Festival - Science topic

Long-term promotion of destination consumption through festive activities should focus on creating authentic, culturally significant events that resonate with the destination’s identity. Building partnerships with local businesses, ensuring consistent quality, and fostering community involvement can enhance the sustainability and attractiveness of these festivals.

Festivals can be innovated by understanding the emotional and experiential needs of attendees. Designing activities that foster a sense of belonging, inclusivity, and personal connection—such as interactive cultural experiences, immersive storytelling, or family-friendly zones—can heighten the emotional appeal and make festivals memorable.

Festive activities can increase visitor numbers, strengthen the destination’s brand identity, and promote repeat visits. They can stimulate local economies, enhance cultural preservation, and contribute to infrastructure development. Over time, they can position the destination as a year-round tourism hub.

Key Issues to Address in Long-Term Mechanisms:

If someone possesses a fervent passion and unwavering dedication to achieve greatness in their chosen domain, whether it be in the arts, technology, science, then I firmly believe they bear a moral responsibility and ethical obligation to contribute meaningfully to society. It is crucial to actively seek to be a constructive force rather than a hindrance, always striving to be part of the solution.

In this pursuit of greatness, it becomes imperative that we consistently search for the truth, even when it may be uncomfortable to confront. When given the chance, we must be unafraid to speak the truth, recognizing the potential discomfort it may bring. It is a testament to our commitment to integrity and transparency.

Moreover, it is essential to approach our endeavors with consciousness and humility. As researchers, we hold a unique position of influence, and with that influence comes the responsibility to use our knowledge for the betterment of humanity. Recognizing our shared humanity, we must be conscious of the impact our work can have on the world.

Let us also be mindful of the potential misuse of knowledge and power. Researchers, like all humans, can wield their expertise for either good or ill. Thus, we must remain vigilant, putting aside ego and personal agendas, to ensure that our contributions align with the greater good.

Ultimately, the world we leave behind will be inherited by our children, making it all the more significant to actively engage in worthwhile endeavors. By combining passion, action, noble intentions, and an unwavering commitment to truth and humility, we can catalyze progress and create a positive impact in our respective fields.

It may be considered open ended semi-structured questionnaire and you may require a qual-quant approach for data analysis and interpretation.

Competence-based education (CBE) is an educational approach that places a strong emphasis on the development of specific skills, knowledge, and practical abilities relevant to real-world tasks and professional contexts. Unlike traditional education models that primarily focus on accumulating academic knowledge and completing a set curriculum, CBE centers on demonstrating competency and mastery in predefined learning outcomes. In CBE programs, learners are provided with clear competency frameworks, outlining the skills and abilities they need to acquire. The assessment is designed to evaluate a student's capability to perform tasks, solve problems, and apply knowledge effectively. This approach allows for personalized, flexible learning, as students can progress at their own pace and advance when they have demonstrated competence in a particular area. Competence-based education is often associated with vocational and technical training, professional development, and fields where practical skills are paramount, ultimately aiming to produce job-ready graduates equipped with the abilities necessary for success in their chosen careers.

It would be helpful if you put the numbers in tabulation format

I don't think generating and using a state level information is necessary for your study.

In addition, the derived Leontif model can be applied if you deem it suitable and if you feel it will help you communicate your research better.

You must note that state level indicators and measures can be applied at the city-level if such indicators are not available on city-level. However, the variables and data must reflect the city-level scenerio. Furthermore, you'll need to show this in a detailed format in your methodology, given that you're trying something (relatively) new.

There are some articles in google scholar about this festival. This one, for example file:///C:/Users/blue%20chameleon/Downloads/A%20Case%20Study%20for%20Development%20of%20Tradition%20and%20Culture%20of%20Myanmar%20People%20Based%20on%20some%20Myanmar%20Traditional%20Festivals%20(1).pdf

HbA1C will not be false positive as it depends on the lifespan of RBC (120days) indicates chronic condition. In case of acute intake of sugar like u said only RBS & FBS will be raised.

The use of terms such as mate, chum, buddy etc and a dozen other soubriquets are examples of redundant language rather than identifiers,

Something along the lines of adding pointless expressions like "do you know what I mean" at the end of a sentence.

It is doubtful that Joni Mitchell's address contained any complex message at all. The language used at music festivals is usually a combination of soundbites and pious rhetoric, a bit like political speeches really.

It is common to use cultural festivals for community (especially rural community) development.

Maybe these research will help:

Certainly, celebrations and festivals with large gatherings should be stopped to prevent the transmission of the virus and reduce infections at the present time ... Thank you very much, Professor, for asking this guiding and guiding question that everyone needs at the present time.

