NASTANAK I RAZVOJ TURIZMA U FRANCUSKOJ
Authors:   University of Kragujevac, Faculty of Law, Marinković Milica
Published: July 2023

The author gives an overview of the origin and development of tourism as a cultural and economic phenomenon. Tourism in France was created not only by internal factors, but also by external factors. English travelers from high society were pioneers of pleasure travel, and their favorite destination was precisely France. The first part of the paper concerns the very beginnings of tourism in the 18th century. The tourism of that time did not resemble today's neither in terms of numbers nor in terms of the main tourist attractions. The goal of tourist trips was either to use the beneficial effects of spa and sea waters or to spend the winter in a warmer climate. The second part of the paper deals with the further development of tourism in the 19th century. Thanks to the synergy of romantic ideals of nature and the development of the transport network, France is becoming an increasingly important tourist destination for travelers from both Europe and America. The final part of the paper gives a brief overview of the massification of tourism in France in the 20th century.

Due to the wide range of their beneficiaries and the fact that without them it is not possible for one social community to normally function and even exist, public interest services represent the most important type of services. One of the conditions for their uninterrupted delivery is also to ensure location for construction of objects and for their core activity, which is a difficult task especially in cities and densely inhabited places where there are not many free land lots. This turns into particularly large issue when delivery of these services requires one and specific type of immovable asset which is someone’s private ownership. The only solution for these situations, where there is a conflict of general and individual interest, is to apply expropriation institute which then becomes precondition for public interest services. Therefore, subject of this paper is elaboration of solutions for expropriation in the domestic law, through the analysis of the following segments of this institute: notion, subjects, types, development, functions and elements of expropriation (object, public interest, expropriation procedure and compensation). In the concluding part of the paper, the author summarises results of her analysis, indicating coherence between expropriation and public interest services.

Authors:   University of Kragujevac, Faculty of Law, Vladetić Srđan
Published: July 2023

At the time when his reign has coming to the end Tiberius built a huge temple, dedicated to his father - the Devine Augustus. In that temple he also established a library. Until now, no material evidence, that would be helpful in the determination of the exact location of the temple and the library, as well as in the determination of their size and appearance, have been reviled. Assumptions about those facts, as well as about internal organization of the library, its collections, accessibility of collection to the general public and users and services that have been provided in the library, can be made only on the basis of several sources found in the litarature where templum divi Augusti and its library were mentioned.

The article analyzes the rules contained in EU Regulation 2022/1925, which are intended to ensure contestable and fair market in the digital sector. To that end, legislator introduced rules which enable digital service provider to acquire the status of the so-called gatekeeper, provided that certain criteria have been met. The gatekeeper needs to comly with a series of obligations in relation to business users and end users of respective core digital platform services (the list of core services is given in the Regulation) which are specified in the designation decision. All those obligations, which ensure contestability and fairness of the digital market, may be divided into two groups depending on the way they are defined: negative, which impose ban for gatekeeper from engaging in certain activities, and positive, which oblige gatekeeper to allow or grant certain conduct. If there are justified reasons, the gatekeeper can be completely or partially released from a certain obligation, by passing an act on suspension or exemption.
AVATARI KAO PRUŽAOCI USLUGA: MEĐUNARODNOPRAVNI ASPEKTI
Authors:   University of Kragujevac, Faculty of Law, Dakić Dragan
Published: July 2023

