Article: Women's empowerment in tourism: a bibliometric approach Journal: Progress in Industrial Ecology, An International Journal (PIE) 2024 Vol.17 No.1/2 pp.61 - 73 Abstract: The empowerment of women in tourism aims to understand and promote their participation, decision-making, and address challenges such as discrimination and leisure. However, due to conceptual limitations, the objective is to examine research trends in women's empowerment in tourism. A bibliometric analysis is proposed to study scientific publications on the topic, based on the PRISMA statement. As far as the keyword analysis is concerned, the thematic evolution of the scientific literature on the empowerment of women in tourism reflects the change between the first studies, which mainly studied leisure, and the studies of recent years, which consider tourism based on community and work. Finally, the keywords that are on the decline within the scientific body of the subject are development and gender equality, while the emerging terms are education, community-based tourism and tourism development.
