heal.abstract
The present thesis observes the issue of tourism with the examination of the case
“accessible tourism” in Greece. The approach "accessible tourism" is so in high demand
due to the fact that at least one
-
fifth of the population will have access issues at le
ast
once in their lifetime.
This approach examines the current situation in Greece and the
touristic phenomenon reflecting the community of People with
Disabilities
(
PwD).
Secondly, it reviews the development
of
accessible tourism
in Greece
(Aristotelis
Naniop
oulos, 2016)
1
and search
for new
trends of tourism through the disabled “eyes
”
and
states a
new context
to
the universal
design
for PwD
. Thirdly, th
is thesis
shows
the
environment
of
Greek legislation
that
rules
the accessible tourism
(Aristotelis
Naniopoulos, 2016)
2
in
Gree
k territory
. Fourthly
t
he aim of this work is to show the
clear and rightly acceptable theoretical framework of the disability phenomenon to be
used as an interpretative key to
expose
tourism data and to help displaced people from
equal participation in the social phenomenon of
tourism.
The paper
offers truly and
direct answers from the PwD living and employed in Greek structures and domes for
Disabled groups.
