Abstract:
Understanding the patterns and underlying mechanisms that come into play when employees exchange their knowledge is crucial for their work performance and professional development. Although much is known about the relationship between certain global network properties of knowledge-flow networks and work performance, less is known about the emergence of specific global network structures of knowledge flow. The paper therefore aims to identify a global network structure in blockmodel terms within an empirical knowledge-flow network and discuss whether the selected local network mechanisms are able to drive the network towards the chosen global network structure. Existing studies of knowledge-flow networks are relied on to determine the local network mechanisms. Agent-based modelling shows the selected local network mechanisms are able to drive the network towards the assumed hierarchical global structure.

Abstract:
Strategic coupling is a hot field in the research of global production networks. The existing literature mostly consists of studies from the perspective of countries, regions, and enterprises, and relatively lacks the content for describing global–local strategic coupling networks and their evolution path with industries as carriers. The GBA is a bridgehead for China to participate in the global production network. Based on the systematic construction of the strategic coupling network analysis framework of global–local knowledge spillovers, this paper, taking the biopharmaceutical industry of GBA as an example, depicts the evolution process of its coupling network nodes, structures, and networks from 1990 to 2019 by using system analysis, social network analysis, and other methods, and analyzes node centrality, network structure, coupling paths, and their influencing factors. We found that the strategic coupling of global–local knowledge spillover is typically a networked structure, with the network organization presenting a multi-element sub-system hierarchical state. The overall network structure, with knowledge spillover as the carrier, shows obvious phased differences, having gone through three path stages from exploratory to expanding to stable. The path selection shows a spatial progression and a temporal sequence. The main factors affecting the path selection of the coupling network are the bargaining power of regional knowledge, behavioral subjects’ will, and multi-dimensional proximity.

Abstract:
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to scrutinise how the sustainable supply chain management (SSCM) literature has discussed knowledge dynamics across the extended supply network, particularly in the contemporary context of fragmented, globally dispersed supply networks. Design/methodology/approach A systematic approach to reviewing the literature is applied, covering 20 years, starting with 267 references, and narrowing down to 88 articles specifically addressing knowledge diffusion processes across the extended supply network. Findings This study shows that vertical ties limited to direct suppliers or third-party monitoring of global suppliers are both insufficient. Lack of co-opetition is an impediment to knowledge diffusion. And the debate of whether or not global dispersion is an impediment to knowledge diffusion seems inconclusive. More importantly, there is a lack of network-level studies mapping the diversity of actors in supply networks. Research limitations/implications First, future SSCM research should shift from an operational focus to strategic knowledge diffusion. Second, the scope of SSCM should expand from linear buyer–supplier relationships to multi-tier and multilateral studies. Special focus should be placed on the literature on social network to support processes that look at the drivers of effective large-scale, global diffusion of sustainability. Originality/value This review contends that it is paramount to set a new research direction captured in a new definition of “sustainable supply network management”. Future research should overcome the barriers of data collection at the network level in order to contribute to the field’s current challenges, which clearly lies in globally dispersed and complex supply network, not dyads or linear chains.

Abstract:
Abstract Estuaries are profoundly rich, diverse, and complex ecosystems, and crucial to the overall health of Earth's oceans. Estuarine ecological complexity is matched by tremendous human cultural diversity. In the United States, millions of people live in estuarine environments from the Gulf of Mexico to the Arctic—many of whom directly depend on the productivity of marine resources in both commercial and subsistence fishing activities. Yet, estuaries are also among Earth's most threatened landscapes against the backdrop of global warming, sea-level rise, agricultural and industrial pollution, habitat loss, overfishing, and so on. This represents a looming disaster for our oceans at a global scale. The Estuarine Ecological Knowledge Network (EEKN) is based on the idea that fishing communities living within major estuaries are the key to ensuring the health of global oceans. Coastal fishing communities have vast accumulations of ecological knowledge about the functioning of estuarine ecosystems and interact with those ecosystems in intimate ways on a daily basis. This network is designed to connect coastal communities in monitoring the health of estuarine ecosystems and in using traditional ecological knowledge to develop strategies for enhancing ecosystem health and resilience.

