Abstract:
Viewing people and other animals elicits social and emotional processes. Similarly, robots are sometimes seen as social agents, but limited emotion-priming research for robots exists. Fifty-nine participants completed three sessions of an emotion recognition task, primed with a dog, robot or random motion (control) video. There was no significant effect from exposure to dog videos (or control) on emotional recognition; however, participants performed significantly worse following robot exposure. A follow-up study of 184 participants) included new videos of all stimuli. Similarly, no significant effects occurred after dog exposure, but robot priming decreased performance. Robot priming appears to worsen emotion recognition, which is interesting. This may be due to motor resonance priming - mimicking observed behavior and actions - or due to pre-existing stereotypes of robots and perceived experimental demands. Further studies should include controlled variations of all videos and live interactions to compare priming effects on emotion recognition.

Abstract:
The simulation framework we propose for complex path planning problems with multiagent systems focuses on the sheepdog problem for handling distributed autonomous robot systems – an extension of the pursuit problem for handling one prey robot and multiple predator robot. The sheepdog problem involves a more complex issue in which multiple dog robot chase and herd multiple sheep robot. We use the Boids model and cellular automata to model sheep flocking and chase and herd behavior for dog robots. We conduct experiments using a Sheepdog problem simulator and study cooperative behavior.

Abstract:
If a robot system can take various shapes, then it can play various roles, such as humanoid, dog robot, and robot arm. A modular robot is a robot system in which robots are configured using multiple modules, and it is possible to configure robots of other shapes by varying the combinations of the modules. In conventional modular robots, the shape is restricted by gravity, and configurable shapes are limited. In this study, we propose a gravity compensation modular robot to solve this problem. This paper describes the design and prototyping of the gravity compensation modular robot, and provides examples of robot shapes configured using the gravity compensation modules and motion experiments of the robots. In the experiments, there were motions that the robots could perform and could not perform. We considered the lack in the gravity compensation level and module rigidity as the main factor of the failures. This paper also discusses the solutions to these problems.

Abstract:
Biomimetic robot is a new branch of researched field which is developing quickly in recent years. Some of the popular biomimetic robots are fish robot, snake robot, dog robot, dragonfly robot, etc. Among the biomimetic underwater robots, fish robot and snake robot are mostly concerned. In this paper, we study about an optimization method to find the design parameters of fish robot. First, we analyze the dynamic model of the 3-joint Carangiform fish robot by using Lagrange method. Then the Genetic Algorithm (GA) is used to find the optimal lengths’ values of fish robot’s links. The constraint of this optimization problem is that the values of fish robot’s links are chosen that they can make fish robot swim with the desired straight velocity. Finally, some simulation results are presented to prove the effectiveness of the proposed method

Abstract:
To understand how to improve interactions with dog-like robots, we evaluated the importance of “dog-like” framing and physical appearance on interaction, hypothesizing multiple interactive benefits of each. We assessed whether framing Aibo as a puppy (i.e., in need of development) versus simply a robot would result in more positive responses and interactions. We also predicted that adding fur to Aibo would make it appear more dog-like, likable, and interactive. Twenty-nine participants engaged with Aibo in a 2 × 2 (framing × appearance) design by issuing commands to the robot. Aibo and participant behaviors were monitored per second, and evaluated via an analysis of commands issued, an analysis of command blocks (i.e., chains of commands), and using a T-pattern analysis of participant behavior. Participants were more likely to issue the “Come Here” command than other types of commands. When framed as a puppy, participants used Aibo’s dog name more often, praised it more, and exhibited more unique, interactive, and complex behavior with Aibo. Participants exhibited the most smiling and laughing behaviors with Aibo framed as a puppy without fur. Across conditions, after interacting with Aibo, participants felt Aibo was more trustworthy, intelligent, warm, and connected than at their initial meeting. This study shows the benefits of introducing a socially robotic agent with a particular frame and importance on realism (i.e., introducing the robot dog as a puppy) for more interactive engagement.

In this paper, we investigate the mechanics of dance for humans that can be applied to robots, in an attempt to make dancing robots learn the fundamentals of dance, and improve their dancing. We provide a conceptual definition of ‘dance’ and ‘movement’ to make robot dancers form their own movements to music. We used a virtual robot dog to experiment on our conceptual definitions, and human subjects to give their feedback on the robot’s dancing. Experimental results show that the robot learns (using reinforcement learning) our conceptual definition of ‘dance’ and that a dance that has structure and fundamental joint movements, improves the dancing.

