Responsabilidad patrimonial por reacción adversa a la vacunación: régimen general con referencia especial al caso del covid-19
Authors: Medina Alcoz Luis
Published: October 2022

El presente estudio tiene por objeto determinar si la víctima de reacciones adversas de una vacuna, en general, y de la del covid-19, en particular, tiene derecho a indemnización y, en caso afirmativo, determinar la(s) autoridad(es) o empresa(s) que debiera(n) hacerse cargo de ella. La mayor o menor autonomía conferida al individuo es la clave para determinar las eventuales consecuencias resarcitorias de aquellas reacciones adversas. Por tal razón, el estudio se estructura alrededor de los tres modelos básicos de vacunación que pueden distinguirse atendiendo a su carácter más o menos obligatorio: sistema de vacunación voluntaria o libertad plena; sistema de vacunación forzosa u obligación plena; y sistema de vacunación recomendada o libertad parcial/obligación atenuada. El trabajo aborda separadamente cada uno de ellos, describiéndolo en abstracto, ejemplificándolo en concreto y señalando la problemática constitucional que suscita, lo que incluye un análisis sobre su constitucionalidad, la eventual dimensión constitucional de la indemnización del daño vacunal y la viabilidad del recurso de amparo. Tras ello, explico en cada caso el régimen indemnizatorio correspondiente de acuerdo con el sistema de responsabilidad patrimonial y los fondos compensatorios que podrían eventualmente constituirse. La estrategia de vacunación instaurada específicamente en España frente al covid-19 responde a (y exacerba) el modelo de vacunación recomendada. La cuestión de la responsabilidad por las reacciones adversas resultantes se abordará dentro del epígrafe relativo a este modelo. El cuadro sinóptico incluido en el último epígrafe resume y refleja sistemáticamente las conclusiones obtenidas.
Instrumentos Jurídicos de Governança e Implementação de Dispositivos da Legislação Brasileira
Authors: Nascimento Almir Lima
Published: October 2022

O enforcement das normas é um dos principais aspectos a serem levados em conta quando se examina o bom funcionamento de uma sociedade e de suas instituições. Ao legislador compete elaborar e fazer aprovar a proposta de dispositivo legal no âmbito do Poder Legislativo, mas não apenas isso. No momento da formulação, cabe-lhe igualmente ter presente que o cumprimento da norma que elabora, tanto por quem deve zelar por sua aplicação e observância, quanto pela sociedade como um todo que deve acatá-la, deve ser algo simples e direto. O mesmo raciocínio se aplica aos técnicos, gestores e autoridades que elaboram normas infralegais.

Hygiene-Erstinspektion nur durch qualifiziertes Personal
Authors: Keune Achim
Published: October 2022

Von unzureichend geschulten Personen durchgeführte Hygiene-Inspektionen an raumlufttechnischen Anlagen führen zunehmend dazu, dass Berater des Bauherren empfehlen, die Hygiene-Inspektion von qualifizierten und erfahrenen Hygiene-Experten der Lufttechnik prüfen beziehungsweise komplett neu anfertigen zu lassen. Häufig werden dann eklatante Prüffehler aufgedeckt, die den Bauherren zu Nachforderungen auch an die RLT-Anlagen herstellende Firma berechtigen. Dies könnte vermieden werden, wenn insbesondere die Hygiene-Erstinspektion sachgerecht nach VDI 6022 Blatt 1 erstellt wird und der Planer von Beginn an die VDI 6022 beachtet.

Published: October 2022

Häufiger als erwartet werden in Trinkwasser-Installationen für Krankenhäuser, Seniorenwohnheimen, Kindergärten und Schulen – den sogenannten Risikoinstallationen – Kontaminationen des kalten Trinkwassers mit Legionellen nachgewiesen 1). Diese Kontaminationen lassen sich fast immer auf zu hohe Temperaturen des Kaltwassers in Stagnationsphasen zurückführen. Aufgrund der hohen Lufttemperaturen in Installationsvorwänden sind Stockwerks- und Einzelzuleitungen, an denen Entnahmearmaturen mit geringer Nutzungsfrequenz angeschlossen sind, besonders gefährdet. Die Erfahrung zeigt, dass die ambitionierten Temperaturanforderungen für das kalte Trinkwasser aus neueren Regelwerken mit traditionellen Bau- und Installationsmethoden nicht erfüllt werden können. Damit dadurch das Risiko des Planers beziehungsweise des ausführenden Unternehmens nicht unkalkulierbar wird, sollten mit dem Auftraggeber bereits zu Beginn des Planungsprozesses eindeutige Vereinbarungen zur Temperaturhaltung im kalten Trinkwasser getroffen werden