The convergence of Digital Economy, Globalization, and Knowledge-based Economy, creates the potential for Global Knowledge Networks and e-Knowledge Commerce. "The e-knowledge markets will grow to be a $1 trillion global micro-economy by 2010," estimated by Kaieteur Institute For Knowledge Management in 2000. The next wave of growth is likely to be associated with E-Knowledge Commerce, far exceeding the ECommerce. However, up to date, significant disconnections exist among Digital Economy, Knowledge-based Economy, and Globalization. e-Knowledge Commerce is too new to have business models to exist in either the business world or literatures. This thesis tries to fill this significant gap, by focusing on a new type of global institutional development, known as Global Knowledge Network, by defining its characteristic features and formulating the relevant 'best business models.' More specifically, this thesis (a) determines and formulates business models relevant for different types of e-Knowledge Commerce, and (b) explores how to develop the functionality of a Global Knowledge Network such as Global System for Sustainable Development (GSSD) in the context of e-Knowledge Commerce. Furthermore, this thesis examines the policy and legal issues in e-Knowledge Commerce & Global Knowledge Network, such as intellectual property right, customer privacy, digital trusted system, security such as firewalls, encryption, watermark, etc. Finally, draws conclusions about e-Knowledge Commerce & Global Knowledge Network and provides some recommendations for further research work.

