The goal of the OCOP program is to identify and promote competitive, marketable products that originate from local and indigenous resources. Since its nationwide implementation in 2018, nearly 5000 OCOP products have been evaluated and certified for OCOP status. The present study interviewed 600 Vietnamese consumers and employed the latent class choice model to investigate the consumers' willingness to pay for OCOP attributes, including the ethical attributes of traceability information, local production, and fair trade, along with the government “star rating” for the product and the OCOP certification label. Through a choice experiment, we identified two distinct consumer segments, one of which (about 74% of the sample) expressed preference and willingness to pay price premiums for the product attributes and the other which (about 26%) was unwilling to pay for any of the attributes. We also found that the consumers in the “Optimist” segment were willing to pay a price premium for “private” product attributes compared to “public” attributes. Consumers in the “Opponent” segment were characterized as highly price sensitive; they expressed lower levels of concern for the environment and lower preferences for local products. Based on these results, we propose some policy implications for continued development of the OCOP program and local livelihoods.","PeriodicalId":48174,"journal":{"name":"Sustainable Development","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":9.9,"publicationDate":"2024-07-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141656629","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

New approaches to measure and assess the sustainability of cities can support the development of actions to improve the different dimensions of sustainability. The research aims to propose an urban sustainability index and a maturity model to evaluate the sustainability of cities and monitor it over time. To achieve this objective, a maturity model was developed based on three different techniques: Data Envelopment Analysis, Artificial Neural Networks, and Analysis of Variance. The proposed index and the maturity model were applied to evaluate a sample of 504 Brazilian cities. The main results observed are: (a) the presence of five distinct levels of city performance (maturity), grouped via machine learning and validated via inferential statistics; (b) no city was considered fully sustainable and only 4.76% of the cities studies are at the highest level of urban sustainability maturity; (c) from a joint application of the three quantitative techniques and specific targets for each indicator could be identified, and the performance of cities classified over time. Based on the results, it is hoped that policy makers will have more objective and standardized tools to collect useful information and be able to reinforce critical strategies or chart new policies towards sustainable urban development. It is also hoped that the joint application of the techniques can shed light on new urban sustainability assessment models.","PeriodicalId":48174,"journal":{"name":"Sustainable Development","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":9.9,"publicationDate":"2024-07-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141659524","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Sustainable agriculture presents entirely new prospects by prioritizing the productive worth of human, social, and natural capital—all of which are abundant in Asian nations or can be replenished at a relatively low financial expense. This paper sets out to explore the role of technological innovation, renewable energy use, financial development, globalization, and institutional quality on the environmental sustainability of agriculture, measured by the greenhouse gas emissions from the agricultural sector for top 10 agricultural economies of Asia from 1990 to 2019. To attain the above objective, we employ a variety of econometric models capable of accounting for cross‐sectional dependence, including the CS‐ARDL model and the Dumitrescu‐Hurlin Panel Granger Causality tests. The result indicates that technological innovation as well as the use of renewable energy can reduce the greenhouse gas emissions from the agricultural sector and thus contribute towards enhancing environmental performance of this sector in short and long run. Although globalization result is revealed to be positive, it turns out to be insignificant in both short and long run. Financial development exerts positive and significant effects on agricultural emissions while the institutional quality is found to be increasing the agricultural environmental performance. Finally, we provide policy recommendations based on the results of the study.","PeriodicalId":48174,"journal":{"name":"Sustainable Development","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":9.9,"publicationDate":"2024-07-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141663697","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Integrating environmental concerns into social policy planning could help build community resilience and support sustainable development. This study employed policy analysis and stakeholder engagement to identify key environmental issues, policy gaps, and strategies for integrating environmental considerations into social policies across various sectors in Africa. The study found a significant lack of integration of environmental concerns into social policy across areas like disaster management, agriculture, urban planning, healthcare access, and infrastructure development policies. As a percentage of respondents, the top environmental issues were flooding (32%), drought/desertification (13%), and food security/agriculture (11%), with farmers (35.4%) and women (21.7%) being the most vulnerable to climate change. Most community stakeholders (87.5%) emphasized the importance of integrating environmental considerations into social policy, with 56.25% rating it a high priority. They underscored the need for more locally driven planning, ecological monitoring, land restoration, diversified livelihoods, and climate change adaptation support through social policies to enhance environmental sustainability. This study's novelty lies in its comprehensive approach to understanding and addressing the complex interplay between environmental challenges and social policy planning in Africa. The findings emphasize the urgent need for policymakers to develop cross‐sectoral national and local policies that use participatory processes to prioritize environmental sustainability, adaptation, community empowerment, and alignment with sustainable development goals while being responsive to continuing environmental uncertainty and change.","PeriodicalId":48174,"journal":{"name":"Sustainable Development","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":9.9,"publicationDate":"2024-07-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141669994","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
