Recreation & Tourism Research Institute

The RTRI promotes awareness about the vital role research should make in decision making in leisure management.  Faculty in the institute respond to requests from the field and then assemble research teams with a range of expertise to undertake projects. The Institute creates alliances between researchers, practitioners, students and communities that result in:

• enhanced information for decision making

• innovative community initiatives

• increased public awareness 

• educational opportunities

• contributions to public policy debates
