Abstract

Proactive, inclusive, and ethical tourism requires good governance and is a crucial component of sustainable tourism development. This paper addresses this literature vacuum and provides a sustainable tourism governance paradigm. The PRISMA method is applied to choosing a suitable paper for the literature review. Taylor & Francis, Sage Publication, Science Direct, and Google Scholar provide four literature selections. The study proposes sustainable tourist governance improvements. The framework has three layers: destination management, stakeholder interaction, and adaptability to pressure and changes. This study advances sustainable tourism governance initiative research.
