“…In-depth phase: Construction of a SWOT analysis of the values and criticalities of the area affected by the design hypothesis of the cycling route, based on reports from the community involved: participatory inspections, interviews, administration of questionnaires, and interaction via the web (online forum). From the evidence of the strengths/weaknesses and the opportunity/threat analysis (SWOT approach), a vision will be shared among the stakeholders involved, aimed at defining a systemic decision-making strategy [54]; • Proposal phase: In this step, in order to ensure the maximum connection between the partners, the working groups will be organized based on themes identified among the various intervention proposals developed for the design of the cycling path in terms of the services offered, ancillary infrastructures, enhancement of places and/or areas, and technical choices of materials and furnishings. Then, there will be a period of sharing and verifying the work done, where the results of the participatory process are assembled and the final formulation of the cycling path project is produced, which could be formally approved by the municipalities concerned as a preliminary feasibility study for the real design process.…”

This study aims to present a strategy for the revitalization of the Sicilian “internal areas”, recognizing a directional tool, together with the integration of self-centered actions of slow tourism. The design was specifically located in the Taormina–Etna tourist district (an area of north-eastern Sicily that includes 60 municipalities) which, in rethinking the post-pandemic restart, aims at the development of a mobile system of cycling tourism able to interconnect cultural peculiarities, environmental characteristics, and landscape values. This paper also examines key features and interpretations, and develops a strategy based on a slow travel framework as an alternative means of achieving success in the Sicilian hinterland. Starting from the current financial and environmental crisis, therefore, the paper finds explanations and solutions, in which we try to conceive of the economy and ecology as systems that not only open to one another, but mutually determine one another in defining new, self-sustaining local development processes. In order to build a competitive alternative to help less favorable regions, it is necessary to move within the scope of investments by a public system capable of planning resilient strategies based on sustainable principles.

Tourism bridges different aspects together. It depends most of its assets on the abundance of nature. This study was conducted in Danawan Lake, located at Sitio Darayaw, Panaytayan, Mansalay, Oriental Mindoro. This study, in partnership with the local government unit, is focused on the potential assessment of Danawan, a mountain lake, with a specific lens on gauging community perception when it comes to tourism development. Aside from the physical attributes of a destination, community participation in tourism development is very important as it will dictate its sustainability. This ethnographic study employed a qualitative approach from SWOT analysis through observation, mapping, and personal interviews. The results showed that Danawan Lake has potential for adventure and ecotourism, but its sustainable development requires careful consideration of both strengths and weaknesses, opportunities, and threats. The indigenous community living near the lake has signified their acceptance of tourism activities and development in the area if advanced communication is considered. Collaboration and inclusivity should be at hand to attain the desired goals reflecting that the community considers the lake sacred. Future researchers may use other alternative potential assessment tools to gain more in-depth findings.

“…It's important to note that the transportation system is in an aggressive domain if Internal Factor Evaluation (IFE) is greater than 2.5 and External Factor Evaluation (EFE) is greater than 2.5. The West Papua transportation system is aggressive, with IFE=3.0 and EFE=2.86; as a result, SO techniques can be identified to take advantage of opportunities and mitigate the strength of threats [48].…”

Manokwari Regency's development of a road network system is crucial to accelerating the improvement of the status of national roads, which are currently disrupting the convenience of road use and the surrounding community due to the degree of saturation being in category F, which includes limited traffic flow, low speed, volume below capacity, and a lack of safety features. Strategy III of West Papua Province's constructed road network system adaptations to local contexts and national hospitality strategies is selected using the Equal Important, Expert Judgment, and Analytical Hierarchy Process methodologies. Next, conduct a SWOT analysis, leading you to an IFE of 3.0 and an EFE of 2.86. To take advantage of chances and lessen the impact of threats, it is necessary first to identify the strategies of aggressive SO. Specifically, 64 SO techniques were identified by having managers and city planners mix 8 strength elements with 8 opportunity components. Unfortunately, few of these chimerical strategies performed well. West Papua's managers and city planners identified six feasible SO solutions to improve the city's transportation system.
