Implementasi Kebijakan Peralihan Dana Hibah Dayah untuk Penanganan COVID-19 di Kota lhokseumawe
Authors: Fitria Annisa , M Malahayati , H Hamdani
Published: August 2023

Pengaturan Menteri Dalam Negeri Republik Indonesia mengeluarkan Keputusan Nomor 35 Tahun 2020 Tentang Percepatan Pengutamaan Penggunaan Alokasi Anggaran (Refocusing) untuk Kegiatan Tertentu, Perubahan Alokasi, dan Penggunaan Anggaran Pendapatan dan Belanja Daerah. Dalam menangani permasalahan perekonomian tersebut, pemerintah menggunakan kategori kebijakan redistributif disertai dengan kebijakan substantif dan kebijakan procedural dalam melakukan percepatan penggutamaan penggunaan alokasi anggaran kegiatan tertentu (refocusing). Berdasarkan pengaturan tersebut, penelitian ini bertujuan untuk meneliti kebijakan peralihan dana hibah dayah untuk penanganan COVID-19 di Kota Lhokseumawe terhadap kesesuaian peraturan perundang-undangan, serta mengenai dampak yang timbul akibat peralihan dana tersebut terhadap dayah di Kota Lhokseumawe. Jenis penelitian yang digunakan adalah penelitian hukum empiris/yuridis sosiologis atau disebut juga penelitian lapangan. Bertitik tolak pada data primer, yaitu data yang didapat langsung dari masyarakat sebagai sumber pertama dengan melalui kegiatan penelitian lapangan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa kebijakan peralihan dana hibah dayah sudah dilakukan sesuai dengan ketentuan perundang-undangan. Dana hibah dayah yang bersumber dari APBK Kota Lhokseumawe Tahun 2021, dana tersebut berasal dari dana aspirasi dewan yang disalurkan kepada organisasi perangkat daerah kemudian diberikan kepada dayah yang membutuhkan bantuan. Dana hibah tersebut sebesar 3 miliar mengalami pemotongan sebesar 20% untuk penanganan COVID-19 dan 50% khusus dana insentif guru. Pemotongan tersebut disepakati bersama berdasarkan hasil rapat pimpinan tanggal 18 Februari 2021 di Aula Kantor BPKAD Kota Lhokseumawe. Kebijakan tersebut berdasarkan Surat Sekretariat Daerah Pemerintah Kota Lhokseumawe Nomor 900/062/PMK.SD/2021. Dampak yang timbul akibat kebijakan tersebut adalah kurang maksimalnya pembangunan operasional dayah, sebahagian bahkan terhenti. Dan semakin memburuknya perekonomian terhadap guru yang mayoritas berasal dari kalangan kurang mampu. Kebijakan tersebut sebaiknya dikecualikan untuk dana dayah, hal tersebut karena dayah merupakan lembaga pendidikan istimewa dan penting untuk mendidik generasi-generasi Islam di Aceh.

Published: August 2023

This study aims to examine the influence of religiosity on guilt feelings among female inmates in Class IIA Women's Penitentiary Martapura. The research involved 213 female inmates aged between 15 and 50 years old. The participants' guilt feelings were measured using a guilt feelings scale, while their religiosity was assessed using a religiosity scale. The collected data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and regression analysis. The findings indicated a significant positive correlation between religiosity and guilt feelings, suggesting that higher levels of religiosity were associated with increased guilt feelings. Regression analysis further confirmed the influence of religiosity on guilt feelings. The study also explored the influence of age, types of offenses, sentence duration, and length of incarceration on guilt feelings and religiosity. The results revealed variations in guilt feelings and religiosity based on these factors. These findings contribute to a better understanding of the relationship between religiosity and guilt feelings among female inmates, emphasizing the importance of religious factors in the correctional context.

Published: August 2023

Introduction: The relationship between the tumor inflammatory infiltrate, also known as tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs), and invasive breast carcinomas has been extensively studied in recent years to verify its association with prognosis and response to treatment. The goal of this study was to associate the presence of TILs with patient’s survival time. Methods: We studied prognostic clinicopathological characteristics already established in the literature and their impact on overall five-year survival time of patients with invasive breast cancer treated at Hospital Santa Casa in Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais, Brazil, in 2011 (n=290). This was an observational and retrospective study. Results: The presence of TILs was associated with tumors of no special type (p=0.018) and with younger age of the patients (p=0.042). Smaller tumor size (HR: 19.24; 95%CI 4.30–86.15; p<0.001), absence of metastasis to the axillary lymph nodes (HR: 2.80; 95%CI 1.02–7.70; p=0.002), positivity for progesterone receptor (HR: 0.39; 95%CI 0.17–0.87; p=0.022), and presence of TILs (HR: 0.23; 95%CI 0.08–0.65; p=0.005) were associated with longer survival times. Conclusions: This study suggests that the presence of TILs, along with other clinicopathological characteristics, is a prognostic factor in breast cancer.

