Utilizing a time series data, the study adopted the Vector Error Correction Model (VECM) for result analysis. Over the long run, domestic debt was found to have a negative impact on monetary policy rate, with the reverse observed for the short run. However, both models yielded statistically insignificant results. Nevertheless, the study revealed a statistically significant relationship between inflation and real GDP with the monetary policy rate in the long run, indicating a positive and negative impact, respectively. In the short run, only inflation was found to be statistically significant. The study's findings and analysis were found to be reliable as there was no evidence of serial correlation or heteroskedasticity in the model. In the end, the study was able to address a crucial gap in the literature on public debt by primarily investigating the influence of domestic debt on monetary policy rate in Ghana.","PeriodicalId":492418,"journal":{"name":"International journal of development and economic sustainability","volume":"100 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134998878","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}

A structured questionnaire was accustomed collect data from a sample of 371 taxpayers who were selected by employing a non-random sampling technique. A binary logistic regression model was employed to research the info and therefore the results of the study revealed that there's a statistically significant association between evasion and eight determinant variables (tax education, service quality, tax rate, income level, and fairness of legal system, financial Constraint, audit, and penalty). evasion has positively suffered from the rate, income level, audit, and fairness of the legal system and is negatively influenced by financial Constraints, tax education, service quality, and penalty. supported the finding of the study the subsequent policy recommendations are forwarded. These are the government should reduce the rate, and therefore the tax delivery system should be automated to make sure efficiency and quality delivery among money others.","PeriodicalId":492418,"journal":{"name":"International journal of development and economic sustainability","volume":"218 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134998616","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 aim of this study was to analyse the human development of Kenya using the HDI index. HDI is a composite measurement of human well-being that includes data on life expectancy, income, and education. This study specifically analyzed the trends in HDI of Kenya since 2012 to 2022 and compared it with other countries in East African Community. A multidimensional concept was investigated using both qualitative and quantitative approaches. The research of human development was concentrated on Kenya and the countries of the East Africa Community, basing on secondary data from existing Governmental and Non-Governmental publications. The geometric mean of the normalised indices for life expectancy, GNI, and education makes up the HDI. The life expectancy at birth is used to evaluate the health dimension, while the mean number of years spent in school for persons 25 years and older and the anticipated number of years spent in school for young children are used to evaluate the education dimension. The measure of the standard of life is the gross national income per person. Kenya is a country with a medium level of human development, ranked 152nd out of 189 nations in 2022 with HDI of 0.598. A number of factors, including inequalities, influence the HID in Kenya. The results of this analysis highlight Kenya's accomplishments in terms of human development over the previous ten years. Kenya had the highest HDI score in East African Community, followed by Tanzania and Uganda. For the recommendation the policymakers and stakeholders can apply these findings to design targeted strategies and policies that address regional differences, promote gender equality, and further boost human development in Kenya and East African Community.","PeriodicalId":492418,"journal":{"name":"International journal of development and economic sustainability","volume":"98 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134998876","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}

Although contributing to global economic development, port activities can have negative impacts on coastal areas and marine biodiversity. This article presents the actions taken by the Port of San Pedro in the context of sustainable development. A qualitative methodology was used to study the port's sustainable practices, with the environmental manager being interviewed. The results show that the port, as a state authority, implements sustainable practices such as tree planting, environmental impact assessments, and the valorization of port waste into clean energy. In addition, several actions taken have resulted in the port obtaining various ISO certifications. Furthermore, the Port Autonomous de San Pedro is contributing to the momentum for environmental protection.","PeriodicalId":492418,"journal":{"name":"International journal of development and economic sustainability","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134998879","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 study presented evidence that suggested, scientific data analysis linking manmade causes or pollution to climate change does not exist. Walters and Djokic Quantitative Analysis Factor Distortion Theory expanded Eddison Walters Modern Economic Analysis Theory which was developed by Walters (2020A) and was expanded by Walters and Djokic (2022). Walters and Djokic Quantitative Analysis Factor Distortion Theory which was explained in Walters and Djokic (2022) resulted in proposed changes by the researchers to restore the reliability and creditability of data analysis in scientific research. The researchers called for the implementation of changes to American Psychological Association (APA) standards aimed at avoiding junk science such as research that incorrectly links pollution or manmade causes to climate change without scientific evidence based on scientific data analysis from being accepted into the body of literature as scientific research (Walters, 2020: Walters, 2021; Walters & Djokic, 2022). The foundation of Walters and Djokic Quantitative Analysis Factor Distortion Theory is grounded in the principle, of \"all else being equal\", which has been a long-established principle for the scientific analysis of data to ensure unknown factors do not distort the results of data analysis. The current study applied the principles of Walter and Djokic Quantitative Analysis Factor Distortion Theory for evaluating the creditability of directing taxpayer resources to green energy policies aimed and reversing climate change. The current study also considered what segment of the population benefits the most from green energy policies and what segment of the population shoulders the cost burden. The current study considered the opportunity cost of allocating taxpayer resources to implement green energy policy by considering challenges facing American taxpayers where the results of investments have quantifiable scientific measurements for successful implementation rather than committing resources to implement green energy policy with no quantifiable scientific measurements for successful implementation","PeriodicalId":492418,"journal":{"name":"International journal of development and economic sustainability","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135698086","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}
