Abstract:
The neglect of endogenous strength is one of the reasons for the lack of sustainability in mountainous rural development and tourism development in China at present. How to incorporate the opinions of villagers in the tourism development process led by the government and other external entities is the main focus of this article. Based on the fieldwork of two typical mountainous villages and a previous rural development evaluation method, this article proposes the villager-satisfaction-based evaluation method for tourism village development, covering rural settlement construction, village esthetics, and economic and social development. “Villager satisfaction” is a crucial indicator obtained by objectifying the subjective opinions of villagers. Finally, the evaluation method was applied in the form of a questionnaire in two villages. The experimental results are correlated with the tourism development patterns of the two villages, verifying the feasibility and effectiveness of the evaluation method. It is expected that this evaluation method will become an effective communication medium between non-professional villagers and the professional tourism development process, thereby promoting the sustainable development of rural areas in the future.

Abstract:
Traditional villages carrying farming civilization are valuable historical and cultural heritage of China, and also the key to rural revitalization. Under the tide of modernization, Xihe Village, located in the mountains, is relatively intact as a traditional village. Under the guidance of the traditional village protection policy, the village has achieved remarkable results in protection and development. However, as the main body of village protection practice, local villagers still face corresponding problems in the protection and development of villages and the participation of relevant policies. These problems are manifested in residents' relatively low understanding of the protection policies of traditional villages; The government does not fully cooperate with the local villagers in carrying out cultural activities, and the village culture is not fully explored. Village infrastructure is still lacking, which is not conducive to retaining villagers to live and develop in the village. Therefore, in order to strengthen the participation of villagers in the protection of traditional villages, the government should strengthen the publicity of the protection and development policy of traditional villages. When carrying out cultural activities, the government should strengthen the cooperation with the villagers and explore the various cultural resources in the villages. Improve the infrastructure in the village, and provide better material guarantee for the life development of local villagers.

Abstract:
The construction of scenic villages can not be done without the active participation of the local residents and it is of great significance to analyse the residents’ participation willingness and its related factors. On the basis of drawing experience from the present research results, we, through house-to-house questionnaire surveys and sampling interviews, survey residents in five villages of Hangzhou city about their willingness to participate in the construction of scenic villages themselves, participation paths and their attitudes toward external participation, and adopt the methods, such as exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and confirmatory factor analysis(CFA), to verify three hypotheses(H1, H2, H3). The study finds that: (1) the general participation willingness of village residents is comparatively high, but the participation willingness degrees of different village groups are quite different. According to the degree of participation willingness, the sequence from high to low is: village cadres > farmhouse and rural lodging operators > college village officials > staffs employed in the village enterprises > ordinary villagers > resident cadres. (2) There are relatively big differences among the villagers’ recognition degrees of different participation routes in the construction of scenic villages. The highest difference significance of the correlation is the multi-family joint loans (1.160). The lowest is to publicize, encourage and actively promote the construction of scenic villages (0.936). (3) The verification results are in favor of three hypotheses that the resident identity of the villagers has a significant impact on their willingness to participate, the path of participation, and their attitudes towards the external participation. According to the research results, the following suggestions are made: improve the awareness of the related subjects, especially the villagers by increasing the publicity; take measures to attract the active participation of the new business entities; open up the input channels to motivate the villagers; improve the public participation degree of the scenic villages’ construction by coordinating the relation among investment subjects and guaranteeing the villager’ interests etc.

Abstract:
Landscapes have multiple functions relating to natural preservation and cultural inheritance, which are fundamental factors for tourist development. Particularly in villages, rural tourism is primarily based on the rural landscape. However, peri-urban villages face complex conflicts of urbanization and ruralism, in which landscapes are dynamic and need synergistic plans and management. Thus, this research contributes to a better understanding of comprehensive landscape planning integrating natural and cultural dimensions in peri-urban villages. Taking as a comparison studies in two peri-urban villages, Heshu village and Pu’an village in the Yangtze River Delta in China, the research mainly adopted qualitative methods of document analysis, in-depth interviews and field observation. We found that local features and interactions with nature are both stressed in the village landscape plans but with different strategies. Firstly, Heshu village’s landscape plan intends to reproduce eight scenes described in famous local poetry, while Pu’an village’s plan intends to develop local traditional customs of bulrush craft. Secondly, the detailed landscape design of green-way and blue-way systems in Heshu village is people-oriented, while landscape design in Pu’an village is experience-oriented in relation to creative tourism. Finally, it is essential to consider both the interests of local villagers and tourists in the process of identifying, preserving and enhancing the locality of rural landscapes.

