Authors: Rifimaro Saffanah , Budi Setyo , Lailiyah Wiharyanti Nur
Published: September 2022

Produksi gula di Indonesia cenderung mengalami penurunan di tahun 2015-2019. Salah satu upaya untuk meningkatkan produktivitas tebu yaitu melalui penciptaan varietas unggul baru melalui persilangan tanaman. Selain itu, praktik budidaya tanaman tebu di lahan kering secara monokultur dan terus menerus menyebabkan terjadinya degradasi kesuburan tanah. Penggunaan pupuk bio-slurry dapat menjadi solusi untuk memperbaiki kondisi tanah. Pentingnya pengelolaan hara dibutuhkan tidak hanya untuk meningkatkan hasil produktivitas tanaman tebu melainkan juga untuk keberlanjutan lingkungan. Tujuan penelitian ini untuk mengetahui interaksi yang terjadi antara 9 klon tanaman tebu dengan pemberian pupuk organik cair bio-slurrry terhadap pertumbuhan vegetatif tanaman tebu keprasan satu, serta heritabilitas dan kemajuan genetik dari karakter 9 klon tanaman tebu. Penelitian dilaksanakan di Kebun Percobaan Hollywood, Gresik. Waktu pelaksanaan penelitian dimulai bulan Februari hingga Mei 2022. Penelitian ini menggunakan rancangan petak terbagi (split plot) dengan dua faktor yaitu klon yang terdiri dari 9 taraf perlakuan. Faktor kedua yaitu pemberian pupuk organik cair bio-slurrry yang terdiri dari 2 taraf perlakuan. Kedua faktor tersebut dikombinasikan sehingga diperoleh 27 kombinasi perlakuan. Masing-masing perlakuan diulang sebanyak tiga ulangan, sehingga didapatkan 81 unit percobaan. Analisis data menggunakan Anova uji F 5% jika terdapat perbedaan nyata dilanjutkan uji DMRT 5%, uji korelasi, uji heritabilitas, dan nilai kemajuan genetik. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan adanya interaksi antara 9 klon tanaman tebu dengan pemberian pupuk bio-slurrry pada pertumbuhan vegetatif yaitu pertambahan jumlah ruas pada umur 32 minggu dengan nilai rata-rata tertinggi 3,33 pada perlakuan Klon SB Hijau dan bio-slurry 15 ml/rumpun dan rerata tertinggi 3,83 pada perlakuan Klon SB32 dan bio-slurry 15 ml/rumpun pada umur 34 minggu. Nilai heritabilitas dan kemajuan genetik dengan kategori tinggi terlihat pada karakter tinggi batang (20,55%). Maka, karakter tersebut dapat secara efektif untuk diwariskan dari tetuanya.

Robust Background Identification for Video Editing
Authors: Zhang Fanglue
Published: September 2022

Extracting background features for estimating the camera path is a key step in many video editing and enhancement applications. Existing approaches often fail on highly dynamic videos that are shot by moving cameras and contain severe foreground occlusion. In this talk, we present practical methods that can reliably identify background features in complex video, leading to accurate camera path estimation and background layering. Our methods significantly outperform other alternatives, and can be directly used to improve common video editing applications such as stabilization, compositing and background reconstruction. We also show a novel application benefited from the robust background identification and separation, temporal coherent video generation.

EVOLUTION OF THE MAHALAKSHMI LADIES DRAMA GROUP 1989-2015
Authors: KRISTEN RUDISILL
Published: September 2022

