Short description of research profile

Framework: Worldwide, tourism growth has been heterogeneous, due to both global and national societal changes that led to modifications in tourists’ profiles and travel patterns, affecting host communities’ quality of life, as well as challenging and pressuring those who work in the sector. Regarding tourists, new markets are emerging as the result of new family typologies, population ageing, emergent economies, mutant values and lifestyles, and the spread of technological changes, which allow new ways of searching touristic products and services.