Abstract:
As a crucial part of China’s development strategy, the redevelopment of urban villages and the redevelopment willingness of villagers have attracted considerable scholarly interest. However, the literature to date has neglected the effect of the geographical location of urban villages on the redevelopment willingness of villagers. The purpose of this study is to examine the influential factors of the redevelopment willingness of urban villagers, especially with regard to geographical differences and their effects. Based on prospect theory and 1083 questionnaires administered in 45 selected urban villages in Guangzhou, we use the ordinal logistic regression model to explore the influential factors behind villagers’ redevelopment willingness in inner villages (<15 km from the city center), urban fringe villages (15–40 km from the city center), and suburban villages (>40 km from the city center). The results show that in inner villages the confirmation of residential land rights can significantly increase redevelopment willingness, but in urban fringe villages the number of stories in dwelling houses significantly decreases the willingness. Further, a high level of villagers’ trust in the government, market enterprises, and the village collective each has a significant positive impact on the redevelopment willingness of villagers in urban fringe villages. However, only trust in the government and market enterprises have significant positive impacts on redevelopment willingness in the inner villages and only trust in the village collective is significant in this regard in suburban villages. The effects of geographical differences imply that China’s redevelopment policy should be applied in a differentiated way based on the geographical locations of urban villages.

Abstract:
Village development so that it can become a tourist village is the right program to stimulate the village's original income and introduce the potential of each town. This study aims to explain the influence of the tourism village program on the village's economic development and culture preservation. The method that the researcher uses is the library research method. The results of this study are that several tourist villages can improve the village economy. Still, some tourist villages have been unable to improve the village economy. This is due to the lack of stakeholder roles in socializing or providing understanding to the community in tourist villages to develop the potential in their villages; as a result, some village communities are unable to innovate. Cooperation between stakeholders in tourism development is key to developing tourist villages. The utilization of local culture by a town can be an attraction to foreign and local tourists. So it is essential to coordinate and train rural communities to develop their villages and introduce the cultural diversity that Indonesia has.

Abstract:
Background and Aims: This study employs a grounded theory approach to identify and analyze the key driving factors behind the successful transformation of Chashan Village into a rural tourism destination in Fuchuan County, Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region. The research aims to provide valuable insights into grassroots governance, community engagement, and cultural development as essential elements of successful rural transformation. Methodology: Employing a grounded theory approach, this study provides a deep, empirical investigation into the transformation process of Chashan Village, offering practical implications for rural revitalization strategies. It underscores the importance of inclusive community engagement, effective governance mechanisms, and cultural preservation in fostering sustainable rural development. Results: Our analysis reveals three distinct stages in the transformation process of Chashan Village: village regeneration (2014-2017), village development (2018-2021), and rural tourism formation (2022 to present). These stages reflect the village's transition from a hollow micro-economy to a vibrant rural tourism economy and then to a comprehensive village and town economy. Dynamic differences in driving factors are observed across the three transformation stages. During the village regeneration stage, elite governance, villager participation, and market resources are key drivers. In the village development stage, institutional governance, villager collaboration, and enhanced tourism experiences play pivotal roles. Finally, during the formation stage of villages and towns, community creation and public construction emerge as critical driving factors. Throughout Chashan Village's transformation and development journey, inclusive grassroots governance, active participation and cooperative behavior of villagers, and local construction of characteristic culture have played pivotal roles. These factors have not only promoted the village's in-depth development but also offered valuable lessons for rural revitalization efforts worldwide. Conclusions: The findings of this study contribute to a better understanding of the dynamics of village transformation and offer insights that can inform policy-making and community-led initiatives aimed at promoting rural revitalization globally.

