Abstract: The influence of digital technology in Nigerian theatrical performances happens to be often used for the sake of entertainment and publicity but not as an integral part of directing or playmaking. Migration encounters this new media approach to directing Nigerian plays where audiences in the diaspora can always have a feel of their cultural identity, in the pieces of rituals and customs when watching stage performances in the digital space. African traditional theatre can be performed in any space and still be given a global view with the aid of digital live-streaming devices and YouTube. Therefore, this paper shall be taking a broad exposition into inquiring if the knowledge of digital media can be applied to the African understanding of theatre and the representation of old age as a disability in performances. Also, do African countries have what it takes to imbibe the digital culture, and what does it take to get Africans especially the aged audiences to benefit from this? Data is collected from selected African stage performances on YouTube to consider the indices that will foster transitions from traditional to digital performance modes. This research is pivotal to the artistic application of multimedia as a tool in solving the misrepresentation of old age on stage. The paper draws the attention of theatre practitioners, theorists, academics, students, activists, and policymakers, on the issue of migration and identity crisis through the stereotypical depiction of aged characters on stage.

Abstract: The study was about climate change impact resolution assessment through small grain crops adaptability shift acceptance at producer / consumer levels among the Zimbabwean communities. Climate change recurrence, extinction of nutritionally rich, health stabilizing, drought tolerant and low production cost small cereal grain crop, finger millet, prompted a strong drive in the execution of this study. Relevant literature was sort, succeeded by the research study which adopted both quantitative and qualitative methodologies coupled with convenience sampling and cohort study in gathering data. Questionnaires were confined to 100 respondents consisting of small holder and rural farmers as producers and the public as consumers. Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) was used to capture questionnaire raw data on which frequency tables and correlation were run. Producer / consumer perceptions, preferences, and attitudes were key variables used among others. Change theories, applied in latent, were deemed necessary for similar future studies. Conclusion, and references were finally presented, and the resultant study outcome showed a dragged and heterogeneous production outcome against highly acceptable consumer by – product preferences.

Abstract: COVID-19 is a pandemic that is currently ravaging the world, with unprecedented disruptions being witnessed. Many governments have imposed restrictions on movement and several measures to contain its spread, including social and physical distancing, hence directive to work from home. This has disrupted the office, as it used to be, with little time to prepare for the sudden change. Working from home poses new risks and opportunities for organisation and it is imperative that the board effectively manage this to sustain organisation’s operations. Using exploratory research design, this paper reviews these risks and opportunities and hence the practicable options in managing them amidst the pandemic. Key to this is the ability to learn, in line with absorptive capacity theory. It finds that the board can no longer rely on traditional risk management techniques, given the speed of digital transformation, but it underscores the critical importance of strategic risk management. This paper concludes that developing adoptive capacity to exploit emerging mechanisms in teleworking is inevitable and combining risk and compliance management in corporate government is key to corporate resilience and competitive advantage.

Abstract: With environmental degradation intensifying due to energy demand escalation and population growth, achieving global decarbonization has become critically urgent. As a major contributor, transforming how buildings offers immense potential. This paper examines possibilities for deploying green hydrogen systems in buildings to align New Zealand with wider climate targets. The paper addresses hydrogen produced from renewable-powered electrolysis for sustainable low-emission heating and power, as well as decentralized hydrogen solutions for localized energy resilience. Analysis of the literature indicates research focused on integrating hydrogen technologies within buildings is scarce. This is constituting a key research gap.

By extensively analysing scholarly literature, this paper offers significant elucidation around the complex interlinkages driving energy usage and emissions, and hydrogen’s role in sustainable transitions. It also defines key future research needs, questions, aims and objectives for future research in green hydrogen-based technologies across New Zealand’s built environment. Specifically, it evaluates economic feasibility, safety perceptions, policy levers, environmental impacts and technology maturity. This review informs practical roadmaps and decisions amongst multiple stakeholders, equipping them to leverage hydrogen’s versatility for accelerating building decarbonization. Thereby it contributes robust perspectives toward attaining low-carbon, resilient built environments to contribute to New Zealand’s legal and moral responsibilities under the terms of the Paris Climate Accord.

Abstract: Fashion trend forecasting (FTF) is indeed a crucial aspect of the textile, apparel, and retail industries. The dynamic nature of the fashion industry, characterized by rapid changes in consumer preferences, makes accurate trend forecasting vital for the success of companies in this sector. Trend forecasters play a pivotal role in providing manufacturers, brand managers, and retailers with essential information about upcoming styles, fabrics, patterns, and colors that will be in demand. The fashion industry is highly time-dependent, with trends evolving rapidly. Forecasters must stay ahead of these changes, providing accurate and timely predictions to enable companies to adjust their strategies and production plans accordingly. The purpose of this study was to examine the state of the FTF industry and to gain insights into the changing landscape, challenges, and opportunities faced by the industry

Abstract: Background: Unani medicine introduces the concept of Mizaj, representing an individual's inherent temperament and constitution. This study explores the intriguing connection between Mizaj and the levels of two crucial reproductive hormones, Luteinizing Hormone (LH) and Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH), in women.

Methods: The study involved 120 women, categorized into four distinct Mizaj types: Balghami, Damvi, Safravi, and Saudavi. Mizaj assessment was conducted using the Ajnas-e-Ashra classification system. Hormonal assays for FSH and LH were performed on day 3 of the menstrual cycle.

Results: The study revealed a significant correlation between Mizaj types and FSH and LH levels. Balghami Mizaj women exhibited markedly higher FSH and LH levels in comparison to Safravi and Damvi Mizaj types, while no substantial differences were observed between Balghami and Saudavi Mizaj.

Discussion: These findings underscore the profound impact of Mizaj on the regulation of FSH and LH levels in women. The results prompt intriguing questions about the implications of Mizaj's assessment in understanding factors influencing fertility and reproductive health.

Conclusion: This study illuminates the intricate relationship between Mizaj and hormonal levels, particularly in Balghami Mizaj women who exhibited significantly higher FSH and LH levels. These findings hold the potential to enhance our comprehension of women's health and guide future research in this area.
