Investigation on the effects of the number of main engines in sailing yachts in design and engineering perspectives: A case of Bodrum Gulets
Authors: TURAN Bülent İbrahim
Published: December 2023

Yacht design consists of multidisciplinary processes to obtain optimum solution that satisfies the requirements of the users as well as regulations to assure the safety at sea. Following the determination of the yacht type, processes such as preparing the general layout plan in line with the demands and expectations of the user, making hydrostatic calculations and speed-power calculations, determining the hull and superstructure design are followed. In these processes, the main engine selection, which is made depending on the speed and performance expectations, affects not only the engine room, but also many details such as the shaft angle of the boat, the propeller-hull clearance, the placement of the areas adjacent to the engine room. In this research, Bodrum Gulets, which are among the boats unique to Türkiye and produced with custom design and manufacturing processes, are discussed and it is aimed to examine the effects of the number of engines from the design and engineering perspectives. In this context, a total of 46 Bodrum Gulets were examined, and in line with the values obtained, selected parameters have been compared from the design and the engineering perspectives. While the engine room layout plans of the investigated yachts were used for comparison in terms of design, shaft angle was used in comparison in engineering-based evaluation. Moreover, investigated models’ resistance and consequently the power requirements have been compared with the installed engine powers. The results show that models with single main engine are advantageous in terms of requiring less height and consequently less space for the engine room and propulsion efficiency perspectives. The mean value for the ratio between the required height to the height of the engine is calculated as 1.428 for the single engine and 1.982 for the twin engine configuration. Moreover, the results show that the mean value of the shaft angle is 5.29 for single engine and 8.16 degrees for the twin engine configuration. Additionally, the study shows that there is a gap between the calculated power and the installed power, which causes over consumption especially for the twin-engine configuration for the Bodrum Gulets.
Limit analysis of earthquake-induced landslides considering two strength envelopes
Authors: Wu Di , Wang Yuke , Chen Xin
Published: December 2023

Abstract. Stability analysis of soil slopes undergoing earthquake remains an important research aspect. The earthquake may have some different effects on slope stabilities associated with nonlinear and linear criteria, which need to be further investigated. For homogeneous soil slopes undergoing earthquake, this paper established the three-dimensional (3D) failure mechanisms with the Power-Law strength envelope. The quasi-static method was employed to derive the work rate done by the earthquake in limit analysis theory. The critical heights and critical slip surfaces associated with nonlinear and linear criteria were obtained for four slope examples undergoing different seismic loads. Comparisons of the nonlinear and linear results illustrated that two critical inclinations (resulted from the overlap of nonlinear and linear results) both decrease as the seismic force increases, but their difference is almost constant. For steep slopes, the use of linear strength envelope can lead to the non-negligible overestimation of slope critical height. This overestimation will become significant with the increase of seismic force, especially for the steeper slope with a narrow width. Since the seismic force has positive influence on equivalent internal friction angle, the critical slip surface for the slope obeying nonlinear envelope tends to be slightly deeper as the earthquake becomes stronger. For steep soil slopes undergoing earthquake, the development of 3D stability analysis with nonlinear yield criterion is necessity and significant. These findings can provide some references for risk assessment and landslide disaster reduction of soil slopes.

Published: December 2023

Abstract. Positive tipping points are promising leverage points in social systems for accelerated progress towards climate and sustainability targets. Besides their impact in specific social systems such as energy, food, or social norms and values, positive tipping dynamics may in some cases spread across different systems, amplifying the impact of tipping interventions. However, the cross-system interactions that can create such tipping cascades are sparsely examined. Here, we review interactions across sociotechnical, -ecological, -economic and -political systems that can lead to tipping cascades based on the emerging and relevant past evidence. We show that there are several feedback mechanisms where a strategic input can trigger secondary impacts for a disproportionately large positive response, and various agents that can trigger such cascades. This review of cross-system interactions facilitates the quantification and analysis of positive tipping cascades in future studies.

