Abstract

Background: Incorporating indigenous knowledge into formal education systems has gained global attention as a means to promote cultural sustainability, environmental awareness, and inclusive development. However, in many regions like Nigeria, indigenous knowledge remains underutilized in primary education. Objective: This study aimed to explore strategies for integrating indigenous knowledge into primary education in Nigeria and examine its impact on sustainable development and inclusive growth. Method: A descriptive survey design was employed, involving 111 participants comprising primary school teachers, educational administrators, and indigenous community members across selected Local Government Areas (LGAs) in Nigeria. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire validated by experts and pilot-tested with 30 respondents, yielding a reliability coefficient of 0.74. Data analysis involved descriptive statistics and Chi-Square tests. Result: Findings revealed that integrating indigenous language in curriculum development and utilizing hands-on materials and experimentation significantly enhanced students’ cultural and environmental understanding. Furthermore, these strategies fostered empathy, encouraged multicultural awareness, and led to improved educational outcomes among students from diverse backgrounds. Conclusion: The integration of indigenous knowledge into primary education supports sustainable development goals by enriching student learning and promoting inclusive educational practices. Contribution: This research provides practical insights for curriculum planners, educators, and policymakers on embedding indigenous knowledge systems into early education to drive sustainable and inclusive societal progress.

Abstract

Background: Women's objectification in film remains a critical issue, especially in narratives set within patriarchal societies. Ridley Scott’s The Last Duel (2021), which portrays a historical case of sexual violence, provides a compelling subject for examining how women’s experiences are represented. Objective: This study aims to analyze how the character Marguerite is objectified in the film The Last Duel, using both verbal and visual elements. Method: This qualitative research applies Martha Nussbaum's theory of objectification and Blain Brown's cinematography framework to examine dialogues and scenes involving Marguerite. Result: The film presents Marguerite through three narrative viewpoints: Jean de Carrouges, Jacques Le Gris, and Marguerite herself. While this technique provides a multifaceted look at events, it underrepresents Marguerite’s emotional depth and trauma as a sexual violence victim. Forms of objectification identified include instrumentality, denial of subjectivity, inertness, ownership, violability, and denial of autonomy. Conclusion: Marguerite's portrayal reflects the broader patriarchal values of 14th-century French society, where women's agency is suppressed, and their experiences are filtered through male perspectives. Contribution: This study contributes to feminist film criticism by highlighting the limitations of perspective-based storytelling in fully capturing women’s subjectivity, especially in narratives involving sexual violence.

Abstract

Background: This study investigates the key drivers influencing sustainability practices in the UK banking sector amid increasing global expectations aligned with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Objective: To explore stakeholder perceptions regarding banks’ sustainability efforts. Method: A quantitative research design was employed using an online survey administered to 191 randomly selected respondents from a population of 2.5 million stakeholders, including bank executives, employees, customers, investors, regulators, and advocacy groups. Data were collected through structured questionnaires and analyzed using descriptive statistics and t-tests. Results: The findings indicate that community engagement, corporate social responsibility, credible sustainability reporting, and financial performance significantly influence stakeholder perceptions. Conversely, transparency in reporting was not widely perceived as impactful. T-test results revealed no statistically significant factors, thereby supporting the null hypothesis. Conclusion: While UK banks exhibit alignment with SDGs 8, 9, 11, 12, 13, and 16, weak governmental influence underscores the need for stronger policy frameworks and intersectoral collaboration. Contribution: The study highlights the importance of enhancing stakeholder education and integrating environmental, social, and governance (ESG) principles into core banking strategies and operations.

Abstract

Background: Gender inequality remains prevalent despite efforts toward equality, as traditional roles and patriarchal structures still limit women's participation and access. Resolving this requires applying egalitarian principles effectively in policies and programs. Objective: This study aims to analyze gender issues from the perspective of egalitarianism, specifically how women and men are positioned equally in social status and roles. Methods: This research uses a qualitative approach with critical discourse analysis of various gender policies, programs, and discourses in the social context. Results: four main factors reflect the egalitarian principle: (1) policies and programs must reflect the experiences of both men and women, (2) women must have access and control over programs, (3) women need to be actively involved in policy planning and implementation, and (4) it is necessary to evaluate the impact of programs on women. Conclusion: Implementing gender equality requires a legal framework and the active participation of women in all decision-making stages. Contribution: This research enriches the study of gender and public policy and provides practical recommendations for policymakers and future researchers to create a more equitable and inclusive social environment.

Abstract

Background: Human trafficking, particularly involving women and children, remains a pervasive and deeply rooted issue in Nigeria. Despite existing laws and interventions, systemic weaknesses continue to hinder effective responses to trafficking. Objective: This study examines the key socio-economic, legal, and institutional challenges that impede efforts to combat human trafficking in Nigeria, with a focus on women and children. Method: A qualitative research approach was adopted, utilizing document analysis. Data were drawn from policy documents, official reports, and academic literature. Sources included government agencies, international organizations, and non-governmental organizations. The data were analyzed using a thematic review framework to ensure depth and integrity. Result: The study found that corruption, official complicity, and poor law enforcement are major obstacles to anti-trafficking initiatives. Other contributing factors include inadequate victim support systems, social stigma, cultural barriers, legal loopholes, and weak border control. Socioeconomic drivers such as poverty and unemployment further increase vulnerability to trafficking. Additionally, the misuse of technology has facilitated more complex trafficking networks, while limited international cooperation and insufficient funding continue to undermine progress. Conclusion: Combating human trafficking in Nigeria requires comprehensive legal reform, stronger institutional accountability, enhanced support for victims, robust public awareness campaigns, and greater international collaboration. A coordinated and sustainable national strategy is essential to address the multifaceted nature of the problem. Contribution: This study offers critical insights into the structural and systemic drivers of human trafficking in Nigeria and provides practical policy recommendations for enhancing the effectiveness of anti-trafficking efforts at both national and international levels.

Abstract

Background: Composite flours from indigenous crops offer a pathway to healthier snacks, dietary diversity, and reduced reliance on imported wheat, but must meet consumer sensory expectations to be viable. Objective: This study aims to evaluate the sensory properties of cakes made from composite flour blends of wheat, cocoyam, plantain, and bambara nut, and to identify formulations that balance acceptability with functional nutrition potential. Method: An experimental research design was adopted, which allowed for the systematic production and evaluation of cakes prepared from composite flour blends of wheat, cocoyam, plantain, and bambara nut. Result: The sensory evaluation results showed variations in judges’ ratings of cakes made from wheat, cocoyam, plantain, and bambara nut blends compared with 100% wheat cake. Conclusion: These findings support food diversification, partial substitution of imported wheat, and household-scale production through simple SOPs and quality control within the framework of Sustainable Development through Household Economic Units, thereby strengthening local supply chains and micro-business opportunities. Contribution: This study provides empirical evidence that cakes with acceptable sensory quality and nutritional enrichment can promote Sustainable Development through Household Economic Units through simple household-scale SOPs, basic quality control, utilization of local crops, partial wheat substitution, and gender-responsive microenterprises.
