Russian anarchist and anti-war movement in the third year of full-scale warAntti Rautiainen
Anarchist group ANA Regensburg hosted my online-presentation on 16th of May 2024, in which I discussed tactics of anti-war activism in Russia, and reasons why the anti-war movement has not been able to make an impact to change the course of events yet. Cases of anarchists repressed for anti-war activities are presented, as well as strategies of support for political prisoners, and modest successes in supporting their struggles.

design and implement innovative,

to destination planning;
strengthen tourism-related social and

improve zoning practices and controls in

promote innovative and green

10. Destination management plans have been created or are being
created by donor organisations in collaboration with MOHT in
key destinations:
◦ Bagan – JICA
◦ Inlay –MIID
◦ Kayah State - ITC/CBI
◦ Mandalay region (including Amarapura, Mingun etc) – MoU to
be signed with La Sapienza
However there is a mixed record on:
◦ government ownership
◦ stakeholder engagement/participatory planning
◦ implementation
There are no Destination Management Organisations (DMOs)
resulting in:
◦ minimal coordination between the Destination Management
efforts
◦ efforts not nationally driven or managed.
Destination Planning and Management:
Update since 2013
11. Key Objective 3.3: Improve Zoning In Tourism Destinations pg. 48 Master Plan
All tourism infrastructure projects will seek to avoid and minimize negative impacts
on the physical environment and respect the cultural landscape. The planning
process will include mapping and zoning of sites and destinations to ensure the
protection of key habitats and natural and cultural assets. Zoning regulations will
allocate land for infrastructure and commercial activities, including hotel
construction. Participatory processes will underpin this approach and ensure
developments are aligned with the Responsible Tourism Policy, and comply with EIA
and SIA standards and safeguards. Activities include a status review of hotel zones.
Capacity building programs for destination managers are central to the success of
zoning and to enhance stakeholder understanding of planning concepts and
processes.
Destination planning and management
includes the question of ‘zoning……’
12. Key Objective 3.3: Improve Zoning in Tourism Destinations pg. 48
Activity 3.3.1 Review the status of hotel zone development (e.g., Mandalay,
Bagan, and Inle): review progress and issues with hotel zone development
within context of Myanmar’s responsible tourism policy; develop a planning
framework that harmonizes hotel zone planning with national objectives to
protect natural and cultural heritage and promote the well-being of local
residents.
Today’s workshop is intended to contribute to this debate
Key Objective 3.3: Improve Zoning in Tourism Destinations pg. 48
Activity 3.3.2 Prepare zoning plans for key tourist destinations: using
participatory processes prepare base maps for the destinations and
determine areas with important cultural and natural attributes in need of
special protected status; determine suitable land for development of
infrastructure and commercial activities; prepare rules and regulations for
each zone; review and approve the zoning plans; develop and disseminate
information and educational materials about the zones.
13. ‘Zoning’ is not the same as creating a ‘Zone’
Zoning describes the control by authority of the use
of land, and of the buildings thereon. Areas of land
are divided by appropriate authorities into zones
within which various uses are permitted.
Zoning is necessary, including for protection of
cultural heritage
