Показать описание
Presented by Dr. Hannah Messerli
IITS-IGIS Colloquium | October 2, 2015
As a multi-disciplinary activity that crosses economic, environmental, and socio-cultural efforts, tourism research can take on a wide variety of issues. Some of these focus exclusively on tourism, while others are integrated into wider concerns. What are the needs and opportunities for tourism research that are distinct, in contrast to those that augment integrated applied research across the international development arena? This review of recent World Bank tourism initiatives highlights diverse approaches and points of intervention that offer opportunities for researchers as the global development agenda tackles an expanding range of issues that include climate change, pandemics, and crisis response.
