Development of Cultural Tourism in MaldivesAli Haris
Cultural tourism has the potential to be developed in Maldives to provide socioeconomic benefits. Currently, culture is not a major part of mainstream tourism, which is focused on relaxation. Cultural activities shown to tourists are usually limited to performances by local groups. Developing cultural tourism could help revive local culture, diversify the tourism product for sustainability, manage heritage sites, and generate indirect economic benefits. However, challenges around funding, technical skills, and management need to be addressed for successful cultural tourism development in Maldives.
Tourism has become a global phenomenon due to various developments and factors. Technological developments have made transportation more affordable and accessible, allowing people to travel further and more frequently. Rising incomes and leisure time also increased demand for tourism. Many destinations have invested in infrastructure and promoted their attractions to capitalize on the growing tourism industry. However, tourism is subject to regional fluctuations from disasters, economic or political issues, and disease outbreaks that can negatively impact tourist arrivals in affected areas.

Cross cultural tourism study the case of dubai in use by Siddhartha Mukherjeesiddharthamukherjee35
This document discusses cross-cultural tourism in Dubai, UAE. It notes that cultural differences are especially relevant for the tourism industry, where people from different cultures interact. Dubai has transformed from one of the least developed regions 40 years ago to a top global tourist destination, due to its luxury accommodations and attractions.

Understanding this impact is important for Dubai to successfully plan tourism and achieve its goal of 20 million visitors by 2020. Both positive impacts like cultural exchange and negative impacts like commercialization of culture must be considered in tourism planning to promote sustainable development and minimize cultural harm.
Urban tourism has grown to become a large global industry, contributing over $7 trillion to the global economy annually.

2013 Gold Coast Mobilities and Tourism GovernanceDianne Dredge
The ‘mobilities turn’ provides an evocative lens to explore the way that movement of people, objects, capital and information transform the physical, social, economic and political characteristics of destinations. As a result, territorial and sedentary understandings of community, individual and collective notions of identity, and the ways a destination can be conceived, are being challenged. This presentation explores the implications of this mobilities turn on tourism planning, policy and governance using cases from Australia. The research highlights the implications of the mobilities turn on destination planning and management, and particularly what it might mean for destination governance.

The document summarizes two research projects conducted by Failte Ireland on sustainability issues in the tourism and hospitality sector in Ireland. The first project reviewed good environmental practices among 250 businesses and identified 14 case studies. It found the sector was undecided on its environmental impact and that improved practices are driven by costs and customers. The second project analyzed tourism and hospitality education programs and found sustainability issues had limited coverage and were addressed at a discretionary level with few dedicated modules. It identified a need for a progressive, tiered approach to teaching sustainability across all programs and levels.
The document summarizes the role and activities of Ireland's Higher Education Authority (HEA). It discusses Irish higher education systems, tourism and hospitality courses, HEA funding streams including competitive funding programs, and European Union research funding opportunities.
The document discusses organization studies in tourism and hospitality.

A variety of methods have been used to examine hospitality organizations as cultures, managers and leaders, and different types of operative work. However, certain areas remain under-researched, such as back-of-house work and the diversity of environments and jobs within the industries. Maintaining relevance while conducting high-quality critical work presents ongoing challenges to researchers.

The document discusses several key accounting issues in hotels that impact profitability. It summarizes several studies that examined why some similarly situated hotels are more profitable than others. The studies found that the more profitable hotels generated 46% higher profits through a combination of 5% higher revenues and 7.3% lower costs.
