Uzbekistan’s Tourism Potential: Prospects for Sustainable Development
Abstract
This article examines international methodologies for attaining sustainable tourist development. The practical applications of sustainable tourism concepts and experiences in the implementation of "green economy" principles in ecotourism are analysed in developed nations such Sweden, Spain, Italy, and the Czech Republic. Sweden prioritises ecological tourism infrastructure and the efficient use of renewable energy sources, whilst Spain and Italy concentrate on dispersing visitor flows, and the Czech Republic has initiated the construction of "green" hotels. The experiences of these nations demonstrate that sustainable tourism enhances both environmental efficiency and the advancement of local economies.
