Just Sustainability Transition in Tourism: Placing Justice in the Core
Tourism confronts interconnected global crises, posing significant justice challenges to many communities. Disparities between the North and South, power asymmetries, social and environmental vulnerabilities, biodiversity loss, climate change, and historical injustices are some of the pressing issues. Efforts are underway to integrate justice into sustainability discourses, urging a re-evaluation of economic activities in tourism through the lenses of justice and sustainability. Recognising and including diverse communities, experts, genders, and traditional voices is essential for generating new insight on sustainable transformative options. Examining the role of justice in sustainability transitions is crucial for developing theoretical and empirical foundations to guide tourism communities and policy responses. The panel will discuss how this holistic approach can address the complex web of challenges, fostering a more just and sustainable future for tourism.
