Summary:

"Recent global crises such as the COVID-19 pandemic have further emphasised the need for improved disaster management within the tourism industry, and with this in mind, the Handbook on Crisis and Disaster Management in Tourism fully addresses the importance of crisis and disaster readiness. This erudite Handbook brings together contributions from both leading tourism practitioners and scholars of a variety of disciplinary backgrounds, ranging from economics to hospitality, to showcase collaborative approaches to destination and business recovery. Taking a global approach to crisis and disaster management research, this comprehensive Handbook uses a wide variety of international case studies from both the Global North and South. Pressing issues, such as climate change and the need for improved communication between the tourism industry and government bodies, are examined through multiple critical lenses from the theoretical to practical. Significantly, chapters explore recent events to illustrate the importance of the global transition to net zero and efficient disaster management and recovery, such as Australian bushfires and growing challenges to Pacific Island tourism. Providing in-depth analyses of disaster management strategies, this Handbook will be an essential resource for students and researchers focusing on tourism management and climate change mitigation. It will additionally be beneficial for tourism industry practitioners seeking to understand practical applications of crisis and disaster management methods"-- Provided by publisher.
