2.- Framework
The elective subject ‘Responsible Tourism’ belongs to the area of ‘Tourism Planning’,
and it has a clear relation with the subject ‘Tourist resources and products’. As avobe
said, this is an optional subject belonging to the pathway of ‘Tourism Planning’, offered
in the degree.
The programme will provide the student with a theoretical framework about responsible
and sustainable tourism. It will also provide the necessary tools for the students to be
able to apply sustainability criteria to the areas of tourism management in their
professional future.
The course will also analyze the relationship between tourism and sustainable
development in a globalized society. This will lead us to review the changes and trends
that are suffering society in general and tourism in particular in recent decades.
Apart from this theoretical analysis, the course aims to teach students some of the skills
and practices to be used in their future professional development in order to approach
tourism in a much more sustainable way.
In the understanding that students have already acquired appropriate tourism planning
managerial skills during their studies, the course will focus on issues of sustainability
and responsible tourism.
We will also examine the use of tourism as a way to create wealth and fight poverty,
analysing some cases internationally relevant. Furthermore, the relationship between
cooperation and tourism in third-world countries also will be treated along the course.

Bearing in mind present tourism trends, the interest of the course for students is evident,
whatever their field of work: either public or private.
Every day more and more tourists are opting for destinations that promote sustainable
development programs, so sustainable planning may become a strong growing activity
in the coming years.
The private sector is also taking into account the issue of sustainability, so we can see in
the next few years a greater need for specialists in this field.
