Webinar Description

Tourism Quality of Life Indicators: Sustainability, Competitiveness, and Performance

Quality of Life (QoL) indicators are vital for assessing a tourism destination's sustainability, competitiveness, and overall performance, facilitating effective resource management. Although sustainability, competitiveness, and performance are distinct concepts, they share overlapping characteristics in their practical implementation. Regardless of the scope and dimensions of indicators, they help policymakers and stakeholders balance tourism growth with community welfare, ensuring that tourism development aligns with residents' quality of life. Sustainable tourism minimizes negative environmental and cultural impacts, while competitive destinations create value through innovation and efficient services. The main goal of this panel is to examine the interplays of these three related constructs and underscore the importance of developing destination-specific indicators and measurements to monitor use levels, growth, and development while ensuring the well-being of stakeholders (residents, visitors, and employees) at the destination. A comprehensive approach to tourism indicators enhances the destination’s appeal, fosters local engagement, and ensures long-term prosperity for visitors and residents.
