In Italy, Portugal, and Spain, activists armed with water guns and suitcases took to the streets to protest overtourism, citing rising housing costs and environmental degradation as key concerns.
Jungho Suh, a teaching assistant professor of management at the George Washington University School of Business, can discuss the impact of tourism in these European countries and the driving forces behind these protests. His areas of expertise include service management, environmental, social, and governance reporting in the travel industry, digital platforms in tourism and hospitality, and gastronomy tourism.
