Type: article
Abstract: The purpose of the article is to study the consequences of the impact of natural disasters on tourism to ensure the sustainable development of the tourism sector in the face of natural hazards in different historical periods. Research methods and methodology. In the course of the study, a set of philosophical, general scientific and special methods of scientific knowledge was used: the dialectical method, the method of system-structural analysis, the formal legal method, the historical method, the hermeneutic method, methods of analysis and synthesis. These methods were used, among other things, in formulating conclusions and proposals, taking into account the requirements for certainty, consistency, consistency and validity of judgments within the framework of general theoretical and international legal structures using the conceptual apparatus of the relevant branches of science. Scientific novelty. The scientific research focuses on the fact that tourism, as a business sector, is particularly vulnerable to natural and man-made disasters, which appear as unexpected challenges for the tourism industry and travelers. Each event creates its own challenges for the tourism industry, including the destruction of infrastructure, threats to the safety of travelers, and major changes in tourism demand. The study reveals the interaction between natural disasters and tourism, which is multifaceted, emphasizing that the correct management of these aspects can help ensure the sustainable and safe development of tourism in the face of natural hazards. The results of the study will contribute to the implementation of predictions and the definition of effective measures to reduce economic, social and environmental losses due to natural disasters. Mastering the principles and strategies of tourism business recovery will help to implement effective practices for the fastest possible recovery of tourist regions after crisis situations. The development and implementation of effective strategies will increase the resilience of the tourism sector to natural disasters.
