Publicação Acesso Aberto Tourism and water resources: interrelationships and consequences: the case of Kazakhstan2020 - Ramazanova, MakhabbatTourism and water are characterised by a significant and complex number of different, and sometimes bidirectional, interrelationships (Gössling et al., 2012; Tortella & Tirado, 2011). This research area is relatively new and there is a significant deficit in the body of literature concerning this area (Gössling et al., 2015; UNWTO, 2013). [...]Publicação Acesso Aberto Water and the city: Valorising Guimarães water heritage for tourism2020 - Freitas, Isabel Vaz de; Ramazanova, MakhabbatWater is the most important natural source of human existence and the main element of the socio-economic development of any industry. Water is an essential in meaningful experience of the visitors, who have an internal relation with this touristic resource as an attraction. As a cultural resource is associated with symbolic and artistic meanings. In urban areas where water is often ignored and its heritage elements are underestimated, the valorisation of its heritage elements and natural state is essential to create a safeguard and protection attitude towards this vital asset of life. To value is to recognise importance, to understand significance, to act towards conservation in both natural and cultural angles, particularly in cities where the conservation of water resources is critical and ignored in an urban development process. In this perspective, the present study attempts to analyse the water heritage state in the historical city Guimarães with the aim to valorise the water heritage resources linked to traditions and local historical narratives. Giving significance to those historical assets, aims to promote sustainable use and sustainable visit development. In this context, it is important to understand the residents’ view about the water presence in Guimarães, to understand the local opinion about the valorisation of water heritage for tourism and to understand what could the city do in conservation and the implementation of sustainable attitude related with this vital resource.Publicação Acesso Aberto Migrant work in tourism and hospitality: A systematic literature review [abstract]2025-07-08 - Veríssimo, Medéia; Durão, Marília; Ramazanova, MakhabbatThis study aims to systematically review existing literature on migrant labour within the tourism and hospitality sectors, identifying key research themes and gaps to inform future investigations. [...]Publicação Acesso Aberto Experiential marketing and purchase intention of ecotourism experiences: Z-Generation case2024-03-11 - Nogueira, Sónia; Durão, Marília; Pacheco, Luís Miguel; Ramazanova, Makhabbat; Carvalho, João M. S.Consumers are more willing to invest in experiences with relaxation and stress reduction. Tourism, a pivotal driver of the economy, and its associated activities hold significant potential for experiential marketing. It is particularly evident in the growing interest of tourists in natural settings and experiences related to nature, fostering an environment conducive to the expansion of ecotourism. Consequently, an exploratory study was conducted with the following research question: How does experiential marketing relate to consumer satisfaction, loyalty, word-of-mouth, and intention to purchase ecotourism experiences, explicitly focusing on Generation Z? - The results indicate positive correlations between experiential marketing and satisfaction constructs, consequently establishing a link between satisfaction, loyalty, word-of-mouth promotion, and purchase intention. Thus, the findings provide valuable insights into the behaviors of ecotourism consumers and how experiential marketing can facilitate the development of more effective marketing strategies to enhance tourist satisfaction.Publicação Acesso Aberto Water quality of the lakes: Consequences of tourism development2019 - Tortella, Bartolomé Deyá; Kakabayev, Anuarbek; Bulai, Mihai; Ramazanova, MakhabbatPublicação Acesso Restrito Analysis of the consumer behaviour regarding the use of online food delivery apps during Covid-19 sanitary restrictions in Portugal2022-05-19 - Borges, Isabel; Silva, Fátima Matos; Albuquerque, Helena; Ramazanova, Makhabbat; Marques, JorgeThe purpose of this paper is to analyse the consumer behaviour regarding the use of online food delivery apps during Covid-19 sanitary restrictions in Portugal.

Departing from a SWOT analysis, the main objective of this paper is to analyze the perceptions of stakeholders (researchers, teachers, and senior research managers) regarding the main strengths and weaknesses of HEIs, as well as assess the potential opportunities and threats present in the external environment. It analyzed a total of 462 responses from seven HEIs and two ministries participating in the INNOVA project in Bolivia and Paraguay. The results from the statistical analysis indicate that the respondents tend to identify the traditional obstacles and facilitators to research development, namely, the scarcity and instability of public policies, which permeate the institutions, diminishing the consistency of internal research policies and creating difficulties in access to funding and career development opportunities. Building on the substantial progress made in recent years, the unvirtuous cycle may be halted with political stability and committed action between all the concerned parties.Publicação Acesso Aberto Evaluating the drivers of outbound tourism: Evidence from Central Asia2025-01-31 - Ibragimov, Khusen; Marques, Jorge; Flores, Rogelio Jr.; Ramazanova, MakhabbatPurpose – This study analyses the outbound tourism demand of Central Asia to 76 destinations for the twenty-one-year period (1995-2015). The main objective is to investigate the extent to which economic and non-economic determinants impact the volume of outbound tourism flows in Central Asia. Methodology/Design/Approach – The study formalizes the static panel data, the set of 76 destinations, and five Central Asia countries. The application of the gravity model has been employed using the least squares dummy variables (LSDV) estimation technique. Findings – The findings reveal that the outbound tourism demand of Central Asia is found to be highly income elastic and price inelastic. Costs of transportation and visa restrictions between bilateral countries cause a substantial decline in the number of overseas travel. Among other factors, a peaceful political environment in a destination is defined as a key element to attract tourists from Central Asia. Originality of the research – This research represents the first attempt to analyse outbound tourism demand in Central Asia, taking into account factors in both the origin and destination countries, such as visa restrictions, political stability, tourist income, the price of goods and services, and common language.Publicação Acesso Aberto Traditional gastronomy and its preservation2024-03-03 - Ramazanova, MakhabbatCultural heritage in its various aspects is a peculiar expression of the territory and its history, the preservation of which is necessary for the understanding, permanence, and formation of the national identity, as well as for the democratisation of culture. On the other hand, cultural heritage values the territory and represents an important economic resource, being a factor of competitiveness that needs to be strengthened as an element of differentiation and attractiveness. Among the intangible cultural heritage, gastronomy is of great importance to preserve the cultural identity and traditions of the country, as well as a tool to promote tourism.
