This conference session features research presentations on four topics. Lucas presents a Gaussian multicriteria decision-making framework for evaluating the sustainable performance of Brazilian publicly listed firms using operational efficiency, profitability, risk-adjusted returns, and ESG scores. William Garrett examines whether counties that legalize alcohol experience changes in fatal traffic crashes, including spillover effects on neighboring dry counties, finding an overall null effect but significant short-term reductions in fatal crashes and increased drunk-driver inflows to urban counties. Dr. Blanca discusses barriers to developing and conserving tourist attractions in San Marcos, emphasizing weak governance, insufficient coordination, limited promotion, poor access, and the need for sustainable destination planning. The final presentation investigates how restorative experiences in Vietnam's Ba Vi National Park influence later subjective well-being through place attachment, finding that perceived crowding weakens this relationship. The session concludes with discussion, publication instructions, and closing remarks.
