Both researchers and Government Agencies see aviation as an important driver for regional development and national integration. Thus, this sector has been a matter of concern for the government who has ways to stimulate the aero activity. The Regional Aviation Development Program (PDAR) has been currently under development implemented in Brazil. This program foresees public investments in airport infrastructure and operational subsidies for airlines to enhance the sector operation and increase the number of locations served by regional aviation. This paper presents a model for estimating passenger demand potential through multiple linear regression to cover the great majority of the federative units (states) of Pernambuco, Paraíba, Rio Grande do Norte, Ceará, and Piauí in the northeast of Brazil. Subsequently, localities are suggested to optimize the resources of the PDAR, and we concluded that it is likely that there are regions with higher demand potential than some regions, which are already served by the airlines. Hence, we assumed that by strategically directing investments to specific localities, companies operate without subsidies, which in turn can be directed to airlines used to integrate the country. This making regional aviation more sustainable leading development to isolated localities, and thus efficiently contributing to reducing the Brazilian social inequality.

The article presents the reasons for which the issue of providing housing to low-income citizens has been a real challenge in Addis Ababa during the recent years and will continue to be, given that its population is growing extremely fast. It examines the tensions between the universal aspirations and the local realities in the case of some of Ethiopia’s most ambitious mass pro-poor housing schemes, such as the “Addis Ababa Grand Housing Program” (AAGHP), which was launched in 2004 and was integrated in the “Integrated Housing Development Program” (IHDP) in 2006. The article argues that the quotidian practices of communities and their socio-economic and cultural characteristics are related to the spatial attributes of co-housing practices. Drawing upon the idea that there is a mutual correspondence between social and spatial structures, it places particular emphasis on the analysis of the IHDP and aims to show that to shape strategies that take into account the social and cultural aspects of daily life of the poor citizens of Addis Ababa, it is pivotal to invite them to take part in the decision-making processes regarding their resettlement. Departing from the fact that a large percentage of the housing supply in Addis Ababa consists of informal unplanned housing, the article also compares the commoning practices in kebele houses and condominium units. The former refers to the legal informal housing units owned by the government and rented to their dwellers, whereas the latter concerns the housing blocks built in the framework of the IHDP for the resettlement of the kebele dwellers. The article analyzes these processes of resettlement, shedding light of the fact that kebele houses were located at the inner city, whereas the condominiums are located in the suburbs. Despite the fact that the living conditions in the condominium units are of a much higher quality than those in the kebele houses, their design underestimated or even neglected the role of the commoning practices. The article highlights the advantages of commoning practices in architecture and urban planning, and how the implementation of participation-oriented solutions can respond to the difficulties of providing housing. It argues that understanding the significance of the endeavors that take into account the opinions of dwellers during the phase of decision-making goes hand in hand with considering commoning practices as a source of architecture and urban planning frameworks for low-cost housing in this specific context. The key argument of the article is that urban planning and architecture solutions in Addis Ababa should be based on the principles of the so-called “negotiated planning” approach, which implies a close analysis of the interconnections between planning, infrastructure, and land.

The Government of Indonesia executed the Indonesia Sanitation Sector Development Program (ISSDP, April 2006 - January 2010), with financial support from the Governments of the Netherlands and Sweden, as well as management support from the World Bank's Water and Sanitation Program (WSP). The program assisted a dozen cities to improve sanitation in a wider sense. It covered safe disposal of human excreta and waste water, local drainage, solid waste management and promotion of hygienic practices. The program was demand-based: the cities brought in their own human and financial resources, but got technical assistance for sanitation situation assessments and mapping, sanitation strategy and program development, and finding additional resources for increased implementation. The program had three major thrusts: (1) develop an enabling sanitation environment, (2) raise sanitation awareness and promote good hygiene, and (3) build city sanitation planning capacities and develop city sanitation strategies. The promotion component included development of poor-inclusive sanitation intervention, assisting men, women and children in the poorest neighborhoods to strengthen good and improve bad sanitation and hygiene conditions and practices. Community empowerment is important in urban sanitation development, but at the same time, requires that the social and technical institutions in charge of empowerment and sanitation adopt new skills and techniques for working with communities. Without the right skills to assist the communities, build their skills, and provide some minimal monitoring of performance afterwards, there is a risk of over-expecting what a community can manage. Community empowerment with gender- and poor-inclusive approaches must be integrated into all stages of urban sanitation development, i.e. (1) the organizational development, (2) review of related existing projects and services, (3) formulation of an overall city sanitation strategy and program, and (4) local project planning. Equitably attention for gender and poor is part of the overall organization, strategy formulation, local action planning, program and projects development and implementation, and monitoring and evaluation of outputs, outcomes and impacts.

Hal ini sangat relevan dengan tagline Universitas Muria Kudus (UMK) yang mengusung motto �Santun, Cerdas dan Berjiwa Wirausaha� sehingga diharapkan lulusan UMK nantinya mandiri menciptakan lapangan kerja sendiri. PPK ini dapat menyiapkan mahasiswa agar mandiri secara finansial sebelum mereka lulus, sehingga tidak bergantung pada pekerjaan � pekerjaan yang disediakan oleh pemerintah maupun dunia industri. Tujuan dari program PPK adalah menghasilkan wirausahawan baru. Pada tahun 2019 terwujud 5 usaha baru yang dijalankan oleh 20 mahasiswa dan alumni dari prodi PBI, Manajemen Bisnis, Teknik Mesin dan Agroteknologi. Metode pelaksanaan kegiatan ini menggunakan teknik coaching & mentoring. Usaha � usaha yang dirintis oleh tenant tersebut adalah budidaya adenium, budidaya jamur tiram, angkringan kopi SEKOPPI, angkringan sushi dan steak, serta sablon. Keberhasilan program ini dipengaruhi oleh banyak faktor, baik faktor pendamping dalam hal ini tim pengabdi maupun faktor mahasiswa. Faktor mahasiswa diantaranya adanya spirit yang lahir dari lingkungan keluarga yang juga memiliki usaha, transformasi nilai yang dilakukan secara akumulatif dalam keluarga dan lingkungan yang mendukung serta adanya bakat yang memungkinkan mahasiswa mudah menerima motivasi untuk melakukan kegiatan yang berorientasi pada munculnya kreativitas dan atau inovasi sebagai ciri utama wirausaha.�Entrepreneurship Development Program (PPK) issued by the Ristekdikti DPRM offers more opportunities for the academic community in higher education to foster entrepreneurial spirit for students in particular. This is very relevant to Universitas Muria Kudus (UMK)�s tagline, "Polite, smart and entrepreneurial". UMK graduates are expected to independently create their own jobs, therefore they will not depend on jobs provided by the government or the industry. PPK aims at creating students to be financially independent as entrepreneurs. In the first year, 2019 PPK program yielded 5 new business tenants among 20 tenants consisting students and alumni of English Education Department, Business Management, Agriculture, and Mechanical Engineering department. To run the program, the methods used were coaching and mentoring. �The businesses which are established by the tenants are Adenium farm, oyster mushroom farm, SEKOPPI coffee shop, sushi and steak, and screen printing. The success of this program is influenced by many factors, both the accompanying factors in this case the service team and student factors. Student factors include the presence of a spirit that is born from a family environment that also has a business, the transformation of values carried out accumulatively in the family and a supportive environment and the talent that allows students to easily receive motivation to carry out activities oriented to the emergence of creativity and or innovation as the main characteristic of entrepreneurship. The program which is arranged must be adjusted to the students� characteristics in the millennium era by maximizing the use of information technology and implemented with an appropriate approach. This conclusion was obtained from observations during the program.
