L'accès aux vacances pour tous reste un défi majeur. Historiquement organisé pour y répondre, le secteur du tourisme social et solidaire, dans sa grande diversité d'offre et sa large couverture territoriale, a su créer les conditions de son développement et permettre son adaptation permanente aux nouveaux besoins touristiques. Appréhender cette diversité, en mesurer les valeurs ajoutées et l'impact, analyser comment les acteurs investissent aujourd'hui pour répondre aux enjeux de qualité, d'image et d'internationalisation, tels sont les objectifs de ce guide.

"There is evident lineage between the concepts of teaching English as a foreign language (TEFL) and tourism, represented through evocative marketing material, the commoditisation of the TEFL product, teacher motivations and experiences. Yet, to date there has been no recognition of these links within industry or academia. This book introduces the concept of 'TEFL tourism', outlining the scale of the sector and the rapid commercialization of TEFL teaching across the world, locating it as an emerging form of niche tourism. The text outlines the organisation types and geographical locations, emphasizing the commodification of English language teaching. It also outlines the types of TEFL tourists, the complexities of international education, links with various tourism forms and sustainability considerations of the industry. Key features include: - The first book of its kind - Case studies throughout add context to the theoretical presentation of the industry - Presents relevant industry statistics - Addresses sustainability and stakeholders.
