Description
Summary:This Tourism and Management Studies Special Issue on Creative Tourism was born within the scope of a quite original project: CREATOUR – Creative Tourism Destination Development in Small Cities and Rural Areas. This project is the first action-research project in Portugal, whose objectives are to study and stimulate creative tourism initiatives in small places and rural areas. CREATOUR is an incubator and/or demonstration and multidisciplinary research initiative supporting collaborative investigation processes involving five Portuguese research centres working with a range of cultural and/or creative organisations. The project also involves other stakeholders located in small cities across Portugal in the Norte, Centro, Alentejo and Algarve regions.
