Sustainable development is a very popular conception since many years. In practice there could be many difficulties.Economic, social and ecological systems are too complex to see all the consequences clearly. After all, sustainable criteria are indispensable for responsible planning.Tourism is one of the world’s dynamically developing economic sectors. But according to this development, we have to confront with a lot of negative effects, like air pollution, or mass. With globalization, the opportunities for tourism increase: thanks to modern transport, places which were too far to be accessible before are now able to be reached. But there are consequences to this expansion. Unfortunately, growth e.g. in air transport causes considerable environmental damage.In today’s fast-paced world, the sanctity of nature, a soundproof environment, clean air and rural life have become increasingly important. With the growth of demand and tourism globalized, these values can damage or disappear in a short time.  So, in tourism, it is vital to project development plans with sustainable principles.Just as other countries, in Hungary, the development of sustainable tourism is slowly becoming a priority. Fortunately, in plans for the next few years, there appear more concrete ideas on ways to make sustainable tourism grow.In my study, I assess Hungary’s position in sustainable tourism, examining how sustainable tourism indicators fit in sustainable development indicators and how can we measure aims of sustainable tourism.

Economic development is closely linked to the mobility needs of communities. The main pillars supporting sustainable development are society, the environment and the economy, and the diagnosis of the current situation, the identification of solutions, the development plans and their implementation lead to sustainable development in terms of transport activity. As the Petroşani Basin has a high degree of urbanization, the negative effects of increased road traffic are particularly pronounced in the central areas of the cities. Of the environmental factors, air is the most obvious and most important factor in human health. Taking into account the national and European Community targets in terms of climate change mitigation, the reduction of air and noise pollution and greenhouse gas emissions is becoming a priority objective. Thus, by limiting the growth of road traffic and the adoption of strategic measures in the Petroşani Basin, a reduction in carbon dioxide emissions, nitrogen oxides and particulate matter levels will also be achieved. According to these trends, achieving a clean public transport system and sustainable (like electrical buses) and having infrastructure for the use of electric bicycles and trotters can do for sure reducing the pollutant emissions.

There is a specific way of approaching sustainable development issues in S. Kozłowski’s works. He takes into account a wide spectrum of problems from political, social, economic ones to moral and ethical with reference to the natural environment (ecodevelopment). Frequently, he refers to systemic approaches e.g. researches on harmonized development pointing out the need for using such a perspective. In the researches on sustainable development, there are models including social, technical, and ecological systems. The models take into account a human factor, environment, techniques as well as energy and information. As there is a need for including long term actions related to environmental protection as well as economic mechanisms to carry out sustainable development plans, a new tool emerged called ecological control. Professor Stefan Kozłowski’s approach towards sustainable development including relations between a human and nature accentuates the meaning of quality and the need for natural environmental protection in a process of civilization development of a global society. In his works “eco-development” is used interchangeably with “sustainable development”. Therefore according to S. Kozłowski, the idea of sustainable development cannot be realized in isolation from ecological issues.

The selected protected areas represent significant examples for analyzing the tourism offer whose results largely interpret the state and the perspective of sustainable development. Considering these indicators at the level of tourism development in the analyzed protected areas can contribute to the development of planning models and strategies of sustainable development. On the other hand, with proper implementation, the values of all elements of the environment that is significant for the users of the areas are directly improved which directly enables the sustainable development of a destination. Research data have been collected through a questionnaire, processed and displayed by the Chi-Square and Friedman Tests, which identified average values and obvious differences in displayed values of sustainable tourism development indicators in selected protected areas.

Culture plays an essential role in the sustainable and economic development of cities. There are currently more and more cities that recognize their importance and include it in their development plans, thus demonstrating its transversality. However, the prevailing question is how to measure its impact. In this sense, an alternative proposal to the UNESCO Culture for Development Indicators (CDIS) for evaluation is presented, consisting of 27 indicators organized in seven categories. The model is applied in the cities of Stockholm, Bilbao, and the Guadalajara metropolitan area (ZMG, consisting of the municipalities of Guadalajara, San Pedro Tlaquepaque, Zapopan, Tlajomulco de Zúñiga, Tonalá and El Salto). These cities have been chosen for their public policies and the cultural and creative projects that have been carried out there in recent decades. Lastly, the results show that cities that position culture in a cross-cutting manner achieve greater sustainable development.

The article emphasizes the fact that traditional socio-economic indicators do not reflect the challenges of sustainable development adequately, and this is particularly true for the widely-used GDP indicator. In this connection the elaboration of sustainable development indicators is needed, taking into account economic, social and environmental factors. For Russia, adaptation and use of concepts and basic principles of calculation methods for adjusted net savings index (World Bank) and human development index (UNDP) as integral indicators can be promising. The authors have developed the sustainable development index for Russia, which aggregates and allows taking into account balanced economic, social and environmental indicators.

AbstractRegarding the economic crises and the slow recovery that still continues, we believe that a solution can be improving the capacity to research and innovate in order to achieve sustainable development. Another key issue of the paper is about developing the cooperation between academia and business. The challenge of this development is how to increase the amount to finance research and innovation that can be implemented in the economy. As a global solution, to this problem we can recommend, for example, reducing tax evasion and by fiscal education. Also particular sources have to be found in order to develop innovation on SME level. It is essential for innovation to make quality research in order to be better prepared and increase adaptability to economic cycles. The aim of the paper is to find out how service innovation and cooperation between academia and business can enhance sustainable development indicators. The conclusions of the paper are structured in particular proposals and recommendations.
