Resumo: | Regional and local tourism destinations’ management is achieving higher levels of importance.The change in destinations management and planning paradigms has been confirming the essential role of local tourism destinations in terms of policy and strategy implementation, as a central point of tourism impacts analysis and in visitors’ attraction. Increasing competitiveness among worldwide destinations demands creative and suitable strategies, in order that competitive advantages are assured. The main tourism competitive factors have been assessed and it was concluded that the existence of information collection and production regarding the industry and destinations sets as an important competitive advantage, as it allows the conception of more rigorous and informed management strategies. Therefore,local and regional Destination Management Organisations must monitor the industry in a systemic and systematic way,so that destinations can remain in a favourable position in global markets. Tourism Observatories play a central role in achieving these goals. This paper seeks to discuss how Regional Tourism Observatories can be structured, what should be its strategy and objectives and its intervention at a technical level. This way, its operations can come in line with the needs of information of tourism stakeholders and the Observatory can be positioned as an instrument supporting destinations and firms’ management process, enhancing their competitiveness. |

A alteração dos paradigmas de gestão e planeamento dos destinos tem vindo a confirmar o papel central do nível local no âmbito da implementação de políticas e estratégias, de avaliação dos impactes do turismo e de atracção de visitantes. A crescente competitividade entre os destinos turísticos a nível global requer estratégias creativas e adequadas, de forma a garantir a existência de vantagens competitivas. Neste estudo, foram avaliados os principais factores de competitividade dos destinos e concluiu-se que a existência de processos de recolha e produção de informação sobre as empresas e os destinos se estabelecem como uma importante vantagem competitiva ao permitirem a concepção de estratégias de gestão mais rigorosas e informadas. As Organizações de Gestão dos Destinos devem, assim, monitorizar a indústria de uma forma sistémica e sistemática, para que estes se mantenham em posições favoráveis no mercado global. Neste contexto, os Observatórios do Turismo desempenham um papel fundamental. Este estudo pretende avaliar de que forma um Observatório Regional do Turismo se pode estruturar, qual deve ser a sua estratégia e definir as suas áreas técnicas de intervenção. Pretende-se que, ao satisfazer as necessidades de informação dos stakeholders do turismo, o Observatório se posicione como um instrumento de apoio ao processo de gestão do destino e das empresas que nele se localizam, promovendo o aumento da sua competitividade.DEGEIT - Universidade de Aveiro2023-07-25T07:56:46Z2010-01-01T00:00:00Z2010-01-01info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10773/38967eng1645-926110.34624/rtd.v1i13/14.13619Brandão, FilipaCosta, Carlosinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2024-02-22T12:16:12Zoai:ria.ua.pt:10773/38967Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-20T03:09:15.783894Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse |

Regional and local tourism destinations’ management is achieving higher levels of importance.The change in destinations management and planning paradigms has been confirming the essential role of local tourism destinations in terms of policy and strategy implementation, as a central point of tourism impacts analysis and in visitors’ attraction. Increasing competitiveness among worldwide destinations demands creative and suitable strategies, in order that competitive advantages are assured. The main tourism competitive factors have been assessed and it was concluded that the existence of information collection and production regarding the industry and destinations sets as an important competitive advantage, as it allows the conception of more rigorous and informed management strategies. Therefore,local and regional Destination Management Organisations must monitor the industry in a systemic and systematic way,so that destinations can remain in a favourable position in global markets.
