Published: December 2023

Abstract
As one of the districts that have an important role for Karanganyar Regency in agriculture and tourism, Jenawi District is a producer of 18 out of the 22 agricultural commodities in Karanganyar Regency, Indonesia. In addition, Jenawi District also has various natural tourism objects such as caves, valleys, waterfalls, springs, and other tourism objects. However, the potential of agriculture and tourism has not been able to improve community welfare because there is no policy to encourage the agricultural and tourism sectors in Jenawi District. Therefore, this study aims to formulate alternative policy models in the agriculture and tourism sectors in Jenawi District. This research uses quantitative research methods using primary and secondary data types, where the data collection techniques used are observation, interviews, FGDs, literature reviews, and GIS analysis. GIS analysis enabled spatial data integration and visualization, facilitating the identification of patterns, relationships, and potential areas for agriculture and tourism development. The analysis method used is a dynamic system method that uses the causal loop diagram analysis technique. The analysis results found that the dynamic system model in Jenawi District that has been designed is able to work properly with high accuracy levels. There are differences between with and without policies, especially in the incentives used, which have significant differences. With the implementation of policies in Jenawi District, there is a difference in income results in the agricultural sector reaching 20%-27%, and in the tourism sector reaching 80%.

Abstract
Population growth has an impact on increasing the need for land use. The availability of land for settlement development in urban areas is very limited, so that there are people who occupy land that is unsuitable. The coastal area of Semarang City is located on the northern outskirts of the city, indicating an increase in settlement areas. The characteristics of coastal areas that have flat morphology and border the sea are flood-prone areas. This study aims to analyze land suitability for settlement development in the coastal area of Semarang. Suitability based on land capability, and completeness of settlement facilities. To provide information about settlement development locations that are safe and have complete facilities. Settlement development locations in accordance with spatial planning documents and land availability. Using quantitative descriptive methods and spatial analysis with geographic information systems and remote sensing imagery as spatial data. The stages of analysis include analysis of physical aspects, analysis of land capability, analysis of settlement service levels and analysis of land suitability for settlement development. The results showed that currently there are 1696.80 ha of suitable land for the development of settlements in the Semarang Coastal area. Most of them are in Genuk District (60.88%) and Tugu District (26.89%). The research findings can be used as government considerations in compiling spatial policy recommendations related to Sustainable Settlement Development in the Coastal Areas of the Semarang City.

Published: December 2023

Abstract
Economic growth in Central Java Province is currently being driven by the rapid acceleration of investment, leading to the development of cities and districts. However, the measurement of regional competitiveness is currently limited to analysing regional capabilities in development. This condition creates a situation where regencies and cities compete with each other without considering the functions and roles of interconnected regions. Therefore, there is an urgent need to understand and utilize regional competitiveness within the framework of the regional system in order to support the policies of the Central Java Province. This study adopts a quantitative approach to analyse the stages of regional development, which are identified based on competitiveness starting from basic requirements as a factor-driven, efficiency-driven, and innovation factor. Using this approach, we aim to classify the functions and roles of cities and districts within the regional system in Central Java. The data for this study was obtained through the distribution of questionnaires in 35 districts and cities in Central Java Province, as well as interviews with stakeholders from both the regions and the provinces. The findings of this study reveal that cities and regencies have different stages of competitiveness, with some focusing on driving innovation and strengthening driving factors, while neglecting efficiency. Spatially, cities exhibit a higher level of competitiveness; however, most urban districts have not incorporated the role of the region in the planning of a sustainable regional system.

Published: December 2023

Abstract
Regional innovations play a crucial role in driving economic development and enhancing regional competitiveness. Innovation is the main raw material and support for competitiveness, which makes regions with high innovation must also have high competitiveness. Regional innovation is shaped by factors such as innovation policy, knowledge generation, knowledge application, and socio-cultural elements. This research aims to examine regional innovation and its relationship with competitiveness based on spatial distribution. The method employed is quantitative descriptive analysis, utilizing statistical data on regional innovation obtained through a questionnaire distributed to local governments in 35 districts and cities. Additionally, a spatial analysis was conducted to compare the innovation scores and competitiveness. The research findings indicate a consistent alignment between the innovation profile and regional competitiveness. However, there are also anomalous areas demonstrating divergent outcomes. This suggests that while innovation is a significant contributor to regional competitiveness, it is not the sole determinant influencing it.

