Climate change-triggered vulnerability assessment of the flood-prone communities in Bangladesh: A gender perspective

Despite a significant development in vulnerability scholarship, how climatic drivers compounding with non-climatic forces cause differential vulnerability to climatic change is very scant. The purpose of this research is to illustrate the differential vulnerability of rural populations to floods in Bangladesh. To achieve this goal, empirical data – both primary and secondary – were procured. A quantitative research design was applied using a structured interview technique to collect field data. Secondary data on rainfall and temperature were collected from the Bangladesh Meteorological Department (BMD). We assessed gender differential vulnerability using Hahn et al.’s Livelihood Vulnerability Index (LVI). Our empirical findings revealed that women had a greater vulnerability to flooding with an LVI score of 0.550 compared to their men counterparts (0.484). Vulnerability varies in terms of health, water, food, sanitation, socio-demographic aptitudes, and agriculture-based livelihood, and floods. We also found that women's adaptive capacities (e.g., knowledge, and skills) were more potential to undermine flood vulnerability. While both men and women experienced high flood exposure, women were highly sensitive to flood hazards because of their social roles, locations, unequal access to decision-making power, and resource entitlements. Also, the intersection of diverse social disparities undermines adaptive capacity and reshapes exposure and sensitivity to floods. Our research, therefore, suggested that risk-driven plans and policy interventions are required to reduce the impacts of intersectional factors that cause greater gender-differentiated vulnerability. Future research further can examine how places and multifaced social factors interact and intersect in producing differential susceptibility to climate change in the developing world.

PUBLIC PERCEPTION IN IMPLEMENTING HEALTH PROTOCOLS AS PRECAUTION AGAINST COVID-19 ON HEALTH BELIEF MODEL THEORY

Various efforts have been made to prevent Covid-19, but they have not made us utterly free from Covid-19 and can live normally again as before the pandemic. An integrated model is needed to improve public health behavior in preventing Covid-19 through increasing public awareness, health services, and appropriate legal regulations. Concurrent embedded mixed methods analysis was used, where quantitative and qualitative data were taken simultaneously and then analyzed to conclude. The Quantitative data measuring public health behavior is based on a health belief model questionnaire with a sample of 235 people. Qualitative data measuring health services and legal regulations were conducted using structured interview techniques with nine respondents as heads of Health service and sub-district leaders in Batubara Regency, selected by purposive sampling based on urban and rural areas. Correlation analysis between variables obtained correlation results with a weak relationship (r = 0.21-0.40), namely perceptions of vulnerability, severity, self-ability, instructions for action, and knowledge. Meanwhile, the perception of benefits and barriers has a moderate correlation (r=0.41-0.60). The results of multivariate correlation showed only four variables that have a correlation, namely perceptions of obstacles, benefits, instructions for action, and knowledge. Health services through preventive, promotive, and curative measures are classified as good, but the application of legal regulations still needs to be improved, so the results are not optimal. Efforts to improve legal regulations must consistently increase public awareness in preventing Covid-19 in Batubara Regency.

Integrating Environmentally Friendly Management of Water Resources toward Ecological and Socio-Economic Sustainability

In small-scale reservoir management, ecological factors must be a top priority, because the sustainability of the ecosystem in the reservoir is very important to maintain sustainable water availability. Efforts to maintain water quality, reduce pollution and maintain the balance of the ecosystem in the reservoir must be carried out consistently. In an effort to maintain the sustainability of small-scale reservoir management, collaboration between the government, local communities and other related parties is needed. By prioritizing ecological, social and economic aspects in a balanced way, it is hoped that the management of water resources in small-scale reservoirs can run in a sustainable manner, provide benefits to local communities, and preserve the surrounding environment. The research method used in this study is to use quantitative methods with a total sample of 137 respondents. Data collection techniques used observation and structured interview techniques to collect data on ecological, social and economic factors that affect the sustainability of small-scale reservoirs. The analysis technique used is the SEM (Structural Equation Modeling) statistical test with AMOS program. Based on the results of the research conducted, it can be concluded that the first hypothesis which states the influence of ecological factors on the sustainability of small-scale reservoirs cannot be accepted. Then the second and third hypotheses show that social and economic factors together have a significant influence on the sustainability of small-scale reservoirs. This shows that in the management of water resources in small-scale reservoirs, not only ecological factors need to be considered, but also social and economic factors.

Online Learning As a Tool for the Education System in the Context of Digitalisation

Online learning has tended to increase its use in the education system since the beginning of the pandemic. The article aims to empirically investigate the effectiveness of online learning as a tool for the education system in the context of digitalization. The study is based on the use of a structured interview technique and an analysis of the results of a survey of Ukrainian university students. To ensure organization and self-discipline, comprehension, learning, and assimilation of learning material, it is important to ensure a sufficient level of interactivity and teacher-student interaction, feedback, and guidance to students in an adequate time frame. A well-functioning feedback system is a supportive and essential element for student learning. Classical deadlines set by the teacher for assignments are also a valid method in online learning. Students noted the importance of creativity in the teacher's presentation of the task and the importance of the limitations of the methods by which the task can be solved. Timely revision, and evaluation by the teacher of the work, the task also encourage students to put a higher level of effort into their online learning. Online synchronous seminars in ZOOM are more impactful and motivating than recorded video lectures, and presentations which are available to students in asynchronous mode. An essential method of online learning was noted by the students to complete individual written assignments on the studied topic immediately after its presentation. The teacher's explanations and live synchronous conversation were also effective in online learning. Continuous, systematic educator monitoring of the progress and attendance at the online classes encouraged students to attend lectures but was not a major method for ensuring synchronous attendance.
