Dear Tourism/Hospitality researchers! We are great honor to inform you the call for papers: Vietnam Tourism in the 21st Century. The details are as follows *Call for papers* Tourism in ASEAN has been on the rise in the past decades, is predicted to grow further and is a key element of the regional community’s strategic action plan for 2025 (ASEAN Secretariat, 2017; WTTC, 2016). Vietnam is a key contributor to regional tourism growth with increasing numbers of both international and domestic tourists year by year. The country saw almost 15.5 million international tourist arrivals in 2018; this number will likely be surpassed in 2019 due to strong growth rates (VNAT, 2019). Despite the social, cultural and economic importance of tourism in Vietnam, Vietnam tourism has received limited attention by the international academic community. At the same time, studies and perceptions of Asian tourism in general and Vietnamese tourism in particular are often Western-centric and there is a need for more prominent local knowledge creation and sharing (Alneng, 2002; Cohen and Cohen, 2015; Winter, 2009). For these reasons, British University Vietnam (BUV) is pleased to host the international conference on ‘Vietnam tourism in the 21st century’. The conference will take place in Ecopark near Hanoi, Vietnam’s vibrant capital, at BUV’s brand new state-of-the-art campus. We aim to create an inclusive environment where Vietnamese and non-Vietnamese researchers, students and practitioners can discuss practices, opportunities and challenges in relation to Vietnamese travel and tourism. We would also like to specifically encourage undergraduate and postgraduate students to submit their research work. We are now inviting abstract submissions of conceptual, empirical and methodological nature in relation to the broad topic of Vietnamese tourism, including but not limited to the themes listed below: - Tourism planning and development - Festivals and events in Vietnam - Destination marketing and branding - Vietnamese domestic tourism - Vietnamese outbound tourism - Histories of Vietnamese tourism - Pilgrimage and traditional Vietnamese mobilities - Impacts of tourism in Vietnam - Sustainable tourism - Tourism and the Vietnamese diaspora - Special interest tourism - Ontologies and epistemologies in Vietnamese research - Tourism education in Vietnam - Human resources in Vietnam’s tourism industry - Lessons from abroad *Submission guidelines and important dates* Abstracts should be up to 600 words in length, including key references in Harvard style, and written in English. Please also include up to five keywords.
