内容介绍:Resident sentiment and its ambivalence play important roles in understanding resident well-being and maintaining the social sustainability of tourism development. However, resident sentiment at destinations has not been monitored systematically. The presentation will share an on-going social listening project. A tool using social media data was developed to enable government agencies and businesses to monitor and integrate the opinions of residents and tourists into strategic, communication, and product design decisions. The system's expandability to include data from other destinations, businesses and source markets makes it a beneficial tool for any region or business aspiring to create socially sustainable tourism or enhance their competitiveness.
