O tema deste estudo é a produção e a autoria de pessoas surdas na internet, especificamente, na plataforma de compartilhamento de vídeos e rede social YouTube, no Brasil. Trata-se de um tema de vanguarda e desvela a relação dos surdos com uma mídia digital que privilegia o vídeo, elemento este que está intimamente relacionado ao artefato cultural do povo surdo (Strobel, 2016), e valoriza a língua de sinais, que é a experiência visual. O objetivo é investigar os temas produzidos, exclusivamente em língua brasileira de sinais (Libras), por pessoas surdas nos canais do YouTube. A metodologia da pesquisa possui uma abordagem qualitativa do tipo descritiva (Gil, 2002) e utiliza, para a coleta de dados, o método dos principais itens para relatar revisões sistemáticas e meta-análises (Prisma; Page et al., 2021) com o tipo de amostragem de bola de neve (Vinuto, 2014). Foram identificados 913 vídeos postados em 11 canais de autores surdos brasileiros no YouTube, ao longo de nove anos, entre 2006, ano da criação do canal mais antigo analisado, e 2021. Os autores que contribuíram com a análise foram principalmente Festa (2012), Burgess e Green (2009/2009), Coruja (2017) e Medeiros e Rocha (2018). A partir da análise dos vídeos, foi possível identificar uma maior quantidade de vídeos com temas financeiros e observar que os vídeos com mais visualizações são sobre a língua de sinais, a identidade e a cultura surda.

Published: January 2023

The green chemistry promotes the synthesis of nanomaterials from plant extracts as a new climate intelligent alternative to the use of conventional protocols based on costly and toxic chemicals. Therefore, this research was undertaken to analyses the efficiency of banana (peels and rachis) waste extracts in the production of a micro-composite composed by silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) and cellulose microfibers (CMF) respectively. Results showed the synthesis of 24 nm diameter spherical particles AgNPs, with a peak of absorbance at 410 nm, in (v/v) water:ethanol extracts of banana peels at a final dilution of 3.10-2. Concomitantly, 50-350 µm in length and 5-10 µm of diameter CMF were obtained via the oxalic acid hydrolysis of the oven-dried banana rachis. The micro-composite (AgNPs-CMF) and AgNPs displayed an active reducing capacity over 60% determined by the DPPH test, and active bacterial activity against E. Coli and S. aureus in Petri dishes. Overall results support the use of banana waste for the synthesis of AgNPs and CMF for industrial purposes.

Published: February 2023

This study investigates hate speech in bumper stickers in Jordan. A random corpus of 220 bumper stickers has been collected by the researchers themselves over the period of a year during which they have been commuting from their place of living to the Hashemite University. Graphics and images of any kind and shape are excluded. The findings show that 120 stickers out of 220 exhibit hate speech at the thematic level, and 50 stickers show structural hate speech since they restrictively use imperatives. Stickers displaying thematic hate speech are divided into five categories: stickers with direct threats to others’ souls and properties; stickers with challenges to others; stickers displaying driver’s disappointment, despair, and misery; stickers displaying indifference to others’ feelings, ideas, and properties; and stickers with implicit hate speech. Finally, the findings show that although the targeted stickers show hate speech, they do not carry any indication of blasphemy or disloyalty, and they do not gear addressees towards vandalism.
A Comparative Study on Promotion of Modal Adjuncts in Research Article Introductions
Authors: Ma Jianjun , Zhu Jiaqi
Published: February 2023

