“…Some authors state that local cultural traditions and past life events underpin diverse types of capital and shape entrepreneurship in decisive times, as the case of women tourism entrepreneurs during Covid-19 [6]. For example, Morden a small city in Manitoba, Canada, has been lately doing well in diversifying its economy, including hospitality, manufacturing, services and tourism.…”

“…Conflicting perspectives of sustainable tourism subsist [5,6]. Some researchers refer that sustainability is not constantly suitable in tourism because there are too many competing interests that end up developing certain interests over others [6] suggesting that tourism lead to the conservation of social and natural heritage, as the case of the remote regions of Queensland, in Australia, in relation to their tourism service related to dinosaur fossils [7]. Moreover, new small businesses thrived based on local cultural and natural heritage, while feeding local entrepreneurship [6].…”

“…Despite the significance of this issue, several studies do not explicitly mention sustainability goals, favoring the economic development, instead. In this regard, quite a few studies have so far centered on environmental sustainability, in terms of conservation of natural resources [6,28,29] by discussing factors such as the impact of air quality on visitors [29]. Other authors investigated economic implications [30], for example about the potentialities of rural contexts [31].…”

Drive tourism (DT) have become an attractive way of tourist destination for an increasing number of visitors along driving routes. This flow of visitors has made sustainability a major issue that is, the way by which tourism development ensure economic benefits for local communities and preserves local identity, along the route, without compromising the environmental resources. Many studies focused the topic of DT, mainly the analysis of a particular angle, either be economic sustainability, e.g., advantages of the ones related to economic and environment sustainability [e.g., 2,4,5,10], such as the impact of tourists along the route environment. Nevertheless, little attention has been paid to the social consequences of DT in the local entrepreneurial environment and ensuing over enhancing of their cultural representativeness in terms of authenticity. Our aim is to summon these points of view and achieve, through a systematic literature review, a clear and integrative picture of the driving tourism impacts in terms of sustainability along the routes throughout local communities. A systematic literature review was performed using the PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses) methodology. This systematic literature review sought to consolidate knowledge on the subject. In order to illustrate the link between major categories and their corresponding trends, authors used VOSviewer scientific software. The gathering of existing knowledge around the three components of sustainability highlighted the importance of community involvement and collaboration among DT stakeholders to ensure a trade-off between the protection and promotion of DT routes. Opportunities for future studies are suggested.

The aim of this article is to examine whether female tourism entrepreneurs are more interested in climate change than male entrepreneurs are as part of their focus on sustainable entrepreneurial endeavors. A qualitative study of female tourism entrepreneurs is examined that focuses on three main climate change strategies: conservative, compliant, and proactive. The findings suggest that female tourism entrepreneurs are more influenced by their social circle and general interest in environmental issues that lead them to focus on climate change actions. The results of this study will help tourism providers, businesses, government, and the community better understand the role of gender in sustainable tourism entrepreneurship. Climate change is a topic of immense interest in society particularly for those in the tourism industry. Sustainable tourism entrepreneurs often focus on climate change action as a way to compete in the global marketplace and to derive a competitive advantage. Less well understood is the role of gender in sustainable tourism entrepreneurship particularly in terms of perceptions around climate change action.
