Methodological and empirical challenges of SEEA EEA in developing contexts: Towards ecosystem service accounts in the Kyrgyz Republic
چالش های روش شناختی و تجربی SEEA EEA در زمینه های توسعه: به سمت حساب های خدمات اکوسیستم در جمهوری قرقیزستان-2021 The System of Environmental-Economic Accounting Experimental Ecosystem Accounting (SEEA EEA) represents
a crucial approach to incorporate the assessment of the sustainable use of natural resources and ecosystems into
decision- and policy-making. However, its application is constrained by challenges distinct across specific
implementation contexts, including those present in developing nations. In this paper, we focus on a pilot SEEA
EEA application in a local-scale case study in Kyzyl Unkur, Jalal-Abad region, the Kyrgyz Republic, characterized
by a unique natural walnut forest. We summarize key methodological and empirical challenges identified
through collaboration with local experts and stakeholders during the compilation of Supply and Use tables for
selected ecosystem services (ES) relevant at local, national and global levels. Specifically, we focus on the
methodological challenges related to a) defining and assigning benefits for own consumption; b) delineating the
chain of ES flows (e.g., fodder for farm animals); c) uncovering the relevance of carbon sequestration in
developing nation contexts which are often minor greenhouse gas (GHG) emitters and demand for the service lies
mostly beyond their boundaries. Among empirical challenges, we highlight the issues of data collection and
availability. The aim of this communication is to provide lessons learnt from building SEEA EEA accounts in a
developing, data-scarce context, potentially transferable to other similar applications. keywords: حسابداری خدمات اکوسیستم | سیستم زیست محیطی و اقتصادی | حسابداری | کشور در حال توسعه | حسابداری زیست محیطی | Ecosystem service accounting | SYSTEM of Environmental and Economic | Accounting | Developing country | Environmental accounting |

Innovation for sustainability in the Global South: bibliometric findings from management & business and STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) fields in developing countries
نوآوری برای پایداری در جنوب جهانی: یافته های کتاب سنجی از مدیریت و تجارت و زمینه های STEM (علم، فناوری، مهندسی و ریاضیات) در کشورهای در حال توسعه-2021 Research on innovation and sustainability is prolific but fragmented. This study integrates the research on
innovation in management and business and STEM fields for sustainability in a unified framework for the case of
developing countries (i.e., the Global South). It presents and discusses the output, impact, and structure of such
research based on a sample of 14,000 þ articles and conference proceedings extracted from the bibliographic
database Scopus. The findings reveal research output inflections after global announcements such as UN-Earth
Summits. The study also reveals the indisputable leadership of China in overall output and research agendasetting.
Nonetheless, countries such as India, Mexico, and Nigeria are either more efficient or impactful. GS
research published in highly reputable journals is still scarce but increasing modestly. Central topic clusters (e.g.,
knowledge management) remain peripheral to the global Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) research landscape.
Finally, academic-corporate collaboration is in its infancy and limited to particular economic sectors:
energy, pharmaceuticals, and high-tech.

Blockchain and sustainable supply chain management in developing countries
بلاکچین و مدیریت پایدار زنجیره تامین در کشورهای در حال توسعه-2021 Theoretical, empirical and anecdotal evidence suggests that there are more violations of sustainability principles in supply chains in developing countries than in developed countries. Recent research has demonstrated that blockchain can play an important role in promoting supply chain sustainability. In this paper we argue that blockchain’s characteristics are especially important for enforcing sustainability standards in developing coun- tries. We analyze multiple case studies of blockchain projects implemented in supply chains in developing countries to assess product quality, environmental accounting and social impact measurement. We have developed seven propositions, which describe how blockchain can help address a number of challenges various stakeholders face in promoting sustainable supply chains in developing countries. The challenges that the propositions deal with include those associated with an unfavorable institutional environment, high costs, technological limitations, unequal power distribution among supply chain partners and porosity and opacity of value delivery networks.

Accounting for repetition and dropout in contemporaneous cross-section learning profiles: Evidence from Rwanda
حسابداری برای تکرار و رها کردن در پروفایل های یادگیری مقطع مقطع مقطعی: شواهد از رواندا-2021 How much do children learn in a year of school? Longitudinal data that tracks children over time is scarce in
developing countries, and so recent studies estimate learning profiles by comparing the ability of people with
different amounts of schooling, at a single point in time. Such estimates of the effect of schooling on learning may
be biased upwards by not controlling for repetition and dropout. In this paper I estimate contemporaneous cross-
section learning profiles for Rwanda, using data from a nationally representative survey of 3053 children aged six
to eighteen. I show how adjusting this learning profile for the total number of years enrolled in school (ac-
counting for repetition and dropout), using detailed schooling histories, reduces the average amount learnt per
year by over 60 percent. The learning profile for Rwanda is not just too flat, but flatter than previous estimates
suggest. keywords: یادگیری | ارزیابی | رواندا | تکرار | Learning | Assessment | Rwanda | Repetition |