Promotion is a major strategy in Research article introductions (RAIs) to attract reader's attention and gain recognition. Building on previous researches that suggest promotion in RAIs could be realized by different kinds of linguistic elements and rhetoric structures, this study collected 100 SCI RAIs in the discipline of computer science as data and explored the promotion realized by interpersonal metafunction and rhetoric structure of modal adjuncts. Meanwhile, in order to identify if there are differences and similarities of promotion between Chinese EFL RAIs (English RAIs written by Chinese scholars) and English L1 RAIs (English RAIs written by English and American scholars), this study quantified lexical features by examining lexical density, lexical variety and position of modal adjuncts. Results showed that the modal adjuncts could realize promotion through varying interpersonal metafunctions (temporality, modality, intensity and comment) and the model of Create a Research Space (CARS). However, more comprehensive promotion was realized in English L1 RAIs through interpersonal metafunction conveyed by more frequent, more kinds of and more positions of modal adjuncts. Besides, this study also verified that modal adjuncts were encoded of CARS to realize promotion in both Chinese EFL RAIs and English L1 RAIs in the same way because of the same strategies (familiarity and logic) and similar linguistic features. These results are discussed in terms of "constraint communication", and discipline background drawn on for knowledge claims in same and different types of academic writing of promotion between Chinese EFL RAIs and English L1 authors.
Reimagining Colonialism: Dune Within Postcolonial Science-Fiction
Authors: Yacine Barka Rabeh , Majdoubeh Ahmad Y.
Published: February 2023

This research paper will examine the science-fiction novel Dune as a postcolonial work. Colonial history and literature that have been the central focus of postcolonial studies influenced the structure of many science-fiction novels. One of these was Herbert’s Dune (1965), which carries a colonial formula into a new fictionalized setting. However, very few postcolonial studies cross into the science-fiction novel, and fewer still consider the science-fictional element that sets it apart as a genre. Thus, this article attempts to provide a new perspective on Dune as a postcolonial novel that sets a new premise for our understanding of postcolonialism. In employing the early anticolonial thoughts of Amilcar Cabral and his notion of resistance, this study will trace these anticolonial notions throughout the novel. In addition, it will consider the novel’s science-fictional element of spice and how it proves detrimental in perceiving the novel as a new form of postcolonial narrative.

Authors: Londoño-Zapata Andres F. , Fernández-Correa Jaime A. , Molina-Guzman Licet P. , Polanco-Echeverry Diana , Gutiérrez-Builes Lina A.
Published: January 2023

introducción
Los microorganismos del rumen son los responsables de la digestión del material vegetal que consumen los rumiantes. Las bacterias celulolíticas poseen la capacidad de degradar carbohidratos estructurales, por lo cual la abundancia y actividad enzimática de estas es esencial para la formulación de estrategias de manipulación de la fermentación ruminal.
obJetivo
Comparar los métodos de cuantificación de crecimiento bacteriano: número más probable, recuento de células viables en placa y Roll-tube para la enumeración de bacterias celulolíticas del rumen.

Materiales y métodos
Estudio experimental comparativo. Se evaluaron tres métodos de cuantificación de crecimiento bacteriano: número más probable, recuento de células viables en placa y Roll-tube, con respecto a la densidad y diversidad de bacterias celulolíticas ruminales en muestras de contenido ruminal recolectadas de dos hembras de raza Holstein canuladas al rumen.
Resultados
Se observó correlación positiva, de tipo alta con significancia estadística (0,826; p = 0,000) entre la cuantificación de células viables por el método de Roll-Tube y la cuantificación en placa, y una correlación negativa y de tipo moderada débil entre la cuantificación de células viables obtenidas por el método del número más probable con el método Roll-Tube (-0,514; p = 0,237), y negativa y de tipo débil entre la cuantificación con el método de número más probable y recuento en placa (-0,374; p = 0,147). Los resultados del coeficiente de determinación corroboran este dato. Con el número más probable se detectó baja diversidad, mientras que los métodos de recuento de células viables en placa y Roll-Tube mostraron consistencia respecto a densidad y diversidad de bacterias.
Conclusiones
Los resultados sugieren que la técnica de recuento de células viables en placa puede ser la más adecuada para cuantificar bacterias celulolíticas ruminales.

