SWG 7 – ES in (eco) Tourism

1. Introduction & Objectives

The objective of this SWG is an advanced sustainable tourism and nature conservation through an interdisciplinary network of academic and professional experts in the sciences, social sciences, and humanities. With this broad platform the tourism working group will seek to provide eco-rational tourism solutions by engaging in basic, applied and citizen science research in the various fields. Ecosystem – tourism interactions will be taken into account on all relevant levels, ranging from the local to the global.

The network partners will seek to:

  • Structure, classify, and better understand the interlinkages between tourism and ecosystem services;
  • Define and understand the nature of the ecosystem services provided to tourism;
  • Develop a holistic understanding of tourist experiences of nature by integrating social-scientific knowledge;
  • Explore and share best practices and models of integration of sustainable tourism and nature conservation at local, regional, and global scales.
