Abstract:
In existing multi-population multi-objective cultural algorithms, information are exchanged among sub-populations by individuals. However, migrated individuals can not reflect the evolution information enough, which limits the evolution performance.In order to enhance the migration efficiency, a novel multi-population multi-objective cultural algorithm adopting knowledge migration is proposed. Implicit knowledge extracted from the evolution process of each sub-population directly reflects the information about dominant search space. By migrating the knowledge among sub-populations at the constant interval, the algorithm realizes more effective interaction with less communication cost. Taken benchmark functions as the examples, simulation results indicate that the algorithm can effectively obtain the Pareto-optimal sets of multi-objective optimization problems. The distribution performance is also improved.

Abstract:
Aim/Purpose: Governments, private business, and academia have become increasingly aware of the importance of collaboration in multi-stakeholder, multicultural environments. This is due to the globalization and (developing) mutual relationships with other global partners, due to the often varying visions and goals between the respective organizations in managing projects that span those environments. Background: This research conducts a survey of literature pertaining to organizational collaboration in multi-stakeholder, multicultural environments in government, private business, and academic sectors, conducting an analysis to identify the gaps in the basic questions thus far explored in the literature. The gap analysis will expose the opportunities for greater collaboration in these environments. Methodology: The author conducted a literature review to identify existing research gaps to focus interviews that will develop multiple case studies in future research. Contribution/Findings: This literature review has determined gaps in understanding how contributing factors to cultural communication impact collaboration in multi-cultural, multi-stakeholder organizations, encouraging additional research in this area. Recommendations for Practitioners: Practitioners have the opportunity to develop their use of cultural communication contributing factors, potentially increasing their collaboration efficiency. Recommendation for Researchers: Researchers have opportunity to gather empirical evidence that factors of cultural communication may influence collaboration in the multi-cultural, multi-stakeholder environment. Impact on Society Improved understanding of how cultural communication factors influence collaboration in multi-cultural, multi-stakeholder organizations can improve organizational efficiency. Future Research: Gather empirical evidence that factors of cultural communication may influence collaboration in the multi-cultural, multi-stakeholder environment.

Abstract:
For the great majority of Canadian seniors the private automobile is the primary form of mobility, providing seniors accessibility, freedom and independence. The aging process often leads to a decline and/or compromises the ability to safely drive, resulting in the cessation of driving and/or need to cease driving. Given the importance of the private automobile and the negative consequences associated with driving cessation, a vast literature base exists examining seniors’ perceptions around driving cessation. Past literature has not examined ethnic seniors’ perceptions around driving cessation in later years. The premise of this thesis is to document ethnic seniors’ perceptions on the subject of driving cessation, drawing out ethnic differences in perceptions and highlighting where the information revealed within this thesis extends the current understanding on the topic of seniors’ perceptions around driving cessation. The researcher worked with seniors from the Asian, South Asian, Caucasian and Caribbean/African communities. A total of 351 seniors participated within the study, and the researcher conducted one-on-one interviews with each senior. Thematic analysis was used to code all interview data and the 6 overarching categories encapsulate ethnic seniors’ perceptions around driving cessation in the following ways: an individual perspective; a social perspective; an instrumental perspective; changing familial interactions post-cessation; public transit, transportation alternatives and transit accessible locations; provincial driving legislation and driving programs. Results demonstrate that seniors’ perceptions differ and/or coincide across ethnic groups, depending upon the category. Results demonstrate that ethnic seniors’ perceptions around driving cessation differ from those expressed in past literature on the topic, thereby adding and expanding the broader understanding regarding seniors’ perceptions around driving cessation. This thesis may be used by academics, health care professionals, government agencies, transit authorities, senior caregivers and seniors themselves to better understand seniors’ perceptions around driving cessation and to better develop strategies to work with seniors from different ethnic backgrounds in order to aid in a safe and supported transition from driver to non-driver.

