    Dear Readers, Researchers, and Contributors,

    We're thrilled to bring you Volume 2, Issue 2 (July–December 2025) of the International Journal of Convergent Research (IJCR). This issue builds on the solid foundation established by our previous issues in our ongoing effort to promote high-quality, interdisciplinary scholarship that addresses important academic and social issues today.

    The rapid pace of technological change, climate uncertainty, and changing socio-economic structures have highlighted the need for convergent and cross-disciplinary research. IJCR serves as a place for the intersection of science, technology, management and social research to create knowledge that is both theoretically strong and practically useful.

    This issue contains a range of research and review articles in areas such as AI-based genomic surveillance for public health control, speech-based information retrieval systems, climate change impact on coastal communities in South Asia, digital financial transformation via UPI, and organizational behaviour within Islamic banking contexts. Collectively, these articles represent our goal of transcending traditional disciplinary boundaries to produce integrative views of global and regional challenges.

    We express our sincere appreciation to the authors for their scholarly rigor and confidence in IJCR as a venue for sharing their research. We appreciate all the reviewers for their time, critical feedback, and commitment to upholding the academic standards. We also extend our thanks to the editorial and technical staff of IJCR for their ongoing efforts to help produce the journal and publish each issue promptly.

    As IJCR continues to grow and gain academic recognition, we extend our invitation to researchers, practitioners, and students in various disciplines and locations to contribute to our work (as a contributor, reviewer or reader) so that we can all help to create meaningful dialogues around research and build innovative, diverse, and forward-thinking knowledge systems.

    We hope this issue encourages you to think critically about your work; stimulate your desire to conduct further research, and stimulates you to work collaboratively with others in your research endeavors.

    Warm regards,
