1.3 Sustainability criterias for tourism

It is very hard to agree upon a definition regarding sustainable tourism. As a result of many efforts to develope one worldwide langyage about sustainability in tourism,The Global Sustainable Tourism Council (GCTC), set some criterias egarding social, environmental,economic and cultural impacts of tourism. The criterias are devided in four groups:

  • Sustainable management;

  • Socioeconomic impacts;

  • Cultural impacts;

  • Environmental impacts (including consumption of resources, reducing pollution, and conserving biodiversity and landscapes);
