Researchers have delved into the crises faced by tourism destinations from various angles, examining recovery strategies, models for analyzing and developing effective tourism disaster management strategies, economic assessments of policy responses, and the effects on tourism forecasting and processes for a holistic approach to crises and disaster management in both public and private sector organizations.
