It is essential for the construction of new knowledge. This synthesis proposes a critical analysis of existing studies on ethnoichthyology in order to identify gaps and guide future studies. The literature search was conducted using Google scholar and Agora. Synonyms of the words fish, ethnicity, knowledge and traditional were used to identify keywords. The identified keywords were entered into the English and French search engines. The literature search identified 237 documents on Agora and 71 documents on Google scholar. The documents selected for the systematic review are 31. The nomenclature of local fish names is related to morphological, behavioural or environmental traits of the fish. Fish species are used medicinally to treat many ailments including malaria, haemorrhoids, abdominal cramps and infections. Culturally, some species are used in wedding ceremonies, funerals, sacrifices etc. Very few documents in the literature deal with the cultural, medicinal and symbolic uses of fish. This synthesis evokes the need for a study of the classification value of local fish names without forgetting the socio-cultural, medicinal and symbolic uses of fish according to ethnic groups.","PeriodicalId":426143,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Frontline Research in Science and Technology","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125828684","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}

One of these strategies is organizational development diagnostic, which entails examining an organisation's current situation in order to decide the best course of action for future growth and development. The SEED GROWERS foundation was used as a case in this study to create evidence of the effects of organizational development intervention on organizational performance. To meet the study's aims, both qualitative and quantitative research methods were used, and data was gathered utilizing an organization capacity assessment instrument. The measure was developed using the Weisbord Six-Box Organizational Diagnosis Model, which comprises six variables: purpose, structure, connections, leadership, reward systems, and other helpful mechanisms. The outcome shows that the variables utilized in the assessment had a mean transformation score of 0.5, which is closer to the ideal score of one (1) than the pre-assessment mean score of 2.3. According to the computational results, the organizational development interventions were effective in moving the mean value closer to the ideal situation. Again, the Cohen's d test analysis score of 1.0 confirmed that the effect size of the transformation that happened as a result of the organizational development intervention is significant. What the above suggests is the effectiveness of organizational development intervention in fixing organizational problems, devising solutions, implementing, and assessing them. The report proposes that non-governmental organizations undergo organization development interventions on a regular basis in order to enhance their growth and development.","PeriodicalId":426143,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Frontline Research in Science and Technology","volume":"30 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122284005","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}