The use of fishers’ knowledge to assess benthic resource abundance across management regimes in Chilean artisanal fisheries
استفاده از دانش ماهیگیران برای ارزیابی فراوانی منابع بنیادی در رژیم های مدیریت در شیلات صنایع شیلی-2021 Globally, marine fisheries remain largely unassessed, particularly small-scale fisheries in developing countries.
Fishers’ knowledge has proven to be valuable to help fill gaps of information in otherwise unassessed fisheries.
This study tested the reliability of fishers’ knowledge to estimate the abundance of two benthic resources, locos
(Concholepas concholepas) and keyhole limpets (Fissurella spp.), across two management regimes, territorial user
rights for fisheries (TURF) and open access areas (OAA), over ~500 km of coastline in central Chile. Fishers’
knowledge (FK) was quantified using systematic interviews and compared to direct assessments (DA). Addi-
tionally, resource abundance was compared between the fishing regimes, considering regions with different
concentration of TURFs (and consequently different availability of OAAs). The results show that abundances
estimated by the two methods were highly consistent for the most valuable resource (the loco) and quite reliable
for the keyhole limpet (for 67% of the comparisons). Abundances of both resources were higher in TURFs than in
OAAs, a pattern detected by both FK and DA. The results clearly show the potential of this approach to be applied
for the Chilean benthic fisheries over large scales. Interestingly, the results also show significantly lower
abundance of locos in OAAs than in TURFs at coves immersed in zones with low availability of open access
fishing grounds, suggesting the influence of effort displacement after the implementation of TURFs. This
ancillary result highlights the need for seascape management plans that consider the potential, unintended ef-
fects of TURFs on resources beyond their boundaries. These findings are of both local and global interest, sup-
porting the use of FK to inform management in unassessed small-scale fisheries. keywords: ادراک فیشر | گرفتن هر واحد تلاش | حقوق کاربر ارضی | جابجایی تلاش | ماهیگیری در مقیاس کوچک | خرگوش | Fishers’ perception | Catch per unit of effort | Territorial user rights | Effort displacement | Small-scale fisheries | Shellfish |

Charting the development of the Egyptian accounting profession (1946–2016): An analysis of the State-Profession dynamics
نمودار توسعه حرفه حسابداری مصر (1946-2016): تحلیلی از پویایی دولت-حرفه ای-2021 This paper mobilises notions of professional closure and political economy to analyse the
development of the Egyptian accounting profession (1946–2016). We rely on interviews
with Egyptian Society of Accountants and Auditors (ESAA) board members, government
officials, representatives of international/local firms, and academics. Legislative
documents (particularly Accounting Practice Law 133/1951), regulations and
publications were also analysed. Established since 1946, ESAA’s initial attempts to
embed an ‘Anglo-American’ professional model were curtailed by the newly independent
State enabling non-credentialed and relatively less experienced native practitioners to be
registered as qualified accountants. The State’s influence persisted during the socialist
period of nationalisation with a de-emphasising of the accounting profession as an
occupational group. The early stages of market capitalism witnessed attempts to redevelop a private-sector-led profession with the support of international organisations,
which re-asserted the dominant position of ESAA members. However, government, ESAA
and international agencies’ efforts to repeal the original Accounting Practice Law and
achieve market closure for the primary benefit of ESAA members were thwarted by
political pressure from non-ESAA accountants. Nonetheless, ESAA eventually secured
privileged access to the listed firms’ audit market. This paper aims to enhance our
understanding of changing State-led priorities on accounting professionalization in
African developing countries.

Strengthening science, technology, and innovation-based incubators to help achieve Sustainable Development Goals : Lessons from India
تقویت علم، فن آوری، و رشد مبتنی بر نوآوری برای کمک به دستیابی اهداف توسعه پایدار: درس هایی از هند-2020 Policymakers in developing countries increasingly see science, technology, and innovation (STI) as an avenue for
meeting sustainable development goals (SDGs), with STI-based startups as a key part of these efforts. Market
failures call for government interventions in supporting STI for SDGs and publicly-funded incubators can potentially
fulfil this role. Using the specific case of India, we examine how publicly-funded incubators could
contribute to strengthening STI-based entrepreneurship. Indias STI policy and its links to societal goals span
multiple decades—but since 2015 these goals became formally organized around the SDGs. We examine why
STI-based incubators were created under different policy priorities before 2015, the role of public agencies in
implementing these policies, and how some incubators were particularly effective in addressing the societal
challenges that can now be mapped to SDGs. We find that effective incubation for supporting STI-based entrepreneurship
to meet societal goals extended beyond traditional incubation activities. For STI-based incubators
to be effective, policymakers must strengthen the ‘incubation system’. This involves incorporating targeted SDGs
in specific incubator goals, promoting coordination between existing incubator programs, developing a performance
monitoring system, and finally, extending extensive capacity building at multiple levels including for
incubator managers and for broader STI in the country. Keywords: Science technology and innovation | developing countries | entrepreneurship | incubators | public policy | sustainable development goals | science policy |

