From the 17th<\/sup>-19th<\/sup> September, I had the pleasure of attending the 33rd<\/sup> Nordic Symposium on Tourism and Hospitality<\/a>, hosted by the Centre for Regional and Tourism Research (CRT)<\/a> on the island of Bornholm, Denmark, under the theme \u201cThe transformative power and potential of tourism\u201d.\u00a0 The Nordic Society for Tourism and Hospitality Research (Northors)<\/a>, who organise the annual Nordic symposium, provides a platform for the development of hospitality and tourism in Nordic countries- Denmark, Sweden, Finland, Norway and Iceland, and surrounding areas in a European and global context.<\/p>\n

I presented findings from a public engagement activity on how making souvenirs at the destination can support visitor environmental education, with Drs. Xinguyu (Chloe) Tao and Sam Vettese from the School of Design at Edinburgh Napier University. \u00a0I presented a second paper titled seeking public value in the licensing of Edinburgh\u2019s short term lets from my interdisciplinary work with Dr. Janice McMillan<\/a>, Human Resource Management Group, at Edinburgh Napier University. Both papers were very well received and led to some very engaging conversations about what we truly value in tourism and its transformative potential for destinations, businesses, visitors and individuals. I was able to reconnect with researchers from Denmark and make new connections with participants from Finland, Norway and Scotland!<\/p>\n

\"Professor<\/p>\n

The island setting was significant for the conference \u2013 Anders Wiberg, director of destination Bornholm Forside – Destination Bornholm ApS – vi arbejder for turismen<\/a>) discussed how the island has \u00a0positioned itself as a year-round destination for visitors, capitalising on nature, music and the island\u2019s reputation as Denmark\u2019s leading gastronomy destination.<\/p>\n

The Green Solution House Hotel (GSH)<\/a> which was the conference venue, is a global pioneer of sustainable hotel operations and design, named by The Guardian (UK) as one of the most sustainable hotels in Europe in 2021.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

One of our evening activities involved setting on an island food tour, where we were lucky to sample locally produced drinks and participate in an interactive session with local entrepreneurs on the future of Bornholm as a food destination.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Additionally, Bornholm is a Maker\u2019s Island. It has a vibrant arts and craft scene and is the first place in Europe and first island in the world to be designated World Craft Region, for producing unique handicrafts.<\/p>\n

\"\" \"\"<\/p>\n

Edinburgh Napier Visiting Professor, Greg Richards<\/a>, provided one of the keynote presentations entitled (Transforming Culture In the Curated Countryside) as part of the CROCUS project (www.crocus.europe.eu<\/a>) around the transformation of tourism and experiences in rural areas through the transfer of gentrification processes usually associated with urban development. \u00a0Another highlight of the conference was the panel conversation \u201cEnough with the rhetoric: How can we effectively work with tourism\u2019s growth and challenges in the years to come?\u00a0 considered how the work academics can inform broader discussions around the value of tourism and tourism policy priorities.<\/p>\n

During the gala dinner, we enjoyed local folklore and storytelling accompanied by traditional Danish bagpipe music. The similarity to Scottish bagpipes was hard to miss and much of the island setting, pride in local food, heritage and cultural tradition, also served to remind us, how tourism can transform places and people if managed thoughtfully and with the local community at the driving seat.<\/p>\n
