Research impact assessment has gained more importance over time. Most research impact studies, however, focus on evaluating the effects of sustainable tourism research on the industry whilst neglecting how research is influencing policy- and decision-making. This thesis focuses on the influence of sustainable tourism research on the discourse on tourism mobility, aviation and climate change among Dutch NGO's and action groups. In this case study design semi-structured interviews were conducted with people from different NGO's and action groups in the Netherlands, as well as with a scientist. Furthermore, data was obtained through relevant reports and newspaper articles. The data from these interviews, reports and newspaper articles was then used to identify how, when and why the discourse of the respondents evolved over the past years. Even though sustainable tourism research does not play a significant role in how the discourse of NGO's and action groups changed, it formed important starting points for the discussion on the future of aviation in the Netherlands. STR has been used by NGO's and action groups to strengthen their arguments and has opened up the possibility to share their representation with the public and to critically question the position of the government and other actors in the aviation sector."

In this thesis, a case study on travel industry discourse on climate change, tourism mobility, and aviation in the Netherlands is used to better understand the role of sustainable tourism research in the broader tourism, aviation, and climate change debate. In order to do so, a discourse analysis based on concepts utilized by Duineveld and Van Assche (2011) is executed. A detailed analysis of the process of emergence and solidification is presented in terms of pathways, sites, and techniques of object formation, based on an analysis of interviews with actors in the travel industry, and an analysis of media items. In the rising discussion about mobility, new objects were constructed and played out by the travel industry. In some cases, newly formed objects were presented as facts, based on commissioned results rather than discourses. It was found that sustainable tourism research plays a role in the tourism, mobility, climate change, and aviation debate in the Netherlands. Hereby especially Paul Peeters' PhD role was significant. I argue that studying this process of creating impact is important, since it allows clarification of the process of object formation, which is still an understudied topic. This thesis contributes to a better understanding of how research impact develops, by showing the political dimensions of impact creation, implicating that academia can achieve impact by making use of specified techniques. Furthermore, a better understanding of the world of the travel industry is created, wherefore policymakers obtain a better understanding of this world."

This publication contains the key proceedings and technical report of the Second International Conference on Climate Change and Tourism, held in Davos, Switzerland, 1-3 October 2007. The Davos Declaration and the summary of the conference debates demonstrate a clear commitment of the tourism sector to address climate change issues, and provide concrete recommendations for actions. The extensive technical report included in this publication was commissioned to an international team of experts by the World Tourism Organization (UNWTO), the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) and the World Meteorological Organization (WMO). It provides a synthesis of the state of knowledge about current and future likely impacts of climate change on tourism destinations around the world, possible implications for tourist demand, current levels and trends in GHG emissions from the tourism sector, and an overview of policy and management responses adopted by the key stakeholder groups (international organizations, public administrations, the tourism industry) with respect to adaptation to and mitigation of climate change. This publication is principally aimed at the tourism industry and government organizations at the different levels, who will have the primary responsibility of developing mitigation and adaptation strategies to respond to the challenges that global climate change will bring to the tourism sector. It also constitutes an important tool for international agencies, nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) and financial institutions.

Research related to justice and tourism is at an early stage in tourism studies. Challenges abound due to the complex scope and scale of tourism, and thus the need to transcend disciplinary boundaries to inform a phenomenon that is intricately interwoven with place and people from local to global. The contributors to this book have drawn from diverse knowledge domains including but not limited to sociology, geography, business studies, urban planning and architecture, anthropology, philosophy and management studies, to inform their research. From case-based empirical research to descriptive and theoretical approaches to justice and tourism, they tackle critical issues such as social justice and gender, discrimination and racism, minority and worker rights, indigenous, cultural and heritage justice (including special topics like food sovereignty), while post-humanistic perspectives that call us to attend to non-human others, to climate justice and sustainable futures. A rich array of principles is woven within and between the chapters. The various contributions illustrate the need for continuing collaboration among researchers in the Global North and Global South to enable diverse voices and worldviews to inform the pluralism of justice and tourism, as arises in this book. The chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of the Journal of Sustainable Tourism.
