The Ghanaian energy organizations are dominated by men and masculinity cultures. Women are few in the sector and active in the lower-paid, non-technical fields. By their minority status, collective frustration of expectations and aspirations motivated gender transformations in the energy sector of Ghana. Deploying a multiple case study design, coupled with a qualitative approach, the paper found collective effort in promoting women in the energy sector of Ghana. A regime of expert platforms made up of ‘sisters in energy solidarity’ was also found, adopting gender strategic measures such as networking, mentorship, coaching programmes, advocacy, gender equity-driven energy initiatives aimed at re-engineering a shift in gender dynamics in the energy jobs of Ghana. This gender transformative regime among the energy work organizations implies inclusivity, diversity, alleviating women-energy poverty and a move towards achieving modern organizational status among the energy organizations in Ghana.","PeriodicalId":510648,"journal":{"name":"Sustainable Social Development","volume":"12 6","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139180902","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}

As thoughtful beings, we encounter unpleasant or stressful situations every day. In the comfort of home, behind closed doors, people resort to various ways of coping with stress, but when they are in common work areas, close to clients or colleagues, the inability to escape from stress often provokes inappropriate reactions and behavior. The obligation to behave ethically is all the higher, the closer contact with clients has the employee.

{"title":"Sustainable small-scale animal agriculture and food security in Africa","authors":"N. Assan","doi":"10.54517/ssd.v1i2.2342","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.54517/ssd.v1i2.2342","url":null,"abstract":"For Africa, smallholder livestock farming is crucial for rural livelihood and food security. Understanding the connections between food security, gender inequality, and climate change can help us find solutions to Africa’s persistent food crisis. Women’s participation in small-scale animal agriculture helps ensure the food security of households; however, climate change has a detrimental effect on animal productivity, so prioritizing climate-smart animal husbandry techniques is critical. The shift in animal agriculture toward sustainability must be fueled by gender-sensitive strategies. Production and food security will improve through a transdisciplinary strategy that recognizes the connections among small-scale animal agriculture, climate change, and gender issues. Policies that are adapted to local conditions and encourage equitable growth in small-scale animal agriculture will be necessary to address the challenges this sector faces and improve food security. The majority of developing nations have institutional and technical obstacles that could prohibit the small-scale farming sector from participating in new food security efforts aimed at enhancing rural livelihoods. Therefore, it is highly doubtful that any strategy created to improve food security while downplaying the importance of smallholder agriculture will be long-term viable. The discussion makes clear the importance of small-scale animal agriculture and offers potential solutions that could be adopted to transform the small-scale animal agriculture sector to increase its value and enhance food security across the continent.","PeriodicalId":510648,"journal":{"name":"Sustainable Social Development","volume":"31 ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139249966","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}

Freitas Santos","doi":"10.54517/ssd.v1i2.2328","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.54517/ssd.v1i2.2328","url":null,"abstract":"CF is an emerging financing source that aims to take advantage of information technology to fundraise money for new business projects. There are different models of CF that can be used in both the for-profit and social sectors. This article aims to study the use of crowdfunding in the Portuguese social sector. For this purpose, the objectives of the study are threefold: (i) to analyze the extent to which social organizations in Portugal have used CF; (ii) to analyze whether or not the use of CF is conditioned by the profile of these organizations; (iii) to assess whether the use of CF as a financial tool influences the capacity of the social organization to acquire other types of resources. The study uses a quantitative approach based on an online survey of 313 social organizations in Portugal. The results show that CF is not widely used by social organizations, although some characteristics seem to be associated with the use of CF, namely age, geographical scope, size and presence on social media. In addition, a positive relationship is found between the use of CF and the ability of social organizations to acquire resources and information.","PeriodicalId":510648,"journal":{"name":"Sustainable Social Development","volume":"182 5","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139256874","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}