Abstract:
Negli ultimi decenni diversi fattori hanno forzato le imprese a vagliare la possibilità di aprire i confini del proprio processo innovativo al fine di sopravvivere alla competizione globale. Concetti come time lag, incertezza, sunk cost e gestione della conoscenza sono così diventati pietre miliari in uno scenario economico moderno in cui il numero di tecnologie per prodotto aumenta in una dinamica di convergenza che include sempre più soluzioni in un unico dispositivo ibrido. Al tempo stesso l’aumento nei costi di ricerca e sviluppo e la natura sempre più interdisciplinare di codesti investimenti porta le imprese a ricercare un numero sempre maggiore di partner e potenziali fonti di knowledge. Per effetto di tali premesse, diverse imprese hanno adottato una strategia di networking all’interno del quale ciascun partner contribuisce attivamente al processo innovativo nella misura più coerente con le proprie competenze specifiche. Un approccio di innovazione chiuso invece, comporta solo due tipi di risultato per una nuova tecnologia: il successo o il fallimento. Esito di tale dicotomia, in un’arena competitiva caratterizzata dallo scontro tra grandi network globali, può quindi portare alla perdita di anni di investimenti in R&S. Il paradigma di Open innovation permette di mitigare tale rischio, grazie alla forte diversificazione ottenibile per fonti di knowledge ma anche la possibilità di trarre profitto dalla vendita delle proprie innovazioni sul mercato intermedio della tecnologia. Sebbene l’apertura del processo di innovazione ne migliori la sostenibilità, essa comporta anche un forte cambiamento sul piano organizzativo. La presente tesi si pone l’obiettivo di indagare circa l’adozione del paradigma Open innovation da parte di network globali che competono in settori ad elevata pressione competitiva, con particolare interesse per l’elettronica. Da un punto di vista legato ai processi, l’apertura dell’impresa si esplicita attraverso due flussi di knowledge noti come outside-in e inside-out processes. Sulla base di quanto detto dalla letteratura quindi si può affermare che l’Open innovation è una tipologia di business model che consente di mitigare notevolmente i rischi e le limitazioni del processo innovativo. L’apertura incrementa la base di knowledge interna grazie al supporto fornito dalle più diverse fonti, tra cui la letteratura evidenzia le istituzioni pubbliche, le comunità di utenti, le piccole e medie imprese, l’ecosistema delle start-up, le università e i centri di ricerca e infine, grandi imprese e concorrenti. Tali fonti rappresentano la spina dorsale di un network che si pone l’obiettivo di innovare in un mercato ad elevata competitività e imitazione. Infine la tesi si focalizza sullo studio di un caso aziendale: Samsung Electronics. Tale impresa è infatti un grande chaebol sud coreano che negli ultimi decenni ha investito pesantemente al fine di raggiungere i vertici di diversi mercati dell’elettronica. Infatti Samsung ha adottato ormai da tempo un business model aperto nella gestione del proprio network, modificando la struttura interna in ragione dell’integrazione di diverse fonti di conoscenza esterne. Essa agisce conformemente a molti assunti teorici del paradigma di Chesbrough e nomina parte della propria accountability con l’etichetta Open innovation, con l’impiego di diverse strutture create appositamente a tale scopo. Inoltre tale chaebol fornisce anche prova empirica di come il potenziamento delle risorse di R&S interne comporti un miglioramento delle capacità di assorbimento delle conoscenze dall’esterno e di come una gestione delle tecnologie utilizzate come opzioni possa funzionare. Queste ultime considerazioni dimostrano come al paradigma di Open innovation siano legati ulteriori filoni di letteratura quali l’absorptive capacity e la real option theory.
In the last decades many factors have pushed companies to increase their interest in the openness of their innovation process as a way to win the competition race (Christensen et al., 2005). Time lag, uncertainty, sunk costs and knowledge management are key words in a modern economic scenario where the number of technologies per product increases (Howells et al., 2003) and convergence encloses more and more solutions in a unique hybrid device. Augment in the R&D costs and their inter-disciplinary disposition (Hacklin et al., 2004) involve more partnerships and knowledge sources because firms cannot compete alone in the market (Howells et al., 2003). As a result many firms adopted a network strategy in which each partner actively contributes to the innovation process with different forms of knowledge. In fact, Following a closed innovation approach involve only two possible results for a new technology, the success or a failure. In a modern economy based on time-based competition among large and global networks, the failure of a R&D project may be synonymous of the loss of years of investments and efforts. Open Innovation allows to mitigate this effect, because a strong diversification in term of knowledge sources but also in the possibility to profit from the market for technology. However openness augments the innovation sustainability but involves high degree of organizational change. This thesis discusses the adoption of Open Innovation by global networks who play in high degree of competition, and in particular in the modern electronics scenario. From a process perspective openness is expressed by outside-in and inside-out flows of knowledge. In particular it splits the openness in four main type of processes such as: sourcing, acquiring, selling and revealing. As a result the thesis argues that Open Innovation is a business model who permit a strong mitigation effect on many risks tied to the innovation process. Openness increases the internal knowledge with the aid from several sources such as: public institutions, users, small and medium enterprises and the start-up ecosystem, universities and research centers, other large firms and competitors. These sources are the backbone of a network who manage the Open Innovation business model. Finally the thesis is focused on a case study about Samsung Electronics. This company is an innovative south Korean chaebol that in the last decades widely invested in reaching the top positions in different electronics market. As a result, Samsung adopted some years ago an open business model in its network management, modifying the internal R&D structure in function of universities, research centers, customers, open source users, competitors and start-ups. It is widely coherent with the theoretical background of Open Innovation in electronics. Samsung named part of its accountability with the label of Open Innovation and has a large array of ad hoc organizational structures. Since the beginning of the century, few years later that Chesbrough coined the term, Samsung started to invest in projects aimed to support the outside-in processes about several scientific domains. Moreover the Korean chaebol confirmed other theoretical backgrounds tied to real option theory and absorptive capacity showing a strong commitment in a form of knowledge management doesn’t limited by a closed approach.

