O papel do turismo desportivo no desenvolvimento sustentável das áreas costeiras

Atualmente, a rotina sedentária leva a que as pessoas procurem cada vez mais a prática da atividades diferentes, tais como a atividade desportiva, que se torna essencial como fuga a este estilo de vida. O turismo desportivo tem assim crescido nos últimos anos e, por isso, a oferta existente hoje em dia é bastante variada. No entanto, é necessário ter em atenção que o uso dos recursos naturais, muitas vezes na base destas atividades, não deve ser excessivo.

Turismo cultural na ZEPH-Ribeira: possibilidades e limitações

Considering that urban interventions, planned and executed recently at Natal, RN, should put Ribeira - one of the town centers - in the new limits of the expanded center of the city, this work examines the use of this new accessibility for the benefit of the development of an infrastructure to support a type of tourism currently seen as an alternative to diversification into areas dominated by entertainment tourism (the case of Natal). A local with city's traditional cultural facilities and holder of a set built that is a synthesis of the images of the neighborhood, it fears that this increase in the potential for movement and flows of use stimulate speculation and deployment of a bulk type of activity incompatible with the preservation the architectural heritage. Important economy for the city, tourism has been showing a factor propellant processing urban related changes in accessibility. It is argued that cultural tourism, often used in plans and projects of revitalization across the country, may be factor for sustainable development and conserve the assets, and contributes to the process of revitalization of the historic cultural center as Ribeira.

Monitorização e gestão em turismo : uma proposta de dashboard visual

A presente investigação propõe-se a atuar no sector turístico, uma vez que este é bombardeado diariamente por uma quantidade considerável de dados e informações. Atualmente, usufrui-se significativamente mais da tecnologia com a finalidade de promover e vender os produtos/serviços disponíveis no mercado. A par da evolução tecnológica, os utilizadores/clientes conseguem comprar, cada vez mais, à distancia de um clique os produtos turísticos que desejam. No entanto, há um variado leque de aplicações sobre o turismo que permitem entender os gostos e as necessidades dos turistas assim como a sua atitude para com o mesmo. Porém, nem as entidades nem os gestores turísticos usufruem inteligentemente dos dados que lhes são facultados. Estes tendem normalmente a prender-se pelo turismo em Portugal e de que forma é que a sua entidade é apresentada acabando por esquecer que os dados podem e devem ser utilizados para expandir o mercado assim como entender/conhecer potenciais mercados. Deste modo, o fundamento principal desta investigação remete para a criação de uma plataforma infocomunicacional que analise na totalidade os dados obtidos, assim como fornecer as ferramentas pertinentes para que se consiga fazer esta análise, nomeadamente através de uma representação infográfica adequada e estratégias de a comunicar aos stakeholders.. Para tal foi aplicada no âmbito desta dissertação a metodologia investigação/ação, vista como um processo cíclico que para além de incluir simultaneamente estas duas vertentes, vai alternando entre a ação e a reflexão critica sendo sustentada por bases teóricas. A criação do protótipo da plataforma Smart Tourism, resultou num sistema inovador que tenta responder aos indicadores escolhidos no Dashbord e ao problema infocomunicacional, tentando criar as bases necessárias para que as entidades consigam analisar de forma mais integrada/sistematizada e racional a atividade turística. Foi por isso, desenvolvido e avaliado qualitativamente um protótipo de base infocomunicacional visual (dashboard visual) que para além do que para além do que já foi referido, consegue proporcionar a gestão dos produtos, clientes, staff e parceiros, aumentando assim o valor deste sector.

O papel do turismo nos conflitos urbanos da cidade do Natal/RN: a história que ninguém quer contar

La présente étude a comme objectif comprendre la relation entre l implantation et le développement du Tourisme à Natal et les conflits urbains établits entre 2006 et 2010 et publiés par les médias imprimés, élaborant ses impacts dans le quotidien des résidents. Tandis qu une relecture partielle de la méthode régressive-progressive développée par le philosophe français Henri Lefebvre, cherche à recouper du présent, des contradictions qui promeuvent des réactions dans le quotidien de la ville; ainsi qu identifier des moments du passé qui puissent contribuer à sa compréhension. Aujourd hui, nous avons les médias, comme principale source pour observer la perception locale des problèmes causés par l espace conçu, à partir des actions de l État référentes à l activité. Par rapport au passé, ces situations sont recherchées dans des sources secondaires, mettant en évidence le dialogue avec le Relatório Conflitos Urbanos (Rapport Conflits Urbains) à Natal-1976-1986 (ANDRADE et al.,1986), qui présente les conflits existants à des moments qui ont précédé ou ont acompagné le début du développement de l activité au RN, spécialement à Natal. Alors que dans la contribution à la compréhension du rôle du Tourisme dans l apparition de conflits urbains de la ville sont aussi inclues nos coupures vécues, des actions de l État par rapport à la consolidation, ainsi comme pour les conflits qui se sont plus demarqués ou qui ont conduit à la réaction de la population de la ville pendant les périodes analysées. Au final, on cherche à démontrer les limites de la responsabilité de l activité touristique dans l urgence des principaux conflits urbains dans la ville. L analyse des données de la recherche, avec l identification des conflits urbains de Natal et sa relation avec le Tourisme; la présentation des conflits par rapport à la localisation, fréquence et son encadrement dans les catégories de l analyse adoptée; l identification des agents intéressés et la relation entre eux; ont amené à la confirmation de l hypothèse proposée. De cette façon, en prenant en compte les coupures temporelles et spatiales, la source de recherche et la méthodologie adoptées, nous arrivons à la conclusion que l activité touristique à Natal n est pas directement responsable de l apparition des conflits urbains de la ville

O papel dinamizador do turismo no espaço rural: o caso das aldeias da Felgueira e do Trebilhadouro

As áreas rurais têm vindo a sofrer várias transformações ao longo dos tempos. Algumas dessas alterações são a perda de importância da agricultura e o surgimento de modelos de desenvolvimento urbano-industriais que privilegiaram o desenvolvimento das áreas urbanas e negligenciam as áreas rurais. A crescente valorização destes espaços por parte da população essencialmente urbana tem levado a que estas áreas rurais sejam cada vez mais procuradas e que o turismo seja visto como um mecanismo capaz de assegurar o seu desenvolvimento. Neste sentido, o presente estudo procura perceber se o turismo está a ter um papel dinamizador em duas aldeias do município de Vale de Cambra, nomeadamente, a aldeia da Felgueira e a aldeia do Trebilhadouro, bem como dar sugestões para maximizar o potencial do turismo no desenvolvimento das referidas aldeias. Para o efeito, foi realizada uma pesquisa bibliográfica sobre conceitos genéricos de turismo, sobre o desenvolvimento do turismo em espaço rural e de elementos que permitiram uma breve caracterização do município e das aldeias em estudo. Relativamente à metodologia utilizada do estudo empírico, esta consiste numa abordagem qualitativa, tendo sido elaborados três guiões de entrevistas destinados aos residentes, agentes da oferta e entidades locais responsáveis pelo desenvolvimento e gestão do turismo. Os resultados obtidos sugerem que o turismo está a ter um papel dinamizador nas aldeias da Felgueira e do Trebilhadouro. Algumas sugestões são apresentadas para incrementar o potencial do turismo no desenvolvimento destas aldeias.
