Ambassatna Nadif: An experimental household-rubbish collection project
No full textIn 1989 Oxfam approached the town council of N'Djamena, the capital of Chad, Africa, and set up a joint project to encourage community participation in improving sanitary conditions in Ambassatna. The author highlights the main problems and lessons to be learned from the project, three years into it, including issues around neglecting the role of women and their involvement in local committee structures. The nature of voluntary work in an urban environment is discussed in relation to the impact of the project, which is felt by the community to be a success but is a limited success by Oxfam's criteria
STRATEGI LAYANAN BIMBINGAN DAN KONSELING DALAM MENGHADAPI ERA REVOLUSI INDUSTRI 4.0 BAGI GENERASI Z
No full textPenelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui apakah perlu adanya strategi yang signifikan untuk menyelesaikan permasalahan yang dialami para generasi Z di era revolusi industri. Metode yang digunakan adalah Literatur Review dengan melakukan evaluasi terhadap kualitas dan temuan baru dari karya ilmiah. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan Era revolusi industri 4.0 banyak membawa perubahan termasuk di dunia pendidikan dimana dunia pendidikan dituntut untuk mengikuti perkembangan teknologi dan memanfaatkan teknologi informasi dan komunikasi sebagai fasilitas untuk memperlancar proses pembelajaran. Dampak lainnya juga dirasakan oleh generasi z dimana generasi ini adalah generasi yang tidak terlepas dari teknologi saat masih kecil yang membuat remaja kecanduan teknologi termasuk kecanduan media sosial. Media sosial sendiri bila digunakan dengan baik maka akan berdampak positif, tapi bila digunakan dengan secara tidak sehat maka akan berdampak negatif terutama untuk kesehatan mental
STABILIZING MEANING IN VERTICAL COMMUNICATION: CROSS GENERATIONAL LEADERSHIP PRACTICES IN A MULTINATIONAL ORGANIZATION
No full textThis study examines how leaders across generations construct and sustain clarity in vertical communication within a fast-moving multinational organization. Drawing on Path Goal Theory, Leader Member Exchange, and communication clarity perspectives, this research employs a qualitative single case study design in a Korean multinational operating in Indonesia’s competitive tobacco industry. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with ten leaders across hierarchical levels, including head division, regional managers, area managers, and supervisors representing Generations X, Y, and Z, supported by participant observation and document analysis. The findings show that communication effectiveness is shaped less by generational category and more by leaders’ ability to stabilize meaning throughout the vertical communication chain. Generation X leaders tend to filter and rationalize strategic messages before cascading them, Generation Y leaders translate targets into structured operational actions through ongoing monitoring, and Generation Z leaders emphasize concise, data-based communication supported by rapid clarification through digital channels. Across generations, communication clarity is strengthened through meaning translation, prioritization during policy change, iterative verification practices, and appropriate media selection, particularly the use of face-to-face interaction for strategic alignment. This study introduces the concept of the information flow manager as a leadership function that filters, simplifies, and stabilizes communication before it reaches operational teams. The findings extend existing communication and leadership theories by positioning clarity as an adaptive and relational process rather than a static message attribute. Practically, organizations can improve execution reliability by strengthening communication transparency, ensuring documentation continuity during leadership transitions, and fostering psychological safety that supports upward clarification in multigenerational environments
REFORMULASI FIKIH MUAMALAH TERHADAP PRAKTIK BARTER (Melihat Fenomena Sistem Barter Exposure Pada Sosial Media)
No full textAbstrak
Fenomena barter with exposure pada sosial media menggambarkan bahwa kegiatan ekonomi sangat dipengaruhi oleh kemajuan zaman, dengan pesatnya teknologi. Perkembangan ekonomi mendorong fikih muamalah untuk bisa me-reformulasi konsep-konsep klasik yang tidak relevan, agar menyesuaikan diri, ikut berpartisipasi, dan terlibat dalam kemajuan teknologi. Oleh sebab itu, ijtihad dalam hal ini menjadi sebuah kebutuhan yang terus didorong baik, khususnya pada fenomena barter with exposure. Metode penelitian yang digunakan penulis termasuk dalam penelitian hukum kepustakaan. Dengan pendekatan konsep, pendekatan konseptual bertujuan untuk menganalisis bahan-bahan hukum sedemikian rupa sehingga dapat diketahui makna-makna yang terkandung dalam istilah-istilah hukum. Penelitian menunjukan bahwa reformulasi fikih muamalah terhadap barter value dalam bentuk exposure tidak bertentangan dengan Islam berdasarkan prinsip kebolehan dan kemaslahatan, walaupun dalam konsep fikih muamalah klasik objek barter itu harus setara, sepadan. Hal itu disebabkan oleh keluasan, kedinamisan dan ketidakkauan dari konsep fikih muamalah, sehingga memberikan kemudahan transaksi, sesuai dengan kebutuhan masyarakat.

Abstract
The phenomenon of barter with exposure to social media illustrates that economic activities are greatly influenced by the progress of the times, with the rapid development of technology. Economic developments encourage muamalah jurisprudence to be able to reformulate irrelevant classical concepts, adapt, participate, and be involved in technological progress. Therefore, ijtihad in this case becomes a need that continues to be encouraged, especially in the phenomenon of barter with exposure. The research method used by the author is included in the literature on legal research. With a conceptual approach, the conceptual approach is intended to analyze legal materials so that the meaning contained in legal terms can be known. Research shows that the reformulation of muamalah fiqh on barter value in the form of exposure does not conflict with Islam based on the principle of permissibility and benefit, although in the concept of classical muamalah fiqh the barter object must be equal, and equivalent. This is due to the breadth, dynamism, and immutability of the muamalah fiqh concept, thus providing ease of transactions, according to the needs of the community.

Ptchd1 deficiency induces excitatory synaptic and cognitive dysfunctions in mouse
No full textSynapse development and neuronal activity represent fundamental processes for the establishment of cognitive function. Structural organization as well as signalling pathways from receptor stimulation to gene expression regulation are mediated by synaptic activity and misregulated in neurodevelopmental disorders such as autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and intellectual disability (ID). Deleterious mutations in the PTCHD1 (Patched domain containing 1) gene have been described in male patients with X-linked ID and/or ASD. The structure of PTCHD1 protein is similar to the Patched (PTCH1) receptor; however, the cellular mechanisms and pathways associated with PTCHD1 in the developing brain are poorly determined. Here we show that PTCHD1 displays a C-terminal PDZ-binding motif that binds to the postsynaptic proteins PSD95 and SAP102. We also report that PTCHD1 is unable to rescue the canonical sonic hedgehog (SHH) pathway in cells depleted of PTCH1, suggesting that both proteins are involved in distinct cellular signalling pathways. We find that Ptchd1 deficiency in male mice (Ptchd1(-/y)) induces global changes in synaptic gene expression, affects the expression of the immediate-early expression genes Egr1 and Npas4 and finally impairs excitatory synaptic structure and neuronal excitatory activity in the hippocampus, leading to cognitive dysfunction, motor disabilities and hyperactivity. Thus our results support that PTCHD1 deficiency induces a neurodevelopmental disorder causing excitatory synaptic dysfunction
