Development and evaluation of accessible online solutions for users with disabilities
Get PDFV diplomskem delu smo analizirali dejavnike uporabniške izkušnje, ter vpliv dostopnosti na njeno celovitost v digitalnih produktih. Raziskali smo, kako dostopnost izboljšuje izkušnjo za vse uporabnike, še posebej pa za tiste z omejitvami. Razvili smo prototip mobilne spletne trgovine za prehranske dodatke, pri čemer smo upoštevali smernice WCAG za zagotavljanje dostopnosti. Testiranje uporabnikov različnih starostnih skupin je pokazalo, očitno degradacijo vidnih, kognitivnih in motoričnih sposobnosti povezanih s starostjo ter, da je naš prototip dostopen in uporaben za uporabnike vseh starostnih skupin, saj nismo zaznali večjih točk trenja. Ugotovili smo, da dostopnost bistveno izboljša uporabniško izkušnjo, predvsem za uporabnike z ovirami.In the diploma thesis, we analyzed the factors of user experience and the impact of accessibility on its completeness in digital products. We explored how accessibility enhances the experience for all users, particularly those with limitations. We developed a prototype of a mobile online store for supplements, following WCAG guidelines to ensure accessibility. User testing across different
age groups revealed significant degradation in visual, cognitive, and motor skills related to aging, and confirmed that our prototype is accessible and usable for all age groups, as no major pain points were identified. We concluded that accessibility significantly improves user experience, especially for users with disabilities
Isolation of enzymes and proteins from the black yeast Wallemia Ichthyophaga cells using a mechanical process
Get PDFV svetu s hitro naraščajočo populacijo, onesnaženostjo in z izčrpanjem številnih naravnih virov, encimska tehnologija ponuja velik potencial za številne industrijske aplikacije. Nekatera področja, kjer se uporablja encimska tehnologija, so prehrambena industrija (encimi se uporabljajo za izboljšanje proizvodnje hrane, na primer pri predelavi žit, proizvodnji sladkorja, sira, sokov..), farmacevtska industrija (encimi se uporabljajo v sintezi zdravil, proizvodnji antibiotikov in pripravi cepiv), tekstilna industrija, proizvodnja biogoriv, kozmetična industrija in še druge panoge. Mikrobni encimi lahko na ekonomičen in okolju prijazen način delujejo kot biokatalizatorji za izvajanje reakcij v bioprocesih. Vsak živ organizem vsebuje biološko aktivne snovi, ki jih je mogoče ekstrahirati. Mikrobne celice proizvajajo intracelularne in ekstracelularne encime. Za sprostitev intracelularnih komponent iz celice je potrebno celično steno mikrobov razbiti. Za to smo uporabili postopek mehanske homogenizacije. Postopek homogeniziranja se običajno izvaja s pomočjo homogenizacijskih naprav, ki lahko delujejo s hidravličnim tlakom, ultrazvokom, visokim tlakom ali drugimi mehanskimi silami. V našem primeru bomo uporabili rotor-stator homogenizator, kjer vzorec potuje skozi ozek prostor med vrtečim rotorjem in statorjem, kar povzroči razbijanje delcev in razlitje celic v celično suspenzijo. Namen te diplomske naloge je bil ugotoviti kako čas homogenizacije vpliva na preživelost črnih kvasovk W.Ichthyophaga v celični suspenziji, preostalo aktivnost encimov (amilaza, β- glukozidaza, proteaza, celulaza) in preostalo koncentracijo proteinov. Celično suspenzijo smo homogenizirali v času od 0 – 90 min pri konstantni temperaturi 35 ºC. Rezultati so pokazali, da je preživelost W.Ichthyophaga s podaljševanjem časa homogenizacije upadala, preostala koncentracija proteinov pa je naraščala. Zaznali smo povečanje preostale aktivnosti encimov α-amilaze, celulaze in proteaze. Na preostalo aktivnost β-glukozidaze pa je imela homogenizacija negativen vpliv, saj smo dokazali takojšen upad preostale aktivnosti.In a world with a rapidly growing population, pollution, and the depletion of many natural resources, enzyme technology offers great potential for various industrial applications. Some areas where enzyme technology is used include, the food industry (enzymes are used to improve food production, such as in grain processing, sugar production, cheese making, and juice production), the pharmaceutical industry (enzymes are used in drug synthesis, antibiotic production, and vaccine preparation), the textile industry, biofuel production, the cosmetics industry, and other sectors. Microbial enzymes can act as biocatalysts in bioprocesses in an economical and environmentally friendly way. Every living organism contains biologically active substances that can be extracted. Microbial cells produce intracellular and extracellular enzymes. To release intracellular components from the cell, the microbial cell wall needs to be broken. For this, we used a mechanical homogenization process. The homogenization process is usually carried out using homogenization devices that operate with hydraulic pressure, ultrasound, high pressure, or other mechanical forces.
