The Influence and Measures of Intergenerational Education on Children’s Social Development
Authors:   The East Asian Trade Association, k k
Published: February 2024

Purpose - At present, intergenerational education has become a common form of family education. However, with the increase in the proportion of families adopting inter-generational parenting, the disadvantages are also becoming apparent. The purpose of this paper is analyzing the influence of inter-generational parenting on children’s social development, and putting forward some referential parenting measures to provide guidance and reference for families adopting inter-generational parenting.
Design/Methodology/Approach - Literature research method was adopted. Through the research, it has been found that the impact of inter-generational upbringing on children’s social development is more prominent. This paper puts forward three suggestions for improving the quality of intergenerational education and promoting children’s social development.
Findings - Children with intergenerational parenting have lower social development than those with parental parenting. The educational background and occupation of grandparents have a certain influence on the social cultivation of children. What’s more, the parenting ideas and ways of grandparents also have a great impact on the social development of children.
Research Implications - The socialization process of children mainly takes place in the family. Grandparents represent the culture and ideology of their generation, and they often convey concepts and consciousness consistent with their age in the communication with their grandchildren. Therefore, the inter-generational upbringing has a certain negative impact on the social development of children.

Purpose: Lifestyle modification and sedentary life have led to multiple comorbidities which necessitate exploitation of underutilized novel ingredients in daily life. This comprehensive review aimed at providing valuable insight into the diverse pharmacological activities of beetroot bioactive compounds and their health enhancing properties. Furthermore, this review explored emerging research by scientific community for utilization of beetroot in the development of novel functional food products. 

Materials and Methods: The scientific studies focusing on the biological activity and therapeutic potential of beetroot for health parameters were included in this study. Database search was made using google scholar, PubMed and research gate which generated a total of 200 papers. Out of which, only 63 met the inclusion criteria of this study. Inclusion criteria included literature focusing on beetroot’s bioavailability, plant pigments, bioactive compounds, health benefits, as well as studies describing food applications. This review includes studies between 2014 and 2023.

Findings: The main findings suggested that a prominent bioactive compound and natural betalain pigment in beetroot, exhibits potential anti-inflammatory, anti-carcinogenic and anti-depressive properties. The anti-oxidant activity of betalain is effective against oxidative stress and play a role in preventing and mitigating chronic diseases. Bioactive components including, nitrate content, betanin and betacyanin, potentially modulate blood pressure and promote cardiovascular health. Furthermore, beetroot derived polyphenols, carotenoids, vitamins and minerals contribute to bone health, immune function and overall well-being. Food product development based studies demonstrate an overall improvement in the nutritional and sensory profile.  

Implications to Theory, Practice and Policy: Further research on bioactive components of multiple varieties of beetroot is recommended to reassess the underlying mechanisms and optimal dosage for unlocking their potential for medicinal, nutraceuticals and dietary interventions. More research is needed by food industrialists and scientists to explore the potential of beetroot pigments as non-synthetic food additives particularly color enhancer in various food formulations.

Authors: Tishchenko Yuliya Sergeevna
Published: February 2024

The article is devoted to the concept of a circular economy, which has attracted significant attention from the government and business as a sustainable approach to resource management and economic development. The author analyzed the implemented and planned stages of the transition to a circular economy within the framework of existing business models, as well as the potential for further development and the problems associated with such transition. Based on the data obtained, the role of the Harmonized Commodity Description and Coding System (HS) in ensuring identification, traceability and correct customs control of recycled goods. The material discusses several areas for improving the HS in this area: the development of specific codes for the accurate classification of secondary goods, the introduction of terminology to accurately identify goods within the circular economy, as well as the integration of the HS with other international instruments, such as the Basel Convention, to ensure full control of secondary goods.

As a conclusion, this article argues for the need to discuss circular economy issues at future sessions of the World Customs Organization (WCO) and review the existing structure of the HS.
THE IMPACT OF CLIMATE CHANGE ON CUSTOMS REVENUES IN THE WAEMU ZONE
Authors: Soro Segba Jean
Published: February 2024

In recent years, the planet has been marked by major events: immigration, terrorism, armed conflicts and above all global warming which is attracting the attention of countries around the world and those of WAEMU in particular. Global warming leads to disruptions in the functioning of production cycles. Indeed, these countries which are essentially agricultural are facing several phenomena. The impact of climate change on customs revenues in the West African Economic and Monetary Union (WAEMU) area refers to the effects that climate variations, such as increased temperatures, extreme weather events, rising of sea level and changes in precipitation, can have on the revenue generated by customs activities in this region.

Agricultural production is falling sharply. This inevitably leads to a reduction in customs revenue. Customs revenues constitute the main means of development for these countries. This question is of capital importance insofar as it obliges States to adopt new policies. They should diversify areas of production and think about transforming products in order to increase added value. Furthermore, WAEMU States would benefit from taking an increasing interest in industrialization policies in order to minimize imports which weigh heavily on the trade balance because the effects of global warming will continue to grow.