Authors: Murdikaningrum Galu , Kencanawati Kenny , Ramdhani Bagus R , Ramdani Rizal
Published: October 2022

Treatment of liquid waste using iron coagulant produces a by-product in the form of sludge which requires large handling costs. To reduce environmental pollution and sludge treatment costs, the sludge will be used as raw material for the manufacture of iron coagulant. This study aims to determine whether the sludge from textile WWTP can be used as raw material for iron coagulant. To determine the effectiveness of coagulants made from sludge, this study will compare the results of the coagulation-flocculation process using commercial iron coagulants and iron coagulants made from sludge as well as mixed coagulants with ratios of commercial iron coagulants to iron coagulants made from sludge of 70%, 60%, 50%, 40%, and 30%. The water quality resulting from the coagulation-flocculation process was indicated by pH, color turbidity, Total Dissolved Solid (TDS) and Total Suspended Solid (TSS). The results showed that the water quality of the coagulation-flocculation process was worse when mixed coagulant was used with a smaller ratio of commercial iron coagulant to iron coagulant made from sludge. A mixture of commercial iron coagulant and iron coagulant made from sludge that meets the quality standard for the TSS parameter is a mixed coagulant with a v/v ratio of 70%, while those less than 70% do not meet the quality standard.
Comparative Analysis of Four Time-Series Models in an Effort to Determine The Optimal Forecasting Results
Authors: Muluk Kiki Abdul , Suryopratomo Anggit
Published: October 2022

Forecasting is one of the company's efforts, which is the decision making for the strategy carried out. A good company will predict the production of products that will be achieved, for the future and can help solve the problem of fluctuating conditions which generally often become a problem in the company. Forecasting demand (demand), is very helpful for companies to consider in carrying out the production process in the next several periods. Furthermore, to find out what method is suitable for the forecasting method, it is used by knowing the patterns and historical data. Accuracy in using the right forecasting method is expected to assist the company in determining the level of production in accordance with consumer demand in the future. Time-series models are methods that predict the future using historical data. Time-series models make the assumption that what happens in the future is a function of what has happened in the past. The advantage of time-series models is that they can see what has happened over a period of time and use a series of past data to make predictions. The application of the right and directed forecasting method can support the company to make optimal sales in order to achieve the maximum level of profit.
Human Brain Banking as a Convergence Platform of Neuroscience and Neuropsychiatric Research
Authors: Liu Fan , Yin Xiang-Sha , Cong Cong , Wang Yuanzhuo , Ma Chao
Published: October 2022

Neuropsychiatric disorders affect hundreds of millions of people and their families worldwide. Many studies have used human postmortem brain samples to decipher the molecular framework of these diseases. These studies uncovered brain-specific genetic and epigenetic patterns using high-throughput sequencing techniques. Therefore, determining the best way to collect human postmortem brain samples, analysing such a large amount of sequencing data, and interpreting these results is critical to advancing the field of neuropsychiatric sciences. By collecting postmortem/biopsied neural tissues and information about the diseases and life of donors, human brain banks support the observation and research of human brain sciences. Furthermore, the construction of large-scale brain banks has promoted the exploration of human brain morphology and function, development and ageing, as well as the mechanism of many neuropsychiatric diseases, which progressively reveal the normal mechanism of human brain activities and lead the direction of the prevention and treatment of neurological diseases. This article introduces the significance of human brain tissue bank construction and the current situation of the human brain tissue bank worldwide, as well as an overview of neurology or neuroscience advanced by using human brain samples.

The study of post-mortem human brains is fundamental to the discovery and diagnosis of most neurological diseases and an in-depth understanding of brain structure, function and disorders. Human brain banks use a standardized protocol to collect, process, and store post-mortem human brains and related tissues, together with relevant clinical information, and to provide the tissue samples and data to foster neuroscience research. A Standardized Operational Protocol (SOP) that is approved by and can be abided by all of the human brain banks in the China Human Brain Bank Consortium is critical to developing brain research in China. The first SOP of human brain banking in China was published in 2017 following the foundation of the China Human Brain Bank Consortium. So far, 20 members from different regions in China have joined the consortium, forming a nationwide collaboration network of human brain banks. To provide brain tissue samples of good quality and consistency to meet the increasing demand for neuroscience research, a revised SOP was drafted by experts from the China Human Brain Bank Consortium. Significant improvements in this new version of SOP include strengthened ethical guidelines, recruitment of matching controls, and more brain regions to be sampled for neuropathological evaluation.