In our case, we used a rotor-stator homogenizer, where the sample travels through a narrow space between the rotating rotor and the stator, causing particle breakdown and cell disruption into a cell suspension. The purpose of this thesis was to determine how homogenization time affects the survival of black yeasts W. Ichthyophaga in the cell suspension, the residual enzyme activity (amylase, β-glucosidase, protease, cellulase), and the residual protein concentration. The cell suspension was homogenized for a duration of 0–90 minutes at a constant temperature of 35°C. The results showed that the survival rate of W. Ichthyophaga decreased with longer homogenization times, while the residual protein concentration increased. We observed an increase in the residual activity of the enzymes α-amylase, cellulase, and protease. However, homogenization had a negative impact on the residual activity of β-glucosidase, as we demonstrated an immediate decrease in residual activity
Introduction of the electronic consignment (e-CMR) in the transport company
Get PDFDigitalizacija postaja ključni element v logistiki, saj tehnologija omogoča hitrejše in učinkovitejše poslovanje. Transportna podjetja vse bolj prehajajo na digitalne rešitve, pri čemer klasični papirni tovorni list, ki označuje tovorni list v skladu s Konvencijo o pogodbi za mednarodni cestni prevoz blaga (angl. Convention on the Contract for the International Carriage of Goods by Roadv nadaljevanju: CMR), nadomeščajo z elektronskim tovornim listom (angl. Electronic CMR Consignment Note, v nadaljevanju: e-CMR). Uvedba e-CMR je pomembna, ker prinaša večjo preglednost in optimizacijo transportnih procesov, hkrati pa zmanjšuje okoljski vpliv z zmanjšanjem porabe papirja. V diplomskem delu bodo obravnavane organizacija transportne dokumentacije v transportnem podjetju in možnosti njenega izboljšanja z uvedbo e-CMR. Raziskan bo vpliv uvedbe e-CMR na poslovanje, pri čemer bo delo osredotočeno na prednosti in izzive digitalizacije pri upravljanju transportnih dokumentov ter analizirano, kako uvedba e-CMR vpliva na učinkovitost, stroške in sledljivost transportnih procesov. Poleg teoretičnega pregleda bo izveden intervju z zaposlenimi za oceno pripravljenosti podjetja na uvedbo e-CMR. Cilji diplomskega dela so ugotoviti, v kolikšni meri je transportno podjetje pripravljeno na optimizacijo poslovanja z uvedbo e-CMR. Poudarek je na poenostavitvi in avtomatizaciji logističnih procesov, odpravi stroškov, povezanih s papirnimi tovornimi listi, ter zmanjšanju uporabe papirja v korist varovanja okolja.Digitalization is a key element in logistics, enabling faster and more efficient operations. Transport companies are increasingly adopting digital solutions, replacing the traditional paper consignment note, which serves as a transport document in accordance with the Convention on the Contract for the International Carriage of Goods by Road (CMR), with an electronic consignment note (e-CMR). The introduction of e-CMR enhances transparency, optimizes transport processes, and reduces environmental impact by cutting paper use. The thesis will discuss the organization of transport documentation in a transport company and possibilities of improvement with introduction of e-CMR. Investigated will be the impact of introduction of e-CMR on business, focusing on advantages and challenges of digitization in management of transport documents and it will be analysed how introduction of e-CMR affects efficiency, costs and traceability of transport processes. A theoretical review will be complemented by employee interviews to assess the company’s readiness for e-CMR. The aim of the thesis is to find out the extent to which the transport company is ready to optimize its operations with introducing e-CMR. The focus is on simplifying and automating logistics, reducing costs linked to paper consignment notes, and minimizing paper use to benefit the environment