Supply Chain Finance in SMEs A Conceptual Analysis
Authors: Mahaboob Basha H. Dr. Asifulla A.,
Published: December 2023

This paper addresses the relatively new concept of supply chain finance (SCF) and its application in SMEs. The flow of financial resources in supply chains is most important and has become the focus of study. As a result, the integration of finance and supply chain management has opened new business areas for banks as well as financial and logistics service providers. Supply Chain Finance solution can create a 'win-win' situation for both buyer and supplier. So this research article focuses on the study of supply chain finance (SCF) in SMEs.

Despite the fact that small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in India account for over 62 million jobs and approximately 30 percent of the country's GDP, the great majority of them lack access to affordable loans from traditional banks. They are so often left with little choice but to resort to informal lenders, who charge usurious interest rates in order to meet their borrowing demands. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are particularly vulnerable to the negative effects of the credit gap, which include but are not limited to higher costs, lower profits, slower growth, and a lack of resilience in the face of economic volatility (Iyer, 2021). Here, supply chain financing (SCF) could be helpful in bridging the trust gap by equipping lenders with more resources to manage credit risk and broadening the scope of financing to include vast pools of poorly understood MSMEs. SCF provides buyers and sellers with risk mitigation solutions based on technological advancements in order to reduce financing costs and increase company efficiency. Since SCF is still in its infancy, there is a pressing need to make this facility accessible to the vast majority of MSMEs so that they, in turn, can benefit from the positive effect it has on the performance of currently-adapted firms.
An Analysis of Factors Influencing the Competitiveness of China’s Financial Services Trade: Focused on RCEP Member Countries
Authors:   The Northeast Asia Economic Association Of Korea, Liu Ruiqing , Lee Hyukku
Published: December 2023

Against the backdrop of economic globalization and trade liberalization, financial services, as an emerging sector, have gradually become a focal point of attention for countries around the world. The development of financial services trade has accelerated the flow of capital between nations and effectively promoted global trade as well as the development of non-trade industries. This article, based on the background of the RCEP coming into effect, conducts a comparative analysis of the financial services trade competitiveness between China and RCEP member countries, and empirically studies the factors influencing China’s financial services trade competitiveness based on Porter’s Diamond Model.
This study first starts with the current status of financial services trade among RCEP member countries, comparing the competitiveness of China’s financial services trade with other RCEP member countries using three commonly used indicators for evaluating international trade competitiveness: market share (MS), trade competitiveness index (TC), and revealed comparative advantage index (RCA). Subsequently, based on Porter’s competitive advantage theory, an evaluation system is constructed from six aspects: factor conditions, demand conditions, related and supporting industries, government, enterprise organization strategy and competition, and opportunities. The regression model is constructed using data from 2006 to 2021 combined with the principal component analysis method to empirically analyze the factors influencing China’s financial services trade competitiveness. The analysis results show that China’s financial services trade international competitiveness is relatively weak among RCEP member countries, but it has shown a strong growth trend in recent years. The impact of fiscal policy on the competitiveness of financial services trade is the largest, followed by technological and related industry factors, while human capital has the smallest contribution to the competitiveness of financial services trade.
Based on the research results, in the future, China should strengthen the cultivation of talents in the financial services industry, promote consumer spending in the financial services sector, increase the capital and technological content of related financial industries, expand the scale of foreign capital utilization in the financial services industry, and improve the financial regulatory system to enhance China’s international competitiveness in financial services trade.
Police detainee perspectives on police body-worn cameras
Authors: Taylor Emmeline , Lee Murray , Willis Matthew , Gannoni Alexandra
Published: December 2023

Recent years have seen the introduction of police body-worn cameras (BWCs) in many countries. Despite the costs involved in purchasing equipment and storing the large amounts of data generated, there is a dearth of evidence to support their mainstream use as part of law enforcement activities. There remains little understanding about the impact and effectiveness of BWCs, and less still on how the police, members of the public and, importantly, arrestees perceive and experience the cameras. In this study, 899 adult police detainees were interviewed about their perceptions and experiences of police BWCs through the Drug Use Monitoring in Australia (DUMA) program. Findings suggest that police detainees in Australia are largely supportive of the use of police BWCs, but this was predicated on a number of operational and procedural requirements. The findings have implications for the use of BWCs as an everyday part of policing apparatus.

