The Unesco Global Geopark model for sustainable development in marginalised areas: Investigating perceptions and social acceptance in a local context
UNESCO Global Geoparks (UGGPs) are increasingly recognized as a strategic tool to unlock sustainable development in marginalised areas. However, its effectiveness rests on its social acceptance by local stakeholders. To maximize its impact, targeted actions are needed to enhance the perceived value of UGGPs as a development tool and align them with local priorities. This paper addresses two key research questions: 1) How do local stakeholders per…
Towards policy Mixes Formulation to Support Green Transitions in Rural Areas: A methodological Approach
Rural areas are crucial for green transitions, due to their resource‐based economies and extensive scope, covering over 80% of EU territory and housing 30% of the population. Achieving sustainability in rural areas is complex, given the multiple socio‐stechnical factors involved. This highlights the need for a comprehensive ‘policy mix’ that goes beyond myopic decisions focused on isolated issues and instead embraces a long‐term perspective on re…
Uncovering network changes in the evolution of an innovation niche
The present paper aims at unravelling the networking dynamics regarding the evolution of an innovation-niche, by looking at its network configuration over time. To this end, we investigate the actors’ role within the network as well as the network architecture. We employ the social network analysis (SNA) to four different but interrelated types of networks characterising the Italian biofuel industry. Each network was investigated in both its deve…
An evaluation of the impact of mitigation policies on health and the economy by managing social distancing during outbreaks
Spatial perspectives on niche empowerment: An agent-based model
This paper aims at increasing our understanding of the role of space dimensions in niche evolution dynamics. To accomplish this goal, an agent-based model is developed, locating agents in geographical space. The model is then used to show how local niches built on geographical proximity perform differently from global niches built on relative proximity, in terms of the timing of niche creation, the velocity of niche maturation, average profit, en…