Abstract:
Cette thèse doctorale étudie l’impact des effets de réseau sur le commerce et la finance internationale. Le premier chapitre évalue le rôle que joue la centralité des partenaires commerciaux dans la diffusion des connaissances et conclut que l’importation de biens provenant de partenaires situés au cœur du réseau est génératrice de croissance économique. Le deuxième chapitre étudie le rôle des communautés de commerce dans la vitesse d’adoption de nouvelles technologies et établit que la diffusion des idées est encouragée au sein des pays appartenant à la même communauté. Le troisième chapitre souligne le rôle que jouent les partenaires financiers dans le choix d’investir dans une nouvelle destination et montre que les pays sont plus susceptibles d’investir dans un nouveau pays si un de leurs partenaires actuels y a déjà investi. Le quatrième chapitre évalue l’impact de l’importation des produits à risque et estime qu’une augmentation d’un pourcent des importations de produits fragiles provenant d’un pays touché par une catastrophe naturelle est associée à une réduction de 0,7 pourcent des exportations nationales
This doctoral dissertation investigates the impact of networks effects on international trade and finance. The first chapter estimates the role a trade partners’ centrality plays in the diffusion of knowledge and finds that importing from countries at the core of the network leads to a significant increase in economic growth. The second chapter investigates the role of clusters in the speed of technology adoption and concludes that the diffusion of ideas is fostered among countries belonging to the same cluster. The third chapter emphasizes the role of current partners in choosing a destination for new investments and finds that countries are more likely to invest in a new destination if one of their existing partners have already made some investments in the location. The fourth chapter evaluates the impact of importing risky products on the economy and finds that the elasticity of a country’s exports with respect to its import share of fragile products from a partner impacted by a natural disaster is -0.7 percent

Abstract:
Over the last two decades the role of knowledge in organizations has attracted considerable attention from organizational practice and academia (Beamish & Armistead, 2001; Blackler, Reed, & Whitaker, 1993; Grant, 1996; Jasimuddin, 2006; Nonaka, 1994). A broad research community has emerged around with about 40 peer-reviewed journals (Serenko & Bontis, 2013a, 2013b; Serenko, Bontis, Booker, Sadeddin, & Hardie, 2010) which has attracted scholars from fields such as management, information management and library sciences, psychology and organizational studies, sociology and computer sciences as well as engineering and philosophy (Baskerville & Dulipovici, 2006; Gu, 2004; Lee & Chen, 2012; Martin, 2008; Venzin, Von Krogh, & Roos, 1998; Wallace, Van Fleet, & Downs, 2011). The assessment of the KM field ranges from suggestions that KM is in a state of "pre-science" with different paradigms and disagreement about fundamentals in the field (Hazlett, McAdam, & Gallagher, 2005) while others see a ‘healthy arena with a strong foundation in multiple theories and clear direction for future work (Baskerville & Dulipovici, 2006).

Abstract:
Beyond taking specific action in challenging global poverty and inequality, Nongovernmental Organisation (NGO) campaigning also aims to increase public awareness and understanding about the campaign issues. However, surveys on public concern about global poverty in the United Kingdom (UK) suggest falling levels of public understanding in spite of the campaigns undertaken by NGOs, and the rise in public donations. This thesis investigates how NGOs identify, frame and communicate the information they disseminate to their campaigners as knowledge about global poverty and inequality. It is concerned with how NGO campaigning can move from providing basic awareness, to enhancing the UK’s public understanding about the causes of global poverty. The practices of two categories of NGOs were investigated in examining the modes of communication they adopt for campaigning, and opportunities for their campaigners to be involved in framing and disseminating knowledge on the campaign issue. It analysed NGO representations of global poverty as part of framing knowledge that shape public perception of global poverty, and explored how NGOs can engage with campaigners as end users of knowledge. The thesis draws on recent discussions on the distinctive modes of communication NGOs use in their advocacy, as well as Castells’ concept of Network Society in analysing NGO campaigning in an era where knowledge production is diffused. I adopted organisational knowledge theory, which proposes “knowledge” as pertinent and actionable information. The collective case study approach was used to investigate the practices of two student-led organisations and three International NGOs (INGOs) that engage in campaigning to mobilise public action through raising awareness about global poverty and inequality. I found that the practices and communication strategies of student-led organisations mediated the involvement of their campaigners in framing the campaign issues, and to become multipliers of knowledge about the campaign issue. The INGOs on the other hand targeted policy makers in their communication. I argued that an approach to campaigning that involved campaigners in identifying and framing the campaign issue provide opportunities to multiply their narratives. I proposed that NGOs could mediate the involvement of their campaigners to become catalysts for multiplying public understanding about global poverty.

