Aim and Scope

Aim

JELAJAH: Journal of Tourism and Hospitality is an international peer-reviewed journal dedicated to advancing scholarly discussion, critical analysis, and practical innovation in the fields of tourism and hospitality. The journal serves as a multidisciplinary platform for researchers, academics, practitioners, policymakers, and industry professionals to disseminate high-quality research that contributes to the sustainable, inclusive, innovative, and resilient development of tourism and hospitality sectors at local, national, and global levels.

Tourism and hospitality involve interdisciplinary perspectives that connect economics, management, culture, technology, environment, sociology, psychology, public policy, communication, and community development. Therefore, this journal welcomes theoretical, empirical, conceptual, and applied research that addresses emerging challenges, opportunities, and transformations within tourism and hospitality industries.

The journal facilitates studies related to tourism destinations, hospitality businesses, tourist experiences, tourism policy, community participation, digital transformation, cultural preservation, sustainability practices, and consumer behavior. Research focusing on innovative approaches, practical implications, and policy contributions are highly encouraged. Articles that merely describe established concepts without offering theoretical, methodological, or practical contributions will generally not be considered for publication.
