Document Summary
Chapter 15: tourism policy: structure, content and process. Two other global forces that all tourism destinations must now face: the growing competition from both established and emerging destinations, the pressure to maintain the ecological integrity of regions affected by tourism. It sets out activities and behaviours that are acceptable for visitors. It provided a common direction and guidance for all tourism stakeholders within a destination. It facilitates consensus around specific strategies and objectives for a given destination. It provides a framework for public/private discussions on the role and contributions of the tourism sector to the economy and to society in general. It allows tourism to interface more effectively with other sectors of the economy. A tourism destination is a particular geographic region within which the visitor enjoys various types of travel experiences. General policies (regulations, rules, directives, objectives, strategies) are controlled by governments, as well as other industry sectors and organizations.