Published: December 2023

Alcohol abuse causes more than three million deaths a year, or one in twenty, more than three-quarters of them men. Alcohol abuse accounts for over 5% of the global burden of disease. In this context, objective clinical and biochemical tests are essential to characterize drinking patterns, quantify the amount of ethanol ingested daily and enable effective management of these patients. We recently investigated the feasibility and benefits of measuring phosphatidylethanol (PEth) in daily medical practice for the management of alcohol dependence in the outpatient setting. We report the results of a quantification of palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-glycero-3-phosphoethanol (PEth 16:0/18:1) in comparison with biological indicators (SGOT, SGPT GGT) on a group of volunteers followed as outpatients for alcohol problems. Methods: In this prospective study, a total population of 57 volunteers consulting a private addictology practice was recruited for PEth tests, 21 of which were complemented by biological tests including SGOT, SGPT GGT assays. A file was completed specifying the methods of alcohol use, the quantities consumed (AU) and the Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test (AUDIT) score. Blood samples are collected in a 10 µL drop, using a medical device (VAMS from Neoteryx, USA), air-dried. The dry samples are extracted and reconstituted with methanol. The analyzes carried out by high pressure liquid chromatography coupled with high resolution mass spectrometry. Results and discussion: 57 volunteers (19 F and 38 M) aged between 20 and 70 were included. These volunteers had the Quantities consumed (AU/d) at 6.7 (0-20) and the Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test (AUDIT) score at 17.8 (0-30). A strong positive correlation of 0.88 (n=57) was observed between PEth concentrations and levels of daily alcohol consumption. The usual biology, the "hepatic assessment" provides little or no information on the risks associated with alcohol consumption with correlation coefficient estimated at 0.28 for GGT, 0.09 for SGOT and 0.00 for SGPT. PEth degradation was 13% for samples stored at room temperature, compared with those stored at +4°C and -80°C. Conclusion: PEth is a specific and proportional marker of alcohol consumption. Measuring PEth enables us to accurately gauge the reality of alcohol consumption and adapt it to care and prevention contexts. This measurement of phosphatidylethanol (PEth) can be carried out as part of a consultation, at a distance from the analysis centers. Finally, the PEth, along with the interpretation tools described in this article, is an important help in the management of alcohol dependence.

Problems related to antibiotic resistance are getting higher every time. Therefore, studies related to the exploration of new sources of antibiotics are very important to do. One source of antibiotics that has the potential to be utilized is derived from Streptomyces sp. This bacteria belongs to the Gram-positive bacteria of the Streptomycetaceae family which has the ability to produce enzyme and antibiotic is often found in natural soils. This study aims to explore the bacteria Streptomyces sp. in grassland vegetation and tropical rain forests in the jungle zone in the Alas Purwo National Park Area East Java Indonesia and tested its ability to inhibit the growth of Escherichia coli O157:H7. Sampling in this study was carried out in two different vegetation areas of the Alas Purwo National Park. The first vegetation is Sadengan grassland and the second is forest in the jungle zone. Soil samples were taken for each type of vegetation at five points. To isolate Streptomyces sp. used pour plate method with selective media YEMA (Yeast Extract Malt Agar). Bacterial isolates suspected as Streptomyces sp. and different from one another are separated to be re-isolated and identified macroscopically and microscopically Seung and Good fellow (2002). Twenty Streptomyces sp. isolates were successfully isolated from 2 vegetations. The highest inhibition was Streptomyces sp. O (2.725 cm) against Escherchia coli O157:H7, while the one with the lowest inhibition was Streptomyces sp .G (0.542 cm). In the future, after carrying out molecular tests, Streptomyces sp.O can be used as an alternative new antibiotics to combat pathogenic bacteria.