Referendum Campaigns in Hybrid Media Systems: Insights From the New Zealand Cannabis Legalisation Referendum
Authors: Rychert Marta , Wilkins Chris
Published: January 2023

During New Zealand’s 2020 cannabis legalisation referendum, advocacy groups on both sides widely debated the issue, utilising “older” and “newer” media channels to strategically influence voters, including through appearances in traditional media and paid advertising campaigns on Facebook. Comparatively little is known about the campaign strategies used by each camp and how they leveraged the hybrid media environment to advocate for their positions. We analyse the cannabis legalisation referendum campaigns using primary data from our digital ethnographic study on Facebook, a systematic quantitative content analysis of legacy media websites, and a review of published reports from other authors. We show how positive sentiment towards cannabis law reform in the traditional media was amplified via referendum campaigners’ activity on Facebook. While campaign expenses on both sides were similar, money was spent in different ways and via different mediums. The pro-legalisation campaign focused more on new digital media channels, while the anti-legalisation campaign diversified across a range of mediums, with greater attention paid to traditional political advertising strategies, such as leaflets and billboards. The New Zealand case study illustrates how greater engagement with the “newer” media logics may not necessarily secure a favourable outcome during a national referendum campaign. We discuss how the broader media and political environment may have influenced campaigners’ choices to engage (or not) with the different media channels.

According to World Health Organization, antibiotic resistance is rising to dangerously high levels in all parts of the world. New resistance mechanisms are emerging and spreading globally, threatening our ability to treat common infectious diseases. Therefore, searching for new antimicrobial agents of natural origin is an extraordinary global problem. The work aimed to determine the antimicrobial activity of lyophilized enzymatic lysate of cells of the Lactobacillus rhamnosus V strain of lactic acid bacteria. The object of the study was the drug Del-Imun V®, which hasanti-allergican dimmuno stimulating activity. The researchers' efforts aimed to fully reveal the drug's potential, particularlyitsanti microbialaction. Antimicrobial activity was determined by the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC). Determination of MIC was carried out by the method of twotime serial dilutions in meat-peptone broth (MPB) for bacteria and liquid wort for yeast. Gram-negative (Escherichia coli IEM-1, Proteus vulgaris PA-12, Pseudomonas sp. MI-2) and Gram-positive (Bacillus subtilis BТ-2, Staphylococcus aureus BМС-1) bacteria, as well as yeast (Candida albicans D-6, Candida tropicalis PE-2, Candida utilis BVS-65). It was shown that MIC valuesof the native preparation for the bacterial test cultures (EscherichiacoliIEM-1, Bacillussubtilis BT-2, Staphylococcusaureus BMS-1, Proteusvulgaris PA-12, Pseudomonassp. MI-2) were 8 time slower, than those of the thermally in activated preparation, forthe yeasts (Candidaalbicans D-6, Candidatropicalis PE-2, Candidautilis BVS-65) – 4-8 time slower. As a result of the conducted research, the antibacterial and antifungal activity of the drugDel-Imun V® was established. The spectrum of antimicrobial activity concerned gram-positiveand gram-negative bacteria and yeast-like fungi of the genus Candida. The minimum inhibitory concentrations were quite low: from 1.0 to 4.0 μg/ml for bacterial cultures and from 62.5 to 125 μg/ml for yeast. The culture of B. subtilis BT-2 was the least sensitive to the drug's action (MIC – 12.5 μg/ml). There fore, it can be concluded that the lysate of Lactobacillus rhamnosus V lacticacid bacteriahasanti bacteria landanti fungal properties.

