Towards Green Sport Tourism in Algeria: Assessing the Role of Sustainable Practices

Abstract

The growing global emphasis on sustainability has prompted the sport tourism sector to adopt eco-friendly practices to ensure long-term growth. This study examines the role of sustainable practices in the development of Algeria’s sport tourism sector, assessing their impact on environmental conservation, economic benefits, and community engagement. Through a mixed-methods approach, including stakeholder interviews and case study analysis, the research highlights key challenges and opportunities in integrating green initiatives into Algeria’s sport tourism strategies. Findings suggest that sustainable practices not only enhance the sector’s appeal to eco-conscious travelers but also contribute to Algeria’s broader environmental and economic goals. The study provides recommendations for policymakers and industry stakeholders to foster sustainable sport tourism growth in Algeria.