Bombay Gnanam (Gnanam Balasubramanian) started the all-women Mahalakshmi Ladies Drama Group (MLDG) in 1989. It hasn’t been easy for the women to take time from family responsibilities, but they make the time because the troupe provides a space for them to talk about their issues with other women as well as a creative outlet through which they can act on stage. The MLDG has made a niche for itself in the male-oriented sabha theatre scene in Chennai, gaining acceptance as well as praise from even respected male Hindu religious leaders. I discuss the story of the MLDG and argue that their own identities as educated, affluent middle-class Brahmin women along with strategic storytelling and staging methods has allowed them to not only avoid censure but to become popular with the conservative, traditional Brahmin community in Chennai while bringing controversial topics to the stage. They have developed strategies over the years that range from basic cross-dressing to criticizing the actions and attitudes of other women, presenting all perspectives to an issue, leaving the plays without resolution so that audiences can insert their own values, and recently allowing male voices onto the stage through recordings.
The Nakba: Narrating the “Non-Existing” Palestinians into History!
Authors: HATEM BAZIAN
Published: September 2022

I have been engaged in a constant writing project that intends to highlight Palestinian narratives since 1948 up to the present. The dispossession narrative touches every Palestinian family including my own. During the 1948 Nakba and the war period, two family members on my father side were martyred, Jawdat Ali Rida Muhammad Bazian and Imran Ali Rida Muhammad Bazian, while another relative, Rida Ali Muhammad Bazian, was tortured by the British and released to the family bleeding and unconscious in a coma and died at home after a few days, in 1946. The Bazian’s narrative is but a small part in a large picture that includes FaouziAs’adBazian and 14-year-old Khalid Bazian who were martyred in 1967 and 2000, respectively. The Bazian family narrative includes the dean of prisoners, ‘Alaa Bazian, a blind man but endowed with piercing vision for freedom, resistance and a towering figure in the prisoners’ movement.
Poetry for The People: The Counter-Cultural Significance of Malayalam Rap
Authors: AKSHAY A S
Published: September 2022

Rap music, a sub-genre of Hip-Hop music, that evolved out of the African American community in The United States of America during the late 1970s, is a musical genre that has spread its influence across the globe, including India and specifically in the State of Kerala. But how does such a complex and youthfully vigorous art form fit into the specific socio-political and cultural contexts of Kerala? This dissertation attempts to trace the comparatively short but bustling history of the rise of Malayalam Rap, in order establish the place it occupies today, with regards to both the wider context of Hip-Hop culture, as well as the narrower but equally important contexts of its birthplace, Kerala.

 

Essentially, going against the grain of conventional art, Malayalam rap and its practitioners have ushered in an independent art form, adopted from the West and reshaped to fit the needs of Kerala’s culture.The focus is on the literary, artistic and technical aspects of Malayalam rap, in an attempt to legitimize it as a modern, radical form of poetry and to refute certain misconceptions about rap and Hip-hop as a culture that has infamously garnered a bad reputation. The dissertation argues that Malayalam Rap music is a more accessible form of poetry, which has become apopular platform thatvoices the voiceless, the historically silenced classes, and flourishes as an independent counter-culture that opposes and does not fear the threats of commercialization.

The Bovine and The Divine: Arun Kolatkar and the Pandu- Poetry and God in a Just-So Universe
Authors: SONYA J. NAIR
Published: September 2022

The paper examines the many facets of Arun Kolatkar’s spiritual philosophy. The ideas of worship, the world, the powers that run it- make for some of Kolatkar’s finest verses. The focus is also on the ways that Kolatkar visualized Time and Poetry as exemplified by his line drawings in The Policeman. Troubadour, ascetic, narrator of uncomfortable truths and histories- Kolatkar is this and much more as he slices through the webs of artifice and banality and brings narratives from the everydays in voices that are usually relegated to the margins.  In an increasingly xenophobic world, Kolatkar’s brand of sub-cultural bliss can lend some much-needed relief.
Behind the Memory Lane: The Toponymy of Select Places in Thiruvananthapuram
Authors: Athira A R
Published: September 2022

