Renewable energy on the high seas – science-informed and indigenous knowledge-based recommendations for regulatory and governance challenges

The high seas are those marine areas under no State's jurisdiction. So far, all marine renewable energy (RE) activity is being conducted under State's jurisdiction. However, recent advances in technology are raising the prospect of carrying out RE activity on the high seas. Currently, only seabed mining activities in the Area have been regulated. The Area is the seabed and ocean floor beyond the limits of State's jurisdiction. From the legal viewpoint, the main gap is a lack of an international regulatory framework, informed by participatory mechanisms and supported by scientific evidence, for RE activities on the high seas, especially regarding their environmental and social impacts. 
The primary project objective (O) is to provide the scientific community and policymakers with science-informed and indigenous knowledge-based recommendations in support of the development of  RE regulation on the high seas. 
Two specific Os are set to complement the primary O, namely:
O1 To advance the use of systematic consultation processes that facilitates research at the crossroads of marine sciences and law. 
O2 To advance critical knowledge and understanding of environmental pressing issues comparable to the regulation of RE on the high seas, such as deep-sea mining in the Area.
A multistep innovative methodology will be adopted, by integrating marine scientific knowledge, consultative processes, and advanced critical research in the subject matter. A case study (interdisciplinary and participatory) involving marine scientists, indigenous and coastal communities and policy makers will be conducted onboard the Research Vessel KronPrins Haakon at the beginning of the project. The case study outcomes will be analysed through critical legal analysis to build a knowledge base for policy recommendations. 
The project will advance the PI’s career in an international research environment, allowing her to generate independent, high-quality, and reproducible results.




Optimization of Free Space Optical Communication Link based Drones for Search and Rescue Operations in the Arctic Region

The Arctic region is witnessing more frequent shipping accidents than ever which require accurate search and rescue operations. The existing communication systems use drones with radio frequency (RF) technology, which has limited bandwidth and cannot offer 4G/5G connectivity due to harsh weather constraints. It further limits the capacity of drones and affects the resolution of images and videos. The current research proposes to design free space optical communication (FSOC) link-based drones that can enhance connectivity between multiple drones and rescue ships as well as the capacity of drones to produce high resolution images and videos. The proposed FSOC-based drones can provide highspeed connectivity than the existing RF technology. The research will collect atmospheric turbulences data from the Arctic region and use it for designing the FSOC link. Furthermore, to enhance the capacity of FSOC-based drones, the research will design advanced multiplexing schemes (Mode Division Multiplexing and Orthogonal Code Division Multiple Access) and to ensure link stability, omnidirectional receiver will be designed. The research will further evaluate the performance of proposed FSOC link under the impact of various atmospheric turbulences. The expected outcomes of this research will lead to the optimisation of FSOC-based drones in expanding search areas and improving communication systems for SAR operations in the Arctic region.

Evaluation of thermohydraulic characteristic of printed circuit heat exchangers in pseudocritical region for supercritical CO2 cycle

Currently, 28.2% of the total EU-28 greenhouse gas emissions come from the power sector, a large contributor to greenhouse gas emissions. Consequently, the emphasis of the research in power generation has swung towards assessing highly efficient and greener power cycles. In this reference, the novel supercritical carbon dioxide Brayton cycle (sCO2-BC) is an ideal choice that outstrips other formally well-known power cycles (Brayton & Rankine cycles). In sCO2-BC, the role of the pre-cooler is critical. It serves as a sink to the power cycle and regulates the conditions at the compressor's inlet. The compressor's inlet temperature is intended to be maintained close to the critical temperature of carbon dioxide (CO2) to achieve greater cycle efficiencies. However, exceptionally higher values of the specific heat capacity of CO2 near its critical point (up to 40 times higher than water) require exceedingly high water flow rates on the cold side to achieve the desired exit temperatures of CO2. Consequently, the pre-cooler's pumping power requirements become high enough to deteriorate the cycle's performance. This problem can only be mitigated by exploring new channel geometries with enhanced thermohydraulic characteristics. Therefore, the proposed study plan to characterize the complex thermohydraulic characteristics in the pseudocritical region of CO2 using a multifaceted technique that includes, experimental, numerical, and machine learning techniques. The proposed work will provide a step forward to the success of sCO2-BC technologies that, in turn, will facilitate its integration with the green energy resources (generation-IV nuclear reactors and solar concentrated plants), helping to meet the EU's 2030 climate and energy framework goals of achieving at least 32% share for renewable energy.

