Abstract:

This article describes initial testing of an instrument designed to provide evidence of cultural competence among health care providers and staff. The Cultural Competence Assessment (CCA) instrument was based on a model describing cultural competence components (fact, knowledge, attitude, and behavior). Content and face validity were confirmed through expert panel review, subject feedback, and field-testing. The CCA was administered to an interdisciplinary health care team in a community hospice setting. Preliminary findings suggest that the CCA performed well. Internal consistency reliability for the scale was 0.92. Construct validity by factor analysis demonstrated that 25 items had loadings above 0.42. Construct validity was supported with a significant correlation to the widely used Inventory for Assessing the Process of Cultural Competence among Health care Professionals (IAPCC). Validity also was supported by significant differences between individuals with different educational levels and prior diversity training. The CCA is a promising tool to measure cultural competence in populations with a wide range of educational levels and backgrounds.

Abstract:

Women’s empowerment is a driving concept in gender and development scholarship. This scholarship often engages quantitative indices of evaluation that are unable to account for culturally specific meaning and nuance that shape local understandings of empowerment. Recent efforts within the field of international development are attempting to create methodological mechanisms for capturing this nuance. This study employs one such method, Community Concept Drawing (CCD), in rural villages within Kenya, Senegal, and Nepal. Findings indicate significant differences between the field sites in the local conceptualization of empowerment. Cross-examination of site-specific data yields an understanding of how cultural norms and values shape local perceptions of empowerment in ways that are critical for research that engages gendered understandings. Furthermore, such analysis is critical to a more accurate understanding of the locally specific context of gender inequity.

Abstract:

Abstract Health education research emphasizes the importance of cultural understanding and fit to achieve meaningful psycho-social research outcomes, community responsiveness and external validity to enhance health equity. However, many interventions address cultural fit through cultural competence and sensitivity approaches that are often superficial. The purpose of this study was to better situate culture within health education by operationalizing and testing new measures of the deeply grounded culture-centered approach (CCA) within the context of community-based participatory research (CBPR). A nation-wide mixed method sample of 200 CBPR partnerships included a survey questionnaire and in-depth case studies. The questionnaire enabled the development of a CCA scale using concepts of community voice/agency, reflexivity and structural transformation. Higher-order confirmatory factor analysis demonstrated factorial validity of the scale. Correlations supported convergent validity with positive associations between the CCA and partnership processes and capacity and health outcomes. Qualitative data from two CBPR case studies provided complementary socio-cultural historic background and cultural knowledge, grounding health education interventions and research design in specific contexts and communities. The CCA scale and case study analysis demonstrate key tools that community–academic research partnerships can use to assess deeper levels of culture centeredness for health education research.

Abstract:

This article explores ethical issues raised by parenting interventions implemented in communities in low- to middle-income countries (LMICs) with rural, subsistence lifestyles. Many of these interventions foster “positive parenting practices” to improve children’s chances of fulfilling their developmental potential. The practices are derived from attachment theory and presented as the universal standard of good care. But attachment-based parenting is typical primarily of people living Western lifestyles and runs counter to the different ways many people with other lifestyles care for their children given what they want for them. Thus, such parenting interventions involve encouraging caregivers to change their practices and views, usually with little understanding of how such changes affect child, family, and community. This undermines researchers’ and practitioners’ ability to honor promises to uphold ethic codes of respect and beneficence. Support for this claim is provided by comparing positive parenting practices advocated by the United Nations International Children’s Emergency Fund (UNICEF; with the world health organization [WHO]) Care for Child Development (CCD) intervention with parenting practices typical of communities with rural, subsistence lifestyles—the most common of lifestyles worldwide and largely observed in LMICs. As UNICEF has a considerable presence in these countries, the CCD intervention was selected as a case study. In addition, parenting interventions typically target people who are poor, and the issues this raises regarding ethics of fairness and justice are considered. Recommendations are made for ways change agents can be sensitive to the living conditions and worldviews of communities, and, thus, be appropriately effective and ethically sensitive to the diverse needs of different communities.

