| Abstract: | The European Union (EU) has long emphasized sustainable development as a fundamental
policy goal, particularly within its tourism industry, which accounts for approximately 10% of
the EU’s GDP. This thesis explores the legal frameworks that promote sustainable tourism
development in the EU, analyzing their effectiveness, challenges, and future directions. The
study examines the interplay between sustainability principles and tourism regulation, focusing
on EU treaties, directives, and strategies such as the European Green Deal, the Circular
Economy Action Plan, the European Tourism Indicators System (ETIS) and others.
The research assesses how legal mechanisms influence environmental protection, economic
growth, and social inclusion within the tourism sector. It also investigates the implementation
of EU green policies, analyzing their impact on tourism businesses and local communities. The
study highlights best practices from member states, such as sustainable tourism initiatives in
Slovenia, Spain, and Germany, illustrating the successful integration of environmental and
economic objectives.
Findings indicate that while the EU has made significant progress in promoting sustainable
tourism, regulatory fragmentation, inconsistent enforcement across member states, and
financial constraints hinder full implementation. Recommendations include enhancing
regulatory harmonization, strengthening stakeholder collaboration, and leveraging digital tools
to monitor sustainability performance thus contributing to the broader discourse on balancing
economic growth with environmental responsibility. |
