Eighth International Conference on Tourism & Leisure Studies
- Post-Pandemic Tourism Transformations
- 14-16 June 2023
- University of Granada, Granada, Spain + Online
The triangulation of Climate Crisis, Post-Pandemic Futures and Global Justice Advocacy through the BLM movement has made paradigm shifts in the tourism industry imperative. Social, cultural, economic and environmental contexts are increasingly providing for the rehabilitation of tourism in responsible and ethical ways. Non-urban tourism, distributed benefits to local communities, experiential immersions, innovative offerings and evidence-based statistical profiles are some of the research concerns. We meet in Granada to discuss these and other research and developmental concerns.
The Eighth International Conference on Tourism & Leisure Studies featured plenary sessions by some of the world's leading thinkers and innovators in the field.
