Resumen
El crecimiento del turismo a nivel mundial y los avances tecnológicos han venido permitiendo la inclusión de muchos grupos vulnerables, que antes no eran considerados en el sistema turístico tradicional, como respuesta a ello se encuentra el desarrollo del turismo social en distintas partes del mundo. La presente investigación pretende abordar la importancia de la actividad turística como una herramienta que aporta a la inclusión y mejora de la percepción de la calidad de vida de las Personas Adultas Mayores (PAMs). Por ello, dada la condición de vulnerabilidad económica y social de este grupo, sobre todo en el contexto nacional, el turismo social se presenta como la herramienta idónea para poder atender a las PAMs desde la óptica turística. En efecto, en este estudio se expondrá la relación entre el turismo y los adultos mayores hacia un envejecimiento activo, así como la situación actual del adulto mayor peruano; se mencionará también, como referencia, los casos de países latinoamericanos que vienen desarrollando el turismo social, y como contexto, se mostrará la realidad nacional. Finalmente se ha procedido a construir el perfil del adulto mayor nacional interesado en realizar viajes dentro del Perú, lo que permitirá dar algunas conclusiones y propuestas en beneficio del desarrollo del turismo social en el Perú.
The worldwide growth of tourism and technological advances has been allowing the inclusion of many vulnerable groups, which were not previously considered in the traditional tourism system, a consequence to these events is the growth of social tourism in different parts of the world. The present investigation seeks to approach the importance of the tourist activity as a tool that contributes to the inclusion and improvement of the way the quality of life of the Elderly People (PAMs) is perceived. Therefore, given the condition of economic and social vulnerability of this group, especially in the national context, social tourism is presented as the ideal tool to be able to attend the PAMs from the tourist point of view. In effect, this study will expose the relationship between tourism and the way older adults achieve active aging, as well as the current situation of the Peruvian elderly; the cases of Latin American countries that are developing social tourism will also be mentioned as a reference, and as a context, our national reality will be shown. Finally, we have proceeded to develop the profile of the national elder adult interested in realizing trips within Peru’s territory, which will then allow us to give some conclusions and proposals to benefit the growth of social tourism in Peru.