We will consider in this paper the legal issues associated to the use of avatars in service provision procedures. Namely, the service sector is constantly searching for process optimization and increasing efficiency, and avatars can be used to provide a wide range of services in both the public and private sectors. Their advantages are numerous and some of them are the increase in efficiency and internal process optimization, the elimination of human errors, corruption and fraud, the possibility of providing more accessible and inclusive services with a high degree of personalization. In the European Union, artificial intelligence and avatars are used in the provision of three levels of services in the public sector, namely those of an economic, non-economic and social nature. In Serbia, we already see avatars as service providers of customer services in the public sector in the form of so-called chatbots, e.g. to assist taxpayers with various tax matters, such as filing tax returns, paying taxes and obtaining tax forms through the IRS website or for information regarding enrollment, scholarships and other education-related matters through the Ministry of Education bot, of science and technological development of Serbia. Certainly, the benefits of using these systems were first noticed by the private sector in areas such as e-marketing and e-sales. Considering the technical characteristics and purpose, avatars whose functioning is based on reactive, weak VI with limited memory are on a legal level with slightly more advanced mediums for delivering pre- typed information or ordering goods whose function is thereby exhausted. Because of the above, general or special regulations that regulate the circulation of the services and goods in question are relevant for all related issues. In contrast to this, the legal situation arising from the use of avatars whose functioning is based on intelligent, strong, super VI is much more complex because it opens up numerous issues such as those related to privacy protection and informed consent, but also status issues of the VI itself, which is why the spectrum of authoritative of legal regulations is much wider here. After the introductory clarifications of the research subject and the current situation in the development of the regulatory framework, in the next part of the paper we will consider some of the general legal challenges of the use of VIs that are also transposed to avatars. In this part of the paper, we will also present the main regulatory frameworks that seek to legally regulate the issue of the use of VI. After defining the general challenges and regulatory frameworks, we make the discussion concrete by considering issues that are directly relevant to the legal aspects of the use of avatars. In this part of the paper, we proposed the definition of this entity and explained the legal significance of its elements. The potential risks of using avatars in the virtual space and metaverse are presented, while ways to overcome them are also discussed.
SLOBODAN PRISTUP INFORMACIJA OD JAVNOG ZNAČAJA I MEDIJSKE USLUGE
Authors:   University of Kragujevac, Faculty of Law, Vučković Jelena
Published: July 2023

The author believes that the media have a duty to provide information and inform the public about all issues of public interest. It can also be considered that media information by the nature of "media matters" is information of public interest, and media services are "services to the public". Media services contain information of public interest in the essential material sense because the editorial control of the media assesses that the public has the idea to (sa)know about certain information. The paper points out that journalists in the provision of media services have the right to access information of public importance. However, their professional knowledge, experience and responsibility puts them in a special position in cases where public authorities deny the right of access to information with the argument that they have a certain level of secrecy. Media requests that responsible persons of public authorities, the Commissioner and other participants in such "cases" give their comments and express their views and opinions, further focus, raise and "warm up" the attention of the public, giving this information the character of information of public importance in the essential sense. At the same time, professional and responsible media informing the public about such "prohibited" documents, cases and secret information is an additional argument. which may contribute to the application of the "test of public interest" that applicants of the right to free access to information of public importance finally exercise their right. The author also points out the possible situations of "leaking" of secret information and even business secrets through the media, but also to the current regulations in the Republic of Serbia and the EU this matter that broadly covers and resolves such situations.

Authors:   University of Kragujevac, Faculty of Law, Živojinović Dragica
Published: July 2023

Harvesting the organs of the deceased is the primary source of procuring human organs adequate for transplantation. Therefore, the key issue that needs to be regulated in transplantation laws is the donor's consent for post-mortem harvesting of organs for the purpose of transplantation. In this paper, the author analyzes two dominant models of donor's consent in contemporary European legislation as a condition for permitted harvesting of the deceased person's organs – the model of express consent and the model of presumed consent, as well as the model of consent that has been adopted in Serbian law. The author's interest also revolves around other potential solutions: the mixed model, the system in which the harvesting of organs is justified by the necessity in emergency situations and the concept of mandatory choice. In this paper the author points to the advantages and weaknesses of each model and reviews how the regulations tackle the issue whether the lack of donor's consent for post-mortem harvesting of his organs can be replaced with the consent of family members. In the concluding remarks, the author presents the arguments why the models of express consent is a more acceptable option and argues that the choice of the donor's consent model is not crucial for increasing the number of organ donors, but rather the action coming from several levels aimed at raising the awarness of citizens of the significance of organ donation.
Herman Melville’s Ecological Vision and the Limits of Language
Authors: Barron Brie
Published: July 2023

When Herman Melville began writing, publishing his first work in 1846, he joined an illustrious group of American authors defining American literature. Five years later in 1851, as he wrote what would become his best-known work, Moby-Dick, or The Whale, Melville began working to express a scientific understanding of the world beyond what language would allow. This led to Melville’s greatest writing experiment: to write beyond the limitations of language. Through his intimate relationship with the written word and a sustained effort to reproduce in language his ecological philosophy, Melville tried to mold language into an instrument of his will. He strove to represent how humans experience the world but found himself limited by language’s capacity for illustration; instead, he would have to write how humans experience the world. This “how” is evidenced in the poetics of three of Melville’s stories: Moby-Dick, “Bartleby, the Scrivener: A Tale of Wall Street,” and “Billy Budd, Sailor: An Inside Narrative.” In “Billy Budd, Sailor,” his final work, published posthumously, Melville successfully frees himself from the “oppressive totality of language” (Delbanco, 1993, p. 5), having evolved his writing past the need for language—something akin to what the German philosopher Martin Heidegger will later call “undergoing an experience with language” (1971, p. 57). To fully grasp the nature of this ultra-linguistic literary feat, this essay analyzes the evolution of Melville’s writing styles and poetics through the lenses of scientific, linguistic, and Heideggerian philosophy, in effect understanding Melville’s most ambitious undertaking through the discourses that came after him.

