Abstract(s)
Nas últimas décadas, o Turismo consolidou-se como um dos principais sectores económicos à
escala mundial, nacional, regional e local, sendo amplamente reconhecido o seu efeito
multiplicador, alavancando riqueza no seu próprio sector e no desenvolvimento de outros
sectores económicos.
No entanto, o desenvolvimento da actividade turística nem sempre acarreta impactes positivos, podendo incompatibilizar-se com os desígnios patentes no conceito de desenvolvimento sustentável.
Neste contexto, o paradigma da sustentabilidade aplicada à actividade turística representa actualmente um dos maiores reptos que o sector enfrenta.
A presente investigação incide sobre a problemática da sustentabilidade nos destinos turísticos.
Desta forma, corporiza o cruzamento dos modelos conceptuais existentes, evidenciando
sinergias e boas práticas e, delimita os princípios inerentes a uma gestão integrada dos destinos turísticos com o enunciado dos pressupostos e das vantagens decorrentes.
Aplica o modelo conceptual ao caso concreto do destino Alqueva de forma a verificar quais as condições que devem estar reunidas para que esta região se possa afirmar turisticamente num contexto nacional e internacional de concorrência acrescida.
In recent decades, tourism has established itself as one of the leading economic sectors not only at the global scale, but also at national, regional, and local levels, and its multiplying effect is widely recognised, leveraging wealth in its own area of activity and across other economic sectors. However, tourism development does not always entail positive impacts, and it might actually be inconsistent with the principles endorsed by the concept of sustainability. In this context, the paradigm of sustainable development applied to the tourism activity constitutes one of the biggest challenges for the sector. The present research focuses on the issue of sustainability addressed to tourism destinations. Thus, it embodies the intersection between the existing conceptual models, highlighting synergies and best practice, and determines the inherent principles in tourism destinations’ integrated management, by foregrounding assumptions and their resulting benefits. It applies the conceptual model to the Alqueva’s tourism destination so as to understand the essential conditions for this region to become a renowned tourism destination within the scope of the escalating national and international tourism competition.
