    Although major advances have been made in terms of measuring sustainability in tourism, it could be said that there is still a lack of available and harmonised information in a Mediterranean level, especially on a coastal scale, that could provide valuable inputs for planning and management practices and the design of appropriate policies towards a more responsible and sustainable tourism model. The incorporation of quantitative and qualitative data in tourism planning is essential in order to understand coastal territories, set the vision for tourism development and implement tourism strategies at all levels and scales. The methods for measuring tourism sustainability are numerous and usually include the active participation of relevant stakeholders, thus, leading to an integrated approach of coastal and maritime areas.

    This panel centres on the benefits that measuring tools can bring to the tourism destinations, specifically in the development and use of sustainable tourism indicators to inform policy. Often indicators have been used to raise awareness about sustainability issues and gain consensus about tourism impacts, but not to promote a better governance or to introduce sustainability as a priority for actual policies. This round table will discuss about how to use tourism sustainability measurements to promote better tourism policies.
