Description

Description (EN):

The purpose of SusTRIP is to plan and implement a series of research activities which will help the 2 Seas area to further develop an economically successful tourism industry. This new strategic network between tourism and education partners from each country in the zone will enable the project to build on previous studies by each of the partners, each of which is keen to improve and sustain tourism in the region as a whole. SusTRIP will create a lasting legacy via a new Knowledge Platform which will provide long term research support to the partners beyond the duration of the project. Partners will feed the platform with findings on identified tourism products, on measured industry performance, and on the needs of the incoming visitor and the host community.