We are shaped by a plethora of tales. They elucidate, educate and escort throughout our lives, sometimes adding a sparkle to our lives.Behind the place names in the city of Thiruvananthapuram is a colourful blend of its age-old memories and contemporary lifestyle. This paper explores how the city got its name and takes us towards its camouflaged past. There is a veritable mine of memories intertwined with myth and mystery. Delving into the toponymy of the place revives,through a cognitive process, the splendid images of its by-gone days. It is then carved into our memory, giving us a sense of belonging to this land of magnificent origins that is surrounded by the towering Western Ghats and the vast Arabian Sea.
The Apparent Lead and the Real Lead: An Analysis of Female Co-leads in Police Procedural Drama Series
Authors: Chandralekha K R
Published: September 2022

Crime thrillers or police procedural drama series are considered one of the most popular genres in visual media, but the presence of women in those is one of contention. The female protagonists of Police procedural series have become less and less stereotypical, and yet they are not completely rid of the patriarchal overtures. The women detectives partnered with male leads in contemporary police procedural dramas are in reality camouflaged as non-stereotypical protagonists, whereas their real status in the series is that of a side-kick or second fiddle. This deceptive semblance makes the audience think that it has a woman in the lead role, while they are just another dispensable character in the life of the male protagonist. This kind of ruse is incorporated to increase the TRP rating, by spiking the interests of both female and male viewers. Redundant shows like “Lucifer,” “The Mentalist” and “Castle” have female co-leads moulded in this misleading manner.
Nature, the Cathedral of the Future: An Eco-Womanist Reading of Alice Walker
Authors: Asha Krishnan.
Published: September 2022

Alice Walker’s perception of divinity in living and non-living beings underpins her ideology of eco-spirituality, which poses faith in the existence of a Universal Spirit that protects, sustains and nourishes all the animate and inanimate beings on earth. She extends the range of her celebrated notion of ‘womanism’ to encompass an all-inclusive balance of living as well as non-living beings, which is precisely what makes womanism different from other theoretical and ideological viewpoints. This paper expatiates on the theme of ecowomanism in Alice Walker’s writings to substantiate that the destiny of the woman of colour as well as the Earth has been the same, both neglected and degraded by the patriarchal values of society.
‘Being a New Christian:’ Dalit Resistance in Paul Chirakkarode’sPulayathara
Authors: S. Devika
Published: September 2022

In India, as Christian converts are reckoned to have moved out of the ambit of the caste system, untouchable Hindu castes – the Dalits – converted to Christianity to reap the fruits of a higher social status within the Christian fold. Paul Chirakkarode’s novel Pulayathara exposes the futility of the strategy of conversion to Christianity used by the Dalits to extricate themselves from the morass of casteism and to upgrade their social status, as the power structures of caste continue to operate within the church to discriminate against the neo-converts.  It brings to light the disjuncture between the promised sense of equality and the lived experience of discrimination that conversion to Christianity had in store for the downtrodden people. This paper attempts an exposition of the dialectics of proselytization foregrounded in Pulayathara as a strategy of resistance against the enslavement, ill treatment and exploitation of the Dalits, a motif that recurs in Chirakkarode’s oeuvre.
“I Believe that Women have No Country:” Portrayal of the Displaced Self inTaslima Nasreen’s Exilic Autobiography My Girlhood
Authors: Dr. Praseedha G.
Published: September 2022

The aim of this paper is to analyse Taslima Nasreen’s first autobiography, My Girlhood as an author–in–exile. The analysis focuses on the way in which she recapitulates her memories as a girl who questioned the dominant discourse on religious and gendered lines. While the narration centres around her family members, the choice that the autobiographer makes to speak out against all and the impact it generated aid in the sculpting of her individual autobiographical identity.

