https://ojs.lib.uom.gr/index.php/seeje/article/view/9854
<p>Entrepreneurship education faces several challenges related to pedagogicaldidactic principles and methodologies adopted in delivering entrepreneurial <br>learning. More than half of EU member states have limited or no guidelines for <br>entrepreneurship teaching, while the training of teachers and trainers emerges <br>as an imperative need. Hence, the present manuscript attempts to discuss the <br>pedagogical theories and principles based on which the InnoGFEED project was <br>developed. The authors discuss the rationale, objectives and expected impact in <br>relation to policy conclusions and recommendations, contributing to the broader <br>dialogue on pedagogical and methodological considerations that need to be taken <br>into account regarding entrepreneurship education.</p>Katerina SarriNikolaos MouratoglouStavroula Laspita

https://ojs.lib.uom.gr/index.php/seeje/article/view/9855
<p>This study examines how women’s participation in multiple income-generating <br>activities influence their decision-making power; it is based on in-depth <br>interviews of 366 rural women in Ogun State, Nigeria. Women’s bargaining power <br>was estimated using Principal Component Analysis, and the Herfindahl index was <br>used to estimate their income diversification. Results found that women were <br>better off than men in two decision-making domains, food purchases, and harvest <br>use. Farm income explained 54.4% of women’s income in total household income. <br>70.3% of women have low bargaining power. Their participation in multiple <br>income portfolios results in higher level of bargaining power.</p>Chioma Patricia AdekunleTolulope Olayemi OyekaleEsther Toluwatope TolorunjuSolomon Oladele OladejiAdeleke Sabitu Coster

https://ojs.lib.uom.gr/index.php/seeje/article/view/9856
<p>This study investigates persistence in the liner shipping connectivity index for 16 <br>countries, namely, the G7, BRICS, and MINT countries from 2006Q1 to 2021Q1. Both <br>the autoregressive and fractional integration methods are used for the analysis <br>of break-adjusted and non-break-adjusted series. Findings from the study show <br>that the liner shipping connectivity index (LSCI) for more countries in the G7 <br>economic group has lower persistence than for countries in the other economic <br>groups – MINT and BRICS – whether the series is adjusted for a structural break <br>or not, thus pointing to a possible quick recovery from a shock than elsewhere. <br>This shows that any disruption to global trade, as proxied by LSCI, will be suffered <br>more by developing countries than developed ones.</p>Emeka Okoro Akpa

https://ojs.lib.uom.gr/index.php/seeje/article/view/9857
<p>The study examined the effect of health aid on HIV prevalence in sub-Saharan Africa <br>(SSA) using data on 46 countries from 2000-2019 analysed with system-GMM due to <br>its appropriateness. Results confirmed persistence in HIV prevalence and showed <br>that health aid significantly reduced HIV prevalence in SSA. Furthermore, domestic <br>health expenditure, education and government effectiveness significantly reduced <br>the scourge in SSA. All post-estimation diagnoses indicated that the estimated <br>model was valid and robust. Increased domestic health expenditure to complement <br>health aid, determination to encourage school enrolment and efforts to improve <br>government service delivery, especially in the health sector, are recommended.</p>Isiaq O.
