Dear Colleagues and List Members....
Apologies for Cross-Posting
For those interested, I am delighted to announce that The Dark Tourism
Forum website at www.dark-tourism.org.uk has recently been updated with
new links and learning resources.
The site has become the premier international online forum for debate
and research within dark tourism, and has been accessed by over 55,000
people in 77 countries in the past twelve months. The site now has
hundreds of links related to the various subsets of dark tourism,
including slavery-heritage, cemetery tourism, prison tourism,
battlefield tourism and so-called 'Holocaust' tourism....
If you wish to showcase and provide a link to any of your own research
which may have a dark tourism theme, via The Dark Tourism Forum site,
then please feel free to contact me off-list at [log in to unmask]
Very Best Wishes
PHILIP
