How can tourism contribute to sustainable development in mountains? This focus issue brings together insights from the European Alps, the Western Himalaya, the Pyrenees, and the Canadian Rockies on efforts to adapt mountain tourism to climate change and to transform the sector for greater sustainability, equity, and resilience. All six focus contributions emphasize the importance of a multifaceted approach that recognizes the close interconnection between climate change, local communities, and governance.