Published: July 2023

Background: The Sino nasal tract and para nasal sinuses, in spite of being an anatomically smaller region, have a complex variety of lesions ranging from non- neoplastic to neoplastic. The purpose of this study was to classify various types of non- neoplastic and neoplastic lesions presenting as sinonasal masses at Gajanan ENT Hospital and management of these cases. Methodology: Patients with sinonasal masses, diagnosed at the institute, were included in the study. Previously treated cases, congenital lesions were excluded. Study factors were demographics, diagnostic nasal endoscopy, CT scan PNS, MRI with contrast and histopathology. The data was presented as descriptive statistics with comparing the diagnosis on DNE, CT scan PNS, MRI and histopathology. Diagnosis on histopathological examination was considered to be definitive. Results: A total of 80 patients were included in the study. Demographic data showed equal female and male predominance, with most patients from age group 31-40 years. Nasal obstruction was the most common presenting symptom. 56 patients had non-neoplastic lesions; 20 patients had neoplastic benign lesions while 4 patients had neoplastic malignant lesions. Conclusion: Large number of patients present with different symptoms but need careful examination and appropriate diagnosis. Clinical suspicion and appropriate investigations can guide in timely intervention and management of these patients reducing the morbidity and mortality in these patients. Treatment is to be individualised. Few cases with extensive diseases were managed by medial maxillectomy & Draf 3 procedure.

Rickettsia is a group of vector-borne organisms that beget acute febrile illnesses throughout the world. While the clinical presentation of rickettsial infection is analogous, the causative species and epidemiology can vary depending upon the region. Purpura fulminans (PF) is a rare pattern of intravascular thrombosis and haemorrhagic infarction of the skin that is fleetly progressive and is accompanied by vascular collapse and disseminated intravascular coagulation. We report a case of 11 month old male child presented with high grade fever and necrotic skin lesion over lower limbs. The child was diagnosed with acute contagious PF secondary to Indian tick typhus of spotted fever group of rickettsial infections. Underdiagnosed and misdiagnosed rickettsial infections are an important public health problem leading to an increased morbidity and mortality in cases with PF.

Indonesia’s population is expected to grow by 68% by 2050, with the government aiming to improve living conditions and promote economic expansion. The Million Homes Program will determine the nation’s future. Islamic banks offer mortgage financing options, including Musharakah, Murabahah, and Ijarah contracts. These contracts require a thorough risk assessment and understanding of each party’s responsibilities. The study aims to determine the ideal contract for Islamic bank mortgages, allowing developers to advise clients on their use before purchasing subsidized homes. The authors used contracts called Murabahah and Musharakah to calculate financing, but found that the equivalent rates on each contract varied, raising concerns about the amount of finance developers and buyers need to provide. The Time Value of Money technique was employed to calculate the cost difference between the Murabaha and Musharakah contracts. The results suggest that customers may choose Bank Syariah B or Bank Syariah A based on lower equivalent rates and stability. With a margin of 67.79% in the Musharakah contract, Bank Syariah B can be chosen with an equivalent rate of 7.5% for the first 13 years, 10.1% on the 14th year, and then falling back to 10.1% on the 15th year.

Recently, there has been a growing interest in online marketing within the healthcare industry, including dental care. Utilizing the internet and social media platforms has become crucial for reaching the target audience effectively. While positive word-of-mouth remains significant for dental clinics, having a strong online presence and an appealing website can greatly contribute to attracting new patients. Bandung Dental Centre aims to enhance its services and compete with other clinics through digital marketing. The general manager of Bandung Dental Centre expressed dissatisfaction with the clinic’s performance, observing a decline in the number of patients which has resulted in stagnant revenue growth. The author conducted a survey among 52 customers to evaluate the influence of the internet and social media on their decision to visit dental clinics. The survey results highlight customer service as the most influential variable, while the clinic’s reputation and dentists had a negative impact on customers. Therefore, these aspects require evaluation and improvement. The author provides recommendations to enhance Bandung Dental Centre’s digital marketing strategy, including Instagram Optimization, SEO improvement, Google Maps optimization, and the possibility of hiring a digital marketing agency. Furthermore, an implementation plan was developed to guide BDC staff in executing these strategies, even without a specific budget for hiring a digital marketing agency.