Purpose: Hyperhomocysteinemia in children can develop as a result of genetic defects, endocrine abnormalities or under the influence of dietary factors. An elevated level of homocysteine is considered a risk factor for the progression of chronic kidney disease. The aim of the work was to investigate the indicators of oxidative stress in the homogenate of the kidneys of immature rats in control and with hyperhomocysteinemia. Methods: The concentration of reduced and oxidized glutathione, the activity of superoxide dismutase, catalase and nitric oxide synthase were determined. The model of hyperhomocysteinemia was reproduced on one-month-old male rats, which were kept on a standard vivarium diet. The experimental group was intragastrically administered by D,L-thiolactone homocysteine hydrochloride in a 1% starch solution at a dose of 200 mg/kg of body weight 1 per day for 8 weeks. The corresponding volume of 1% starch solution was injected into the control group of animals. The activity of superoxide dismutase, catalase and nitric oxide synthase were determined spectrophotometrically. Concentration of reduced and oxidized glutathione by fluorometric method. Results: It was established that upon hyperhomocysteinemia the concentration of reduced glutathione, the activity of superoxide dismutase, catalase, and nitric oxide synthase was decreased against the background of an increase in the concentration of oxidized glutathione in the homogenate of the kidneys of immature rats. Conclusions: The obtained results indicate that in the kidneys of immature rats, the development of oxidative stress occurs in the direction characteristic of adult animals. The obtained results indicate that in the kidneys of immature rats the development of oxidative stress resembles the adult animals. The obtained results showed a decrease in the concentration of reduced glutathione and the activity of antioxidant defense enzymes which may indicate the development of pathological processes in the kidneys
Peculiarities of a Civil Legal Personality of a Public Law Company
Authors: Zaitseva Yu. A.
Published: January 2023

The paper analyzes the civil legal personality of a public law company. According to the results of the study, the author concludes that the private interest of a public law company as a participant in civil legal relations, as well as the ways of its implementation (the range and content of legal relations that are formed for their implementation) are formed under the influence of the public interest of the Russian Federation. In view of this, civil legal capacity of a public law company is predetermined by its legally established public powers and activities and has a «competence» character. The scope of the civil legal capacity of a public law company is subject to change when its public powers change, which indicates the labile nature of its civil legal capacity. When exercising civil legal capacity, subjective rights arising from a public law company have a reactive effect for third parties beyond the civil legal relationship. The paper describes limitations of the principle of freedom and autonomy of its will in relation to a public law company.
Moral Principles of the Criminal Procedure in the context of Digitalization: Fundamental Inviolability or Inevitable Transformation
Authors: Mironova E. Yu.
Published: January 2023

Large-scale digitalization of social processes covers more and more areas of human activity, including criminal justice. At the same time, in the context of digitalization and likely digital transformation, it is important to preserve the moral basis of criminal proceedings. The paper discusses the degree of stability of the moral foundations of the criminal procedure in the face of the latest digital trends, analyzes the likelihood of changes in the system of moral principles in criminal proceedings in the context of digitalization. The author concludes that domestic criminal justice is at the initial stage of digitalization. At the moment this process does not pose serious threats to its moral principles. As various information and technological innovations (artificial intelligence, robotics, neural networks, etc.) are introduced into the criminal procedure, the risk of undermining its moral foundations increases significantly. Thus, the safety of moral principles in criminal proceedings is directly dependent on the limits of its digitalization. In general, it is possible to ensure the security of the fundamental provisions of the criminal procedural legislation, which are based on moral norms, if important conditions of a humanistic nature are observed in the process of introducing digital technologies. The use of a technocratic approach in the course of digitalization of criminal proceedings can cause irreparable harm to the moral and legal foundations of criminal procedure.
Tensioned Civility: Presidential Delegitimization of the Press
Authors: Novais Rui Alexandre , Araújo Viviane
Published: January 2023

This explorative study contributes to the theoretical debate on political incivility beyond the domination of Western-centric approaches while connecting the bodies of literature in political philosophy and media research. It offers empirical evidence of Bolsonaro’s delegitimizing criticisms and uncivil expressions toward the press, some specific news outlets, and individual journalists during the first two years of his presidential mandate in Brazil. It concludes that Bolsonaro displayed the complete repertoire of the defining elements of political incivility in liberal democracies vis à vis the delegitimization of the press. He also unprecedently pushed the limits of civility in political discourse by employing the entire arsenal of verbal manifestations of impoliteness.

