This study evaluates eight National One Health Strategic Plans using a mixed analytical approach, revealing varying degrees of alignment with core One Health principles and highlighting strengths and gaps to inform future initiatives. The framework combines qualitative, quantitative, and network analyses to assess content, terminology, and conceptual relationships within the plans.

This study examines the impact of tuition-free and compulsory lower secondary education policies in seven sub-Saharan African countries, using a differences-in-differences approach.

Since 2016, there have been significant developments in agrivoltaic farming and the role of solar energy harvesting. The use of agrivoltaic farming applications differs between various countries due to challenges such as technical and economic ones. A short description of various solar panels has been presented. It discussed plant parameters for agrivoltaic system use, an especially possible role of light saturation point. Technical parameters for optimization of agrivoltaics—how various heights, spacing, impact of density the shading under the panels.

Thermo-responsive polymer is becoming a potential water purification and water harvesting material. To clarify the water diffusion characteristics, the desorption ratio of liquid water and water vapor for a poly (N-isopropylacrylamide) was researched by the multi-scale method. Firstly, macro and micro structures for the hydrogel with different water content were characterized. Second, the dynamic moisture preserving status of the hydrogel during the desorption process were tested. Thirdly, the dynamic liquid-vapor desorption rate was quantified.