Pregnancy Preeclampsia in Patients with a History of Chronic Disease and Complications
Authors: Dung Nguyen Huc
Published: October 2022

A condition known as preeclampsia is a pregnancy-related problem that carries with it the risk of death. Those pregnant women who have a history of obstetric complications have a risk that is 1,275 times greater than those pregnant women who do not have such a history. This was shown by the fact that a correlation exists between the two different groups. The presence or absence of pregnancy in a woman may have an impact on whether or not she is at risk of getting diabetes. There has been a shift in the proportion of carbohydrates that are present in the body of the mother ever since it was discovered that she was expecting a child. Diabetes is a condition that may be harmful to a pregnancy regardless of whether it is present before birth or if it is acquired during pregnancy.

Published: October 2022

Aim: Results of the surgical and medical treatments of giant cell tumor of the bone (GCT) in terms of local recurrence and prognostic factors associated with local recurrence are evaluated in this study.
Material and Method: Patients treated with either surgical or medical methods for GCT between 2011 and 2021 were retrospectively evaluated. Gender and age of the patients, localization of tumors, the existence of pathological fractures, grade of the tumor, soft tissue expansion, and resection types were evaluated. Postoperative local recurrence and metastasis were analyzed, and the risk factors associated with local recurrence were determined.
Results: The mean age of the 117 patients (51 female and 66 male) was 36.1±9.3 years. The mean follow-up was 71.2±48.3 months. Forty patients were Grade I, 56 were Grade II, and 21 were Grade 3, according to the Campanacci Grading System. Soft tissue expansion was present in 21 (17.9%) patients. 59.8% of the patients were undergone intralesional curettage, 32.4% of the patients were treated with marginal or wide local excision combined with adjuvant therapy with liquid nitrogen and poly-methyl methacrylate (PMMA) application, and 5.9% of the patients have treated with en bloc wide resection and reconstruction or arthrodesis. Two patients suffering from sacral involvement were treated with radiotherapy. There was local recurrence after surgery in 19 (16.2%) of the patients.
Conclusion: Local recurrence is an important cause of morbidity in the treatment of GCT, which is a benign but aggressive tumor of the bone. In this study, in which we investigated the causes of local recurrence, Campanacci Grade and soft tissue expansion were found to be associated with the development of local recurrence.

Published: October 2022

Aim: Central nervous system may be affected after coronary artery by-pass graft (CABG) and carotid artery stenosis is an important risk factor. Near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is used to measure the regional cerebral oxygen concentration (rScO2). The aim of this study is to determine the relationship of rScO2 in patients with carotid artery lesion and to determine the relation of stroke with rScO2 changes. Material and Method: The patients who had cardiac bypass surgery were involved in the study. Demographic characteristics and presence of carotid artery stenosis, were collected from the files. Bilateral rSO2 measurements performed by 2 sensors. RScO2 values are detected in 5 minutes of cross-clamp (XCL5), XCL30, XCL60, XCL90, XCL120 and after the by-pass. Results: 57 patients were involved in the study (40 male and mean age 62.54±13.08). 17 (29%) patients had carotid stenosis. rScO2 levels are statistically significantly decreased in the patients with stenosis after post-clamp 30 minutes. Three patients had stroke after surgery (5.2%). Two of the patients had carotid stenosis while one patient did not have. Conclusion: RScO2 decreased in carotid artery stenosis irrespective of the degree of the stenosis after 30 minutes of cross-clamp. Cerebral perfusion follow-up is important during the CPB and NIRS is a method that can be used for this purpose.

Unemployment among cancer patients during COVID-19 pandemic
Authors: ALAGÜNEY Mehmet Erdem , YILDIZ Fatih
Published: October 2022

Aim: The survival rate of cancer patients is increased which resulted in an increased number of cancer survivors in working life. Return to work of cancer patients resulted in improved health outcomes and quality of life. However, cancer survivors have a high risk of unemployment. The COVID-19 pandemic caused global economic distress and put a great burden on the healthcare system which affected the cancer survivors further. COVID-19 may be a concurrent risk along with cancer, as a barrier for return to work. We investigated the factors that are associated with unemployment among cancer survivors, during the COVID-19 pandemic. Thus, we aimed to detect risk factors for unemployment amongst cancer patients during the COVID-19 pandemic. Therefore, we aimed to maintain the employment status of cancer survivors and prevent undesired individual and global economic and health outcomes.

