The tourism industry leaves an enormous footprint on the environment, society, and wealth of nations. In addition to these benefits, tourism can damage the climate, natural environment, and life quality of local people. The main aim of the course is to train students on the economic, environmental, and social impact of the modern sustainable tourism discipline. Since tourism plays a significant role in delivering sustainable solutions for people, the planet, prosperity, and peace; students shall discuss the sustainable tourism in the context of SDG Goals 8, 12 and 14 on inclusive and sustainable economic growth, sustainable consumption, and production and the sustainable use of oceans and marine resources, respectively.