Abstract:
The Robo-dog was designed and implemented by a Shiqi Peng, a PhD student in 2006. The dog incorporated many control systems such as Reinforced Learning, Subsumption Architecture and a Central Pattern Producer. The dog since 2013 has been in an inactive state, the dog now is used to educate students on various concepts such as debugging, electronics and programming. A variety of issues stem from the dog and are not limited to the lack of documentation, missing equipment and components, broken and faulty hardware components and a limited functioning program. The objectives of the project are: restore various capabilities of the dog, moving the dog from Point A to Point B, implementing a control system utilising pre-existing sensors on the dog. To begin attempting to manoeuvre the dog, various components such as tilt-sensors, foot-sensors and microcontroller communication needed to be addressed as the components were not in a working state. Documentation has been updated or created to reflect the changes that have been made to the components of the dog. Moving the dog from Point A to Point B was achieved through various walking techniques, by adapting and adjusting the limb movements in the walk gait for a dog and then applying the concepts to the robo-dog. The implementation of the limb movement and the walk gait focused on maximising forward movement per cycle incorporating a sequential approach where each movement were dependant on one other. A control system was implemented in the form of Subsumption Architecture; the behaviours implemented are to determine the balance of the dog, walk sequence of the dog and to determine whether the dog is walking on a ramp. The implementation goal is to provide an easy-to-expand control system so that future students can add additional behaviours to the system.

Abstract:
Dogs engage in various interactions with artificial agents (UMOs) but it is not clear whether they recognize UMOs as social agents. Jealous behaviour emerges when an important relationship is threatened by another individual, but only when the intruder is a social agent. We investigated whether UMOs elicit jealous behaviour in dogs. We tested three groups of 15 dogs, each group observed different behaviour of the UMO: mechanistic movement, non-social or social behaviour. Then, the owner interacted with another dog, the UMO and a magazine while ignoring the subject. Dogs displayed more rival-oriented behaviour and attempt to interrupt the owner-rival interaction in case of the other dog and UMO compared to the magazine (the latter mainly occurred in the Social UMO group). However, they showed less owner- and interaction-oriented behaviour in case of the UMO. Thus, although some elements of jealous behaviour emerged toward the UMO, the results are not conclusive; Resumo: Comportamento e Etologia Canina Os cães interagem com agentes artificiais (UMOs), mas não sabemos se os reconhecem como agentes sociais. O comportamento de ciúme surge quando uma relação importante é ameaçada por outro indivíduo, mas apenas quando o rival é social. Investigámos se os UMOs geram comportamento de ciúme nos cães. Testámos três grupos de 15 cães, cada grupo observou diferentes comportamentos do UMO: comportamento mecânico, não-social ou social. Posteriormente, o dono interagiu com o outro cão, o UMO e uma revista, enquanto ignorava a cobaia. Os cães demonstraram mais comportamento orientado ao rival e tentaram interromper a interação dono-rival mais vezes no caso do outro cão e do UMO comparado com a revista (principalmente no grupo do UMO Social). Porém, os cães mostraram menos comportamento dirigido ao dono e à interação no caso do UMO. Portanto, apesar de alguns elementos de comportamento de ciúme surgirem com o UMO, os resultados não são conclusivos.

Abstract:
As robots continue to enter people's spaces and environments, it will be increasingly important to have effective interfaces for interaction and communication. One such aspect of this communication is people's awareness of the robot's actions and state. We believe that using high-level state representations, as a peripheral awareness channel, will help people to be aware of the robotic states in an easy to understand way. For example, when a robot is boxed in a small area, it can suggest a negative robot state (e.g., not willing to work in a small area as it cannot clean the entire room) by appearing unhappy to people. To investigate this, we built a robotic dog tail prototype and conducted a study to investigate how different tail motions (based on several motion parameters, e.g., speed) influence people’s perceptions of the robot. The results from this study formed design guidelines that Human-Robot Interaction (HRI) designers can leverage to convey robotic states. Further, we evaluated our overall approach and tested these guidelines by conducting a design workshop with interaction designers where we asked them to use the guidelines to design tail behaviors for various robotic states (e.g., looking for dirt) for robots working in different environments (e.g., domestic service). Results from this workshop helped in improving the confusing parts in our guidelines and making them easy to use by the designers. In conclusion, this thesis presents a set of solidified design guidelines that can be leveraged by HRI designers to convey the states of robots in a way that people can readily understand when and how to interact with them.

