Discuss the structure and content of tourism policies

  

Answers


Faith
-Tourism philosophy
An explicit tourism philosophy is an essential foundation on which to develop a coherent policy. In general, a philosophy may be denied as a system for guiding life — a body of principles of conduct, beliefs, or traditions or the broad general principles of a particular subject or field of activity.
Adapting this general definition for present purposes, a tourism philosophy may be needed as a general principle or set of principles that indicates the beliefs and values of members of a society concerning how tourism shall serve the population of a country or region, and that acts as a guide for evaluating the utility of tourism-related activities. It is important to stress the critical role that the values of destination residents exert in determining the context of tourism policy. In effect, the values of residents provide the foundation on which the policy and its various components rest. In the end, tourism policies that do not reect the values of the destination stakeholders, or hosts, will inevitably fail to gain ongoing popular or political support. Policies that do not maintain long-term political support are doomed to failure. The philosophical distinction sometimes made between value-driven and market-driven destinations, while conceptually appealing, is, in practice, somewhat ambiguous. No destination can be competitive unless it succeeds in appealing to pro table segments of the market over the long term. By the same token, no destination can be sustainable unless, while it generates economic rewards, it also succeeds in maintaining the value-driven legitimacy required by a democratic society.

-Tourism visitor
A visitor is any person visiting a country other than in which he has his usual place of residence and in which he spends less than a year, for any reason other than following an occupation remunerated from within the country visited.
A visitor is a traveler taking a trip to a main destination outside his/her usual environment, for less than a year, for any main purpose (business, leisure or other personal purpose) other than to be employed by a resident entity in the country or place visited. These trips taken by visitors qualify as tourism trips. Tourism refers to the activity of visitors.

-Tourism mission
A written declaration of an organization's core purpose and focus that normally remains unchanged over time. Properly crafted mission statements (1) serve as filters to separate what is important from what is not, (2) clearly state which markets will be served and how, and (3) communicate a sense of intended direction to the entire organization.
A mission is different from a vision in that the former is the cause and the latter is the effect; a mission is something to be accomplished whereas a vision is something to be pursued for that accomplishment. Also called company mission, corporate mission, or corporate purpose.

-Tourism objective
A specific result that a person or system aims to achieve within a time frame and with available resources.
In general, objectives are more specific and easier to measure than goals. Objectives are basic tools that underlie all planning and strategic activities. They serve as the basis for creating policy and evaluating performance. Some examples of business objectives include minimizing expenses, expanding internationally, or making a profit.

-Tourism constrains
A thing that limits or restricts something, or your freedom to do something synonym restriction constraints of time/money/space financial/economic/legal/political constraints.
