  • “Quality Systems and Practices in Agro-Ecotourism Enterprises in Rural Trans - Border Regions”
    Dr. Electra Pitoska1 “Quality systems and practices in agro-ecotourism enterprises in rural trans - border regions”. Tourism comprises a self- contained phenomenon synonymous to consumption and spare time and its growth. Due to the development of technology and the improvement of the standards of living it has taken global dimensions. As a result tourism has developed into a pure industry, leading the economy and society in local, regional, national and global level towards important changes. Based on the quality and the value of the natural and cultural heritage, as well as on the growth of the level of the given services, tourism developed several alternative types. An alternative type of tourism is agro-ecotourism, which went through an enormous rise and demand. The change of consumer’s behavior and tourist’s consideration of the environment has led organizations that take actions in that sector, into the adoption of high level of standards in all aspects of the generative procedure. The main reason for this continual improvement of the service level and the quality of the given services, as well as the clamp-down for the protection of the environment, was the reason that sustainable tourist growth became a strategic aim. The quality and the practices that ensure sustainability are a continuous procedure which is accomplished by the implementation of quality systems, aiming to achieve the Total Quality. Companies that comply with the specific standards receive quality marks, which conform to this kind of favor that will remain to the consumer’s consciousness. In that perspective, the aim of the research was to examine whether agro-ecotouristic enterprises are certified for the given services, for the protection of the consumers/ tourists, as well as for the protection of the environment.

  • Factors Determining the Sustainable Management of Local Resources of Growth Regarding Mountainous Regions; the Case of Nymfaio Florinas
    Kalfas-Tyrselis, 153-168 Factors determining the sustainable management of local resources of growth regarding mountainous regions; the case of Nymfaio Florinas Kalfas G. Dimitrios MSc Forester - Environmentalist Florina Greece, Kontopoulou 45 [email protected] Tyrselis S. Xenofontas Translator Florina Greece, Kontopoulou 54 [email protected] Abstract The purpose of the present essay is to identify and assess the main factors determining the attractiveness of local resources development in mountain areas. The long-term planning for the gentle development of an abandoned mountain village, and possibly the need for additional institutional measures must be taken into account in order to achieve the over time substantial improvement in the region. The identification and assessment of factors affecting the sustainable management is achieved through a primary survey for measuring the dimensions of sustainable development in the village of Nymfaio region, such as the economic, social and environmental sustainability. According to these directions, the community of Nymfaio, situated in the Prefecture of Florina, is recommended and analyzed as an example within the framework of management of mountainous areas. The globalization of the financial activity challenges the adaptability of regional economies and the ability to make the most of, or at least to maintain their comparative advantages. Despite the effort, as far as political selections are concerned, the gap between the regions becomes larger and the costs for the maintenance of their cohesion are rising. In the meantime, technological changes, wide markets and an increasing demand for knowledge, offer new opportunities for a local and regional development in general. However, human resources remain the main factor for the improvement and also for the promotion of the local environment.

They are boundless Countless fighters died For our beloved nation Mother, gives us manly strength nd the participants of the 62 IPA World Congress Continue their path. These are the lyrics of the Bulgarian national anthem, and they deserve to be quoted in such circumstances, as I am convinced that there are significant parallels between what the national anthem of Bulgaria states and the true meaning of our presence at the IPA World Congress 2017. Friendship is our Motherland, a Heaven on Earth, one of the most wonderful values, the beauty and loveliness of which are indeed also boundless. Do we not often say that the IPA World has always transcended national borders?
