Moocs and universities for sustainable development
The quality of, and access to, education for sustainable development (ESD) are at the forefront of e-learning. Assuming that there are opportunities to judiciously examine the potential of massive open online courses (MOOCs) to foster ESD, this article carries out a multi-method scoping review to identify emerging research themes and analyse gaps in the literature, based on: (1) an environmental scan of sustainable development-related MOOCs; (2) …
Strategic analysis of response to the 2023 Earthquake—eight years after the 2015 Earthquake
Tourism enterprises in Indonesia and the fourth industrial revolution – are they ready
Disruptive potential associated with the Fourth Industrial Revolution (4IR) has received significant attention in the context of the tourism sector. However, although the inability of tourism enterprises to harness the 4IR can adversely impact tourism enterprises, it remains an underexplored topic in emerging economies. This research note responds to this gap and compares the 4IR readiness of tourism enterprises in two different Indonesian destin…
Can Online Short Courses Foster Business Education for Sustainable Development
The COVID-19 pandemic challenged the practice of traditional higher education providers (HEPs) and highlighted the need for innovative approaches to education for sustainable development. This research note focuses on online short courses (OSCs)—micro-credentials geared at upskilling or reskilling learners with a competitive application process and cost. It conducts (a) a rapid bibliometric analysis of literature on the nexus between OSCs and sus…
Ageing population and society
The ageing population and society (APS) nexus is one of the key grand challenges of this millennium. And yet, the systematic analysis of scholarly literature on the APS nexus has remained under the radar. This study responds to this gap and employs a quantitative approach through a scientometric analysis of literature on the APS nexus to inform policy discussions and guide future research directions. This study adopts quantitative scientometric m…
Ageing Asia and the Pacific in Changing Times
Decent work for sustainable development in post‐crisis Nepal
Although the Decent Work agenda has received significant attention in the context of sustainable development, the formulation and implementation of appropriate social policies in developing countries remain an underexplored subject. This article responds to this gap and traces country‐specific Decent Work related policies and programs in Nepal—which is recovering from two major crises: a decade‐long armed conflict that ended in 2006 as well as th…
Analysing news media coverage of the 2015 Nepal earthquake using a community capitals lens
South Asia is one of the regions of the world most vulnerable to natural disasters. Although news media analyses of disasters have been conducted frequently in various settings globally, there is little research on populous South Asia. This paper begins to fill this gap by evaluating local and foreign news media coverage of the earthquake in Nepal on 25 April 2015. It broadens the examination of news media coverage of disaster response beyond tra…
Inclusion and work
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to outline the key global challenges relating to youth employment and consider some ways that they may be addressed to allow their inclusion in the contemporary workplace. Also, the paper provides a brief introduction and rationale for the other five articles comprising this special issue volume. Design/methodology/approach The approach concerns a review of the relevant literature and reports on the topic. Fin…
Youth unemployment amidst aged care workers shortages in Australia
Purpose: The broader challenges of youth employment and ageing population have collectively received global attention in the Sustainable Development Goals. Under the assumption that there are fertile opportunities to judiciously address the youth unemployment and labour shortages within the aged care sector, the purpose of this paper is to draw on the experiences of millennial aged care workers (MACWs) in Western Australia (WA). Design/methodolog…
International aid and cyclone shelters in Bangladesh
This paper examines the unintended prospect of international aid-driven maladaptation in Bangladesh. While attempts by aid agencies to channel scarce resources to finance structural adaptation measures are commendable, complementary non-structural measures remain under the radar. Using an exploratory research approach this paper investigates the state of cyclone shelters in two coastal districts: Chittagong and Cox's Bazar. The findings indicate …
A methodological framework for ascertaining the social capital of environmental community organisations in urban Australia
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to ascertain the level of social capital in environmental community organisations (ECOs) in Perth, Western Australia. On a general level, social capital in ECOs is understood as intra-organisational and inter-organisational relationships that organisations maintain through interactions. Design/methodology/approach – This paper utilises quantitative (i.e. survey) as well as qualitative (i.e. interviews) appro…
Can Environmental Governance Benefit From an ICT-Social Capital Nexus in Civil Society
Although the potential of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) to foster social capital in civil society has been duly acknowledged, few studies have empirically explored the ICT-social capital nexus in the context of community organizations. Huysman and Wulf (2004) consider the lack of interest in the area of ‘ICT and social capital’ as worrisome in today’s increasingly network-centric society. Since the prospect of ICT furthering so…
Using Appreciative Inquiry as a Tool for Revitalizing Community Organisations
WISALTS Inc. is one of the oldest Environmental Community Organisations (ECOs) active in Western Australia (WA). The organisation has been tackling the issue of land degradation in the agricultural areas since 1978. However, declining membership as well as the departure of key leaders has cast uncertainty over its future. It has been argued that the Appreciative Inquiry (AI) approach has the potential to induce sustainable transformative change w…
The Five Capitals Framework for Exploring the State of Friends’ Groups in Perth, Western Australia
Community groups have become a vital component of urban environmental stewardship initiatives in Australia. The contributions of these groups are imperative in cities like Perth where nearly two-third wetlands/bushland ecosystems have been lost in the past 150 years and the remnant ecosystems are continually under threat from the potential redevelopment. It is estimated that more than 400 community groups known as Friends' Groups (FGs) are active…
