Unlabelled: Despite the popularity of access-based platforms, the understanding of customer journeys remains anchored in traditional market contexts that overlook prosumers' extended value-chain roles, interconnected experiences, and instrumental sociality in access-based consumption. Using a qualitative study on the access-based platform Rent the Runway, the authors discuss the nature of customer journeys in access-based platforms and showcase how customers perform these journeys. The study reveals two key elements: (1) systemic dynamics, which encompass just-in-time circularity and tightly coupled customer interdependencies, and (2) job crafting, which involves customer work practices that allow pain point avoidance, circulation flow adjustments, and journey stickiness increases. Job crafting can create unpredictable disruptions in other customer journeys and affect systemic flows. This investigation expands research on customer experience management and journey design by developing an access-based platform journey model differentiated from ownership- and service-based platform models, showcasing its systemic instability dynamics, and elaborating how to manage these customer journeys.

African research capacity is challenged by insufficient infrastructure to solicit and manage grants from local and international funding agencies. The manuscript provides an overview and discusses lessons learned about the pioneering role of the Mozambique Institute for Health Education and Research (MIHER) as the first research support center (RSC) in supporting the management of research grants in Mozambique, emphasizing its impact on research capacity development. Using mixed methods, data were comprehensively collected to identify MIHER's primary achievements from 2010 to 2023.

In the face of increasingly diverse demands from tourists, traditional methods for scenic route planning often struggle to meet these varied needs. To address this challenge and enhance the overall service quality of tourist destinations, as well as to better understand individualized preferences of visitors, this study proposes a novel approach to scenic route planning and itinerary customization based on multi-layered mixed hypernetwork optimization. Firstly, an adaptive multi-route feature extraction method is introduced to capture personalized demands of tourists.

Background: In the landscape of Indian healthcare, the role of leadership in addressing disparities and driving change is often overlooked, particularly within medical education. Through the lens of the author journeying from a volunteer to ultimately a leader of a student-led non-profit organisation, this article explores the reason, rhyme and possible resolutions to the quiet effect of lacking leadership in healthcare education.
Methods: Drawing from personal experience and reflections, the article highlights the profound impact of grassroots initiatives in reaching underserved populations and how inadequate leadership hindered their ability to scale effectively.

The concept of cultural safety, developed in the training of nurses over 30 years ago, was adopted by the Medical Council of New Zealand in 2019. We report on the journey of the Medical Council of New Zealand, Te ORA (the Māori Medical Practitioners Association) and the Council of Medical Colleges, and our increasing understanding of cultural competence and cultural safety in promoting best outcomes for Māori patients over the years. We describe in detail the key components of a cultural safety training framework as a tool for medical colleges' training of registrars and the Continuing Professional Development (CPD) of specialist medical practitioners.