Material and Method: This is a cross-sectional, descriptive study. Control patients who applied to the Medical Oncology outpatient clinic were over 18 years old, diagnosed with cancer, completed adjuvant chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy treatment, the disease has not relapsed, and working before March 2020 were included in the study. The survey collection process for the study was carried out between July 2020 and November 2020.

Results: There were 146 participants (65 male (44,5%) and 81 female (%55,5)). 42 (28.8%) of the 146 participants stated that they quit their jobs during the pandemic. Being a government employee, having a good-high household income and a high degree of education was protective against losing their jobs.

Conclusion: It is very important to understand the causes of unemployment among cancer survivors and solve these issues in order to increase the well-being, quality of life, and survival of the patient, as well as improve the economic and social status of society.

Authors: KORKMAZ Nazlı , ALATAŞ İbrahim , ATEŞ AYDIN Alev , EKİZ Ali , ÖNCÜ Necdet
Published: October 2022

Introduction: Fetal cerebellar malformations (FCM) are known as very rare central nervous system malformations that occur as hypoplasia or agenesis of the cerebellum or vermis. In this study, the characteristics, diagnostic methods, risk factors and management of pregnant women diagnosed with FCM in the prenatal period were investigated.

Material and Method: The patients who diagnosed with prenatal FCM in the perinatology center between March 2017-February 2021 were included, retrospectively. The frequency of fetal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), amniocentesis and/or karyotype analysis rates, and termination frequency were evaluated. In addition, the factors affecting the amniocentesis and the termination/follow-up decision were investigated.

Results: A total of 42 pregnant with FCM were included. The median gestational age was 24.0 years, and the mean gestational week was 25+2 (SD±5+1) weeks. Nearly half (40.5%) of patients were diagnosed before 24 weeks of gestation and 45.2% were primiparous. Cerebellar hypoplasia was observed in 47.6%, while vermis agenesis was observed in almost one third (31.0%); and also 19.0% had multiple FCM. The fetal USG was used in all pregnant women, fetal MRI was performed in only 4.8% for diagnosis of FCM. The rate of amniocentesis and karyotype analysis were 11.9% and 7.1%, retrospectively. No any complications were observed after the amniocentesis. The termination rate was 30.9%. The mean gestational week of those who had live birth was higher than those who were terminated (24+4 vs 20+5) (p=0.019).

Conclusion: The frequency of FCM diagnosis has increased with the development of modern medicine and technology. There is no relationship between demographic characteristics of pregnant women and FCM. Socio-economic levels and religious belief differences affect the termination and birth rates.

TD 2801 - Diretório dos grupos de pesquisa do CNPq : trajetória e contribuições acadêmicas
Authors: Chiarini Tulio , Rapini Marcia Siqueira , Ruffoni Janaína , Pereira Larissa de Souza
Published: October 2022

Este texto para discussão tem como objetivo argumentar a respeito da relevância do Diretório dos Grupos de Pesquisa (DGP) vinculado à Plataforma Lattes enquanto base de dados fundamental para registro e acompanhamento da atividade científica, tecnológica e interativa entre diferentes atores do Sistema Nacional de Ciência, Tecnologia e Inovação (SNCTI), reunindo dados e permitindo a construção de indicadores fundamentais para a avaliação de políticas públicas em ciência e tecnologia (C&T) e, em certo sentido, em inovação. Para tanto, apresenta-se uma análise de conteúdo dos trabalhos acadêmicos que utilizaram a base de dados do DGP desde seu lançamento na década de 1990 até 2021, a partir de uma revisão sistemática da literatura – usando o Catálogo de Teses e Dissertações, da Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior (Capes), e a base da Biblioteca Digital Brasileira de Teses e Dissertações, do Instituto Brasileiro de Informação em Ciência e Tecnologia (BDTD/IBICT). Foi feita também uma busca de artigos publicados em periódicos indexados nas bases Web of Science, Scopus e Scielo. A busca exaustiva evidenciou 244 documentos pertinentes, os quais passaram por um processo de clusterização. Os clusters identificados foram agrupados em três categorias: i) economia da ciência, tecnologia e inovação (CT&I); ii) sociologia da C&T; e iii) cientometria aplicada. Os principais resultados apontam que a produção acadêmica que fez uso do DGP é bastante rica, diversa e crescente. As três categorias ilustram a contribuição do DGP para a compreensão de aspectos diversos do SNCTI. A constatação central é que, nos últimos anos, a base do DGP vem perdendo centralidade e sendo enfraquecida. Sob esse ponto de vista, a política de CT&I brasileira perde ao não apostar nas potencialidades de um sistema que permite a construção de indicadores com baixo custo relativo para a obtenção de informações e com significativa representatividade da comunidade científica do país.

