Accelerometer application mathematical model by Vincas Benevičius, Narimantas Listopadskis

“…The results also showed origins for errors which according to the results, are quite high globally. The final conclusion follows: the model created must be analized further in a deeper level, and error origins must be eliminated or at least minimized by either chosing different solving or modeling methods, either by revising used ones. …”

Reflections on the relevance of updated, standardised, and reliable data on sexual and gender-based violence for research and policymaking for eradication, response, and prevention... by Zinnya del Villar, Anna Spinardi, Ivette Yáñez, Alina Sotolongo, Ana Deborah Lana, Berenice Fernandez Nieto, Yara Antoniassi, Ricardo Fuentes-Nieva, Emmanuel Letouzé

“…Sexual and gender–based violence (SGBV) is a multifaceted, endemic, and nefarious phenomenon that remains poorly measured and understood, despite greater global awareness of the issue. While efforts to improve data collection methods have increased–including the implementation of the Demographic and Health Survey (DHS) in some countries–the lack of reliable SGBV data remains a significant challenge to developing targeted policy interventions and advocacy initiatives. …”
