Webinar Description

Roads to Sustainability: Community Engagement in Best Tourism Villages
Tourism for rural development is increasingly recognized as essential for preserving cultural heritage and environmental integrity while fostering economic growth. This webinar will present three representatives from the Best Tourism Villages by the United Nations World Tourism Organization (UN Tourism) in Rwanda, Malaysia, and Indonesia. The panel will present case studies highlighting key community strategies and practices to balance tourism growth with sustainability goals. Active community participation in decision- making processes and effective management of natural and cultural resources play a crucial role in achieving long-term sustainability. The villages aim to enhance their sustainability efforts through community involvement, emphasizing the importance of local knowledge, collaboration, and continuous adaptation to changing circumstances.

مهمان نوازى و نقش سرمايه انسانى در آن
هتلداری نقش برجسته ای در اقتصاد کشورهای پربازدید دارد. سرمایه های انسانی نیز از مهم‌ترین منابع این صنعت بشمار می‌روند. مدیریت موثر کارکنان مستعد می‌تواند مزیت رقابتی در میهمان نوازی بویژه هتلداری محسوب شود. برای مدیریت استعدادها، باید از دانش و رویه‌های مناسب استفاده شود تا منابع انسانی با پتانسیل در جایگاه‌های کلیدی سازمان قرار گرفته و افزایش بهره وری حاصل شود. علیرغم جوان بودن نظریه ها در علم مدیریت استعداد، پژوهش‌های قابل توجهی انجام شده است. با این وجود، همچنان نیاز به افزایش مطالعات و تبادل دانش آکادمیک-تجربی در مدیریت استعداد حوزه های تخصصی مختلف بویژه هتلداری وجود دارد.
