Abstract

The article reveals the essence of inclusive tourism as a new direction of the tourism sector, for the introduction of which in the regions of Ukraine, it is necessary to thoroughly study the world experience, compare the real possibilities of the natural resource and tourist and recreational potential, as well as the level of development of the sectoral infrastructure of the region, which is related to the implementation process. programs for the development of inclusive tourism. As an example of European experience in creating an inclusive environment, the region of Spanish Catalonia was considered, which has similar features to the Black Sea region of Ukraine: climatic and natural resources, the presence of a coastline with beaches for recreation and a variety of leisure activities, a wide range of tourist services and offers for all tourists , including for people with inclusion and people with disabilities. Provides a comprehensive description of the inclusive environment of the city of Barcelona - the center of Catalonia, which is considered the most suitable for tourists with inclusion (people with disabilities): transport infrastructure, information centers for the provision of various services and information, accessible Internet sites, availability of special transport, adapted hotel rooms and points food, availability of tourist locations, etc.). The attention is focused on Catalonia, as a region where there is already an established mechanism for providing tourist services to inclusive tourists, but as a rule to people with disabilities. Therefore, the question arises of involving all categories of inclusive tourists, including representatives of socially vulnerable segments of the population, including pensioners. This will make it possible to equalize the rights of all citizens to rest and receive social and cultural benefits. From the point of view of economic efficiency, the process of increasing the number of tourists will be natural. This step will expand the range of travel services, increase the number of jobs and solve the problem of socializing people with inclusion. The general characteristics of the resource and infrastructural component of the Black Sea region made it possible to assess the region's capabilities, identify problems and predict the strategy of introducing inclusive tourism in the future in this region of Ukraine.