Abstract:
As a fast-growing industry sector, tourism has become an essential economic basis for villages. Law No 6 of 2014 has broadened the opportunity for villages to develop. A tourism village is considered one of the community empowerment options that can improve the economy and the village's development. Moreover, with all their uniqueness, tourism villages are also regarded as capable of eliminating urbanization's negative impact. Of 83.820 villages in Indonesia, 2% of them are tourism villages. This study took a sample of 55 tourism villages selected by the purposive sampling method and then described the sample based on five typologies, namely the settlement configuration, the classification of the village, the accessibility, the tourist attraction, and the category of the tourism village. The data used in the study were collected from various sources, specifically, those taken from official documents, credible websites, and previous studies to describe the typology owned by villages to become fast-growing tourism villages. The results show that, generally, tourist villages in Indonesia are dominated by rural tourism villages; however, urban tourism villages have a faster development. This study also points out the determining aspect of tourist village development.

Abstract:
Villages are important components of agricultural heritage sites, and their tourism models significantly impact ecosystem service value (ESV). This study takes Zhenglong Village (culture and tourism integration), Ziquejie Village (farmstay type), and Jizhai Village (sightseeing type) with different tourism models in the Ziquejie Terraces heritage site as the research objects. Firstly, a single dynamic land use model and a land use transfer matrix were used to reveal rural land use changes driven by three different tourism models. Secondly, changes in ESV in the three villages were assessed with a valuation model. Finally, the welfare per unit area of villagers obtained from ecosystem services (ESs) was calculated. The results showed that: (1) From 2006 to 2022, the built-up area in the three villages gradually increased, primarily converting from farmland. Zhenglong Village experienced the smallest degree of change in both farmland and built-up areas. (2) The total ESV in Zhenglong Village increased by 0.35 times, the highest among the three villages. (3) Zhenglong Village saw the largest increase in welfare per unit area of villagers, from 82,551 CNY in 2006 to 111,785 CNY in 2022. Therefore, adopting a culture and tourism integration model in this heritage site is most conducive to conserving and enhancing the rural ESV, improving villagers’ welfare, and promoting the sustainable development of villages and heritage sites.

Abstract:
Bone Bolango is one of the districts that has experienced many village and sub-district expansion processes. This expansion process changes the village's potential data. Village potential is the carrying capacity for developing villages in order to improve community welfare. In order to accelerate village development, it is necessary to group villages according to their characteristics so that development is more focused and on target. The aim of this research is to group villages based on indicators of village potential so that groups of villages that have the same characteristics can be obtained, as well as to find out the best method for grouping villages in Bone Bolango Regency. The research results show that the optimum cluster for grouping villages in Bone Bolango Regency based on village potential indicators is the cluster using the ward method because it provides the smallest Xie-Beni index value compared to the fuzzy c-means method. The optimum number of clusters is three clusters. Cluster 1 has high average characteristics consisting of 57 villages, cluster 2 has low average characteristics (except livestock production) consisting of 94 villages and cluster 3 has characteristics of large area and high food production consisting of 9 villages.

Abstract:
This study centres on the village of Greyton, near Caledon in the Western Cape. It investigates the contemporary and historic changes in its population, residence patterns, relationships and economic activity. It focusses particularly on the effects of the implementation of the Group Areas Act in the village in 1969 and the change from an apparently integrated agricultural settlement to a highly differentiated holiday and retirement resort. This thesis questions the validity of the term "community" within the constraints and contradictions imposed by the establishment of Group Areas. It examines the idea of visible and invisible villagers in the context of separate development and, in the light of the changes which have taken place, it considers the relative importance of a progressive attitude in social and economic planning as opposed to a policy of preservation of the original character of a rural village.

