Description

The tourism industry faces a pressing challenge - balancing economic growth with environmental preservation and social responsibility. Traditional tourism models often lead to environmental degradation, cultural homogenization, and economic disparities. Local communities are marginalized, and natural resources are depleted, threatening the industry's long-term sustainability. Moreover, the COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the industry's vulnerability to external shocks, emphasizing the need for resilient and sustainable practices.

Dimensions of Regenerative Practices in Tourism and Hospitality offers a comprehensive solution to these challenges. The book provides practical guidelines for businesses and practitioners to adopt regenerative practices effectively by showcasing innovative and sustainable initiatives. It explores the role of local communities in shaping and benefiting from sustainable tourism, emphasizing the importance of collaboration among stakeholders. Additionally, the book evaluates the environmental impact of different approaches within the industry and promotes ethical behavior, encouraging fair treatment of employees, communities, and cultural heritage.
