Outline of Final Research Achievements

The project contributed to significant achievements related to the proposed objectives. In particular, it contributed to the definition of strategic guidelines for wellness tourism development based on endogenous resources, with a particular focus on the region of Hokkaido [Romao, Machino, Nijkamp (2018) Integrative diversification of wellness tourism services in rural areas - An operational framework model applied to East Hokkaido (Japan). Asia Pacific Journal of Tourism Research, 23(7): 734-746]; and for the analysis, discussion and proposal of a governance model for tourism destinations assuming the communal character of most the tourism resources, including an application to wellness tourism in a specific location of Hokkaido [Romao, Machino, Nijkamp, Mayumi (In press) Destination management and sustainable tourism development through the common lens of the Commons, Region]. An application of Game Theory to the analysis of CPR in tourism is under development.
