Economics are working on recommendations for tourism development in Arctic regions
Specialists of the Institute of Economics KarRC RAS have worked out an original methodology for studying domestic and inbound international tourism in the Russian Arctic. According to the results of the study, the most “touristy” Arctic regions are the Murmansk Region and the Republic of Karelia. The most challenging situation is in the Nenets Autonomous District and Yakutia. The new approach made it possible to assess the situation in ten northern regions and propose specific measures for them to develop tourism.
