It is very common for tourism policy to be considered as an economic policy, but tourism is much more than that. Tourism has a significant impact on our societies, and it will continue to be one of our top concerns in the future. With the goal of achieving a variety of tourism-related objectives, tourism policies are a set of discourses, decisions, and practices developed by governments in collaboration with private and social actors.
