Abstract

This study aimed to assess the level of contributions of Civil Society Organizations (CSOs) to promoting social peace in the Republic of Yemen, by exploring their role across three main dimensions: (enhancing social participation, renouncing violence, and peacebuilding). The study also sought to identify the significance of differences in the respondents' perceptions regarding these contributions based on demographic and functional variables (gender, job title, years of experience, educational qualification, organization type, and organization age).

To achieve the study objectives, the researcher adopted the descriptive-analytical approach and used a questionnaire as the data collection instrument. The questionnaire consisted of (42) items distributed across the three dimensions and was administered to a sample of (386) employees working in local and international organizations in Yemen.

The study yielded several results, most notably: The overall level of CSOs' contributions to promoting social peace was (High) across all dimensions. The "Social Participation" dimension ranked first with an arithmetic mean of (3.92) and a relative weight of (78.40%), followed by the "Renouncing Violence" dimension with a mean of (3.77), while the "Peacebuilding" dimension ranked third with a mean of (3.73). The results also revealed statistically significant differences in the level of contributions attributed to the "Organization Type" variable across all dimensions, in favor of "International Organizations." Based on these findings, the study recommended the necessity of institutionalizing the partnership between the government and CSOs, and directing funding toward sustainable development projects that address the root causes of conflict.

Abstract

The study aimed to measure the impact of customs valuation determinants on achieving a fair customs value in Yemen, specifically in Sana'a, through customs valuation determinants, valuation database, capacity building, and customs enforcement procedures. The researcher adopted the descriptive correlational method and used a questionnaire as the study tool. The study population was limited to senior and middle management and specialists at the Yemen Customs Authority in Sana'a, totaling 320 employees. A sample of 230 questionnaires was distributed among employees of the Yemen Customs Authority in Sana'a, and 185 questionnaires were collected. Five outlier responses were excluded from the total of 185, resulting in 180 questionnaires included in the final statistical analysis, with a response rate of 74%. To conduct the necessary statistical analyses to determine the effects of the study variables, the SPSS (Statistical Package for the Social Sciences) program and the Smart PLS (4PLS-SMART) program were used. The study reached several key findings, most notably: there is a statistically significant effect at the 0.05 significance level (α≥0.05) of the customs valuation determinants—namely, valuation database, capacity building, and customs enforcement procedures—on the fair customs value in the Yemeni Customs Authority in Sana'a, with positive relationships among the study variables. The study concluded with several recommendations, including: establishing a unified customs valuation database by the Yemen Customs Authority to achieve fair customs value for imported goods and merchandise; studying and preparing the use of the customs valuation database available in the ASYCUDA system; applying a principle of selection and appointment in customs valuation positions based on qualifications and experience; organizing regular professional training courses in the field of customs valuation. Additionally, the study recommended that the Yemen Customs Authority work on reducing customs clearance time to limit additional costs on purchase invoices and achieve fair customs value.

Abstract

The study aimed to examine the application of Total Quality Management on job performance development at the Ministry of Civil Service, within the framework of Quranic authenticity and the national vision, and to determine their relationship. The researcher used the descriptive-analytical approach, using a questionnaire on a sample of (197) employees from a population of (737). The study found the application of Total Quality Management achieved a high degree, and a 46% statistically significant effect of applying Quranic leadership and strategic guidance on job performance development. This is because Quranic leadership directs resources and efforts toward achieving goals, supports effective decision-making, and establishes a culture of institutional excellence and ethical commitment, positively reflecting on performance. Results also showed the job performance level in the ministry was high, attributed to employees' commitment to attendance and a strong professional culture despite difficult circumstances. Despite some limiting factors for development, the clarity of the national vision and its connection to employees' tasks enhances commitment and motivates improvement. In conclusion, the researcher recommended that administration is a responsibility rooted in servitude to God, enhancing Quranic leadership by building leaders' capacities, institutionalizing the national vision's principles, and removing obstacles to effective public service delivery.

Abstract

This study aimed to investigate tenth-grade learners' attitudes toward the use of infographics in English language classrooms at schools in Hodeida Governorate. A quasi-experimental design was adopted using the control-and-experiment-groups method as well as pre- and post-tests. Data were collected through a 31-item closed-ended attitude scale based on a five-point Likert format. The attitude scale was administered to both groups (experimental and control) before and after the instructional intervention. The experimental group was taught using 40 infographics-based instructional materials, including pictures, tables, charts, drawings, and graphs, whereas the control group received instruction through the traditional teaching method.

The study sample consisted of 80 tenth-grade learners (40 in each group) from various schools during the 2025/2026 academic year. The results revealed statistically significant differences (p ≤ 0.05) in favor of the experimental group in the post-test, indicating a positive shift in learners' attitudes toward the use of infographics in teaching English. These findings suggest that integrating infographics into English language instruction can effectively enhance learner engagement and positive perceptions of learning. Accordingly, the study recommends that diverse visual materials be incorporated into English classroom teaching and that further research be conducted in different educational contexts to explore the broader impact of infographics-based instruction on learning English as a foreign language.

Abstract

This study investigates the impact of Urban Rooftop Rainwater Harvesting (URWH) on water availability and scarcity in Sana’a City, Yemen. Given the city’s chronic water shortages and irregular municipal supply, households rely increasingly on alternative sources. This research employs a qualitative exploratory approach to analyze the data collected through semi-structured interviews. A sample of 33 residents was determined based on the principle of data saturation, where interviews continued until no new themes or information emerged; the distribution (26 in Tahrir District and 7 in Al-Sab'een District) reflects the higher population density and more acute water distress in the traditional urban downtown of Tahrir. Additionally, 9 key stakeholders were selected using purposive sampling to ensure a multi-dimensional perspective, representing government water authorities, NGOs, and academia. Findings were derived through Inductive Thematic Analysis, involving systematic coding of interview transcripts to identify recurring patterns and consensus among participants. The results indicate that rainwater harvesting can significantly alleviate water scarcity during rainy months, particularly for low-income households. However, the utilization of rainwater in the areas under study is hindered by a host of barriers, including roof suitability, limited storage capacity, and lack of institutional support. The study highlights the potential of URWH as a locally appropriate adaptation strategy and emphasizes the need for targeted interventions, including the provision of storage tanks, technical guidance, and policy support to maximize its impact.
