Abstract

This session seeks to scrutinize the various dimensions of sustainability in tourist destinations. By dissecting the eco-footprint of accommodation, investigating the provenance of culinary resources, and assessing the ecological impacts of entertainment activities, we aim to analyse the multiple dimensions involved (a holistic approach) in destinations sustainability. The discourse will extend to encompass the integration of environmental preservation, community involvement and economic viability. This session aims to provide new insights on the issue, exploring innovative methodologies to maintain the allure of tourist destinations while ensuring their enduring ecological and societal well-being.
