District 2483 ::: DG Bane Ranđelović ::: Editor: Nikola Božić, ADG ::: 2017/18 ::: Newsletter No 3 RC Zrenjanin: Supporting talent Summer Camp Mojca in Slovenia This year, like the last five years, RC Zrenjanin together with friendly Rotary clubs from Zagorje ob Savi (Slovenia) and Brčko (B-H), successfully implemented the campaign called “Summer Camp Mojca” from July 8-15. Camp accommodation, transport and pocket money was provided for three pupils of the final year of Zrenjanin primary schools, winners of a municipal competition and/or prominent individuals. The Summer Camp organized by the Mojca Association from Novo Mesto (Slovenia), was held in Dolenjske Toplice, where more than 2,000 young people from Slovenia and Europe are welcomed each year and where children have the opportunity to work on various intensive projects in areas important for their development. During their stay in the Camp, the use of mobile phones was banned and replicating modern social life was discouraged. RC Zrenjanin ranked this drive highly precisely because it focused on gifted and hard- working children, giving them the opportunity to expand their outlook, make new acquaintances, as well as acquire knowledge of a way of life that regrettably has not yet arrived in our midst. Topics in Camp Mojca • Spending free time in a better way; • Developing and promoting creativity; • Developing awareness and educating young people to keep in touch with nature and a healthy and athletic way of life; • Social and humanitarian programs for helping children, adolescents and parents, and others. RtC Kragujevac: Let’s Build for Children Support for an elementary school Keeping to the plan that each year a school yard or sports ground of an elementary school from the Kragujevac area will be fixed up, the Let’s Build for Children project was launched. During the weekend of Sept 1-3, some 500,000 Euros were collected at an auction of the sports jerseys of famous Serbian athletes (Djoković, Teodosić, Kostić, etc.) and the October Remembrance Race. These funds will be used to fix up the playground in the elementary school Svetozar Marković in Kragujevac, including a fence as well as football goals and other sports equipment.

  • A Multicriteria Analysis of Possible Tourist Offers in Toplica District
    QUAESTUS MULTIDISCIPLINARY RESEARCH JOURNAL A MULTICRITERIA ANALYSIS OF POSSIBLE TOURIST OFFERS IN TOPLICA DISTRICT Dragan TURANJANIN, Mališa ŢIŢOVIĆ, Marija MARČETIĆ, Miodrag ŢIŢOVIĆ Abstract: Some possibilities of making a new offer of the tourism services of the District of Toplica are indicated in the paper. The obtained order of alternative unexploited possibilities prioritizes the recovery of Kuršumlijska Banja spa in relation to all the other alternatives. Yet, it must be said that the other alternatives are also significant, and that they should also be exploited in the future so that this region might be present in the tourist offer of the Republic of Serbia to a greater extent. Keywords: multicriteria analisys, tourism, Toplica district INTRODUCTION Toplica District is an administrative district in Serbia, whose center is in Prokuplje. It is located eastwards from the Southern Morava River, i.e. it encompasses the basin of the Toplica River, a tributary of the Southern Morava, and a small part of the basin of the Rasina River, a tributary of the Western Morava. It surrounds the city of Prokuplje and the municipalities of Kuršumlija, Blace, and ŢitoraŤa. The Toplica River‘s spring is in the mountain of Kopaonik, and it was named after the numerous warm springs in its valley. This river is characteristic for the epigenia, which is found in as many as two places near the city of Prokuplje (it runs in one direction, then in the same line, but in the opposite direction). Therefore, Toplica District consists of the Toplica River Valley and is surrounded by the mountains of Jastrebac, Kopaonik, Radan, Vidojevnica and Pasjaţa.

Due to their large number, physical quantity variance, and incompleteness, these factors have a limited, sometimes even conflicting and ineffectual application in producing a unified effect on development. This issue becomes resolvable through a modification of factor analysis by means of combining it with multi-criteria decision analysis (MCDA). The solutions thus obtained in the form of a ranking, with the top-ranked solution being the most favorable, constitute immense support for decision makers to use the proposed most favorable solution to formulate and implement their plan of development. Keywords: sustainable regional development, development factors, multi-criteria decision analysis, multi-objective planning, factor analysis Introduction the one hand, natural resources are used for the purpose of production, but in order to attain sustainability, it is Regional development is one of the frequent topics necessary to invest in the natural environment, as it of interest not only within economic sciences but also is the only way to achieve harmonious development.
