7th INTERNATIONAL RURAL TOURISM AND DEVELOPMENT CONGRESS 12. ULUSAL KIRSAL TURİZM KONGRESİ September 22-24, 2023, Tavşanlı / Kütahya - Türkiye
Dear Colleague, The 12th NATIONAL RURAL TOURISM CONGRESS will be held on 22-24 September 2023, under the responsibility of Kütahya Dumlupınar University, with the theme of "Returning from the City to the Rural" (http://www.irtad.gen.tr). As you know, the Covid-19 outbreak has negatively affected academic activities as it has in every field. We have held the Rural Tourism and Development Congress online and hybrid for the last 2 years. In this pandemic process, the value, role and functions of rural areas and rural tourism once again came to the fore. The World Tourism Organization (UNWTO) declared 2020 the year of rural tourism and development worldwide, and rural tourism has become the focus of international tourism. For this reason, the theme of the congress is rural tourism with its human, social, cultural, natural, environmental and all economic dimensions on the basis of sustainability. All these changes create a suitable basis for the structuring of tourism as a permanent sector as a means of rural development today. Likewise, especially in developing countries, it offers serious opportunities for the rural population to have an alternative source of livelihood and for rural-urban integration. The congress will be held on 22-24 September 2023, jointly by Kütahya Dumlupınar University, Akdeniz University, Azerbaijan Tourism and Management University, Silk Road International Tourism University (Uzbekistan), UVAS Business School and Andijan Institute, at Kütahya Dumlupınar University, Tavşanlı Faculty of Applied Sciences Campus ( https://www.dpu.edu.tr/) will be held. It will be evaluated by 2 referees who have been sent to the congress. All academics, students and stakeholders interested in rural tourism in fields such as tourism, business, economy, agriculture, development, informatics, communication, environment, geography, fine arts and gastronomy can apply to the congress. For this purpose, we would like you to upload your abstract (https://antabstract.com/singup.asp?titleID=33&moveID=59). The languages of the congress are English and Turkish, and the presentations can be in "TURKISH or ENGLISH". Of course, we would like to point out that the purpose of IRTAD-2023 is to bring together academics and researchers working in the fields of tourism, industry and economics, to promote science exchange and discussion, and to meet and interact with members of the academic community. You can apply for the paper you have prepared to be published as an article in our journal in the 6th publication year (https://www.turizmvekalkinma.org/). We would like to see you among us at the event of our congress, which has reached its 12th year with your support, to be held in Kütahya. Sincerely,
|