Abstract:

PurposeThis paper aims to review the concept of clustering and to examine both mature and newly evolved natural ethnic entrepreneurial business clusters in Melbourne, Australia.Design/methodology/approachPhenomenological methodology was employed in this research. This qualitative research technique examines life experiences in an effort to understand and give them meaning. This method is seen to be appropriate as the study is investigative and explores the historical development, maintenance and growth of ethnic entrepreneurship clusters.FindingsBox Hill has evolved into a second Chinatown in Melbourne through natural ethnic entrepreneurial business cluster. The key features of these entrepreneurs are high educational and professional competence; focus on hard work and persistence; independence and sense of freedom as the key driving force; maintaining cultural linkage with countries of origin; almost no assistance from government agencies; succession or exit is not a major issue; and strong belief in providing employment and making a contribution to society.Practical implicationsThe ethnic Chinese entrepreneurs in Box Hill as well as in CBD Melbourne's Chinatown and the Chinese community at large realize that they needed to be socially participative and politically active. Through active participation in local politics, the ethnic community members are able to improve and provide more services and facilities to the community. As a result, the cluster becomes bigger and serves better the social needs of the community members, ethnic as well as non‐ethnic group members.Originality/valueThere is a paucity of literature on ethnic entrepreneurial business clusters that seem to be a growing feature of many cities such as Melbourne, Sydney, Vancouver, Los Angeles and other cities in the western hemisphere. This paper investigates this phenomenon in Melbourne.

Abstract:

The new context of the Psychology of Sustainability and Sustainable Development has reached the attention of the scientific community in recent years, due to its comprehensive approach aimed at enhancing the sustainability of interpersonal and intrapersonal talent, as well as of groups and communities. In this scenario, research on employee cross-cultural adjustment (CCA) is considered a key theme in human resource management. It is known that psychological support in the host country may alleviate distress and facilitate the integration of the expatriate workers. However, there is a lack of research investigating expatriate adjustment as an antecedent of the perceived organizational support. The aim of the study was to investigate the relationship among cross-cultural adjustment (CCA), perception of organizational support (POS), work-related stress (WRS), and innovation, considering these factors as a part of a unique innovative framework. A cross sectional study was performed using a sample of 234 expatriate workers of a multinational organization. Data were collected through a monitoring survey for the assessment of work-related stress risk factors of their expatriate staff. The results showed a positive correlation between CCA, POS, and innovation. On the other hand, a negative correlational effect of CCA and WRS, CCA and POS on WRS, and POS and WRS was found. Finally, POS was found to be a significant antecedent of CCA. These findings have implications for both international human resource management researchers and practitioners.

Abstract:

The idea of living streets has recently evolved and is currently being considered in urban planning and development for cities. The main purpose of the living streets concept is to provide safe access for all types of traffic, thus focusing on the overall sustainability of a city. This study investigates the characteristics of urban arteries in Peshawar’s central business district (CBD) from the perspective of the living streets concept to form a basis for policy measures that can be adopted to improve the CBD. The study hypothesizes that the living street infrastructure in the CBD does not accommodate the needs of various users (shoppers, residents, employees and those visiting for recreation). A field survey, including an observational survey and questionnaire, was conducted to identify and analyse basic public infrastructure in the CBD. Issues such as noise, air pollution, litter, a lack of appropriate public transit and pedestrian infrastructure, and poor traffic management were discovered. Strong dissatisfaction was recorded when the respondents were asked about current pedestrian and on-street parking arrangements. The field survey also found that the current pedestrian arrangements were insufficient for pedestrian needs, and the absence of street furniture discouraged community engagement in the study area.

