Title: Knowledge of Chakma farm women in homestead gardening in the selected villages of Rangamati, Bangladesh
Abstract
The purpose of the study was to determine knowledge of Chakma farm women about homestead gardening. The study was conducted in Sapchari and Kutukchari union of Rangamati Sadar Upazila under Rangamati District. Chakma farm women of Rangamti Sadar Upazila constituted the population of the study. An update list of 400 Chakma farm women who were related to homestead gardening activities was prepared with the help of Sub-Assistant Agricultural Officer of these localities. One hundred farm women were selected as the sample of the study by using random sampling method. A well-structured interview schedule was developed based on the objectives of the study for collecting information. The researcher herself collected data through personal contact. Data revealed that majority (58%) of Chakma farm women had medium knowledge in homestead gardening followed by high knowledge (27%) and low knowledge (15%). Education, contact with extension agent, exposure to mass media and woman status in the family had significant positive relationship with knowledge of homestead gardening. Age, farm size, annual net income and cosmopoliteness had no significant relationship with knowledge of homestead gardening.
Key Words: Home Garden, Hill Tracts, Tribal women, Chakma livelihood and Gardening Knowledge.

Title: Knowledge creation and performance of Deposit-Taking SACCOs in Nyeri County, Kenya
Abstract
In order to DT-SACCOs to remain competitive in the environment characterized by uncertainty and changes, knowledge creation and proper management are paramount. The current study, therefore, sought to determine the effect of knowledge creation on performance of deposit-taking SACCOs in Nyeri County Kenya. This study applied a descriptive research design. The researcher focused on 11 licensed DT-SACCOs operating in Nyeri County. The respondents of the study were 110 management staff in the human resource, credit, ICT, marketing, finance. The study adopted census on all the 110 employees from the DT-SACCOs. Questionnaires were used in collection of primary data. Descriptive analysis and chi-square analysis were conducted with the help of SPSS. The study found that SACCOs differed significantly in knowledge creation. Chi-square analysis showed that that knowledge creation (p=0.00) was statistically significant. It was concluded that knowledge creation positively enhanced SACCO performance. The study recommends that the deposit taking SACCOs need to come up with more ways of creating knowledge by empowering its staff to be innovative and creative.

Title: Comparative analysis of the government investments and revenue from different sectors in Bangladesh and its impact on the development of HRM sectors: A 20 years of study
Abstract
Human resource management divisions are such critical areas of both the public and private sectors that can regulate a country's socio-economic and financial status via generating and manipulating skilled workforces for all possible revenue sectors. Nominal GDP with purchasing power parity (PPP) of a nation is directly interlinked with the human resource policies. For such a developing country as Bangladesh, human resource development and management issues are often very challenging, when the government has to face the demands of a vast population with the least amount of resources. In this research, different highest to the lowest revenue sectors of our country have analyzed depending on the opinions of the HRM experts and the data records of the government, where a correlative study have preferred with the government invest to revenue scale for sector wise human resource development over twenty years. In all aspects, the correlation was significant, because only the highest emphasized sectors of the Govt. could ensure better subsidiaries, higher investments and phenomenal human resource management such as- agriculture and textiles than the inferior looking sectors namely- healthcare and socio-economic. Comprehensive factorial analysis has taken place in this research which can help to figure out the concerns and prospects of the HRM sectors means skilful training facility, health insurance, gender discrimination, education level, corruption, public private partnerships, government policies and so on. A business friendly environment and job sector comparative education and training systems can ensure sound HRM in Bangladesh with proper and cutting edge integrative policies.

Title: Improvement of ecotourism industry: A study on Mirsharai and Sitakunda in Chattogram, Bangladesh
Abstract
This study's principal aim was to represent the current status and future prospects of ecotourism industry at Mirsharai and Sitakunda in Chattogram, Bangladesh. The study revealed that Inland transportation was the highest service provider in number through the whole ecotourism spots in the project areas except Sitakunda Eco-park. The average primary income per annum of the service provider was BDT 11855223.9±817433.0 and BDT 12180952.4 ±1318722.7 for Sitakunda and Mirsharai, respectively. On the other hand, the benefit-cost (B/C) ratio showed that all the green businesses were beneficial from their inception. The highest number of visitors per day in Guliakhali beach in season and offseason, was 2040.9±441.1 and 550.0±184.5, respectively. Most of the visitors did not have any disturbance on flora, fauna and aquatic ecosystem. The critical factors which hinder the ecotourism development were retarding the number of visitors and diminish the satisfaction of the tourists visiting the spots. The essential supports needed are electricity, dustbin, quality restaurant, park for children, washroom facility, sitting bench, road improvement, loan facility etc. It was predicted that ecotourism industry would be added value to the Bangladeshi economy if a proper integrated plan and strategy can be built in the study areas and implemented for this purpose. This study will also be useful in monitoring and evaluating the project on ecotourism development in the areas.

Title: COVID-19 and business continuity management: a case of Pakistan, contributing to mixed methods research
Abstract
Globalization and increasing competition have enforced businesses to develop ways to avoid disruptions and continuing business operations in all situations. However, the outbreak of COVID-19 throughout the world is far above expectations, for which the existing business continuity plans with the organizations around the world are lagging behind. This study has tried to find a link between COVID-19 and existing business continuity management systems available with the organizations in Pakistan, being a developing country. Moreover, relationships among employee satisfaction, BCP and health provisions in BCM have also been identified through the combination of qualitative and quantitative analysis. Hence, this study is a Contribution to Mixed Methods Research.
Key Words: COVID-19, Business Continuity, Employee Satisfaction, Employee Training, Pakistan and Mixed Methods in Research.