Published: July 2023

Procurement of Goods / Services carried out by the Ministry / Institution / Regional Apparatus as needed in order to support their duties and functions. The goods/services procurement process includes two components, namely the user of goods/services (Ministry/Institution/Regional Apparatus) and the Goods/Services Provider. Goods/services users and goods/services providers are bound in a Goods/Services Procurement Contract. The Goods/Services Procurement Contract is usually standardized, where the Procurement Contract is made by one party, namely the Commitment Making Officer (PPK) and the service provider is only a signing party. The different position between the goods/services user and the goods/services provider in the standard goods/services procurement contract causes the distribution of rights and obligations between the parties to be unbalanced or does not reflect the principle of proportionality.

Published: July 2023

O cloro molecular está presente nos processos atmosféricos e fotoquímicos. Esta molécula possui inúmeras aplicações, tais como agente de branqueamento para papel, solventes clorados para purificação de água e outros processos químicos, incluindo produtos farmacêuticos. Neste trabalho, determinou-se o tempo de vida do estado fundamental e dos estados excitados da molécula de cloro. Para tanto, foi utilizada a teoria de Slater, que consiste em uma formulação totalmente dinâmica, com uma análise vibracional completa do sistema molecular. Essa teoria foi implementada através de simulações computacionais realizadas na linguagem fortran. A energia de dissociação, a frequência de vibração e o primeiro nível de energia rovibracional dos  estados eletrônicos da molécula de cloro foram obtidos a partir de cálculos relativísticos de quatro componentes. Os resultados encontrados mostram que essa molécula é altamente estável, justificando assim seu alto uso na indústria.

A inserção do ensino de reanimação cardiopulmonar (RCP) nas escolas pode ser um contributo para a formação de futuros cidadãos com capacidade para prestar a assistência necessária em caso de uma parada cardiorrespiratória (PCR), além de servirem como veiculadores e multiplicadores de informações sobre esse conteúdo. Partindo desse contexto, esta pesquisa tem como finalidade investigar o uso da metodologia da problematização no ensino de reanimação cardiopulmonar (RCP) e como sua utilização poderia contribuir no processo de ensino e aprendizagem desse tema. Objetiva-se analisar os contributos da metodologia da problematização no ensino de reanimação cardiopulmonar para a aprendizagem de primeiros socorros entre alunos dos cursos de Tecnologia em Agroindústria, Tecnologia em Gastronomia e Técnico em Alimentos do Campus Ubajara, do Instituto Federal de Educação Ciência e Tecnologia do Ceará (IFCE). Trata-se de uma pesquisa de abordagem qualitativa de caráter exploratório. A metodologia consistiu na aplicação de questionários abertos semiestruturados aos participantes e para processamento dos dados utilizou-se o software IRAMUTEQ. Como resultado, constatou-se que a metodologia utilizada em aulas anteriores sobre o ensino de RCP estava deficitário, e, a partir das sugestões dos participantes, foi proposto o uso de uma nova metodologia de ensino. Como conclusão, pôde-se perceber que o uso da metodologia da problematização pode contribuir com o processo de ensino e aprendizagem sobre a temática. Para tal, foi proposto como produto educacional um manual didático sobre RCP contextualizada com a metodologia da problematização.