Bilberry Ecology and the Regeneration of forest Ecosystem Functioning

Human impacts such as clearcut harvesting have left forests bereft of the organisms that underpin their functioning. The decline of key plant species has reduced the capacity of forests to store carbon (C) and provide ecosystem services to the people of Europe. The regeneration of forest ecosystem functioning requires a deeper understanding of how the traits of its species can be linked to ecosystem processes. The BEREFT project aims to elucidate how the plant traits of bilberry, Vaccinium myrtillus, modulate the dynamics of C and nitrogen (N) within the boreal forest. The project combines advances in chemical ecology with an innovative experimental design situated in Norway pairing experimental plots in formerly clearcut forest plantations with those from near-natural forests. I will collect a comprehensive set of bilberry's chemical traits and test both in-situ and in-vitro experiments to determine the underlying mechanism linking bilberry traits to C and N dynamics. The project goes beyond the state-of-the-art in applying novel methods from chemical ecology to measure bilberry's traits and uses a creative design to link those traits to ecosystem functioning. Through the scope of traits measured and the innovation in experimental design pairing clearcut forests with near-natural forests, this project will significantly advance our knowledge of the ecology of Europe's forest ecosystems. I will receive training in chemical ecology to advance my career as an expert in data generation and exchange with the host my knowledge on long-term ecological experimentation and ecosystem functioning. The project will disseminate deliverables in trait data packages, an open-source chemical ecology pipeline, and a robust measure of the effect size of bilberry's impact on C and N in the boreal forest. Knowledge of bilberry's role in the forest C cycle can be exploited by forestry managers in efforts to maximize C storage to meet the EU's goal of carbon neutrality.

EOSC Beyond: advancing innovation and collaboration for research

EOSC Beyond overall objective is to advance Open Science and innovation in research in the context of the European Open Science Cloud (EOSC) by providing new EOSC Core capabilities allowing scientific applications to find, compose and access multiple Open Science resources and offer them as integrated capabilities to researchers. To do so, EOSC Beyond supports a new concept of EOSC: a federated and integrated network of Nodes operated at different levels, national, regional, international and thematic, to serve the specific scientific missions of their stakeholders. Further specific objectives of the project are to accelerate ‘time to product’ of new scientific applications with software adapters, enable Open Science with machine composability and dynamic deployment of shared resources, support innovation in EOSC with a testing and integration environment, and align the EOSC Core architecture and specifications to integrate with European dataspaces. The project extends the state of the art of the EOSC Core and adopts a co-design methodology, including requirements elicitation, software development and validation in collaboration with different use cases from EOSC national and regional initiatives (e-Infra CZ, Czechia, NFDI, Germany, and NI4OS, South East Europe region), thematic research infrastructures from Social Sciences and Humanities (CESSDA), Life Sciences (CNB-CSIC and Instruct-ERIC), Environmental Science (ENES and LifeWatch), and Health and Food (METROFood-RI). EOSC Beyond builds on the capacities of prospective EOSC Nodes and partners with multi-annual experience in developing solutions for large-scale federated digital infrastructures and aligns with the technical architecture and requirements of data spaces from different business sectors. Ultimately, EOSC Beyond supports Open Science in modern, data-intensive, and multidisciplinary research, facilitating resource discovery, access, and reuse across scientific communities, organisations, and countries.


CULTUral heritage in RurAL remote areas for creative tourism and sustainabilITY

The main objective of the project is to contribute to the promotion of cultural and creative tourism activities, considering the different capacities, resources, and specificities (material, creative, human...) of the territories, as a mean to help with the sustainable development of peripheral rural areas, favoring job creation and population settlement. For this, the potential of its cultural heritage will be researched, taking into account both the artisan material culture (techniques, materials, patterns and decorative elements), as well as the intangible culture (music, oral knowledge and culinary traditions) as a resource.
 
To promote non-seasonal tourism as a form of sustainable development with a stable population settlement we are going to research the crafts linked to the territory and their implications, but we will also carry out a documentation of the productive processes. First and foremost, we are going to cater to the necessities of the local communities and pay attention to aspects related to societal groups at risk of exclusion, such as women, the elderly and the youth.

