Key note address at Public Sector Capacity Building for Strategic Implementation of Tourism Public-Private Partnerships (PPP) in the CLMV region.Vientiane, Lao PDR. 3 – 5 May, 2017
We tend to think of tourism in terms of competition among countries. Institutions like the UNWTO and World Economic Forum encourage such thinking by focusing most of their attention on country level statistics and measures. But that is not how tourists think. In general, when tourists say that they are going to another country, they really mean that they are going to one or more destinations within that country. When I take a trip, I plan to travel somewhere, where I will engage in some activities. Those activities will take place in a specific location. In a specific destination or community. This is our focus today. To understand that economic development from tourism – at least, that which is tangible to our people – happens at the local destination level. Not at the central or national level.
The presentation introduces the tourism circuit approach to local destination planning, an approach adopted by the Local Governance Support Program for Local Economic Development (LGSP-LED). Using LGSP-LED project sites as examples, the presentation gives an overview of tourism circuit planning and development as a framework for enabling the growth of more inclusive, sustainable, and competitive tourism destinations.

Tourism is a strategy for country to increase its income. Digital technologies are currently used to help improve tourism, for example with information about tourist areas through the website or Mobile Apps. Database is required as the basic infrastructure for implementing system when to support tourism In this research, we discussed about the database model that can stored tourism data. Tourism databases such as warehouses are rich in information about tourism. Tourism information can be in the structured or unstructured form. Database development is an important part of enhancing development supported by digital technology. In this research, ontology is applied for database development and it produce the ontologies that could be utilized for tourism.

Decarbonising homes in cities in the Netherlands: a neighbourhood approachOECDregions
OECD presentation on decarbonising homes in cities in the Netherlands: a neighbourhood approach.
About 90% of homes in the Netherlands depend on natural gas for heating. The Netherlands has made a commitment to phase out natural gas by 2050. To achieve the goal, the Netherlands has rolled out a natural gas-free pilot programme in 66 neighbourhoods. These neighbourhood pilot projects enabled municipalities to learn what it takes to start energy transition. Based on a city survey carried out across 26 local governments, key findings from this report call on national and local governments joining up their efforts to take place-based measures.

Up the Ratios Bylaws - a Comprehensive Process of Our Organizationuptheratios
Up the Ratios is a non-profit organization dedicated to bridging the gap in STEM education for underprivileged students by providing free, high-quality learning opportunities in robotics and other STEM fields. Our mission is to empower the next generation of innovators, thinkers, and problem-solvers by offering a range of educational programs that foster curiosity, creativity, and critical thinking.
At Up the Ratios, we believe that every student, regardless of their socio-economic background, should have access to the tools and knowledge needed to succeed in today's technology-driven world. To achieve this, we host a variety of free classes, workshops, summer camps, and live lectures tailored to students from underserved communities. Our programs are designed to be engaging and hands-on, allowing students to explore the exciting world of robotics and STEM through practical, real-world applications.
Our free classes cover fundamental concepts in robotics, coding, and engineering, providing students with a strong foundation in these critical areas. Through our interactive workshops, students can dive deeper into specific topics, working on projects that challenge them to apply what they've learned and think creatively. Our summer camps offer an immersive experience where students can collaborate on larger projects, develop their teamwork skills, and gain confidence in their abilities.
In addition to our local programs, Up the Ratios is committed to making a global impact. We take donations of new and gently used robotics parts, which we then distribute to students and educational institutions in other countries. These donations help ensure that young learners worldwide have the resources they need to explore and excel in STEM fields. By supporting education in this way, we aim to nurture a global community of future leaders and innovators.
Our live lectures feature guest speakers from various STEM disciplines, including engineers, scientists, and industry professionals who share their knowledge and experiences with our students. These lectures provide valuable insights into potential career paths and inspire students to pursue their passions in STEM.
Up the Ratios relies on the generosity of donors and volunteers to continue our work. Contributions of time, expertise, and financial support are crucial to sustaining our programs and expanding our reach. Whether you're an individual passionate about education, a professional in the STEM field, or a company looking to give back to the community, there are many ways to get involved and make a difference.
We are proud of the positive impact we've had on the lives of countless students, many of whom have gone on to pursue higher education and careers in STEM. By providing these young minds with the tools and opportunities they need to succeed, we are not only changing their futures but also contributing to the advancement of technology and innovation on a broader scale.

12. Tourism support by ESIF: key messages
q A sizeable demand for tourism-related projects and ESIF
financing (across categories and thematic objectives)
q ERDF has the highest number of tourism related projects
◦ In some countries (e.g. Germany and France) there is a balance
between ESF and ERDF in terms of numbers.
q Funding does not necessarily match the contribution of
tourism to the EU economy
◦ Transversal nature of tourism makes it very difficult to identify all
projects, which contribute to tourism objectives
◦ GDP growth and employment are not the only considerations in
programming EU funds and should be balanced with other objectives
q Difficulties finding publicly available information on the
number/volume/relation to tourism of ESIF projects
14. Main effects illustrated by case studies
Considering the various activities and types of beneficiaries, the impacts
of tourism activities are equally diverse. Examples:
Economic effects Environmental effects Social effects
• Local and regional economic
development (GDP)
• Direct/indirect employment
• Development of a broader skill
set and supporting labour
mobility
• Enhanced competitiveness of
local SMEs
• Increased visibility of regions,
brands and investment
possibilities
• Diversification of the economic
sectors of local communities, e.g.
providing a link between the
fisheries industry and tourism
• Sustainable transport
• Increased energy
efficiency
• Increased awareness
about nature and
environmental protection
• Urban revitalisation and
community building
• Increased social engagement
and inclusion
• Improved governance and
administrative capacity
• Fostering of a common
identity and ETC
• Positive health effects
15. Looking at tourism as “strategic booster”
q Tourism is (can be) a ‘booster’ for other sectors and activities –
thus tourism projects can be viewed as a vehicle to achieve
economic, environmental, and/or social effects
q An emerging tourism development model, grounded on the ability
to build on strong local innovation and entrepreneurship capabilities
16. A range of emerging options in this regard
q Reflect on the strategic potential of tourism-related activities of
multiple regions can provide an effective framework for
developing strategic cooperation within/across territories
q Including tourism in the Smart Specialisation Strategy (S3) is
an important way to promote tourism-related projects and to
promote innovation, influence change, facilitate access to funding
q And yet the approach foreseen depends on local history,
capacity, opportunities – some authorities chose to support
tourism as a stand-alone objective, while others included tourism
as a transversal objective, i.e. there is no general rule
q Work across departments, sectors and stakeholders!
