Chapter Chapter 8 in Responsible Tourism and CSR, 2014, pp 125-129 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract This chapter firstly discusses the main implications of the analysis of reporting systems for responsible tourism and CSR. In particular, it provides tour operators with detailed information on every available scheme and its performance/benefits in order to stimulate their adoption and to support more informed decisions about the system that best responds to their specificities and requirements. The study also enables students and researchers to build or enhance their knowledge about the characteristics and development of the main reporting initiatives available in Europe and to assess the potential of the AHP model for this kind of study. In the second part, future research directions are debated: the opportunity to analyse other reporting systems, developed in other world regions or addressed to other tourism companies (not only to tour operators); the adoption of other criteria for comparing and evaluating systems; the integration of reporting programs with demand-side assessment tools, such as online user-generated contents.
