EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW

SUSTAINABLE TOURISM SYSTEM

The program was built on the science of tourism and different directions taken by the international system.

The model is based on research, development, execution, monitoring and continuous improvement, aiming at short, medium, and long-term results.

Some standard projects are part of the first phase of program development in Strong Farm communities.

How can the Strong Farm & Rural Shores Destinations program be developed in your community?

Step 1

1. The first step is to research public data online, to understand a little about the communities’ history, economy, culture, and tourism system. This process maps stakeholders in different industries and levels of influence in the community.

Step 2

2. With this information, we direct specific research forms and conduct technical visits to communities to note environmental, socioeconomic, cultural and heritage issues, seeking to know and understand tourism’s market, infrastructure, and superstructure.

Step 3

3. At the end of each technical visit, we invite stakeholders to participate in the Strong Farm & Rural Shores Destinations workshop to present the strategies that the territorial governance of tourism among stakeholders can promote communities of influence and related projects. The workshop encourages the creation of statistics through survey and discussion forms with brainstorming management and question-and-answer techniques.

Step 4

4. The results of the research in public documents, the technical visits and the workshop serve as the basis for the development of the initial technical report, which serves as a guide for the individual planning of the Strong Farm & Rural Shores Destinations program for the community.