Abstract:
This paper examines the appropriateness of using educational technologies toward increasing flexibility of learning in a global higher education in South Asia. The integration of information and communication technology (ICT) into education is widely perceived as an essential aspect of teaching and learning in contemporary society and therefore embodied in education policies across many countries, Cambodia and Sri Lanka included. Authors consider the argument that while interactive educational technologies may be appropriate in countries in which self-directed study and student autonomy are emphasised, a similar use of educational technologies may be found appropriate. Yet, in South Asian countries, education has traditionally been more tightly structured and teacher-directed that is why this paper does examine government policies toward the use of educational technologies in higher education in Cambodia and Sri Lanka. Qualitative analyses of both needs and challenges of introducing and implementing ICT in these particular cultural contexts are considered as preconditions for an effective implementation of Higher Education (HE) skill development. Subsequently, a plan is concluded of how to implement EdTec in that HE network to trigger awareness about further steps of the recent measure.

Full text
Abstract:
The Global Aviation Information Network (GAIN) was initiated in response to U.S. Government policies seeking to reduce airline accidents. GAIN was to disseminate airline or aviation safety information in environments where public disclosure impedes the diffusion of information. Government legislation such as the U.S. Freedom of Information Act and other information policies create risks of public disclosure to those reporting information. Therefore, the problem investigated in this research was to identity and evaluate potential solutions to policy issues in public disclosure that prevent the collection and sharing of aviation safety information. Interactions between GAIN, information policy, and knowledge management (KM) and their impact on the diffusion of information were explored. A generalized taxonomy and ontology of KM was interpreted and presented. This taxonomy represents grounded theory developed from examination of examples and cases of KM contained in the literature. This taxonomy may be used to address challenges related to information or knowledge diffusion in various settings. A specialized taxonomy and ontology addressing issues controlling the diffusion of airline safety information was interpreted. This taxonomy presented issues related to diffusion, disclosure, and policy that may be used to help design and implement airline safety information sharing systems. Content analysis and text-mining processes were used to help interpret and develop the taxonomies, ontologies, and recommendations made in this study. This dissertation presents models for using these techniques to develop taxonomy and related ontology from published documentation and recorded interviews. Practitioners may use the methodology of this study to build taxonomy and ontology in other areas of study. Inductive reasoning was used to develop potential solutions to policy issues in public disclosure that prevent the collection and sharing of aviation safety information within GAIN's community and network of practice. GAIN should evolve into a community of practice serving as an information intermediary to various alliances seeking to share aviation safety information. GAIN should focus on assisting alliances with creating environments of trust, collaboration, and the development of policies and fair processes for addressing public disclosure as a barrier to the diffusion of aviation safety information.

Abstract:
The purpose of the research is to assess if the franchising conceptual model is an applicable model for the HWP international market expansion in China.  The assessment will be carried out through the extensive investigations into SSAB/HWP internal and external forces including transfer of knowledge in the MNC, position building in business networks, products positioning and sales situation on the Chinese market to define the risk and opportunity.  As well as the theories of the internationalization, marketing strategy and models will be referred to evaluate the franchising model, which can be adopted in China. The research questions are how can the franchising concept be adopted as an applicable model for the Hardox Wearparts international market expansion in China?  What are the appropriate suggestions for the improvements to the further implementation of the model? By adopting four research methods of qualitative research strategy, a multidimensional purpose of the research has been conducted in order to gather first-hand data, study a specific case and investigate the multidimensional environments for the implementation of the HWP international market expansion model.  The main research methods include 1) questionnaire & survey, 2) qualitative interviewing, 3) observation, and 4) collection and qualitative analysis of texts, document, e- research materials and data. The conclusion of the research is that there are several internal- and external factors, which have affected the HWP´s market expansion in China negatively during the year.  It is a sensible decision to emphasize China as a single largest market for the HWP business development. The market seeking strategy by the infusion of the franchising concept is an appropriate decision for the HWP market expansion in China.  The conceptual franchising model by SSAB is appropriate to both the theoretical model and Chinese regulation on the franchises.  However, to implement this franchising model in China, it requires several significant improvements on those four key components/success factors which are 1) internationalization entry model, 2) transfer of knowledge within the MNC, 3) learning in the foreign market network, and 4) position-building in the business networks.   Together with the improvements on four key components/success factors, the franchising concept will be an applicable model for the HWP international market expansion in China.