Abstract:
Les lébou du Sénégal constituent une communauté originale en milieu urbain. Ceux qui vivent dans les villages du sud appartiennent certes aux maitres historiques de la presqu'ile du cap vert mais leur poids politique est moindre en raison de leur implantation tardive. En effet, le terme lébou -qui est une création coloniale- ne désigne pas un groupe mais une entité sociale fondée sur une parenté supposée. On peut alors en parler comme une tribu ayant bien des points communs dont on retiendra essentiellement l'orgueil et l'hostilité à l'égard des autres. Outre la formation d'un espace hybride, la croissance périphérique de Dakar fait apparaitre une urbanisation à deux vitesses ou se distinguent deux catégories de banlieusards : d'un côté, les autochtones qui refusent le progrès en ligne droite, de l'autre, les "néo-citadins" qui cherchent par tous les moyens à réussir leur aventure urbaine. Cette situation explique en partie le grand nombre d'occasions manquées par les lebou. Ces paradoxes ou énigmes peuvent être appréciés à travers trois exemples : - le déclin des activités traditionnelles essentiellement lié au "refus" d'investir alors que l'expansion urbaine crée un marché potentiel, - le mauvais usage des capitaux tirés de la vente des terres, - la faiblesse de la représentation lébou dans les activités nouvelles comme l'industrie. On s'étonne alors de voir que les lebou continuent à jouir d'une relative influence malgré leur faible poids économique. Ils le doivent essentiellement à leurs "parents" de Dakar, mais on note ça et la, une remise en cause de l'hégémonie d'antan avec notamment la superposition d'un pouvoir politique d'état au pouvoir politique traditionnel. L'anthropologie du quotidien et l'apprentissage urbain font découvrir toute l'africanité de la ville qui s'exprime à travers les multiples réponses populaires à la sous-intégration et ou à la misère urbaine :"système d","micro-géo-strategies". L'aménagement qui doit avoir pour objectif de réduire la ville à la société et non l'inverse apparait alors comme une entreprise commune à laquelle doivent être associées les populations qui ont une perception propre de leur espace
The Lebou form an original community living in an urban environment. Although those who live in the villages along the southern coast belong to the great historic authority rulers of the Cap vert peninsula, they have a smaller political influence. Actually, the word lebou, a colonial formulation, does not designate a group but a social entity based on an assumed consanguinity. So we can refer to the Lebou as a tribe whose members have several features in common, and among them we shall retain pride and hostility towards outsiders. Besides creating a hybrid space, the periphery growth of Dakar generates urbanization at two levels two categories of suburb dwellers can be distinguished: on one hand, the autochthons that refuse any straight progress, on the other hand, the "neo-city dwellers" who try by all means to live a successful city experience. This explains in part why so many opportunities have been missed by the Lebou. These paradoxical and enigmatical facts can be appraised through three examples: - the decline on traditional activities mainly due to a refusal" to invest while urban growth creates a potential market, - the bad use of capitals drawn from land selling, - the small representation of the Lebou in new activities likes industry. We therefore wonder why the Lebou keep enjoying a relative local influence in spite of their small economic power. They owe it mainly to their relatives living at Dakar. But we notice here and there the questioning of the old hegemony particular through the superposition of state political power on traditional political power. An anthropology of everyday life and city experience help to discover all the africanity of the city. This africanity is expressed through the multifarious ways in which people respond to under-integration and or suburban poverty: "d system", micro- geo-strategies". . . Land management, which has as an objective to adjust the city to society and not the contrary, therefore appears as a common undertaking to which must take part populations who have a singular perception of their space

The existing coastal native Alaskan villages are facing the direct impacts of global warming, in particular due to disappearing ice sheets and rapidly thawing permafrost. The impacts ultimately result in erosion of the shorelines, flooding of the riverbanks, and destabilization of foundations - costing in billions of dollars in maintenance and replacement of homes and infrastructure. More importantly, they create imminent threats to lives of the natives and others that occupy the territory. Relocation has been favored by these villages under threats, but without a lead agency and a comprehensive vision, nearly all of the relocation plans have been delayed for nearly a decade by the lack of funding and the complex requirements from the various public and private agencies that cannot be complied or completed by the villagers. The US Government Accountability Office (GAO) had provided a report that identified 31 villages that were under the threats of global warming in 2009. The report further identified four villages, Shishmaref, Kivalina, Newtok, and Shaktoolik, that called for relocation of the entire village. Today, these four villages still remain at their current locations and continue to be challenged by the threats caused by flooding and erosion without any major interventions. This thesis project proposes a new relocation village at a resource-rich area eleven miles south from Shishmaref. Protected from the global warming factors, the new village defines its territory with a peripheral wind/snow fence that creates its own a micro climate by sheltering the village inside from the harsh wind and snow all year around and turns it into positive renewable energy through wind turbines and solar panels. The village's center, shared by the four villages mentioned above, is located at the intersection of the major infrastructure components of the airplane, water barges, and natural resources - all funded by the new collective funding mechanism that challenges the current linear funding mechanism that fails to individually relocate each village.