All this will be developed from a multidisciplinary perspective, for which we will count on the various teams —most of them linked to different countries— that will be part of the consortium. Each of these partners will contribute to the development, as well as to the final result of the project through input directly related to their area of ??expertise: for example, among the collaborators we have intellectual teams specialized in the digitalization of heritage, research, or communication and dissemination, as well as as various institutions that will act as a testing ground for the more practical parts of the proposal. However, if something will characterize our work, it will be the constant collaboration between all parties, as well as the exchange of advice and experiences that will help to enrich collective knowledge and guarantee optimal results.

AQUASERV – RESEARCH INFRASTRUCTURE SERVICES FOR SUSTAINABLE AQUACULTURE, FISHERIES AND THE BLUE ECONOMY

The overarching objectives of AQUASERV are to bring together, enhance, integrate and customise RI capacities (including facilities, instruments and expertise) and through the provision of transnational access (on-site or remote) and/or virtual access, to significantly further scientific advance and promote and facilitate the implementation of European Common Fisheries Policy, the Farm to Fork Strategy, the Sustainable Blue Economy and the European Green Deal. 

AQUASERV will achieve these objectives by offering scientists from academia and business remote and on-site transnational (TA) and virtual (VA) access to an advanced set of European research infrastructures and its nodes related to research and management of marine and freshwater biological resources, food and biotechnology. These include the European Marine Biological Resource Centre ERIC (EMBRC), the Analysis and Experimentation on Ecosystems ERIC, The Aquaculture for Excellence for Aquaculture in Fish (Aquaexcel), and the Infrastructure for Promoting Metrology in Food and Nutrition (METROFOOD), as well as the International Council for Exploration of the Sea, both a service provider and stakeholder. It also includes the Research Infrastructure for Science and Innovation Policy Studies (RISIS) to bring contributions from the social sciences and to bring results nearer to policy makers ensuring societal impact. 

To enhance, integrate and customise RI capacities, collaboration between partners and new pipelines to meet the objectives of the project will be developed during the first 3 years and will make available  to users.  To ensure these capacities will not be lost, a sustainability work package involving stakeholders will address the project legacy.  

To maximize impact, AQUASERV will build a communication network among the partnership and develop a dissemination and outreach programme. Furthermore, an advanced training programme will be developed to capture future users and will be updated during the p

Harmonization of Advanced Materials Ecosystems serving strategic Innovation Markets to pave the way to a Digital Materials & Product Passport

The overarching objective of DigiPass is to enhance the digital maturity of the European communities that develop materials and intermediate products. The project will develop recommendations and clear routes toward digitalized circular business models. The overarching key result of DigiPass is to create a sustainable platform which includes support for Digital Materials & Product Passport and for collaborative innovation-by-design processes in a circular economy served by advanced materials. A business model for operating such a platform completes the overarching objective.
DigiPass is harmonizing and synergizing collected materials data sources and digital infrastructures. This will enable interoperability of data exchange, and standardization of advanced materials knowledge representation at all maturity levels. Accelerating the design, development, and production of advanced, safe, and sustainable chemicals and materials, as they are necessary for innovative products, calls for a collaborative approach involving different stakeholders to support durability, repair and overhaul, reuse, and recyclability of products. DigiPass project impacts all materials development communities over the whole circular value chain. 


Integrated Research Infrastructure Services for Climate Change risks

Adaptation to climate change requires in-depth understanding of climate change driven risks, including their determinants (hazards, exposure and vulnerabilities) and impacts to human, production and natural systems. Integrated Research Infrastructure Services for Climate Change Risks (IRISCC) is a consortium of diverse and complementary leading research infrastructures (RIs) covering disciplines from natural sciences to social sciences, across different domains and sectors. IRISCC provides scientific and knowledge services to foster cutting-edge research and evidence-based policymaking to improve Europe's resilience to climate change. IRISCC ensures a “one-stop-shop” for various user communities on climate change risk related RI services by setting up a dedicated Catalogue of services and related access management system both for granting transnational (onsite and remote) and offering virtual access. The Catalogue of services will be built through three consecutive releases, each delivering increasingly integrated services to its user communities. The IRISCC service integration will include Service Design Labs employing co-design and transdisciplinary action, and Service Demonstrators benchmarking the integrated cross-RI services. In addition to services aimed towards the scientific community, IRISCC will offer knowledge services aimed towards policymakers and other stakeholders. This is done together with risk management platforms. The research enabled by IRISCC contributes to future reports on climate change effects (IPCC, IPBES) as well as policy- and decision-making to meet the targets of climate adaptation strategies. IRISCC contributes to training a new generation of scientists to efficiently use RI services and for data stewardship. Data from IRISCC will be open and made available in compliance with FAIR principles and linked to European initiatives such as EOSC. Strong links will be created between IRISCC and current and future efforts under Horizon Europe.