Working with families of children with special needs at home
Get PDFV magistrski nalogi smo preučevali vpliv zgodnje obravnave na domu pri družinah otrok s posebnimi potrebami. Cilj raziskave je bil ugotoviti, kako vključitev izvajalca zgodnje obravnave vpliva na delovanje otroka, staršev, sorojencev in družinsko dinamiko. Raziskava je temeljila na kvalitativnem pristopu. Izvedeni so bili polstrukturirani intervjuji s starši pred vpeljavo zgodnje obravnave in po njej ter intervju z izvajalko zgodnje obravnave. Zbrane podatke smo analizirali s tematsko analizo, pri čemer smo identificirali ključne spremembe v družinskem življenju po vključitvi strokovne pomoči. Rezultati raziskave kažejo, da je zgodnja obravnava na domu prispevala k izboljšanju otrokovega socialnega vedenja, prilagajanja na spremembe ter zmanjšanju vedenjskih izbruhov. Starši so pridobili večjo samozavest in kompetence pri vzgoji, poročali so o manj stresa in boljši organiziranosti družinskega življenja. Sorojenci so pokazali večjo vključenost, empatijo in občutek povezanosti. Ključne metode, ki so se izkazale za učinkovite, so bile uporaba vizualnih pripomočkov, jasna pravila, pozitivna okrepitev in senzorna regulacija. Raziskava prispeva k boljšemu razumevanju vloge zgodnje obravnave v podpori družinam otrok s posebnimi potrebami ter ponuja smernice za izvajalce in oblikovalce politik na področju zgodnje intervencije. Kljub omejitvam, kot sta majhen vzorec družin in subjektivna narava podatkov, raziskava odpira možnosti za nadaljnje preučevanje dolgoročnih učinkov zgodnje obravnave ter izboljšanje podpore sorojencem in staršem.This master\u27s thesis examines the impact of home-based early intervention on families of children with special needs. The aim of the research was to determine how the involvement of an early intervention provider affects the functioning of the child, parents, siblings, and overall family dynamics. The study was based on a qualitative approach. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with parents before and after the implementation of early intervention, as well as an interview with the early intervention provider. The collected data were analysed using thematic analysis, identifying key changes in family life following the introduction of professional support.
The research results indicate that home-based early intervention contributed to improvements in children\u27s social behaviour, adaptability to changes, and a reduction in behavioural outbursts. Parents gained greater confidence and competence in parenting, reporting reduced stress and better family organization. Siblings demonstrated increased involvement, empathy, and a sense of connection. The most effective methods included the use of visual aids, clear rules, positive reinforcement, and sensory regulation.
This study enhances the understanding of the role of early intervention in supporting families of children with special needs and provides guidelines for practitioners and policymakers in early intervention. Despite limitations such as a small sample size and the subjective nature of the data, the research opens avenues for further exploration of the long-term effects of early intervention and ways to improve support for siblings and parents
Supply chain efficiency analysis of Engrotuš d. o. o.
Get PDFAnaliza oskrbovalne verige podjetja Engrotuš d.o.o. je pokazala, da podjetje uspešno upravlja s procesi, vendar zaostaja na področju tehnoloških izboljšav, kar lahko vpliva na njegovo dolgoročno konkurenčnost. Najpomembnejši izzivi so na področju optimizacije transportnih poti, avtomatizacije skladišč, izboljšanja napovedovanja povpraševanja ter digitalizacije upravljanja zalog. Umetna inteligenca bi omogočala učinkovitejše delovanje celotne oskrbovalne verige, čeprav je celovita tehnološka prenova trenutno omejena zaradi strategije lastnika, ki je osredotočen na samo prodajo podjetja. Zato večjih kratkoročnih vlaganj v digitalizacijo