Evaluating the ecological security of ecotourism (EES) in protected areas is critical because these play a vital role protecting biodiversity and natural resources. This study evaluated EES status Central Alborz Protected Area (Northern Iran), based on Driver, Pressure, State, Impact, Response (DPSIR) model. We developed comprehensive list 59 indicators for DPSIR model employed an Analytical Network Process (ANP) to determine indicator weights harnessing opinion experts which are most influential. approach facilitated identification regions with highest vulnerability, notably northern western sectors our area along boundary between Tehran Mazandaran provinces. Here, mechanisms that drive change include activities, livestock overgrazing, uncontrolled physical economic extensive road highway development, land use cover changes. Indicators effective determining status, activities. conclude by discussing respond increasing threat Areas such as involvement government strategic integrated management.

Integration of Sustainability in Risk Management and Operational Excellence through the VIKOR Method Considering Comparisons between Multi-Criteria Decision-Making Methods

Sustainability, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 16(11), P. 4585 - 4585

Published: May 28, 2024

In the current context, organizations face an important challenge in managing risks related to environmental, social and governance (ESG) issues. This research presents a general method for prioritizing organizational with focus on sustainability based characterization of five typologies their respective sub-risks, analysis global reports. Subsequently, paired surveys are administered group experts from various sectors, who assign importance sub-risks. Their responses serve as basis prioritization these risks, using VIšekriterijumsko KOmpromisno Rangiranje (VIKOR) method, which highlights following most relevant sub-risks each type risk: (1) Lack ethics conduct business (geopolitical risk); (2) Deficit economic growth (economic (3) Chemical safety (social (4) Massive data fraud or theft incidents (technological (5) Water depletion (environmental risk). Additionally, sensitivity is performed determine robustness results VIKOR then compare correlation coefficients respect obtained previous studies AHP ANP methods. Finally, we propose implementation model manage addressed proactively through integral vision, allowing continuous improvement alignment corporate strategy by means operational excellence management system (OEMS).

Integrating Sustainability into Risk Management through Analytical Network Process

Sustainability, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 16(6), P. 2384 - 2384

Published: March 13, 2024

Sustainable risk management is becoming widely accepted, making the incorporation of environmental, social, and governance (ESG) issues into strategic planning areas crucial to a responsible business philosophy. This article aims rank organizational sub-risks with focus on sustainability, offering methodology based analytical network process (ANP) method improve decision-making reduce misrepresentation in qualitative evaluation criteria. An integrated approach presented, starting characterization five typologies global reports then prioritizing risks using ANP method. The sustainability highest level prioritization for each typology are (1) massive data fraud or theft incident (technological risk), (2) deficit economic growth (economic (3) water depletion (environmental (4) lack ethics conduct (geopolitical (5) chemical safety (social risk). Finally, cosine similarity analysis developed compare results obtained performed hierarchy (AHP) differences between methods generate similar prioritization; high indicates consistency relationships criteria showing convergence. It essential mention that should be interpreted cautiously, considering specific context which this developed, we recommend periodic verification sub-risks.

A new hybrid MCDM approach for mitigating risks of hazardous material road transportation

Mathematical Biosciences & Engineering, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 21(3), P. 4210 - 4240

Published: Jan. 1, 2024

<abstract> <p>Given the ongoing development of global economy, demand for hazardous materials, which serve as essential components numerous industrial products, is steadily increasing. Consequently, it becomes imperative to devise a methodology mitigating risks associated with road transportation materials. The objective this study establish an integrated quality function deployment and multicriteria decision-making (QFD-MCDM) framework identify pivotal factors that propel Industry 5.0 (I5.0), thus fortifying supply chain resilience (SCR) ameliorating material (HMTR). These measures encompass various strategic areas, including "establish safe inclusive work environment", "customized products services", "enhance production flexibility strengthen control redundancy", "real-time data collection analysis". By adopting these measures, enterprises can lead sustainable stable business operations. findings demonstrate synergistic potential integrating I5.0 SCR in effectively HMTR. Additionally, offer valuable insights practical implications across diverse industries.</p> </abstract>
