The United Nations' 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development recognizes violence as a threat to sustainability. To serve as a context, we provide an overview of the Sustainable Development Goals as they relate to violence prevention by including a summary of key documents informing violence prevention efforts by the World Health Organization (WHO) and Violence Prevention Alliance (VPA) partners. After consultation with the United Nations (UN) Inter-Agency Expert Group on Sustainable Development Goal Indicators (IAEG-SDG), we select specific targets and indicators, featuring them in a summary table. Using the diverse expertise of the authors, we assign attributes that characterize the focus and nature of these indicators. We hope that this will serve as a preliminary framework for understanding these accountability metrics. We include a brief analysis of the target indicators and how they relate to promising practices in violence prevention.

Integrating ecological and recreational functions to optimize ecological security pattern in Fuzhou City.

College of Landscape Architecture and Art, Fujian Agriculture and Forestry University, Fuzhou, 350002, China.
The scientific establishment of the Ecological Security Pattern (ESP) is crucial for fostering the synergistic development of ecological and recreational functions, thereby enhancing urban ecological protection, recreational development, and sustainable growth. This study aimed to propose a novel method of constructing ESP considering both ecological and recreational functions, and to reconstruct ESP by weighing the relationship between ecological protection and recreational development. Utilizing Fuzhou City as a case study, a comprehensive application of methodologies including Morphological Spatial Pattern Analysis (MSPA), landscape connectivity analysis, ArcGIS spatial analysis, social network analysis (SNA), and circuit theory is employed to develop both the ESP and the Recreational Spatial Pattern (RSP).

The contributions of academic drug discovery are well characterised in the US context but less well understood elsewhere. This paper provides a UK perspective, focusing on the activities of Drug Discovery Units (DDUs). These units have established themselves as coordinators of translational research, working at the early stages of the drug pipeline to link up the academic and industry capabilities needed to take drug candidates towards the market.

Addressing loess salinisation is a crucial element in preserving ecological stability and fostering sustainable development in the northwest Loess Plateau. To investigate the impacts of salt solution on the properties of loess, independently designed salt solution-loess dynamic cyclic erosion equipment was used to soak the loess. Then, numerous tests were performed to analyse the variability of the effects of salt solution concentrations (SSC) and type, as well as the duration of soaking time, on these physico-mechanical properties.

Adsorption and biodegradation are two important means to remove the pollutants from the environment, but how to combine them and improve the catalytic performance and stability of free enzyme are facing great challenges. Herein, lipase from Candida rugosa (CRL) was immobilized into bimetallic ZnCo-MOF by biomineralization, which not only significantly improved the catalytic activity and stability of CRL but also endowed it with excellent reusability. Furthermore, CRL@ZnCo-MOF established a synergetic system of combined adsorption and enzymatic degradation for the sustainable removal of dibutyl phthalate (DBP) in actual water environment.

With the continuous development of intelligent transportation systems, traffic safety has become a major societal concern, and vehicle trajectory anomaly detection technology has emerged as a crucial method to ensure safety. However, current technologies face significant challenges in handling spatiotemporal data and multi-feature fusion, including difficulties in big data processing, and have room for improvement in these areas. To address these issues, this paper proposes a novel method that combines autoencoders, Mahalanobis distance, and dynamic Bayesian networks for anomaly detection.