AbstractRegional development in an area will have consequences for the health status of the surrounding community. This paper discusses the adequacy of community health center (CHC) facilities in taking an important role in managing health disasters such as the Covid-19 pandemic. Covid-19 is one of the most infectious environmental-based diseases. The research objective was to spatially identify the availability of CHC and their relationship to Covid-19 cases during the pandemic. Ecological studies are used with a spatial approach. The population in this study were all sub-districts in Magelang District with a total sampling. Spatial analysis makes use of the QGIS and Geoda applications. The results showed that there was grouped spatial autocorrelation (Moran’s I = 0.089, Io = 0.05) between CHC in Magelang. Covid-19 in Magelang residents has a positive autocorrelation with CHC (Moran’s I = 0.248, Io = 0.05) and forms a cluster pattern. The spatial lag regression further clarifies that there is a spatial autocorrelation between the two variables (Coef: -0.175; p value= 0.569), and the Covid-19 variable has a significant influence on the CHC (p=0.0022). Analysis using the Local Indicator Spatial Association (LISA) method found that Ngluwar Sub-district is in the High-High quadrant, while Mungkid Sub-district is in the Low-High quadrant and the other sub-districts are not significant. Spatial pattern heterogeneity is formed in CHC and there is a spatial autocorrelation relationship between Covid-19 cases and CHC. Systematic planning is needed to overcome the adequacy of the CHC to help improve the quality of public health.
Spatial Pattern of Urban Heat Island to Enhance Urban Cooling Ecosystem Services in the Post-Pandemic Era
Authors: Rini Erma F. 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
Urbanization, followed by reduced green space, often leads to increased land surface temperatures (LST), which is also known as the urban heat island (UHI) effect. Urban cooling ecosystem services provided by forests and parks play a crucial role in reducing the UHI effect (which is reflected in LST) and improving the liveability and sustainability of cities. The pandemic has changed many people’s views about the importance of ecosystem services to their well-being. The post-pandemic era is a turning point for infrastructure and environmental improvements to increase ecosystem services’ benefits. This study aims to look at the potential for increasing ecosystem services’ benefits through the provision of urban forests and parks based on UHI conditions in Surakarta city. In this study, UHI was identified from LST based on Landsat 8 and Landsat 9 remote sensing images. The spatial pattern of the UHI was analyzed based on block units using road boundaries using cluster and outlier statistical spatial analysis. In formulating alternatives to provide urban forests and parks, we also interviewed stakeholders from a village revitalization program in Kampung Mojo, Surakarta city. The results show that after the pandemic, in a revitalized neighborhood, the surface temperature was still high. The revitalization program did not include the provision of parks because the basic issue of this program is land ownership legality. Nevertheless, the UHI spatial pattern provides evidence that the provision of urban forests and parks is needed on the central and southern sides of Surakarta city to enhance urban cooling ecosystem services.

Published: December 2023

Abstract
The existence of public open space is essential for a city, not only to beautify the visual area but also as a space for community interaction, a place for play, recreation, and greening the city. Tirto Agung Park is one of the public open spaces built by the Semarang City Government, which serves the urban community, mainly people of Tembalang and Banyumanik Districts. The park surrounding area is livelier, so the government claims this park is a thriving public space. However, the park leads to the emergence of cafes, shophouses, apartments, and street vendors, making some areas crowded. Most park visitors are people from outside, which raises the question of how attached the people who live around are to the park’s existence. Therefore, this research aims to identify the green-placemaking of Tirto Agung Park by determining the park’s ability to accommodate the community. Placemaking is an effort to strengthen the relationship between public space and visitors determined from several variables, such as access and linkages, sociability, uses and activities, comfort, and image. The research method used is quantitative, and data collection methods through field observation and questionnaires. The analytical methods are descriptive quantitative and spatial analysis methods to determine the activity and space use around the park, the relationship between public open spaces and the community (behavioral mapping), and mapping the components of placemaking. The results showed that placemaking has occurred in Tirto Agung Park, but some aspects still need improvement to enhance the placemaking further.

