Abstract(s)
O turismo é um dos setores económicos mais importantes a nível mundial e com muito
potencial de crescimento. Incentivar o turismo é uma forma eficiente de promover o
crescimento económico. O objetivo deste estudo é analisar comparativamente a
atratividade dos países lusófonos na área do turismo e o contributo deste setor para o
crescimento económico. Com base no Índice de Competitividade das Viagens e Turismo
elaborado pelo World Economic Forum analisam-se, comparativamente, os fatores de
competitividade de cinco países de língua oficial portuguesa – Angola, Brasil, Cabo Verde,
Moçambique e Portugal e, seguindo a metodologia de Ivanov e Webster (2007), quantificase o contributo do turismo para o crescimento económico. Portugal apresenta uma maior
competitividade pelo ambiente propício ao investimento, política turística e condições de
apoio e infraestruturas, e o Brasil pelos recursos naturais e culturais. Em termos médios,
no período 2010-2018, o contributo do turismo para o crescimento económico foi positivo
em Cabo Verde, Moçambique e Portugal. Os resultados obtidos contribuem para uma
melhor compreensão do turismo nos países lusófonos e evidencia que a afetação de
recursos ao turismo promove o crescimento económico.
Tourism is one of the most important economic sectors in the world and with a lot of growth potential. Encouraging tourism is an efficient way to promote economic growth. This study aims to comparatively analyse the attractiveness of Portuguese-speaking countries in the area of tourism and the contribution of this sector to economic growth. Based on the Travel & Tourism Competitiveness Index, prepared by the World Economic Forum, the factors of competitiveness of five Portuguese-speaking countries – Angola, Brazil, Cape Verde, Mozambique and Portugal - are comparatively analysed and, following the methodology of Ivanov and Webster (2007), the contribution of tourism to economic growth is quantified. Portugal is more competitive due to the environment conducive to investment, tourism policy and enabling conditions, and infrastructure; and Brazil due to natural and cultural resources. On average, in the period 2010-2018, the contribution of tourism to economic growth was positive in Cape Verde, Mozambique and Portugal. The results obtained contribute to a better understanding of tourism in Lusophone countries and show that the allocation of resources to tourism promotes economic growth.
