1. Analysis of hunting tourism : a case study of Slovenia (Prlekija region)Boris Prevolšek, Timo Roškar, Maja Borlinič Gačnik, 2024, original scientific article Abstract: The exploration of hunting tourism reveals its multifaceted benefits, encompassing nature preservation and tourism expansion. This study delves into the dynamics and prospective trends within hunting tourism, specifically in Prlekija's administrative unit of Gornja Radgona, Slovenia. It commences with a comprehensive international comparative analysis, followed by insightful semi-structured interviews involving key stakeholders within the destination. Hunting tourism emerges as a pivotal facet of tourism within this locale, exhibiting substantial potential for further growth, particularly in terms of diversification, regional integration, and synergy with other tourism offerings. However, it's imperative to address the adverse impacts of hunting tourism on biodiversity. As a counterbalance, the study underscores the increasing global emphasis on sustainable variants of hunting tourism, such as wildlife photography, fostering a more conscientiousapproach to animal tourism practices.

2. Lovni turizem v novomeškem lovskem upravljavskem območju in priložnosti ter možnosti za nadaljnji razvoj : diplomsko delo visokošolskega strokovnega študijaOskar Grabnar, 2025, undergraduate thesis Abstract: Lovni turizem je dejavnost, ki temelji na trženju obnovljivih virov, kot je divjad, v okviru koristnega in nekoristnega lova. Sooča se z različnimi etičnimi vprašanji, zato je pomembno razumeti pomen lovske dejavnosti nekoč in danes. Slovenija, kljub svoji majhnosti, zaradi naravnih danosti omogoča razvoj lovnega turizma, ki se večinoma izvaja v loviščih s posebnim namenom ter v manjšem obsegu v loviščih pod lovskimi družinami. Novomeško lovsko upravljavsko območje je še v začetni fazi razvoja lovnega turizma, kar se odraža v omejeni ponudbi in majhnem številu lovnih gostov. Lovske družine so prostovoljne organizacije, kar otežuje poglobljen pristop k razvoju turizma, zato je pomembno poiskati ustreznega nosilca dejavnosti. Območje je bogato z veliko in malo divjadjo ter prisotnostjo velikih zveri. Trenutno se sooča z izrazito problematiko šakala, ki negativno vpliva na glavno ponudbo, katera je srnjad. Kot potencial se kaže foto lov, ki postaja vse bolj priljubljen. Lovni turizem na tem območju ima razvojne možnosti zaradi povezovanja z naravnimi in kulturnimi viri ter drugimi vsebinami.

6. Utjecaj nautičkog čarter turizma na razvoj destinacije - primjer Marine Punat : diplomsko delo univerzitetnega študijaJanko Pelikan, 2024, undergraduate thesis Abstract: Navtični turizem je specifična oblika turizma, ki se osredotoča na potovanja, bivanje in dejavnosti, povezane s plovili, kot so jahte in ladje. Ta turizem vključuje dejavnosti, kot so jadranje, potapljanje, ribolov in raziskovanje otokov, z marinami v središču infrastrukture. Marine so pristanišča za sidranje in privez ladij, ki ponujajo različne storitve, kot so namestitev za plovila, oskrba z gorivom, trgovine in restavracije, ter so pomembna središča gospodarske dejavnosti na obalnih območjih.
Hrvaško gospodarstvo je odvisno od turizma, predvsem navtičnega, zaradi sredozemske obale, ki se razteza na 6.300 kilometrov vzdolž Jadranskega morja. Navtični turizem prinaša številne prednosti, vključno z boljšo kakovostjo življenja, urbanizacijo in s krajinsko ureditvijo destinacij. Ladijski promet je dosegel številne neposredne in posredne učinke na gospodarstvo države, medtem ko marine pogosto dosegajo višji donos na kapital, vložen v njihovo izgradnjo, kot druge vrste turizma.
Na otokih hrvaškega Jadrana marine zagotavljajo ključne zaposlitvene možnosti za lokalno prebivalstvo in nudijo trajnostno alternativo izseljevanju. Z ustvarjanjem delovnih mest marine pomagajo ohranjati lokalno kulturo in skupnost, podpirajo lokalno gospodarstvo in bogatijo kulturno tkivo regije. Zaradi te dinamike je regija privlačna za turiste, ki iščejo pristna doživetja.
Gradnja in razvoj marin imata pozitivne sociodemografske učinke, saj uvajata napredne tehnološke in tehnične storitve, ki izboljšujejo lokalni standard. Prisotnost marine preoblikuje kraj, širi obseg razpoložljivih storitev in objektov ter izboljšuje kakovost življenja lokalnega prebivalstva. Pritok navtikov skupnostim prinaša dodaten dohodek s prodajo rib, z gostinstvom in zagotavljanjem turističnih storitev, kar krepi lokalno gospodarstvo.
Marine igrajo ključno vlogo pri podpori čarterske industrije in ustvarjajo simbiotično razmerje, ki koristi obema sektorjema. Ta odnos prispeva k turistični ponudbi regije, spodbuja trajnostno rast in razvoj. Marina Punat, ki se nahaja na otoku Krku, je bila večkrat razglašena za najboljšo marino na Hrvaškem. S svojimi izjemnimi zmogljivostmi, z odlično povezanostjo in varno lokacijo je Marina Punat ključna za navtični turizem v regiji.
Njena finančna stabilnost in inovativne storitve spodbujajo lokalno zaposlovanje in povečujejo privlačnost regije. Kvalitativna raziskava z intervjuji kaže, da Marina Punat pomembno prispeva h gospodarskemu in družbenemu razvoju Punata, podpira lokalna podjetja in regionalno gospodarstvo ter spodbuja okoljsko trajnost in vključevanje skupnosti.
Na splošno je Marina Punat postavila standard odličnosti v navtičnem turizmu, podpira lokalna podjetja in širše regionalno gospodarstvo, medtem ko hkrati spodbuja okoljsko trajnost in vključenost skupnosti.