Abstract
Active Urban Parks are part of public green open spaces that play a role for a city, especially for the citizens. Because this active urban park can be a place for people to socialize. This study aims to identify the distribution of active urban parks located in the city of Semarang, which is depicted on the map of urban park distribution. The approach used is qualitative inductive strategy. The method used is a spatial descriptive method using GIS. Based on the results of the analysis, in general the distribution of active urban parks in Semarang City was not evenly distributed. This can be seen from 16 Subdistrict in the City of Semarang, almost all subdistricts have, the distribution of active urban parks that have not yet reached the entire area in each of these subdistricts. From the 16 subdistricts, there are only 3 subdistrict that have a fairly even distribution of active urban parks, i.a. Semarang Timur subdistrict, Semarang Utara subdistrict and Banyumanik subdistrict. These findings will be able to provide information related to the location of active urban parks in Semarang City and their distribution, which is presented in the form of a distribution map so that it becomes more interesting and communicative.

Abstract
The conceptual foundations of monitoring the state’s food security system under the conditions of global turbulence have been deepened. It was determined that the set of indicators of the state of food security used in national practice is imperfect. It is emphasized that the totality of indicators cannot objectively contribute to identifying potential threats to sustainable development and adopting effective management decisions. Attention is focused on the need to consider the impact of other components, including the issues of the accessibility, availability, quality, and safety of food products, as well as their resilience and adaptability. The hypothesis regarding the direct relationship between the degree of compliance of agricultural production in the country with sustainable development principles and the overall level of economic accessibility of food has been proved. The established and mathematically proven direct relationship between the indicators made it possible to emphasize the need to raise the population’s living standards. This is necessary to reduce the negative impact of the production of agricultural products on the environment, which results from the understanding by consumers of the need to satisfy not only basic needs but also to preserve natural resources for future generations. It is mathematically proven that in countries with a high level of economic accessibility of food, the compliance of agricultural production with sustainable development principles has a high level and is strongly correlated with economic factors. In countries with medium and low indicators of economic accessibility of food, such a relationship does not have statistical significance. The conclusions drawn are useful for practical use in conditions of global economic turbulence.

Abstract
The study explores the world of green finance within the context of the Georgian financial market, focusing on the influence of regulatory initiatives and market practices. Green finance, driven by sustainability goals and environmental responsibility, has gained prominence globally. In Georgia, this phenomenon has been exemplified by the introduction of sustainability bonds and the integration of ESG factors into financial institutions’ strategies. The research question centers on understanding how regulatory initiatives and market practices impact the growth and effectiveness of green finance in Georgia. The hypothesis posits a positive correlation between the adoption and implementation of regulatory initiatives (such as green taxonomies and ESG guidelines) and the growth and impact of green finance. Through a comprehensive survey of 200 loan officers in Georgian commercial banks, the study gathers insights into perceptions and attitudes regarding sustainability bonds, ESG integration, and green taxonomies. The majority of respondents express optimism about the positive influence of these factors on green finance.

Abstract
The article examines the state of development, problems, and needs of innovative management in the hospitality industry. Based on research results using the example of EU countries, the dominance of a group of countries with the lowest indicators of workforce employment in the hospitality industry across all types of activities (59.3%) has been identified. The presence of highly developed countries in this group indicates the activation of innovative management activities in the hospitality industry. Accordingly, the directions of modern digital trends in the hospitality industry have been studied and schematically presented. Analyzing consumer behavior in the hospitality industry, changes have been observed due to tourists’ insufficient financial support: an increase in the number of trips during off-peak periods (especially in Slovakia (186.79%), Ireland (102.51%), Austria (79.58%)); a preference for budget-friendly travel destinations (for example, Serbia, Turkey, Bulgaria). The study justifies the need for the development of innovative management in the hospitality industry and schematically presents a possible option for its provision, highlighting the need for ongoing research to identify user needs in hospitality services and explore alternative ideas to meet those needs.

