Road accidents involving motorcyclists significantly threaten sustainable mobility and community safety, necessitating a comprehensive examination of contributing factors. This study investigates the behavioral aspects of motorcyclists, including riding anger, sensation-seeking, and mindfulness, which play crucial roles in road accidents. The study employed structural equation modeling to analyze the data, utilizing a cross-sectional design and self-administered questionnaires. The results indicate that riding anger and sensation-seeking tendencies have a direct impact on the likelihood of road accidents, while mindfulness mitigates these effects. Specifically, mindfulness partially mediates the relationships between riding anger and road accident proneness, as well as between sensation-seeking and road accident proneness. These findings underscore the importance of effective anger management, addressing sensation-seeking tendencies, and promoting mindfulness practices among motorcyclists to enhance road safety and sustainable mobility. The insights gained from this research are invaluable for relevant agencies and stakeholders striving to reduce motorcycle-related accidents and foster sustainable communities through targeted interventions and educational programs.

Access to clean water and improved sanitation are basic elements of any meaningful discourse in rural development. They are critical challenges for achieving sustainable development over the next decade. This paper seeks to examine the strategies for improving access to clean water and sanitation in Nigerian rural communities. Hypothetically, the paper states that there is no significant relationship between access to clean water and sanitation and the attainment of Sustainable Development Goal 6 in Nigeria. The paper leverages Resilience Theory. The survey research design was adopted, and primary data was obtained from a sample size of 250 respondents, proportionally drawn from the 10 wards in Obanliku local government area of Cross River State. The chi-square statistical technique was to test the hypothesis. The result shows that the calculated value of Chi-square (X²) is 24.4. Since the P-value of 21.03 is less than the level of significance (0.05), the null hypothesis was rejected and the alternate accepted. The study concludes that there is a significant relationship between access to clean water and sanitation and the attainment of Sustainable Development Goal 6 in Cross River State, Nigeria. it recommends the need for more commitment on the part of government and international donor agencies in expanding access to clean water and improved sanitation in Nigeria.

This study aims to underscore the relevance of pre-existing resilience experiences within communities affected by socio-political violence in Colombia, particularly in the context of developing effective risk management practices and enriching the CBDM model. This research employs a qualitative design, incorporating a multiple case study approach, which integrates a comprehensive literature review, in-depth interviews, and focus groups conducted in two Colombian communities, namely Salgar and La Primavera. The community of La Primavera effectively harnessed community empowerment and social support practices to confront socio-political violence, which evolved into a form of social capital that could be leveraged to address disaster risks. Conversely, in Salgar, individual and familial coping strategies took precedence. It is concluded that bolstering citizen participation in disaster risk management in both communities and governmental support for community projects aimed at reducing vulnerability is imperative. This study reveals that capabilities developed through coping with the humanitarian consequences of armed conflict, such as community empowerment and practices of solidarity and social support, can enhance community resilience in the face of disasters.