Published: October 2022

Background:

Five telemedicine simulations were created during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic to elucidate implicit biases and enhance awareness of social determinants of health among nursing students. Social determinants affect overall health, functioning, and quality-of-life outcomes and risks. Implicit biases are related to patient–provider interactions, treatment decisions and adherence, and ultimately patient health outcomes. Purpose: This article explains the simulation development and content, describes the student learning outcomes, and presents faculty insights that highlight the necessity of simulation experiences in nursing education.

Method:

Five telemedicine simulations that presented different social determinants of health and implicit biases were created for undergraduate nursing students.

Results:

Nursing students increased knowledge related to social determinants and their own implicit biases.

Conclusion:

Telemedicine simulations were effective in assisting nursing students recognize their own implicit biases and the economic challenges of individuals living in poverty, as well as the potential influence of social determinants of health.

Published: October 2022

The present article includes data on the possible selective cytotoxic effect of extract of Ribes nigrum L. growing at high Armenian landscape. For this purpose, different non-cancer (microglial BV-2 wild type (Wt), acyl-CoA oxidase 1 (ACOX1) deficient (Acox1−/−) and cancer (human colon adenocarcinoma HT29 and human breast cancer MCF7) cell lines were applied. R. nigrum leaf ethanol extract showed a growth inhibition effect towards HT29 and MCF7 cells started from 6 h of treatment at the concentration of 0.5 mg/mL DW. The lowest concentration (0.125 mg/mL DW) of the investigated extract expressed cytotoxicity after 72 hours following cancer cell treatment. In contrast to the cancer cells, in the case of the tested non-cancer cells, cytotoxic effect was not observed at the applied concentrations. The extract sub-cytotoxic concentration, in this case, was reported to be the 1 mg/mL DW. Further investigations are needed to confirm the selective cytotoxicity and possible action mechanisms of the leaf extract of R. nigrum.

Published: October 2022

We consider saddle point problem and proposed an updating $ QR $ factorization technique for its solution. In this approach, instead of working with large system which may have a number of complexities such as memory consumption and storage requirements, we computed $ QR $ factorization of matrix $ A $ and then updated its upper triangular factor $ R $ by appending the matrices $ B $ and $ \left(\begin{array}{cc} B^T & -C \\ \end{array} \right) $ to obtain the solution. The $ QR $ factorization updated process consisting of updating of the upper triangular factor $ R $ and avoid the involvement of orthogonal factor $ Q $ due to its expensive storage requirements. This technique is also suited as an updating strategy when $ QR $ factorization of matrix $ A $ is available and it is required that matrices of similar nature be added to its right end or at bottom position for solving the modified problems. Numerical tests are carried out to demonstrate the applications and accuracy of the proposed approach.
Deployment and Optimization of Virtual Power Plants and Microgrids
Authors: Recioui Abdelmadjid
Published: October 2022

In Algeria, the government trend is towards the adoption of clean sources in electrical energy production due to the imoprtant solar and wind potential that is available in the desert. Virtual power plants (VPP) are modular designed entities based on software communication technologies which efficiently integrate, organize, and manage decentralized generation, storage, and consumption through a smart energy management system (EMS). VPP can only be created if there is a market to sell its power and services whereas microgrids (MG) can be created anywhere and are not market dependent. In this chapter, a description of VPP and MG is presented. The key components are described, and a comparative study is done to assess which option to adopt for the Algerian context. A review about the deployment experiences, trends, and operation optimization is presented. The aim is to assess how to deploy them in a collaborative way to fit the Algerian future energy sector perspective.

