Digitalization for Reducation of Poverty
The Sustainable Development Goals can be divided into five pillars: people, planet, prosperity, partnership and peace. One of the first stipulated goals of the UN agenda is the eradication of poverty and famine. An increase in digital development will lead to a reduction in the poverty headcount rate. by encouraging digital development and through adopting new technologies, the government can lead to the eradication of poverty. This seems counterintuitive due to the fact that investment in shelter and primary goods can be seen as one of the primary ways of developing the economy. Better and more consistent results regarding the reduction of poverty can be obtained by increasing the digital development of a country.

Sustaining Work-Fulfillment through Multigenerational Diversity and Emotional Communication
Emotional communication is gradually gaining the attention of various industries in Nigeria, particularly on the issues and concerns of sustaining employees’ fulfilment. Multigenerational diversity is considered a contributing factor for the retention of employees at work, but the mechanism behind this relationship remains unclear. As the workforce continues to shift and change, the directors, managers, and supervisors of the Federal Civil Service of Nigeria should be prepared to manage a multigenerational team with varying needs, values, and priorities. In addition, the ability of the Ministry to emphasise the effect of emotional communication in a conducive learning environment will go a long way in improving and enhancing sustainable employee work fulfilment.

Environmental, Social, and Governance Maturity
Given the rising demand for more transparent, consistent, and comprehensive non-financial information in investment, there is a need to provide more reliable, meaningful, and measurable Environmental, Social, and Governance [ESG] metrics, in a way that most frameworks cannot. Most established frameworks face difficulties and challenges in providing sustainability information to investors in a significant way, lacking in areas such as transparency, reliability, consistency, materiality, and particularly, their focus on the “S” dimension of ESG.

Humanitarian Activities against COVID-19 Disruption
The COVID-19 pandemic has affected more than 214 countries across the world, disrupting the supply of essential commodities. As the pandemic has spread, humanitarian activities (HAs) have attempted to manage the various situation but appear ineffective due to lack of collaboration and information sharing, inability to respond towards disruption, etc. Developing a sustainable humanitarian supply chain (HSC) for managing disasters/emergencies can be viewed as an extension of the traditional supply chain. Thus, sustainable HSCs have evolved as a specialized discipline with a focus on social sustainability.
