When we look at too many tourists in one place, we see a common system dynamic experts call the "tragedy of the commons." This means everyone visiting doesn't think they're causing a big problem, but all together, they really hurt the place. To fix this, we need rules to teach tourists to be careful, and maybe even make them pay to visit certain spots. We also need to make sure local people have a say in tourism so it helps them without harming their homes. If everyone, including tourists and locals, works together and cares about the place, we can achieve a resemblance of sustainability. Good stories about a place can help make this happen, showing everyone how to be good visitors.

🤔 "The systemic nature of mass tourism is the tragedy of the commons. If you zoom in, each visitor’s action does not create a noticeable dent. But if you zoom out, all the visitors acting together amplifies the damage. The solution is to educate tourists, enforce laws, and if needed, privatize access to a certain site so that each participant must pay for the direct impact of his/her actions." > Günter Soydanbay, Senior Brand Strategist at Soydanbay Consulting, Belgium We were curious to know if destination branding could inspire positive actions from residents and visitors to champion sustainability. We asked our panel of experts in sustainable tourism as well as from The Place Brand Observer and they shared some very interesting insights.

Overtourism happens when a place gets too popular. Each tourist doesn't think they cause any harm, but together they can ruin the place. This is called the "tragedy of the commons" - everyone uses up a shared resource without realizing it. To fix this, we need rules for tourists that make them careful or pay money, but only with local people agreeing. Locals also need the chance to lead tourism in a way that respects their home while allowing visitors. When their voices and homes are cared about equally by the tourism businesses, everyone can enjoy the place for longer. Smart rules and stories that lead tourists and locals to guard their special place, not ruin it, can stop overtourism so everyone wins.

🤝 "Put the destination community and their stories first and then find the businesses that best fit within that story world and then go find the tourists who want to live and experience those stories. Ask these diverse stakeholders to write down their stories of what matters to them about the destination, what stories they would tell others about the destination, find some common themes across those stories, and build the destination identity around those themes." > Gianna Moscardo, Professor of Business Studies at James Cook University, Australia Agreeing on and communicating a destination’s identity is a careful balancing act when there are multiple stakeholders involved. How should destination managers or place brand specialists deal with such situations when every perspective needs to be considered for building a cohesive destination identity proposition? We asked our panel of experts in sustainable tourism as well as from The Place Brand Observer and they shared some very interesting insights.

week 2: John Ribeiro 🌍 Exploring the Tourism Marketing Environment 🌍 🌿 Gamboa Rainforest Resort: A Marketing Case Study 🌿 In my second class, we dove into key topics shaping the tourism marketing landscape: Intro to Marketing – Understanding how marketing strategies create value. Customer Values & Relationships – Building strong connections that resonate with people. Micro & Macro Environments – How external forces impact the business landscape. Social Responsibility – Creating brands that do good while doing business. Consumers today crave experiences that engage their hearts, minds, and senses. As we explore these elements, it’s clear that meaningful relationships and responsibility are at the core of modern marketing. 🌟 At Gamboa, there’s a blend of tangible products like luxury accommodations, dining, and nature tours, and intangible services such as tranquility, adventure, and unique cultural connections. This case study showed how brands can meet both physical and emotional needs, bringing marketing to life in a real-world context. 🌟 #TourismMarketing #SocialResponsibility #CustomerEngagement #MarketingInsights #LearningJourney