Stem cell metabolism is characterized by low respiratory activity and high glycolytic flux, which maintain cells in a reductive state. This is important to prevent damage to cellular genomes (nuclear and mitochondrial DNA). In addition and like differenti ated cells and other somatic cells, stem cells perform repair of DNA damage, which is important to preserve stem cell potential. DNA repair involves many distinct repair pathways, but the base excision repair pathway is postulated as the major pathway for  removal of endogenously induced DNA damage. The DNA glycosylases initiate the base excision repair.

This pathway has been the focus of our research for more than two decades, and we have identified several proteins involved in the pathway. Still there a re examples of repair homologues with unknown functions, and some of the characterized proteins may have other functions that remain to be explored. Our laboratory is currently breeding seven different knockout strains defective in DNA glycosylases removi ng oxidized DNA base lesions. These animals provide excellent models to investigate the impact of stem cell DNA integrity for differentiation capacity. By example, neural progenitor cells (neurospheres) derived from brain of two DNA glycosylase knockout m ouse models, ogg1-/- and neil3-/-, showed different properties.  ogg1-/- neurospheres were more prone to differentiation towards astrocytic lineage as compared to wild type cells. Whereas proliferation of neurospheres from ogg1-/- brain was normal we foun d that the pool of neural stem/progenitor cells in neil3 knock-out animals was strongly impaired. 

These observations demonstrate the importance of DNA base repair activity for stem cell proliferation and differentiation, in which genome integrity is dec isive for the fate of stem/progenitor cells. In this project, we will characterize the pluripotency of stem/progenitor cells in DNA glycosylases deficient mouse models.

STEM CELL DNA INTEGRITY AND PLURIPOTENCY

Musikalske uttrykk både speiler og bidrar til å forme de mangefasetterte kulturelle virkelighetene de oppstår i og utgjør en del av. Musikk kan derfor gi oss innblikk i komplekse kulturelle og sosiale problemstillinger. Med sin verdensomspennende kommersielle gjennomslagskraft og lange historie som en politisk ladet uttrykksform, tilbyr hiphop-musikk unike muligheter for å forstå hvordan musikkulturene våre er sammenfiltret med bredere samfunnsmessige utviklinger og utfordringer. 

NORHOP-prosjektet undersøker de mangfoldige funksjonene og betydningene hiphop tilskrives i Norge i dag, og retter særlig oppmerksomhet mot musikkens estetiske, pedagogiske, og sosialpolitiske dimensjoner. Hovedmålet er å undersøke hva hiphop kan fortelle oss om hvordan mennesker reagerer på kulturelle endringer og sammensatte samfunnsutfordringer. Dette innebærer blant annet å studere hvordan artister forholder seg til temaer som kjønn, rasisme og nasjonal tilhørighet, samt å kartlegge hvordan musikken mottas i offentligheten og å utforske dens betydninger for både barn, unge og voksne.  

Prosjektet er tverrfaglig og kombinerer teorier og arbeidsmåter fra musikkvitenskap, musikkpedagogikk, mediestudier, kulturstudier og nærliggende forskningsfelt. Metodene som benyttes vil både være av kritisk analytisk karakter og involvere empiriske tilnærminger som sentrerer artisters og publikums erfaringer og perspektiver. Prosjektet vil innebære analyse av sanger og musikkvideoer, intervjuer med musikere og publikum, undersøkelser av hiphops rolle i norsk samfunnsdebatt, undersøkelser av hiphops utbredelse i utdanningskontekster og barne- og ungdomskulturen, samt studier av musikkpraksiser på internett og i sosiale medier. Denne brede innretningen reflekterer prosjektets ambisjon om å tilby et nyansert og helhetlig syn på mulighetene og begrensningene hiphop gir for å forstå sentrale utviklinger og utfordringer knyttet til Norges bærekraft som et mangfoldig og inkluderende flerkulturelt demokrati.