Abstract:

The new home of the National Hockey League’s (NHL) Edmonton Oilers opened in 2016. This publicly financed, CAD 613.7 million arena was built in downtown Edmonton, Alberta. The arena and its broader entertainment district were designed to ‘revitalize’ Edmonton’s inner city that was already home to the majority of the city’s homeless population. The spatial transformation of Edmonton’s inner city was an example of what geographer Neil Smith referred to as ‘The New Urban Frontier’. Using Pierre Bourdieu’s theory of practice, this article explores how the local music community reacted to downtown gentrification through songs by punk bands Latcho Drom, Rebuild/Repair and Audio/Rocketry, along with rapper Cadence Weapon. This article assesses a series of reactions ranging from supportive and promotional to critical and resistive. By showing how musicians engaged in the debate over development, this article creates a template for assessing processes of gentrification, through the relationship between professional sport, media and music. It analyses the role of cultural production in the continued process of gentrification, future developments in cities and who belongs in the new urban landscape. In doing so, this article suggests the embodiment of a punk habitus by agents negotiating various fields in Edmonton and beyond.

Abstract:

In Asia, while the postgraduate training in psychiatry employs the World Psychiatric Association (WPA) core training curriculum for psychiatry as a standard course, some adjustment to the course is required for the unique demographic and sociocultural characteristics of its region.From the small group work in the 14th course for the academic development of psychiatrists (CAD), organized by the Japan Young Psychiatrists Organization (JYPO) in 2015, young psychiatrists form Indonesia, Japan, Philippines, South Korea, Taiwan and Thailand agreed that the core psychiatric curriculum must include both general and psychiatric knowledge which are fundamental to clinical practice and continuous learning. General knowledge consists of knowledge management, academic skills, epidemiology, research methodology and statistics, evidence-based medicine, bio-ethic and medicolegal issues, professionalism, and medical anthropology, while psychiatric knowledge incorporates basic science, diagnostic assessment skills, etiopathogenesis, pharmacological and non-pharmacological treatments, disease prognosis, and mental health promotion and prevention. Moreover, the curriculum for junior psychiatric residents has to be composed of courses from various departments that encourage them practice in holistic care and multidisciplinary approach including emergency medicine, internal medicine, neurology, pediatrics, community based medicine, anesthesiology, radiology and palliative care. For senior psychiatric residents, the training program should consist of in-depth psychiatric knowledge, general psychotherapy concept and basic skills, and free elective subjects.Since Asia is different from Europe in terms of large population, shortage of psychiatrists, aging society, racial and cultural diversity, and high risk of natural disasters; the postgraduate training in psychiatry in Asia should focus on the subjects regarding health economy, geriatric psychiatry, cultural and trans-cultural psychiatry, ethnopsychopharmacology, disaster psychiatry and mental health. Furthermore, the cooperation among Asian countries should be promoted in order to initiate knowledge exchange and research collaboration. These could contribute to the sustainable advancement of Asian psychiatry and mental health in the future.Disclosure of interestThe author has not supplied his declaration of competing interest.

The teaching English website of the British Council identified six different levels of Teacher from “starters” to “experts” suggested that each requires a different kind of professional development. And “professional development” the key to meet today’s educational demands. As we know language is a social and cultural activity, Teachers must remain abreast of the exciting and promising development in the teaching strategies. To live to the challenge of globalization which is in the line with the era of information economy. A quality human capital comes from a quality education process. We live in an age of information explosion; teachers need to continuously update ones knowledge and skills. The field of curriculum in general and second language education in particular have witnessed tremendous changes over the years. A quality human capital comes from a quality education process. Hargreaves and Fullan (1992, P. IK), “the teacher is the ultimate key to educational change and school improvement”. Teachers do not simply implement the curriculam. They define and refine the curriculam they interpret and transform the curricular in a way that makes learning more manageable for the Learners. The need for Teacher Professional Development is one’s evaluation of one’s own classroom performance and getting feedback and keep updating, the slow learners and learning disability. To increase knowledge of the teacher (a) referencing (b) research (c) optimum reading (d) awareness (e) elements. ‘Regarding Pedagogy (a) Inquiry learning (b) creative and critical thinking (c) problem solving.