The research examines the behaviour of house-elves in the Harry Potter books. The objective is to understand and examine why the house-elves remain as slaves to wizards even though they have superior magical capabilities. Using the Marxian theory of false consciousness, the theory of Obedience according to the research experiment conducted by Milgram and Durkheim’s Theory of Mechanical and Organic Solidarity, the research identifies behavioral elements in the House-elves that played a role in their oppression. This will throw light on social issues like dominance and violence of communities and its perpetuation through centuries and generations
The Construction of the Cyborg Player in Transistor: A Ludo-Narrative Analysis
Authors: Andrew George Korah
Published: September 2022

The paper intends to study the ludo-narrative structures of the game Transistor[1] to examine how, through the engagement of the player into the game’s ludic structures (i.e. those structures that make it a game) constructs the cyborg body. The aim is to examine how the narrative of a game can contextualise its mechanics, and generate meaning. It understands video games, or even games in general not merely through its representational features, but in recognition that a game constitutes essential structures that make it a game, and enable the possibility of play. The cyborg body is understood in terms of how the player engages with the game in both the ludic and the narrative forms.
Building the Future through the Past: Biopics and the Construction of a Queer History
Authors: DeStephano Mark
Published: September 2022

The paper examines four biopics: “Markova,” “Piñero,” “Before Night Falls,” and “Beautiful Boxer,” which reconstruct the lives of four influential yet controversial individuals in the gay community: Walter Dempster, Jr. (Philippines), Miguel Piñero (Puerto Rico), Reinaldo Arenas (Cuba), and Parinya Charoenphol (Thailand).  Each participated in important events in the history of the gay community, and the filmic representations of their lives contribute to the elaboration of a filmic timeline of gay history.  They include Dempster’s exploitation as a “comfort gay” by Japanese soldiers during World War II, Piñero’s odyssey as a gay Neorican pimp, prisoner, and poet, Arenas’s gay adventures in a notorious Castro prison and his exploits as a gay outlaw, novelist, and AIDS patient, and Charoenphol’s struggle in becoming the first Thai transgender athlete to attain superstar status both nationally and internationally.  My paper studies, from an international perspective, four contributions to the construction of a filmic history of the experiences of gay men in four periods and four nations that resist the notion that “queers” do not figure prominently in history.  As I will show, each man resists the “chrononormativity” described by Elizabeth Freeman on various levels, first by being gay, then by “betraying” the “respectable” career paths marked out for them by society.  These “betrayals,” however, will lead to each man making singular contributions to his local culture as well as to universal queer cultural history.
Re(discovering) the Self: Memory and Narrative in Gabriel Garcia Márquez’ Living to Tell the Tale
Authors: Chitra
Published: September 2022

The paper discusses the ways that autobiographies can serve as documentaries of memory of the physical self and of a deeper philosophical signification. The memoir, which is a referential better suited to such narratives, brings out different contours of the self. The multiple ways that the self can be written through the act of remembering becomes of grave important in a day and age of short attention spans and digitized memory drives. Thus, the act of autobiographical telling becomes performative- a selective oeuvre of events and incidents that serve a positioned narrative.
Gendered Lives: A Study of Two Biographies of Indira Gandhi
Authors: Kumar Preeti
Published: September 2022

Post-modern biographical perspective holds that biographies neither ‘reveal’ a ‘truth’ about a unified, coherent entity, nor are biographical representations untainted by politico- ideological positions. Rather identities are multiple, decentred and fluid, and subjects are constructed and (re)presented through language and shaped by the positions of those who define them. The representation of women is doubly problematized because the politics of gender also reconfigures the narration. A comparative study of two biographies of Indira Gandhi, Indira Gandhi: A Biography by Pupul Jayakar and Indira: The Life of Indira Nehru Gandhi by Katherine Frank demonstrates the importance of gender to female experience and representation. This paper borrows from Judith Butler’s ideas of performing gender and Norman Fairclough’s views on power/discourse. It interrogates the representational strategies that forge contrasting images of the gendered subject through an analysis of lexical fields used to interpret specific events and participants.
Hupomnēmata vs. Historical Contextualization: (Re-)Reading the Memoirs of a Fallen Woman in Colonial Bengal
Authors: Sarkar Hena
Published: September 2022