ni pričakovati, kar pomeni, da bo treba rešitve uvajati postopoma in ciljno usmerjeno. Priporočamo uvedbo pragmatičnih tehnoloških izboljšav, ki lahko brez visokih investicijskih vložkov optimizirajo obstoječe procese. To vključuje digitalizacijo operacij v skladiščih, izboljšave na področju transporta in analitične sisteme na področju napovedovanja povpraševanja. Spremljanje konkurence ter postopna integracija stroškovno učinkovitih digitalnih rešitev bosta podjetju omogočila, da kljub omejenim investicijskim možnostim ohrani stabilnost poslovanja ter konkurenčnost na slovenskem trgu.The supply chain analysis of Engrotuš d.o.o. is showed that the company manages its processes successfully, but is lagging in the area of technological improvements, which may have an impact on its long-term competitiveness. The most important challenges are in the area of transport optimisation routes, warehouse automation, improving demand forecasting and digitalisation inventory management. Artificial intelligence would enable the entire supply chains. However, comprehensive technological renewal is currently limited due to the owner\u27s strategy, which is focused on selling the business itself. Therefore, no major short-term investment in digitisation is expected, which means that solutions will have to be introduced in a gradual and targeted manner. We recommend the introduction of pragmatic technological improvements that can be implemented without high investment optimise existing processes. This includes the digitisation of operations in warehouses, improvements in transport and analytical systems in the field of demand forecasting. Monitoring competition and progressive integration of cost-effective digital solutions will allow the company to continue to maintain business stability, and competitiveness on the Slovenian market
Vacuum casting of stellite alloy
Get PDFMagistrsko delo obravnava razvoj postopka izdelave stelitne zlitine v laboratorijskem okolju, ki se uporablja v zobni protetiki za kovinska ogrodja zobnih protez. Predstavljeni so postopki vakuumskega indukcijskega litja in termo-mehanske obdelave (visokotemperaturno homogenizacijsko žarjenje, mehko žarjenje in kovanje). Obrazložene so mehanske in fizikalne lastnosti ter mikrostruktura stelitnih zlitin v odvisnosti od pogojev, načina litja in termo-mehanske obdelave. Pojasnjena je prednost vakuumskega indukcijskega litja v kovinske kokile v primerjavi z litjem v enkratne peščene forme. Magistersko delo obravnava tudi okoljski vidik vakuumskega indukcijskega taljenja in ulivanje stelitnih zlitin v forme. S svetlobnim in vrstičnim elektronskim mikroskopom je bila v okviru raziskav opravljenih v tem magistrskem delu okarkterizirana mikrostruktura sletitne zlitine. Določene so bile tudi fizikalne in mehanske lastnosti te stelitne zlitine. V sklepnem delu smo dokazali, da je lahko z uporabo vakuumskega indukcijskega litja in naknadne termo-mehanske obdelave zmanjšana prisotnost livarskih napak. To so lunkerji, kristalne in blokovne izceje, razpoke, vključki, plinska in krčilna poroznost. Tako izdelamo stelitno zlitino, ki ustreza lastnostim, ki so za ta tip zlitin podane v standardu ASTM F75The master\u27s thesis examines the laboratory process of manufacturing a stellite alloy used in dental prosthetics for the metal frameworks of dental prostheses. The thesis presents vacuum induction casting and thermo-mechanical processing techniques, including high-temperature homogenisation annealing, soft annealing, and forging. It analyses the mechanical and physical properties, as well as the microstructure of stellite alloys, depending on the casting conditions and thermo-mechanical treatments. The thesis also explains the advantages of vacuum induction casting into metal moulds, compared to casting in single-use sand moulds. Additionally, the thesis considers the environmental aspects of vacuum induction melting and casting of stellite alloys.
