accessible tourism, disabled persons, inclusionAbstract
This study aimed to identify patterns and trends in accessibility in tourism, based on literature in the area. To carry out a comprehensive categorization of the state of the art on accessibility in tourism, we carried out a systematic literature review of the qualitative meta-synthesis type, followed by content analysis. There was a deepening of research in the area, with some gaps: lack of studies on regulations and legislation aimed at people with disabilities (PWD) in tourism; lack of studies on the specific conditions that affect mobility and on the participation of PWD in tourism management positions. The findings point to environmental, personal and health factors that, in balance, can shape the ideal conditions for the enjoyment of accessible tourism, highlighting the need to define and measure accessibility accurately
