With the increased role of local authorities in creating cultural policy, gathering information on how successful and sustainable local heritage conservation programs are established will be very valuable in crafting future policies. This dissertation investigated the development of local government heritage conservation policies in the City of San Fernando, Pampanga in the Philippines in order to determine (1) predictors of community support for heritage conservation policy – why communities support heritage conservation policy and what characteristics or elements of communities lead them to support heritage conservation policies, (2) factors that lead to the adoption and implementation of heritage conservation policies or policy drivers of heritage conservation policy, and (3) given the deeper understanding of community support and policy drivers, the relationship between these predictors and drivers with heritage conservation policy management and sustainability. It did this by being cognizant of the lack of homogeneity across communities, with actors, factors, contexts, and nuances specific to each community.
Implementing two component studies, the dissertation used mixed methods, which interprets and integrates information drawn from the combined strength of both quantitative and qualitative data, following the convergent design (Creswell and Plano Clark, 2018; Harrison et al., 2020) and guided by the Rigorous Mixed Methods framework (Harrison, Reilly and Creswell, 2020). This first study used a self-administered online survey to collect data from stakeholders and ordinary residents of the City of San Fernando, Pampanga which was analyzed using Structural Equation Modelling (SEM). In the second study, guided by the naturalist paradigm (Guba and Lincoln, 1982; Lincoln and Guba, 1985), transcripts of semi-structured interviews conducted by City Tourism and Investment Promotion Office (CTIPO) were coded and analyzed using the grounded theory approach. It combined several coding approaches, specifically a blended approach (Skjott Linneberg, and Korsgaard, 2006), with the the Gioia Methodology (Gioia et al., 2012) and Ünlü-Qureshi instrument (Qureshi and Ünlü, 2020)
The integration of qualitative and quantitative data and results was guided by the dimensions of the mixed methods research integration trilogy (Fetters and Molina-Azorin, 2017). The dissertation identified predictors for community support for heritage conservation policy, policy drivers of the heritage conservation policy process, and the relationship between these predictors and drivers and within the heritage conservation policy process and produced three models: (1) predictors of community support for local heritage conservation policy, (2) heritage conservation policy drivers, and (3) managerial implications for heritage conservation policy sustainability, and a framework for heritage conservation, management, and sustainability. The data suggested that in the case of San Fernando, (1) knowledge and awareness, (2) sense of belonging and attachment, (3) place image and community identity, and (4) evaluation of value are predictors of support for heritage conservation policies, with evaluation of value as a mediator for the first three. It also identified two major policy drivers: (1) good governance, and (2) heritage consciousness, and six specific policy drivers: (1) understanding the dynamics of heritage conservation, (2) addressing program sustainability, (3) stakeholder integration in the policy process, (4) appreciation of process-oriented governance, (5) manifesting pride and attachment, and (6) awareness of long-term outcomes of policies, that serve as factors leading to the adoption and implementation of heritage conservation policies. The predictors and policy drivers were incorporated into a single framework for heritage conservation policy management and sustainability.

This paper discusses some of the research done for my PhD thesis at the faculty of architecture of Silpakorn University in Bangkok, Thailand. The thesis is titled Nation Brand Strategies: National Identity, Architecture and Cultural Heritage Value: A case study of the Thai Pavilion at the World Expos. It includes the review of Thailand's history of place branding at World Expositions since 1862. This paper discusses the changes over time, the role of architecture and cultural heritage at the World Expos as well as branding strategies using national culture and the long history of sustainable goals at the World Expos. One of the main potential brand gaps identified was the choice of traditional Thai architecture instead of more contemporary architecture for the pavilions. A suggested solution is to this gap is use the symbolic elements of the traditional architecture, but use modern physical elements. An important conclusion drawn is that the World Expo is mostly a branding event to attract visitors to the country, rather than an architecture or technology show, despite its long history and origins in that area. World Expositions can help to earn respect of potential visitors for the culture, and help with preservation.

Relevance of the research topic is conditioned by the need for scientific and methodological support of the competitiveness of international tourism. The article analyzes modern trends in international tourism. The preferences of the international tourist are determined. Favorable factors that determine the superiority of international tourism are determined. During the research, a systematic analysis was carried out, which makes it possible to comprehensively consider the problems of international tourism, analyze the advantages and disadvantages, and draw up reasoned conclusions. The article analyzes the state of competition in the market using the following indicators. The first indicator is the market concentration ratio (CR – Market Share Concentration Ratio). The second indicator is the index of the market concentration of Herfindahl-Hirschman (HHI – Herfindahl-Hirschman Index). Franchising and reengineering of processes are considered as tools for increasing the competitiveness of international tourism.

The event featured performances of Emirati artists
In the thriving city of Moscow, Manezh Square, also known as the location for the Summer in Moscow event, was particularly lively for five days thanks to The UAE days in Moscow programme, organised to celebrate the UAE’s national heritage.
It was an honour for the audience to witness a traditional Emirati wedding. The beautiful bride, adorned in a spectacular dress, was accompanied by many women as she made her way to the groom’s house to perform the traditional ritual known as Ayala. It was fascinating to observe the traditions. Following this, there was a joyful collective dance and music session, which was also very pleasurable to watch. The event featured performances by the Al Otaiba and Al Mazyoud bands, a fashion show with Emirati music, multiple stalls offering national treats and popular UAE dishes, henna tattoo stands, and a photo exhibition showcasing stunning views of the UAE.
The success of the event highlighted Moscow as a prime destination for tourists interested in Russian culture, its rich history, and learning about different other cultures. Moreover, various international events held at popular tourist attractions introduced residents to the cultures of other countries.
This programme has helped Russia and the UAE strengthen their social, cultural and economical bonds. As of early February, there were around 150 flights a week from Moscow to Dubai, Abu Dhabi and Sharjah.
Moscow, as a a top tourist destination, attracted over 2.3 million tourists in 2023 from all across the world. This year, a business mission to the UAE was held on February 7, and in May, a delegation from Moscow took part in the ATM exhibition in Dubai. The purpose of their participation at the event was to promote Moscow as a top tourist destination by showcasing the city’s rich history, tourist attractions and visitor safety.