Published: December 2023

Kadapa is a town in the Rayalaseema area of southern side of state Andhra Pradesh, India, commonly known as the key-part of Rayalaseema. It serves as the important business centre in YSR district. The city had a population of 344,078 according to the 2011 Indian census. It’s approximately 8.0 kilometres (5.0 miles) south of the Penna River. Due to unpredictable and uncertain rains, the Kadapa is a drought prone area; in fact, more than 75% of the mandal is a drought area. As a result, the government declared droughtprone areas not just in mandals, but also in urban areas with more than ten panchayats facing drinking water shortages. As a result of the aforementioned circumstances, the government of Andhra Pradesh created the Galeru Nagari Sujala Sravanthi Project [GNSS] project for water supply in drought prone area. A field experiment was planned and conducted during the Rabi season of 2019-20 at agricultural research centre, school of agricultural sciences, SGRRU, Dehradun Uttarakhand, to investigate the “Effect of macronutrients on the growth and yield of Rapeseed/toria”. The experiment was laid out in randomized block design with three replication and 8 treatments. Treatments constituted viz. Sulphur (Basal application). Sulphur (Foliar application), Sulphur (Basal+Foliar application), NPK (Basal) + Ca Mg:S (Basal), NPK(Basal) + Ca Mg S(Foliar), NPK(Foliar)+ Ca Mg S (Foliar) .70 kg/ha NPK with the recommended dose of 40:30:30,18 kg/ha Ca, 6kg/ha Mg. 40kg/ha S used in different doses in all treatments. The crop variety PR 2006 (Pant Rai 19) was shown on November 15, 2019 and harvested on March 25, 2020. Observation on various growth parameters, field attributes and yield were recorded. The seed and stover samples at harvest were collected; finally the economics of different treatments were worked out. Fertilizer management treatments significantly influenced various growth parameters, yield attributes and yield of mustard. Plant height, number of branches per plant, number of leaves per plant, number of siliqua/plant, number of seeds/siliquae yield recorded had significantly higher values under treatment T6 (NPK (Foliar) + Ca Mg S (Foliar) followed by T5-NPK (Basal)+ Ca:Mg:S (Foliar application) and T4- NPK (Basal)+Ca Mg:S ( Basal) NPK (Foliar)+ Ca: Mg S(Foliar) T6 though recorded maximum seed yield (1875 kg/ha) but was statistical at par with NPK(Basal)+Ca:Mg S (Foliar) (1748kg/ha) and was significantly superior over remaining treatments. The treatment shows significantly high yield and plant growth in which all macronutrients are used as foliar application.

A field trial was conducted on a sandy clay loam soil during rabi seasons of 2020-21 and 2021-22 at the Agricultural College Farm, Bapatla to investigate the residual effect of maize crop residue management techniques and fertilizer levels on growth and productivity of zerotill maize in rice-maize sequence. The experiment was laid out in split-split plot design with four maize crop residue management practices (M1 : Exportation of maize stover, M2 : In-situ burning of maize stover (farmers practice), M3 : Mulching maize stover with rotary mulcher and M4 : Incorporation of maize stover with rotovator) as main plot treatments and three fertility levels (100% RDF, 75% RDF and 50% RDF) as sub plot treatments applied to kharif preceded rice and three fertility levels (100% RDF, 75% RDF and 50% RDF) as sub-sub plot levels applied to succeeding maize. Results revealed that incorporation of maize stover with rotovator (M4 ) applied to preceding rice significantly improved plant height (cm), days to 50% tasseling and 50% silking, cob length (cm), cob girth (cm), test weight (g) and grain yield of maize. Mean values for fertiliser levels revealed that plant height (cm), days to 50% tasseling and 50% silking, cob length (cm), cob girth (cm), test weight (g) and grain yield were registered with application of 100% RDF (S1 ) applied to preceding rice and application of 100% RDF applied to succeeding maize. Thus, incorporation of maize stover with rotovator (M4 ) along with application of 100 % RDF applied to preceding rice and application of 100% RDF (S1 ) to succeeding maize is an optimum and sustainable approach to enhance the growth and productivity of zero till maize in rice-maize system.

