Abstract(s)
A presente dissertação investiga o campo do Turismo Sustentável/Ecológico, caracterizando diferentes conceitos; enquadra a evolução da problemática ambiental; estuda a relação entre o Turismo e o Ambiente, os seus impactos (económicos, sócio-culturais e ambientais) e respectiva medição e controlo; e destaca a importância de um bom planeamento e gestão turísticos.
Numa segunda fase, relativa à área dos Projectos Turísticos Sustentáveis, e de modo a consolidar esta dissertação toma-se o caso de estudo do Projecto da Mata de Sesimbra – o
primeiro projecto integrado de construção, ecoturismo sustentável e conservação da natureza a nível nacional, levado a cabo pela imobiliária Pelicano em parceria com a ONG World Wildlife Fund e a BioRegional – à semelhança do bem sucedido Projecto BedZed no Reino Unido (uma eco-cidade que permite aos seus residentes terem um estilo de vida amigo do ambiente, com o nível de conforto e qualidade de vida de hoje em dia). Então, são
apresentadas as entidades envolvidas e projectos semelhantes, antes da análise do plano de pormenor e plano de gestão ambiental do projecto em estudo.
Esta investigação pretende demonstrar o mérito que projectos como este têm no
desenvolvimento local, os seus impactos positivos e negativos, e indica os instrumentos que os norteiam e os obstáculos que se lhes colocam, como linhas de orientação para projectos semelhantes.
Para o efeito, tendo por base a documentação relativa ao mesmo, o projecto é
analisado na vertente territorial (desenvolvimento do projecto e planos de ordenamento do território seguidos), sócio-cultural (relação entre a população local e o empreendimento turístico) e económica (importância do turismo, em especial de projectos inovadores deste género, na actividade local), tendo em conta a problemática ambiental transversal às três
vertentes, ao tentar responder às perguntas de partida: Como criar valor local com o Projecto da Mata de Sesimbra? Qual a gestão do projecto, barreiras e apoios inerentes ao desenvolvimento turístico sustentável em
Sesimbra?
This dissertation investigates the field of Sustainable/Ecological Tourism, characterizes different concepts, within the evolution of the environmental problematic; studies the relation between Tourism and the Environment, its impacts (economic, socialcultural and environmental), evaluation and control; and highligths the importance of an efficient tourism planning and management. In the second part, concerning Sustainable Touristic Projects, to consolidate this work the case-study “Mata de Sesimbra” Project, in Portugal, is presented and analysed – the first national project that combines building constrution, sustainable ecotourism and nature conservation, developed by the real estate company Pelicano in partnership with the ONG World Wildlife Fund and BioRegional – following the example of the well succeeded BedZed Project in the United Kingdom (an eco-village where its residents can have a ecofriendly style of life, with the comfort and quality of life of nowadays). Therefore, the entities involved and similar projects are presented, before the analysis of the project’s detail plan and environmental management plan. This investigation aim consists in demonstrating the merit of such projects in the local development, its positive and negative impacts, indicating the instruments that guide them and the obstacles in its implementation, as a guide line for similar iniciatives. Based on the documentation related to it, the project is analysed by three approaches: territorial (project development and land-use plans followed), social-cultural (the relationship between local community and the touristic endeavour) and economic (tourism importance to the local economy, specially of this kind of innovative projects), taking into account the environmental issue cross-cutting these approaches, trying to answer the starting point questions: How to create local value with the “Mata de Sesimbra” Project? Which are the project management, barriers and supports inherent to sustainable touristic development in Sesimbra?
