Description

Workshop: Research Cafe: Stories and Narratives in Leisure and Tourism.

In this informal and interactive session, we invited researchers to discuss the uses of storytelling, stories and narratives in tourism and leisure practice and research. Stories and narratives play an important role in sensemaking, identity construction and communication. In tourism and leisure contexts, storytelling is used in destination branding, placemaking, and as a tool for creating experiences. Moreover, from a social science perspective, stories and narratives play a role in meaning making, analysing social constructions and research methods. This session aimed to connect tourism and leisure scholars with an interest in stories and narratives from different perspectives and to develop further initiatives around this theme.