In the present research, the sonication impact of various intensities, temperatures and exposure durations of ultrasound on finger millet grains was examined to identify the most effective conditions for accelerating germination. The study employed the central composite random design for optimization and compared the germination rates and yield of treated seeds with those of untreated seeds grown under normal conditions. During the experiment, the seeds were subjected to ultrasonic energy with input power levels ranging from 40% to 100% of 230 W. Additionally, they were exposed to three different time durations, varying from 8 to 18 minutes and different temperatures i.e., 30-60 °C. The results revealed that the germination of treated finger millet increased by approximately 1-14% compared to the untreated seeds. Furthermore, the ultrasonic treatment significantly reduced the germination period by 7-38% particularly at high temperature. These findings strongly suggest that priming the seeds with ultrasound was highly effective in enhancing water uptake and germination.

Perda e desperdício de alimentos em Unidades de Alimentação e Nutrição: proposta de ferramenta para gestão
Authors: Zaro Marcelo , Lanzer Rosane Maria , De Conto Suzana Maria , Camargo Maria Emilia
Published: December 2023

Estudos relacionados à perda e ao desperdício de alimentos em empreendimentos gastronômicos são importantes e necessários para analisar o desempenho ambiental, social e econômico desse setor. Neste sentido, um nicho de mercado tem despontado: o de Unidades de Alimentação e Nutrição (UANs) que oferecem serviços mais sustentáveis. No entanto, não existem normativas ou mesmo ferramentas de gestão específicas que permitam mensurar o quão sustentável é uma UAN no controle de PDA. Partindo da perspectiva de avaliação do impacto de ciclo de vida (AICV), este trabalho apresenta uma proposta de ferramenta de gestão e de comparação do desempenho de Unidades de Alimentação e Nutrição comerciais quanto ao controle de perda e desperdício de alimentos ao longo do processo produtivo. A AICV é uma etapa qualitativa da avaliação de ciclo de vida (ACV), a qual permite avaliar os impactos ambientais potenciais de uma atividade, processo, produto ou serviço. Com base em fatores identificados na literatura que possuem relação com PDA, foi realizada uma pesquisa com 14 consultores ad hoc com formação em Nutrição, com conhecimento especializado no tema tratado e/ou vivência prática em UANs. Numa escala de 1 a 10, os participantes foram solicitados a realizar a ponderação dos fatores quanto a sua facilidade de detecção e solução e sua gravidade. Como resultado, foi gerada uma planilha com 64 fatores a serem monitorados em UANs que fornece resultados numéricos que variam conforme a eficiência dos empreendimentos no controle da PDA. Trata-se de um instrumento versátil que permite adaptações de acordo com o tipo de serviço de alimentação oferecido, e que pode tornar menos subjetiva a comparação entre diferentes UANs e seus processos.
Diderot e “a mais antiga das guerras”
Authors: Pimenta Pedro Paulo
Published: December 2023

O artigo pretende examinar o significado da expressão “a mais antiga das guerras”, empregada por Diderot no Suplemento à viagem de Bougainville para se referir ao conflito entre o homem e outros animais predadores, inserindo-a na tradição hobbesiana, na qual o estado de natureza é representado a partir de uma analogia entre os homens e esses mesmos animais. Pretende-se mostrar que, em ambas essas teorias, o móbile dessas guerras não é a necessidade, mas o desejo.
O racismo de Hume por Hume
Authors: Limongi Maria Isabel
Published: December 2023

O artigo trata da famosa nota do ensaio Dos Caracteres Nacionais, na qual Hume afirma suspeitar que os negros são inferiores aos brancos. No lugar de perguntar o quanto o racismo expresso na nota penetra na obra, como se costuma fazer, coloca-se outra questão: o que Hume tem a dizer sobre o conteúdo da nota, levando em conta seu contexto de enunciação? Como ele situa no ensaio Dos Caracteres nacionais o seu próprio racismo? A partir de uma análise do ensaio e da nota, pretende-se mostrar que a filosofia de Hume oferece os elementos e os conceitos precisos para que se compreenda o conteúdo da nota como um preconceito europeu.

