Abstract

This study addresses the importance of enhancing the social impact of tourism research through the implementation of a theoretical framework. The article presents the results of a review of the existing literature on the social impact of research. Key aspects for the design of a framework to enhance social impact are identified, including the identification of relevant social problems, the involvement of relevant stakeholders, a multidisciplinary approach, appropriate ethics, effective communication and impact evaluation. A series of interconnected steps are proposed to enhance the social impact of tourism research. The proposed framework seeks to address the current deficiencies in the connection between tourism research and social impact, promoting a participatory and multidisciplinary approach that generates positive change in society. Enhancing the social impact of tourism research is fundamental to maximising its effectiveness and achieving positive change in local communities.
