About EATSA

The Euro-Asia Tourism Studies Association (EATSA) is an international forum for researchers and industry experts to exchange information regarding advances in the state of the art and application of tourism, hospitality and leisure management in the region of Euro-Asia. We are committed to the best practices in Tourism and Hospitality research. This is, to ensure high standards of international cooperation, with the aim to bolster the scientific knowledge in Tourism and Hospitality research.

The members of EATSA should agree to conduct their research, according to the same standards of research integrity, while respecting the laws and sovereignty of the States of all participating parties. In funded international projects, the promotion of good practice and the handling of any potential cases of conflict of interest and/or misconduct, as recommended by the coordinating committee of the OECD Global Science Forum, should be followed.

The EATSA aims are to:

  • Promote research and education in the field of tourism, hospitality and recreation in Asia and Europe, with special focus on the comparative international studies.
    • Promote the dialogue among scholars of all scientific disciplines engaged in the tourism studies, in order to move from the current multi-disciplinary approach to a more integrated and trans-disciplinary approach.
    • Foster closer connections between tourism academia and tourism industry
    • Encourage the exchange of research results, practical experience, and ideas by organising conferences, meetings and developing research networks among members and institutions.
    • Promote a more intensive cooperation between European and Asian scholars in the fields of Tourism, Hospitality and Recreation.
    Disseminate research results through various channels.
