This is the handbook to show you how to use this DestiNet Portal Site as an on-line toolkit to set up and manage Tourism Knowledge & Innovation Communities (Tourism KICs). KICs are built by mapping, networking and clustering of academic, business and administrative stakeholders in a systematic European-wide knowledge transfer and support process, focused on improving workforce, SME and regional competitiveness.
The DestiNet Tourism Knowledge & Innovation Community Toolkit in this handbook has been developed for professional use by initiators and coordination bodies to quickly establish online tourism knowledge networking structures and processes. This handbook will take you though the basics of using the DestiNet Portal for Sustainable & Responsible Tourism as an online toolkit to set up a Knowledge & Innovaton Community.