The NORHOP project will investigate the multiple functions and implications of hip hop music in contemporary Norway, focusing especially on the aesthetic, pedagogical, and sociopolitical dimensions of the performance and reception of hip hop in various cultural, educational, and social contexts. Striving for a holistic view of the possibilities and limitations provided by hip hop for exploring key developments and challenges related to Norway’s sustainability as a diverse and inclusive multicultural democracy, NORHOP combines a critical analytical approach and an interdisciplinary theoretical framework with empirical methods that center the experiences and perspectives of local stakeholders. The project identifies three interrelated areas of particular importance for understanding the mutual influence between popular music culture and broader societal circumstances: 1) the social politics of identity; 2) inclusive music education; 3) digitalization and cultural democratization. By addressing these topics through the lens of Norwegian hip hop music, the project aims to advance our knowledge of how both popular culture and social life in Norway are being impacted by ongoing cultural and social changes affecting the global West.
     NORHOP responds to the urgent need for increased understanding of topical challenges in Norwegian culture, education, and society during a period of significant upheaval. The primary objective of the project is to develop new knowledge about hip hop’s potential to shed light on people’s responses to and negotiation of contemporary cultural developments and social challenges, using the case of Norway as a point of entry for producing insights of international relevance. This is achieved by launching an interdisciplinary and multicontextual study of how musicians and audiences in Norway use hip hop to position themselves within and against their cultural and social circumstances.

Exploring Social Politics, Inclusive Education, and Cultural Democratization Through the lens of Norwegian Hip Hop Music

FAITHED-prosjektet studerer barn og unge med bakgrunn i religiøse minoriteter i Norge og deres forhold til religionsundervisning i eget trossamfunn og i offentlig skole.
Hva karakteriserer trosopplæringen i disse trossamfunnene? Hvordan forstår og forhandler barna og de unge selv forholdet mellom denne undervisningen og KRLE-undervisningen i den offentlige skolen? Hvordan møter skolen elever fra religiøse minoriteter? Og hva tenker elever i offentlig skole om religions- og livssynsmangfold? 
Dette er hovedspørsmålene FAITHED-prosjektet leter etter svar på. Feltet er mangfoldig og lite utforsket. Prosjektet konsentrerer seg om de to største religiøse minoritetene i Norge, muslimske menigheter og Den katolske kirke. Disse har også mange medlemmer med innvandrerbakgrunn. Geografiske forskjeller er et viktig perspektiv i studien. Mye forskning om minoriteter i Norge har vært konsentrert om storbyer. Å være katolikk eller muslim på bygda kan fortone seg helt annerledes. Prosjektet vil samle data både fra Østlandet og Vestlandet, og både fra storby og landsbygd.
Prosjektperioden går over fire år, 2021–2025. Fire institusjoner deltar i FAITHED-prosjektet: Høgskolen i Innlandet, Høgskulen i Volda, PRIO Institutt for fredsforskning og KIFO Institutt for kirke-, religions- og livssynsforskning. Et tverrfaglig team med tolv religionsforskere, skoleforskere og samfunnsforskere medvirker, deriblant to PhD-stipendiater. Prosjektleder er professor Anders Aschim, Høgskolen i Innlandet. En rådgivende gruppe internasjonale eksperter fra Sverige, Danmark, Tyskland og Storbritannia er også tilknyttet prosjektet.

Muslim “Quran schools” are probably the most well-known, and most debated, example of the phenomenon of non-formal faith education among religious minorities in Europe. However, most faith communities have their equivalents. Many students in Norwegian public schools take part in faith education programmes of religious minorities in their spare time, most often run by local religious communities. Most participants are children and youth with an immigrant background. However, knowledge about the extent, content and implementation of non-formal religious education among minority groups is largely non-existent. The FAITHED project seeks to address this significant knowledge gap on faith education among minorities, as an integral dimension of the landscape of education and religious diversity spanning formal and non-formal education institutions.
The FAITHED project will conduct comparative studies of faith education within religious communities belonging to Roman Catholicism and Islam, the two most numerous religious minorities in Norway, in both urban and rural settings, and studies in public schools with a diverse student population in the same settings. 
Research questions:
1. What are the purpose, content and methods of non-formal faith education in Roman Catholic and Muslim settings in Norway, and how is this education organised in urban and rural communities?
2. How do students involved in non-formal faith education programmes understand and negotiate the relationship between faith community-based and school-based religious education?
3. How do public schools meet students of religious minority background, and how (if at all) do schools relate to the phenomenon of non-formal faith education?
4. How do students in Norwegian public schools reflect on religious and life-stance diversities?
Methods: Observation in teaching settings; interviews, including photo elicitation interviews; focus groups; analysis of student materials, documents and educational materials.

