Outline of Final Research Achievements

This research aims to conduct a multi-faceted analysis of the effectiveness of certifications that validate the sustainability of tourism businesses and destinations based on the global sustainable tourism standard. It has employed a mixed-methods research design in comprehensively analyzing the validity of certifications from the four perspectives of tourism businesses, destinations, tourists, and destination management organizations. It has investigated whether the sustainable tourism certifications have contributed to improving the sustainability of tourism businesses and destinations by probing the factors that create demand for sustainable tourism on the one hand and by analyzing the effectiveness of certifications with sustainability indicators on the other hand on one extensive conceptual framework. The ultimate goal of this research is to attempt to present a model of sustainable tourism that can be applied to tourism businesses and destinations in Japan.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

日本では持続型観光の認証制度に関する体系的研究は未だ十分になされていないのが現状である。そうした状況を踏まえ、本研究では、観光のステークホルダーである、観光者、観光事業者、地域住民、さらに観光地域づくり法人が、こうした認証制度をどのように「認知」し、「評価」したうえで、実際にどのような「行動」すなわち認証を取得する、あるいは認証を受けた商品や目的地を好んで選択するなどの行動をしたのかといった問いについて検証を試みた。その意味で、国際認証の有効性について多面的な分析を行った本研究は、今後国内でも国際認証の活用を促進するか否かの政策的な課題に取り組むための基本的な枠組みを提供できたと言える。
