Abstract
The current study aims to determine how social sustainability and tourism are related, and how social sustainability can benefit all parties involved in the tourism industry. The qualitative study employed a theory-based methodology to ascertain the solutions to the question: How can we establish and preserve an economically sustainable tourism system that contributes favourably to social sustainability? How can we use social resources in the tourism industry without increasing them but instead by fostering their development? How do we ensure that the tourism-related mechanisms that promote social sustainability continue to work? The study came to the conclusion that social sustainability through tourism focuses on the core elements of social sustainability, namely improving infrastructure and working conditions, ensuring that men and women have equal access to job opportunities and security, and establishing more secure supply chains.
