Planning and managing rural recreational traffic flows: why the future can’t be more like the past
The increasing popularity of rural tourism can cause traffic related problems at certain areas. Traffic congestion and parking problems are likely to occur as the infrastructure at these countryside destinations is seldom capable of dealing with the growing number of cars. Values which make the sites attractive to visitors can become under pressure and car traffic can also have negative effects on natural values. To prevent for such impacts, recreational traffic management is required. Recreational traffic management focuses on a smart organisation of recreational traffic flows. It has developed since the 1970s and to-day its character is influencing. Influencing takes place by offering tempting alternative opportunities and packages with varied facilities, based on specific desires of individual recreants. This requires detailed data on recreational use as well as an actor analysis, both on a regional and local scale

Het recreatief gebruik van Veluwetransferia & P-Veluwe
In de afgelopen jaren heeft de provincie Gelderland samen met diverse partners gewerkt aan het realiseren van Veluwetransferia en P-Veluwe locaties. Het doel van deze voorzieningen is enerzijds de recreatieve beleving van de Veluwe te vergroten en anderzijds negatieve effecten op de omgeving zoveel mogelijk te beperken. In opdracht van de provincie heeft Wageningen Universiteit onderzoek gedaan naar de aard en omvang van het recreatief gebruik van de Veluwetransferia en P-Veluwe. Daarvoor zijn op diverse locaties verkeerstellingen gehouden en op 12 verschillende locaties in totaal 3410 enquêtes afgenomen onder de bezoekers. In dit rapport worden de resultaten van dit onderzoek gepresenteerd

International Health Electives:defining learning outcomes for a unique experience
Background: An International Health Elective (IHE) can be a unique learning experience for students. However, it has proven difficult to clearly define learning outcomes that capture the complexity of an IHE and are aligned with future professional performance. This study aimed to further define learning outcomes for IHEs in low- to middle-income countries (LMIC) from a student perspective. Methods: We conducted a deductive analysis of pre-departure and post-elective reflective reports of fifth-year medical students who participated in an IHE as part of their program. This provided possible learning objectives that were further explored in semi-structured individual interviews with medical students who had recently returned from an IHE. Results: We analyzed 33 reports of students participating in an IHE from 2017–2019 and held 19 interviews. Thematic analysis revealed 9 themes: developing intercultural competence, developing appreciation for differences in health care delivery systems, understanding international health, understanding the global burden of disease, developing a career perspective, developing clinical skills in resource low settings, becoming cost conscious, developing social responsibility and self-actualization. Conclusions: We identified 9 learning outcomes that are directly and indirectly related to clinical practice. They add to the on-going discourse on the benefits of IHEs. These outcomes can be further developed by investigating the perspectives of home and host supervisors and educationalists, while taking the local context into account. Follow-up studies can evaluate to what extend these outcomes are achieve during an IHE.</p
