Abstract: Education plays a crucial role in preventing child labour; conversely, child labour significantly hinders the achievement of Education for All (EFA). Therefore, comprehending the relationship between education and child labour is essential for realizing both EFA and the goals of eliminating child labour. This article is part of the broader initiatives by UCW aimed at enhancing the understanding of the connections between education and child labour, offering a concise summary of pertinent research and identifying key knowledge gaps. The study largely corroborates.....

Abstract: Summary Acculturation has been the empirical foundation of the anthropological history of humanity, and has integrated the history of language, society, and culture. Acculturation refers to all cultural events resulting from the acquisition, modification, or reinterpretation of a culture, particularly the reception and assimilation of cultural elements specific to one social group by another. The term acculturation became widely accepted among American anthropologists in the late 19th century to refer to the changes that occur when social groups with different cultural....

Abstract: Neonatal mortality remains a critical indicator of maternal and child health, particularly in socioeconomically vulnerable populations such as adolescent and young adult mothers. This ecological temporal trend study analyzed neonatal mortality rates in Bahia, Brazil, from 2011 to 2020 among infants born to mothers aged 10–19 and 20–24 years, using publicly available data from Mortality Information System (SIM) and Live Birth Information System (SINASC). Neonatal mortality coefficients (overall, early [0–6 days], and late [7–27 days] per 1,000 live births) were calculated and evaluated via simple linear regression with Newey-West correction to determine annual.....

Abstract: This study explores the impact of physical disabilities on English language acquisition among undergraduate students in Telangana and the role of assistive technologies in addressing these challenges. Physically challenged students face various barriers in learning English, including physical, educational, and social obstacles. These barriers hinder their ability to develop key language skills, such as reading, writing, speaking, and listening. The study highlights how assistive technologies like screen readers, speech-to-text tools, and adaptive keyboards can significantly improve language.....

Abstract: This paper investigates the influence of green accounting on corporate financial performance across key sectors including manufacturing, energy, agriculture, IT, and services. With increasing environmental concerns and regulatory pressures, firms are integrating environmental costs into their financial decision-making. This study applies a mixed-methods approach, including financial ratio analysis and qualitative case insights, to assess sector-specific outcomes. The findings reveal that while short-term financial burdens may occur, green accounting significantly contributes to long-term profitability, brand value, and sustainability—particularly in environmentally sensitive industries.
