Dear Colleagues,

Greetings from Korea. (and APOLOGIES FOR CROSS-POSTING) My name is Yongseok Shin, a chief researcher at

Korea Culture Tourism Institute(KCTI) which is an affiliated research institute 
with the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism in South Korea
I am beginning a new research project on the social enterprise in tourism

industry. As some of you may be aware, social enterprise has been introduced

as a means for social service and job generation in goverment policy field.

As such, MCST has been interested government's role in nuturing

this relatively new field in Korea, specially in tourism industry.
As a starting point, I am searching related materials such as policy

report and papers about this topic, but it has not been very successful

I wonder whether colleagues out there around the globe are aware of any examples, case-studies, reports etc. on social enterprise in tourism industry.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Many thanks, in advance, for any assitance you may be able to offer.
Sincerely,

 Yongseok Shin

Dr. Yongseok Shin
