Philosophical Analysis of Sustainable Development Goals

Purpose: The general objective of the study was to examine philosophical analysis of Sustainable Development Goals. Methodology: The study adopted a desktop research methodology. Desk research refers to secondary data or that which can be collected without fieldwork. Desk research is basically involved in collecting data from existing resources hence it is often considered a low cost technique as compared to field research, as the main cost is involved in executive’s time, telephone charges and directories. Thus, the study relied on already published studies, reports and statistics. This secondary data was easily accessed through the online journals and library. Findings: The findings reveal that there exists a contextual and methodological gap relating to philosophical analysis of Sustainable Development Goals. Preliminary empirical review revealed the crucial interplay of ethical, epistemological, and metaphysical considerations in achieving global sustainability. It highlighted the SDGs' foundation on principles of equity, justice, and human rights, emphasizing the need for inclusive and context-sensitive knowledge systems. The analysis also prompted a rethinking of traditional development notions, advocating for a holistic view that includes social and environmental well-being. The conclusion stressed the importance of integrating these philosophical dimensions into policymaking to create effective, inclusive strategies for sustainable global progress. Unique Contribution to Theory, Practice and Policy: The Utilitarianism, Deontological Ethics and the Social Contract Theory may be used to anchor future studies on the philosophical analysis of SDGs. The study recommended integrating diverse ethical perspectives into development theories, emphasizing inclusive and participatory approaches in practice, and promoting integrated policy frameworks that align with the holistic nature of the SDGs. It highlighted the need for robust monitoring and evaluation mechanisms, enhanced global cooperation, and the incorporation of sustainability and ethical considerations into educational curricula. These recommendations aimed to ensure that development efforts were economically viable, socially just, and environmentally sustainable, ultimately fostering a more inclusive and effective pursuit of the SDGs.

Oral health promotion and dental care of children with microcephaly in the context of public health

The university's fundamental mission is to be a source of scientific knowledge, technological innovation, and academic public health practices, all the while being mindful of social responsibility. But when faced with children in vulnerable clinical conditions, what would this public and professional knowledge and practice be? Currently, there is a lack of oral health education programs aimed at children with microcephaly, including a protocol for preventive dental care. This study aims to describe the field experiences of the academic team of the Dental School of the State University of Southwest Bahia in oral public health practices in children with microcephaly based on the principles of universality, equity, and integrality. Extracurricular activities provide a dialogue between the university and society, where both environments teach and learn from each other, making the university not the only place where knowledge is shared. Consequently, professors and students must understand that in order to achieve a high quality education, the implementation of extracurriculars in their academic curriculum is extremely necessary.

Graphic Histories of Solidarity, in Solidarity

Revolutionary experiments require building revolutionary relationships. This praxis of material and social creativity to reorganise power dynamics and weave connections across weaponised divides, are evident in the content, the form and the backstory woven into Janet Biehl's Their Blood Got Mixed: Revolutionary Rojava and the War on ISIS. Written and illustrated by Janet Biehl, it is a graphic memoir that can be read as both an historical narrative and a blueprint of a contemporary revolutionary experiment that combines political theory and graphic art to tell the story of how ISIS has been driven back in Northern Syria by people fighting for a society based on principles of direct democracy, political secularism, gender equality, and ecological sustainability. Whereas in the past, after the liberation of Rojava in 2012, Biehl spent time interviewing leadership, this book relays her interviews with women across the region and across the various projects of reorganising and defending social, political, cultural and economic life in 2019 after four years of warfare against ISIS and the Turkish state. Reflecting on the relationships that make revolutionary history, and that produce artistic histories of revolutionary experiments, this review article considers the history in this book and of this book, in conversation with recently published graphic non-fiction, and draws on engaged scholarship concerned with the politics of collective knowledge production in and for movements of solidarity urgently needed in the face of the imploding crisis of colonial borders.

Distributional Incidence of Indirect Taxation on Consumer Groups in Sri Lanka: A Descriptive Study

This study investigates how the indirect tax burden was distributed among households under different aspects. Sri Lanka's tax structure represents more indirect tax and significantly less direct tax income. Direct taxes satisfy the equity principle of taxation, while indirect tax is violated. Direct taxes are imposed according to the ability to pay. Persons who have a higher income will pay a higher rate of income tax, and persons who have less income will pay a lower rate of income tax. Unlike direct taxes, indirect taxes are paid by both rich and poor persons irrespective of their income level. Thus, the burden of the indirect tax will be badly impacted on poor households because when they purchase goods and services from the market, they pay a significant portion of indirect taxes compared with the average income. A consumer survey was performed, and data were collected using a structured questionnaire under the light of the Stratified Convenient Sampling Method. One hundred fifteen commodity baskets were selected based on the Colombo Consumer Price Index under the broad categories of food and non-food and eleven subcategories of commodity groups. Colombo District was selected as the sample district. Four hundred eighty-two respondents were collected, representing low-income, middle-income, and high-income households. The descriptive and quantitative approach were used for the analysis. The findings of the study emphasized that the indirect tax burden rate of low-income households was significantly greater than the indirect tax burden rate of high-income households. The regressive effect was reflected in the findings, indicating that poor households are bearing a higher indirect tax burden rate in terms of average income and average expenditure. The derived Lorenz Curves and the calculated Gini Coefficients also emphasized the regressive effect of the indirect tax, presenting an upward-sloping Lorenz Curve and negative Gini Coefficient values.

Managing professional socialization of women in engineering and technical work: challenges and solutions

The article explores the management of professional socialization of women in the engineering and technical fields, an important aspect in the context of global efforts towards achieving gender equality and sustainable development. In the face of socio-political instability and considering the adoption of the National Strategy for Action in the Interests of Women for 2023-2030, this topic is particularly significant for Russia. The study aims to analyze the problems and challenges faced by women in the engineering and technical sectors and to identify effective measures to support their professional socialization. The research is based on biographical interviews with female educators (N=19, 2019) and practicing engineers, as well as expert interviews with university representatives (N=25, 2024) and document analysis. The study identified two main issues: limited involvement of women engineers in research activities and gender inequality, along with limited career opportunities for women in this field, which is often characterized by an organizational environment that does not fully adhere to gender equality principles. Key challenges in achieving gender equality in the engineering and technical sectors have been identified, including ensuring equal conditions for women's professional growth and overcoming persistent gender stereotypes about their professional roles and capabilities. Solutions proposed include measures to increase women's involvement in research and support their professional development, as well as creating favorable conditions for career advancement in the engineering and technical fields.

Administrative Contract in Administrative Matters

Administrative contracts are also known in Slovenian law, where they are mainly used as an instrument to regulate in more detail the (previously issued) administrative act, and generally cannot replace the issuance of an administrative act. Namely, the General Administrative Procedure Act only provides for settlement between parties with opposing (private law) interests. However, the elements of administrative contracts as an ADR mechanism can be found in other (sectoral) legislation, but are often very deficiently regulated, leading to the application of private law rules that govern contractual relations and which are not adapted to administrative law relations. Given all the advantages of alternative dispute resolution and shortcomings of the current legal framework, Slovenian law should also – while respecting all the specific features of administrative decision-making and following the example of selected comparative-law regimes – systematically regulate subordinate administrative contracts (replacing administrative acts), at least for some administrative matters. They should be limited only to those areas of administrative functioning where the administration has a certain margin of discretion in determining the content of the decision on the administrative matter. This means, on the other hand, that the possibility of a subordinate administrative contract should normally be excluded in the case of legally binding decision-making since the content of such a decision is predetermined and the administrative authority is bound by it (principle of legality). However, the administrative authority must have a specific power to conclude such a contract in a (sectoral) law – a general power to conclude subordinate administrative contracts is not sufficient due to the risk of infringing the principle of equality and legality.

Implementasi Perbandingan Asas Equality Before The Law Dalam Sistem Peradilan Pidana Di Indonesia Dengan Negara Lain

Equality before the law is one of the most important and powerful principles in Indonesia's system of law enforcement. As a law-abiding state, certainly the application of this principle illustrates that every citizen has the same degree or position in the law without exception. The law presented no distinction for any party, it was expressly explained in chapter 27 of the verse (2) the 1945 law. The study aims to see if there is a link between the principle of equality before the law and Indonesia's criminal justice system and how it applies. In writing the study using the normative type of legal study method using the research approach: a legal approach, a conceptual approach and compartive approach. From this study, the conclusion is that the implemntation of equality before the law must be interpreted dynamically, not statically, both in Indonesia and other countries. This means that Indonesia, Jerman and Belanda view that equality before the law must be harmonized with the same treatment for everyone. Justice carried out by the state must provide benefits to all people, and the ask of law is to maintain justice so that it can reach all people without exception. Everyone has the same acces to justice regardless of whether they are rich or poor.

What does inclusion look like within an experiential teaching and assessing reflective learning model? Utilising authentic assessment to foster shared social membership

ABSTRACT The International Covenant on Economic, Social, and Cultural Rights calls for accessible higher education (HE), stating that it is necessary for the full development of the human personality and the sense of its dignity. Within this context, our research is centred on the Aristotelian principles of equity and fairness. To achieve these outcomes, our completed, Stage One research (2008–2019, 5603 participants), took place inside the university context and focused on designing out identified barriers to access and participation in mandatory assessment tasks for all students, including those with a disability. Building on our Stage One learnings and to generate increased inclusion, Stage Two involved the development of authentic HE assessment tasks which generate external , reflective, and inclusive practitioners who value shared social membership. This research seeks to support and strengthen the core philosophy of HE and the guiding principles of the participating university, Queensland University of Technology, which state: ‘ … the real world asks us … to guide it towards collective benefit.’ To achieve these outcomes, this university ‘ … partners with students to develop their self-knowledge, professional integrity and ethical leadership to enable them to become … global citizens who create positive social change’. This Stage Two research has been facilitated by the unique, author created integration of the Teaching and Assessing of Reflective Learning Model and the Experiential Learning Model (TARLEM). TARLEM focuses simultaneously on developing discipline-based content, the mastery of reflective practice skills, and an understanding of the reason for the task in terms of the social impacts of international business decision-making. The cross-cultural, cross-discipline and online/on campus participants are enrolled students in a UG IBU degree (622 responses).e

RENUNCIATION OF INHERITANCE BY KOSOVAR WOMEN: DESIRE OR INJUSTICE? A CASE LAW PERSPECTIVE

Background: The right to inherit is one of the rights guaranteed by the Constitution and legal provisions. Every citizen is entitled to this privilege without exception. Even though this right is protected by the Constitution, barely 23% of women in Kosovo are officially registered as heirs. When women exercise their right to refuse inheritance, they mostly give up that privilege in favour of male heirs. Unquestionably, customary law impacts this choice. Influenced by religious and customary rights that stipulate that men are entitled to inherit, women prefer to give up their claim to inherit, which accounts for the low percentage of female heirs. Despite the fact that the right of inheritance is regulated by law under the principle of equality, the real situation shows something else. This article will analyse inheritance law and the influence of customary law, which has led many women to forfeit their rights. This issue discriminates against Kosovar women, denying them their rightful inheritance. These analyses will determine whether customary law or other factors have impacted Kosovar women's unequal inheritance rights compared to men. Ultimately, it raises the question: are these women victims of injustice, or have they freely decided to give up their inheritance? Methods: In this paper, several methods were employed to reach a conclusion, including analytical, comparative, historical and normative approaches. The analytical method was used to examine the phenomenon of women renouncing their inheritance rights and the judicial decisions where women have given up their right of inheritance. The normative method examined the legal provisions that directly regulated the right to renounce the inheritance. The historical method played a crucial role in illustrating the evolution of inheritance rights and its influence on women's contemporary perspectives. Finally, the comparative method facilitated a comparison of the legal regulation of inheritance rights in Kosovo with those in other countries in the region. Results and Conclusions: In legal terms, the right of inheritance treats all heirs equally, regardless of gender, but in practice, a very low percentage of women inherit, mostly giving this right to male heirs. Many factors have influenced this result, such as the influence of customary law and religious law, but also the low number of employed women. After analysing this matter, it was seen that the main solution is to raise awareness among women that all heirs are equal, regardless of gender, ensuring the law is applied fairly to all heirs. To address the reduction of women renouncing their inheritance, several legal changes are recommended. One such change is requiring the declaration of renunciation of inheritance to be made before a notary and registered in court to determine legal deadlines. Additionally, the reasons for renouncing inheritance should be explicitly stated within the set timeframe. A more radical measure that would ensure that women do not renounce their rightful inheritance according to the law, and in this way, they would be free from the influences of society, is to change the law by removing the right to renounce the inheritance. Thus, all legal heirs would be forced to accept the inheritance due to them by law.

Pelanggaran Hak Asasi dalam Rumah Tangga Perspektif Hukum Keluarga Islam dan Kitab Undang-Undang Hukum Positif Indonesia

This study aims to analyze violations of human rights within the household from the perspectives of Islamic family law and the Positive Law of Indonesia. The research methodology employed is a descriptive-analytical approach, involving data collection from various sources such as literature, legal documents, and case studies. The findings indicate that violations of human rights within the household often occur in various forms, including physical, psychological, and sexual violence, and neglect. In the context of Islamic family law, principles of justice, equality, and family welfare serve as guidelines for addressing cases of human rights violations within the household. On the other hand, the Positive Law of Indonesia provides a strong legal framework for protecting individual rights within the household, although its implementation may require further improvement. Therefore, collaborative efforts among legal institutions, civil society, and religious organizations are necessary to enhance awareness, protection, and enforcement of human rights within the context of the household.

Vulnerabilities mediating the Healthcare encounter: by an intersectional agency.

This essay elucidates the Healthcare and Intersectionality notions to prompt reflections on the interaction between healthcare professionals and individuals referred to as Nanás: elderly, poor, and Black women who represent a historically marginalized profile throughout Brazilian history. By delving into the arguments about the concept of Intersectionality and the multifaceted Care dimensions, it becomes apparent that there is a pressing need to broaden the perspective on women who access healthcare services, as they are inherently shaped by their life experiences. Moreover, it is imperative to acknowledge how the intersecting factors inherent in their profiles can influence the approach taken by those providing Care, which underscores the essentiality of an intersectional agency on the part of the agents involved in this encounter, namely the Nanás and healthcare workers, to effectively uphold the principles of comprehensiveness and equity within the Unified Health System (SUS).

The social state in Russia and Belarus as a complex constitutional principle

In the modern period, the Russian and Belarusian states have observed the development of social relations related to the implementation of the constitutional principle of a social state, as well as the consolidation of processes aimed at interaction and searching for a balance of interests and responsibilities in the social and economic spheres. The relevance of the topic is determined by the discussion on issues related to the definition of the concept and essence of a social state, the constitutional content of such principles and requirements of a social state as social justice, social equality, a decent standard of living, free development, mutual social responsibility, assessment of the influence of the practice of the constitutional courts of the Russian Federation and the Republic of Belarus for the development and implementation of the principle of a social state in the countries under consideration. It is concluded that the concept of a social state acts as a multidimensional characteristic of the state, reflecting, firstly, the conceptual focus of state policy on ensuring social protection of citizens based on the principles of social equality, social justice, ensuring a decent life, free development, as well as other principles and requirements, reflecting the social orientation of public authority, and, secondly, a model of relations between the state and the individual, functioning on the basis of mutual social and legal responsibility. The principle of a social state is a complex basic constitutional principle - a legal narrative that contains specific principles and requirements for the social nature of the state system and predetermines the system of social human rights and their guarantees, as well as the social responsibility of subjects of public legal relations.

