PurposeIn recent years, community-based tourism (CBT) in the global market has been combined with specific themes in order to establish various tourism activities. Relatively few studies have comprehensively investigated how this type of CBT should be developed. Therefore, this study takes CBT with festival themes combined with community characteristics as a case study, which explores what obstacles exist in CBT with a combination of community characteristics – the industrial history of sugar factories and external themes, such as, formal flower displays.Design/methodology/approachThe thematic analysis is employed for data analysis of interviews. All interview participants were stakeholders.FindingsThis study identifies five types of obstacles: policy-related, environmental-related, innovation-related, industry-related and communication-related. Based on these findings, it is vital to consider both community and other characteristics of CBT. At the same time, after evaluating the rational perceptions of different stakeholders within the same type of obstacle, this study proposes a more specific and comprehensive development strategies for CBT.Originality/valueTo the best of the authors' knowledge, this is the first study of community agricultural tourism which collected the viewpoints of different stakeholders – tourists, residents, community associations, local businesses and the government. This study employs in-depth analysis of external policies and environmental and agricultural factors to discover and develop relevant coping strategies and implications.

Driving the zero-carbon construction strategy: key barriers and enablers

PurposeIn the fast-changing field of zero-carbon construction there is a gap in understanding how zero-carbon construction strategies are experienced in practice. This paper aims to identify the key barriers and enablers to driving a zero-carbon construction strategy by industry, policymakers and educators.Design/methodology/approachThe research was conducted in two stages. The first stage used a literature review to determine thematic areas from which to develop discussion points for the second stage of the research, which gathered insights into key barriers and enablers to driving a zero-carbon construction strategy from analysing recorded discussion with industry, policymakers and educators. This study adopts a qualitative research methodological design underpinned by dialectical approach of enquiries involving 31 participants. The philosophical standpoint aligns with a constructivist participatory worldview based on multiple stakeholder perspectives. Data involving virtual and face-to-face engagement held simultaneously in Australia and India were transcribed, coded and synthesised to identify the barriers and enablers to driving zero-carbon construction strategy.FindingsThe paper identified key barriers and enablers driving zero-carbon construction strategy. Barriers included limited awareness of industry dynamics; fixed mental models of professional practice; complexities in identifying appropriate skillsets; difficulties associated with reviewing education and training models and integrating sustainable strategies at early stages of projects. Enablers included: fostering education reform and supporting frameworks and procurement strategies for developers and clients; implementing efficient building designs, construction and operationalisation of zero-carbon buildings and; utilising an industry-led integrated approach. A framework was developed to provide an illustrative view of the linkage between the research projects’ focus areas and emergent themes.Originality/valueThe paper provides zero-carbon action priorities for four significant stakeholder groups in the build environment, developers, building occupiers, educators and government. As the priorities are derived in the research from examination of current literature and analysis of stakeholder viewpoints, this paper presents a unique, realistic and timely identification of barriers and key enablers driving zero-carbon construction strategies. Methodology applied in terms of data collection involved a public discourse and a unique technology-driven collaborative approach where participants simultaneously contributed across countries and time zones in a synchronous manner across key topics related to driving the zero-carbon construction strategy.

Perceptions of risk sharing agreements in South Korea from the viewpoints of key stakeholders: a convergent parallel mixed approach

ABSTRACT Objectives In 2013, South Korea introduced risk-sharing agreements (RSAs) as a new reimbursement mechanism to enhance access to new medicines and to manage pharmaceutical expenditures. This study evaluates RSAs in South Korea from the viewpoints of key stakeholders. Methods In 2022, a survey and semi-structured interviews were conducted. Study participants were recruited from academia (n = 3), domestic (n = 4) and foreign (n = 6) manufacturers, and government agencies (n = 6) using a purposive sampling method. Results Key stakeholders perceived the objective of RSAs to be ‘access to medicines’ and understood RSAs to manage uncertainty about ‘expenditures.’ They responded that financial- and performance-based RSAs address uncertainty about ‘expenditures’ and ‘clinical effectiveness,’ respectively. All stakeholders agreed that RSAs have increased the likelihood that new medicines will be listed and have reduced out-of-pocket expenditures for patients. However, foreign manufacturers insisted that the benefits of RSAs are marginal, while the administrative burden on manufacturers is high. Conclusion The gaps in perception between stakeholders could be narrowed by conducting a comprehensive evaluation. Financial- and performance-based RSAs need to be clearly distinguished and aligned to address the uncertainties of a new medicine in health systems.