Abstract:
This thesis shows the development of a quadruped platform inspired by existing quadrupled robot designs. A robot by the name of Mjukost was designed, built, and tested. Mjukost uses 12 Dynamixel AX-12a smart servos and can extend its legs up to 19 cm with an operating height of 16 cm. All the custom parts in Mjukost are ether 3d printable or easy to manufacture, and the total estimated cost of Mjukost is around 900$. Mjukost has a simple control system that can position its body freely in 6 DOF using an inverse kinematic model and walk on flat ground using an open-loop walking algorithm. The performance experiments show that its slow control loopcauses difficulties for the robot to follow precise trajectories, but its still consistent in its motions.

Abstract:
An algorithm for generating communicative, human-like motion for social humanoid robots was developed. Anticipation, exaggeration, and secondary motion were demonstrated as examples of communication. Spatiotemporal correspondence was presented as a metric for human-like motion, and the metric was used to both synthesize and evaluate motion. An algorithm for generating an infinite number of variants from a single exemplar was established to avoid repetitive motion. The algorithm was made task-aware by including the functionality of satisfying constraints. User studies were performed with the algorithm using human participants. Results showed that communicative, human-like motion can be harnessed to direct partner attention and communicate state information. Furthermore, communicative, human-like motion for social robots produced by the algorithm allows humans partners to feel more engaged in the interaction, recognize motion earlier, label intent sooner, and remember interaction details more accurately.

Abstract:
Användandet av servicerobotar i olika sammanhang, har under de senare åren stadigt ökat och är idag ett allt vanligare inslag på företag och organisationers webbsidor. Servicerobotar har stor potential att skapa fördelar i kontakten med användare, eftersom de kan tillhandahålla outtröttlig och snabb service på ett kostnadseffektivt sätt. Denna teknik skapar även möjligheten att i viss utsträckning automatisera den viktiga kundkontakten, vilken kan leda till effektivisering av olika affärsprocesser och kostnadsminskningar utan att inskränka på upplevd kvalitet. Den tidigare forskning som utförts inom området för servicerobotar har främst varit inriktad mot att undersöka vilka aspekter ur ett användarperspektiv av en servicerobot som är essentiella för att uppnå god användbarhet och användaracceptans. Man har i tidigare forskning även identifierat att det ur ett organisationsperspektiv saknas ett etablerat och standardiserat tillvägagångssätt för hur man bör hantera design och tillämpning av interaktiva servicerobotar. Denna studie har avsett att undersöka hur design och tillämpning av en servicerobot bör hanteras ur en organisatorisk synvinkel, vilket uppnåtts genom en fallstudie i det Växjö baserade företaget Visma Spcs och deras servicerobot Vera. I fallstudien har en kvalitativ undersökningsmetod tillämpats genom semistrukturerade intervjuer med personer involverade i Vera projektet. Resultatet av fallstudien visade att det finns viktiga aspekter i arbetet med servicerobotar som bör beaktas ur en organisatorisk synvinkel, för att kunna skapa en användbar och accepterad servicerobot. Slutsatsen av studien visade på tre principer: Förstå användaren, Förstå Kontexten, samt Skapande, kontroll och underhåll, som är viktiga delar att beakta vid design och tillämpning av interaktiva servicerobotar ur en organisatorisk synvinkel. Att förstå användaren kommer vara viktigt för att skapa en användarupplevelse som uppfyller användarnas behov. Förstå kontexten kommer vara kritiskt vid val av robottyp, samt vilken typ av mjukvarulösning som ska användas och skapande, kontroll och underhåll kommer vara viktigt för att se till att serviceroboten upprätthåller hög system-, informations- och servicekvalitet.
The use of service robots in various contexts has steadily increased in recent years and has become an increasingly common feature of different companies and organizations' websites. Service robots have been proven to have a great potential to provide important benefits in contact with users, where service robots can provide tireless and fast service to users in a cost-effective manner. This technology enables companies and organizations to a certain extent automate the very important customer contact, which can lead to more efficient business processes and cost minimization without restricting perceived quality. The previous research carried out in the field of service robots has focused primarily on investigating which aspects of a service robot that are essential for achieving good usability and user acceptance from a user perspective. Previous research has also identified that there is no established and standardized approach for how to handle the design and application of interactive service robots from an organizational perspective. This study has intended to investigate how the design and application of a service robot should be managed from an organizational perspective, which was achieved through a case study in the Växjö based company Visma Spcs and their service robot Vera. In the case study, a qualitative survey method has been applied through semi-structured interviews with people involved in the Vera project. The result of the case study showed that there are important aspects in the work with service robots that should be considered from an organizational perspective, in order to be able to create a useful and accepted service robot. The conclusion of the study showed three principles: Understand the user, Understand the context, and Creation, control and maintenance, which are important parts to consider when designing and applying interactive service robots from an organizational perspective. Understanding the user will be important for creating a user experience that meets the users' needs. Understanding the context will be critical when choosing a robot type, and what type of software solution is to be used. Creation, control and maintenance will be important to ensure that the service robot maintains high system, information and service quality.

