The workshop invites academics and practitioners from multidisciplinary backgrounds to reflect on tourism and historical remembrance in the context of islands. Questions of interest pertaining to the history of tourism and its impact on local communities, how tourism can harness and promote historical memory, sustainable tourism, and heritage, as well as the impact of over-tourism.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
