1) Students at Jigme Losel Primary School in Bhutan were experiencing health issues like rashes and diarrhea. Handwashing practices and facilities were insufficient.
2) The school emphasized the importance of handwashing with soap through a UNICEF program. However, with only one tap for 850 students, handwashing during lunch breaks was challenging.
3) Students came up with the idea of "Tippy Taps," reusable handwashing stations made from recycled materials. These improved access to handwashing and health outcomes for students. The school has since promoted handwashing education and support for other schools.

E.F. Schumacher was President of the Soil Association from 1970–77. During this time he wrote an article for the Association’s Living Earth magazine, in which he passionately made the case for the practical application of economic and organic thinking into practice and lived experience. ‘Let us not defend a type of pristine virginity’, he noted in 1971, ‘to remain a little, esoteric splinter group, at a time when the whole world is crying out for precisely the kind of thinking the Soil Association has been engaged in for the past 25 years’.
It is in this spirit that the Food For Life Partnership was founded by the SA 10 years ago, a tiny pilot in 5 schools to see whether engaging children, their teachers and their school cooks in growing organic produce, visiting organic farms, and learning to prepare wonderful healthy food could transform their well being and sense of connecting with nature. From this ‘acorn’ a major initiative has developed, with over 5000 schools in England now enrolled…some 20% of our school children. The results have been tremendous, and the momentum continues.
Children spend a lot of time in school. We can help ensure
that while they’re there, they can safely drink water,
wash their hands, and have comfortable, clean sanitation
facilities. Children who learn good habits at school take
the knowledge home, so our investments have an impact
on the broader community. Learn how your club can get
involved in WASH-in-Schools initiatives by working
with schools, governments, NGOs, and partner clubs, and
hear suggestions for improving community engagement.

Blind Verification of Digital Image Originality: A Statistical ApproachLar21
This paper presents a statistical approach to handle information noise in databases consisting of unguaranteed images. In other words, this approach can identify which images fingerprints belong to a given device, and which images fingerprints has been generated by a software, i.e., whether the image was modified by a software. Accordingly, this approach is used to determine which images are original which it is a critical task for forensics methods that requires large-scale collections of reliable data.

Os smartphones representam mais que uma ferramenta usada ocasionalmente, e atualmente coexistem com seus usuários durante todo o dia. Esses dispositivos são equipados com diversos tipos de sensores que provêm dados contínuos sobre diversos aspectos de contexto do usuário e de seu ambiente, como localização, movimento, interações sociais, estado emocional, entre outros. O reconhecimento de atividades físicas utilizando smartphone pode auxiliar no monitoramento de pacientes em seu domicilio, detectando quedas e comportamento sedentários. Contudo, a maioria dos trabalhos existentes exigem que a pessoa fixe o smartphone em uma parte espeficida do corpo (e.g., peito). Nesse trabalho coletou- se os dados dos sensores de movimento do smartphone sem necessitar que fixe-o a uma posição especifica do corpo. O algoritmo de classificação Random Forest alcançou 99% na classificação das atividades físicas. Portanto, a principal contribuição é um reconhecedor de atividades físicas com otima acurácia mesmo quando o smartphone não se encontra fixado.

Over the past decade, the child-friendly schools (CFS) model has emerged as UNICEF’s signature means to advocate for and promote quality education for every girl and boy. Child-friendly schools enable all children to achieve their full potential. As a part of a Global Capacity Development Programme on CFS, UNICEF has developed the Child Friendly Schools Manual, a reference document and practical guidebook to help countries implement CFS models appropriate to their specific circumstances.
Worldwide, every year nearly 11 million children die before reaching their fifth birthday, most from preventable causes that is approximately 30,000 children per day

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Soap – A Critical Friend InHandwashing
Feel:
The use of Soap is a must while washing hands. In the beginning,the teachers observed many
students having rashes on faces or fingers. There were many pre-primary (class PP-I) students
suffering from diarrhoea and incidences of defecating in the classes. The performance and
attendance of the students were all time low. There was no improvement in the health of the
students even after taking preventive measures like insisting on drinking boiled water, clipping
nails on time, proper toilet habits etc.
The introduction of Water Sanitation and Hygiene programme (WASH) through the celebration
of Global Handwashing Day under UNICEF in 2008 was an eye opener for most of us. Since
then, the school emphasised on the importance of the use of soap in the handwashing process.
2. 2
The use of soap in handwashing however did not serve the purposes of increasing the academic
performance and the attendance of our children. The findings of our second observation was that
children complained of not having enough time to wash hands as instructed during the 40 mins
lunch break since there is only one tap for 850 students.
Imagine:
Lack of handwashing facilities remained still a challenge. Some students came up with ideas of
reusing materials in designing taps to reachout to all the students. Since the school was already in
the process of learning the 6Rs (reuse, refuse, replace, reduce, recycle and re-educating)through
Waste Management programme, the ideas of designing the taps visualized.
3. 3
Do:
The school took active part in promoting the WASH programme in the capital city through Street
Play, poster designing, and art work. Many students take part in Global Handwashing Day
celebration and have been winning the competitions so far. In doing so the students came up with
the idea of designing Tippy Taps reaching every single child of the school. The students drew
and painted their Tippy Taps with traditional Bhutanese art. The attractive art work on the Tippy
Taps strengthened the handwashingprogramme as a daily ritual and developed the sense of
ownership.
4. 4
Students take turns to bring soap and fill their Tippy Taps every morning. Now the Tippy Taps
are queued in front of their classes with enough soaps. Later to emphasize the right ways of
handwashing using soap, the class captains volunteered to keep a record on daily basis.
The students became the change agent in spreading the importance of handwashing with soap
even at home. The agent increased the donation of soaps from the parents and the community.
The health and hygiene of the students drastically improved and the school was selected as the
Focal School for Wash programme by the UNICEF at the City Level. Since then the students and
teachers have been actively involved in creating awareness.The WASH focal teacher was
selected to facilitate the programme to other districts schools. She also shared the good practices
of the school to other schools in the country.
5. 5
Share:
The students then came to know how some of the remote schools do not have enough soaps and
taps through the WASH focal teacher. In 2012, the students under the guidance of the focal
teacher formed a group to collect soaps for the sister schools.
Ourpartnership with Design for Change (DFC) gave us better ideas to reach out to the remote
schools. Now the DFC group is well ahead with the plan and is focused on the project. The group
has already sent two cartons of soaps each to two remote schools.
At the moment the group is working on sustainability of the project as the SOAP is a CRITICAL
FRIEND in HANDWASHING whether you are an adult, a kid or a teen.
