This course aims to introduce students to the latest trends in tourism communication and equip them with strategies for narrative and social innovation.
This course looks at the evolution of tourist practices and configurations and their institutions over time, and how tourist representations have both accompanied and moulded new audiences in Portugal. This supports a sociological and cultural characterisation of contemporary tourism trends.
