Outline of Research at the Start |
Tourists are often found to be inadequately informed about hazards and warning systems, and the risk those hazards pose. This lack of knowledge/awareness is linked to the fact that providing this information to tourists may strongly influence their risk perception and tourism suppliers fear that it would undermine their business. Research on such topic is requested by the literature and currently limited worldwide. This study aims to investigate effective strategies to deliver risk and disaster preparedness information to tourists.

Outline of Annual Research Achievements |
Achievements of the research included a scientific article focused on the promotion and use of tourist oriented built for disaster purpose mobile applications published in the Journal of Hospitality and Tourism Management. The COVID-19 outbreak partially influenced the research activities as we focused on the pandemic and tourists. Thus, another paper, entitled “From epidemics to pandemic: Research suggestions to support tourism-destinations” was submitted to the Journal Tourism Management Perspectives, and has been accepted for publication. Furthermore, two conference papers “Planning holidays during a pandemic: A study on tourist planned behavior,” and “The Role of Foreign Employees in Disaster Risk Communication: The Case of Japanese Ryokan Accommodation” were published in Proceedings of the Japan Society for Tourism Studies, 2020. Another paper, “Post pandemic cross generational travel intentions” is currently under review in Annals of Tourism Research.