Abstract:
Robotic accuracy has long been limited by the compliance of the manipulator. Whether links under bending loads or backlash in gear trains and stretching of belts, the resulting compliance causes a loss of accuracy at the end-effector. Previous research has investigated accuracy of ideally stiff manipulators from many different points of view; however, an overall compliant modeling technique has not been formulated in the literature. This thesis presents a general technique to develop a compliant model for a general six-degree manipulator with the intent of reducing end-effector error for precision manufacturing. Experimental and theoretical work was performed on an American Robot Merlin six-degree of freedom robot. The solution technique assumes each link of the manipulator is subject to stiffnesses in three directions, that is, in the direction of motion, laterally and torsionally. Each of the three stiffnesses is assumed constant, but unknown. Three experimental regimes were established, each covering a successively larger region of the workspace, and 243 data samples were taken within each regime. Samples were taken at twenty-seven data points under nine known loads for each of the first two regimes and at nine locations under twenty-seven loads in the third regime. An OPTOTRAK 3020 non-contact distance-measuring system was used to gather data from twelve sensors for each trial. The results were transformed into three displacements and three rotations of the end-effector. A regression algorithm solved for the unknown stiffnesses of the compliant model based on the measured experimental deflection. Results show that for loads ranging between zero and 445 N, the deflection of the end-effector is predicted within fifteen percent of experimental results for most data points. Furthermore, a load set between zero and 111 N (the stated lift capacity of the manipulator) predicts end point position with an error of less than one-half a millimeter for all tested points. This research provides a technique to quantify the compliance of a general manipulator and develops a model capable of being implemented with open-loop position control with known compliance.

Abstract:
The research presented in this thesis discusses the design of a new configuration of a hybrid parallel robot with nine degrees of freedom. Parallel robots have been studied due to their high stiffness and accuracy rather than serial robots. However, parallel mechanisms have not been widely used in industry due to the lack of workspace. A major advantage of the proposed hybrid parallel robot is to increase the work volume while the stiffness of the system remains suitable for a range of industrial applications. Novel dynamic formulations have been developed by using Newton Euler and inverse kinematics in order to identify the best configurations based on stiffness and velocity of system in any particular position. The developed program determines the velocity and stiffness of the system for each configuration. A physical robot prototype built to test the developed theoretical model. The control strategies of the robot were developed and tested based on both point to point control and continuous path applications. The path between two points was selected based on the stiffness of the system in a particular position and orientation. A robotic ankle rehabilitation application was successfully used to verify the design of the proposed hybrid parallel robot.

Abstract:
A Grant Agreement between the Government of Australia and the World Organisation for Animal Health (OIE), the Stop Transboundary Animal Diseases and Zoonoses (STANDZ), initiative includes a rabies component with an overarching intended outcome of reducing dog rabies incidence in targeted areas. This initiative envisaged regional rabies activities in South-East Asia as well as specifically designed pilot projects in the Philippines, Myanmar and Cambodia. While remaining anchored to the envisioned outcome, its implementation from 2013 to 2016 also leveraged on the resources made available through the initiative to strategically generate tools, materials and examples that can potentially bridge long-standing gaps on dog rabies elimination in the region. This included developing approaches on rabies communication strategy, risk-based approach for the prioritization of mass dog vaccination, rabies case investigation, post-vaccination monitoring, building capacity through pilot vaccination projects, One Health operationalization at the grass-root level, and reinforcing high-level political support through regional and national rabies strategy development. These are briefly described in this paper and are also further detailed in a series of publications which individually document these approaches for future utility of the countries in the region, or wherever these may be deemed fitting. The STANDZ rabies initiative leaves behind a legacy of materials and mechanisms that can potentially contribute in strategically addressing rabies in the region and in achieving the global vision of eliminating dog-mediated human rabies by 2030.

