Leveraging Euro-Mediterranean Experiences to Support Sustainable Tourism Development in Algeria: A Vision in Light of SDAT 2030

توظيف التجارب الأورومتوسطية لدعم التنمية السياحية المستدامة في الجزائر: في ضوء رؤية SDAT 2030

Abstract

This study analyzes Euro-Mediterranean experiences in sustainable tourism development, focusing on Spain, France, and Italy, to extract lessons adaptable to the Algerian context. Findings reveal that these countries adopted multi-level governance, long-term strategic planning, and precise financing and monitoring mechanisms, enabling a shift toward quality-oriented, sustainable tourism models. In Algeria, the SDAT 2030 plan represents an important step toward a national vision for tourism, yet a clear gap remains between theoretical frameworks and practical implementation. The study proposes practical measures to enhance governance, activate sustainability indicators, and develop financing and academic cooperation mechanisms, thereby strengthening Algeria’s capacity to build an integrated and sustainable tourism model