While public records on the Indian colonial “fallen woman” are abundant and so are personal narratives catering to voyeuristic literary representations (such as works of Priyanath Mukhopadhyay and Panchanan Ghosal in Bengal), instances of self-writing by the self-proclaimed fallen woman are scarce. This historiographical lacuna often leads scholars to inevitably treat memoirs such as those of Binodini Dasi as telling accounts of socio-cultural circumstances and thereby contextualized, and often authentic, historical records pertaining to national cultural processes like theatre. I argue that this representational function contradicts what Foucault calls the “hupomnēmata” in self-writing; subjected to historical contextualization, the written self, as deconstructed and reconstructed in the memoir, is severely compromised. Explaining why it is crucial to assign the theory of hupomnēmata to marginalized voices in life writing, I propose to read Dasi’s Amar Katha (My Story) and Amar Abhinetri Jiban (My Life as an Actress) as an exercise of self-care. In so doing, I explore how the textual performance of feminine subjectivity of a marginalized figure is subsumed within the historical context of and propagated by the memoirs. By navigating the development of the written self in Dasi’s memoirs published over 10 years apart, this paper renders them a site of negotiation between identity-(re)construction (or self-actualization) and national socio-cultural history-writing.
Effects of Peace Education on The Holistic Development of Early Years Learners of Gilgit-Baltistan Pakistan
Authors: Abida Begum  , Saima Karam  , Shueb Sultan
Published: September 2022

There is growing research evidence to support the view that the early years greatly influence the overall development of early learners. This study is a pioneer, intended to explore the effects of peace education on the overall development of early years learners in the remote context of Gilgit Baltistan (GB), Pakistan. The study employs qualitative methodology to gain an in-depth understanding of the issue. For data, interviews, observations, and field notes were collected. The research findings revealed that peace education positively contributes to the holistic development of early years learners and serves as a window of opportunity to inspire children’s future lives positively. The study also found that teachers and parents needed training to undertake peaceful interventions in the learning environment, playgrounds, and home settings. Hence, the study recommends more extensive research to gain further in-depth insights and to understand the broader impact of peace education on the whole life of early years learners of GB.
Inculcating Peace through Literature: Towards an Evolved Pedagogy
Authors: Urvashi Sabu
Published: September 2022

The constitution of UNESCO expressly states that ‘since wars begin in the minds of men, it is in the minds of men that the defences of peace must be constructed.’ As educators, we are only too cognizant of the role that holistic education plays in the formation of a mindset of peace; peace being not just the absence of war but the presence and active functioning of a culture of tolerance and inclusivity.

In a world fraught with tensions and conflict, the study of literature through a more involved and evolved pedagogy can work as an invaluable method of comprehending, inculcating, and applying the concept of peace at both school and higher education levels. In this context, the definition of peace must be construed not just as the absence of war (political peace) but on a larger and deeper scale, as social and individual peace.(Harris, 2002) For this purpose, the literature teacher will be required to reorient her pedagogy, progressing from a mere paraphrased critical investigation of a literary work towards a more thought-provoking inquiry into the ways in which a particular literary text can build/enhance the soft skills of students. (Polat et al, 2016)

This paper attempts to envisage a blueprint for teaching strategies aimed at inculcating and fostering peace using literature as a means, among students as a collective body, and in the individual student as a human being as well as citizen of a globalised world.
The Two Moral Powers and the Purpose of Peace Education
Authors: Dale T. Snauwaert
Published: September 2022

The purpose of this paper is to conceptualize the idea of the development of political efficacy as the core purpose of peace education in terms of what Martha Nussbaum refers to as the architectonic capabilities of practical reason and sociability and what John Rawls refers to as the two moral powers of rationality and reasonableness.  An education for peace calls for the development of basic moral capabilities that empower future citizens for political and moral efficacy.   It is argued that the development of the political efficacy of citizens is grounded in their basic moral capacities and the development of these powers through a pedagogy of reflective, dialogical inquiry can be conceived as the basic purpose of an education for peace.
Shaping of Colonial Bodies: The Ambivalence in the Writings of Early Women’s Magazines in Malayalam
Authors: Anna K
Published: September 2022

