The role of waqf in economic development is evident in how waqf instruments enable various economic activities. In Perak, Majlis Agama Islam dan Adat Melayu Perak (MAIPk) manages the development of waqf assets by acting as sole trustee in the development of waqf property in that state. This study analyzes the role of waqf in the economic development of Perak. The primary method used to obtain data was through interviews with MAIPk about the management and development of waqf projects. Secondary data was collected through various references such as books, theses and journals. The data thus collected was analyzed using thematic analysis according to the focus of the study. The study found that waqf played a role in the economic development of Perak’s health, education, and the improvement of income and its community’s standard of living. The outstanding development in the health sector was the construction of a waqf hemodialysis center. In the educational sector, waqf funds and instruments, contributed to the construction of the Islamic University Sultan Azlan Shah Dormitory (UISAS) and Maahad Tahfiz. Waqf also contributed to improving the income and living standards of the community in Perak through various projects such as the Wakaf Business Centre (WBC) project, waqf housing, and waqf boats to develop the economy of the community in Perak.

In today's modern world, creative expression is opening up new dimensions of business and new opportunities for economic development. One field of economic activities in which this is evident is tourism. Creativity in tourist destinations can be viewed in different ways, for example, through creative action (undertaken by destination management, residents, entrepreneurs, and tourists) and through creative spaces and creative events. Creativity plays a vital role in all elements involved in the creation of a destination's offering, regardless of which form of tourism is the focus of development efforts. Given the growing role of self-actualisation of individuals in society and the displaying of social status, creativity has in the past 20 years begun to positively impact on economy activities taking place in tourist destinations. Creativity is especially important in developing cultural tourism in all its sub-types, where it is seen as a means of animating and adding value to cultural heritage locations.

The article addresses possibilities and barriers to economic activity and development in the Oshana region of Northern Namibia. The focus is on the role of local embeddedness of economic activities in attaining economic development. A network perspective, based on theories of value chains that are embedded both in social relations and spatially, is selected as the analytical framework. The value chains of local black entrepreneurs in the study area are short. Moreover, the analysis reveals that social obligations may impede economic development, but that such practices are diminishing. The economic dominance and competition from South Africa is the main impediment to economic development in Northern Namibia. Local political embeddedness is shallow and political measures have not significantly reduced the implications of this dominance.

Access To Finance

Inequality between men and women is widely acknowledged across many parts of the globe. For example, among paid employees in Ghana, women’s average hourly earnings were around 67% of men. The disparity in earnings perpetuates poverty. Access to financial resources is widely regarded as crucial machinery to addressing this gender disparity and reducing poverty among women. Microfinance is a conduit to increasing access to finance among poor urban and rural women who usually lack the collateral to access loans from traditional financial institutions. Notwithstanding the vital role microfinance institutions play, there is no consensus on the assertion that its impact is generally favourable. Therefore, this study investigated the role of microfinance on health, education, and standard of living, as dimensions of poverty reduction in the Techiman Municipality of Ghana. The results indicate that access to microfinance services positively correlates to health, education, living standards and poverty reduction. Therefore, it is essential to extend the reach of microfinance services to increase access further to finance and, consequently, accelerate the rate of poverty reduction within the Municipality.