Hobbes sensualista: uma leitura diderotiana da Natureza humana
Authors: Castro Clara Carnicero de
Published: December 2023

O sensualismo é comumente atribuído a Condillac. O tratado sobre a Natureza humana (1650) de Hobbes traz, porém, um século antes do Tratado das sensações (1754) de Condillac, as marcas mais características dessa corrente filosófica: o desenvolvimento das faculdades e das operações mentais unicamente por meio das sensações, de modo que todo pensamento seja algum tipo de modificação da sensação. A Natureza humana foi traduzida para o francês por d'Holbach em 1772, proporcionando uma sorte de revelação hobbesiana em Diderot. Ainda que a teoria da sensibilidade do enciclopedista não apresente traços explícitos do tratado de Hobbes, este contribui para o melhor entendimento daquela. Com isso em vista, proponho fazer uma leitura de quatro capítulos (I-III; VII) da Natureza humana, sob uma ótica diderotiana. Pretendo mostrar que, de um lado, Hobbes é sensualista e, de outro, seu sensualismo tem uma perspectiva vitalista graças a um sistema duplo da sensibilidade, cujos centros (cérebro e coração) se mantém numa contínua interação.
Sociedade do Cansaço e a Invisibilidade do infoproletariado: as fronteiras éticas que as novas tecnologias impõem a classe trabalhadora
Authors: Maika Leonardo Silveira
Published: December 2023

Resumo: Nas últimas décadas, a transformação da economia e do mercado de trabalho tem despertado questionamentos éticos relacionados ao advento e à prevalência das novas tecnologias. Neste cenário, destaca-se a emergência do "infoproletariado", uma classe trabalhadora cada vez mais subjugada à lógica do trabalho digital e da economia do conhecimento. Paralelamente, essa transformação se dá em um contexto de "sociedade do cansaço", onde o ritmo acelerado e incessante das atividades produtivas impõe um esgotamento físico e mental às pessoas. Este artigo pretende explorar a interseção desses três conceitos: o infoproletariado, a sociedade do cansaço e a ética das novas tecnologias. Discutiremos as implicações da crescente digitalização do trabalho, a sobrecarga cognitiva e emocional dos trabalhadores, e as questões éticas decorrentes da automação e da exploração da força de trabalho neste contexto. Compreender essa complexa rede de relações é crucial para repensar práticas de trabalho mais justas e sustentáveis na era digital. Palavras-chave: Trabalho; Infoproletariado; Inteligência Artificial; Ética; Sociedade do Cansaço; Capitalismo; Economia.
Do crepúsculo dos ídolos à adoração do cotidiano: ciberespaço e idealização do mundo virtual
Authors: Costa Adriano Martins das Dores
Published: December 2023

Resumo: O avanço da internet propiciou uma situação em que a visibilidade que alguns indivíduos, grupos e entidades alcançam dentro de determinados círculos, e até mesmo em todo o globo, tem chegado a níveis de idolatria e reverência que só podem ser comparadas a um culto, uma religião ou seita. Essa construção de significados é processada através da chamada “autocomunicação de massa”, termo cunhado por Manuel Castells, na qual os próprios indivíduos estabelecem quem possui algum tipo de poder. E são essas novas relações midiáticas que constroem novos ídolos para adoração, elevados da noite para o dia da condição de mortais a deuses. O que se pretende apresentar neste texto é como a Teoria do Mundo Ideal de Platão explica a criação de um novo paraíso, um local idílico e perfeito dentro da internet e como, neste “novo céu”, os usuários da rede estão entronizando esses novos deuses e, consequentemente, prestando sua adoração, alimentando e dando poder a esse panteão forjado a partir de likes. Em contraposição a essa situação, iremos entender como a proposta da inversão das ideias de Platão, idealizada por Nietzsche, pode nos ajudar a compreender este fenômeno social e, quem sabe, superar esta idolatria. Palavras chaves: Platão; Mundo Ideal; Ciberespaço; Redes Sociais; Nietzsche.
O monstro e o robô: considerações sobre o organismo e a máquina em Canguilhem e Simondon
Authors: Kritski Pedro Mateo Bàez
Published: December 2023

