SUMMARY:

The intensification of crisis and uncertainty scenarios in the 20th and 21st centuries, generated by changes in global and local climate patterns, has had different repercussions on natural systems and life in society. As a phenomenon of great social and economic significance, tourism has been positioned as a contributor to and vulnerable to climate change, which requires the introduction of measures to mitigate and adapt to the various effects of climate change. This thesis project reflects the paradigmatic visions of sustainability and resilience in the context of tourism practiced in coastal regions, which are notoriously attractive environments from the point of view of tourist visitation, while at the same time they are increasingly susceptible to the direct effects of the changes caused by global warming. To this end, the central objective of this proposal is to understand how sustainability and resilience are configured in the planning and management of coastal tourism in the face of the effects and vulnerabilities brought about by climate change, based on the applied scenario of the municipality of Joao Pessoa-PB, located in northeastern Brazil. The study is based on the hypothesis that changes in global and local climate dynamics have affected the tourism systems of coastal cities, such as the capitals of the Northeast and Joao Pessoa in particular, leaving them vulnerable to climate change. The study is guided by the hypothesis that changes in global and local climate dynamics have affected the tourism systems of coastal cities, such as the capitals of the Northeast and Joao Pessoa in particular, leaving them vulnerable and less resilient, and that, despite this, the implications potentially generated (increased coastal erosion, increased frequency, intensity and magnitude of coastal flooding, changes in sedimentary processes, among others, AdaptaClima, 2023), have been neglected by the public and private management of local tourism. The design of the methodological proposal of the research involves the assumptions of qualitative research, imbued with the paradigmatic vision of the general theory of systems and complexity theory, in which a literature review will be used, through database research, and methods such as documentary and content analysis, consultation with experts and in-depth interviews with representatives of the local tourism system. The results are expected to be the characterization of global and regional climate scenarios, the identification of the main vulnerabilities of coastal tourist destinations to climate change and the development of a theoretical framework that offers conceptual and applied support for achieving sustainability and resilience in tourism practiced in coastal tourist destinations.
