CULTURAL ECONOMY AND TOURISM: APPLICABLE METHODS IN MUSEUMSAlicia Orea
Cultural economy provides useful analysis methods for conducting studies on cultural tourism where museums represent one of the biggest tourist attractions. For this reason, it is important to analyze its economic value and the sociocultural impacts perceived by tourists and the local community.
Museum management can use different methods to obtain results and improve decision-making. In order to obtain better results and improve the decision-making process, this research proposes a literature review of Cultural Economy and methodologies in this field of study to determine a model applicable to the study of museums. The Choice Experiments method and the subjective quality indicators can help museums to know precisely the impact of the initiatives and proposals that they develop at any given time and redirect actions considering those elements that are better perceived and / or valued by the customers.
After determining the methods, the case of study was selected: Thyssen-Bornemisza National Museum (Madrid). Related to develop the analysis of this cases of study, first of all, the opinion of customers presented in TripAdvisor was analyzed to assess the different attributes of museums. After, the opinion of experts was considered through as a round-table. After that, two questionnaires will be designed and applied: the first one focused on tourists, and the second one on the local community. Finally, the data obtained will be analyzed and it will be possible to obtain conclusions applicable to the management of these museums that will improve decision- making.

Challenges for the European tourism industry include security, economic competitiveness, technology, and new markets and competition.
International tourism is a major global industry worth over $1 trillion annually. Tourism makes up 6% of global exports and is one of the largest industries in many countries. Europeans are increasingly concerned with sustainability and many destinations and companies are adopting more eco-friendly practices. Surveys show Europeans prefer conventional destinations in their own country or other top European countries like Spain, France, and Italy. Most travel during the summer, though some choose off-peak seasons. Sustainability is becoming an important factor for both consumers and businesses in the tourism industry.
The document outlines the strategy and objectives of a network of European regions for sustainable and competitive tourism. The network aims to:
1) Coordinate regional development and research programs in sustainable tourism.
2) Share information on projects and implement joint activities to increase efficiency.
3) Focus on social dialogue, monitoring/evaluation, and competitiveness through working groups on key themes.
The strategy combines transversal and thematic approaches to develop integrated models for social dialogue, measurement, and exchange on sustainable tourism issues.
This document outlines a proposed project called "Mediterranean Underwater European Programme" that aims to promote sustainable tourism and small businesses in Spain, France, Italy and Greece by developing an underwater cultural heritage tourism route and products.

1) The document evaluates the impact and effectiveness of EU funding for Lithuania's tourism sector from 2007-2013 and proposes priorities for 2014-2020. It finds that funding led to more tourist attractions and jobs created than planned but objectives were not fully achieved due to high project diffusion.
2) 14 most attractive tourist routes and priority tourism products are identified for each region, including cultural, bicycle, water, and winter activities. However, fully integrating objects into tourism and improving cooperation between projects is needed to increase efficiency and impact.
3) For 2014-2020, priorities should include fully renovating cultural heritage sites along key routes to develop tourist centers and attract more visitors in regions with highest potential.

The European Commission will support the strengthening or the creation of platforms – by also using new
technologies – where lessons drawn by good and bad practices can be exchanged and where
collaboration between tourism and other related sectors can be improved. The promotion of best
practices exchange towards sustainable destination management (e.g. addressing the issue of seasonality
and the prolongation of the tourism season) can contribute in a significant way to the competitiveness of
the tourist destinations. These platforms could allow a more specific approach reflecting the territorial
and economic characteristics of destinations”