Abstract:

Culture has a critical role in transforming localities into more attractive places to work and invest. Cultural activities and facilities significantly affect the development of the physical environment of cities. But what does it all mean for the local residents of the neighbourhoods? How do they feel or participate in cultural activities organized for them? The overall aim of this study has been to evaluate participation effect on the development of Riga’s neighbourhoods during the year of The European Capital of Culture. During the research, the authors have used the mixed research methodology. The qualitative analysis of the Riga 2014 programme has been done based on the qualitative interviews with the artistic team, project managers and entrepreneurs from Riga’s neighbourhoods; besides, a detailed analysis of Riga 2014 programme events has been performed. The main findings show that cultural life in the neighbourhoods is among the most important factors determining the satisfaction with life by the neighbourhoods’ inhabitants. Personalities, not infrastructure have a crucial importance in the development of neighbourhood cultural life. Cultural activities in neighbourhood should be carried out in close cooperation with the stakeholders from different sectors. This can bring to sustainable and long‑term effects.

The study was conducted by distributing 81 questionnaires to surrounding community in the area. The results of the MDS analysis in dimensions of the attractions are in the good category of 80.57. Dimensions of access, infrastructure, community support for tourism development, public attitudes towards tourists are in the good categories of 84.64, 80.39, 81.87, and 75.62. Dimension of community participation and benefits perceived by the community is in the unfavorable category of 44.69% and 46.29. Community involvement needs to be increased so it can increase tourist visits. The sustainability of Setu Babakan as a cultural tourism area is maintained because the existence of it can really be felt by the local community.

Abstract:

Cultural identity of a society is the identity of a community, covering all aspects of their lives. The study of the cultural identity of a society is always exciting and vital because cultural identity is constructive and never grows naturally. In the community of Pendalungan in Jember, cultural identity is initiated and designed because it is needed for community development. This article will explore the concept of Pendalungan and the benefits that can be obtained from the chosen identity. A cultural construction approach, with a descriptive-qualitative method, can be utilized to achieve that goal. The research data were obtained from interviews with several Jember community members from various socio-cultural backgrounds, as well as from various previous studies related to the discussion of this issue. Significant findings from the research show that the cultural identity of Pendalungan is suitable to be used as a platform for strengthening the development of arts and culture of Jember community because of its multicultural nature. With this identity, various ethnic groups in Jember can live in harmony and develop a tolerant attitude without losing their respective traditional particularistic identities. People from various ethnicities can live side by side under the umbrella of Pendalungan cultural identity because what is strengthened and highlighted is not their differences but excellence. Pendalungan people believe in cultural relativity, namely that no culture is higher or lower than another.

Abstract:

Several studies have revealed that park green space (PGS) plays a crucial role in improving residents’ quality of life and promoting sustainable development of the environment. However, rapid urbanization and population growth have led to an inequitable supply and demand for PGS, especially in high-density cities, which has been widely recognized as an important environmental justice issue. However, few studies have evaluated the equity and sustainability of PGS in high-density cities based on multi-scale. This study developed a framework to explore the spatial equity of PGS and its coupling coordination degree (CCD) with socioeconomic deprivation (SED) based on a multi-scale approach (pocket park, community park, and comprehensive park), then analyzed the spatial correlation between PGS and CCD. The results showed that: (1) The overall supply of 3-scale PGS does not meet residents’ demand for PGS resources in the study area and the urban center has the highest demand for PGS. (2) Among the three-scale PGS, the comprehensive PGS has the strongest supply capacity, but it also has the most severe supply–demand mismatch. (3) Although the service radius of pocket PGS is smaller than that of community PGS, the supply of pocket PGS is higher. (4) More than 95% of the studied area lacks coordination between PGS and SED development. (5) The subsystem that has the greatest spatial correlation with CCD in pocket PGS and comprehensive PGS was the number of configurations, while that in community PGS was the spatial arrangement. This study not only provides a theoretical reference for conducting research on PGS equity in high-density cities, but also provides a novel perspective on the sustainable, coordinated development and planning of urban PGS system.

