- Quality Education for All: A Fuzzy Set Analysis of Sustainable Development Goal CompliancePublication . Luísa Carvalho; Dora Almeida; Ana Loures; Paulo Ferreira; Fernando Rebola; Carvalho, Luisa; Almeida, Dora; et al.The relationship between education and societal development is unquestionable. Education contributes to achieving both societies’ and individuals’ social and economic goals. Quality education is recognized as one of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), which, jointly with other behaviors and attitudes, could impact the development of societies in other fields like health and well-being, cultural preservation, environmental sustainability, and even peace and stability—all of them also listed as SDGs. However, the capacity, or not, to reach higher levels of compliance with quality in education (SDG 4) varies from country to country, according to the 2023 Sustainable Development Report results. Thus, the present study aims to identify the sufficient conditions for achieving higher levels of quality education (SDG 4) globally and to analyze how these conditions vary across different world regions. Applying a fuzzy set qualitative comparative analysis and using data from the 2023 Sustainable Development Report, we focus our analysis on four SDG 4 indicators—early education, primary education, lower secondary education, and literacy rate—across 117 countries, in order to assess the conditions for attaining higher levels of quality education. The results reveal there are specific and identifiable conditions that are sufficient for achieving higher levels of quality education on a global scale, with significant regional variations. These insights contribute to understanding the complex dynamics of educational quality and could be used as guidance for policymakers and educators aiming to improve educational outcomes worldwide.

- Company Management in the Insurance Sector: Valuing Employees and their Work CommitmentPublication . João Serrasqueiro; Marta Félix; Pedro Veiga; Paulo Ferreira; Dora AlmeidaThis study focuses mainly on the role of employees in insurance companies in Portugal, analysing the importance of valuing them and their commitment to their work. Considering the above, this research aims to examine which aspects lead to greater commitment on the part of employees and what makes them feel valued within the organisations where they work. A quantitative methodology was used to fulfil this objective, and a questionnaire was applied to various employees in the insurance companies operating in the Portuguese market. The study’s results of the study highlight a positive relationship between leadership, the inclusion of employees, and their commitment to work. They also highlight that participation in decision-making positively influences their satisfaction, appreciation, and loyalty to their company. It can, therefore, be concluded that investing in employees and increasing their satisfaction and commitment is crucial for sustainable growth and organisational success.