Abstract:
The theory and practice of team integration has changed fundamentally over the last five years, driven by the growing demands of multi-cultural team working and greater understanding of cultural issues and diversity in the internationalised construction environment. According to the literature reviewed, the challenge to the construction industry in both developed and developing countries is to address its poor performance on people management by focusing on multicultural team working. Different reports published by governing bodies in developed countries such as the UK continue to highlight that clients need to improve their understanding of how construction can best meet their business needs and help lead the process of creating integrated teams. Consequently, there have been a number of empirical studies on project teams, particularly focussing on measures of team success. However, the consequences of transition from monoculture to multi-cultural project teams remain largely unexplored in construction management research.

Abstract:
Social Networking Sites allow users to manage their homepages to present themselves, and to interact with friends through networked connections. Some of these sites attract people from different cultural backgrounds (e.g. Facebook), providing an opportunity for online multi-cultural social networking to occur. This project aimed to contribute to cross-cultural Computer-Mediated Communication (CMC) research, by investigating this kind of multi-cultural social networking. It focussed upon: 1) the role of cultural differences on users’ perception of self-presentation of others; 2) the relationship between cross-cultural social capital and cross-cultural social networking on social networking sites; and 3) unveiling factors affecting users’ decisions regarding social networking interactions. The researcher firstly investigated whether cultural differences in online self-presentation through communication styles affect audiences’ perception, and whether audiences from different cultural backgrounds have different ways of perceiving others’ online self-presentation. Secondly, whether cross-cultural social capital was associated with the intensity of cross-cultural social networking, and through which ways users can obtain the benefits of social capital through social networking interactions. Lastly, explored the factors influencing users’ decisions on whether and/or how much effort to place upon each type of social networking.British and Chinese social networking users were chosen as research participants to represent two different cultural groups. By systematically comparing the difference between them, the results suggest: 1) Cultural differences in online self-presentation do influence people’s perception of others, though it is not the only factor that affects this perception. British and Chinese audiences tend to focus on different cues when perceiving online self-presentations. 2) Cross-cultural social capital was positively associated with cross-cultural social networking. Further interview analysis revealed all kinds of social networking interactions (i.e. observing, communicating, grouping) could help users obtain the benefits of bridging social capital (e.g. acquiring new information and diffusing reciprocity); however only communicating and grouping with strong relationships brought different aspects of the benefit of bonding social capital to British and Chinese users. For instance, communicating and grouping helped Chinese users receive substantive support and access to limited resources; whereas grouping with strong relationships helped British users mobilize solidarity. 3) Three main factors may influence users’ decisions regarding multi-cultural social networking interactions: (a) relationship strength - although both British and Chinese users tend to communicate mostly with strong relationships, they have differences in observing and grouping with different relationships. British users tend to observe mostly strong relationships and group with all relationships, whereas Chinese users tend to group mostly with strong relationships and observe all relationships; (b) perceived benefit of social capital - only bridging social capital benefit affected British users’ decision, whereas both bridging and bonding social capital benefits motivated Chinese users; and (c) users’ cultural background.

Abstract:

As the world’s markets are becoming more integrated and companies are outsourcing to other countries to a greater extent it is important for them to take the cultural aspects into consideration. We wanted to study if the different cultures affect the agent’s behaviour in a principal-agent relationship and focus on Sweden and China. When looking for research in this field we found that the cultural aspect of the principal-agent theory had been widely neglected.

We studied both the multi-tasking phenomena which is a theory closely linked to the principal-agent theory, as well as different cultural differences.

We found that there were large cultural differences between China and Sweden, but also similarities. We concluded our hypotheses on the different cultural differences which we then linked to the variation of preferences in contracts. These hypotheses were used to create, the MMA-model.

To test our MMA-model we conducted an experiment which we came to call the MMA-experiment. In order to test if our cultural generalizations based on the theoretical framework were true we let the participants fill out a questionnaire before the experiment. In short, the point of the experiment was to study how the cultural differences affected the choice of contracts in a multi-task environment.

