Sustainable, Engaging and CREative Tourism as a driver for a better future in rural and remote areas

Descripción del proyecto

Transformar el turismo en pro del desarrollo sostenible

El consumo a menudo eclipsa la conservación. Como tal, el turismo deja a menudo un rastro de problemas ambientales y culturales. Por ello, es crucial redefinir su propósito. Más allá del mero consumo, el turismo encierra el potencial del desarrollo sostenible cuando se alinea con facetas culturales, naturales y experienciales. En este contexto, el proyecto SECreTour, financiado con fondos europeos, se posiciona como una fuerza transformadora que prioriza las necesidades de las comunidades locales para ser pionero en un turismo justo, creativo y sostenible, así como de las comunidades patrimoniales. En concreto, el proyecto aprovechará su potencial para el desarrollo sostenible, preservando al mismo tiempo las identidades locales y la riqueza cultural. Este proyecto innovador revela el poder transformador del turismo para fomentar el crecimiento económico, la conservación cultural y la creación de comunidades.

Objetivo

Tourism is more than travelling and consuming and it has a great potential for sustainable development when it focuses on culture, nature, knowledge, and experiences. Creative Cultural Tourism can be used as a driver for innovation and cooperation and, to counteract its negative impacts, SECreTour will primarily focus on the local communities’ needs, perceptions and expectations. Tourism will be conceived as a tool to complement and diversify the income of the territories and communities, but also as a way of giving visibility and recognition to rural areas and their inhabitants, also promoting the installation and generation of services other than cultural.
By developing a Fair, Creative and Sustainable Tourism (FaCS-Tourism) approach together with Heritage Communities (HC), the SECreTour consortium will assess the sensitivities and affordances of different local realities, needs and types of cultural heritage, visualizing and avoiding touristification and promoting alternative business models. FaCS-Tourism and HC will therefore enable governance and citizen engagement not only for touristic-economic planning, but also for community building and cultural heritage management and protection.
Through a series of pilot cases, the project will demonstrate how cultural heritage can be used as a real driver for sustainable and fair development, promoting at the same time its conservation. Pilots have been carefully chosen to represent a full range of European territories, communities and heritage, including not only rural and agrarian landscapes, but also memory places of local identities, minorities, conflictive dark heritage. Pilots will be a focus for every part of the research as they will enable to test general ideas and observations in local detail and in specific governance contexts, and to facilitate effective communication, cooperation and problem-solving through an interdisciplinary and trans-sectoral approach.