Women’s literary writings, particularly the women-centered magazines published in Malayalam – the local vernacular – was critical in shaping the “idea of the modern body” in the making of the colonial subject in Kerala, a coastal, peripheral southwest state in India. These magazines emerged towards the end of the nineteenth century and flourished in the early twentieth century at a time when Kerala was witnessing a constant colonial attempt to tame and regulate colonial, native female bodies. The body, especially its sexual aesthetic and desires, became precarious to the historical project of shaping the modern colonial subject. The discursive public space of these magazines interrogates the colonial reform discourse in the region, which imposed a new gender and sexual order in shaping governable subjects, publicly articulating the social relationships of colonial time and space. Thus, early women’s writings in Malayalam acts as a critical tool in decentering colonial dialectics, deconstructing cultural spaces, expressing alterity, and articulating multiplicity towards the decolonization of gender.[1]

 

[1] Judith Butler, in a lecture-seminar session titled “Who is Afraid of “Gender”?” as part of Makerere Institute of Social Research’s Global Conversations webinar held on the 29th of April, 2020, states that gender is neither “a universal theory,” nor “a category” that is continually applicable, and therefore, be understood as “a contested site.”  (“Who is Afraid of “Gender”?”).
Revisiting Cancer: The Politics of Discrimination and Disguise in Audre Lordes’ works.
Authors: Deepti Parangot
Published: September 2022

Breast cancer is the disease which conquers the diseased body without warning, savagely eating into the system silently, spreading across vital organs and rupturing the body’s progress and functions. If the diseased is prudent enough or rather fortunate to detect the growth which is slowly and silently seeping into the body early intervention might help. Detection is ‘fortunately’ just the beginning of this battle followed by mastectomy, the agony of chemotherapy and radiation and the perpetual fear of recurrence and death.  This paper attempts to look into Audre Lorde’s works as she part of her other ‘selves’ detects the disease, understands the diseased, the treatment creates questions on histories, identities and concept of the secular, unity and peace are correlative to erotic and sisterhood. The battles are on-going and the cancers are spreading. The only way to understand this disease in perspective is to think deep, speak loud and keep questioning.
The Mountain Meadows Massacre, as Told by Mark Twain and Jack London
Authors: Reesman Jeanne Campbell
Published: September 2022

This article addresses Mark Twain’s as well as Jack London’s writing about the infamous Mountain Meadows Massacre against settlers moving west; this occurred in newly colonized Mormon land in Utah. The Mormons used local Indians as scapegoats, but the survivors pinned the event solely on Mormon shoulders. Interestingly, in contrast to most other writers and journalists, neither Twain in Roughing It nor London in The Star Rover simply paints a picture of Mormon atrocity, but instead tries to enter the minds of the persecuted Mormons as well.
“The Vigorous New Vernacular”: Settler Colonialism and the Politics of Irony in Roughing It
Authors: Young Alex Trimble
Published: September 2022

This article argues, contrary to the contemporary critical consensus, that Twain’s notorious representation of the Goshutes in Roughing It is a complex satire directed at both the Indigenous people he encounters and those among his white audience who attribute the Goshute’s abjection to essential racial traits. This satire does not rescue the passage from an irredeemable racial logic, but it does mark Twain’s thinking on race as substantially different from the forms of “Indian hating” common among his contemporaries. Exploring Twain’s sources and considering the function of irony in Roughing It more broadly, this article argues that the leveling effect of his irony presages a shift in the United States’ settler colonial “logic of elimination” from frontier homicide to assimilationism, and the subsequent modes of liberal thought (most notably Richard Rorty’s) that imagine irony as a necessary mode of subjectivity for a citizen in a pluralist democracy.