(Re)Appraising Our Archival Identity: Demystifying the Process and Changing the Dialogue about Promotion and Tenure for Academic Archivists

ABSTRACT Within the archival discourse, there has been minimal research or dialogue about the processes and experiences for academic archivists associated with earning promotion and tenure. Recent reviews of the literature suggest that this topic remains largely unexplored in archivists’ professional and scholarly conversations, despite its pivotal influence on job security, advancement, and identity for those working in academia. This article intends to explain and demystify the procedures and best practices for navigating promotion and tenure by providing guidance and insight for archivists throughout their careers. Furthermore, the authors aim to expose the culture of silence surrounding the promotion and tenure process for archivists while also underscoring the power dynamics involved in evaluation activities. This research explores how these actions have impacted historically underserved and marginalized groups and encourages our archives community to counter these forces through professional awareness and by embracing and applying diversity, equity, inclusion, belonging, and accessibility principles. The authors advocate for a framework that solidifies, clarifies, and encourages increased transparency in the promotion and tenure process and offer profession-wide recommendations to help make this change. Finally, this article serves as a call to action for rethinking our professional identity by championing our collective contributions to the higher education landscape and distinguishing the specialized expertise of archivists from that of our librarian colleagues in the academy.

The change in the legal classification of the criminal offense and the right to defense in the trial

Abstract Due process of law is not just a right. As a constitutional principle, it extends to some basic human rights and freedoms, with which legal procedures are carried out. It is a guarantee of vital importance in any democratic society, the responsibility for ensuring which falls on the justice system. The right to due legal process is characterized by duality. On the one hand, it is presented as a guarantee for every citizen against the unjust actions of state authorities and on the other hand it constitutes an obligation not to violate the rights of citizens without a regular legal procedure. In order to make the protection of basic human rights and freedoms as efficient as possible, the constitutional legislator has provided legal means of constitutional control. The control exercised by the Constitutional Court, when the individual claims the violation of this principle, also appears in the form of a fundamental right in itself and becomes possible through an individual constitutional appeal. Respect for due legal process according to the Constitution is sanctioned by article 42 of the Constitution of Albania where “freedom, property and rights recognized by the Constitution and by law cannot be violated without due process of law.” This provision obliges all public authorities to respect freedom and other human rights. As a guarantee for a due legal process, every person has the right for his case to be heard in a due, public, legal process and within a reasonable time by an independent and impartial tribunal, established by law, which shall decide both disputes concerning his rights and obligations of a civil nature, as well as for the validity of any criminal charges against him.” Article 15 of the Constitution of the Republic of Albania provides that basic human rights and freedoms are indivisible, inviolable and underlie the entire legal order. Based on the constitution, during the criminal process, everyone has the right to be informed immediately and in detail about the accusation against him, about his rights, as well as to be given the opportunity to notify his family or relatives. Everyone has the right to defend himself or with the help of a legal defense lawyer of his choice, to communicate freely and privately with him and to be provided with free defense when he/she does not have sufficient means. The right of defense must be real and its exercise must not be hindered, but the courts must take all legal measures in function of the fair process in order to give the individual the opportunity to defend himself in compliance with the principle of equality of arms, creating the opportunity for the accused to familiarize himself with the materials, evidence and results of the investigation in advance, to prepare and to exercise an effective defense with arguments in his favor in order to oppose the charge brought. Each party must be given a reasonable opportunity to present its case, under conditions, which do not place it in a less favorable position vis-à-vis the opponent. Main objective of this manuscript is the right of defense of the individual during the change of the legal qualification of the criminal offense, analyzing the criteria for its realization in the ordinary trial and further specifically in the trial.

Sex and gender in sports nutrition research: bridging the gap.