Published: January 2023

The interest to ensure thermal comfort becomes one of the major challenges in the building sector, not only for the quality of interior ambiences, but also to minimize the energy rate consumed for heating and cooling systems. Th s paper presents the advantage of using the adaptive approach and numerical simulation to assess the level of thermal comfort of dwellings of different architectural typology in hot climate. For this purpose, the method is based on in situ measurements effected on two samples of traditional and contemporary typology; using anemometer instrument, where the climatic parameters measured inside and outside samples are: ambient temperature, relative humidity rate and air velocity. The simulation work is performed by Energy-Plus software; consequently experimental tests are realized on the local material in order to know their physical and thermal characteristics. The results obtained demonstrate the efficiency of the traditional passive devices, which are able to provide a comfortable thermal ambience without referring to the air conditioning system, with an operating temperature of 30.5ºC and a satisfaction rate of 80%.

Authors: Borges do Couto Jhenifer Priscila , Nucci João Carlos , Liberti Eduardo
Published: February 2023

O termo hemerobia, entendido como a dependência energética e tecnológica para a manutenção das paisagens, pode ser utilizado como indicador de qualidade ambiental urbana. Na cidade, onde a dependência energética e tecnológica para seu funcionamento é alta, espera-se que medidas de ordenamento possam colaborar para a diminuição da hemerobia e, consequentemente, aumentar a qualidade ambiental. O objetivo da pesquisa foi o de classificar as paisagens na bacia do Ribeirão dos Padilhas (Curitiba – PR), com base na cobertura da terra classificada em nível de quadra, utilizando o método proposto por Nucci, Ferreira e Valaski (2014) e de acordo com os graus de hemerobia propostos por Belem e Nucci (2011). As classes de hemerobia identificadas e suas respectivas taxas de ocupação na bacia foram: muito baixa (11% - 3,67km2), baixa (16,3% - 5,26km2), média (26,2% - 8,42km2), alta (21,3% - 6,79km2) e muito alta (1,9% - 0,63km2). Os espaços livres de edificação somam apenas 11% da bacia, sendo caracterizada, portanto, pelas superfícies impermeabilizadas e pela pouca cobertura vegetal.
Diversidad en los cómics: dibujos, personajes, historias y recorridos
Authors: Frezza Gino
Published: January 2023

Entre los cómics y la diversidad -al igual que entre diversidad, dibujos animados y películas cómicas- existe una corriente casi directa de concordancia y superposición o, también, de entrelazado inextricable. Existen bases de afirmación histórica del medio, desde finales del siglo XIX, que atestiguan la existencia de dicha corriente, pero también hay otras de carácter estructural a través de las cuales los cómics revelan el perímetro de diversidad tanto perceptiva como antropológica y cultural que designa la vida cotidiana y peculiar de la sociedad moderna, tecnológica, burguesa, capitalista (en los descartes o en los lazos de continuidad y ruptura -a veces pequeñas o grandes revoluciones- que enmarcan sus avances y cambios internos). Se presenta un análisis reflexivo de la diversidad del cómic desde diferentes variables de estudio.
Essentially Embodied Kantian Selves and The Fantasy of Transhuman Selves
Authors: Hanna Robert
Published: January 2023

