“…From the professional side, TO and travel agencies are increasingly proposing "sustainable" or "ethical" travel options, and the publication of a number of documents (such as the "Tour Operators' Initiative for Sustainable Tourism Development, 2003") is proof of the changes involving the tourism supply side (François-Lecompte and Prim-Allaz, 2009, 2011. Sustainable tourism has become an "unavoidable formula" of any discourse on tourism (Stock et al, 2003): the concept does not designate a type of tourism, being a condition of tourism development instead.…”

Purpose-The purpose of this paper is to understand Gen Zers' tourism experiences and more specifically, through their tourist practices and their use of social networks. It also explores how Gen Zers apprehends the concept of sustainable tourism. Design/methodology/approach-The authors used a qualitative research approach. The study protocol was conducted in two phases. First, the authors did six semi-directive interviews of young people born between 1995 and 2002. For the second stage of the research, the authors chose the narrative research technique by asking 34 students born between 1995 and 1997 to write a micro story from their travel experience. Findings-Although it is often presented as a narcissistic generation, seeking to put forward their "selves", for example by posting selfies, this study reveals that Generation Z seems to show a great modesty during their tourist experiences. The results also show that sustainable tourism is not a key concept for the young people interviewed. Research limitations/implications-Thus, it would be useful to carry out more interviews and to extend the fields of analysis. While certain rules have been respected in the selection of young respondents, the sample does not necessarily reflect all the dimensions characterizing this complex young generation. Social implications-We know that Generation Y has been exposed to social networks, often without a filter. The results show that Generation Z is much more suspicious and vigilant with regard to social networks and their use. Originality/value-This research used an innovative method. It shows how multidimensional this generation is and opens up many ways of research.

“…Plus expérimenté, plus soucieux de l'environnement, plus spontané et plus versatile, il recherche de l'indépendance et refuse les offres touristiques standardisées au profit d'offre de voyage plus individualisée (Ioannides et Debbage, 1997 ;Urry, 1995). Pour mieux connaître le profil de ce touriste que l'on peut qualifier de touriste durable, des études récentes proposent de dresser une segmentation de cette nouvelle catégorie de touristes (Crouch et al, 2005;Dolnicar, Crouch, et Long, 2008;Dolnicar et Matus, 2008 ;François-Lecompte et Prim-Allaz, 2009). Dans un premier temps, il semble que les touristes durables puissent être définis par des caractéristiques sociodémographiques particulières.…”

“…Dans un premier temps, il semble que les touristes durables puissent être définis par des caractéristiques sociodémographiques particulières. Ainsi, ils sont plutôt jeunes, avec un niveau d'éducation et de revenu plus élevés et sont généralement originaires de pays occidentaux (Dolnicar, Crouch et Long, 2008), mais le sexe et l'âge ne semblent pas être les caractéristiques distinctives les plus pertinentes (Dolnicar, Crouch et Long, 2008 ;François-Lecompte et Prim-Allaz, 2009). Si les caractéristiques sociodémographiques nous en apprennent finalement peu sur le touriste durable, nous savons qu'il se différencie par son comportement lors d'un voyage et par ses motivations (Crouch et al, 2005).…”

International audienceCette recherche exploratoire vise à mieux comprendre ce que recherchent les touristes qui choisissent une forme de voyage durable émergente (l'écotourisme communautaire) et quelles valeurs ils y attribuent. En se basant sur 117 récits de voyages retraçant des expériences d'écotourisme communautaire et en mobilisant le modèle intégrateur de la valeur développé par Aurier, Evrard et N'Goala (2004), nous avons pu faire émerger les dimensions de la valeur les plus importantes pour les touristes qui choisissent de consommer une offre d'écotourisme communautaire. Abstract : This exploratory study aims at understanding what motivates tourists who choose a new form of sustainable tourism (community-based ecotourism) and what values they assign to this consumption. Based on 117 travel stories recounting experiences of community-based ecotourism and mobilizing the integrator value model developed by Aurier, and N'Goala Evrard (2004), we were able to find the most important values for tourist in a community-based ecotourism experience

“…While previous studies have provided a better understanding of perceptions of the environmental dimension of tourist locations (Leroux and Pupion, 2009) and best practice when it comes to sustainability in tourism (Ballantyne et al, 2011; Lee, 2008), research on responsible tourism has paid little attention to the social dimension of tourist activities, focusing instead on the offer of environmental aspects (Davis et al, 2009; Dolnicar, 2010). However, the emergence of consumers who are socially responsible (François-Lecompte and Valette-Florence, 2006) and socially committed (Gonzalez et al, 2009) and of tourists who are mindful of sustainability generally (François-Lecompte and Prim-Allaz, 2009) points to the importance of better understanding how the social concerns of tourists influence their behaviour. More specifically, few authors have explored the link between social engagement and responsible tourist behaviour (Lewis et al, 2013) or the relationship between the latter and satisfaction with the way in which tourism is managed by public authorities (Rigall-I-Torrent, 2008).…”

This is a study of the effect of social engagement on responsible tourist behaviour. We also examine the mediating role of responsible public management of tourism, involvement in responsible tourism and the ecological orientation of tourism. This research is based on an overall sample of 656 respondents. Our research hypotheses are tested using structural equation modelling. The results reveal a direct positive effect of social engagement on responsible behaviour among tourists. Involvement in responsible tourism and satisfaction regarding the responsible public management of tourism have mediating effects on the relationship between social engagement and responsible tourist behaviour. However, an ecological orientation in tourism has no significant mediating effect on this relationship, nor does it have a direct effect on responsible tourist behaviour. We also discuss the theoretical and managerial implications of our findings.