Published: October 2022

The aim of this chapter is to review how citizen science programs can contribute to each SDG, supported also by successful cases. Prerequisites have been the inclusion of at least one case from all five global areas and the field of interest is well spread through various study areas while the cases are only RFO or RPO projects. The design and implementation of this research is structured as follows. Each SDG is analyzed in a separate chapter. To begin with, the main goals of the relevant SDG are mentioned. The chapter continues with the relevance of citizen science projects to the respective goal. Ultimately, an example on how a citizen science project can make the goal effective is chosen. The case studies are selected based on their location, the timeframe of the project, and are structured beginning with the people or institutions involved, continuing with the project description and concluding with the project's contribution to the relevant SDG. The chapter then proceeds to a comparative case study analysis, with results and discussion in order to extract conclusions.

Published: October 2022

The purpose of this research is to analyze the different effects of the green intellectual capital (GIC) of wine companies on the fulfillment of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), contributing to academic literature in a remarkable way, since, to the authors' knowledge, there is no previous research that has addressed this relationship. In order to achieve the proposed objective, the research follows a qualitative approach, since the single case study was used. The research results demonstrate how the three dimensions of the GIC (green human capital, green structural capital, green relational capital) act as catalysts for the fulfillment of SDGs 3, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 11, 12, 13, 15, and 17.
Human Being and the Homeostasis Restoration of the Biosphere of the Earth and of Anthropocenosis
Authors: Pilipenko Andrey I. , Pilipenko Olga I. , Pilipenko Zoya A.
Published: October 2022

The Earth's biosphere could be interpreted as a meta-system that integrates anthropocenosis as its component. The anthropocenosis integrates numerous human-created systems in the economy, society, technologies that play the role of system elements of the biosphere. Nature's destruction is unequivocally connected with the activity of these elements. This is because the human-created systems have progressed and become more complicated due to the destruction of the Earth's biosphere. It means a violation of the dialectics of the interaction of the system integrity and its constituent elements. Homeostasis restoration of the Earth's biosphere and anthropocenosis makes the authors rethink the role of human being in the processes of system formation. Only an intellectually autonomous person with high social responsibility is able to integrate the goals of restoring the Earth's biosphere into his ethical values and realize them. So, the UN SDGs will be achieved only if individuals are formed with a conscious mission to restore the Earth's biosphere and its interaction with the anthropocenosis.
Return to the Basics

Buildings use a substantial amount of primary energy, and as a consequence, they are a significant source of greenhouse gas emissions, which contribute to global warming and climate change. A considerable change in building design ideas, methods, technologies, and design and construction systems is necessary in light of the oncoming worldwide energy and environmental concerns. Vernacular architecture is a valuable resource that has the ability to contribute significantly to the definition of sustainable design principles. It is distinguished by a particular style of formal expression that has evolved in reaction to a variety of elements—geographical, climatic, social, and economic—that describe the local location or region in question. The purpose of this chapter is to examine instances of vernacular architecture that have been used to combat climate change and to qualitatively appraise the bioclimatic design solutions that have been applied.
Urban Transition via Municipal Transformation

Published: October 2022

Municipalities have to play a substantial role for urban resilience and sustainable development not only as local administrators, but also as strategists for integrated territorial planning, enablers by generating the urban activity and growth, servants by providing public quality-of-life amenities, and investors (public investments, infrastructures, and soft projects). Cities need further specialization to deal with complexities of the modern challenges, including pandemics, climate change, resources depletion, and socio-economic issues. They need to become more responsive and effective to emergencies as well as the long-term sustainability. They have to keep up with social and technological innovation and transit to a new model of operation. In order to achieve these, municipalities have to be organized like the contemporary companies; plan intelligent policies regarding resources, social capital, and economic growth, with respect to SDGs; apply smart and healthy city projects; involve cities to the international programmes, initiatives, and networks; and be familiar with the new era funding tools.
Emergent Language and Literacy Skills in Early Childhood
Authors: López Angel Silvia
Published: October 2022

Studies have emphasized the importance of the first years of life for successful long-term language and literacy development. It is thus crucial we focus on designing appropriate and effective early learning environments with a clear literacy interaction plan that engages learners in their success and helps them advocate for the language skills they need and do not yet have. This chapter will show early natural language and literacy acquisition in children ages 2 to 4 years in a context where youngsters are exposed to a rich verbal, emotional, and experiential environment where thinking is valuable, visible, and actively promoted as a vehicle to language and literacy, and global competency frameworks are leaving the best tools in their backpack for life.
