PPS Vice President Ethan Kent will be presenting on the topic Creating Sustaining Destinations Through Place-making
Presenter: Sustainable Tourism Lab The Sustainable Tourism Lab is a tourism planning and development project based in the Blackstone Valley of Rhode Island. It focuses on place-based tourism through an education platform concerned with supporting whole communities through creative and innovative sustainable geo-tourism development practices. Though the Blackstone Valley is its primary study area, it is also home to a global network of members seeking to understand and apply new approaches to sustainable tourism.
Place-making Through Tourism Development Place-making views economic development in a whole community context therefore thoughtful economic development takes responsibility for the quality-of-place to be attractive to residents, investors and visitors.
Tourism is a key component to development of a whole community. It should play a crucial role in advancing progress in a community. Whole places are full-of-life, diverse and distinctive in their builtform, natural environment and social networks; empowering of their residents; transit and digitally connected, water and energy efficient; and disaster resilient.
Thoughtful tourism development enhances a place by differentiating it from other places/destinations using its cultural, natural, historical, human, educational and built resources.