The result of our experiment concluded that the MMA-model was accurate. We also found that the trust contract, in the way it was designed, was best when dealing with a multi-task environment.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis is concerned with the British neglect of education in Belize and the emergence of increased tensions between church and state, from the twin catalysts for social change of the 1931 hurricane and economic depression until independence in 1981. This conflict has revealed a contradictory web of power structures and their influence, through the medium of schools, on multi-cultural development. The fundamental argument is that despite a rhetoric- of-difference, a cohesive society was created in Belize rooted in the cultural values propagated through an often-contradictory church-state education system, and that Jesuit supremacy of Belizean education came too late to unsettle or exploit the grass-root forces of cultural synthesis. Racial conflict in Belize is more a matter of habitual rhetoric and superficial. The historiography of Belize falls broadly into two categories: Diplomatic and labour, nevertheless cultural and educational studies have developed most notably from Social Anthropology. An extensive literature review revealed that notwithstanding the emergence of a substantial historiography of education on the British Caribbean similar research has been neglected on Belize. Therefore, my own thesis fills a significant gap in the historiography of British Caribbean education. The PhD discusses the relationship between conflicting hierarchies within education and multi-cultural cohesion, not yet been fully attempted in any of the secondary literature. This is a proposition argued through substantial and original primary research, employing a mix of comparative empirical research and theoretical Sights influenced by historical sociologist Nigel Bolland to analyse the interactions of people at community level, the ubiquitous presence of the denominations, and political and hierarchical activities. The empirical data was initially collected from HMSO, and Colonial Office files at the Public Record Office. The principal methodological area of research for the PhD resulted from a visit to Belize to procure a quantity of oral testimony providing a 'history from below' as an extra dimension to the British Colonial perspective. The methodology for Part 3 (1964-1981) reveals shifts in the balance of power relying solely on oral evidence and archival/ecclesiastical records from Belize. Church historians have confirmed previous research into the latter to narratives. An important contributiog.to my area of study lies in the use of Belize as a central focus and the historical peculiarity of denominalisation, where, unlike the English system the church rather than the secular lobby won the contest for control in schools.

Ahsan, Samira, and Wahid bin Ahsan. Improving Adolescent Girls’ Well-Being Through Gender-Sensitive Sanitation in Suburban Bangladeshi Schools. Userhub, September 2023. http://dx.doi.org/10.58947/rtjw-pfvs.

Abstract:
In Bangladesh’s evolving educational sector, gender-responsive facilities remain notably deficient, especially in suburban schools. This qualitative study investigates the multi-layered challenges faced by adolescent girls due to inadequate gender-sensitive sanitation amenities in suburban educational institutions of Bangladesh. Participants include female students, educators, parents, and representatives from NGOs, thereby offering a comprehensive stakeholder perspective. The research illuminates the intersecting influences of sociocultural norms and infrastructural shortcomings on the education and well-being of adolescent girls. Key findings highlight not only the lack of proper sanitation facilities but also the existing cultural stigmas and gaps in menstrual health awareness, which collectively impact academic performance and psychological health. The study calls for an integrated approach, involving both community education and infrastructural improvement, to create a transformative educational environment that promotes gender equity.

Abstract:
The Global Engagement of Museums in Canada examines Canadian museum diplomacy, assessing the international activities of Canadian museums to consider the ways these institutions act as cultural diplomats on the global stage. The report presents the results of a multi-partner collaborative research project addressing the work of ten institutions, including the Art Gallery of Alberta; Aga Khan Museum; Canadian Museum of History; Canadian Museum of Immigration at Pier 21; Montreal Museum of Fine Arts; Museum of Anthropology at UBC; National Gallery of Canada; Ottawa Art Gallery; Pointe-à-Callière, Montréal Archaeology and History Complex; and the Royal Ontario Museum. Focusing on the period of 2009 to 2019, this report highlights new activities and methods within museum practice, while also grounding these within the context of developments in the last decade. Drawing on archival research, document analysis, and interviews with museum professionals, this research establishes baseline data on the global reach of Canadian museums and identifies best practices to share with the museum sector and cultural diplomacy community. Comprised of three sections, the report begins by presenting the framework for the project, explaining the logic behind the selection of institutions and the pedagogical considerations that informed our collective methodology. Second, the report provides a review of the literature in the field of cultural diplomacy, situating the research project. And third, the core of the project, are ten studies of specific institutions, drawn from the fieldwork conducted by the team. These institutional reports demonstrate the ways in which museums engage with a range of global activities and actors. They further address developing trends in the sector, while also suggesting future avenues for research. The Global Engagement of Museums in Canada is a research project led by Primary Investigators Jeffrey Brison and Sarah E.K. Smith. Funded by a Mitacs Accelerate Grant, the initiative is a collaboration between the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts and Queen’s University.