Este artigo tem como objetivo principal analisar o pensamento desenvolvido por Georges Canguilhem e Gilbert Simondon sobre dois conceitos principais: o conceito de organismo e de máquina. A intenção é de reconstruir, a partir das continuidades e descontinuidades entre os dois conceitos, o raciocínio desenvolvido pelos dois autores sobre esses temas na história da filosofia francesa do século passado. Assim, tomamos como escopo as obras La connaissance de la vie, publicada por Canguilhem em 1952 e a tese complementar de doutoramento de Simondon, orientada por Canguilhem, Du mode d’existence des objets techniques, de 1958. A partir disso, o texto se divide em seis partes: uma introdução, onde damos as especificações de escopo e de análise, seguida pela primeira parte, onde analisamos os conceitos de pensamento, conhecimento, sujeito e objeto. Em seguida, na parte dois, analisamos os conceitos de máquina, mecanismo e motor, como utilizadas em Canguilhem, e os conceitos de indivíduo, elemento e conjunto técnico desenvolvidas por Simondon. A terceira parte se dedica a analisar a questão do autômato, bem como os conceitos de mecanismo e finalismo. A quarta parte desenvolve o conceito de organismo-máquina e os conceitos de potencialidade e de teleologia desenvolvidos principalmente em Canguilhem. Por fim, na conclusão, analisamos as aproximações e distâncias entre os dois autores, bem como a imagem do monstro e do robô.

Assessing the Contribution of Women-Led NGOs to Gender Equality and Empowerment in Kenya: Challenges, Successes, and Future Prospects
Authors:   Management University of Africa (MUA), Tsuma Dorothy Medza
Published: December 2023

The critical role of women-led Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs) in advancing gender equality and empowerment in Kenya is undeniable, as they address issues like gender-based violence, educational disparities, and economic inequalities. This study reviewed the contributions of these NGOs in Kenya, focusing on their challenges, successes, and future prospects. It employed a systematic methodology, combining a positivist research philosophy with a desktop review design, to analyze existing literature and draw conclusions. The findings revealed that women-led NGOs have been instrumental in creating safe spaces for women, advocating for legal reforms, and implementing community-based programs for economic and social empowerment. These efforts have led to notable improvements in Kenyan women's lives, contributing to a gradual shift towards gender equality. However, the study also highlights significant challenges faced by these NGOs, including limited financial and human resources, societal and cultural barriers, and a fluctuating political and policy environment. Studies reviewed indicated the effectiveness of women-led Community-Based Rice Seed Entrepreneurship Models (CBRSEM) in enhancing women's skills and livelihoods, but also point out operational challenges such as high production costs and the need for agricultural tools. The study found that women's self-mobilization and movements in Kenya have shown to be vital in economic empowerment, evolving from informal associations to significant entities in agribusiness and NGOs. Moreover, educational programs have been effective in shaping adolescents' attitudes towards gender equality, suggesting the integration of gender studies in early education curricula. The study concludes that women-led NGOs in Kenya play a pivotal role in promoting gender equality, yet face persistent struggles with resource limitations and societal resistance. Their future success depends on sustainable funding, robust networks and collaborations, technological leverage, and societal mindset shifts towards gender-sensitive attitudes. Therefore, recommendations include increasing financial support, building robust networks, working towards changing societal norms, utilizing technology and social media, strengthening internal capacity, and engaging in policy advocacy.