Authors: Abdulsalam Nasir Naeem  , John Florence Oluwabukola  , Ologe Oluwatoyin
Published: July 2023

Airborne magnetic and radiometric data set over part of Nasarawa, North central Nigeria have been enhanced and interpreted qualitatively. Attributes maps (first and second vertical derivative; and analytic signal maps) from the total magnetic intensity map (TMI) were used to delineate near-surface structures hosting sedimentary rocks forming minerals and differentiate regions based on amplitude responses. The structure trends NE-SW, NW-SE, E-W and N-S directions and the area is predominantly underlain by basement and sedimentary outcrops in the northeastern/western, central portion and southern parts respectively. The total cout map showed the low, moderate and high levels ranged from 6.40 to 14.70 ?R/h, 13.31 to 16.66 ?R/h and 18.02 to 41.23 ?R/h respectively. The Potassium concentration revealed the lowest concentration level (0.02-0.0.16%), moderate level (0.17-0.47%) and highest concentration of (18–27%). The lowest concentration level in the eTh map is related to siltstones and sandstones (Ansh), shale and mudstones (Nsh) and sandstone. The highest level reaches 31.35 ppm in volcanics rocks. The equivalent Uranium concentration map (eU) indicates that the high level of uranium concentration is associated with the black shales, siltstones and sandstones (Ansh) while shale and mudstones (Nsh), sandstones, shale and sandy clay (LaSS), sandstones (Ess), shale and limestones (Esh) and alluvium deposition has the lowest one. The potassium thorium ratio map shows zones characterized by the high K/eTh ratio values that are strong indicators of hydrothermal alteration. From the K/eTh ratio map, it can be observed that the areas affected by the hydrothermal process are featured in pink colour and have a high value of 0.37 in the K/eTh ratio which is an indication of gold mineralisation.

A Rinite Alérgica é uma patologia de elevada prevalência na população global. Está associada a comprometimento da capacidade laboral e da qualidade de vida dos indivíduos acometidos. Em sua fisiopatologia destaca-se a participação de forças oxidantes e do sistema protetor antioxidante. O objetivo central do presente estudo foi analisar o perfil oxidativo de pacientes portadores de Rinite Alérgica Persistente, relacionando à sua classificação clínica (leve ou moderada-severa). Trata-se de um estudo do tipo transversal, com coleta de dados realizada durante atendimentos clínicos ocorridos entre 09/2021 e 02/2022 na Divisão de Saúde da Universidade Federal de Viçosa. Após a estratificação clínica de pacientes previamente diagnosticados foi realizada uma coleta de sangue periférico para determinação dos parâmetros hematológicos e para avaliação espectrofotométrica dos marcadores relacionados ao perfil oxidativo. A análise estatística foi realizada através do programa GraphPad Prism 7.0 program (GraphPad Software, Inc. San Diego, CA) e a significância estatística foi considerada quando p<0,05. Os dois grupos avaliados apresentaram predomínio do sexo feminino, média etária de 29,6 anos e em sua maioria relataram fazer uso de automedicação. Não foi observado diferença significativa na capacidade antioxidante total entre os grupos avaliados, entretanto os níveis de atividade da enzima antioxidante Catalase se apresentaram significativamente reduzidos no grupo com rinite moderada-severa (91,2 + 90,5 vs. 148,5 + 111,3 μm/L; p=0,048), interessantemente observamos correlação positiva entre os níveis de catalase com proteínas carboniladas (r=0,437 e p=0,0253) e de catalase com índice de massa corporal (r=0,4109 e p=0,037) apenas neste grupo. Nossos dados demonstram que os pacientes com quadros mais graves de rinite alérgica apresentam maiores alterações dos marcadores oxidativos, que se correlacionam positivamente com fatores de risco de agravo do referido quadro.

The study aimed to design and fabricate an automated indoor hydroponic plant growth chamber, by comparing the manual system to determine plant growth and development and the sub-objective was to send data to the IoT platform. The sensor-based automated system incorporated pH, TDS, temperature, and humidity sensors, controlled by solenoid valves using Arduino. Tomato and lettuce plants were grown in both systems and growth parameters were measured. The results showed that the automated system maintained consistent temperature, humidity, pH, and EC levels similar to the outdoor system (vary in 30-32, 52-79, 5.5-6.5, and 1.5-2.5 dS/m ranges respectively). Furthermore, the automated indoor system significantly enhanced the plant growth of tomato and lettuce plants compared to the manual system. Significantly higher plant heights of 27.9±1.9 cm and 27.4±4.9 cm, the leaf lengths of 3.2±0.1 cm and 3.9±0.1 cm were observed for the tomatoes and the lettuces respectively in the automated indoor system. A significant difference was observed between the SPAD reading of the automated indoor tomato of 30±0.9 and the outdoor tomato of 26±0.4. Similarly, SPAD readings for the automated indoor lettuce of 23±0.3 and outdoor lettuce of 17±0.5 were significantly different (Pr=<0.0001, Pr≤0.05). These findings highlight the effectiveness of the automated hydroponic system in accommodating plant preferences and its potential for improving agricultural practices. By integrating IoT platforms for data analysis, this technology can optimize plant growth, enhance yields, and facilitate informed decision-making in hydroponic farming.