Abstract:
The phenomenon of "cancer villages" has emerged in many parts of rural China, drawing media attention and becoming a fact of social life. However, the relationship between pollution and disease is often hard to discern. Through sociological analysis of several villages with different social and economic structures, the authors offer a comprehensive, historically grounded analysis of the coexistence between the incidence of cancer, environmental pollution and villagers’ lifestyles, as well as the perceptions, claims and responses of different actors. They situate the appearance of "cancer villages" in the context of social, economic and cultural change in China, tracing the evolution of the issue over two decades, and providing deep insights into the complex interactions and trade-offs between economic growth, environmental change and public health.

Abstract:
AbstractUrbanvillages are a unique product of China’s rapid urban expansion. They provide a new way of life sustained by property rental income for local villagers. More importantly, urban villages provide cheap accommodation for millions of rural migrant workers in most large cities. Recently, with the increasing demand for land by commercialdevelopers and public projects, urban villages have become the targets for redevelopment. This chapter uses a case study village in Beijing as an example to assess the social and economic impacts of urban village redevelopment on both the original local inhabitants and migrants in rented accommodation. The case study village went through a very long and complicated redevelopment process from 2004 to 2017 involving different stages of demolition and relocation. It provided a rare opportunity to evaluate the effects on the local population, both pre- and post-redevelopment. The study involved several field visits, observation and interviews with village residents. It shows that urban village redevelopment offered no positive benefits for migrant workers who often lost their homes to demolition. For local villagers, redevelopment and relocation into new flats may improve their living conditions. However, most suffer from the loss of long-term economic and income generation opportunities. Moreover, the new property rights for the replacement flats confer no additional rights of citizenship for the relocated villagers who remain ‘second-class citizens’ within Chinese cities.

AbstractThe advent of mass tourism has endowed traditional villages with multiple identities as heritage sites, communities, and tourist attractions. As hosts, local villagers have begun to introspect and reevaluate the village environment that was once a part of their everyday landscape, giving rise to new spatial perceptions. As the primary stakeholders in village communities, indigenous inhabitants’ perceptions, preferences, and identifications with village spaces hold significant significance in preserving rural characteristics and sustaining village vitality. Using Hongkeng Village in southwest Fujian Province, China, as a case study, this study investigated local villagers’ perception of traditional village daily life space and activity paths from three dimensions: cultural cognition, emotional preference, and behavioral activities through observation, questionnaire surveys, and cognitive maps. The results show that villagers generally have high cognitive and low emotional perceptions of the exhibition space and the former staging space; they have high emotional perceptions of the neighborhood interaction space and the collective memory place; the activity path spreads from home to the surrounding area, and there are gender differences in the scope of activities. The study suggests that the development of the tourism industry has often overlooked historical context and the spirit of places. It emphasizes the need to rekindle the identity of “home” within the Tulou clusters of Hongkeng Village while maintaining a balanced distribution of public facilities and enriching residents’ leisure lives. This study is expected to provide insights for improving the living environment of tourism-oriented villages in China.

Abstract:
Traditional villages are an important carrier of traditional Chinese culture, and about 35.28% of China's population lives in villages. Because of the loss of local characteristics in public places and over-urbanization of villages, villagers' place attachment needs are not satisfied. Taking Futian town in Jiangxi province as an example, this paper measures the degree of place attachment of residents of different age groups to elements of the village public landscape by using a place attachment questionnaire and villagers' interviews, explores the factors of differences in attachment perceptions of residents of each age group and explores the characteristics of village public landscape that trigger local attachment of local residents.

Abstract:
As a primary material carrier of Chinese farming civilization, traditional villages have the dual attributes of villages and heritage. The traditional village cannot be regenerated if they were destroyed. Therefore, it is urgent to find a suitable development model and way out in the context of high-speed urbanization. The proper planning of traditional villages mainly covers two aspects of protection and development for a long time. The preparation and management of various types of planning are also intertwined and even contradictory. “Multiple-planning” is an effective way to solve the conflicts between different administrative departments and different types of planning in the current planning process, and also provides a practical planning idea and method for the future of traditional villages. Firstly, the research analyzes the existing planning types of traditional villages and points out that because of the difference of objectives, strategies, and executives, there come three common problems: The protection measures are not easy to implement; The development strategies are unsustainable; The planning and implementation are not connected. These problems directly affected the implementation of planning. They not only hinder the effective conservation of cultural heritage but also restrict the revitalization of the village's economic development. Furthermore, the research discusses the necessity and feasibility of “Multiple-planning” in the conservation and development of traditional villages and proposes a conservation and development planning framework for traditional villages from the perspective of “Multiple-planning.” Finally, the research is taking a traditional village conservation and development planning of Liugou in Yanqing District of Beijing as an example. Accomplished valuable planning in the perspective of “Multiple-planning” through objective and systematic status analyzing, exceptional and feasible conservation planning, scientific and sustainable development planning.