Prof Dr Prasan kumar Panda

I do enjoy music festivals, but even if something like that did take place, I would be worried that even if the event started as a "well-structured mass gathering", obeying protocols, I could envisage that as the time passed, and people became more lax, rules would be broken.

Even when these are in the open air, I would not feel comfortable attending, at the moment.

I just looked quickly online; this is March 2020:

I think... yes... but it is so difficult...

The broader issue of longer term event legacies, rather than short term events, is dealt with in our recent paper on events in the city of Den Bosch in the Netherlands - see:

The COVID-19 situation has created uncertainty in the minds of consumers and uncertainty leads towards anxiety. Humans respond differently in the face of uncertainty and their reaction/response can be analyzed and used to ease the anxieties of the consumers in a healthy way. For example, supporting positive actions that help consumers adapt and promoting positive behavior change might be helpful.

Dear shahrukh,

thanks for attention and for taking part in this festival you can join on the website.

Thanks for the info!

I think this is purposive sampling. Or you can read Scheaffer, R. L., Mendenhall III, W., Ott, R. L., & Gerow, K. G. (2011). Elementary survey sampling. Cengage Learning.

Good Luck

Hi,

I don't have a scientific explanation, but personally, I think this has to do with a change in circumstances as we age. During my younger years, I used to go to festivals, enjoying the moment, drinking and having fun, not necessarily worrying about the day after. Nowadays, if we can arrange a babysitter, you know that once you get back home, there will be kids that wake up early irregardless of your sleep deprivation and/or hangover. That prospect makes enjoying the actual event more difficult than say 20 years ago..

So now we go to kids festivals instead, enjoying the fact that they are enjoying themselves!

Does that make sense to you?

Think this might work for some researchers and might not work for other researchers. E.g. in Malaysia whereby it is a multi-racial & multi-cultural countries that when a festival is celebrating by certain group of researchers, they might take a break to re-charge so that they can enhance their research further after the festive season. However at the same time, for those researchers who are not really celebrating the festival, they might take the same public holiday break to continue their research.

This depends on several factors including your sample size, number and type of variables, and others. If you're analysing a small number of variables with a large sample size, correlational analysis may be helpful. If you're analysing a large number of variables/concepts with large sample size, CB-SEM (AMOS) would be ok. If large number of concepts with a small sample size, PLS-SEM (Smart-PLS) is efficient. Hope your find this helpful.

As a starting point for the European context i think this could be helpful:

Brauneck, Manfred / ITI Germany: Independent Theatre in Contemporary Europe: Structures - Aesthetics - Cultural Policy (Theater)

For the structures in the US i have no idea, unfortunately.

Cultural change plays a major role in farmers’ choice of varieties. The loss of local culture and increased assimilation into a general or dominant culture may eliminate preferences and practices that make a diversity of crop types valuable. Certain varieties that are used as ingredients in dishes prepared for customary festivals and events will disappear if those festivals wane ....

It will be interesting! Virtual platforms are taking charge of the traditional face to face attendance of social gatherings and academic forums. Recently, via virtual platform, I presented my paper at a conference. Indeed, it saves time and other resources like travelling costs.

Dear Maria,

there are plenty of good examples for urban regeneration via cultural programs in the european cities. The collapse of traditional inner-city industry resulted brownfield type residential and transitional areas where governmental or municipial projects were started with a strong emphsasis on culural events, creative design and trade and shops. In many cases the central demand met the local interests, or even, local residents have played a determining and initiative role in the process. Culture-led regeneration went on in several negihbourhoods of Berlin, for example the Hackescharer Markt and Höfe, where small art shops and crafts workshops have settled together with boutiques and fashio shops, etc. BEsides the private development cafés, meeting places, cultural centres have been developed to create a new, vivid public life.

Some interesting examples can also be found in Budapest, where we have small regeneration projects for urban revitalisation. The literary cafés or the small local exhibition palces can be mentioned as both private and municipal-founded developments. In many local areas the specialised Merchant's street is a way of regenaration.

In all cases the cultural investments have to strengthened by urban development, renewal of building stock and the urban open spaces. In this aspect urban landscape architecture has an important role in the improvement of the character and the environment quality, together with strengthening the local ecological processes, like rising the green cover, decreasing the heat island effect, increasing the rain water infiltration, etc.

I hope I could add some ideas for your research.

There are many factors that affect participation in tourism, gender is just one of these. I think that the cultural values of the societies are one of the most important influential in tourism participation. And I think this can only be overcome with education in early ages. For example the perception of sustainability that develops at an early age can change the role of gender and also other factors. At the same time, incentives on social tourism will affect tourism participation positively and will discourage differences.