7. Sustainable development of ethno-villages in Bosnia and Herzegovina : a multi criteria assessmentBoris Prevolšek, Aleksandar Maksimović, Adis Puška, Karmen Pažek, Maja Borlinič Gačnik, Črtomir Rozman, 2020, original scientific article Abstract: This paper explores ethno-villages in Bosnia and Herzegovina as an important element of rural and cultural tourism. The attractiveness of natural and cultural heritage is very important for sustainable rural tourism development. In order to improve the process of decision making to enable the sustainable development of ethno-villages, a multi-criteria assessment model has been developed. The methodology is based on qualitative modeling using a multi-criteria analysis via the DEXi software. The model is based on hierarchical relations consisting of three main criteria that are the basis of sustainable tourism development: economic, social, and environmental criteria. The ultimate goal of the model in this study was to evaluate ethno-villages, namely six ethno-villages in Bosnia and Herzegovina. The results of the study show how ethno-villages contribute to sustainable development.

8. Multicriteria assessment of the quality of waste sorting centers - ǂaǂ case studyKarmen Pažek, Jernej Prišenk, Simon Bukovski, Boris Prevolšek, Črtomir Rozman, 2020, original scientific article Abstract: In this paper, the quality of the municipal waste sorting process in seven waste management centers in Slovenia was assessed using the qualitative multicriteria analysis (MCA) method DEX (Decision EXpert) implemented in DEXi software, which is based on multicriteria decomposition of the problem and utility functions in the form of ʺif-thenʺ decision rules. The study was based on eight types of secondary raw materials. The quality of the secondary raw materials, the regularity of the delivery of secondary raw materials to recycling units based on the sorting efficiency, and the loading weight of the individual baled fractions in the transport of secondary raw materials for recycling were the main parameters used in the model. The final assessment shows good waste management service in centers A and D. Centers B, C, and F were rated ʺaverageʺ. The ʺbadʺ rating was assigned to centers E and G.

9. A system dynamics approach to decision-making tools in farm tourism developmentMaja Borlinič Gačnik, Črtomir Rozman, Andrej Škraba, Boris Prevolšek, 2020, original scientific article Abstract: Background: Besides visiting the main tourist attractions in Slovenia, many tourists want to spend their free time in the countryside as well, but the number of farming establishments in Slovenia diminished distinctly in the last years.
Objectives: This paper aims to develop a system dynamics model, with the goal to analyse dynamics of the diversification of agricultural holdings into farm tourism activities in Slovenia.
Methods/Approach: A system dynamics methodology was chosen to model the diversification in farm tourism. First, we present a basic concept of a system dynamics model with a causal loop diagram. Further, a system dynamics model with different scenarios is presented.
Results: The main feedback loops were identified, and the simulation model was used to analyse different simulation scenarios of the transition of farming establishments into farm tourism facilities.
Conclusions: The model provides the answers to the strategic questions about the dynamics of transfer into tourist farms, using several simulation scenarios. The transition mainly relies on subsidies, promotion of diversification and the growth of rural tourism, which provides a relevant direction for the development of future incentives.

10. Developing a diversification strategy of non-agricultural activities on farms using system dynamics modelling : a case study of SloveniaMaja Borlinič Gačnik, Boris Prevolšek, Karmen Pažek, Črtomir Rozman, Andrej Škraba, 2022, original scientific article Abstract: Purpose: This paper aims to analyse the main variables and causal relationships in the system structure of the diversification of non-agricultural activities on agricultural holdings using system dynamics (SD) modelling. The SD model aims to simulate depictions of the behaviour of the real system while testing the effects of alternative decisions over time.
Design/methodology/approach: An SD methodology was chosen to model diversification in farm tourism.
Findings: A system approach increases the authors’ understanding of the transition of agricultural holdings to farm tourism. The results indicate that the transition to farm tourism depends on the level of tourism development in a certain area. The system is influenced by subsidies allocated by authorities to expand primary agricultural activities. The model describes a situation in which the tourism and agricultural industries have been affected by the COVID-19 pandemic.
Research limitations/implications: The research is limited by the small set of available data due to the limited number of farms in Slovenia. One major problem is the difference in statistical data on the same activity collected from different institutions in Slovenia.
Practical implications: The paper includes implications for understanding the transition process to farm tourism, allowing policymakers to experiment with subsidies and promotion to explore the efficacy and efficiency of proposed policies.
Originality/value: This study provides a structured, systemic view of the diversification of non-agricultural activities on agricultural holdings, where the simulation results are a reliable reflection of the behaviour of the actual system being modelled.
Keywords: system dynamics, modelling, simulation, diversification, farm tourism, farm policy, Slovenia, simulation scenarious
