dc.description.abstract | Sustainable tourism quality control tools (QCTs) assist the translation of sustainable
tourism tenets into business practice; they facilitate intra-organisational
sustainability progress amongst businesses that voluntarily elect to adopt them.
Their collective use contributes to destination-wide sustainability progress (Black &
Crabtree, 2007; GSTC, 2015). Despite this utility, the attendant scholarly activity
stagnated over the past decade. To advance the field conceptually and empirically,
an updated QCT framework, underpinned by a systematic classification protocol, is
warranted. Through literature review and inductive assessment of the relevant
knowledge, this research proposes a systematic classification protocol to underpin a
QCT framework that concurrently accommodates QCT diversity and illuminates how
each QCT progresses sustainability. The proposed framework is applicable across
diverse destination contexts, ultimately fostering informed selection of a customised
―QCT mix‖ that optimally progresses the practical application of sustainable tourism
tenets. | |
