Descrição

This study is an initial challenge to investigate the contributions that sustainable tourism observatories can have in the context of the public governance of tourism destinations. Some studies analyze tourism observatory models (e.g., Bertocchi, Camatti & Borg, 2020; Brandão & Costa, 2010), public governance (OECD, 2020), governance for sustainable tourism (Borges, Eusébio & Carvalho, 2014), but no specific studies have been identified that address their specific role in the context of destination governance in Portugal.