Масса 1 соцветия, продуктивность 1 растения и урожайность сухого сырья ромашки аптечной была наибольшей в варианте разбросного способа посева с применением стимулятора роста HB-101 и составила 20,1 мг, 1,847 г и 12,93 ц/га соответственно.
A House Filled with Light: The Birth of Moses in Late Antique Contexts
Authors: Strauch Schick Shana
Published: August 2023

In a homiletic cluster expounding upon the first two chapters of Exodus, Bavli Sotah 12a–b includes a tradition describing light filling the house upon Moses’s birth. While this appears to be a standard trope of the heroic nativity, this motif is uncommon. It is found only in Second Temple accounts of Noah’s birth, and in depictions of the birth of Zoroaster and apocryphal infancy gospels that were popular among Syriac Christians (and later concerning the birth of Muhammed). After examining the textual evidence pointing to the uniquely Babylonian provenance of this talmudic tradition, I explore the variations on the motif in these other birth narratives. I argue that these similarities suggest a desire on the part of the rabbis to depict the focal hero of the rabbinic imagination in cosmological and even divine terms similar to those of competing religions, though it deviates from the usual midrashic depictions of Moses.

Authors: Kingsbury Celia , Bissonnette François , Bernard Paquito
Published: August 2023

Contexte : Au Canada, la densification des centres urbains a poussé les personnes à faible revenu vers des zones suburbaines moins dispendieuses, limitant les options en transport en raison de l’aménagement centré sur la voiture et de l’inefficacité du réseau de transport en commun. Considérant que le vélo favorise l’autonomie des déplacements, la participation sociale en plus des bienfaits sur la santé physique et mentale, sa promotion par des interventions à l’échelle locale est un objectif essentiel pour favoriser l’équité en matière de transport. Objectif : C’est dans ce cadre qu’en collaboration l’organisme Cyclo Nord-Sud, cette étude vise à : 1) explorer les perceptions du projet pilote « Construis ton vélo ! » offert en parascolaire à des élèves du secondaire en milieux défavorisés, et 2) identifier les composantes spécifiques au programme perçues (dé)favorablement chez les participant.e.s. Méthodologie : Une méthode qualitative de type compréhensive avec une approche inductive et phénoménologique été utilisée. Les données ont été collectées à l’aide d’un entretien de groupe à la fin du programme et une analyse par catégories conceptualisantes a été complétée. Résultats : Les résultats ont révélé que les retombées positives du programme « Construis ton vélo! » se rapportaient 1) au bien-être; 2) aux apprentissages; 3) à l’accès à un vélo et 4) à la motilité. Les fonctionnements clés du programme qui ont teinté positivement leur expérience lors des ateliers se rapportent 1) à l’approche des adultes encadrants; 2) au parascolaire; 3) au travail d’équipe; 4) au travail manuel et 5) au fait de repartir avec un vélo à la fin du programme. Conclusion : Les mécanismes identifiés par les jeunes pourront être valorisés dans les prochaines versions du programme et même guider la création de programmes similaires. Ainsi, cette évaluation représente un pas de plus vers le développement d’interventions qui vise le pouvoir d’action en matière de transport.

Variability of Maximum Glottal Angle on Clinical Sniff Task Differs in Patients with Functional and Organic Laryngeal Pathologies Compared to Healthy Controls
Authors: Welch Brett , Gold Katherine , Gartner-Schmidt Jacqueline , Petrov Andrej , Law Anthony , Helou Leah
Published: August 2023

