CIFAL Malaga- Security in tourists cities
People
Background
Tourism is today a basic pillar for the progress of the welfare society and for depressed areas in our globalized world. The strengths of the tourism sector is a topic analyzed profusely by institutions, professionals and academics. However, in recent years it has begun to consider whether we really know what its weaknesses are, especially in environments such as the Mediterranean, where some cities show a concern for the negative impacts that may arise from tourism.
Event Objectives
The aim of the meeting is to review some of the problems of tourist cities, with the intention of generating debate around security, turistification and the territory brand.
Learning Objectives
In the different days we will address issues of great interest, both for students and professionals.
The trends in tourism, its treatment in marketing, and the implications it has on development in a global world will be analyzed. The tourism of the Mediterranean will be outlined from the perspective of the Director of the Tourist Observatory of Palermo.
Turistification will be addressed in urban centers and the tax implications that may arise from tourism activity according to types of accommodation.