Factors influencing the adoption of mHealth services in a developing country: A patient-centric study
عوامل مؤثر بر اتخاذ خدمات بهداشتی و درمانی در یک کشور در حال توسعه: یک مطالعه بیمار محور-2020 mHealth under the umbrella of eHealth has become an essential tool for providing quality, accessible and equal
health care services at an affordable cost. Despite the potential benefits of mHealth, its adoption remains a big
challenge in developing countries such as Bangladesh. This study aims to examine the factors affecting the
adoption of mHealth services in Bangladesh by using the extended Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of
Technology (UTAUT) model with perceived reliability and price value factors. It also examines the moderating
effect of gender on the intention to use and on the actual usage behavior of users of mHealth services. A wellstructured
face-to-face survey was employed to collect the data. Structural equation modeling (SEM) with a
partial least squares method was used to analyze the data collected from 296 generation Y participants. The
results confirmed that performance expectancy, social influence, facilitating conditions and perceived reliability
positively influence the behavioral intention to adopt mHealth services. However, effort expectancy and price
value did not have a significance influence on the behavioral intention. Moreover, Gender has a significant
moderating effect on mHealth services adoption in certain cases. Finally, the theoretical and practical implications
of this study are also discussed. Keywords: mHealth | Developing countries | UTAUT model | Generation Y | Bangladesh |

Co-production of knowledge and adaptation to water scarcity in developing countries
تولید دانش و سازگاری با کمبود آب در کشورهای در حال توسعه-2020 Dwindling of freshwater resources is a harsh reality of the arid and semi-arid regions of the world and climate
change is expected to deteriorate their situation through major reduction of freshwater supplies. Co-production
of knowledge, through active negotiation of experts, government and local stakeholders has been used as a
strategy to adapt to water scarcity. However, in many developing countries, co-production of knowledge is not
common and adaptation efforts rarely reflects the plurality of involved knowledge sources and actors. Given the
urgent need of transition towards water-efficient agricultural practices, the Iran’s government applied the
knowledge co-production approach and implemented an integrated participatory crop management (IPCM)
project in the Bakian village, Fars province. The objectives of this study were to analyze the knowledge coproduction
process, identify the factors contributing to adoption of the co-produced knowledge and investigate
the corresponding social, economic and environmental impacts. A mixed-method research was conducted
comprising a case study on 19 informants selected using purposive sampling and a survey of 150 rice producers
selected through systematic random sampling. The results indicated the relevance and pertinence of knowledge
co-production in recognizing the real problems of the rice producers and suggesting some potential adaptive
strategies. Though a wide range of natural, financial, technical, institutional and structural constraints restricted
adoption of the proposed adaptive strategies, application of the co-produced knowledge significantly increased
water productivity, ensured higher yields and farm-based sustainable livelihoods, and enhanced resilience of the
farm households under water scarcity. Some recommendations and implications are offered to increase adaptation
of farm families to water scarcity. Keywords: Co-production of knowledge | Adaptation | Water scarcity | Climate change | Integrated participatory crop management | Impact assessment |

Sustainable reverse logistics scorecards for the performance measurement of informal e-waste businesses
کارت امتیازی تدارکات معکوس پایدار برای اندازه گیری عملکرد مشاغل غیررسمی پسماندهای الکترونیکی-2020 Many countries depend on businesses in reverse chains to tackle the environmental pollution caused by the tremendous amount of e-waste. Furthermore, due to the domination of informal businesses in many developing countries, environmental rules are not considered during operation, and these violations tend to affect public health adversely. The government in these developing countries finds it difficult to manage and utilize e-waste due to insufficient resources properly. The existing performance measures are only appropriate for imple- mentation in developed countries with the inability to assess informal e-waste businesses in developing countries. Therefore, to address this gap, this research proposes sustainable reverse logistics scorecards (SRLS) to identify informal e-waste businesses performance. Data were obtained through in-depth interviews with eleven experts, questionnaire survey with one hundred eighty-six informal e-waste businesses in Indonesia using the snowball sampling method and by measurement identification using the statistical descriptive analysis such as mean, geometric mean, mode, and sign-test median including experts confirmation. The results showed that there are twenty-two parameters from six perspectives namely financial, stakeholders value, internal business processes, innovation and growth, environment, and social. These parameters can be used as a performance measurement following government regulation and adjusting the motivation, strategy, capability, and activities of informal e- waste businesses. They are also useful for practical assessment and decision purposes, such as process safety and economic impact evaluation of businesses with the ability to create job opportunities, satisfy employees, and provide persuasive incentives. The balance between environment, welfare, and e-waste management is realized through SRLS. We suggested that other researchers use these parameters to assess the performance of informal e- waste throughout Indonesia and the government considered these parameters to assess them before deciding to collaborate for handling e-waste problems.
