Summary: Sustainability and peace have long been considered intrinsically interrelated, yet there is a lack of specific focus on the sustainability-peace nexus in academic and policy discourses. Systemic approaches and international scientific collaboration are essential for capturing the dynamic interactions between peace and sustainability and addressing issues at the intersection of the two fields.

Summary: This study analyzes the mechanism of gate opening deformation in flexible metal-organic framework materials using the phonon and adsorption-induced structural transformation concept and focuses on ZIF-8 structure as an example. The conditions leading to the gate opening transformation in ZIF-8 are determined based on structure-related quantities, and the energetic landscape of the deformation process is analyzed using the grand thermodynamic potential of adsorption. The conclusions are generalized to other flexible ZIF structures with the same topology.

Summary: The purpose of this study is to review the asset measurement techniques for zoo animals. Zoo animals are a zoo's most valuable asset, and their measurement is important for financial reporting. Currently, there is no internationally recognized accounting framework for measuring the value of zoo animals. The study aims to provide a review of reporting requirements, investigate asset measurement and financial reporting practices, and identify commonly used alternatives.

Summary: This study examines the interaction between domestic politics and foreign policy in the gendering of the peace agreement between the Colombian government and the FARC. It analyzes the domestic pressures driving the formulation and incorporation of a gender perspective, and how this gender dimension influences the Colombian government's foreign policy strategy. The goal is to understand the entanglement of domestic and international preferences in the gendering of the peace agreement.

Summary: A common drug policy of forced eradication in source countries leads to unintended consequences. This paper investigates the largest crop substitution program in Colombia and finds that it has resulted in increased violence against social leaders. The study contributes to our understanding of the unintended consequences for local communities in the field of antidrug policies.

Summary: This article discusses the importance of Transitional Justice (TJ) in addressing colonial harms and their long-lasting effects, using the case study of the Havana Peace Accord of 2016 in Colombia. The authors highlight the issues of land, ethnicity, and gender related to Spanish colonialism that have affected the peace process. They argue that peace processes should take into account ongoing harms caused by colonial projects, providing structural justice for the broader victims and protecting the specific goals of the peace process.

Summary: The Colombian military's skepticism towards the 2016 peace agreement has fueled a narrative of betrayal, positioning the military as victims and garnering support from various sectors. This has resulted in the defense of Colombia's long-standing militarized national security approach.

Summary: This study implemented streaming telemetry of optical metrics within open hardware ROADMs, achieving sub-second updates of high-resolution spectrum scans and a sustained telemetry stream of the full C-band with sub-GHz resolution. The telemetry streaming was implemented over a standard IETF-defined protocol (YANG Push) in collaboration with open-source software and device-specific code, using a common TSDB and visualization dashboard as the telemetry collector. The Open Network Operating System (ONOS) SDN controller was extended to act as a telemetry receiver.
