Location: Home >> Virtual Special Issues >> Achieving SDGs through technological innovations of tourism industry in the age of global transformation
In alignment with the global commitment to sustainable development, this special issue aims to explore the role of technological innovations in advancing the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) within the tourism industry. Tourism is a significant economic sector with considerable potential to contribute to sustainable development, including poverty alleviation, environmental protection, and cultural preservation (Rasoolimanesh et al., 2023). However, achieving these goals requires innovative approaches and technologies that promote sustainability (El Archi et al., 2023). Technological innovations offer significant opportunities for advancing sustainable development goals (Azmat et al., 2023; Rodrigues et al., 2023) . From smart destination management to community empowerment and policy support, the existing literature demonstrates the diverse ways in which technology can contribute to promoting sustainability in tourism. However, further research is needed to explore the long-term impacts and scalability of technological solutions in achieving sustainable development objectives in the tourism sector.