A Simulation-Based Study on Securing Data Sharing for Situational Awareness in a Port Accident Case

The cyber–physical systems (CPSs) of various stakeholders from the mobility, logistics, and security sectors are needed to enable smart and secure situational awareness operations in a port environment. The motivation for this research arises from the challenges caused by some unexpected events, such as accidents, in such a multi-stakeholder critical environment. Due to the scale, complexity, and cost and safety challenges, a simulation-based approach was selected as the basis for the study. Prototype-level experimental solutions for dataspaces for secure data sharing and visualization of situational awareness were developed. The secure data-sharing solution relies on the application of verifiable credentials (VCs) to ensure that data consumers have the required access rights to the data/information shared by the data prosumer. A 3D virtual digital twin model is applied for visualizing situational awareness for people in the port. The solutions were evaluated in a simulation-based execution of an accident scenario where a forklift catches fire while loading a docked ship in a port environment. The simulation-based approach and the provided solutions proved to be practical and enabled the smooth study of disaster-type situations. The realized concept of dataspaces is successfully applied here for both daily routine operations and information sharing during accidents in the simulation-based environment. During the evaluation, needs for future research related to perception, comprehension, projection, trust, and security as well as performance and quality of experience were detected. Especially, distributed and secure viewpoints of objects and stakeholders toward real-time situational awareness seem to require further studies.

145 Co-producing a physical activity referral scheme for the German healthcare system: A qualitative analysis of stakeholder experiences

Abstract Purpose Physical activity referral schemes (PARS) are a promising strategy to promote physical activity within healthcare settings. Despite the perceived potential of PARS, no national scheme has yet been implemented in Germany. This study investigated stakeholders’ experiences with the development of a PARS in the German healthcare system using a co-production approach. The focus was on examining facilitators and challenges, along with gathering insights on potential modifications to the joint development process, all from the viewpoint of stakeholders. Methods Based on 25 stakeholders participating in the co-production process, seven stakeholders were purposefully selected for one-to-one semi-structured interviews. Following the maximum variation principle, interview partners represented a variety of participating stakeholders regarding the health sector they belong to, the stakeholders’ position within their organization and their attendance during the development phase. We analyzed the interview transcripts using summarizing qualitative content analysis (software MAXQDA 2022). Results The following factors were identified as facilitators of the development process: co-production approach, process of co-production, multi-sector stakeholder group, possibility of active participation, coordinating role of researchers, communication, atmosphere and interaction. In contrast, differences in roles and hierarchy, merging of different perspectives, clarification of intervention costs, and competition and conflicting interests were pointed out as challenges. Interviewees made a few suggestions for improving group composition and cooperation among stakeholders. Conclusions Overall, stakeholder experiences with the development process were overwhelmingly positive, indicating that co-production is a beneficial approach for the development of PARS intended for integration into healthcare systems. To further improve co-production of PARS models and other interdisciplinary health services, scientists should report on and evaluate the collaborative development processes more frequently and systematically. Support/Funding Source The study is funded by the Federal Ministry of Health based on a resolution of the German ‘Bundestag’ by the federal government.

P029 PERCEPTIONS AND PERSPECTIVES OF RURAL NEPALESE PATIENTS WITH HYPERTENSION: A QUALITATIVE STUDY GUIDED BY THE LEVESQUE FRAMEWORK

