El estudio comenta las funciones de esta organización, así como sus líneas de actuación centradas en dos ejes principales: promoción del destino (exterior e interior) y desarrollo de recursos locales. ; This research aims to analyze tourism regional organizations, focusing on «Abruzzo Promozione Turismo», the DMO of Abruzzo region (Italy), as the Italian legislation has just changed adding more competences to these organizations.

The paper examines the relationship between sustainable tourism governance and Cittaslow certification. As an organised network of small cities, Cittaslow is attempting to focus plans around the primary assets of locality-based identity, by choosing to preserve the unique characteristics of each urban area. Through a quantitative analysis, based on International Cittaslow certified cities, the paper aims to examine the effects of Cittaslow certification on local government for the implementation of more sustainable tourism governance. Findings reveal that interest in being certified acts as a stimulus to the definition and the implementation of more sustainable development, allowing a destination to become part of an international network of cities. The results highlight the need to fully exploit the various opportunities in order to be certified, moving primarily from the implementation of policy initiatives coherent not only with the many requirements laid down by Cittaslow, but which have a positive impact on areas considered more strategic for small town development, while avoiding the waste of effort and scarce resources on other less focused projects. ; Este artículo examina la relación entre una gestión de turismo sostenible y la citación Cittaslow. Como una red organizada de pequeñas ciudades, Cittaslow es un intento por enfocar planes alrededor de los activos primarios basados en la identidad de una localidad, eligiendo preservar las características únicas de cada área urbana. A través de un análisis cuantitativo, basado en las ciudades con certificación internacional Cittaslow, este documento pretende examinar los efectos de la certificación Cittaslow en gobiernos locales para la implementación de una gobernanza de turismo más sostenible. Los hallazgos revelan que el interés en ser certificado actúa como un estímulo para la definición e implementación de un desarrollo más sostenible, permitiendo al destino convertirse en parte de una red internacional de ciudades. Los resultados resaltan la necesidad de explotar las diversas oportunidades para obtener el certificado, principalmente desde la implementación de iniciativas de políticas coherentes no solo con los muchos requisitos establecidos por Cittaslow, sino que también aquellos que tienen un impacto positivo en áreas consideradas más estratégicas para el desarrollo de pequeñas ciudades, mientras que se evita gastar el esfuerzo y los escasos recursos en otros proyectos menos enfocados.

O presente artigo tem por objetivo estudar o papel do psicopedagogo no processo de inclusão de crianças com Transtorno do Espectro Autista (TEA) na Educação Infantil. Trata-se de uma pesquisa qualitativa, realizada por meio de levantamento bibliográfico a respeito dos temas. A inclusão das crianças com TEA é garantida por leis, diretrizes e declarações, porém, ainda é distante do cotidiano das salas de aula. Neste sentido, é de grande importância compreender o papel do psicopedagogo e sua atuação e intervenções no processo de inclusão.