Abstract
In the second half of 2021 - the first half of 2023, the EU electricity markets were under unprecedented pressure caused by soaring gas prices and aggravated by other fundamental factors. This period corresponds to the energy crisis in the EU electric power sector. However, all EU electricity markets responded to the energy crisis differently. This paper proposes a methodology for revealing the energy crisis in the electricity market, which is based on the tools of descriptive statistics, explanatory data analysis and k-means clustering which allows to identification duration and phases of the energy crisis such as escalation, peak, and recovery phases. Using this methodology, the energy crisis was identified in the EU electricity markets (by separate bidding zones), and as a result, the starting and ending points of the energy crisis, as well as the changing by phases, were determined. Additionally, the use of hierarchical and agglomerative clustering methods made it possible to divide all EU electricity markets into 9 clusters by the evolution of the energy crisis and identify unaffected, resilient vulnerable markets to the energy crisis, and markets with their own dynamics.

Published: December 2023

Abstract
While there is a burgeoning body of literature investigating the economic implications of participation in GVCs on growth and other key macroeconomic indicators, there remains a paucity of studies that specifically explore how natural resources interact within the context of GVCs in both developing and developed countries. This paper seeks to address the current gap by conducting an investigation into the impact of resource-based GVC participation, specifically for the industries of fuels and minerals, on the growth of value-added. Utilizing a unique dataset that spans the period from 1990 to 2016 and contains 133 countries, we employ the fixed effects method to capture unobserved individual heterogeneity. Our empirical findings reveal that, for our full sample, mineral (fuels) backward (forward) GVC participation has a positive and significant impact on the growth of the industry. Also, forward GVC participation exerts a favorable influence on value-added growth in the fuels and minerals sectors in developed countries. Finally, participating in minerals backward participation favors the mineral value-added growth in only developing countries.

Abstract
The article examines the role of innovations in the development of the national economy. The dynamics of budgetary financing of strategic priorities of innovation and technology transfer activities in Ukraine for 2019-2021 is analyzed. The priorities, the support of which is increasing annually, and the priorities where funding is decreasing, are identified. It is proposed to carry out a predictive assessment of innovative projects using the clustering procedure. The implementation of the proposal is highlighted on the example of innovative developments in the strategic priority area "Widespread use of cleaner production technologies and environmental protection". A point system for expert evaluation of the planned scientific results of the innovation and the scientific potential of the performers is shown. The indicators that have the greatest impact on the forecast efficiency are identified. The results of clustering of innovative developments according to certain indicators are presented. The statistical indicators of average scores in each cluster are analyzed. Significant differences between the clusters have been determined using the non-parametric Mann-Whitney test. The carried out clustering provides reasonable recommendations on the feasibility of financing an innovative project based on predictive expert assessments.
Ensuring rational natural use through effective taxation

Published: December 2023

AbstractThe important article substantiates the peculiarities of environmental tax administration in Ukraine and defines its importance in ensuring an ecologically oriented economy. It has been proven that from 2016 to 2020 there is an increase in emissions of pollutants into the atmosphere by more than 10.5%. A thorough analysis of the payment of the environmental tax to the relevant budget was carried out and a close relationship between the number of emissions of polluting substances and the rates of this tax was determined. It has been proven that in Ukraine the environmental tax does not ensure the performance of one of the main functions, namely the preservation of the natural environment. This situation is due to the relatively low rates of this tax, as well as the lack of an effective mechanism for controlling emissions of pollutants. One of the main directions of solving this problem is to use the experience of European countries in diversifying the tax rates under study depending on the type and volume of pollutant emissions.
