The Role of Destination Marketing Organizations in the United States Sustainable Tourism Development
Executive Summary
The role of Destination Marketing Organizations (DMOs) in promoting sustainable tourism practices across the United States cannot be overemphasized. Sustainable tourism, which encompasses cultural, environmental, social, and economic considerations, has become a critical aspect of DMO operations. Many international DMOs have been successful when it comes to implementing and promoting sustainable tourism. This study provides the roles United States DMOs can play in promoting and implementing sustainable tourism development in the United States. This study provides several important industry and academic implications, including how DMOs can partner with educational institutions to serve as knowledge hubs for training on sustainable practices.
