概要	Local communities are the backbone of fair and sustainable tourism. Learning from the experience of the global pandemic, with its border closures and lockdowns, Higgins-Desbiolles and Bigby described a “local turn in tourism”. This “turn” offers multiple possibilities for localising tourism: defining tourism by the local community, local community empowerment, more localised geographies of travel and tourism, localising decision-making to the lowest level (subsidiarity) and the local interrelationships between people, place, ecology and all living things. This panel convenes Australia-based researchers that contributed chapters to the Channel View edited volume The Local Turn in Tourism. In this panel discussion, they will consider case studies of the local turn, consider the possibilities and test the limits of “localising” tourism. They will consider the argument that a localising agenda is essential to ensure long-term sustainability, equity and justice.