As part of the research conducted in this master\u27s thesis, the microstructure of the stellite alloy was analysed using optical and line-scanned electron microscopy, and its physical and mechanical properties were determined. The conclusion demonstrates that the use of vacuum induction casting combined with subsequent thermo-mechanical processing can reduce the presence of casting defects, such as shrinkage cavities, dendritic and blocky segregations, cracks, inclusions, and gas or shrinkage porosity. This enables the production of a stellite alloy that meets the properties specified in the ASTM F75 standard
Gender composition at work and women\u27s career satisfaction
Get PDFDrawing from status characteristics theory, we develop a multilevel model to explain the relationships between gender composition (e.g., female-female supervisor-subordinate dyads, a female majority at the next higher level, and a female majority at the same job level) in the workplace and women\u27s career satisfaction. We hypothesise that working with a female supervisor and a female majority at the same level will be negatively related to women\u27s career satisfaction, while a female majority at the next higher level will be positively related to women\u27s career satisfaction. Moreover, we propose that formal societal (gender-equality) institutions and informal cultural (gender-egalitarian) values, each has a moderating effect on the impact of gender compositions on women\u27s career satisfaction. Our results from a multilevel analysis of 2291 women across 35 societies support the three hypothesised main effects. Whereas institutions that support gender equality weaken the positive effect of working with a female majority at the next higher level, they amplify the negative effect of a female majority at the same hierarchical level. Our findings highlight the complex and paradoxical nature of gender composition effects on women\u27s career satisfaction. We discuss the theoretical contributions of our findings and their implications for the diversity management practices of multinational enterprises
The Kindergarten Teacher\u27s Perception of Their Own Professional and Personal Development
Get PDFDiplomska naloga z naslovom Vzgojiteljevo dojemanje lastnega profesionalnega in osebnostnega razvoja je sestavljena iz teoretičnega in empiričnega dela. V teoretičnem delu smo opredelili pojem profesionalni razvoj vzgojitelja. Opisali smo faze in modele profesionalnega razvoja. Eden ključnih dejavnikov profesionalnega razvoja je tudi motivacija za delo, ki posledično izhaja iz osebnosti posameznika. Dejavniki osebnosti vplivajo na dober razvoj tako vzgojitelja kot tudi posameznika, le če delujejo skladno drug z drugim. Opredelili smo tudi pomembnost in prepletanje profesionalnega in osebnostnega razvoja vzgojitelja. V empiričnem delu diplomske naloge smo izvedli 30 intervjujev diplomiranih vzgojiteljic in vzgojiteljev z različnimi nazivi. S pomočjo zastavljenih vprašanj smo ugotovili, kaj si vzgojitelji predstavljajo pod pojmom profesionalni razvoj ter kaj prispeva k razvoju le tega. Poizvedeli smo tudi, kako strokovna izobraževanja vplivajo na osebnostni razvoj ter kakšna bi morala biti osebnost vzgojitelja predšolskih otrok. Pridobljene podatke smo ločili glede na nazive ter jih besedno interpretirali in analizirali.
Ugotovili smo, da se vsem intervjuvanim vzgojiteljem zdi profesionalni razvoj pomemben, da nanj najbolj vpliva motivacija, možnosti izobraževanja in delovno okolje. Menijo, da profesionalni razvoj dobro vpliva tudi na osebnostni razvoj vzgojitelja, ki bi po mnenju intervjuvancev moral biti samokritičen, čustveno inteligenten in razgledan.This thesis, titled The Kindergarten Teacher\u27s Perception of Their Own Professional and Personal Development, consists of both theoretical and empirical sections. In the theoretical part, we define the concept of professional development for kindergarten teachers and describe its stages and models. One of the key factors influencing professional development is motivation, which stems from an individual\u27s personality. Personality factors play a crucial role in the successful development of both the kindergarten teacher and the individual, but only if they work in harmony with one another. We also examine the importance and interplay between professional and personal development in kindergarten teachers. In the empirical section of the thesis, we conducted 30 interviews with qualified kindergarten teachers holding various professional titles. Through carefully designed questions, we explored how kindergarten teachers understand the concept of professional development and what factors contribute to its advancement. Additionally, we investigated how professional training influences personal development and what personal qualities a kindergarten teacher should possess. The collected data were categorised according to professional titles, and we provided a detailed analysis and interpretation.