Objectives: Practitioners rely heavily on flexible endoscopic visualization of the true vocal folds during a repeated “sniff-ee” maneuver to assess vocal fold mobility. However, the human eye lacks the temporal and spatial precision required to accurately gauge fine differences in maximal glottal angle. This study compared differences in maximal glottal angle variables during “sniff-ee” maneuvers across patients with various voice and laryngeal breathing disorders. Methods: We retrospectively measured glottal angle from flexible laryngeal video endoscopy (LVE) exams in six groups of patients with voice and upper airway disorders: laryngeal dystonia/essential tremor (LD/ET), vocal fold lesions, vocal fold atrophy, paradoxical vocal fold motion disorder (PVFMD), muscle tension dysphonia (MTD), and healthy controls. Maximum glottal angle (GAMAX) and average glottal angle (GAAVG) were calculated during three serial “sniff-ee” maneuvers for all participants. Individual disorder groups (MTD, PVFMD, LD/ET, atrophy, lesion) and broader disorder types (functional and organic) were compared to healthy controls using simple linear regression analyses. Results: No significant difference in either GAMAX or GAAVG was found between controls and the disorder subgroups or broader disorder type (function and organic). However, there were statistically significant differences in the variability of GAMAX in both PVFMD (6.2° more variability; p<0.001) and LD/ET (5.8° more variability; p<0.001) compared to healthy controls. Conclusion: Patients diagnosed with LD/ET and PVFMD both demonstrated significantly more variability in their GAMAX compared to healthy controls, suggesting that movement consistency or coordination may be relatively compromised in these patient groups. Further research is warranted to investigate the sensitivity and specificity of glottal angle variability in diagnosing PVFMD and LD in clinical or research settings.

Predatory Journals on Twitter: The Lack of Community Engagement
Authors: Nishikawa-Pacher Andreas
Published: August 2023

Scientific journals disseminate research findings not only via the usual editorial processes, but also by actively engaging with communities on social media platforms such as Twitter. While such an outreach is associated with direct benefits for journals (greater readership, higher citation counts), visibility may not be beneficial to predatory journals whose guiding principle lies in questionable practices. One may thus assume that predatory journals shun community engagement as opposed to serious journals. To test this hypothesis, this paper compares the Twitter interactions of predatory journals’ accounts with that of ‘serious’ (non-predatory) medical-clinical journals. It indeed finds that the median predatory journal hardly ever mentions, retweets or replies to other users, while the median non-predatory journal interacts with distinct, unique users roughly once in three Tweets. The effect size is moderate, but statistically significant. This paper thus suggests that (the absence of) community engagement could possibly serve as yet another indicator distinguishing predatory outlets from their ‘serious’ counterparts, at least as an additional marker in case one is in severe doubt.
Uso Simbólico do Fenômeno Hipnótico e sua Iconicidade na Terapia: Uma Revisão Sistemática da Literatura
Authors: Santana Victor Lawrence Bernardes
Published: August 2023

Este artigo apresenta uma revisão sistemática que aborda a lacuna de pesquisa relativa ao uso simbólico do fenômeno hipnótico e sua iconicidade na terapia. O objetivo principal foi investigar a relação entre a comunicação simbólica e a eficácia terapêutica da hipnose. A pesquisa foi conduzida por meio de critérios de inclusão específicos, usando as palavras-chave "hypnotic subject," "hypnosis," "hypnotic phenomena," "symbolic," "symbolism," "iconicity," e "symbolic use of the hypnotic phenomenon. Foram consideradas publicações dos últimos 10 anos, com os dados coletados em 06 de julho de 2023. A busca de literatura foi realizada nas bases de dados Google Acadêmico, BASE, Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ), PubMed Central e PubMed. A revisão incluiu apenas trabalhos em português e inglês, com acesso aberto. Resultados duplicados e estudos em idiomas diferentes do português e inglês foram excluídos. Os achados revelaram uma notável lacuna na pesquisa sobre o uso simbólico da hipnose, apesar da extensa pesquisa na área. Embora estudos tangenciais tenham indicado benefícios da hipnose em contextos variados, a ausência de investigações diretas sobre a iconicidade na comunicação hipnótica foi evidente. Esta pesquisa preenche uma importante lacuna, destacando a relevância de futuras investigações para uma compreensão mais profunda da terapia hipnótica. Adicionalmente, a análise de clusterização foi empregada para elucidar os constructos emergentes da fundamentação teórica e seus vínculos com os resultados empíricos, fornecendo uma visão ampla e integrada das inter-relações conceituais. Limitações incluem a escassez de estudos focados e possíveis viéses de seleção.
Counteracting Uncertainty: Exploring the Impact of Anxiety on Predictive Sensorimotor Control Mechanisms in a Manual Interception Task
Authors: Harris David , Arthur Tom , Wilson Mark , Le Gallais Ben , Parsons Thomas , Dill Ally , Vine Samuel James
Published: August 2023

