Vol. 2 No. 8 (2024): Volume 2 Issue 8
The August 2024 issue of the Journal of Interdisciplinary Perspectives looks at how decisions about shared resources affect local communities. A study of quarrying along the Buayan River in General Santos City examines employment and infrastructure alongside concerns about dust, erosion, and water quality. Research on marine protected areas in Sarangani and coastal tourism in Aklan considers how communities manage the resources they depend on.
In education, contributors examine the challenges parents and teachers face when using printed modules with learners with special needs. A review of mother tongue-based multilingual education looks at teacher preparation, translation, and the availability of learning materials. These studies give readers a close view of what it takes to put educational programs into practice.
Accounts of farm mechanization in Nueva Ecija and job insecurity among government contractual workers bring attention to livelihoods. The issue also includes research on antibiotic purchases without prescriptions, road safety in Marawi, and the evolutionary relationships of Philippine pitcher plants.
We thank the authors for sharing their work and the reviewers and editorial team for helping bring this issue to publication.
