This study tries to deal with knowledge collaborative approach of relationship learning which is a strategic perspective entails of creating collective knowledge to demonstrate the role of inter-organizational learning through project-based organizations (PBOs). This helps in enhancing the abilities of non-governmental organizations (NGOs) in metropolitan areas witnessing duality in the legal framework under which these organizations operate, and how such circumstances affect NGOs operating in autonomous regions to maintain long-term linkages with their partners to achieve sustainable development. Based on a survey conducted from 146 respondents, we have illustrated that inter-organizational learning was significantly associated with building the capacity of NGOs to maintain long term linkages with international partners, as well as its significant relation-ship with obtaining sustainable performance. Moreover, the value creation has appeared to have a partial mediation role between inter-organizational learning and sustainable performance while legal framework seems to have a significant moderator role in hindering the relationship between interrelation learning and value creation.

The term “metaverse” refers to a virtual reality setting where users may engage in sustained and immersive interactions with other users and digital information. The metaverse offers new potential for entertainment, education, commerce, sociability, and creativity; therefore, it is anticipated to play a significant role in the future of the digital economy. However, the metaverse presents additional difficulties in resolving conflicts that can develop between its users, producers, and providers. Intellectual property rights, privacy, contract enforcement, fraud, harassment, and cybercrime are some of the concerns that may be raised in these conflicts. The existing legal system for settling these conflicts is disjointed and insufficient since it does not consider the metaverse’s unique qualities and complexity. This study investigates the present legal framework to provide fair and effective conflict resolution in the metaverse. It then establishes tenable fundamentals within the context of scientific and legal foundations. and propose a theoretical model named Hybrid Legal Framework for Metaverse Dispute Resolution (HLFMDR).