Abstract:

Image processing is an important step in every imaging path in the scientific community. Especially in neutron imaging, image processing is very important to correct for image artefacts that arise from low light and high noise statistics. Due to the low global availability of neutron sources suitable for imaging, the development of these algorithms is not in the main scope of research work and once established, algorithms are not revisited for a long time and therefore not optimized for high throughput. This work shows the possible speed gain that arises from the usage of heterogeneous computing platforms in image processing along the example of an established adaptive noise reduction algorithm.

Abstract:

A growing number of writers in community psychology have called for re-claiming the radical impetus that inspired the development of the field. In this article we describe a program of work facilitated by a community cultural development agency that uses community arts practice to create, promote and improve opportunities for participation, network development, and empowerment in rural Western Australian communities. The program of work we describe in this article sits within a broader systematic effort aimed at social change in a specific geographic region of Western Australia, and reflects a particular commitment to challenging the continuing social exclusion of Aboriginal people in postcolonizing Australia. Informed by writing within community and liberation psychologies, we discuss three community arts projects and highlight the key concepts of participation, power/empowerment and situated knowing in our examination of community cultural development as participatory methodology. We emphasize the iterative and generative nature of arts practice and argue that community cultural development practice is often aimed at both instrumental as well as transformative outcomes. We suggest that the transformative dimensions require a critical theoretical lens to help explicate the operations of power and coloniality in the micro settings of community practice.

Abstract:

The study of the dynamics of the socio-cultural development of rural local communities under the conditions of multipolarity, multidirectional and asynchronous changes in their socio-economic space, from the point of view of the systemic approach, makes it possible to present the complex processes of rural social and cultural development. Based on the typology of functions that determine the basic strategies for the socio-cultural development of rural communities, a simulation model is proposed for analyzing the dynamics of the socio-cultural development of the village. The model has a sufficiently high degree of adequacy, verification and contributes to the formation of scientifically based conclusions. A simulation-based agent model enables the transition to the simulation of socio-cultural phenomena and processes, and the construction of their forecast scenarios.

Abstract:

“A Community of Common Destiny” (CCD) has been an important concept introduced and promoted by the Communist Party of China and the Chinese government for over the past decade. Through the conceptualization and comparison between two previous conceptual worldviews of Chinese civilization named here “China’s World” and “China and the World”, this article seeks to place the CCD concept in its proper historical context and proposes that its contemporary development and promotion among the Chinese leadership signifies a fundamental advancement in Chinese civilization’s worldview referred to here as “China in the World”. This implies a new global mission for the future of the world, inclusive of China’s growing contributions concerning international responsibility and reciprocity (Xi, 2017b).

Abstract:

Community development is an issue of continuing interest not only because of the need for more successful economic development within our cities, but because the survival of a significant portion of African-American poor is at stake. Community development planning seeks to improve all aspects of community life, including health, education, crime prevention, employment and training, business development, family stability, and housing. Community economic development must arise from our black churches, historically black colleges and universities, African-American officials, business leaders, teachers, and health and welfare professionals. In the real world, where group welfare functions are interdependent, only two possible long-term outcomes are both just and stable: win-win or lose-lose. Consequently, there is a need for significant Pareto improvements in all social programs. There are roles for both race-specific and race-neutral policies because long-term Pareto improvements can result both from programs such as targeted minority employment and training as well as color-blind policies that encourage legislators to forgo the coffers of the gun lobby and control the sale and use of guns. The paper will focus on the historical logic of public policy as reflected in housing policy, financing mechanisms under community development corporations, and the issue of an urban underclass. By reestablishing its commitment to the inner cities, the government can redress the onerous impact of two and a half decades of social and economic neglect and private investment retrenchment.

Abstract:

The full involvement of local communities in the tourism sector, not only benefits them and the environment in general, but also improves the quality of the tourism experience. Projects imposed from outside and motivated by the pursuit of rapid economic growth often override local needs, conditions and resources, and result in unacceptable environmental, social and cultural costs. Local involvement is crucial to sustainable and appropriate development, which meets the needs of the local people and safeguards their natural and cultural environments. Thus a local development strategy is essential, especially in disadvantaged areas and countries.

