“…Food security exists when all people have access to physically, socially, and economically sufficient, nutritious, and safe food that full fills their dietary demands [1]. COVID-19 is causing a devastating multi-sectoral impact on all local, national, continental, and global levels [2][3][4]. Since its emergence (31 December 2019), COVID-19 is overwhelming the food security of individuals and households [5][6][7][8].…”

Background Food security is substantially affected directly by COVID-19 and/or indirectly by the measures adopted for the prevention of COVID-19 transmission. The aim of this systematic review is to summarize the impact of COVID-19 on food security and identify the most compromised food security dimension to ease the food security regulators and actors’ intervention prioritisation. Methodology Primary research focused on the impact of COVID-19 on food security will be searched from three online databases (PubMed, Web of Science, and Scopus), manually using a google scholar search engine, and studies’ reference list were also manually searched. The prevalence of food insecurity in each study and the most compromised food security dimension including their associated factors will be identified. The food insecurity before and after COVID-19 emergence and the status of food security dimension before and after COVID-19 will be compared and interpreted. Discussion The heterogeneity of the studies and the factors for the variability of outcomes will be discussed. COVID-19 had a negative impact on food security if the food insecurity prevalence before the emergence of COVID-19 is less than during the COVID-19 pandemic. Other confounding factors that can contribute to the high food insecurity prevalence like natural disasters, war, and instability will be considered in addition to COVID-19. Registration This systematic review protocol is registered in PROSPERO under the registration number: CRD42022325475.

“…Data-processing technologies (high share of software components/low level of connectivity) aid in data analysis and provide data-driven input for control and decision-making. These technologies involve big data analytics more adopted in the tourism sector ( Costa and Pereira, 2019 ; del Vecchio et al, 2021 ; Gössling, 2020 ; Mondal, Sahoo, Paria, Chakraborty and Alamri, 2021 ), ( Mehta and Sharma, 2021 ; Van et al, 2020 ), real-time information, translation, connection with weather data for cultivation, monitoring ( Karagiannis and Metaxas, 2020 ), and the Multi-Criteria Decision-Making (MCDM)-based framework combining the Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process (FAHP) and the Weighted Aggregated Sum Product Assessment (WASPAS) used to evaluate and select online food delivery ( Nguyen, Lin and Dang, 2021 ). The latter are considered as simulation and modelling technologies.…”

Sustainable innovation is a solution for the hospitality and tourism (H&T) industries to cope with the COVID-19 crisis, build resilience, and ensure survival post-pandemic. The primary aim of our review is to systematically identify and critically review the literature on sustainable innovation in H&T amid COVID-19 (conducted in 2020 and 2021), in order to synthesize and classify prevalent types, antecedents, and outcomes of sustainable innovation. The authors present a comprehensive review of the 58 articles on sustainable innovation in H&T through the Web of Science (WoS) database, spanning over 2 years (2020–2021). This review demonstrates that since the beginning of COVID-19, H&T have strongly mobilized network technologies (especially social media and digital platforms) and data-processing technologies (especially Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML)) in comparison with physical-digital interface technologies (especially Virtual Reality (VR)), while physical-digital process technologies remain very limited in these industries. Several relevant antecedents of the adoption of sustainable innovation, more specifically digital technologies, have been identified at multiple levels of analysis, including the organizational, managerial, and stakeholder levels. Our research also reveals several consequences of the adoption of sustainable innovation in H&T. These consequences were congregated according to the three main dimensions related to sustainability in economic, social, and environmental outcomes. This study provides important practical implications for the H&T sectors in the digital era and post-pandemic. The current research is the first study to systematically and critically review sustainable innovation in an H&T context.

“…Communication, mobile technologies (connected rooms, robotic room services and contactless hosting, social media, drone tourism, geospatial technologies, e-shop, etc.) may provide benefits for the tourism industries in terms of robust for health-safety and sanitary measures (Caballini et al, 2021;Mondal et al, 2021;Srivastava et al, 2021), by limiting social interaction between visitors and local population by avoiding congested areas or even minimizing massive international tourism (Streimikiene and Korneeva, 2020). Beyond the health crisis, digital technologies open the doors for sustainable business model innovations that focus on providing services that allow tourists with disabilities and the elderly to overcome the physical and space difficulties while staying at home and hiring local guides to provide real-time, interactive, and personalized tours (Kwok and Koh, 2021).…”

Hospitality, which suffered a huge blow during the Covid-19 period and had to adapt its operation to pandemic measures, heads for its recovery. Innovation is one of the ways to get out of an unfavourable situation having in mind that health risks can represent a significant factor affecting participation in tourism. The paper specifies the perception of the necessity of digital innovations application as health protection factor and sustainable mean of hospitality sector development. It shows how of tourism participant in domestic condition of Slovak republic perceive the need of their application to hospitality services. Through the questionnaire method it examined opinion of domestic visitors in hospitality and its direction towards the digitization of services in this sphere, and subsequently tested by Mann-Whitney and Kruskall-Wallis tests. The results show that Slovak tourists treat digital innovation in hospitality services as the ones, that are a necessary part of tourism services portfolio. Their specifics can also be defined in terms of health protection. They can act as an element of health protection by eliminating contact among individual tourism participants. At the same time, they also perceive them as a means that tends to keep the hospitality industry alive even in the post-pandemic period.
