Tourism for the Purpose of Sustainable Development of Zubin Potok and Peć/Peja Municipalities

In recent years, tourism has been an important industry, and one of the fastest growing industries in the world. However, tourism development is conditioned by the quality of the environment, its natural and cultural values and other characteristics. Above all, the degree of conservation and attractiveness of the environment is directly reflected in the opportunities for tourism development in a particular area. Therefore, in addition to the responsibility for economic, social and cultural environment, tourism also carries significant responsibility for the natural environment. Having in mind that tourism is rapidly developing in the municipalities of Zubin Potok and Pec/Peja, the goal of this analysis is to clarify the concept of sustainable and responsible tourism and its importance for sustainable development. In addition to clarifying the concept, this analysis will also cover the presentation of existing tourism potentials and products, local and regional tourism development policies, as well as the impact of tourism development on these municipalities. The analysis was prepared within the project “Sustainable Tourism in the Function of Sustainable Development”, implemented by InTER in cooperation with NGO Marimangat and media partners “Crno beli svet” and TELEGRAFI. The project is financially supported by the Kosovo Foundation for Open Society (KFOS) and it is implemented between 1 July and 15 February 2020. The views and conclusions in this article are the sole responsibility of the author and do not in any way reflect the views of KFOS.
