Co-Creating Tourism Research

Carina Ren is Associate Professor at the Department of Culture and Global Studies at Aalborg University.

Her research often takes place in research collaborations with tourism organisations and industry, citizens and students. Gunnar Thór Jóhannesson is Professor at the Department of Geography and Tourism, University of Iceland. His recent research has been on destination dynamics and place making with a focus on the entanglement of nature and culture.
