Today, tourism represents a large part of the global economy. Tourism, which has become a widespread activity of the modern world, has generated a diversified marketing sector with motivations such as experiencing different natural conditions and different cultures. In addition to its contribution to regional development, the marketing of cultural tourism promotes multidimensional cultural characteristics that have a positive impact on the welfare of society. Quality of life as an understanding of life satisfaction is increased by the standards offered by tourism. In this context, tourism marketing strategies designed according to intercultural differences provide mutual benefits. The aim of this paper is to highlight possible rhetorical approaches to the attractiveness of cultural diversity that accompany the welfare effect of cultural tourism.

In emerging countries it is considered as the only tool for development and by many communities it is the only chance for increasing the quality of life. If one looks from the socio-cultural perspective, tourism is the source that brings together people from different cultures and traditions with different background. Cultural mapping is a developmental tool that makes use of practical and participatory planning which is an emerging mode of research. Cultural mapping also makes use of the theory of “Making the Intangibles Visible”. Odisha has been the tourist’s paradise as it is a home to many historical and religious places. It is also culturally enriched in many ways, but the fact that it still lags behind cannot be hidden, when compared to other destinations in the world despite the richness in every aspect. Cuttack is a district in eastern Odisha which has a history of 1000 years, known as the Millennium City as well as the Silver City which can be the best example where Cultural Mapping can be used to enhance the image of the destination. The data collection method used in the study is questionnaire method with a sample of 100 respondents is taken by applying random sampling technique. The objective of the study is to find out the areas where Cuttack’s image as cultural city can be established through the innovative tool of cultural mapping.

In the 21st century, the world became a sign of globalization: global conflicts, global disasters, global economy, global Internet, etc. The Polish researcher Casimir Zhigulsky defines globalization as a kind of process, that is, the target set of characteristic changes that develop over time and occur in the modern world. These changes in general are reduced to mutual rapprochement, reduction of distances, the rapid appearance of a large number of different connections, contacts, exchanges, and to increase the dependence of society in almost all spheres of his life from what is happening in other, often very remote regions of the world.

Reasons of high inequality in the modern world are considered in the article. In developing countries it interacts with underdeveloped markets and inefficient government programs to slow growth, which in turn slows progress in reducing poverty. Increasing reach of global markets makes rising inequality more likely and deepens the gap between rich and poor countries. Because global markets work better for the already rich, we should increase the representation of poor countries in global fora.

Zakat is one of the five pillars of Islam which has a function of faith, social and economic functions. Muslims who can pay zakat are required to give at least 2.5 per cent of their wealth. The problem of poverty prevalent in disadvantaged regions because of the difficulty of access to information and communication led to a gap that is so high in wealth and resources. The instrument of zakat provides a paradigm in the achievement of equitable wealth distribution and healthy circulation. Zakat potentially offers a better life and improves the quality of human being. There is a human quality improvement not only in economic terms but also in spiritual terms such as improving religiousity. This study aims to examine the role of zakat to alleviate humanitarian issues in disadvantaged regions such as Sijunjung, one of zakat beneficiaries and impoverished areas in Indonesia. The researcher attempted a Cibest method to capture the impact of zakat beneficiaries before and after becoming a member of Zakat Community Development (ZCD) Program in material and spiritual value. The overall analysis shows that zakat has a positive impact on disadvantaged regions development and enhance the quality of life of the community. There is an improvement in the average of mustahik household incomes after becoming a member of ZCD Program. Cibest model demonstrates that material, spiritual, and absolute poverty index decreased by 10, 5, and 6 per cent. Meanwhile, the welfare index is increased by 21 per cent. These findings have significant implications for developing the quality of life in disadvantaged regions in Sijunjung. Therefore, zakat is one of the instruments to change the status of disadvantaged areas to be equivalent to other areas.

Heart failure (HF) affects more than 5 million people and has an increasing incidence and cost burden. Patients note symptoms of dyspnea and fatigue that result in a decreased quality of life, which has not drastically improved over the past decades despite advances in therapies. The assessment of exercise capacity can provide information regarding patient diagnosis and prognosis, while doubling as a potential future therapy. clinically, there is acceptance that exercise is safe in hf and can have a positive impact on morbidity and quality of life, although evidence for improvement in mortality is still lacking. specific prescriptions for exercise training have not been developed because many variables and confounding factors have prevented research trials from demonstrating an ideal regimen. Physicians are becoming more aware of the indices and goals for hf patients in exercise testing and therapy to provide comprehensive cardiac care. it is further postulated that a combination of exercise training and pharmacologic therapy may eventually provide the most benefits to those suffering from hf.
