Abstract:

Citizen participation via different investment schemes may be a promising solution to the financing barriers inhibiting energy transition. In this regard, citizens may be approached as potential investors in renewables, but, to mobilize their capital, strategies need to be developed. Much like other services or products seeking to improve their market position, renewable energy investments by citizens also require dedicated efforts to acquire a strong market position. Using a large sample of Greek citizens, this study investigated whether it is possible to identify distinct and addressable cit

Abstract:

In the middle of a great world financial crisis that also affects food security, it is important to characterize the habits of households concerning the buying and wasting food. With this study we intend (1) to uncover the patterns of Portuguese citizens concerning food waste by using a mixed research approach and (2) to identify demographic factors that can influence the production of food waste and that may support initiatives towards the education of society on food waste. We used a random sample of 542 Portuguese citizens to identify consumer profiles and 18 in-depth interviews for better

Abstract:

The European Union is increasingly directing efforts and resources toward promoting the adoption of energy saving measures among citizens, but the effectiveness of these efforts cannot be ensured if the heterogeneity of citizens is neglected. This paper assesses whether Greek citizens present heterogeneity in terms of their energy behavior and investigates whether they can be classified based on the practices they apply to reduce energy costs and their environmental attitudes. To that end, the study collected a representative citizen sample, and k-means cluster analysis was performed. Results

The paper proposes an approach to analyze citizens' comments in e-government using topic modeling and clustering algorithms. The main purpose of the proposed approach is to determine what topics are the citizens' commentaries about written in the e-government environment and to improve the quality of e-services. One of the methods used to determine this is topic modeling methods. In the proposed approach, first citizens' comments are clustered and then the topics are extracted from each cluster. Thus, we can determine which topics are discussed by citizens. However, in the usage of clustering

Cities have been increasingly involved in the development of food policies, becoming key points in achieving food security and fostering the transition to sustainable agri-food systems. The aim of this paper is to identify citizens’ profiles by performing segmentation and profiling according to their socio-economic variables and perception of key factors affecting food security. This is to define appropriate strategies to guide policy makers in a more effective creation of urban food policies.

Drawing on this discussion, the present study goes beyond the dichotomy by keeping political interest conceptually separate from participation in order to improve our understanding of political passivity.

Abstract:

Because edible insects (EI) have been, in recent years, recommended as a nutritious animal protein food with enormous environmental advantages over other sources of animal protein for human consumption, studies aimed at investigating the consumer perspective have become more prominent. Hence, this study intended to examine the perceptions of participants from different countries about the commercialization and economic and social impacts of edible insects. The study was made using a questionnaire survey, and data were collected in Brazil, Croatia, Greece, Latvia, Lebanon, Lithuania, Mexico, Po

Abstract:

The eastern region of Bolivia is of high conservation interest due to the presence of the Chiquitano Dry Forest, Dry Chaco, Pantanal and Cerrado ecoregions. However, this region is under high pressure from various anthropogenic threats, which requires continuous monitoring. An alternative for this monitoring is the use of mobile applications designed under the concept of citizen science, in which local stakeholders are part of the process of obtaining information and finding solutions to environmental problems in their territories. The main objective of this study was to evaluate the informati

Abstract:

Decision-making based on complex human-machine algorithms can lead to discrimination of citizens based on gender, race and other grounds. However, in world science there is no idea of algorithmically conditioned discrimination of citizens by their place of residence. This also applies to the adoption of algorithmic decisions on the socio-economic development of regions. Therefore, the purpose of our study was to detect algorithmic bias in the results of socio-economic clustering of Russian regions. To achieve this goal, it was necessary to identify sensitive operations in cluster analysis that

The reservoir has sunk acres of farmland, resulting in most of the Kandri citizens lose their livelihoods as farmers, and switch to the efforts in the field of tourism. Kandri rural communities in the development of a tourist village has set up a group called Pokdarwis tourism awareness in the form of a tourism cluster.

To classify the territory of a particular cluster a clear delineation of its defining characteristics is required. The methodology of the study includes the development of a passport model of the tourist destination for the certification process, which, in turn, will form the basis of the cluster approach and the division of the territory to the relevant cluster regionalization zones. The proposed algorithm of clustering of tourist zones based on certification of tourist destinations is the research result. It will allow to form the modern efficient competitive tourist market, providing

In fact, the quality of service (QoS) of these daily routine services are based on an assistive observation system. Wireless sensor networks (WSNs), as the key component of IoT, are used here to gather data into surveillance subsystems for supporting the decision making. To enhance the collected data management of the surveillance subsystems, many clusterin

This innovative study focuses on identifying the primary trends in citizens’ decision-making regarding sustainable and healthy water use and the promotion of tap water options. The primary objective of this study was to investigate whether there was a connection between citizen-consumer choices of tap water versus bottled water and their socio-demographic attributes or environmental awareness and consciousness, which both influence the access to and quality of drinking water. The availability, safety and quality of drinking water is a basic human right and an important public health issue. Wat

How does one write about civic activism in a time of no activism, of fatigue, political impasse, and crisis after crisis? What has become most constant is the exceptional: crisis. It is to the latter that this essay is devoted. It addresses the question: How do elites and citizens address, use or lose political crises? The conceptual cluster of the analysis is built on the triad national populism, post- democracy, and crisis.