Abstract:
In this multi-component exercise, you have been recruited as community scientists to analyze real-world data collected in Vatu-i-Ra Seascape using non-destructive diver operated video (DOV) methods. These videos were previously collected by the Wildlife Conservation Society in collaboration with local divers in Fiji. Students will quantitatively analyze and use this data to assess the fisheries management efficacy of tabu areas—a traditional Fijian approach to create no-take, Marine Protected Areas—as a method of promoting marine biodiversity and improving overall ecosystem health using metrics such as fish abundance and coral reef complexity. During this exercise you will also learn about the importance and cultural significance of tabu areas in relation to ecosystem health and human livelihoods. You will be directed on how to visualize the results and summarize their conclusions through a written report in the style of a scientific journal article. In the discussion section of your scientific journal article, you are encouraged to critically think about study limitations and discuss future research directions to expand the project.

Abstract:
The aim of this project was to develop an impact framework for the Science Gallery Network (SGN). This work was commissioned by the Science Gallery International (SGI). The SGN has eight member organisations across four continents: Dublin, London, Melbourne, Bengaluru, Detroit, Rotterdam, Atlanta and Berlin. Whilst the network consistently sees unprecedented levels of accomplishment by its members, a testimony to their capacity, innovation and vision, the SGN does not have a systematic way to measure and monitor this impact. An impact framework that can assist with understanding and reporting the value of this impact will provide important recognition that the SGN has achieved what it sets out to do— bringing science, art, technology and design together to deliver world-class educational and cultural experiences for young people. This report details the robust consultation approach that was undertaken by the University of Melbourne’s project team—one that included a desktop review, focus group discussions, surveys and interviews—to ensure multiple perspectives were gathered on what could be considered a multi-faceted concept. The desktop review provided a thorough review and an environmental scan of the impact literature and its measurement. In addition, the focus group discussions and interviews provided a rich understanding of what ‘good impact’ means for the SGN and the implications of this to the measurement of impact outcomes. Five key recommendations are provided and summarised. Note that these key recommendations should be taken as a point of departure for further in-depth consultation throughout the wider SGN.

Abstract:
Policy and interventions should be informed by the best available evidence, but evaluations are not always optimally designed to inform decisions about policies and interventions in new contexts. Learning the most possible from evaluations is important; evaluating is expensive and policy makers should be confident about their decisions. Using evidence from previous studies can lead to better policy decisions, but there have been cases where doing so has led to interventions that have not worked. Learning from evaluations for decisions elsewhere has generally been more successful for interventions that are simple and are less context dependent (or context-dependent in a simple way, such as depending on the severity of the problem). With increasing focus on complex, context-dependent interventions, we need to ensure that evaluations can offer as much information as possible to guide decisions in other contexts. Consultation with DIFD to inform this paper underscored the points above. Examples where DIFD wants to learn more include: What has been learned from the recent outbreak of Ebola in West Africa that could inform future outbreaks, outbreaks of other diseases, or more generally about how health promotion can be reconciled quickly with cultural norms and expectations (such as to attend funerals and lay hands on deceased relatives)? What can be learned from the peace-process in Northern Ireland that could be applicable in South Sudan? What can be learned across evaluations of programmes that use mobile phone technology to change behaviours, both for future mobile-based interventions but also as a platform for understanding how habits can be changed efficiently? Large-scale, multi-component initiatives to improve the education system in a single country — what can the evaluation say about efforts to improve educational outcomes in other countries, and for engaging with public/private organisational cultures to affect change?The aim of this paper is to suggest possible ways to address the issue of learning more from evaluations and make recommendations for how CEDIL could advance this area in the programme of work. To achieve this aim, we conducted consultations with experts from a range of disciplines to identify key concepts and developed a framework for possible approaches. We summarised and contrasted the approaches and reflected on their potential to address DFID’s needs.