The Olympic Games have grown to be the largest, gender-equal sporting event in the world, and the International Olympic Committee is committed to gender equality in sports encouraging and supporting the promotion of women in sports at all levels and in all structures with a view to implementing the principle of equality of men and women (IOC, 2023). Women competed for the first time at the 1900 Olympic Games in Paris, and the number of women competing has grown exponentially over the last 100 years, so an estimated 5494 female athletes (48 %) competed in the Summer Olympic Games 2021 in Tokyo. Supporting women (alongside men) in achieving optimum performance is crucial, and understanding that there are sex and gender gaps in sports nutrition research is important. One reason for this gap is the historical bias in sports and exercise science research towards male participants. This has led to a poor understanding of the unique physiological and nutritional needs of female athletes. In summary, a balanced approach is crucial to address the nutritional needs of both male and female athletes. Researchers should continue exploring this important area to optimise performance and health for all athletes. The aim of this review is to summarise current sports nutrition literature and highlight research that seeks to understand and address where the gaps are with respect to several key areas in sports nutrition recommendations that can impact advice and practice with both males and females.

GHANDIAN PHILOSOPHY OF NON-VIOLENCE IN THE ITALIAN CONSTITUTION

This article explores the connection between Mahatma Gandhi’s philosophy of non-violence and the fundamental principles of the 1948 Italian Constitution, analysing how Gandhian values have influenced the architecture of rights and freedoms enshrined in the Italian Constitutional Charter. The article begins with a reflection on work as an instrument of personal emancipation and collective growth, a concept that Gandhi considered central to the development of a just and harmonious society. It examines how Article 1 of the Italian Constitution, which proclaims Italy as ‘a democratic republic, founded on labour’, embodies these principles, highlighting the role of work not only as a means of subsistence, but as the foundation of the welfare and progress of the entire nation.Continuing, the article analyses the principle of formal and substantive equality enshrined in Article 3 of the Italian Constitution, relating it to Gandhi’s struggle against the caste system in India. The Italian Constitution embraces the concept of equality not only before the law, but also in the removal of economic and social obstacles that prevent the effective enjoyment of rights by all citizens.Special attention is devoted to Article 11 of the Constitution, which repudiates war as an instrument of offence against the freedom of other peoples and promotes peace and international cooperation. This principle is closely linked to the Gandhian philosophy of non-violence, which rejects the use of force not only in the personal sphere, but also in international relations, proposing instead dialogue and diplomacy as tools for conflict resolution.The article also explores the principle of the presumption of innocence, enshrined in Article 27 of the Italian Constitution, in contrast to the repressive practices of authoritarian regimes, both colonial and fascist, which assumed the guilt of anyone who opposed the established power. It is emphasised that the Italian Constitution represents an important step towards a fairer justice that respects human dignity.Finally, the role of science and freedom of teaching is examined, with a focus on Article 33 of the Constitution, which guarantees scientific freedom as a pillar of human progress. The article highlights the Gandhian vision of a science at the service of humanity, criticising the use of technology without ethical and human considerations, and arguing for the importance of science education that promotes open debate and respect for divergent opinions.Ultimately, the Italian Constitution, through its fundamental principles, not only reflects the Gandhian vision of a just and peaceful society, but also embodies a relentless commitment to the pursuit of truth. This commitment, like truth itself, is an ongoing journey that requires the active and conscious participation of every citizen to build a society in which justice, equality and human dignity are constantly pursued and realised.

재건축초과이익환수제도의 존재와 폐지의 담론

According to the management status of apartment complexes in Seoul at the end of 2023, there are 960 apartment complexes that are over 30 years old, accounting for 25.4% of the total, and the number of apartment complexes that will be over 30 years old within the next 10 years is expected to reach 57.5%. Therefore, it is expected that the controversy over reconstruction will continue in the future. However, in 2006, the Act on Recovery of Excessive Reconstruction Profits came into effect, and the Reconstruction Excessive Profits Recovery System, which recovers up to 50% of development profits resulting from reconstruction, has consistently raised unconstitutional claims regarding infringement of property rights, violation of the principle of equality, and double taxation. It has been done. Under this background, the National Assembly proposed on June 5, 2024, the 'Abolition of the Act on the Recovery of Reconstruction Excess Profits', which would abolish the recovery of excess profits from reconstruction. Recently, the Minister of Land, Infrastructure and Transport also stated his position that the comprehensive real estate tax and reconstruction excess profit recovery system should be abolished. Therefore, this study examines the theoretical discourse on the maintenance or abolition of the reconstruction tax profit recovery system, which is the subject of controversy.

