Description
Sustainability is a highly topical issue and is of critical importance in numerous sectors, fields and economies internationally including the Tourism industry. There have been numerous texts written on sustainable tourism and the measures to manage this, with all failing to acknowledge Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) as a means of doing so, despite being an emerging area of research.
The book considers the use of technology to reduce the negative impacts of tourism from both the demand and supply side perspectives. It critically reviews a range of cutting edge technologies used by tourists and businesses to assess their usefulness in managing sustainable tourism development from the macro to the micro level. It further integrates examples and practical applications to show how ICT can be an invaluable mechanism in the management of sustainable tourism development.