Abstract:

Purpose: This study explores the combine synergy of China’s concept of “Community of Common Destiny (CCD),” and the Fourth Industrial Revolution (IR4.0) in alleviating humanitarian crisis/response and multiculturalism challenges of the time. The last decade has witnessed heightened resistance against accepting migrants and refugees especially in Europe and U.S and many other countries in general, exacerbated by nationalist politicians. These challenges are multifold, ranging from failed assimilation processes, insufficient funds for humanitarian course, aids dependent oriented solutions, weak solidarity, and xenophobia… etc. all these are evidence of moral backdrop across the world. Even though tools like the “Community of Destiny” and IR4.0 can well provide tangible opportunities for a better performing humanitarian crisis/response, revolutionize the integration policies that would accommodate the varied cultures and be beneficial to all in the society, these tools are misinterpreted, less understood, applied independently to problems it cannot handle on its own, thus rendering them less productive. Method: This study employs a qualitative approach consisting of literature review and official document analysis. Literature review consists of a comprehensive assessment of scholarly academic publications from competing perspectives in the fields of political philosophy, multiculturalism, IR4.0, international humanitarian organization websites, Business corporate blogs, Community of Common Destiny and international relations theories. The document survey is mainly related to the policy documentation/ speeches output of Chinese leaders, related international organizations, study reports, as well as media reports. Results: The study reveals that multiculturalism (cultural integration) challenges and humanitarian crisis/ response can be alleviated if the tenets of CCD are fully incorporated with IR4.0 opportunities. To this end, the CCD and IR4.0 offers more opportunities for states and companies to recruit and manage workers at distant locations. Skilled workers can offer their services at the comfort of their homes or localities (i.e. taking work to skilled worker), offering more in-training (victim skill capacitation and job access, and construction of more professional/educational facilities), reform their employment standards to include multicultural background checks, allowing refugees and migrants to be the solution to their problems, while states enact more relaxed refugee work permit policies. Further, disaster affected communities under study must benefit from collected data and analytic results that can help improve their living standards and guard against future catastrophes. Importantly, communities should be routinely trained on first-aid disaster management techniques. With CCD in mind and employing IR4.0 opportunities, humanitarian action responses would stand a better rating in terms of time efficiency and maximization of its ever scarce resources while increasing the number of donor partners. Conclusion: the CCD and IR4.0 are great opportunities for both humanitarian crisis/response action and declining multiculturalism. Though the CCD has been received with scepticism, the overall idea of promoting a harmonious society (community), where everyone shares equally is achievable in the IR4.0 era. Critics have pointed out that CCD’s weakness lies in the implementation and enforcement loopholes. However, the concept originality was designed as an international instrument for willing states to adhere without any coercion and function as it is the case with other international instruments such the Rome Statue where some major powers are not signatories. The CCD and IR4.0 opportunities open a new era for humanity and the world system must adapt to the changing humanism.

Abstract:

Nepal is endowed with the majestic Himalayan ranges, including Mt. Everest, which is 8848 m, is the world’s highest mountain peak. Nepal is renowned world-wide as a prime tourist destination due to its unparalleled natural beauty; diverse bio-diversity; ethnic, lingual and social diversity; and historical and cultural wealth. There are many lakes, rivers, mountainous areas, museums, national parks, historical places, greenery forests, cultural heritages which become attractions to the tourists in Nepal. Rural setting is one of the most potential areas to promote the rural tourism where tourists can have opportunity to observe the rural setting, culture, life-style, social relationship, hospitality etc of rural people in Nepal. So, the study has developed the community oriented rural tourism development model covering the stages of development. The study was conducted in Lamjung, Tanahu and Nawalparasi districts among the home-stay operators, tourist experts and other tourism related stakeholders. In-depth interview was done with the respondents to collect their opinion about the best model of rural tourism. The study has developed the Community Oriented Rural Tourism Development Model (CO-RTDM) which has explained the seven stages of development.

