| 2338 | | 2022 | The COVID-19 pandemic is catalysing changes in consumer demands as well as
necessitating a paradigm shift for research on tourist behaviour and decision making.
Demand is intensifying for safe spaces where social distancing is possible. The large
group movement of people, and therefore the phenomenon of ‘mass tourism’, has
been severely compromised as it imposes great health risks with travellers
vulnerable to health hazards and points to opportunities in alternative niche forms of
tourism. As a result of risk perceptions surrounding COVID-19, the tourism sector is
projected to see an expansion in various forms of special interest or ‘niche travel’
which is driven primarily by the confidence of travelling in smaller groups and a less
risk-prone environment Arguably in the ‘new normal’ of a post-COVID-19 world
consumers re-orient away from mass tourism experiences and instead search out
what are termed as ‘niche tourism’ products and experiences. South Africa's diverse
landscapes, rich natural and cultural heritage, and traditional knowledge can lay a
breeding ground for the promotion of alternative tourism within the country. Indeed,
niche tourism can play an ever more vital role in South Africa and is an opportunity to
investigate tourism offerings in which smaller-scale, controlled and operated niche
products can be established to satisfy the changing demands and needs of
consumers. The pandemic further underlines the importance of developing
interventions that are targeted to the requirements of specific niches. Research is
therefore necessary to inform interventions that should consider the changing
supply-demand situations of particular niches during and post COVID-19. Within the
competitive world of tourism similarity is the enemy and niche products are a way to
escape sameness. This points to the necessity for investigating supply and demand
issues around different forms of niche tourism. | University of Johannesburg | Report | Tourism Sector Demand and Supply | N4FUYHAX2DSF-245590710-101 | https://tkp.tourism.gov.za/ResearchRepo/SeminarDocs/Stimulating%20sector%20demand%20and%20supply%20through%20niche%20tourism%20development-%20the%20case%20of%20rural%20tourism%20in%20selected%20provinces.pdf?csf=1&e=2QnchY | | Presentation | | | | | | | | 2022/06/20 10:00:07 | FINAL REPORT STIMULATING SECTOR DEMAND AND SUPPLY THROUGH NICHE TOURISM DEVELOPMENT: THE CASE OF RURAL TOURISM IN SELECTED PROVINCES ii EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The COVID-19 | 54 | https://tkp.tourism.gov.za/ResearchRepo/Shared Documents/Forms/AllItems.aspx | pdf | False | pdf | | | |

| 2355 | | 2022 | The report provides the context of the study, stipulating the aim, objectives and research
questions. In relation to the rationale and purpose of the research, the importance of
domestic tourism globally and in South Africa specifically is highlighted. Furthermore,
domestic tourism’s role in the tourism sector’s recovery post the devastating impacts of
the COVID-19 pandemic is underscored. The theoretical/ conceptual framework that
informs the research is the sustainable tourism development approach, embedded in an
ecosystem-based operational model, that permits an examination of complex systems
and phenomena (such as tourism) that have multi-dimensional aspects and impacts
influenced by environmental, political, economic, and social factors. | University of KwaZulu-Natal | Report | Revolutionising Domestic Tourism | N4FUYHAX2DSF-245590710-102 | https://tkp.tourism.gov.za/ResearchRepo/SeminarDocs/UKZN%20Re-examining%20perspective%20on%20recovery%20of%20South%20Africa%27s%20domestic%20Tourism%20ina%20COVID19%20environment.pdf?csf=1&e=h6aOZk | | Presentation | | | | | | | | 2022/06/24 13:02:55 | Resilience: the ability/ capacity to adapt to changes as well as recover from or deal with challenges, difficulties and risks Sustainability: is a complex phenomenon of engaging in | 40 | https://tkp.tourism.gov.za/ResearchRepo/Shared Documents/Forms/AllItems.aspx | pdf | False | pdf | | | |

| 2544 | | 2019 | The aim of the study is two-fold: i. to identify and analyse global shifts as well as tourism specific megatrends that impact the tourism sector at a global, regional and local level, from both the demand and supply side of the sector; ii. to develop a framework that will enable the sector to proactively respond to challenges and capitalise on opportunities for future development of sustainable tourism products and services over time. The study is conducted over two phases, the first phase (conducted in the period 2018/2019) concentrates on identifying megatrends that affect tourism and assesses the impact of these trends, particularly as they relate to the South African tourism industry. This report is based on the outcomes of the first phase of the study. The second phase (to begin in 2019/2020) will focus on developing a framework that will enable the sector to proactively and consistently respond to challenges and capitalise on opportunities over time. | University of Pretoria | Report | Destination Development | N4FUYHAX2DSF-245590710-10 | | https://tkp.tourism.gov.za/ResearchRepo/SeminarDocs/An%20Assessment%20of%20the%20Impact%20of%20Megatrends%20in%20the%20Tourism%20Sector.pptx?csf=1&e=Gtxhwq | | Presentation | | | | | | | 2020/06/02 15:04:07 | An assessment of the impact of mega trends in the tourism sector SOCIAL TRENDS 27 10.1 Overview 27 10.2 Drivers of change 30 ADDENDUM D: Follow up email to | 17 | https://tkp.tourism.gov.za/ResearchRepo/Shared Documents/Forms/AllItems.aspx | pdf | False | pdf | | | |