We found that all interviewed kindergarten teachers consider professional development to be highly important. They believe that the most significant factors influencing it are motivation, opportunities for education, and the work environment. Moreover, they agree that professional development positively impacts personal growth, with kindergarten teachers believing that a kindergarten teacher should be self-critical, emotionally intelligent, and well-rounded
Transformation of the city wardens of the municipality of ljubljana into a city police force
Get PDFPreoblikovanje Mestnega redarstva Mestne občine Ljubljana (MR MOL) v Mestno policijo se pojavlja kot pomembna tema v kontekstu zagotavljanja splošne ravni varnosti in izboljšanja kakovosti življenja prebivalcev samega mesta. Mestno redarstvo se že danes sooča z mnogimi izzivi na področju varnosti, hkrati pa predstavlja pomemben varnostni subjekt na lokalni ravni. Glavni cilj preoblikovanja v Mestno policijo je povečati pooblastila, razširiti pristojnosti ter izboljšati organizacijsko učinkovitost redarstva, s čimer bi MR MOL postala še bolj aktiven partner pri vzdrževanju ali dvigu ravni splošne varnosti. Za preoblikovanje je že delno zagotovljena pravna podlaga v Zakonu o glavnem mestu, ki opredeljuje poseben status Ljubljane kot glavnega mesta Republike Slovenije in ki v svojih določbah tudi omogoča način financiranja novonastale službe. Drugi in glavni korak predstavlja širitev zakonodaje predvsem z razširitvijo določb Zakona o občinskem redarstvu ali uvedbo popolnoma novega zakona z namenom uvedbe obsežnejših pristojnosti in pooblastil bodoči Mestni policiji. Organizacijsko prestrukturiranje bi zahtevalo uvedbo novih oddelkov z jasno opredeljenimi nalogami, kot so preiskovanje kaznivih dejanj, krvnih deliktovin drugih specializiranih nalog. Analiza primerjalnih podatkov kaže, da MR MOL že danes izvaja več ukrepov po Zakonu o javnem redu in miru v primerjavi z drugimi medobčinskimi redarstvi, kljub omejenim kadrovskim virom. PU Ljubljana, ki ima precej več zaposlenih in se ukvarja z zahtevnejšimi varnostnimi izzivi nakazuje na dejstvo, da MR MOL kljub manjši kadrovski kapaciteti uspešno pokriva pomemben del nalog zadanih v zakonodaji. Podpora preoblikovanju v Mestno policijo je bila izražena preko ankete izvedene med zaposlenimi v MR MOL, katere rezultati kažejo na to, da večina anketiranih podpira spremembo organizacijske strukture. Kljub temu so zaposleni izrazili zadržke glede prevzemanja nekaterih zahtevnejših nalog, kot so preiskovanje krvnih in spolnih deliktov ter premoženjskih kaznivih dejanj. Preoblikovanje kot takšno bi posledično zahtevalo obsežno izobraževanje in usposabljanje, z namenom pridobitve potrebnih znanj in spretnosti za učinkovito izvajanje nalog nove organizacije. Mestna policija bi lahko z izboljšano organizacijsko strukturo, širšimi pooblastili ter večjo avtonomijo igrala ključno vlogo pri zagotavljanju varnosti v Ljubljani. Takšno preoblikovanje bi prineslo še globjo povezanost z lokalno skupnostjo, ki jo Mestno redarstvo že zdaj uživa med prebivalci ter boljšo odzivnost na varnostne izzive in s tem tudi povečanje splošnega občutka varnosti med prebivalci prestolnice.The transformation of the Municipal wardens of the City of Ljubljana (MR MOL) into a City Police Force is emerging as an important topic in the context of ensuring the general level of security and improving the quality of life of the city\u27s residents. The Municipal wardens are already facing many challenges in the field of security today and are an important security entity at the local level. The main goal of transforming it into a City Police Force is to increase powers, expand jurisdictions and improve the organizational efficiency of the Municipal wardens making MR MOL an even more active partner in maintaining or raising the general level of security. For this transformation a legal basis is partially provided by the Zakon o glavnem mestu, which defines the special status of Ljubljana as the capital of the Republic of Slovenia and includes provisions that allow the financing of the newly established service. The second and main step is the expansion of legislation, primarily by amending the provisions of the Zakon o občinskem redarstvu or introducing an entirely new law to introduce broader powers and responsibilities for the future City Police. Organizational restructuring would require the establishment of new departments with clearly defined tasks, such as investigating criminal offenses, violent crimes and other specialized tasks. An analysis of comparative data shows that MR MOL already conducts more interventions under the Zakon o javnem redu compared to other municipal warden services, despite limited staffing resources. The Police of Ljubljana (PU Ljubljana), which has significantly more staff and deals with more complex security challenges indicates that MR MOL, despite its smaller staffing capacity, effectively covers an important part of the tasks assigned by legislation. Support for the transformation into a City Police Force was expressed through a survey conducted among MR MOL employees, the results of which show that most respondents support the change in organizational structure. However employees have expressed reservations about taking on some more challenging tasks, such as investigating violent and sexual crimes and property crimes. Consequently the transformation would require extensive education and training to acquire the necessary knowledge and skills to effectively carry out the tasks of the new organization. The City Police could, with an improved organizational structure, broader powers and greater autonomy play a key role in ensuring safety in Ljubljana. Such a transformation would bring even deeper ties with the local community, which the Municipal wardens already enjoy among residents and better responsiveness to security challenges, thereby increasing the overall sense of security among the city\u27s residents
