Unquestionably, Europe’s current travelling
model goes hand in hand with other sectors of the economy such as
transport, business, healthcare, commerce, energy, industry, urban
and regional development, safety, environment, and social cohesion,
inter alia. Recent trends in this services industry require that
projects incorporate strong sustainable development features whereby
they may generate their own growth momentum and thereby become
value-adding features of a social, cultural, economic, and
ecological nature. Therefore, we can steer a tourism project’s
strategic sustainable development potential into the following areas
of intervention:
|
1
|
Sustainable urban and regional
development |
|
2
|
Offer of innovative features in those
services which best cater for international demand and thereby
feature the highest growth potential |
|
3
|
Skills training/certification
|
|
4
|
Environment/Nature |
|
5
|
Launch of novel, innovative structural
products capable of generating a drag effect on the domestic
and/or regional economy |
|
6
|
Development of a significant web of
satellite services capable of sustaining and diversifying a
range of service offerings that go hand in hand with existing
products and new products to be developed. |
Tourism plays an increasingly important role
in the economy, thereby raising the possibility of again becoming a
key driver of the global economy. To that effect, it is vital that
the strategic plan to develop tourism in Portugal be endowed with an
effective restructuring ability that translates into adequate
intervention on the key drivers of strategic development, by namely:
|
1
|
Setting out medium to long-tem domestic
goals; |
|
2
|
Defining organisational models,
macro-structures, and strategies; |
|
3
|
Setting up practical and effective
Implementation models; |
