I was always fascinated with the tourism industry, that's why I decided to study for many years and to gain 3 academic certificates (Diploma, Bsc and Msc in tourism management). After my academic excellence, I worked in the tourism field and I co-created a travel agency. Now I am teaching tourism management as a Lecturer at a college in Barcelona.

What you’ll learn: 

  • What is sustainable tourism
  • The challenges of sustainable tourism
  • The tools in the development of sustainable tourism
  • Why sustainable development is a necessity

Requirements: 

  • General interest in the tourism industry or sustainability

In this course, we will analyse what sustainable tourism is. Obviously, we will start by explaining what tourism and a tourist is. Then we will continue with what sustainability is. When those definitions are clear, we will dive into sustainable tourism. 

We will see examples of sustainable development and we will analyse the challenges and tools we have to measure or count our environmental impact. Nowadays, we are listening all the time about sustainability and green development, but it is not very clear what it is. 

Tourism is a gigantic industry with almost 1 in every 10 jobs, so the need for sustainable development in such an important and influential industry is obvious. Sustainability is even bigger than tourism itself and it is going to be explained in this course why sustainability should be a general way of living and not just a segment of the tourism industry.