Abstract:
Within the framework of an economic laboratory experiment, we investigate how Algorithm Aversion impedes the establishment of Robo Advisors. The participants have to cope with diversification tasks. They can do this themselves or they can entrust a Robo Advisor with this task. The Robo Advisor evaluates all relevant data and always makes the decision that leads to the highest expected value of compensation for the participant. Although the high performance of the Robo Advisor is obvious, the participants only trust the Robo Advisor in around 40% of all decisions. This reduces their success and their compensation. Many participants are guided by the 1/n heuristic, which contributes to their suboptimal decisions. Insofar as the participants have to decide for others, they noticeably put more effort into it and are also more successful than when they decide for themselves. However, this does not affect the acceptance of the Robo Advisor. Even in the case of proxy decisions, the Robo Advisor is only used in around 40% of cases. The propensity of economic agents towards algorithm aversion stands in the way of a broad establishment of Robo Advisors.

Full text
Abstract:
The overall goal of this project was to elucidate the role of dissolved organic matter (DOM) in soil retention, bioavailability and plant uptake of silver and cerium oxide NPs. The environmental risks of manufactured nanoparticles (NPs) are attracting increasing attention from both industrial and scientific communities. These NPs have shown to be taken-up, translocated and bio- accumulated in plant edible parts. However, very little is known about the behavior of NPs in soil-plant system as affected by dissolved organic matter (DOM). Thus DOM effect on NPs behavior is critical to assessing the environmental fate and risks related to NP exposure. Carbon-based nanomaterials embedded with metal NPs demonstrate a great potential to serve as catalyst and disinfectors. Hence, synthesis of novel carbon-based nanocomposites and testing them in the environmentally relevant conditions (particularly in the DOM presence) is important for their implementation in water purification. Sorption of DOM on Ag-Ag₂S NPs, CeO₂ NPs and synthesized Ag-Fe₃O₄-carbon nanotubebifunctional composite has been studied. High DOM concentration (50mg/L) decreased the adsorptive and catalytic efficiencies of all synthesized NPs. Recyclable Ag-Fe₃O₄-carbon nanotube composite exhibited excellent catalytic and anti-bacterial action, providing complete reduction of common pollutants and inactivating gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria at environmentally relevant DOM concentrations (5-10 mg/L). Our composite material may be suitable for water purification ranging from natural to the industrial waste effluents. We also examined the role of maize (Zeamays L.)-derived root exudates (a form of DOM) and their components on the aggregation and dissolution of CuONPs in the rhizosphere. Root exudates (RE) significantly inhibited the aggregation of CuONPs regardless of ionic strength and electrolyte type. With RE, the critical coagulation concentration of CuONPs in NaCl shifted from 30 to 125 mM and the value in CaCl₂ shifted from 4 to 20 mM. This inhibition was correlated with molecular weight (MW) of RE fractions. Higher MW fraction (> 10 kDa) reduced the aggregation most. RE also significantly promoted the dissolution of CuONPs and lower MW fraction (< 3 kDa) RE mainly contributed to this process. Also, Cu accumulation in plant root tissues was significantly enhanced by RE. This study provides useful insights into the interactions between RE and CuONPs, which is of significance for the safe use of CuONPs-based antimicrobial products in agricultural production. Wheat root exudates (RE) had high reducing ability to convert Ag+ to nAg under light exposure. Photo-induced reduction of Ag+ to nAg in pristine RE was mainly attributed to the 0-3 kDa fraction. Quantification of the silver species change over time suggested that Cl⁻ played an important role in photoconversion of Ag+ to nAg through the formation and redox cycling of photoreactiveAgCl. Potential electron donors for the photoreduction of Ag+ were identified to be reducing sugars and organic acids of low MW. Meanwhile, the stabilization of the formed particles was controlled by both low (0-3 kDa) and high (>3 kDa) MW molecules. This work provides new information for the formation mechanism of metal nanoparticles mediated by RE, which may further our understanding of the biogeochemical cycling and toxicity of heavy metal ions in agricultural and environmental systems. Copper sulfide nanoparticles (CuSNPs) at 1:1 and 1:4 ratios of Cu and S were synthesized, and their respective antifungal efficacy was evaluated against the pathogenic activity of Gibberellafujikuroi(Bakanae disease) in rice (Oryza sativa). In a 2-d in vitro study, CuS decreased G. fujikuroiColony- Forming Units (CFU) compared to controls. In a greenhouse study, treating with CuSNPs at 50 mg/L at the seed stage significantly decreased disease incidence on rice while the commercial Cu-based pesticide Kocide 3000 had no impact on disease. Foliar-applied CuONPs and CuS (1:1) NPs decreased disease incidence by 30.0 and 32.5%, respectively, which outperformed CuS (1:4) NPs (15%) and Kocide 3000 (12.5%). CuS (1:4) NPs also modulated the shoot salicylic acid (SA) and Jasmonic acid (JA) production to enhance the plant defense mechanisms against G. fujikuroiinfection. These results are useful for improving the delivery efficiency of agrichemicals via nano-enabled strategies while minimizing their environmental impact, and advance our understanding of the defense mechanisms triggered by the NPs presence in plants.