You may check out my profile on RG to see if my work on "Food Tourism in Local Economic Development and National Branding... " would be of help.

Best regards.

Dear Dr. Sheth,

You know the nature of common people.

Most of them through the plastic packets, foam (plastic) plates, plastic glasses etc. in the drain instead of garbage box after their use in festival/ feast/ occasions etc.

Preparation of rules to use compulsorily the biodegradable plates etc. in all festivals or punishment for throwing of plastic packets in drain etc. will not work.

COMPLETE BAN on production of such things is THE ONLY WAY to control their use in India.

Many biodegradable alternatives ( as plate made by Sal leaves) are available in India.

But our politicians may not agree to do it due to the pressure of plastic lobby and some other related reasons, I think.

Dear Issam Sir,

Slowly and gradually the two conflicting parties have met at common point. Frontier mentality is now changed to Sustainable mentality and it is possible to have liaison with traditional authorities to accomplish dear Dickson's objectives.

The concept of sustainable development is the concept of needs and limitations imposed by technology and society on environment’s ability to meet the present and future needs. The concept provides a frame work for the integration of the environmental policies and development strategies. The development should not endanger the natural systems that support life on earth.

Many industries today operate with “frontier mentality” This kind of mentality is also called as “human-centered” view. The philosophy of such people is founded on wrong assumptions as under:

With this mentality of negative attitude towards the environment the advancement in Science and technology increased the human ability to use the earth’s resources and continuously increased the damage.

Since last two to three decades there is environmental awareness. People know that we belong to the ‘world of finite nature of resources’. The constant exploitation of the nature for material consumption can only bring danger leading to climate change and extinct of human life on the earth.

Hence the concept of sustainable development leads us to new resource consumption strategies. The people with the sustainable attitude towards nature want balance between ‘ecology’ and ‘economy’. They rely upon the basic ideas that

The philosophy of sustainable development aims at meeting the basic needs of all downtrodden and deprived people in this world, the opportunities to satisfy their desires and needs for “the good life”. This can overcome the problems of poverty and lead to conservative approach. Further it is a fact that the people in the world are living longer and the global population is on the constant rise.

With the green buildings and smart cities concept , I am confident that all traditional authorities will start using eco-friendly material because environmental resources are common.

It is a definite yes. It is a protective policy adopted by the invading religion promoters to ensure segregation of their followers.

Hi

I think it is depend on the type of festival

Absolutely. I'm close to finishing my write-up, but am still interested in the sector and the potential of social enterprise in rural regions more broadly. Thank you for telling me about it. Do you know where I can access it?

If you have an interest, then the best place for information is https://www.plunkett.co.uk/community-shops who also have a conference this Wednesday https://www.plunkett.co.uk/Event/inspiring-rural-communities-together-conference-2017

This paper touches upon your question:

Hall, R. L., Rodegheir, M., & Useem, B. (1986). Effects of education on attitude to protest. American Sociological Review, 51 (4), 564–573.

I hope that it helps!

Ah!! now I get it--you are talking about firecrackers, yes? one word-- crackers are something to eat. I only mean oto clarify, as the question puzzled me.

We launched BookCrossing points (or zone) under the patronage of the university library at various festivals. Not to say that these points was very popular, but I think that we have achieved our goals in promoting the library.

Not sure beauty in the look but perhaps beauty in the heart can save the world.

Hi Mick,

Right on point! I look forward to the chance to be part of a group who wants to try to model this out even better so that those who are 'new to the field' have somewhere to start. 

And I agree... we have a few more bricks to lay in the wall of MGM theory just to get some definitions, context, and reporting a bit more standardized so that comparisons between events, geographies, different community sizes, etc. can be more relevant. 

See you at WCDEM in Toronto in April 2017.

Cheers, 

Adam

If you have not already read about basic motivational theories, I would suggest to do so, for the theoretical foundation of your research. Self determination theory, among others, works well for a wide variety of phenomena for me. A handy, yet scholarly remarkable website with explanations and resources: http://selfdeterminationtheory.org/

Thematic festivals, political events, cultural activities, sport events, religious meetings, etc., and can be held at an national& international level. festivals are organized in order to answer the specific needs of a community. Many of the buildings built for different important events i.e. world Expo. Festivals help promoting the areas in which they take place, attract numerous tourists, and can be regarded as a new type of tourism & positioning the festival on newer market segments.I send some links about your query-

Dear Jeamil,

As Christophe noted, this topic is so typically French and Québécois that I am affraid I shall also indicate you articles in French, mostly about the urban impact of the Avignon Theatre festival:
