Social Issues Sample Clauses
A Social Issues clause sets out the parties' commitments and expectations regarding social responsibility, ethical conduct, and related standards within the scope of their agreement. This clause may require compliance with laws on labor practices, non-discrimination, human rights, or community engagement, and can obligate parties to implement policies or reporting mechanisms addressing these concerns. Its core function is to ensure that business operations under the contract align with agreed social values and legal requirements, thereby mitigating reputational and legal risks associated with social misconduct.

Social Issues. Alternative 1, there would be temporary, localized disruption of transportation systems and agricultural practices. A temporary increase in traffic during construction may create more congested traffic conditions for residents. The use of temporary levees over three road crossings and one railroad crossing would briefly restrict access while the temporary concrete sleeper slab or fill is placed and removed. The noise generated during construction activities could disrupt adjacent social events (see Section 5.2.8). Levee Alternative 1 has the potential to reduce the cost burden of homeownership of residents in the city of Amenia by qualifying residents and businesses for an exemption from or purchase of subsidized flood insurance.

Social Issues. In a total of 68 sources, 16 of them referred to “Social Issues”, which indicates the growing relevance of game jams and games as tools to create people’s awareness and reflection on these subjects. In study 52 (▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, 2017), strategies for addressing social justice issues were used, with 12 games produced by teens who experienced some type of social injustice (for example, racial). After the production of the games, a street exhibition called “Street Arcade” was also part of the strategy as a way to induce dialogue within the community about the topics covered by the games, giving the young people the power to stimulate civic participation: “The project compelled the teens to recognize and actively shape their relationship with their own community through choosing the themes of the art games we co- created and through the face-to-face conversations that they initiated” (▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, 2017:20). One of the games, called “Can You Serve and Protect?” explored the tensions between the Chicago Police Department and the African- American communities it serves, where the player is a white officer. But not only regarding social justice, but game jams have also been used to communicate and learn science, as study 61 (▇▇▇▇▇▇ et al., 2021) explores. The article explores how two theories - Systems Thinking and Learning, and Model Building for Learning - can be two positive tools for engaging young people as producers of games related to complex and scientific themes. A workshop was conducted with four participants aged between 13 and 17, during which they developed a board game about water pollution. The authors described the ideation process, where the participants employed Model Building to understand the theme they were working on before designing the game, simplifying it in scientific terms and applying it to the game design itself. They considered how to use the game to disseminate knowledge and explore the phenomenon of water pollution. The theory of Systems Thinking and Learning is evident in the way in which young participants, in creating the game, first had to understand the concept of pollution as a system, breaking it down into several factors that had different relationships and connections with each other. Only through these two processes could the participants understand the theme enough to translate it into a successful game capable of transferring knowledge.
Social Issues. Walking and cycling are seen as leisure time activities due to the strong health campaigns in recent years and are not seen as modes of transport. Families usually have at least 2 cars as they are a status symbol. Transport is considered as a waste of time. Car drivers are in first place in the traffic; cyclists and walkers are seen as traffic obstacles and are not considered as equal traffic members.
