Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In recent years, there has been a paradigm shift from corporate social responsibility (CSR) to sustainability, an emerging stage in the tourism sector. In the context of sustainable tourism, Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) are emerging as driving factors in sustainability, representing an exciting research opportunity for the study of sustainability in this field. The application of new technologies for practical purposes (digital transition, territorial development), as well as in research, allows us to approach this topic through analyses considering different areas (corporate information, reports, websites, social networks, reviews) and perspectives (tourism companies, tourists, residents, public organizations). A holistic understanding could facilitate the implementation of measures that improve corporate performance, reputation management, brand perception, effective information disclosure to attract visitors, and living conditions, and could also help in determining sustainable business opportunities. This Special Issue will delve into sustainable tourism from a multidisciplinary and multiagency approach, covering issues including, but not limited to:
- Evolution of the conception of sustainability in the field of tourism;
- Perception of sustainable tourism from a multiagent perspective;
- Application of data mining methodologies for sustainability research;
- Sustainable strategies for tourism companies;
- Smart tourism;
- Smart tourism in rural communities;
- Impact of business sustainability strategies on tourism;
- Building sustainable value in tourism;
- Ecological transition;
- Brand management in touristic destinations;
- Service management in hospitality industry.
