24 students from the faculties of physical geography, social-economic geography and landscape planning took place in the case study, together with an interdisciplinary team of teachers of geography, biology, history, sociology, ecology and sustainable development. Partners from Austria (University of Natural Resources and Life Sciences, BOKU Vienna and IMC FH Krems) and Georgia (Tbilisi State University) participated as well. The students and teachers worked in cooperation with local stakeholders to tackle several research questions focusing on sustainable tourism development of the Meghradsor community. The students came up with a number of scenarios and proposals for potential tourism products. Their aim is to continue supporting and promoting the Meghradsor community in the future.
