ICTR

8th International Conference on Tourism Research
24 -  25 April 2025, Jyväskylä, Finland

Hosted by the JAMK University of Applied Science, Jyväskylä, Finland

Welcome to ICTR 2025

Now in its eighth year the International Conference on Tourism Research, has been building upon successful events in Cyprus, Portugal, Jyväskylä and Finland.  The global approach to tourism has changed considerably over the past decades – in part due to low-cost travel and also due to an increased concern about the sustainability of tourism from both cultural and environmental perspectives. Despite some advances being made in the area, topics related to tourism research remain pertinent and are gaining momentum in a changing society. It is thus important to continue to develop research on specific tourism topics, in order to acquire a clearer understanding and to obtain important insights.

This conference is establishing itself at the cutting edge of tourism research and brings together a diverse range of thinkers on the topic, we welcome everyone researching in this area to present their work to the scientific community. ICTR 2025 will be hosted by the JAMK University of Applied Science, Jyväskylä, Finland.
