Course content
In this course we look at tourism both as a societal phenomenon and as a global industry. We focus on the definitions, concepts and frameworks that underpin the study of contemporary tourism, keeping in mind the importance of sustainable development. You will learn to identify different types of tourism and understand current challenges, opportunities, trends and ethical issues related to modern tourism. We will also review the latest reports, studies and estimations regarding tourism during and after COVID-19.