The impact of clinical anxiety on learning and decision-making is well-established. However, the influence of temporary anxiety states on optimal learning and belief updating in healthy individuals remains less explored. In this study, we investigated how anxious states affect the process of forming and revising sensorimotor predictions. Study participants engaged in a virtual reality interceptive task while we manipulated performance incentives to induce situational pressure. We then assessed changes in physiological arousal, self-reported anxiety levels, task performance, and eye movement patterns. Employing Bayesian computational models of perception, we analysed how quickly predictive eye movements were adjusted across multiple trials. The results revealed that heightened anxiety led to a slower rate of updating predictive eye movements, accompanied by an increase in visual exploration of the environment. These findings deepen our understanding of how emotional states, like anxiety, interact with active inference behaviours. Specifically, they highlight the limitation imposed on updating predictive sensorimotor behaviours during anxious conditions. We discuss the implications of these findings within the context of theoretical frameworks such as the free energy principle, which conceptualises anxiety as a state of internal entropy that organisms seek to alleviate.

Authors: Brailas Alexios , Alexias George , Koskinas Konstantinos
Published: August 2023

The film Onslaught produced in 2007 for the Dove beauty products company and directed by Tim Piper is meant to show the pressures on young girls and women to fit an artificial body ideal, the pressure to be "perfect" no matter the cost paid. This chapter focuses on demonstrating the application of sequential analysis method to study the dynamics of an online discussion. Content analysis can be used for analyzing the content of a discussion: what is it at stake, what arguments are articulated, the concepts that emerge, even how the individuals may be experiencing their own active participation. The continued use of the sequential analysis method could be instrumental in analyzing comments exchange in other YouTube videos or in different social media platforms, where threaded virtual interactions are thriving. Sequential analysis can be used as a building block to the development of a methodological research toolkit for understanding virtual social interactions.
Discovering Cyclic Causal Models in Psychological Research
Authors: Park Kyuri , Waldorp Lourens , Ryan Oisín
Published: August 2023

Statistical network models have become popular tools for analyzing multivariatepsychological data. In empirical practice, network parameters are often interpretedas reflecting causal relationships – an approach that can be characterizedas a form of causal discovery. Recent research has shown that undirected networkmodels are likely to perform poorly as causal discovery tools in the contextof discovering acyclic causal structures, a task for which many alternative methodsare available. However, acyclic causal models are likely unsuitable for manypsychological phenomena, such as psychopathologies, which are often characterizedby cycles or feedback loop relationships between symptoms. A numberof cyclic causal discovery methods have been developed, largely in the computerscience literature, but they are not as well studied or widely applied inempirical practice. In this paper, we provide an accessible introduction to thebasics of cyclic causal discovery for empirical researchers. We examine threedifferent cyclic causal discovery methods and investigate their performance intypical psychological research contexts by means of a simulation study. We alsodemonstrate the practical applicability of these methods using an empirical exampleand conclude the paper with a discussion of how the insights we gainfrom cyclic causal discovery relate to statistical network analysis.

AbstrakPesatnya perkembangan teknologi informasi telah menjadikan informasi sebagai kebutuhan pokok bagi setiap orang. Seiring berkembangnya teknologi, keamanan terhadap kerahasiaan akan data dan informasi yang dipertukarkan akan semakin meningkat. Saat ini keamanan dalam pertukaran informasi masih kurang terjaga. Permasalahan yang terjadi pada proses pertukaran informasi yang bersifat rahasia, seringkali infromasi tersebut tersebar luas karena adanya penyadapan, pencurian, dan pemalsuan informasi, yang akan menyebabkan kerugian bagi pemilik informasi. Penerapan algoritma kriptografi ElGamal dan caesar cipher adalah salah satu cara efektif dalam pertukaran informasi agar tetap terjaga kerahasiaannya. Keamanan algoritma ini terletak pada sulitnya menghitung logaritma diskrit. Algoritma caesar cipper merupakan sistem persandian klasik berbasis subtitusi yang sederhana pada enkripsi dan dekripsi sebuah sistem persandian caesar menggunakan operasi shift. Adapun hasil dari penelitian ini adalah terciptanya sebuah aplikasi untuk proses enkripsi pesan asli menjadi pesan yang tidak dapat terbaca agar pesan yang akan dikirim tetap terjaga kerahasiaannya dan mengembalikannya dengan proses dekripsi untuk proses penerimaan atau pembacaan pesan oleh penerima.Kata Kunci: caesar cipher, dekripsi, elgamal, enkripsi, kriptografi AbstractThe rapid development of information technology has made information as a basic need for everyone. As technology develops, security for confidentiality of data and information exchanged will increase. At present security in information exchange is still not maintained. The problems that occur in the process of exchanging information that are confidential, often the information is widespread because of wiretapping, theft, and falsification of information, which will cause harm to the information owner. The application of ElGamal cryptographic algorithm and caesarean cipher is one of the effective ways to exchange information to maintain its confidentiality. The security of this algorithm lies in the difficulty of calculating discrete logarithms. The cipper caesar algorithm is a simple substitution based coding system for encryption and decryption of a cesarean coding system using shift operations. The results of this study are the creation of an application for the encryption process of the original message into an unreadable message so that the message to be sent is kept confidential and returns it with the decryption process for receiving or reading the message by the recipient.Keywords: caesar cipher, cryptographic, decryption, elgamal, encryption

