Synopsis

Across the globe, communities face increasing challenges in building resilience and sustainability in the face of climate change, economic disparities, and other complex issues. The tourism sector, often seen as a driver of economic growth, has also been a source of environmental degradation, cultural erosion, and social inequities in many destinations. There is a growing need for a new approach to sustainable tourism development that enhances community well-being and environmental stewardship. Building Community Resiliency and Sustainability With Tourism Development provides a comprehensive framework for transforming the tourism sector into a force for positive change. The book explores the relationship between tourism, community development, and environmental conservation. It offers practical solutions to promote resilience and sustainability in tourism-dependent communities. Through case studies, best practices, and innovative strategies, readers can learn how to leverage tourism to promote economic, social, and environmental benefits.
