“…Shcherbakova et al (2019) note the level of adaptation at (r=0.52; p<0.01) and link it with the influence of external factors, such as social pressure, the influence of parents. In turn, Marimuthu et al (2021) show the high correlation between the level of resilience and the degree of adaptation of the individual to changes in the social environment.…”

The problem of social adaptation of students in a multicultural environment has always been a concern of pedagogical science. With the development of telecommunication technologies, educational institutions face with the issue of finding effective forms of interaction between students. The aim of the article is to theoretically and empirically develop an integrated concept of studying the resilience of foreign students in a multicultural environment during distance learning. Methods: survey, methods of remote collection and processing of information (GOOGLE Forms), Self-Determination Test; K. Riff’s Scale of Psychological Well-Being, statistical methods of data processing, methods of analysis of the reliability of survey. The correlation between adaptation and resilience of foreign students who participated in the study is (r = 0.45; p <0.01). In turn, the resilience index is 81.92%. According to the study, students show high and medium rates of resilience during distance learning in the process of adaptation to a multicultural environment. It has been found that most students do not have difficulty adapting to distance learning due to the coronavirus pandemic (COVID-19). Thus, it was found that the process of adaptation of students in a multicultural environment during distance learning allowed maintaining a high rate of resilience, which indicates its effectiveness. Further research should be aimed at studying the development of professional competencies among students of narrow educational and professional training. It is also necessary to develop in detail the methodology for implementing the model of adaptation to distance learning.

“…Accordingly, this special issue published seven articles in the area of sustainable recovery in supply chains. The first article analyzed different strategies for green recovery in the context of the mining industry of India and found that strategies for eco-innovation practices, environmental awareness and education and training are the three primary strategies for green recovery (Marimuthu et al , 2021). The second article explored 13 critical sustainable recovery measures for transportation systems and found that efficient traffic management, sustainability-focused policies, sensitization of stakeholders, financial support and adoption of 4 R practices are important for a sustainable recovery in freight transportation systems (Dwivedi et al , 2021).…”

Green recovery through sustainable supply chains: implications for Asian nations Statistics show a substantially increasing trend of unexpected and catastrophic events that supply chains have experienced in the recent past. For example, 1,438 epidemics have been reported by the World Health Organization (WHO) between 2010 and 2018 (Hudecheck et al., 2020). The impacts of these significant outbreaks are more severe for their unique features, such as the long-term existence of the disruptions, ripple effect on other activities, i.e. disruption propagations, and high uncertainty and simultaneous impacts on supply, demand and infrastructure (

“…The pandemic has arisen various issues regarding environmental sustainability and confronted various measures taken by the industrial sector toward achieving overall sustainability. To this theme, Marimuthu et al (2021) contributed to exploring the attention that must be taken when addressing COVID-19 and sustainability issues in India’s mining sector by identifying 14 significant repercussions of the outbreak and 10 green recovery solutions. However, the issues regarding sustainability are apparent in India even before the occurrence of the outbreak.…”

Reduced consumption pattern (Bakalis et al , 2020; Eggers, 2020; Ivanov, 2020b; Javaid et al , 2020; Knight et al , 2020; Marimuthu et al , 2021) – As a consequence of economic recession induced by the pandemic outbreak, income and revenue of the individuals have been declined. Moreover, due to lockdown measures, people’s movement has been ceased and forced to be in-home throughout, enabling a confined use of only essential products and consequently reducing the demand for ancillary products.…”

Purpose The catastrophic state of the COVID-19 pandemic outbreak has seized off all the operations along with the globe. It has not only distressed the socio-economic structure of the world but also mounted enormous pressure on the governmental bodies to save the lives of the people. Despite this, severe impacts of the same have been observed on the small and medium manufacturing enterprises (SMME) practices, resulting in the economic downturn. The purpose of this study is to facilitate the SMME’s with circular economy (CE) practices to overcome the negative impacts of the COVID-19 outbreak on their supply chain (SC) operations. Design/methodology/approach The presented work identified seven critical impacts as criteria of the novel COVID-19 pandemic on the Indian SMME and seeks to identify the relief measures in the CE paradigm by identifying 13 prominent enablers to CE as alternatives. Experts’ opinions have been engaged to detect CE enablers’ proficiency to overpower the pandemic impact through a questionnaire-based survey. The obtained data have been clustered and analyzed through a hybrid approach of entropy weight method and grey relational analysis to find an organized ranking of the enablers. Findings Current work spotlights the SMME’s losses due to SC disruptions and declined consumption patterns. The waste augmentation during the pandemic era has also been grouped in this study, primarily associating with the SC’s waste generation. The result of the performed analysis shows that the CE enabler “waste reduction and its transformation into a resource (E1)” have achieved the highest rank among all the considered enablers, governing a higher demand toward reusing waste for better handling the post COVID era state of affairs. Originality/value The presented study aimed to suppress the pandemic impact and generate anticipation of the CE concept, which might help the managers and policymakers identify its urgent need to achieve a stable and resilient SC system in a post COVID period. Presented work is peculiar, aiming to accelerate the CE adaption with green material usage in the industrial sector to suppress the present miserable condition and to achieve industrial and social sustainability for a better-foreseen future.
