Environmental Sustainability and Agenda 2030 : Efforts, Progress and Prospects
Actions to accomplish Agenda 2030 have gained propulsion across time yet remain undetermined in several respects.This volume draws attention to environmental-related Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and the progress of implementation at country and company levels, underscoring the urgent actions needed. Environmental Sustainability and Agenda 2030: Efforts, Progress & Prospects documents the status of environmental SDG implementation in the two developing blocs of BRICS and MINTS, highlighting the reporting practices across these countries.Contributors illustrate that multi-stakeholder participation using group model-building exercises can be practically helpful to generate a shared mental model of multiple stakeholders in conflict.Further insights with practical implications for managers and policy makers include mechanisms for managing modern slavery through corporate social reporting practices, minimising slavery in domestic and global supply chains; use of sustainability accounting in accomplishing Agenda 2030; corporate motivation for disclosing clean water and sanitation (SDG-6) related actions; and the state of corporate environmental reporting research in sub-Saharan Africa.

Work in Progress : The Road to Empowerment, The Journey Through Shame
In Work in Progress, Dr. Abbie Maroño debunks the pervasive myth that shame is the antithesis of empowerment, revealing how, if understood and embraced, it can guide us towards our most authentic selves. Popular media often offers individuals empty promises of empowerment, urging them to become ‘bulletproof.’ It also portrays shame as the antithesis of empowerment.Yet, in reality, shame signals when one’s actions don’t align with their ideal self.By dismissing this signal, they hinder their journey to becoming their best selves.True empowerment arises when one cultivates a healthy relationship with shame. Work in Progress delves into the science of shame and empowerment, equipping people to navigate their feelings of shame and transition into a state of empowerment.While many books on empowerment are well-intentioned, they often overlook or misinterpret the science behind individuals’ experiences of shame, how they reconcile their self-perception with their surroundings, and how they achieve empowerment amidst its elusive definition.This work challenges the idea that empowerment is exclusively a feminist concept reserved for women.It underscores that empowerment is universal, accessible to all, no matter who they are.

Scientific Progress
What constitutes cognitive scientific progress? This Element begins with an extensive survey of the contemporary debate on how to answer this question.It provides a blow-by-blow critical summary of the key literature on the issue over the past fifteen years, covering the central positions and arguments therein.It also draws upon older literature, where appropriate, to inform the treatment.The Element then enters novel territory by considering meta-normative issues concerning scientific progress.It focuses on how the standards involved in assessing progress arise.Does science have aims, which determine what counts as progress, as many authors assume?If so, what is it to be an aim of science? And how does one identify such things? If not, how do normative standards arise? After arguing that science does not have overarching aims, the Element proposes that the standards are ultimately subjective.