Abstract:

The basic idea expounded in this presentation is refining of linkages between development and culture. A semantic point has been raised to the effect that the word “dimension” may be a limiting factor. In this context traditional flourishing of arts and culture has been related to the village community with reference to the institutional changes brought about by breaking up of village communities. The role of tradition has been defined in terms of technological changes. The relevance of traditional values particularly in the context of conservation concerns has been duly stressed. In yet another sense, the institutional implications of cultural dimension have been concretely illustrated in terms of Indian experiences and formulations. In an elaborate reference to “Plan of Action relating to Cultural Perspectives” as a part of “New Education Policy,” various concepts and their concretisation in grassroot schemes and projects have been illustrated. The initial clashes that result from technological impacts have been highlighted though at the same time it has been suggested that over a period of time cultural perceptions of a people will overcome tensions produced by technological changes.

Abstract:

The integrated development of new-type urbanization and tourism is of great significance for social development. Based on panel data of nine provinces in the Yellow River Basin from 2010 to 2019, models such as entropy TOPSIS, the super-SBM model, the coupling coordination degree model, the GM (1, 1) model, Tobit regression, and other methods were used to explore the spatiotemporal evolution characteristics and influencing factors of the coupling coordination degree (CCD) between new-type urbanization and tourism resource conversion efficiency (TRCE) in the Yellow River Basin. The results show that, during the research period: (1) The development index of new-type urbanization in the Yellow River Basin showed a steady upwards trend and TRCE was generally stable. (2) The CCD between new-type urbanization and TRCE in the Yellow River Basin fluctuated and rose with an average annual CCD of 0.716, indicating an intermediate coordination stage, and showed an overall spatial distribution pattern of “midstream region > downstream region > upstream region”. The center of gravity of the CCD shifted to the northwest and the type of CCD jumped rapidly to a better stage, especially in the midstream region. From the perspective of future trends, the coupling and coordination relationship between the two major systems will continue to be optimized from 2019 to 2025 and the midstream region will maintain a high growth level. (3) The industrial structure, cultural media investment, science and technology investment, and communication level are important factors that affect the CCD of new-type urbanization and TRCE in the Yellow River Basin. The CCD of new-type urbanization and TRCE in the Yellow River Basin tends to be better as a whole, but the regional differences are obvious. Therefore, in the process of policy implementation, special attention should be given to the understanding of regional differences to avoid policy failure. This is very important to the Yellow River Basin and equally important to other regions.

Abstract:

Cultural tourism has a significant contribution to the economic growth of the community. The study aimed to (1) Establish the residents’ awareness of cultural tourism for community development in terms of (a) arts, (b) customs, and (c) traditions 2.) Determine the benefits of cultural tourism in Kilicao along the variables mentioned above (3) analyze the challenges encountered by the residents in developing the cultural tourism in the community, and 4.) Recommend programs to promote and develop cultural tourism in the community. The study employed the qualitative research method, and the focused-group discussion and interview were used to understand the fundamental reasons, opinions, and motivations. The findings revealed that the residents have expressed enthusiasm to actively participate and cooperate to promote cultural tourism in the community; there were benefits to the residents; the residents have encountered challenges, such as lack of knowledge, financial constraints, and accessibility issues; and programs were being offered towards community development. As recommended, tourism planning for the promotion should be done through community awareness programs. The local government unit should also allocate funds with the help of the different agencies for its sustainability.

Abstract:

This paper highlights ways of achieving socio-cultural development in Kabylian region in Algeria. This Amazigh (Berber) community has suffered much because of its mountainous geographical position and because of its marginalization by authorities for ideological reasons. These conditions or circumstances have reinforced the idea of self-reliance among members of this community and led to the emergence of the spirit of belonging, solidarity and cooperation amongst them. People depend on their culture and territory to organise themselves, to overcome their problems, and to develop their community. In fact, villagers are moving away from purely governmental development to people-centred development.
