La educación en base a la gobernanza: otra dimensión del desarrollo y del desarrollo turístico sostenible
El concepto de sostenibilidad y su tridimensionalidad ya no son suficientes para describir la complejidad de la sociedad. Académicos y organismos internacionales proponen a la educación como otra dimensión. Se reflexiona a respecto y se propone desde la gobernanza, la planificación administrativa desde la planificación de la conducta. Se presenta el desarrollo sostenible y la necesidad de equilibrio y redistribución de la economía a través de actividades como el turismo. Se llega a la conclusión de que la educación es la base del cambio y el turismo un soporte del desarrollo sostenible.
La sostenibilidad turística a través de un índice sintético amparado en los 17 ODS. Los casos de Canet d'En Berenguer, Cullera y Oliva
La sostenibilidad alcanzó un significativo interés en el sector turístico a partir de la Cumbre de la Tierra (Río, 1992). Desde entonces se ha hecho necesario medir sus variables, por lo que distintas instituciones vienen desarrollando sistemas de indicadores turísticos, aunque, en su mayoría, no tienen en cuenta las características o la idiosincrasia local. El generalizar los indicadores para todos los territorios desatiende y equipara problemas de carácter ambiental, social, político y económico, obviando la singularidad del destino. Por otro lado, varios estudios recientes certifican empíricamente que factores como las masificaciones y el calentamiento global, consecuencia de la falta de…

Measuring the sustainability of tourist destinations based on the SDGs: the case of Algarve in Portugal: Tourism Agenda 2030
Purpose A synthetic indicator (SI) is developed to measure the sustainability of tourist destinations according to four proposed dimensions of sustainable development: social, economic, environmental and political. Its purpose is to determine the most appropriate indicators for each type of tourist destination, i.e. which variables should be considered in each territory according to its typology (environmental, social, economic and tourism). To test the usefulness and employability of the SI, it has been applied in the Algarve (Portugal). Three destinations were analysed in this region: Albufeira, Faro and Lagos, all three good examples of the well-known sun and beach tourism model. Design…
Residents' and visitors' opinions as a basis for sustainable destination development Post-COVID-19
Since RIO-92, sustainability has become a major issue within the tourism environment, urging the need to measure its economic, social and environmental variables. Agenda 21, a product of this Summit, recommends the implementation of governance processes, such as satisfaction surveys, as one of the tools for measuring sustainability. In the aftermath of the COVID-19 health crisis, sustainability will be the essential element of stability and control in the face of future crises on a global scale. This research proposes the opinion of residents and visitors as one of the bases for the design of sustainable tourism. Therefore, it analyses the level of sustainability felt by both groups, throug…
O turismo e a sua implicação ambiental: análise a partir da observação do uso turístico - o caso de Faro, Portugal.
The tourist development in the Algarve represented an important element of change offering significant economic advantages and opportunities for tourism and other sectors. However, the environmental impacts and their social implication are not always ideally perceived. The present study refers to an analysis of Ria Formosa's uses of tourism in Faro, with an associated evaluation of possible environmental impact registers. The results reinforce the need to evaluate the possible negative impacts in this region. Among the most relevant points observed is the continued use of one‑use plastic both by the resident and the tourist population. Besides the positive perception of tourism by the inter…
