In the wake of unprecedented global disruption, the tourism industry has been compelled to reassess, reimagine, and rebuild. Resilient Tourism Management offers a comprehensive academic exploration into how the tourism sector is navigating the complex realities of a post-pandemic world—balancing health imperatives with visitor satisfaction, adapting infrastructure, retooling marketing strategies, and embracing technology-driven transformation.
This volume brings together multidisciplinary insights on evolving traveller behaviour, sustainable and resilient tourism models, and the pivotal role of policy, innovation, and community engagement in recovery. Each chapter delves into critical themes—from reengineering tour operations and implementing contactless solutions, to fostering global reconnections and unpacking ethical dilemmas in crisis management—providing a nuanced understanding of both challenges and opportunities facing tourism professionals and researchers today.
Featuring forward-looking analysis and global case studies, Resilient Tourism Management is essential reading for academics, policymakers, industry leaders, and students seeking to contribute to a more adaptive, inclusive, and future-ready tourism landscape.