Abstract:
The monograph examines the use of modern evidentiary capabilities in the legal process, which are available in connection with human activity in the global information space, including new electronic types of evidence. Such evidence is acquired through the application of special knowledge. The legal bases of the application of special knowledge by the bodies carrying out preliminary investigation, as well as the directions of the application of special knowledge in criminal proceedings are disclosed. Special attention is paid to the peculiarities of proving involvement in crimes (offenses) committed on the Internet.

Abstract:
The performance of supply chains used to be mainly the concern of academics and professionals who studied the potential efficiencies and risks associated with this aspect of globalisation. In 2021, major disruptions in this critical sector of our economies are making headlines and attracting the attention of policy makers around the world. Supply chain bottlenecks create shortages, fuel inflation, and undermine economic recovery. This report provides a transversal and multidisciplinary analysis of the challenges and opportunities regarding data interoperability and data sharing as they relate to the ‘Great Lakes - St. Lawrence Seaway Trade Corridor’ (GLSLTC)’s intermodal transportation and trade data strategy. The size and scope of this trade corridor are only matched by the complexity of its multimodal freight transportation systems and growing urbanization on both sides of the Canada-US border. This complexity is exacerbated by the lack of data interoperability and effective collaborations between the different stakeholders within the various jurisdictions and amongst them. Our analytical work relies on : 1) A review of the relevant documentation on the latest challenges to supply chains (SC), intermodal freight transport and international trade, identifying any databases that are to be used.; 2) A comparative review of selected relevant initiatives to give insights into the best practices in digital supply chains implemented in Canada, the United States, and the European Union.; 3) Interviews and discussions with experts from Transport Canada, Statistics Canada, the Canadian Centre on Transportation Data (CCTD) and Global Affairs Canada, as well as with CIRANO’s research community and four partner institutions to identify databases and data that they use in their research related to transportation and trade relevant data availabilities and methodologies as well as joint research opportunities. Its main findings can be summarized as follow: GLSLTC is characterized by its critical scale, complexity, and strategic impact as North America’s most vital trade corridor in the foreseeable further intensification of continental trade. 4% of Canadian GDP is attributed to the Transportation and Logistics sector (2018): $1 trillion of goods moved every year: Goods and services imports are equivalent to 33% of Canada’s GDP and goods and services exports equivalent to 32%. The transportation sector is a key contributor to the achievement of net-zero emissions commitment by 2050. All sectors of the Canadian economy are affected by global supply chain disruptions. Uncertainty and threats extend well beyond the COVID-19 Pandemic. “De-globalization” and increasing supply chains regionalization pressures are mounting. Innovation and thus economic performance—increasingly hinges on the quantity and quality of data. Data is transforming Canada’s economy/society and is now at the center of global trade “Transport data is becoming less available: Canada needs to make data a priority for a national transportation strategy.” * “How the Government of Canada collects, manages, and governs data—and how it accesses and shares data with other governments, sectors, and Canadians—must change.”

Abstract:
This report provides an overview the Covid Collective research platform, how it was operationalised, and the learning which emerged from the three-year programme. The foundation of the Covid Collective’s theory of change was the network and relationships that were established and developed to harness collaboration and sharing of knowledge across a platform of global research partners. We acknowledged the critical role knowledge sharing, learning and engagement played in creating a culture that could enable and catalyse evidence-based, transformative action in response to Covid-19. The network that was developed in forming the Covid Collective could then facilitate comparative learning and collective action, and generate new insights and knowledge on the factors that support more or less effective responses to Covid-19 and help to build resilience to address future global development challenges.