Authors: Ntando Elliot Mpahla  , Bulelwa Makena
Published: August 2023

The findings from this study indicated that the programmes of student teacher education are not implemented in totality as there is no module for Physical Education (PE) in the programmes of study in the Faculty of Education. This study aimed at investigating the preparation of student teachers through PE teaching and learning in one rural university of the Eastern Cape Province. PE teaching and learning for student teachers at a higher education institution means preparing future teachers in totality to acquire vibrant and active public schools. This study used a qualitative research methodology where data was collected from fifteen (15) participants composing of five (05) B Ed Foundation Phase Teaching student teachers, five (05) Postgraduate (PGCE) student teachers and five (05) lecturers from the Faculty of Education. Semi-structured interviews were used as instruments of data collection. Participants for the study were selected through purposive sampling because of their defining characteristics about the knowledge of the problem under study. The study concludes that it is awkward to train and develop student teachers for public schools without the knowledge of PE teaching and learning. There is a recommendation to infuse training of student teachers in PE, henceforth, as novice teachers get employment at schools, they are allocated among other duties, extra-mural activities such sport.

Transmissible venereal tumor (TVT) is also known as Sticker tumor, canine condyloma or venereal lymphosarcoma, referred to as a contagious neoplasm, consisting of round cells, primarily found in the external genitalia, but extragenital and metastatic primary neoplasms may also occur. They can be single or multiple, up to 10 cm in diameter, with a reddish, ulcerated surface and multiple nodules. This work proposes to carry out a survey of transmissible venereal tumors observed in the population control project in the municipality of Salinas, North of Minas Gerais. The research was carried out at the IFNMG Veterinary Hospital, Salinas Campus, MG, with 31 dogs from Salinas’s municipal shelter, from July to December 2022. Vaginal or penile swab and imprint techniques were performed on the dogs. The frequency of TVT in the evaluated dogs was 54.84%. Of the 17 animals positive for TVT, only 3 of them (17.65%) had macroscopic lesions with neoplastic masses present in the genital region, while the other 14 (82.35%) did not. Based on the cytomorphological tests, the highest frequency was of the plasmacytoid type of TVT, with 64.70%. According to the distribution by sex, evaluating in general, there was a higher frequency of TVT in females (64.70%) compared to males (35.30%). However, the greater number of animals participating in the project in this period was female, with 22 females and 9 males. Regarding the frequency of TVT distributed according to sex in terms of the cytomorphology of tumor cells, a higher frequency of plasmacytoid TVT was evaluated in both females (63.64%) and males (66.66%). The present study is the first to carry out a survey of TVT cases in dogs in the municipality of Salinas, North of Minas Gerais, and the data obtained suggest high incidence, in addition to affecting both sexes. One of the factors that favor the spread of TVT is the lack of information regarding animal care, responsible tutorship and castration projects, preventing the spread not only of TVT, but also other public health diseases, with guidance to the community being extremely important. We propose to carry out new municipal or regional studies in order to compare the occurrences of TVT, since the culture of the region still is to keep its animals semi-indoors, and there is a large number of stray dogs, thus justifying the data found.