Abstract:
The agricultural land around Shanghai is famous for its huge population and intensive cultivation. With the expansion of the metropolis, a large number of agricultural people have entered the city to work, and rural land has been abandoned1,2. In 2009, Kunshan City implemented a land transfer system, and 99% of the cultivated land was packaged for large scale farmers, and initially realized large‐scale operation3 . However, the large‐scale business model has gradually experienced problems such as predatory management, ecological destruction, and no sense of social responsibility. Through the establishment of agricultural land share cooperatives, Changyun Village took the lead in realizing the collective management of agricultural land, taking shares in the land, giving priority to paying dividends to the land, and paying wages to the farmers working in the cooperative. The peasants' enthusiasm for entering the city has become an important buffer for the migrants to work in Shanghai and surrounding village.It has increased the employment rate. At the same time, it has supplied green agricultural products to the city, passed on agricultural technology, and activated local communities. This article intends to analyse the correlation between several village share cooperative models based on Changyun Village and the large family farm contracting model of more than ten villages, and the satisfaction of villagers, combined with property rights theory, scale economy theory, and accounting cooperatives. Cost‐benefit, evaluate the effect of “long cloud-style” collectivization on revitalizing the surrounding villages of metropolises and assess the satisfaction of governments at all levels. Through field interviews and questionnaire surveys, the correlation analysis of village cadres and villagers' satisfaction was conducted. The government is optimistic about the role of the "long cloud model" in grassroots management and improvement of people's livelihood. Even if public finances are required to invest a large amount of money, it is necessary to strengthen the medical and social security of the villagers. The government is also quite satisfied with the Changyun model. At present, the economic benefits of the stock cooperatives have steadily increased. Although the growth rate is not large, the villagers have a strong sense of well‐being, and the village's ecological environment has been improved. In the future, the cost of the village will be reduced after the large scale operation, and the overall economic benefits will be improved. The future research direction will be how to solve the specific problems that plague the cooperative's production and operation, such as low rice prices and lack of high value added finishing facilities to continue to activate the surrounding areas of the metropolis and improve the satisfaction of the government and villagers.

Abstract:
This project examines the relationship between collective land management by villagers, the construction andimprovement of logistics and internet infrastructure, and the establishment and operation of e-commerce businesses in rural villages in Zhejiang, China. Zhejiang is the home province of Alibaba, China’s largest e-commerce and technology company. The research aims to investigate how the development of e-commerce influences rural life, and vice versa. The study focuses on villages that have undergone significant transformations due to their active engagement with e-commerce industries. These transformations have been facilitated by the support or negotiations with mega e-commerce platform companies and various government agencies. As a result, these villages have experienced noticeable increases in exposure, production efficiency, and overallland development.The research documents change in the rural landscape at regional, local, and human scales. It also explores the social dynamics among villagers, including mutual learning, imitation, cooperation, and competition. The project aims to gain a deeper and more nuanced understanding of how these dynamics impact the decision-making of villagers and local village leaders. This is achieved through on-site fieldwork, GIS analysis, literature review, and comparative case studies. The specific aspects of decision-making that are explored include the establishment of new industries, land use transformation, and the construction of infrastructure and communal service facilities. Additionally, the project investigates the current state and future impact of these new development projects. The goal is to promote equitable and sustainable development of urban-rural commons for the villagers who are experiencing these changes.