Full text
Abstract:
Research into the fate of pharmaceutical compounds (PCs) in the environment has focused on aspects of removal efficiency during sewage treatment, degradation in surface water and accumulation in soils and sediments. However, very little information is available on the binding interactions of pharmaceuticals with dissolved organic matter (DOM) originating from wastewater treatment. Such interactions can significantly affect the transport potential of PCs in soils by altering compound affinity for soil particle surfaces. Our primary hypothesis is that the transport potential of PCs in soils is strongly impacted by the type and strength of interaction with DOM and the stability of resulting DOM-PC complexes. The overarching goal of the proposed work is to develop a better understanding of the risk associated with introduction of PCs into the environment with treated wastewater. This goal has been achieved by elucidating the mechanisms of the interaction of selected pharmaceuticals (that have shown to be widespread wastewater contaminants) with DOM constituents; by determining the stability and fate of DOM-PC complexes introduced to soils and soil constituents; and by evaluating the potential uptake of these compounds by plants. Based on the results obtained in this study (column and batch sorption-desorption experiments), we suggest that PCs can be classified as slow-mobile compounds in SOM-rich soil layers. When these compounds pass this layer and/or are introduced into SOM-poor soils, their mobility increases significantly. Our data suggest that in semiarid soils (consisting of low SOM), PCs can potentially be transported to the groundwater in fields irrigated with reclaimed wastewater. Moreover, the higher mobility of the acid PCs (i.e., naproxen and diclofenac) in freshwater column systems suggests that their residues in soils irrigated with reclaimed wastewater can leach from the root zone and be transported to the groundwater after rain events. Our data obtained from the binding experiments of PCs with DOM demonstrate that the hydrophobic DOM fractions were more efficient at sorbing PCs than the more polar hydrophilic fractions at a pH near the pKa of the analytes. At the pH of natural semiarid water and soil systems, including that of reclaimed wastewater and biosolids, the role of the hydrophobic fractions as sorption domains is less important than the contribution of the hydrophilic fractions. We also hypothesize that the DOM fractions interact with each other at the molecular level and do not act as independent sorption domains. In summary, our data collected in the BARD project demonstrate that the sorption abilities of the DOM fractions can also significantly affect the mobility of pharmaceutical compounds in soils influenced by intensive irrigation with treated wastewater or amended with biosolids.

Abstract:
Recent years have seen energy protests erupt in many countries around the world. Globally, countries are wrestling with the need to achieve a just transition away from fossil fuels while at the same time ensuring access to affordable energy. Protests often have a common root cause: the undemocratic nature of energy policymaking. This Policy Briefing describes findings from research conducted in Mozambique, Nigeria, and Pakistan, as well as from a global, cross-country study, and the insights from an International Roundtable. It asks how and under which conditions do struggles over energy in fragile and conflict-affected settings empower citizens to hold public authorities to account?
