 Abstract

: BIMSTEC came into existence in 1997 with the primary goal of improving connectivity between South Asia and Southeast Asia. The organization holds immense potential with various opportunities like easy facilitation of people-to-people connections and its advantageous geographical location. However, despite these advantages, BIMSTEC faces substantial challenges, notably political instability and the ongoing struggle to establish free trade within its framework. In this paper, we draw the conclusion that the effectiveness of this organization hinges on the concerted efforts of member countries to address these challenges. By tackling issues such as political instability and actively working towards the realization of free trade agreements, BIMSTEC can ascend to a higher level of influence and impact in the region. Additionally, we propose the idea that India, being a prominent member, should assume the role of a "big brother." By taking on a leadership role and fostering collaboration among member nations, India can play a pivotal role in steering BIMSTEC towards overcoming its challenges and realizing its full potential as a catalyst for regional connectivity and cooperation.

 Abstract

The civilization of Balochistan which covers present-day northwest Pakistan and the eastern frontiers of Iran and Afghanistan has recorded history since 650BCE. However, this article aims to discuss the most recent accounts since the invasion of the British Empire and later, accession to the Islamic State of Pakistan. This province has been in a state of conflict since the formation of the sovereign nation. While Baloch nationalists argue that it was a separate nation, Pakistan counters with its admission to British India in 1935. Human Rights violations, suppression of insurgencies, cultural fascism and extrajudicial killings are a few of the assertions against the military and government of Pakistan. With new international stages provided to Baloch nationalist voices, a study of the ongoing conflict becomes more important.

This research is focused on the mobile based payment services for financial inclusion and sustainability in developing countries. Owing to their differences from more usual mobile-based banking and payment services, such technology is being aggressively promoted by providers of network telecommunication companies. However, the factors influencing its sustainable acceptance remain largely unknown. Study shows Technology Acceptance Model (TAM), by reviewing the different research published on TAM and its relationship with the Sustainability on M-Payment Apps. The research study is assessed with secondary data and prospective Mobile Payment user's approach. Based on the previous research study the perceived ease-of-use is the most significant factor influencing consumers' attitudes to us M-Payment Apps for sustainable development. While perceived usefulness and influence adoption decisions, their impact is much lower. Similarly, the consumer attitudes and intentions were found to have a significant relationship with TAM. These findings will be useful to retain prevailing users and attract new ones, that ultimately helps in sustainable development.

 Abstract

This research investigates the merging of education and psychology in order to promote a holistic approach to improve learning and well-being in educational environments. The theoretical framework emphasizes the symbiotic relationship between teaching and psychological concepts, emphasizing an in-depth understanding of students' cognitive and emotional growth. The curriculum integrates evidence-based solutions to accommodate various learning styles and socio-emotional needs, resulting in a more inclusive educational experience. A focal element is teacher training, which provides educators with the tools they need to incorporate psychological insights into their teaching approaches, to create an environment suitable for both intellectual and emotional growth. Through interactive and personalized techniques, student engagement is prioritized, generating intrinsic motivation and a sense of ownership in the learning process. Methods of assessment and evaluation are matched with both academic and socio-emotional milestones, allowing for a more nuanced view of student growth. Social-emotional learning (SEL) is weaved into the curriculum, developing crucial life skills and emotional intelligence. Parental involvement is advocated as a major component, with educators and parents working together to facilitate holistic development. Recognizing the importance of surroundings on the learning experience, the school environment and culture are meant to be positive, inclusive, and conducive to well-being. Long-term goals include developing well-rounded persons with academic proficiency, emotional resilience, and a feeling of community. This integrated strategy aims to provide a happy and supportive educational environment, creating the groundwork for lifelong learning and flourishing well-being.

 Abstract

As the world grapples with the challenges of climate change and the finite nature of fossil fuels, the quest for sustainable energy sources has never been more urgent. Hybrid power generation systems, which combine multiple renewable energy sources with conventional power generation technologies, offer a promising solution to meet the increasing energy demands while reducing greenhouse gas emissions. This paper provides a comprehensive overview of hybrid power generation systems, highlighting the structure, architecture and potential for a sustainable energy future with hybrid power generation systems. We examine various hybrid system configurations, case studies, and technological advancements that have contributed to the rapid adoption of these systems. The paper concludes by emphasizing the critical role that hybrid systems can play in achieving a cleaner and more sustainable energy landscape.