Published: September 2022

A comercialização de produtos naturais está crescendo exponencialmente no Brasil e, dessa forma, as indústrias precisam ter processos produtivos cada vez mais eficientes. Diante das exigências da indústria pela padronização de processos e execução contínua de melhorias, objetivou-se determinar ações para inserção de melhorias nos processos produtivos da empresa. O método é de natureza qualitativa com delineamento descritivo e exploratório. Como estratégia de pesquisa, utilizou-se o estudo de caso em uma empresa de produtos naturais. Ao final do estudo, foi possível apresentar propostas de melhoria no estoque de produto acabado, evitando danos nas embalagens, bem como alteração das identificações dos produtos tornando o espaço mais harmônico e possibilitando a alteração do layout atual. Ainda, sugeriu-se a implantação de um setor de PCP responsável pelo recebimento, processamento, levantamento das demandas de matérias primas e solicitações de compras. Desse modo, os colaboradores do setor produtivo ficariam responsáveis apenas pela produção, não necessitando segregar pedidos de produtos já em estoque e sem matéria-prima. Sugeriu-se também a aplicação de uma métrica de controle de fornecedores com desenvolvimento de uma base de dados, proporcionando uma melhoria efetiva na escolha dos fornecedores.

Os Objetivos de Desenvolvimento Sustentável foram criados pela Organização das Nações Unidas em 2015 e apresentam metas globais com um prazo de serem alcançadas até 2030. Eles visam a mitigação de diversos problemas ambientais e sociais no mundo todo. O alcance das metas específicas de cada Objetivo de Desenvolvimento Sustentável (ODS) depende do compromisso de todas as nações envolvidas neste propósito. E mais especificamente, as empresas, dentro de cada nação, possuem um papel fundamental para alcançar esses objetivos globais. O objetivo principal do trabalho é a investigação de quais empresas no município de Passo Fundo, no Rio Grande do Sul, estão declarando ações sustentáveis e contribuindo com o alcance das metas globais. As informações foram coletadas qualitativamente por meio dos sites oficiais de doze empresas do município. As boas práticas encontradas foram relacionadas aos Objetivos de Desenvolvimento Sustentável, com o objetivo de analisar as ações que as empresas desenvolvem. Algumas ações apareceram com maior frequência, como, por exemplo, as práticas para realizar um consumo sustentável dos recursos hídricos no processo produtivo, utilização de energias renováveis, redução de desigualdades, gestão de resíduos, diminuição da emissão de gases de efeito estufa e a preservação da biodiversidade, atendendo principalmente os ODS 6, 7, 10, 12, 13 e 15. Por outro lado, os ODS 1, 5, 11 e 14 aparecerem em poucas ações nas doze empresas estudadas.

A rotina de trabalho das frutarias tem exigido cada vez mais cuidado na aquisição, armazenagem e no manuseio de frutas e verduras, pois abrangem produtos que tem grande risco de descarte e desperdícios caso sejam mal administrados. Diante deste contexto, o objetivo deste estudo está em elaborar o mapeamento dos principais processos de uma frutaria, para avaliar os desperdícios e propor um plano de ação para reduzir o descarte e desperdício de produtos. A metodologia consiste em uma pesquisa-ação, onde foi conduzido o mapeamento dos processos que envolvem as etapas das atividades de: compras, carregamento, recebimento/estocagem, abastecimento e consumidor final. O procedimento metodológico buscou identificar a quantidade de produtos descartados diariamente e com base no mapeamento das atividades elaborar um plano de ação para a redução dos desperdícios. Os principais resultados apontam que é possível efetuar compras de lotes menores e mais frequentes para produtos com baixo consumo, utilizar caminhões refrigerados para o transporte, acondicionar os produtos em embalagens adequadas, prestar auxílio aos clientes durante o empacotamento. A estimativa é de que as ações propostas consigam gerar uma redução de 50% nos desperdícios e descarte de produtos no setor de hortifrúti da frutaria.

