Sustainable tourism governance: the case of Vietnam and French Polynesia
Abstract:
Tourism is now one of the pillars of Vietnam's economic development. This industry developed in the course of the 90s in a particular context of openness to the market economy under the control of the Communist Party. Vietnam's tourism strategy, which is now more focused on sustainable tourism, makes it necessary to rethink the mode of governance of this sector. Thus, the case of Hoi An, a cultural site in the center of the country classified as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, illustrates the specificities of sustainable tourism governance.
In French Polynesia, tourism accounts for 77% of the country's own resources. Since the 2008 crisis and the sharp drop in tourist numbers, it has been necessary to rethink the tourism strategy of the destination, which today is part of sustainable tourism. To do this, this overseas collectivity has its own skills enabling it to manage tourism through a specific mode of governance of the sector that has had to be changed.
Whether it's Vietnam or French Polynesia, the governance of sustainable tourism implies fits in the long term, adapting the sharing of tourism expertise to a larger scale of actors, most often local, which is not without problem in terms of the coordination of implemented actions.
Key words: governance, sustainable tourism, Vietnam, French Polynesia