Full text
Abstract:
Following a review of Vital Signs – indicators of ecosystem health – in the coastal parks of the Northeast Coastal and Barrier Network (NCBN), knowledge of shoreline change was ranked as the top variable for monitoring. Shoreline change is a basic element in the management of any coastal system because it contributes to the understanding of the functioning of the natural resources and to the administration of the cultural resources within the parks. Collection of information on the vectors of change relies on the establishment of a rigorous system of protocols to monitor elements of the coastal geomorphology that are guided by three basic principles: 1) all of the elements in the protocols are to be based on scientific principles; 2) the products of the monitoring must relate to issues of importance to park management; and 3) the application of the protocols must be capable of implementation at the local level within the NCBN. Changes in ocean shoreline position are recognized as interacting with many other elements of the Ocean Beach-Dune Ecosystem and are thus both driving and responding to the variety of natural and cultural factors active at the coast at a variety of temporal and spatial scales. The direction and magnitude of shoreline change can be monitored through the application of a protocol that tracks the spatial position of the neap-tide, high tide swash line under well-defined conditions of temporal sampling. Spring and fall surveys conducted in accordance with standard operating procedures will generate consistent and comparable shoreline position data sets that can be incorporated within a data matrix and subsequently analyzed for temporal and spatial variations. The Ocean Shoreline Position Monitoring Protocol will be applied to six parks in the NCBN: Assateague Island National Seashore, Cape Cod National Seashore, Fire Island National Seashore, Gateway National Recreation Area, George Washington Birthplace National Monument, and Sagamore Hill National Historic Site. Monitoring will be accomplished with a Global Positioning System (GPS )/ Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) unit capable of sub-meter horizontal accuracy that is usually mounted on an off-road vehicle and driven along the swash line. Under the guidance of a set of Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) (Psuty et al., 2022), the monitoring will generate comparable data sets. The protocol will produce shoreline change metrics following the methodology of the Digital Shoreline Analysis System developed by the United States Geological Survey. Annual Data Summaries and Trend Reports will present and analyze the collected data sets. All collected data will undergo rigorous quality-assurance and quality-control procedures and will be archived at the offices of the NCBN. All monitoring products will be made available via the National Park Service’s Integrated Resource Management Applications Portal.

Abstract:
The UK government’s Integrated Review of security, defence, development and foreign policy, published in March 2021 alongside a supporting defence command paper, set a new course for UK national security and highlighted opportunities for an innovative approach to international engagement activity. The Integrated Review focused principally on the state threats posed by China’s increasing power and by competitors – including Russia – armed with nuclear, conventional and hybrid capabilities. It also stressed the continuing risks to global security and resilience due to conflict and instability in weakened and failed states. These threats have the potential to increase poverty and inequality, violent extremism, climate degradation and the forced displacement of people, while presenting authoritarian competitors with opportunities to enhance their geopolitical influence. There are moral, security and economic motives to foster durable peace in conflict-prone and weakened regions through a peacebuilding approach that promotes good governance, addresses the root causes of conflict and prevents violence, while denying opportunities to state competitors. The recent withdrawal from Afghanistan serves to emphasize the complexities and potential pitfalls associated with intervention operations in complex, unstable regions. Success in the future will require the full, sustained and coordinated integration of national, allied and regional levers of power underpinned by a sophisticated understanding of the operating environment. The UK armed forces, with their considerable resources and global network, will contribute to this effort through ‘persistent engagement’. This is a new approach to overseas operations below the threshold of conflict, designed as a pre-emptive complement to warfighting. To achieve this, the UK Ministry of Defence (MOD) must develop a capability that can operate effectively in weak, unstable and complex regions prone to violent conflict and crises, not least in the regions on the eastern and southern flanks of the Euro-Atlantic area. The first step must be the development of a cohort of military personnel with enhanced, tailored levels of knowledge, skills and experience. Engagement roles must be filled by operators with specialist knowledge, skills and experience forged beyond the mainstream discipline of combat and warfighting. Only then will individuals develop a genuinely sophisticated understanding of complex, politically driven and sensitive operating environments and be able to infuse the design and delivery of international activities with practical wisdom and insight. Engagement personnel need to be equipped with: An inherent understanding of the human and political dimensions of conflict, the underlying drivers such as inequality and scarcity, and the exacerbating factors such as climate change and migration; - A grounding in social sciences and conflict modelling in order to understand complex human terrain; - Regional expertise enabled by language skills, cultural intelligence and human networks; - Familiarity with a diverse range of partners, allies and local actors and their approaches; - Expertise in building partner capacity and applying defence capabilities to deliver stability and peace; - A grasp of emerging artificial intelligence technology as a tool to understand human terrain; - Reach and insight developed through ‘knowledge networks’ of external experts in academia, think-tanks and NGOs. Successful change will be dependent on strong and overt advocacy by the MOD’s senior leadership and a revised set of personnel policies and procedures for this cohort’s selection, education, training, career management, incentivization, sustainability and support.

