This book presents a selection of multifaceted development issues involving social, economic and environmental aspects, in order to inspire and guide implementation of the United Nations’ SDGs. It focuses on economic development, human well-being and sustainable pathways, with special attention to financial and knowledge resources, as well as measurement concepts. In doing so, the book draws a distinction between sustainability and sustainable pathways by refraining from dealing with broader and more direct environmental sustainability issues like climate change, environmental degradation and sustainable energy. The choice of topics, apart from their relevance for India, was guided by their importance in connection with multiple SDG goals. In addition to revealing the intricacies of systemic relationships and the dilemmas they create in policy choices, the book examines the role of actors and the critical importance of partnerships to help readers comprehend the breadth of diversities and inter-linkages involved. The roles of the central and state governments, the parliament and the state assemblies, the civil society, UN agencies and district-level authorities are separately explored in depth. Sharing valuable insights, the book encourages policymakers, practitioners and scholars to move towards a sustainable and equitable economy, and supports them in their efforts.

In 2015, the United Nations decided to establish the goal of achieving “zero hunger” in the world by 2030 through “outcome targets” such as eliminating hunger and improving access to food, ending all forms of malnutrition, promoting sustainable and resilient agriculture, and maintaining genetic diversity in food production. As a result of this decision, strategies are under way in different countries around the world in the form of political, academic, development, and non-governmental organization projects and programs. Five years later, these strategies have certainly generated results that need to be documented and analyzed so as to answer the following questions: what are the progress and success stories in terms of policies, innovations, technologies, and approaches to reach the zero hunger goal? What are the constraints and mitigation strategies? Are we really in a phase of transition towards the zero hunger goal? What new directions do we need to consider to achieve this goal, particularly in the context of COVID-19 pandemic, which affects all sectors of development around the world? Transitioning to Zero Hunger is part of MDPI's new Open Access book series Transitioning to Sustainability. With this series, MDPI pursues environmentally and socially relevant research which contributes to efforts toward a sustainable world. Transitioning to Sustainability aims to add to the conversation about regional and global sustainable development according to the 17 SDGs. The book series is intended to reach beyond disciplinary, even academic boundaries.

In a world grappling with many challenges, the global tourism and hospitality industries find themselves at a crossroads. Existing strategies fall short of stakeholder expectations, while the immense potential of the industry to address Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) remains underutilized. Negligible attention from academia towards creating value for the Bottom of the Pyramid (BoP) compounds the issue, hindering the development of strategies essential for SDG achievement. This book, Interlinking SDGs and the Bottom-of-the-Pyramid Through Tourism, presents a compelling exploration of how the tourism industry, with its vast potential, can become a key driver for socio-economic and environmental gains, specifically targeting the BoP market and SDGs. The book emphasizes the scarcity of research on inclusive tourism products for BoP stakeholders and proposes innovative strategies to bridge this gap. It advocates for personalized products, inclusive supply chains, and collaborative processes, underlining the potential of these approaches to not only serve BoP needs but also act as a catalyst for achieving SDGs. Through a series of recommended topics, the book invites researchers, academicians, tourism analysts, and industry practitioners to collaborate on developing practical business models that integrate SDGs and BoP needs. Interlinking SDGs and the Bottom-of-the-Pyramid Through Tourism stands as a call to action for academia and industry stakeholders to unite in creating a sustainable and equitable future through tourism.
