How to help the tourism sector become more sustainable and reduce its impacts on cities?

This recent study, by the Department of Architecture of the University of Naples Federico II and the Institute for Research on Innovation and Services for Development of the National Research Council, analyses the contribution of tourism to the Sustainable Development Goals and the implementation of the circular economy model in the sector.

A new tourism approach is proposed, called “Human Circular Tourism (HCT)”, based on the circular economy model and enhancing sustainability in the tourism sector. An evaluation framework composed of a set of multidimensional indicators for assessing and monitoring the HCT is proposed, with the aim of supporting local public authorities and other tourism stakeholders in the identification of efficient policies and strategies.