In the same way, in the present there is a brief bibliography of the author, who in his childhood lived in Santa Beatriz, a middle-class neighborhood in Lima and later moved to Miraflores, who goes through difficult times, and then travels to Paris. Thus, in Paris he wrote his first book The Gallinazos without Feathers, from the point of view that he worked as a janitor in a Hotel in that country. This article also contains theories related to the right to the integrity of the child, as well as the article you can see a general infrastructure, both the life of the author and the work Gallinazos sin Plumas, which is closely linked to the affectation of the child. The right to the integrity of the child, in addition, concepts and theories related to the subject, together with some possible solutions, finally it is concluded that there is an impairment of the right to the integrity of the child, that is why the state must implement policies in a transversal manner and put children as a priority, the same ones who must be materialized in practice, ceasing to be just theory, therefore this implies the violation of your right.

“It is not the strongest of the species that survives, not most intelligent that survives, it is the one that is the most adaptable to change”- Charles Darwin (1809-1882)

The changing scenario of the present Management Education offers students more openings, greater self-confidence and out of the box ways to hone their skills. It includes internationalization with increased focus on international partnerships, international internships, student exchange programs, joint degrees and many other things.  The use of new technologies in Management teaching is a trend that is catching up fast.

Is the Medium Really the Message: Disambiguating the Sender’s Role.
Authors: Aganbi Victor
Published: September 2022

McLuhan uses the term 'message' to signify both the content of the medium as a message which can be easily grasped and the character of the medium as another message which can be easily overlooked. He proposed that it was the medium itself that shaped and controlled "the scale and form of human association and action", suggesting that the "content of any medium is always another medium.” Thus, speech is the content of writing, writing is the content of print, and print itself is the content of the telegraph. Does this mean that the medium is everything and everything is the medium? This Marshallian postulation leaves the role of the source/sender as the message creator as well as the medium and target audience selector in limbo. This article while agreeing with McLuhan that a medium is not something neutral as it takes hold of people and massages them, especially a new medium, notes nevertheless, that it’s all at the behest and pleasure of the source/sender. This study uses in-depth literature review, analyses and synthesis to resolve this research question in favour of the sender as the message himself, and all other elements of the communication process take life from him.

GESTION DU RISQUE DE CHANGE DANS UNE INSTITUTION FINANCIERE, CAS DE LA RAWBANK DE 2011 A 2020
Authors: MORISHO Georges , MUSHABAH GEDEON
Published: September 2022

Dans le contexte d'une économie internationale caractérisée par le flottement des devises et des fluctuations de grandes ampleurs des cours des monnaies, la gestion du risque de change est une nécessité.

La démarche méthodologique adoptée par la présente étude a consisté en une démarche empirique visant à dégager les risques de change à l’Actif tout comme au Passif, notre recherche s’est appuyée sur la méthode extra comptable et l’approche analytique. Ces deux méthodes ont été appuyées par la technique documentaire combinée aux outils statistiques pour le traitement des données.

Au terme de cette recherche, nous avons constaté que ; la situation des dettes qu’a la RAWBANK dans le circuit bancaire, est la somme des comptes à vue banques locales c’est-à-dire les dettes contractées  dans le circuit interbancaire, des opérations avec la clientèle et les autres ressources permanentes. Ces dettes ont constitué une part importante dans la détermination du risque de change au Passif. Chaque fois qu’une banque contracte une dette, toute fluctuation du taux de change impacte positivement ou négativement sur son passif.

Dans la détermination de la position de change, la RAWBANK est dans une position de change déficitaire car le risque de change à l’Actif bien que positif, ne couvre pas le risque de change au Passif ce qui nécessite une constitution d’une part importante des provisions et revoir sa politique de crédit afin de faire face aux fluctuations du taux de change.
