Urban Tourism: A Call to Action
Our strategic agenda Urban Tourism: A Call to Action aims to deepen the understanding of (transformative) urban tourism.
The Expertise Network Sustainable Urban Tourism is an initiative of Inholland University of Applied Sciences. We want to work together with parties to increase the innovative capacity in the field of Urban Tourism in order to contribute to the transformation of cities.
Within ENSUT, we are addressing the following important and broad question: ‘How can we (re)construct urban tourism in a sustainable and resilient way?’ We believe that Urban Tourism does not stand alone and therefore we work together with educational institutions, governments, businesses and residents, each from different disciplines and fields of expertise. This way, we ensure that tourism really contributes to a city.
Our research results and projects demonstrate how tourism can be used to find a solution to urban issues. Our themes: regenerative placemaking, cultural tourism and smarter solutions play a major role in this. The results are of interest to anyone involved in tourism and leisure activities in a city.
Within ENSUT, we work closely with partners such as educational institutions, municipalities, companies and sectors such as sport, culture and environment. We combine and enrich the knowledge and experience from various professorships and form a rich network of learning communities, knowledge centres and labs. Our network continues to grow every month.
