The present article studies the importance of social, political and economic empowerment of women belonging to self-help groups (SHGs) in achieving sustainable development. The study was conducted in the five districts of Punjab that includes Patiala, Bhatinda, Amritsar, Faridkot and Fazilka. Around 500 respondents were selected to fill the questionnaire comprising 100 respondents from each of the five districts. Data analysis and hypothesis testing have been done using IBM SPSS and AMOS. The results, obtained through structural equation modelling, reveal that women have become more authoritative socially and financially, yet there is still scope for upgrading with respect to political empowerment. Sustainable development can indeed be achieved through empowerment of rural women.

COVID-19 imposed a lockdown on all economic and social activities and contemporary organizations adapted to the challenge by shifting to a remote working model and individuals struggled for work–life balance. The purpose of this article is to systematically review the literature on work–life balance during a pandemic and comprehensively analyse the quality of work–life problems that are associated with it. Twenty-seven articles published between 2019 and 2021 were selected for review from Scopus and Web of Science (WOS) based on the research questions framed in the study. A four-step process suggested by Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines was used to perform the scoping literature review (SLR). The findings of the review highlight the emerging gender inequalities with a focus on how this phenomenon has evolved during a pandemic. The article makes an important contribution by reporting gender disparity concerning each gender issue related to work–life balance raised during COVID-19. The review also synthesizes the finding of previous studies by identifying the top contributing authors, most influential journals, and co-citation analysis and cluster analysis. Additionally, content analysis and cluster analysis based on multiple correspondence analyses were performed that confirm the two important clusters highlighting gender issues. We conclude the review by proposing various research directions.

This study explores the expansion of the green bond market in emerging countries and global trends, drawing on data from international institutions. It notes that six emerging markets drive 90% of issuances, with China leading by issuing $67.5 billion in green bonds in 2022, up 54% from the previous year. The research also addresses how advancements in autoimmune disease treatments and nutrition debates impact investment and pharmaceutical sectors. A better understanding of nutrition's role in autoimmune diseases leads to innovative therapies and investment opportunities, with potential for significant health and economic benefits. This underscores the importance of combining financial strategies and healthcare advancements to enhance societal well-being.
