Women's Roles In Countering Violent Extremism In Nigeria, Adebimpe Adenike Falade

Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies

Violent extremism presented significant challenges to Nigerians, especially women and children in Northern Nigeria. Women’s consistent roles in the fight for gender equality have been overlooked in the academic literature although their role as valuable players in this fight is essential in achieving the required paradigm shift. Guided by Wollstonecraft’s liberal feminist theory, the purpose of this qualitative phenomenological study was to gain a deeper understanding of women’s roles in combating violent extremism in Nigeria so that strategies and policies could be devised to promote a continuing inclination toward gender equality. The research questions addressed the experiences of women who …

LSU Master's Theses

The region of Southcentral Louisiana, particularly around Bayou Teche, thrives on its commercial and recreational fisheries. These fisheries are occasionally subject to events like extreme weather that cause sudden and unexpected losses (NOAA Fisheries, 2024a). Between 2019 and 2023, a series of extreme weather events impacted southcentral Louisiana near Bayou Teche. This series of extreme events includes Hurricane Barry (2019), Hurricane Laura (2020), Hurricane Delta (2020), Hurricane Zeta (2020), Hurricane Ida (2021), and a United States Drought Monitor (USDM) D4 drought (2023). This study analyzes the impacts of the extreme weather series on coastal fish observed species richness (SR) in …

Community-Level Analysis Of Anti-Asian Hate Crime, Jisoo Cho, Jinuk Jeong, Christopher Han-Fai Seto

Publications and Research

Motivated by the surge in anti-Asian hate crimes during the COVID-19 pandemic, this study examines the community characteristics associated with the likelihood of their occurrence from 2020 to 2023 through interracial conflict and social disorganization perspectives. Analyzing data from the New York City Police Department and the American Community Survey across 2,198 census tracts, we find that communities with higher levels of Asian population, racial heterogeneity, and residential instability have higher odds of experiencing anti-Asian hate crime. However, concentrated disadvantage and defended neighborhoods (White, Black, and Hispanic) are not significant across all estimated models. These findings have important implications for …