Background and objective: High blood pressure is a major risk factor for heart disease and stroke. These diseases can be reduced if hypertension is identified, managed and controlled. Disease burden in Nepal is high, resources are limited, and the population is socioeconomically vulnerable. Developing tailored interventions for hypertension management requires understanding of challenges and facilitators of healthcare. This qualitative study investigated barriers and facilitators impacting treatment and control of patients with hypertension in rural Nepal. Methods: We conducted in-depth interviews among hypertensive patients(n=15), medical officers(n=3), Female Community Health Volunteers(FCHVs)(n=9), Frontline Health Workers(FLHWs)(n=15), medical officers(n=3), and local government representatives(n=5) from Panchkhal and Bethanchowk municipalities of Kavrepalanchok district, Nepal. Focus group discussions with FCHVs(n=7) were also conducted. Recordings were coded, transcribed and themes were identified. Patients with hypertension were approached door-to-door by FCHVs. FCHVs and FLHWs were accessed through health facilities. The framework developed by Levesque et al., was used to conceptualize access to care from the viewpoints of various stakeholders. Emerging themes were mapped as the ability to-perceive, seek, reach, pay and engage. Results: Most participants felt the need for care after experiencing symptoms like headaches, dizziness, and blurred vision. Trust in health facilities facilitated care, although unavailability of medicines and insufficient qualified staff were important obstacles. Some used homemade therapies for hypertension control highlighting a gap in awareness of treatment methods. Geographical inaccessibility of health facilities, as well as financial difficulties, were other important barriers identified. Patient's expected prompt service and reduced out-of-pocket expenditure. Medication-taking behavior was influenced by factors including forgetfulness, perceived need and side effects. Support from family, community, and local levels was identified as crucial for hypertension management. Conclusions: This qualitative study highlights the multifaceted challenges for hypertension treatment and control in rural Nepal. Addressing identified barriers and leveraging facilitating factors are essential for reducing hypertension.

Identifying stakeholder preferences for rebuilding a Canadian Atlantic redfish fishery—limitations and benefits of different opinion survey approaches

Fisheries management authorities seek to improve the incorporation of stakeholders’ preferences into decision-making but conventional approaches to assessing stakeholder viewpoints may risk under-representing a diversity of opinions. In Atlantic Canada’s units 1 and 2 redfish fisheries, there are competing visions about re-developing the fishery following historical overfishing. A management strategy evaluation (MSE) sought to identify which fishery objectives should guide the formulation of performance metrics. Following the MSE, we carried out a study to further sample the social, economic, and ecological objectives for the fishery using multiple questioning methods: i.e., workshops, questionnaires, and interviews. Results of interviews and questionnaires identified areas of consensus and complexity of opinion among the different groups (commercial, government and Indigenous), and showed that the workshop-based performance metrics defined in the MSE underrepresented the diversity of stakeholder preferences, particularly regarding social and economic goals. Multi-method and multi-disciplinary approaches to formalizing objectives are resource-intensive. However, there is value in applying multiple methods to systematically develop and formalize performance metrics that accurately reflect a diversity of stakeholders’ priorities for the fishery.

Exploring the key risk factors impeding the performance of highway construction projects: an evidence from Nigeria

Purpose Construction projects, and particularly highway infrastructures, are known to be major contributors to the socio-economic growth of developing countries. However, these types of projects are infamous for being highly risky due to the interplay of numerous risk factors. This study aims to explore the key risk factors impacting on the performance of highway infrastructure projects in Nigeria from the contextual viewpoint of key industry stakeholders. Design/methodology/approach Qualitative data was collected using semi-structured interviews. Specifically, 17 in-depth expert interviews were conducted with experienced stakeholders in the highway sector of the Nigerian construction industry. The collected data was transcribed and analysed using an established coding framework (grounded on case study approach, principles of thematic analysis and saliency analysis). Findings Overall, 17 key risks were identified from the data analysis process, and 6 risks were recognised as the most significant, based on the combination of prevalence of occurrence and significance of the coded information. The six top risks were: change in government, corruption, cost of construction materials, inflation, project funding issues and construction project delay. However, the first two of these risks (change in government and corruption) are politically related, which is specific and unique to the setting of Nigeria and thus might be seen as discouraging indicators that could have an impact on attracting foreign investors/contractors to Nigeria. Originality/value The study addressed the gap related with identifying context-specific risk factors impeding the performance of highway projects in Nigeria from the viewpoints of industry experts. It is expected that the findings will provide a better insight into the various risk factors and thus aid relevant policymakers to provide context-specific mitigating strategies.