India is a country of rivers. Sundarban is the world’s largest deltaic region, which is also part of the Ganga region. Highly populated this region is frequently faced intensive floods. The objective of this paper is to give a notion about the potential embankment zone along the Vidyadhari River. Changes in riverbanks since 1972 have been highlighted through GIS and Remote Sensing Applications. Through this paper, erosional and depositional zones along the Vidyadhari River are also spotted out. The potential embankment zone is measured by the vulnerability analysis based on river bank shifting. The proper embankment technology has also suggested a sustainable embankment along the river Vidyadhari river, which is guided by the Irrigation Department, Government of West Bengal.

The purpose of this study is to find out the opportunities and challenge prevail to private’s schools in the city of Kabul. Data were collected using semi structured interview. The interview is conducted with the principal and teachers of private schools in Kabul. The thematic analysis has done to obtain the results and findings of the study.  In this research, opportunities and challenges such as discipline, daily study time in schools, parental involvement, course completion, socio-economic challenges of students and private schools were found to be some important factors. Classroom facilities and infrastructure are not well equipped in private schools, parental involvement, and syllabus completion were found to be less considered in the study. The challenges that are prevail to private schools are student’s misbehavior, lack of infrastructure and resources, lack of advanced technologies, strict rules and regulation by higher education of Afghanistan, lack of budgets, no support by the government, and no standardized curriculum, which are serious issues that are prevail to private schools. There are some opportunities such as eligibility to apply for different international scholarship, passing international exams, transportation, and internet facilities.  Afghanistan is already plagued with different views on national and international issues due to the different curricula taught by different institutions in different schools during the war. Some of the differences found in this research are significant and may give students additional benefits.
Strengthening Disaster Management Discourse: An Evaluation of Disaster Education in Africa’s Regional Platforms for Disaster Risk Reduction
Authors: Bang Henry
Published: July 2023

Purpose: Considering that the pedagogic space for disaster risk reduction (DRR) education is critical for enhanced resilience to disaster risks, this paper interrogates regional DRR education discourse in Africa. The focus is on the scope and depth to which DRR education has been mainstreamed into high-level regional meetings/platforms in the African continent. For this to be realised, first, the paper assesses whether the Africa Regional Platforms (ARPs) and high-level Ministerial Meetings for DRR perceive DRR education as a critical tool for mitigating disaster risks. Secondly, the paper gauges the depth to which identified determinants of DRR education have been integrated into the ARPs and High-Level Ministerial Meetings for DRR.

Methodology: By utilising a post-positivist qualitative research approach, the paper has scrutinised primary data from all the ARPs and High-Level Ministerial Meetings for DRR spanning close to twenty-five years. All sourced documents were sorted, coded and thematically analysed. The coded categories captured the extent of DRR education discussed in the regional platforms/meetings, the number of determinants of DRR education discussed in the various platforms and the depth with which the determinants of DRR education were discussed. A Likert scale grading ranging from “Poor” as the lowest and “Excellent” as the highest was used to assess the enquiries and inform the findings.

Findings: Through critical analysis and assessment, the findings have revealed the limited integration of DRR education during high-level DRR meetings in Africa. The analysis reveals an inconsistent and unsystematic DRR discourse during the Platforms/Meetings. Based on the Likert Scale grading, the two main enquiries of this research (scope of DRR education and the integration of DRR education determinants during the various Platforms) were both deemed to be “mediocre to fair”. Although this assessment is subjective, it paints a good picture of the integration of DRR education into risk aversion discourses at the highest level in the African continent.  

Unique Contribution to Theory, Practice and Policy: This paper pioneers the first in-depth assessment of DRR education discourse at the highest regional level in Africa. It contributes by augmenting the literature on DRR education discourse and determinants of DRR education; provides DRR insights to educators, students and practitioners and has policy implications for the governance of disaster risks at the highest African regional level. Considering the pivotal role of education in strengthening resilience to disaster risks, the findings provide a compelling argument for mainstreaming DRR education into the ARPs and high-level Ministerial Meetings for DRR. Arguably, this would expedite DRR education uptake by African countries.