By “essentially embodied Kantian selves,” I mean necessarily and completely embodied rational conscious, self-conscious, sensible (i.e., sense-perceiving, imagining, and emoting), volitional or willing, discursive (i.e., conceptualizing, judging, and inferring) animals, or persons, innately possessing dignity, and fully capable not only of free agency, but also of a priori knowledge of analytic and synthetic a priori truths alike, with egocentric centering in manifestly real orientable space and time. The basic theory of essentially embodied Kantian selves was spelled out by Kant over the course of slightly less than two decades, between 1768 and 1787, but above all, it flows from an empirical realist and metaphysical reading of the “Refutation of Idealism” that Kant inserted into the Postulates of Empirical Thought section in the 1787 edition of the first Critique. In my opinion, all rational but also “human, all-too-human” creatures like us are, synthetic a priori necessarily, essentially embodied Kantian selves. Let’s call that the essentially embodied Kantian selves thesis, or for short, EEKST. If EEKST is true, then it’s synthetic a priori impossible for the selves of creatures like us to exist independently of our own living organismic animal bodies or beyond the deaths of those bodies, whether temporarily or permanently, by any means whatsoever. Indeed, the very ideas of disembodied selves, their survival after death, and of human immortality, while minimally logically consistent, are in fact conceptually empty and incoherent, even over and above the synthetic a priori impossibility of such things, since the term “myself” indexically picks out an essentially embodied Kantian self, all of whose core features require grounding in a particular living organismic animal body. According to the recent and contemporary movement of transhumanism, the selves of creatures like us can not only exist independently of our bodies, as functional systems of representational content that are inherently able to be implemented or realized in digital-mechanical technology and uploadable to servers, but also to survive accidental or natural human death in server-limbo, then be downloaded into technologically enhanced partially mechanical humanoid bodies or even into wholly artificially-created completely mechanical non-humanoid bodies, survive in these new implementations or realizations for an indefinitely long time, repeat that process, and possibly even become immortal. Transhumanism is in fact metaphysically equivalent to Swedenborgianism, which Kant so effectively criticizes and wittily derides in his 1766 book, Dreams of a Spirit-Seer Elucidated by Dreams of Metaphysics. Moreover, and more importantly, if EEKST is true, then, just like Swedenborgianism, transhumanism is not only conceptually empty and incoherent, but also synthetic a priori impossible. And what’s more, it’s also existentially and morally reprehensible. In short, then, the belief in transhuman selves is nothing but a reprehensible noumenal fantasy or Hirngespinst.

The concept of "Stingless Bee-Friendly Local Home Garden" can be an alternative for urban landscape conservation through home gardens, especially in Depok City, which has a rapid flow of development. For this reason, a management strategy is needed as part of an effort to improve the landscape services of Depok City.  This study aims to analyze the characteristics of home gardens and the potential for developing stingless bee-friendly home gardens to support the optimization of urban landscape services. The research was conducted using a field survey on sample of home gardens selected through purposive sampling methods, interviews, questionnaires, and literature studies. Based on the conditions of climate, weather, ecology, 90 samples of home gardens and respondents, Depok City has the potential to develop the concept of a honey bee-friendly home garden. These conditions can support the activity of stingless bees and provide a source of available food throughout the year. The concept of a stingless bee-friendly home garden can be achieved by presenting a diversity of food plant sources, providing bee hives, and proper home garden management. Therefore, it is necessary to conduct socialization and training on stingless-bee keeping in the yard starting from farmers group, making an example of a honey bee-friendly home garden, and increasing green space connections in the city   Keywords: home garden management, landscape services, stingless bee-friendly home garden, urban landscape

We have studied the capacitance and kinetic properties of nanoporous carbon material which was obtained from wood. The maximum radius pore distribution of the investigated material was 1.37 nm. The data from X-ray scattering and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy was used to investigate the influence of porous structure change and electronic structure of activated carbon material on the mechanism and kinetics of charge-discharge at 7.6m KOH solution. It was proved that depending on the electrode potential and chemical potentials of electrolyte ions there are two different mechanisms of the charge of the porous structure of investigated material. The first mechanism is a process of electrostatic adsorption of hydrated electrolyte ions, and the second is a process electrosorption of H+ or OH. It was shown the cycle of charge-discharge capacity of 95 F/g can be made for two seconds and this is half of the maximum capacity of the material under study.

