Abstract(s)
O turismo é um setor em franco crescimento a nível nacional, mas também a nível global. Nas últimas décadas tem-se assistido a um crescimento exponencial tanto do lado da procura, com o aumento de chegadas de turistas, nacionais e internacionais, aos vários destinos, como do lado da oferta, com mais atrações, serviços turísticos, alojamentos turísticos e espaços de hotelaria e restauração. O Porto não é exceção, cada vez mais a cidade é vista e procurada como destino turístico para vários portugueses e estrangeiros. Este crescimento levou ao surgimento de muitas mudanças positivas, mas também muitas negativas. Por conseguinte, o presente estudo visa compreender de que forma os impactos (negativos) do turismo vão afetar os residentes do destino turístico. Mais concretamente, pretende-se entender de que forma é que as perceções dos residentes da freguesia da Sé, em relação ao turismo, vão afetar a sua qualidade de vida.
A metodologia utilizada recorre ao estudo de caso, onde se realiza a abordagem quantitativa, tendo por base a aplicação de inquéritos sobre as perceções dos residentes e os impactos sentidos na sua qualidade de vida. Os resultados obtidos através das respostas dos 234 residentes mostram que 45% dos inquiridos sente que o turismo afeta os itens apresentados, que 72% dos inquiridos estão satisfeitos com as condições do meio envolvente e 81% tem uma boa qualidade de vida.
Posto isto, espera-se que o presente trabalho de investigação possa contribuir para o crescimento da área de investigação do turismo e ajude os gestores, reguladores e organismos turísticos e ainda o setor público e a área social a perceberem melhor as problemáticas relacionadas com o setor do turismo, de forma a serem criadas e desenvolvidas medidas que protejam os habitantes e o património material e imaterial da área em estudo.
The tourism sector is growing, on a national level but also on a global level. In the recent decades there has been an exponential growth both on the demand side, with the increase in tourist arrivals, national and international, to the destinations, and on the supply side, where there is an increasingly number of attractions, tourist services, tourist accommodations and hotel and restaurant services. Porto is no exception, the city is increasingly seen and sought as a tourism destination for several Portuguese people and foreigners. This growth led to the appearance of many positive changes, but also negative ones. Therefore, the present study aims to understand how the (negative) tourism impacts will affect the residents. More specifically, it is intended to understand how the perceptions of Sé residents towards tourism will affect their quality of life. The used methodology relies on a case study, where the quantitative approach is carried out, based on the application of surveys about the residents’ perceptions and the impacts felt in their quality of life. The results obtained through the answers of 234 residents show that 45% of the respondents feel the tourism affects the presented items, that 72% of the respondents are satisfied with the conditions of the surrounding environment and 81% have a good quality of life. Therefore, it is expected that the present research work might contribute to the growth of the tourism research and help tourism destinations managers, regulators and organizations, and also the public sector and the social area to understand the tourism sector problematics in a better way, in order to create and develop measures which protect the inhabitants and the material and immaterial heritage of the area under study.