Principles of the victim’s representation in criminal proceedings

Based on the analysis of the provisions of criminal procedure legislation, provisions of international legal treaties, and European Union law, and on the basis of generalisation of theoretical positions of scholars, and also taking into account the proven experience of certain European States, it has been substantiated that the principle of victim representation is one of the fundamental principles of criminal proceedings. It has been proved that representation of victims in criminal proceedings is an indispensable guarantee of the principle of equality before law and court, access to justice and binding nature of court decisions, competitiveness of the parties and freedom to present their evidence to court and to prove their convincing nature before the court, etc. It has been determined that on the way to European integration, Ukraine may need to revise certain provisions of the institute of victim representation in criminal proceedings, in particular, to determine the grounds for mandatory free-of-charge participation of a victim’s representative, at least in some categories of cases. It has been argued that victim representation should be carried out in compliance with the general principles of criminal proceedings, as well as the principles of: voluntariness; legality; competence; initiative; cooperation and effective communication with other participants to criminal proceedings. It is suggested that these provisions should be used in further scientific research as a basis for reforming criminal procedure law in the context of introducing proven foreign practices into the victim representation activities. It has been determined that the prospects for further research should include the mechanisms for implementing international standards of victim representation, problematic aspects of victim representation in criminal proceedings, and the principles of representation of a witness, a civil plaintiff, and a civil defendant.

Postmodernism Challenges for Muslim Schools and Universities in Malaysia: The Role of AI Pedagogical Integration into Islamic Education

In today’s rapidly changing world, postmodern civilization has been accused of undermining traditional, religious universal values and socio-economic inequality. The intersection of Islamic philosophy and secular education creates profound tension, as Islamic teachings on justice, equality and religious principles often clash with Western secular values, leading to issues such as incompetent graduates, LGBTQ disorder, and over- capitalism conflicts. Schools and universities also grapple with significant challenges like zero hands-on skills, large class sizes, lack of resources, and student behavioral ongoing issues, which impede effective teaching and learning. Additionally, non-inclusive students, especially those with disabilities or from minority ethnic backgrounds, face bullying, discrimination and difficulty accessing resources, exacerbating their isolation and hindering academic performance. This study utilized a qualitative research methodology grounded in the researchers’ nearly twenty years of teaching experience at private universities across Malaysia, including at UNITAR Malaysia, Limkokwing University of Creative Technology (LUCT), the Management and Science University (MSU), and Tunku Abdul Rahman University College (TARUC). The research was informed by direct classroom engagement, a mentoring program, and involvement in academic events administration, offering deep insights into student challenges and enriching data collection. The methodology included providing motivational support and counseling to students with special needs and those underperforming. A critical, reflexive approach was adopted to address potential biases, and results were verified through member-checking and triangulation. This comprehensive approach enabled a thorough exploration of the Malaysian educational context, identifying challenges and themes, yet providing a robust framework for understanding student experiences and pedagogical strategies. The study is structured into four sections: methodology, challenges in Malaysia’s educational system, the incorporation of Qur’anic metaphysics in tertiary education, and the application of interactive AI-pedagogy technologies. The study revealed practical recommendations for educators, policy makers, and researchers, aiming to bridge the gap between Islamic principles and secular educational practices. Using Malaysia as a case study, the research explores the potential of a holistic approach to Islamic education in addressing the postmodern and post-pandemic challenges by Muslim society. It is worth noting that the study is specifically focused on Muslim education in Malaysia. Therefore, its findings may not be generalizable to other Muslim countries or societies. Nevertheless, the research is expected to provide a profound perspective on addressing postmodernism challenges in the Muslim pedagogical world.

Domestic Revolution: Aligning Career and Household with Gender Equality Principles

Domestic Revolution: Aligning Career and Household with Gender Equality Principles
