The study is guided by constructivist principles and employs the current Education 2.0...

In the pursuit of this aim, the extension of access to primary education was achieved relatively successfully, given that it reached a net rate of school coverage of almost 100 per cent.

This paper proposes a hybrid approach combining an Extreme Learning Machine and a Genetic Algorithm to predict the short-term streamflow at the Cahora Bassa dam, the largest hydroelectric power plant in southern Africa. To predict the streamflows seven days ahead, the model uses as input the past river flows, information from humidity, rainfall, and evaporation measures from the lake upstream of the dam. The choice of the Extreme Learning Machine’s internal parameters, crucial for excellent...

The purpose of conducting this study was to analyze how forced expropriations and the demolitions of informal settlements could fall under the umbrella of “climate change adaptation” measures. Using an actor-network lens and translation theory, these translations are systematically broken down between three distinct levels: global discourse, national discourse, and implementation. As the idea of adaptation is translated between different actors and networks, it is given context-specific...
