 Abstract

This study aimed to investigate the willingness of Nigerian students to receive the COVID-19 vaccine using data mining techniques. The study found that only a small percentage of respondents were willing to get vaccinated, with sociodemographic factors such as gender, age, and level of education driving vaccine hesitancy. Additionally, preferred type of information source, specific mistrust, and generalized beliefs were also significant factors driving vaccine hesitancy. The study recommends that school authorities implement systematic interventions to reduce vaccine hesitancy among students, including rebuilding trust in national health authorities and promoting educational awareness campaigns that offer clear and transparent information about the safety and effectiveness of COVID-19 vaccines. Further research is needed to identify the underlying reasons for vaccine hesitancy among Nigerian students.

 Abstract

With the swift advances in technology, producers already are bringing out smarter televisions, smartphones, as well as other computing equipment at an exponential rate. To meet the needs of customers all across, an increasing number of electronic products are being made, which consumes more resources. Global production of electronic waste reached 44.7 million tonnes in 2016, and by 2021, it is anticipated to increase by 17% to 52.2 million tonnes. Mercury, lead, and brominated flame-retardants are just a few of the hazardous products found in e-waste. A rise of 9.2 Mt over the preceding five years is anticipated to have brought e-waste generation to a historic amount of 53.6 million metric tonnes (Mt) in 2019. A recent projection from the World Resources Institute predicts that by 2030, the global EEE output will reach 74.7 Mt. (WRI).

 Abstract

Micropropagation of Ashwagandha was done via the process of Plant Shoot tip Tissue Culture techniques where the explants were taken as shoot tips from stock plants of ashwagandha, and growth hormone was taken as BAP, in nutrient media of Murashige and Skoog. Five nutrient medias were prepared using five different hormone concentrations of BAP (2mg/L, 2.5mg/L, 3mg/L, 3.5mg/L, 4mg/L). Ten shoot tips were taken from stock plants and surface sterilised for inoculation in the media jars (2 explants per jar). After inoculation, the inoculated explants were incubated in the incubation room in photoperiod racks. The room temperature was maintained at 24-28 degrees celsius, where 17 hours of daytime and 7 hours of night time were provided to them. The explants were kept in incubation for 25 days, and it was observed that the explants which were inoculated in the media with hormone concentration of 3mg/L, responded the best, providing a total of 10 branches and final length of 4.7 centimetres, from the initial stage of having 3 branches and 2.1 centimetres in length.

 Abstract

Women empowerment is an essential aspect of achieving gender equality and fostering inclusive societies. However, empowerment cannot be limited to external factors such as socio-political rights or economic opportunities alone. It is crucial to recognize the significance of empowering a woman's mind, which encompasses her intellectual, emotional, and psychological well-being. This abstract explores the concept of empowering her mind within the context of women empowerment, emphasizing the importance of addressing internal barriers and promoting self-belief, resilience, and agency. To empower women holistically, it is essential to acknowledge and dismantle the patriarchal structures and societal norms that hinder their progress. However, alongside these external challenges, internalized beliefs and self-doubt can act as formidable obstacles for women striving for empowerment. This abstract argues that empowering her mind involves challenging gender stereotypes, nurturing self-confidence, and cultivating a growth mindset. Empowering her mind encompasses providing women with educational opportunities that foster critical thinking, creativity, and problem-solving skills. By equipping women with knowledge and skills, we enable them to actively participate in decision-making processes, challenge discriminatory practices, and contribute to their communities' betterment. Additionally, it is crucial to create safe spaces for women to express their thoughts, ideas, and aspirations, encouraging them to pursue their passions and dreams. Furthermore, empowering her mind necessitates addressing emotional well-being. Women often face societal pressures, stereotypes, and expectations that can lead to self-doubt, anxiety, and mental health challenges. By promoting mental well-being and emotional resilience, we enable women to overcome adversity, persevere through challenges, and harness their full potential. Lastly, empowering her mind involves fostering a sense of agency and autonomy. Women should have the freedom to make choices regarding their bodies, careers, and lives. Providing access to resources, mentorship, and support networks can facilitate women's empowerment journeys, ensuring they have the tools and opportunities to shape their own destinies. In conclusion, women's empowerment goes beyond external factors; it necessitates empowering her mind. By addressing internal barriers, nurturing self-belief, and fostering emotional well-being, women can transcend societal expectations and stereotypes. Empowering her mind is a crucial pathway to achieving women empowerment, enabling women to take charge of their lives, contribute meaningfully to society, and shape a more equitable future for all.

 Abstract

The Indian economy has undergone significant changes in recent decades, transitioning from a period of economic controls and limited market orientation to becoming one of the fastest-growing economies in the world. This transformation has been driven by economic reforms, liberalization, and a focus on fostering entrepreneurship and innovation. The period of 2000-2014 witnessed notable progress in reducing government controls, opening up sectors to private investment, and implementing market-friendly policies. This era saw increased economic growth, improved business environment, and increased foreign direct investment. The legacy of controls from the pre-reform era was gradually dismantled, allowing for greater economic dynamism and integration with the global economy. From 2014 to 2022, India continued its growth trajectory with initiatives such as Make in India, Digital India, and financial inclusion. Efforts were made to address infrastructure gaps, enhance ease of doing business, and promote sustainable development. Challenges in areas like income inequality, inadequate infrastructure, poverty, and unemployment persisted and required attention.