Published: February 2023

Social marketing has been developed to create a change in people’s attitudes toward the achievement of public health and social welfare. Social marketing techniques are used for health promotion, prevention of injuries, environmental protection, and social awareness. This study aims to explore the attitudes of Greek citizens toward the impact of social marketing techniques on their awareness of public health in general and their fight against COVID-19 in particular. A primary survey was conducted in May–June 2021 to a random sample of Greek citizens. Principal component analysis (PCA) was conducted to identify the main attitudes of Greek millennials toward the impact of social marketing on people’s awareness regarding public health in general and the fight against COVID-19 in particular. Therefore, two main attitudes were derived from PCA: (a) social marketing contributed significantly into public awareness regarding public health issues and COVID-19 fight, and (b) some social marketing techniques had a negative impact on the use of vaccines as a protection measure toward COVID-19. Cluster analysis was performed to classify those citizens into groups according to their attitudes toward the use of social marketing in public health and COVID-19 issues. It identified three groups of citizens: (a) those who believe that social marketing has a significant impact on people’s awareness regarding public health and protection against COVID-19, (b) those who are uninterested, and (c) those who believe that social marketing contributes to the dissemination of negative information regarding vaccination against COVID19. Nonparametric tests, including the Chi-square and Friedman nonparametric tests were performed to develop the profile of those citizens.

O artigo apresenta um relato da experiência realizada durante a sindemia de COVID-19, a partir das ações de implantação de sistemas agroflorestais voltados para a inclusão produtiva, a saúde e a qualidade de vida na Aldeia Koyakati - Terra Indígena Mãe Maria -, em Bom Jesus do Tocantins-sudeste do Pará. Essas ações integram o projeto ArticulaFito e resultam de um diagnóstico da base produtiva nacional de plantas medicinais e produtos da sociobiodiversidade, onde a necessidade de recuperação e conservação de áreas degradadas foi apontada como um fator de fragilidade das relações produtivas, especialmente no que tange aos territórios de populações e comunidades tradicionais, pressionados por modelos produtivos predatórios que impactam negativamente os modos de vida e a saúde dessas populações. A metodologia Value Links-B foi aplicada no diagnóstico com vistas à elaboração de um plano de ação voltado para os desafios diagnosticados na cadeia da castanha-do-brasil (Bertholletia excelsa Bonpl.), espécie categorizada como ameaçada de extinção por declínio populacional. Em seguida, indica os sistemas agroflorestais, para garantir o manejo adequado das espécies agroextrativistas nativas e, desse modo, conservar a biodiversidade, bem como garantir o acesso à matéria-prima. As ações de implantação de Unidade de Experimentação Agroecológica (UEA) são aqui descritas, com o objetivo de fortalecer os sistemas produtivos e, assim, gerar emprego e renda, no intuito de melhorar os indicadores de saúde nesses territórios.

Korupcijska tveganja in korupcija v zdravstvu ostajajo globalni problem, na katerega Slovenija ni imuna. Pregled literature, virov in izvedba pilotske študije, ki je vključevala polstrukturirane intervjuje z zdravniki, strokovnjakom s področja omejevanja korupcije in dobaviteljem/zastopnikom, proizvajalci/distributerji zdravil in medicinskih pripomočkov, je nakazal, da v Sloveniji prevladujejo štiri pojavne oblike korupcije in korupcijskih tveganj v zdravstvu. Te so korupcija in korupcijska tveganja, izhajajoča iz sodelovanja s proizvajalci/distributerji zdravil in medicinskih pripomočkov, korupcija in korupcijska tveganja na področju javnih naročil, korupcija in korupcijska tveganja pri prepletu med javnimi in zasebnimi praksami ter korupcija in korupcijska tveganja v povezavi s čakalnimi vrstami. Močno je izražena tudi verjetnost, da je v slovenskem zdravstvenem sistemu prisotna sistemska korupcija. Za omejevanje korupcije in koruptivnih tveganj se kažejo kot najbolj efektivni pristopi k večanju transparentnega delovanja zdravstvenega sistema in terjanju odgovornosti ključnih akterjev, centraliziran sistem javnih naročil ter ureditev čakalnih vrst.