Abstract:
The rapid advancement of the digital age has significantly expanded the potential applications of digital twin technology. However, urban villages, characterized by low socio-economic status and limited access to digital twin technology. Additionally, Prior studies often overlook structural factors like inadequate planning and infrastructure, hindering efforts to improve urban village living conditions.Consequently, this study aims to investigate the implementation of digital twin technology to enhance the environment of urban villages and address issues such as outdated infrastructure and inadequate living conditions.The purpose of this study is to create a virtual model of an urban village (Nantou Ancient Town) using digital twin technology (Unreal Engine). The model will use 3D geospatial and data visualization to visually present the living conditions of urban villages, including buildings, population density, water supply and green space. The aim is to provide practical insights for enhancing the overall environment and improving living conditions in urban villages through targeted infrastructure improvements and environmental upgrades.Therefore, this research is of significant importance in improving the environment of urban villages and providing more opportunities for accessing digital technology. Furthermore, it highlights the potential of utilizing digital technology to enhance living conditions in urban villages, based on the premise of promoting balanced development of basic infrastructure in urban villages, and it also strengthens community inclusivity and sustainable development in urban villages.In conclusion, this research has promising prospects in advancing the field of digital improvement of living environments by exploring the widespread application of digital twin technology like the Unreal Engine, especially in areas where digital technologies are lacking, and addressing existing research gaps. By uncovering the potential of these technologies, this study has the possibility to enhance the well-being of urban village residents through the utilization of technology, drive innovation, and shape the future of digital living environments.

Abstract:
This research explores the farming landscape and village life in Kampos, a village on the Greek island of Tinos. Tinos is an Aegean island with a long history of agriculture. In Kampos, one of the oldest farming villages of Tinos, boundaries created by low stone walls and alleyways primarily define the farming landscape that permeates village life and its structure. The landscape appears semi-artificial, given the construction of countless rows of cultivation ridges and terraces. Boundaries on the island appear through texts, space, movement and habit, thus creating. a series of liminal spaces. They represent areas – or rather situations – allowing for multiple co-existing levels of interaction, which are both ambiguous and can be transformed through negotiation. Negotiation would not be possible without language and narrative: Language arises through communal metaphors, stories, and fictional beliefs that bind and connect a small community together in a farming landscape, a community that has retained a quality of life closely connected to nature, architecture, and private and public realms, all by exhibiting features that can be found in a contemporary way of living. Objectified and non-objectifiable boundaries – in relation to the villagers’ land, water, private and public spaces –, their absence, their negotiation, the life that flourishes in-between them, and their relationship to men and women, ownership, and bonding, are important aspects examined in research. The presence, the lack of, and the negotiation of these boundaries, all unfold through fictional stories, narratives and interviews of villagers from Kampos. Through these narratives, I argue that when boundaries are obscure or create an in-between space of negotiation and communication, when they become a liminal space, then a different situation of ownership and bonding arises. Here, the villagers claim their properties’ boundaries, and negotiate these and sometimes fall into conflicts. Conducting this research, I determined that stories created from the villager’s life, space, and landscape consist of a series of metaphors that define ‘dwelling’ in this part of the world, in this specific landscape, which has a contemporary way of living, but still connected with tradition and the past as an action mimetic of the present.

Abstract:
Despite the fact that we live in a country where the farmers' associations are created among the first on the Old Continent, and where one of the first Institute for Nature Protection is created, statistics warn us that the demise of several hundred Serbian villages and thus the emptying of strategically important areas of the state of Serbia today, is a serious development problem. In this paper an analysis of the rural, age and educational structure of the population, in rural areas of the Republic of Serbia, has been performed. The authors believe that the situation is not hopeless and point out that the sustainable development of the village is possible only if favorable local preconditions for it are met. Therefore, it is necessary to revive and institutionally expand the competencies of rural local communities as a form of local rural self-government in the Serbian folk tradition. Accordingly, decentralization and polycentric development are the main conditions for the renewal of the population and devastated parts of Serbia. Moreover, native networks and integrated rural development are models applicable through LAP in accordance with the characteristics of the area. Nowadays, it is necessary to raise people's awareness of the importance of rural survival and sustainable management of resources in agriculture, i.e. to breathe new life into rural areas, which would also be a motive for staying in the countryside.

Abstract:
Villages and their functions in the landscape have changed significantly, and the 21st century has brought with it a number of problems in the functioning of village settlements and the rural landscape. The aim of the paper is to analyze the role of the current village in the landscape and biodiversity in the landscape and to outline the possibilities of its functioning in this system and its further development. The work is processed mainly by means of the method of terrain and local surveys. The analysis shows that throughout the 20th century the possibilities of animal and plant move in the landscape decreased and diversity in the form of gardens, cemeteries, parks and other green formations was concentrated in settlements and their immediate vicinity. Contemporary villages and smaller towns have already had a relatively stabilized strip of greenery around them, which was created together with ensuring a quality environment (e.g., soundproofing or sun elimination). This, on the other hand, allowed animals that had not been common in settlements to move into villages. To our surprise, the villages become a treasure trove of biodiversity and the preservation of fragments of important habitats from previous stages of development. The care of intra-settlement greenery thus faces a new, as yet unknown, task - how to maintain and further develop this newly created biodiversity.