This work replaces sodium chloride (NaCl) by potassium chloride (KCl) at increasing levels, with the addition of essential oils from oregano and thyme to mitigate the effect of potassium chloride on consumers' sensory evaluation of beef hamburgers. Three levels of replacement of sodium by potassium were tested (KC20, KC40 and KC60 with 20%, 40% and 60% of replacement respectively) and compared to the control (CONT, 100% sodium chloride) how much initial microbiological characteristics and sensory evaluation by 112 consumers. The replacement of NaCl by KCl did not change (P > 0.05) the initial microbial population. Likewise, the levels of replacement of NaCl by KCl did not change (P > 0.05) the color, odor and texture acceptability of the beef hamburgers. Substitutions of 20% and 40% of NaCl by KCl improved (P < 0.05) the flavor and overall acceptability of beef hamburgers. Still, for 60% replacement levels, no difference was observed (P > 0.05) when compared to the CONT group. Different clusters of consumers were observed for flavor and overall acceptability (P < 0.05). In conclusion, it is possible to replace up to 60% of NaCl by KCl in beef hamburgers, with the inclusion of essential oils of oregano and thyme, in the sensory evaluation by consumers being 20% the most recommended level of replacement.

The present work aims to describe the case of a Quarter Horse foal, 9 months old and weighing 166 kg, which was tended to by the medical and surgical clinic for large animals at the Veterinary Hospital of the Federal University of Paraná for correction of a cleft palate. Xylazine (0.5 mg/kg) was used as preanesthetic medication. Subsequently, induction was performed with propofol (1mg/kg) and ketamine (1 mg/kg). For anesthetic maintenance, isoflurane, lidocaine (3 mg/kg/h), ketamine (0.6 mg/kg/h) and dexmedetomidine (1 ug/kg/h) were used. Intraoperative analgesia was combined with locoregional blocks, with maxillary, mental and inferior alveolar nerve blocks being performed using anatomical references with lidocaine and bupivacaine (3 ml per site). Among the physiological parameters monitored, heart rate, systolic blood pressure, mean blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure stand out, having remained stable throughout the anesthetic period. Finally, the maxillary, mental and inferior alveolar nerve block technique was possibly a viable alternative for the proposed procedure, since there were no parametric alterations of nociception during surgery.
Public administration in the activities of the court apparatus: Approaches to the formation of the concept
Authors: Hulak Оlena , Shcherbak Artem
Published: August 2023

The article analyses the scientific approaches to the content of the concepts of “public administration” and “public administration in the activities of the court apparatus”. It is noted that establishing the essence of public administration, its features and the actual formulation of the definition of public administration in the activities of the court apparatus, which would fully reflect its legal nature, is the most pressing issue in the light of judicial reform. The author argues that a separate component of building the organizational structure of the court apparatus is the established practice of organizing activities in each particular court, with due regard to which the court administration develops and approves standard staffing tables for each group of courts; based on the maximum number of civil servants and technical staff, the staffing tables of courts are approved by the heads of their apparatus and court presidents. It is proved that public administration in the activities of the court apparatus has not been studied in detail. The doctrinal teachings regarding the understanding of administration in the judicial system are in many cases opposite and are not applied unambiguously. When characterizing public administration in the judicial system, the semantic load is focused on the characterization of “organizational support of the courts”, “judicial management”, “organizational management of courts”, and management relations existing in the judicial system.
On the issue of legal support for the use of green bonds for the development of organic production in Ukraine
Authors: Novak Tamara , Мelnyk Viktoriia
Published: August 2023

In this article, it has been conducted a scientific and theoretical analysis of the legislation, which introduces the green bonds as a tool for financing organic production, and also it has been identified the ways to improve it. It has been determined that a new type of valuable securities – green bonds can become one of the tools to support the development of organic agricultural production. It is proved that singling out of environmental projects as a direction, which involve the use of funds raised from the issue of green bonds, organic farming, is debatable due to the lack of a regulatory definition of this concept, which can complicate the practical implementation of legislative prescriptions and compliance with the standards for issuing green bonds (Green Bond Principles). Based on the analysis of legal doctrine in terms of defining the concepts “organic farming”, “organic crop production”, “organic production”, as well as the features of organic production, it has been concluded that organic crop production, animal husbandry, aquaculture fully meet the categories of environmental projects, stipulated by the GBR principles (such as: environmentally sustainable agriculture, animal husbandry and aquaculture; agricultural technologies that do not harm the climate, etc.). It is proposed to lay out the first paragraph of the Part 2 of the Article 18 of the Law of Ukraine “On Capital Markets and Organized Commodity Markets” in the following wording: “an environmental project is a project in the field of alternative energy, energy efficiency, minimization of the formation, disposal and processing of wastes, the introduction of environmentally friendly transport, organic production, conservation of flora and fauna”, water and land resources, adaptation to climate change, as well as another project aimed at protecting the natural environment, introducing environmental standards, reducing emissions into the environment.”
