Abstract: Without justice, strong institutions and peace - we have no hankered for sustainable development. The world nowadays is increasingly divisive. Some countries have continuous levels of harmony, assurance, and opulence, while others plunge into an eternal series of friction and ferity. This is inevitable and need to deal with. The SDGs (Sustainable Development Goals) have embraced technological advancement and worldwide communication as important forces in driving human growth, reducing digital divides, and strengthening information societies. The use of digital can motivate us to achieve the Goal of Sustainable Development. Globally, technology is increasingly being used in efforts to fight corruption, not only to focus on bribery, illegality, money laundering, fraud, and racism, but also to promote transparency, accountability, integrity, openness, participation and inclusion. This is particularly clear in the new corruption, surveillance, representation and government programs, including open contracts and electronic purchases. A clear understanding of how modern technologies are needed to keep peace, justice and a strong institution over the next decade is needed. Based on desk research, the study investigated the following emerging technologies relevant to integrity, trust, and anti-corruption: Artificial intelligence, learning tools, and in-depth learning tools; blockchain technology; big data statistics; robotic process automation; Internet of Things; and cloud computing. The study looked to find the challenges posed by the SDGs to build and keep peace, justice and a strong institution. The discussion in each chapter also deals with the technological solutions provided by IT on how they relate to the Malaysian context.

Abstract: For decades, developing countries have been putting more effort to overcome poverty. Tanzania is one of the countries that introduced the Conditional Cash Transfer Project that targeted households that were identified and verified as poor. The researcher, therefore, aimed to establish the extent to which the mediating Capacity Building influenced the relationship between combined households’ involvement in the Monitoring and Evaluation and performance of the Tanzania Conditional Cash Transfer Project. Due to the adoption of a pragmatic paradigm, the study applied cross-sectional and correlation research designs. The Yamane’s formula was used to obtain a sample of 400 respondents from the target population of 61,240 households. The questionnaires, key in-depth interviews, and focus group discussions were used to collect data. The findings established a significant influence between combined households’ involvement in Monitoring and Evaluation and the performance of the Tanzania Conditional Cash Transfer Project (t=1.212, p-value=>0.05). However, the addition of capacity building had no significant influence on the performance of the Tanzania Conditional Cash Transfer Project (t=1.212, p>0.05). Therefore, mediating Capacity Building had no significant influence on the relationship between households’ involvement in the Monitoring and Evaluation and performance of the Tanzania Conditional Cash Transfer Project. Therefore, it was recommended that implementers of the project should introduce a training and development plan for imparting skills to households’ representatives before engaging them in M&E plans. The skills attained from the training would enable households’ representatives to team up with M&E Department and participate in the technical aspects with maximum success.

Abstract: This paper is an evaluation of the public policies undertaken by the Cameroonian government in Bakassi Peninsula in the framework of the Greentree agreements in 2006, which clearly defined the responsibilities of each country (Nigeria and the Cameroon) as a necessity of peacebuilding in the gulf of Guinea. This article is also an analysis of the socioeconomic issues within the framework of the implementation of the Sustainable Development Goals where Cameroon has made a high level vision by taking a more active part in development issues. At the first part, this paper analyzed the legal arrangements for the retrocession of the Bakassi Peninsula to Cameroon and the applicability of the judgment of the 10th October 2002 and the Greentree Agreements of June 12, 2006 in the second part. The aim of this paper is to contribute to the growing body of work that still affect the expansion of sociopolitical, economic and managerial strategy regarding the geopolitical position of Cameroon.
