CinTurs and the CinTurs PhD Network are pleased to announce a new partnership with YouCanToo Community, a free, global peer-to-peer mentorship and networking platform dedicated to supporting women in academia and research.

A key focus of this collaboration is the Mentorship Network for Women in Academia, which helps women navigate academic careers, explore international opportunities, and overcome challenges related to academic mobility and access to professional networks.

🌍 Beyond the Scenic View: Rethinking Destination Transformation and Inclusive Wellbeing

October 7, CinTurs hosted the seminar “Beyond the Scenic View: Reimagining Destination Transformation through Eudaimonic and Hedonic Tourism Consumption for Inclusive Wellbeing”, featuring Nelson Matos, Bernardete Sequeira, and Ana Bender, from the University of Algarve, and Miguel Sánchez Jiménez, from the University of Cádiz.

The session brought together different perspectives on how tourism can contribute to destination transformation and create value for visitors, residents, and local communities.

💡 One of the key messages from the seminar was:
“Transformation does not reside solely in what individuals feel, but also in the equity, sustainability, and inclusion that the destination structurally provides.”

This message highlights an important idea: meaningful destination transformation goes beyond individual visitor experiences. It also depends on how destinations promote equity, sustainability, and inclusion, creating the conditions for broader and more lasting wellbeing.

We would also like to thank the European University of the Seas (SEA-EU) project for its support in making this event possible, under the Partnerships for Excellence initiative (Grant Agreement No. 101089757 – SEA-EU 2.0).
