This research explored why graduate Azerbaijani education students chose to pursue their overseas education in Turkey, which factors they took into consideration, and what contributions this education will provide both them and their countries. The phenomenological model was utilized in the research. The research comprised 25 Azerbaijani students enrolled at the graduate-level in Eskişehir Osmangazi and Anadolu Universities in the 2017-2018 academic year. The interviews were coded with content analysis and formed themes and subthemes. The findings reflected that Azerbaijani students viewed Turkey as a ‘sister’ city and therefore preferred to study their overseas education there because of the common religion, language, and the cultural proximity. Moreover Eskişehir has suitable living conditions for the students due to a favorable economy.

The number of Syrian students in higher education in Turkey is increasing every year. In the 2019-2020 academic year, this number has reached 37,236. During this period, Harran University ranks first among 209 universities with 2,677 Syrian students, with the highest number of Syrian students studying in the university. One of the most fundamental facts inherent in migration is the human encounter experienced by the migrants and host communities. Both communities are affected by this encounter in various ways. In this study, social inclusion problems faced by Syrian asylum seeker higher education students throughout their education and daily life have been highlighted, and an evaluation has been made on the social experiences and problems faced by Syrian students studying at Harran University. For this purpose, two focus group meetings were held, each with six participants. The data obtained from focus group interviews were analyzed within the framework of various basic problems such as acceptance, social interaction, uncertainty, foreignness, stigmatization, and marginalization. The main problem of this study is that Syrian students have a high desire to participate in society and live together, but they continue to experience problems such as marginalization, exclusion, and deprivation of psycho-social support in different ways.

AbstractFor the transition towards a circular economy (CE), organisations have to be prepared to adapt to major changes. Thus, the concept and implementation of change management (CM) will be essential to an organisation’s success during this transformative period. Studies have shown that organisational CE barriers were more significant than individual CE barriers. To overcome such obstacles, the most appropriate set of managerial practices should be carefully considered. These barriers also have the potential to influence the agricultural sector, which seeks to adopt more sustainable ways of production. The goal of this paper is to propose a solution framework based on CM strategies to overcome organisational challenges posed by a CE, especially for agribusinesses. To accomplish this objectively, a systematic literature review and a content analysis were conducted. The common errors in CM within the implementation process and the main CE barriers were identified and classified. An in-depth analysis of the issue’s roots led to a solid understanding of how to tackle such CM problems. This paper presents an overview of organisational CE barriers verified in the agricultural context, the common errors in CM, and the correlation between these findings. The two areas were then combined in a matrix that shows the connection between common errors in CM errors and CE barriers. Based on this result, a solution framework called 3CE2CE was developed that provides a step-by-step guide on how organisations can successfully undergo transformation processes towards a CE with the principles of CM.

Abstract Background Period poverty refers to a lack of access to safe means of managing menstruation. It affects the education, health and dignity of millions of women and girls globally. This study aims to identify the barriers facing menstruating girls in rural Uganda, investigate the effects of period poverty in this demographic and assess the need to implement a programme to tackle challenges identified. Methods A qualitative study was undertaken in a community setting. 42 Participants were selected in Bududa, Uganda using convenience sampling. School-age girls supported by The Shelo Foundation (charity no.1155142) who had begun menstruating and adults in positions of responsibility in the community were interviewed to gain a cross sectional understanding of the questions posed. Data was collected prospectively in semi-structured interviews over a four-week period in July 2013. Questions focused on access to essential hygiene materials, challenges faced when menstruating (with a focus on accessing education) and possible solutions to the barriers reported. Interview transcripts were analysed; the common concepts were identified, and conclusions drawn from the results. Results Inability to access sanitation products, due to financial poverty and local availability, was the main challenge highlighted throughout the analysis of the interview transcripts. The other common themes included lack of suitable hygiene facilities, absence of education on menstruation and the vulnerability of menstruating girls to abuse and stigma. Analysis found that on average girls were missing three days of school a month due to their periods, equalling 18% of the academic year. Conclusions Period poverty disadvantages school-aged females in Bududa, Uganda. Financial poverty, lack of education and stigma contribute to period poverty. An intervention programme including accessible sanitation products and education is recommended to tackle this gender inequality for girls in this population. Key messages A lack of sanitation products, subpar education and stigma contribute to period poverty in Uganda and negatively impact female education with menstruating students missing up to 18% of a school year. An intervention programme incorporating access to sanitation products alongside education is recommended to tackle period poverty in this population and improve women’s health and female education.
