Abstract

This paper provides an overview of the current state of academic research in event-tourism and its impact on the achievement of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UNSDGs). Through a systematic review and bibliometric analysis of 159 articles, this study reveals a moderate alignment between the literature on sustainable event tourism and the UN SDGs. However, certain SDGs, such as No Poverty, Zero Hunger, and Gender Equality, have limited research attention in this context. This study also sheds light on under-researched stakeholders including sponsors, associations, and academic institutions. Drawing on the theory of change proposed by the UN Development Group and stakeholder analysis, the findings presented in this study serve as a bridge between theoretical frameworks and real-world applications. This study provides tangible solutions and strategies for aligning event-tourism practices with the principles and targets outlined in the UN SDGs.

连接理论与实践：考察活动旅游研究如何与联合国可持续发展目标保持一致

本文概述了事件旅游的学术研究现状及其对实现联合国可持续发展目标（UNSDGs）的影响。通过对 159 篇文章进行系统回顾和文献计量分析，本研究揭示了可持续活动旅游文献与联合国可持续发展目标之间的适度一致性。然而，某些可持续发展目标，如消除贫困、零饥饿和性别平等，在这方面的研究关注度有限。本研究还揭示了赞助商、协会和学术机构等研究不足的利益相关者。借鉴联合国发展集团提出的变革理论和利益相关者分析，本研究的结论成为理论框架和现实应用之间的桥梁。本研究提供了切实可行的解决方案和战略，使活动旅游实践与联合国可持续发展目标中概述的原则和目标保持一致。
