Evaluating anti-doping education became mandatory with the introduction of the International Standard for Education. We argue that anti-doping education has the potential to have a social and societal impact not only in the sport context but beyond. Following this, we advise that outcome evaluation of anti-doping education should be holistic and focus on this social and societal impact rather than relying solely on outputs (what is delivered). To generate and evaluate the true impact of anti-doping education, we need to move beyond educating and start focusing on developing athletes’ competency instead. Adopting the personal agency concept and building on our preliminary work with anti-doping literacy, we propose one feasible way of designing such holistic evaluation tool. We argue that the mandatory evaluation should be approached from the impact angle and worked backwards to map what knowledge and skills are necessary to fulfil the impact, which should inform the content of anti-doping education – not the other way around.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":101167,"journal":{"name":"Societal Impacts","volume":"1 1","pages":"Article 100010"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2949697723000103/pdfft?md5=047e0d61fe7a50f3b29e5fefc4591c09&pid=1-s2.0-S2949697723000103-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"92136243","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper examined the societal benefits derived by a group of university students from engaging in community-based learning through the University of Arizona Community Garden (UACG). Based on interviews, participant observation, and students-based activities, the findings revealed that the community garden provided psychosocial benefits such as social interaction, and connection with nature. The findings highlight the co-benefits of integrating community garden projects into community-based learning pedagogies to realize psychosocial and environmental benefits. Scaling up such interventions through collaboration with community organizations can advance the role of higher education in the achievement of the SDGs.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":101167,"journal":{"name":"Societal Impacts","volume":"1 1","pages":"Article 100011"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"50191343","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The project involves the creation of a research infrastructure with a tangible scientific laboratory infrastructure and digital means to support decision making strategies based on accurate and easily accessible scientific data. It relies on the multidisciplinary approach of the management of agriculture operations through the synergy of various scientific fields. Farmers will have access to both agricultural and location reference data along with data of a legal nature. Autonomous equipment, such as networked sensors, ground/air robotic systems, will provide continuous, online, real-time data in the field and allow immediate actions with minimum human intervention. These data combined with periodic laboratory measurements/analyses create a complete, “intelligent” system of agricultural production based on the management of inputs in a field according to the real needs of cultivation both spatially and temporally. Automated scheduling of required field works, financial monitoring of the production and access to commercial information are used to support the management of the investment.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":101167,"journal":{"name":"Societal Impacts","volume":"1 1","pages":"Article 100007"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"50191342","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The analysis was based on risks related to these changes and their immediate and long-term effects on businesses. A list of 24 individual risks was created based on the findings of empirical study. The 6 most significant risks were further analyzed in terms of their impacts on societies. The increase in amount of products bought by consumers during the pandemic was the most severe risk. The findings provide businesses with guidelines to define their strategic goals and means to flexible adjust them when the next pandemic arises in the frame of sustainable development. Although the main cause of observed product brand substitutions that occurred during the pandemic was the lockdowns and production slowdown, many consumers also changed their preferences, which resulted in the substitution of products for other brands. Evidence shows that during the pandemic, consumers paid more attention to the ratio of price and quality of the product. However, social conscience will always be in conflict with selfish needs that also proved significant during the pandemic since excessive stockpiling and increase in waste production were observed.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":101167,"journal":{"name":"Societal Impacts","volume":"1 1","pages":"Article 100006"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"50191341","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study demonstrates the impacts of the failure of planning and policy responses to the walking environment on urban residents. In an important stakeholder engagement workshop involving a total of 40 participants, our study brought academics, institutional representatives and residents from the two neighbourhoods together to discuss the findings and establish a stronger collaborative relationship for designing an equitable and sustainable walking environment.

Why are so many problems –climate crisis, hunger, migrations, organized crime, inequality, desertification, pollution, etc.– out of control and getting worse? These high-complexity problems involve large numbers of actors, conflicts, issues, interpretations and cultures, and require pulling together knowledge from widely different sources to be possibly governed. Yet the master paradigm that has ruled humanity over the last four centuries –i.e., Cartesian, analytical or simplifying thinking– makes this practically impossible because of its principles of separation, reduction and abstraction that are embodied in today’s scientific disciplines. The Participatory Innovation (PI) Praxis offers a viable alternative, within the emerging post-Cartesian paradigm of systems thinking or complex thinking. PI’s theory comes from key systems thinkers: Ackoff, Ashby, Beer, Ozbekhan, Morin and Schein; its empirical grounds, from experiences in many fields and places, including hundreds of innovations. PI makes high-complexity challenges understandable and governable through methodical design and implementation of consensus social-cultural transformations, by using the astounding capacities of human minds and natural language to process complex meanings. This article illustrates the method with 25-year impacts of two cases in Chile. It closes by discussing implications for policy and for cultural and civilizational matters.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":101167,"journal":{"name":"Societal Impacts","volume":"1 1","pages":"Article 100004"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"50191337","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