Non-formal faith education, the public school, and religious minorities in Norway

Rasisme er et vedvarende samfunnsproblem som også kommer til uttrykk i barnehager og skoler. Forskning peker på hvordan det å snakke om rase i Norge er tabubelagt, og at lærere, lærerstudenter og lærerutdannere unngår å snakke om temaer knyttet til rase og rasisme fordi det skaper ubehag. Samtidig vet vi lite om hva slags kunnskap og ferdigheter studenter får gjennom lærerutdanningen for å kunne adressere og utfordre etablerte forståelser av rase og rasisme i samfunnet. 
Hovedmålet med CERiTE er å utvikle forskningsbasert kunnskap om hvordan lærerutdanninger kan bidra til at lærerstudenter utvikler profesjonsrettet kunnskap for å identifisere, forebygge og motarbeide rasisme. Prosjektet tar utgangspunkt i Kritisk raseteori (CRT). 
Forskerne i prosjektet skal: 
1)kartlegge kunnskap, utfordringer og strategier knyttet til rase og rasisme blant lærerutdannere og lærerstudenter 
2)undersøke transformative potensialer i nyere teoretiske perspektiver
3)utvikle kunnskap om hvordan bruke museer som alternative undervisnings- og læringsarenaer for temaer knyttet 
 til rase og rasisme 
4)utforske om og hvordan bruk av Virtual Reality-teknologi kan bidra til innsikt i hvordan bevisst og ubevisst 
 rase og rasisme kommer til uttrykk i barnehager og skoler
5)utvikle mer empirisk kunnskap om rasialisering og rasisme basert på rasialiserte lærere og lærerstudenters 
erfaringer.
Prosjektet er tverrfaglig og tverrsektorielt og er et samarbeid mellom forskere og profesjonsutøvere fra forskjellige utdanningsdisipliner og institusjoner. Disse er fra Høgskolen i Innlandet, Høgskolen i Østfold, Elverum kommune, Dembra –Nansen fredssenter, Norsk utvandrermuseum, Glomdalsmuseet og Randsfjordmuseet.
Resultater forventes å styrke kunnskapsgrunnlaget om rase og rasisme i utdanningssammenheng og øke kompetansen blant kommende lærere, lærerutdannere og andre samfunnsaktører til å motarbeide rasisme og således bidra til å styrke sosial rettferdighet i norske utdanninger og samfunnet forøvrig.

Racism is increasingly becoming a threat to democratic values in our society. The aim of CERiTE project is to develop research-based knowledge on how teacher education can contribute to the improvement of preservice teachers’ professional competence required to identify and counter racial injustice in Norwegian education and society. This will be done by centering issues of race and racism in teacher education, broadening the professional vocabularies for teacher educators and preservice teachers, but also developing interdisciplinary explorative teaching approaches to address race and racism in education and society.

CERiTE applies Critical Race Theory (CRT), as alternative critical theoretical lenses in Norwegian educational research, to address the taken for granted institutional practices which marginalise racialised minorities in the education system and contexts.

CERiTE uses multisciplinary and interdisciplinary methodological approaches to both research and teaching. These include museums as alternative teaching arenas and Virtual Reality (VR) technology in teaching about social phenomenon such as racialization and racism. This contributes to the development of innovative and critical approaches to teaching about race and racism in society. 

Among the expected scientific results are 10 peer reviewed articles/chapters, disseminated in at least 8 national and international conferences. Given the international and interdisciplinary nature of the group, the results will be published in different fields and languages ensuring broad outreach.

The anticipated societal impact is to provide preservice teachers, inservice teachers, museum workers and other educational practitioners professional vocabularies and skills to address race and racism in education and society. 
Knowledge about race and racism in teacher education, but also among our partners, is important in promoting sustainable development goals (SDG) number 4, 10 and 16.