Abstract:
In some villages the use of wood cooking stoves accounts for more than three-quarters of total village energy use. Because of this the design of clean, affordable, and desirable cooking stoves can have a dramatic impact on human health and the local economy. Unfortunately, too often development projects fail. For example, an estimated 30% of water projects in sub-Saharan Africa have failed prematurely in the last 20 years, and only 10% of cooking stove programs started in the 1980s were operational two years after startup. Similar anecdotal evidence suggests a mixed record of success for other energy, infrastructure, health, and sanitation projects in the developing world. In part, these failures occur because of a lack of design questions and design methods to identify consumer need and preference during the problem definition phase of the product design. Because isolated rural villages are generally far from the design engineers’ previous experiences it is even more important to gather in-depth primary data in isolated rural villages. Based on data collected during in-depth field visits to villages in rural West Africa during a village energy study this paper proposes a structured process for collecting the data necessary to design cookstoves that meet local needs, fit within local contexts, and create an aspirational experience that fosters a sustainable solution.

Full text
Abstract:
Between 1972 and 2014, in Northern Tamil Nadu (NTN), India, the Green Revolution (GR) in agriculture was studied through five rounds of village-level studies (VLS). Over the decades, the number of villages dwindled; from 11, rigorously and randomly selected (together with a ‘Slater’ village first studied in 1916), through to a set of three villages in a rural–urban complex around a market town, to one of the original eleven, in the fifth round. During the reorganisation of districts in 1989, the villages sited on the Coromandel plain shifted administratively from North Arcot, a vanguard GR district, to Tiruvannamalai, described then as relatively backward. A wide range of concepts, disciplines, scales, field methods and analytical approaches were deployed to address i) a common core of questions about the economic and social implications of technological change in agriculture and ii) sets of other timely questions about rural development, which changed as the project lengthened. Among the latter was poverty.

Abstract:
We estimate the impact of access to information and communication technology on agricultural profitability and child labor among isolated villages in rural Peru. We exploit the timing of an intervention that provided at least one public (satellite) payphone to 6,296 villages that did not previously have communication services. Using a village level panel, we show that profitability increased by 19.7 percent. Moreover, this income shock translated into a reduction in the likelihood of child market and agricultural work of 14 and nine percentage points respectively. Overall, the evidence suggests a dominant income effect in the utilization of child labor.

In each of these villages, CSOs introduced and/or strengthened interventions to support gender inclusion, women’s collective action and empowerment. The stories of these village women offer unique insights into women’s aspirations, the challenges they have encountered and their achievements across multiple scales and domains, illustrating the lived complexities of women in rural Indonesia, particularly those from vulnerable groups. The stories shared highlight women’s own pathways of change and their resilience and determination often in the face of resistance from their families and communities, to ultimately reduce rural gender inequities and bolster gender inclusiveness. The stories also illustrate the important role CSOs—those that are focused on gender inclusion and facilitating grassroots women’s agency and empowerment—can play in supporting women’s voice and agency as they undertake this journey.

Full text
Abstract:
As noted in this monograph, marriage forms a central element of social life for Egyptians. Marriage in Egypt is nearly universal, and parents invest heavily to establish their children in married life. Once married, couples are faced with social pressures to begin childbearing immediately, a reflection of the high value placed on parenthood and children. But not all marriages begin with the same prospects for stability and satisfaction. This study draws attention to the problems faced by women who marry at very early ages in parts of rural Egypt. Despite a legal minimum age of 16, significant numbers of young girls marry below that age, and many experience social, emotional, and health-related difficulties. This study tells why these young women married early and how that decision affected their later life. The study points to areas where the aspirations of these girls have been clearly thwarted—to go to school, delay marriage, and postpone childbearing until they feel physically and psychologically ready. A related picture emerges of the social and economic forces that propel rural girls into marriage at very young ages. Each of these problems suggest areas for policy attention.
