajinan marmer sebagai bahan stabilisasi tanah lempung ekspansif menunjukan bahwa hasil sifat fisis dengan komposisi penambahan bahan stabilisasi 5%, 10%, 15% 20% mengalami penurunan kadar air cukup konsisten.

A black-hole solution in four time and four space dimensions ((4+4)-dimensions) is developed. It is emphasized that such a solution establishes a duality relation between the (1+3) and the (3+1) black-holes, which are part of the (4+4)-world. Moreover, it is found that a cosmological constant of the (1+3)-world is dual to the cosmological constant in the (3+1)-world.

TM (TM = Sn, Al) doped and co-doped CdO thin films were deposited by spray pyrolysis technique on glass substrate at temperature 350 ˚C. The effect of TM doping and co-doping on the structural, morphological, optical, and electrical properties of CdO thin films was investigated. The obtained films are crystallized in the cubic structure and oriented along the preferential (111) crystallographic plane. The average optical transmittance reaches 79% in the visible range for Sn doped CdO films and 74% for Al-Sn co-doped films. The gap values of the obtained samples are between 2.29 and 2.49 eV. All the deposited films exhibit n-type conductivity with a low electrical resistivity of 7.85.10-4 Ω.cm obtained for Al doped CdO films.

Many of the known examples of half-metallic ferromagnets HMF are oxides, sulfides, or Heusler alloys have attracted some interest for their potential use in spintronics. In order to achieve such understanding we have performed an ab-initio calculations with spin polarization using plane-wave pseudo potential technique based on the density-functional theory (DFT), the exchange-correlation potential was treated with the generalized gradient approximation (PBE-GGA), whereas for the treatment of on-site electron-electron correlations the PBE-GGA+U approximation (where U is the Hubbard Coulomb energy term) are applied for the calculation of the structural, electronic, elastic and magnetic properties of Pd2PrX (X=Cl, F). The results showed that for Pd2PrCl and Pd2PrF, Hg2CuTi-type structure is energetically more stable than Cu2MnAl-type structure at the equilibrium volume. Electronically, Pd2PrCl and Pd2PrF exhibit half-metallicity with small band gaps of 0.06 and 0.25eV respectively with GGA-PBE+U in the spin-down channels whereas spin-up channels are conducting. The calculated total magnetic moment of 2.00 μB per formula unit is very close to integer value and agree well with the Slater-Pauling rules ( Mtot=34-Ztot), where the magnetic moment is basically carried by Pr atoms. However, the elastic properties show that Pd2PrX (X=Cl, F) compounds are ductile and anisotropic according to the analysis of B/G and Cauchy’s pressure. The Thermodynamic properties were also analyzed using the quasi-harmonic Debye model. Both the compounds are found structurally stable.

Within the framework of the effective mass approximation, a detailed investigation of the effects of an external (DC) electric field on the electronic and optical properties of a multi-layer cylindrical ZnS/ZnO quantum dot with fixed height and radius respectively at 10 nm and 5 nm, while modeling the ZnO wells using a parabolic potential. Numerical results were carried out using the Finite Difference Method (FDM), in order to compute the confinement energies, probability densities, expectation value for the potential describing a (DC) electric field for both the ground state and first excited state, and finishes by deducing the transition energy, transition dipole moment (TDM) and the absorption coefficient (AC) while taking into account multiple layer thickness configurations as we vary the electric field strength $F$. The results shows that varying the (DC) electric field strength does has an noticeable impact on the electronic and optical properties while all other inputs are kept unchanged.

Published: January 2023

Prison is one of the main and important agencies which involves in the criminal justice process. Offenders who are sentenced to imprisonment are sent to this institution for rehabilitation. The main objective of the prison institution is to rehabilitate prisoners thereby helping them to understand what was wrong with their behaviors and helping them to become productive citizens in the future after releasing from prison. In order to achieve this task, the prison system should take necessary steps to conduct an effective rehabilitation process during the imprisonment period. The study was based on to study the impact of the prisoners population on the prison rehabilitation process in Sri Lanka.. The objective of the research was to identify basic rehabilitation problems caused by the prisoners population. The research was conducted in Mahara prison in the Gampaha District of the western province. The study sample included 50 prisoners out of 1500 prisoners of Mahara prison. The sample was selected using systematic sampling which is one of the probability sampling methods used. And also prison officers were selected under the same sample. The data obtained from the research have been extensively analyzed quantitatively and qualitatively. The finding reveals that the physical and human resources in prisons are limited compared to the increasing number of prisoners, referrals from prisoners to vocational sectors have decreased, and 66% of prisoners have health problems. Meanwhile, there are sexually transmitted diseases and rashes. Furthermore, remanded prisoners have increased due to delays in cases. To increase the effectiveness of the rehabilitation process, the prisoner population must be controlled, for that, it is important to have an interconnection between the court and prison

A meeting of veterinary school faculty and partners, many associated with shelter medicine and/or community medicine programming, was convened at the 2019 Shelter Medicine Veterinary Educators Conference in Pullman, WA, to discuss challenges with shelter medicine program sustainability and defining the future. The discussion was facilitated by an outside consultant and is summarized in this manuscript. The goal of the meeting was to identify challenges and issues concerning the needs and goals for shelter medicine curricula to have long-term success in academic training. Four themes were identified in the transcripts including external pressure from leadership and other stakeholders, funder expectations, time horizons, and perceptions of shelters and shelter veterinarians. Addressing these challenges will be critical to ensuring stability in academic training in shelter medicine, a critical tool for both learning outcomes for general graduates and specific for veterinarians pursuing shelter medicine as a career.