A participatory foresight approach to envisioning post-pandemic urban development pathways in Tokyo

Ensuring sustainable urban futures demands varied approaches, particularly with the advent of the COVID-19 pandemic, which presents a unique situation and experience for reimagining urban futures. A considerable number of scientific inquiries have adopted participatory foresight approaches to imagining sustainable urban development pathways. However, not many have used a similar approach to envision urban development pathways in a post-COVID-19 era. Based on available evidence on the impacts of COVID-19 on urban forms and lifestyles and citizens’ experiences during the pandemic, such a study is imperative to better understand how people from different demographic groups envision an ideal post-pandemic city. Using the Greater Tokyo Area as a case study, we adopted the Q methodology to determine post-pandemic urban development pathways from the subjective viewpoints of diverse stakeholders. We identified four development pathways for an ideal post-pandemic city. The first pathway is a resilient city with good neighborhood accessibility and sustainable urban regeneration. The second and third pathways, shared by younger people, focus on pro-environmental climate change mitigation (city compactness, shared mobility) and pro-urban resilience, respectively. The final pathway imagines a post-pandemic city that is accessible, safe, and smart. We found that different age groups perceive their ideal cities differently, especially when emphasizing the nexus between pandemics and cities. The study illustrates the need to adopt more participatory approaches in designing future urban development pathways since varied perspectives of an ideal city exist among different age demographics. These approaches promote equitable, inclusive, and transparent urban planning, advancing community support for policymaking and implementation.

Determination of vitamin c in raw fruit and vegetable homogenates: dietary exposure and health effects of excess intake in adults and children.

The aim of the study was to determine Vitamin C content in some fruits and vegetables (FAV) including apple, banana, orange, pineapple, watermelon, carrot and cucumber, sold in the local markets in Awka, Anambra State, Nigeria as well as Vitamin C content in two-component and three-component homogenates FAV. The work was also designed to investigate the dietary exposure and health effects of excess vitamin C intake in adults and children. Vitamin C as total ascorbic acid (AA) after reduction of dehydroascorbic acid was analyzed using both titrimetric and spectrophotometric methods. The titrimetric method involved iodometric back-titration while the spectrophotometric method was done at an absorbance of 530 nm. The dietary exposure was evaluated as the total FAV intake multiplied by chemical concentration in the FAV whereas the health effect of excess vitamin C intake was conducted using the hazard quotient (HQ). The results revealed that Vitamin C for single fruits ranged from 11.76 - 41.17 mg/L for spectroscopic method and 16.9 - 31.84 mg/L for titrimetric method. Fruit homogenates showed Vitamin C concentrations of 14.70 - 220.58 mg/L and 17.23 - 209.09 mg/L for two-components homogenates: 29.41-132.35 mg/L and 31.05-113.10 mg/L for tri-components homogenates for spectrophotometric and titrimetric methods respectively. The results of dietary exposure and the health effects of excess vitamin C intake showed that children are more susceptible to health issues than adults in illnesses such as nausea, gastrointestinal pains, increased kidney stones and hyperactivity. There is therefore the need for a national recommended dietary allowance for total ascorbic acid (AA) in FAV homogenates from a stakeholder point of view in Nigeria.

Purpose: This study seeks to achieve three main objectives: (1) discern the actuality of mosque financial reporting; (2) assess stakeholder expectations concerning mosque activities; and (3) evaluate the variance in expectations among stakeholders regarding the reality of mosque financial reporting accountability. Methodology/Approach: The research employs a survey-based approach, utilizing a questionnaire for data collection. The population encompasses congregants, administrators, and supervisors located in the Pasar Rebo District of East Jakarta, including individuals associated with the Indonesian Mosque Council. Questionnaires were disseminated through both online channels using a Google form and through face-to-face interactions. Data were meticulously processed using SPSS 19, employing descriptive and inferential methods such as Analysis of Variance. Findings: The study reveals that all mosques possess financial reports primarily intended for dissemination among the congregation, supervisors, administrators, and particularly, administrators themselves. Stakeholders exhibit a preference for the imarah function of mosques, coupled with a desire for more comprehensive mosque functions. Stakeholders anticipate activity reports, specifically in the form of an annually issued, printed document, submitted during management meetings. The ANOVA test indicates no significant disparities between expectations and the accessibility of financial reports. Practical and Theoretical Contributions/Originality: This research augments existing literature by contributing insights from accountability surveys on mosque financial reporting, concentrating on the viewpoint of stakeholders within a specific geographical region. It extends beyond prior case-specific studies of mosques, enriching our comprehension of mosque financial reporting and accountability from a more comprehensive stakeholder standpoint. Research Limitation: This study is limited within the constrained sample size and an uneven distribution of willing participants among mosques and respondents. The absence of assistance in completing the questionnaire via Google Form introduces the potential for misperceptions and interpretations of instrument items.
