The purpose of this article is to study the directions of improving the activities of the health resort complex, which can have a significant impact on the socio-economic development of the region, as part of their development strategy. The service sector is recovering faster during the recession, successfully adapting to the crisis due to low costs and rapid response. Tourist and recreational services have a great potential for development due to the growing demand. The medical and health tourism as well as spa complex can be an important element of the strategy of the region, positively affecting other industries and the quality of life of the local population. The analysis of the stages of modern development of the health resort complex, its state in the country and in the Southern Federal District is carried out. The financial and economic indicators of the activity of the specialized enterprises are analyzed, the constraining factors are evaluated. It is shown that the existing potential is not sufficiently realized against the background of growing demand and low financial capabilities of the population. Spa treatment helps to solve important strategic problems but the accumulated structural problems make it vulnerable to the current market conditions of operation, in this regard, a set of measures is necessary to reduce the impact of negative factors. The recommendations that will have a positive impact on the implementation of regional development strategies especially in the regions with resort and recreational specialization are given.

Purpose – There are few studies that have studied the relationship between Transformational leadership (TL) and organisation commitment (OC), but there are very few studies on the service sector especially in the Indian context. This study aims to fill the gap in literature by empirically examining the impact of four dimensions of TL using Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire (MLQ) on the Affective Commitment (AC) of the employees, within the context of the service sector in Bengaluru. Design/methodology/approach – A total of two hypotheses were proposed for testing transformational leadership using Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire (MLQ) questionnaire, (Bass and Avolio, 1997) and five items of affective organization commitment developed by Allen and Meyer (1996) was used for affective commitment. The questionnaire was administered to 210 employees working in various industries in the service sector in Bengaluru to measure the impact of TL on the AC of the respondents. Findings – The analysis of the data collected shows that TL has a positive impact on the affective commitment of the employees. In particular, the results of an empirical investigation revealed that individualized influence and individual consideration by the transformational leader had a significant impact on the affective commitment level of the employees. The employees in the hospitality industry had a difference in opinion compared to IT, Banking & education sector employees on the intellectual stimulation by the leader and their affective commitment towards the organization. Originality/value – This paper contributes to the existing literature of leadership and OC by providing practical evidence leading to the improvement of information and the understanding of the relationship between TL and AC.

Growing evidences are showing the potential indirect effects of the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) on the health systems of low-resource settings, where diseases such as Tuberculosis, Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) and Malaria represent major killers. Therefore, we performed a retrospective study aimed to evaluate the impact of COVID-19 on Malaria programs in a peripheral region of Sierra Leone, previously involved by the Ebola outbreak in 2015, when malaria care have been impaired since local health systems were overwhelmed by Ebola cases. During COVID-19 in Sierra Leone, we did not notice a significant drop in malaria diagnosis in children, suggesting that a proactive approach in the management of malaria in endemic countries during COVID-19 may have had a positive impact. A comprehensive approach that include also educational activities to sensitize the local population, was useful to guarantee successful malaria diagnosis and treatment, and prevents excess of malaria deaths due to potential disruption of the local health systems related to the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic.

Subject The impact of the China-US trade war on workers in China. Significance Jobs are still being created, but the trade war has exposed and exacerbated structural problems in China’s labour market. Many of the new jobs created in 2019 were low-skilled and low-paid, and there are marked skills gaps in hazardous industries. The state aims to train 50 million workers in three years, targeting rural migrant labourers and those made redundant. Impacts Higher unemployment will not necessarily lead to social instability, but failure to tackle wealth inequality and social injustice will. Slowing domestic consumer demand will hinder China’s movement away from an export-driven economy. Worker protests will rise if new service sector jobs that replace manufacturing jobs fail to provide job security.

The article considers the importance of a displaced university for the economy of the host city. The main directions of the impact of the displaced university on the local economy are analysed. The role of the displaced university for the revenue of the budget of the host city is considered. The example of Donetsk National Technical University shows the importance of displaced university for employment of the local population and reducing the rate of migration. The study aims to determine the impact of displaced universities on the economy of host cities (on the example of Donetsk National Technical University and Pokrovsk city). As a result of moving to the territories controlled by the Ukrainian authorities, the displaced universities, on the one hand, lost a significant part of their assets and found themselves in a difficult situation due to limited resources to continue their core business (training future professionals). On the other hand, the relocation of such universities was the impetus for the further development of host cities. The displaced university provides local youth with the opportunity to obtain higher education without leaving for other cities. Through their activities, displaced universities are creating new jobs for locals. Also, displaced universities are becoming big taxpayers to the local budget. That is why the support of displaced universities by the state and international organizations (granting certain preferences, financial assistance, etc.) will contribute not only to the “survival” of such universities but also to the socio-economic development of host cities. The study found that Donetsk National Technical University as a displaced university has a positive impact on the economy of the city of Pokrovsk: the university uses and pays for utilities provided by local businesses, buys goods and food from local producers. The university pays local taxes and fees to the local budget. Also, the local budget receives the taxes from university staff. Thanks to the activities of the university, about 400 jobs were created in the Pokrovsk city.
