Summary: The transition towards a Circular Economy, that is, towards an economy oriented towards waste elimination, is one of the major vectors for innovation and change in this century, to which the tourism sector is also part. In this context, the aim of this paper is twofold: on the one hand, to expose the principles of application of the Circular Economy to that industry, with particular reference to the new circular business models; and, on the other hand, to present the first advances in this field at the level of a tourist destination in the province of Huelva (Spain). The exploratory study carried out reveals the priorities of tourism companies, in line with certain contributions that exist in the literature. The awareness among business people seems to exist, but collective action is lacking at the destination level to channel it into concrete actions articulated in a plan.

En este contexto, el objetivo de este trabajo es doble: por una parte, exponer los principios de aplicación de la Economía Circular en dicho sector, con singular referencia a los nuevos modelos de negocio circulares; y por otra, presentar los primeros avances en este campo a nivel de un destino turístico en la provincia de Huelva (España). El estudio exploratorio realizado revela las prioridades de los empresarios, que ratifican determinadas apreciaciones puestas de manifiesto en la literatura. La toma de conciencia entre los mismos parece existir, pero se echa en falta una acción colectiva a nivel de destino que la canalice en acciones concretas articuladas en un plan.NMd, Núcleo Multidisciplinar2021-12-23info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdftext/htmlhttps://doi.org/10.23882/rmd.22080https://doi.org/10.23882/rmd.22080[RMd] RevistaMultidisciplinar; Vol. 4 No. 1 (2022): Science, Technology and Society; 119-134[RMd] RevistaMultidisciplinar; Vol. 4 Núm. 1 (2022): Ciencia, tecnología y sociedad; 119-134[RMd] Revue Multidisciplinaire; Vol. 4 No 1 (2022): Science, technologie et société; 119-134[RMd] RevistaMultidisciplinar; Vol. 4 N.º 1 (2022): Ciência, Tecnologia e Sociedade; 119-1342184-549210.23882/V4N1reponame:Repositórios Científicos de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (RCAAP)instname:FCCN, serviços digitais da FCT – Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologiainstacron:RCAAPspahttps://revistamultidisciplinar.com/index.php/oj/article/view/80https://revistamultidisciplinar.com/index.php/oj/article/view/80/90https://revistamultidisciplinar.com/index.php/oj/article/view/80/91Direitos de Autor (c) 2022 Alfonso Vargas-Sánchezinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessVargas-Sánchez, Alfonso2025-04-12T08:13:10Zoai:ojs2.revistamultidisciplinar.com:article/80Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireinfo@rcaap.ptopendoar:https://opendoar.ac.uk/repository/71602025-05-29T06:24:59.667156Repositórios Científicos de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (RCAAP) - FCCN, serviços digitais da FCT – Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologiafalse
