About this book

This book contains the best papers on tourism sustainability, economics and management presented at the 10th Tourism Outlook Conference, held in Sri Lanka from 19 to 21 October 2017 and the 11th Tourism Outlook Conference held in Eskişehir, Turkey from 3-5 October 2018. The papers provide a distinctly multidisciplinary perspective that brings together experts in the fields of management, economics and tourism to develop and disseminate solutions to emerging issues and challenges related to sustainable tourism and community development.


The book provides a platform for cross-disciplinary dialogues that integrate different research and knowledge from diverse geographical, sectoral, and institutional perspectives. Through this approach, readers gain new perspectives to expand their skills and advance their studies and applications in the sustainable development of tourism resources and destinations, especially in developing world contexts.