Full text
Abstract:
Addressing environmental challenges while improving social and economic conditions calls for innovative solutions. One of those challenges is the management of organic waste, which if left untreated can lead to water pollution, greenhouse gas emissions, and soil degradation. Brazil produces substantial amounts of organic waste due to its sizeable population and extensive agricultural production. As one of the largest economies in the Global South, the development of innovative solutions to organic waste management in Brazil can potentially pave the way for their adoption in other countries within the Global South. Biogas systems are solutions for organic waste treatment that simultaneously make use of the energy content, reduce gas emissions, and facilitate nutrient recycling. Nevertheless, their multifaceted nature also entails numerous barriers to their widespread implementation. Thus, this report explores the barriers to the development of biogas systems in Brazil and possible strategies to overcome these.Diverse data collection methods were used in the study. A literature review helped identified overall barriers to biogas systems development. This was followed by a field study in Brazil, involving visits to biogas facilities and interviews with stakeholders. The results were combined to understand the impact of the identified barriers across sectors. Finally, a workshop with Brazilian and Swedish stakeholders helped validate the findings and explore possible strategies to overcome barriers to biogas systems development.In the report barriers across eight categories are discussed, namely technological, economic, market, regulatory, cultural, environmental, network, and biomethane barriers. Technological barriers include lack of specialized knowledge, which leads to challenges in operation and maintenance of biogas reactors. Another type of technological barrier is limited access to infrastructure such as gas pipelines and sewage networks, which leads to technical challenges regarding both substrate supply and gas handling. High initial investments and funding accessibility are the most prominent economic barriers. Market barriers include competition with cheaper waste treatment solutions, lack of structured markets for biogas, and limited access to markets. The absence of a national biogas-specific policy, spatial diversity in state-level regulations; together with few and isolated incentives for biogas production are the major regulatory barriers. Cultural barriers include limited knowledge among society and substrate holders about biogas benefits, resistance to waste segregation practices, and sectoral structures hindering collaboration across the biogas value chain. Although environmental aspects of biogas systems are usually drivers to the implementation of biogas facilities, concerns such as gas leaks, odors, and soil contamination risks associated with poor facility design and performance are environmental barriers. Network barriers stem from limited platforms for discussion and interaction among actors, ultimately delaying the establishment of a unified national agenda for biogas development. Due to its characteristics, the production, distribution, and utilization of biomethane face additional challenges across various barrier categories, with major obstacles including uncertainties in grid injection contracts and infrastructure, as well as the expectation that biomethane prices should match those of natural gas.To overcome some of the barriers presented above, the study explored two strategies that could be pursued by actors interested in biogas systems development in Brazil. First, biogas cooperatives are proposed as one solution, allowing resource pooling for technology investment and enhanced biogas production. Second, dedicated biogas producers could play a crucial role,viparticularly in addressing financing challenges and ensuring efficient operation. Dedicated biogas producers could improve the technical efficiency and environmental performance of biogas facilities. Options for biogas utilization include electricity generation and biomethane production, with the latter offering tax benefits and reduced transportation costs when producers can use the biomethane for transportation themselves.The report highlights barriers across various dimensions and addresses strategies to overcome these barriers, such as biogas cooperatives and dedicated biogas producers. Future research could focus on testing these strategies in the Brazilian context through case studies, pilot projects, and collaborative initiatives to refine interventions and accelerate the adoption of biogas technologies.
