🏫 +10% Public Special Needs Schools in Japan
From 2013 to 2022, Japan saw a steady increase in special needs education schools, with public institutions rising from 1,021 to 1,111 and private schools slightly increasing from 14 to 15. This growth aligns with government initiatives aimed at fostering inclusivity, such as the "Project for the Promotion of the Special Needs Education System." These efforts reflect Japan's commitment to providing tailored support and creating a convivial society for all learners.
🛢️ 30% of South Korea’s Power Generated From Coal
In 2022, South Korea's power generation heavily relied on coal at 32%, nuclear at 29%, and LNG at 27%, totaling nearly 90%. The government aims to transition to a more sustainable energy mix, targeting 20% from renewables by 2030 and 70% carbon-free energy by 2038. Key initiatives include expanding solar and offshore wind capacity, alongside a commitment to reduce fossil fuel dependence and enhance nuclear energy's role in the national energy strategy.
💊 >30% of Australian Telehealth Users From Inner Regions
In 2021, telehealth adoption in Australia varied by region, 29% in major cities, 30% in inner regional areas, and 22% in outer regional, remote, and very remote areas. The Australian government supports telehealth through initiatives like the National Digital Health Strategy and the Telehealth Strategy 2021-2026, aiming to enhance accessibility and integrate digital health services, especially for rural communities, ensuring equitable healthcare delivery across the nation.
